Honey.

(Final Episode)

Are you shaking?

You must be nervous.

- Hello. - Ms. Jung.

- We're here. - Welcome.

- Welcome. - They're all here.

- Hello. - Welcome.

- Hello. - Hello.

They are my boyfriends.

- What are you saying? - Goodness.

The world has changed a lot.

I can't believe it.

Congratulations.

Welcome.

(One month ago)

I can wait.

I can wait...

until the day you change your mind,

whether it's 10 years or 20 years.

What if no matter how much time has passed,

my mind doesn't change?

What if you wait your entire life,

but my mind doesn't change?

What will you do then?

I never thought that you and I would never end up getting married.

I was sure that if we fell in love again,

we would live a normal but happy life.

After time has passed, and we both have wrinkles...

and gray hair,

I wanted to hold my wife's hand...

and tell her that...

I loved and cherished her deeply.

But...

that is possible even if we don't get married.

You said that...

you have never been so deep in love that your heart raced, right?

If that's the case...

No, it's not.

I love you, Ji Woo.

I've never doubted that.

Of course, I may have been traumatized...

by my past life without my knowing.

Because I remembered the saying that the tie of a married couple...

is like a millennium flower.

Everyone.

Have you heard the saying, "Marriage is like a millennium flower"?

It means that finding a person to marry is as rare as...

a flower that blooms once in 1,000 years.

However,

rather than waiting a millennium for a flower to bloom,

I want to...

cultivate a field full of flowers that I want.

But the person who decided that...

I wanted to cultivate a field full of flowers I want on my own...

is not one of my past lives. It's who I am now.

I loved the fact that...

I could stay unmarried and focus on myself...

and my career.

Does that mean...

you can lose yourself and your career if you get married?

To some extent, yes.

Of course, I might gain a lot of things too.

But I'm not sure if those are things...

that I actually want.

You can find a way to keep everything.

It would be nice to find a way to do that,

but what if I can't?

I don't know why you're drawing a line.

You could just say that...

you'll think about it...

or that you'll consider it.

Let's stop talking about it today.

Hey. When did you get here?

- I need to change my passcode. - What happened?

We heard you ran out in the middle of his proposal.

That's a ring.

What is this? It's not the ring we saw.

It was a couple ring, not an engagement ring?

- Yes. - What a relief.

It's a relief, right?

It is. She was really stressed out because of it.

What he wanted to give me during the launching party was...

this.

Let me see.

This is the lifestyle toon that you drew.

He asked me what I thought about debuting as a webtoon artist.

- Unbelievable. - But I had no idea,

and I overreacted and made a mess of things.

It was easy to be mistaken.

Why do you look so down? Did you guys have a fight?

We didn't fight.

We talked about marriage for the first time.

I was right, wasn't I?

Mr. Hwang wants to get married.

He said he'd wait until I change my mind,

whether it is 10 years or 20 years.

Hyeon Ju. Marriage seems like a big deal, right?

But once you get married, it's not that big of a deal.

That's why everyone gets married, has kids,

and lives like that, don't you think?

I think it's a difference in values.

Min Jung, you valued...

having a family more than building your career.

And Hyeon Ju feels the opposite way.

As for me, I wanted to get married and be a DINK family.

Whereas Yeong Eun wants a kid more than she wants to get married.

That's right. The lifestyle...

that best reflected my values was staying unmarried.

I didn't choose it because I have some grand philosophy or belief.

I don't really like the term "a person who's against marriage".

That makes sense. There isn't a term for those who want to get married.

Right. Is it right to change my lifestyle...

just because the person I love wants to get married?

It's not that I'm uncertain about Ji Woo,

I'm just uncertain about marriage.

There are two main reasons why people choose to get married.

Either they don't want to lose that person,

or they want to be together 365 days a year.

Which one is Mr. Hwang?

It's both.

But I believe that it's possible without getting married.

Then come up with a way.

Can't you guys compromise...

between getting married and not getting married?

("A Novel Marketing Collaboration, Webtoon and Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals")

Thanks to Min Jung, not only is "Straightforward Dating Life"...

getting a lot of clicks but so is the entire platform.

We are consistently getting calls about ads and product placement.

I knew this would happen.

When you all doubted Min Jung's idea,

only Ms. Seo and I trusted her.

Don't you agree?

Aren't you embarrassed?

A little, little bit

My goodness.

Are you aware that the webtoons you're in charge of...

have the worst performance?

I do.

That's why I'm going to ask Min Jung...

for some tips on how to promote my webtoons.

I already prepared an improvement proposal.

I'll tell you during the meeting.

You really are the new trend in marketing.

I think you have to change your position.

You should work in marketing instead of as an office assistant.

Min Jung, can you come see me for a moment?

Of course.

What is it? Is she really going?

You worked so hard.

You even signed Su Bin up for after school classes to work late.

I'm sure you fought a lot with your husband too.

I fought with him once a day.

If I'm busy, my husband should do household chores and watch the kid.

That is true.

Min Jung. What do you think about changing departments?

We're going to make a Sunwoo Webtoon Marketing Team next month.

Really? I would be grateful.

You will also be paid a bonus this month.

A bonus.

That is the most beautiful word I've ever heard.

Should we get together at your place tonight?

Oh, right. Today's Mr. Hwang's birthday, isn't it?

Yes.

What is this? Did you not make plans to meet today?

It's his first birthday since you started dating.

I'm going to. That's why I pushed back all of my meetings today.

Right. Use his birthday as an excuse to make up,

- and talk about that too. - Talk about what?

Living with each other in little steps.

We'll see.

Mr. Park. I would like to visit you at your studio tomorrow morning.

Are you available then?

Is there something wrong?

I have to tell you about the change in your producer-in-charge.

The story is set until episode 50.

When will you be done working on the new characters?

By this week.

Okay. By this week.

- Hyeon Ju. - What?

Can I change my producer-in-charge?

Me? Am I getting fired?

You're going to start publishing your webtoon soon.

I want you to focus on that.

Park Do Gyum. You're all grown up.

You know how to be considerate.

I was already fully grown 10 years ago.

Okay.

Please assign me to someone else.

If I can't get adjusted to it, I'll ask for your help again.

Okay. Fine.

(I have to tell you about the change in your producer-in-charge.)

(September)

It's my birthday,

but she hasn't called.

Please, come in.

This is the expected budget to manage the marketing team.

I heard your webtoon is publishing next week.

It's all thanks to your support.

Don't mention it. I'm excited to see it.

Thank you.

Do you have something else to say?

Today is your birthday.

Oh, right. It's the day I was born. It's my birthday.

But I have too many meetings today,

and it was too hard to make time.

- So... - I'm sure it is.

You've been so busy these days, and your job is important to you.

Pardon?

But I also have an important event today,

so I was going to tell you that I can't meet today.

Oh, is that so?

That's good. I felt bad for no reason.

If it's an important event, you have to go.

Yes, I will attend it.

Please work hard and do your best during your busy meetings.

Okay.

Then, have a nice day.

Yes, I will.

Let's have the meeting regarding the new projects...

that we pushed to next week today.

- What? - What?

Please get ready.

I'm busy, so I'll go first.

- To the restroom? - Yes.

As expected.

I'm not ready for it.

Please reschedule the meeting I had for tonight.

Wasn't the biopharmaceuticals conference tonight?

Right, but you told me that you wouldn't be able to make it,

so I told them that Director Kim Sun Ho would be going.

Are there any internal meetings?

You asked me to keep your entire day empty.

Should I set up a get-together for the secretarial staff?

No, it's okay. You can go.

Ji Woo. Happy birthday.

My gift will arrive tomorrow.

Do Gyum. It's me.

Did you get my message? Happy birthday.

Let's get dinner tonight.

What?

Are you busy?

It's not that. Aren't you meeting Hyeon Ju?

- No, I'm not. - What?

I'll be there by six. Please prepare everything and wait.

Hello? Ji Woo?

What is he asking me to prepare?

Did he not make up with Hyeon Ju yet?

I'm busy today.

- Good job, everyone. - Good job.

Hello?

Hello, this is Paris Bakery.

I'm calling because the cake you ordered is ready.

- Oh, that's right. - Hello?

I'll pick it up in 30 minutes.

Yes, thank you.

Right. It's his birthday, so he shouldn't be alone.

I'll put in the candles.

Hold on.

Why are there four candles?

I'm 36.

I forgot how old you were, so I took a guess.

But this isn't right.

I only have four candles.

Should I go out and get some?

Whether it's 36 or 40,

it's all the same. Just blow them out.

How is it the same?

Being 36 means I'm in my mid-30s, and 40 means I'm in my 40s.

How is it the same?

To me, it's the same. They're both middle-aged men.

Middle-aged men?

Thank you for preparing a cake for my birthday,

but I don't feel good.

I didn't mean that you were a middle-aged man.

I'm just saying the age is.

But age is just a number.

Ji Woo, I was wrong. Don't be mad.

I'm not mad.

Let's only light three candles.

Ji Woo. What are you doing here on a day like this?

You should have dinner at a nice restaurant with Hyeon Ju...

and have a drink with her as well.

I wanted to do that too.

I emptied my schedule and waited,

- but Hyeon Ju rejected me. - What?

What is this? Is he not home yet?

Where did he go?

Where are you?

I'm at your place right now.

Come home soon, so we can have dinner together.

My gosh, Hyeon Ju.

It's your birthday. She should've canceled the meetings.

That's what I'm saying.

I know we got into a fight about the issue with marriage,

and we've been awkward around each other these past few days,

but I had no idea she'd do this.

She must be really mad.

I'm sure she's not.

She might've done that because she wasn't sure what to do.

You guys fought over something that isn't easily resolved.

I don't want to get married right now either.

Hyeon Ju...

might not want to get married right now or ever.

Do Gyum, you're on Hyeon Ju's side, aren't you?

No, what do you mean?

I'm not on anyone's side.

Yes. If I had to choose, I would be on her side.

100 percent.

It's not a simple issue,

but I'll try to give you a simple explanation from my perspective.

You liked and dated Hyeon Ju even though you knew...

she never wanted to get married.

Then...

instead of trying to force her to change,

what if you changed the way you think?

I know it would be hard.

I'm having a lot of thoughts right now.

Okay. You can think later.

But first, make up with Hyeon Ju and have a birthday party.

Hurry.

He's not even checking his messages?

Is she still in a meeting?

I'm in front of your house right now.

I want you to wish me a happy birthday.

You're going to come, right?

(Where are you? I'm at your place right now.)

(Come home soon, so we can have dinner together.)

Gosh.

It's cold now.

I will wait...

one more hour before I leave.

(I'm in front of your house right now.)

(I want you to wish me a happy birthday.)

(You're going to come, right?)

She hasn't read it yet.

There was an error with the free mobile messenger service, KkangTalk,

and many users were inconvenienced because their messages...

didn't get sent, or the receiver got it later.

The KkangTalk server was unstable since this morning,

and messages on the mobile app...

Doesn't she look like she has a temper?

I'm not sure. She doesn't look that bad.

How she looks doesn't reflect how she'll treat her daughter-in-law.

Furthermore, she's the wife of a wealthy family.

Haven't you watched dramas?

A daughter-in-law from a poor family...

doesn't get treated like a human and is always rebuked.

Gosh, that's because it's a drama.

Even if it isn't a drama, think about it reasonably.

They're not just rich. They own Sunwoo Group.

Imagine how ridiculous our family will seem to them.

Hyeon Ju too.

You're right.

You shouldn't get married to someone who's better than you.

I shouldn't have bought Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals' product.

It's two dollars more expensive.

I bought it to help Ji Woo make more money.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't let them get married.

Your leg is heavy.

Then what should we do?

Even if we're not against them,

his family wouldn't just stay still.

I'd feel easy if Ji Woo covers for her,

but how can we trust him for sure?

I'm sure he'll love and cherish her in the beginning.

But how can we be sure...

that he won't get tired and leave her?

Can we trust Ji Woo or not?

If that's the problem,

what if we do this?

A test?

What is this?

Hyeon Ju.

Hyeon Ju!

Hyeon Ju.

Hyeon Ju!

Wake up. Hyeon Ju!

Hyeon Ju. Hyeon Ju, wake up.

Hyeon Ju!

Please wake up. Hyeon Ju!

No. Hyeon Ju. Open your eyes.

I'm sorry, Hyeon Ju.

What took you so long?

Are you okay? Are you really okay?

What's wrong? Did something happen?

My house was on fire.

There wasn't a fire.

The seaweed soup!

Hyeon Ju. No. Hyeon Ju!

Hyeon Ju!

It was seaweed soup an hour ago.

But now it's seaweed fulvescens.

I like seaweed fulvescens.

Plus, it's only 11pm.

We can have my birthday party now.

The cake is fine.

I designed this cake personally.

Is that me?

Isn't he cute?

Yes, because the model is cute.

What are you saying?

I'll let it slide because it's your birthday.

Let's take a photograph.

Should we do that?

1, 2...

Let me see.

- It came out so well. - Wow.

Gosh, I should print it and hang it in my room.

Right. I should blow out the candles.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday dear Chestnut

Happy birthday to you

Make a wish and blow out the candles.

Okay.

Happy birthday. What kind of wish did you make while looking so nice?

What was your wish?

Don't you know you can't say what your wish is?

Fine.

I couldn't prepare a birthday gift.

It was hard to think of one since you already have everything.

Is there anything you want?

I just need you.

Does that mean...

you want me?

No, so...

Do you want to go to your room?

Do you want me to tie your necktie for you?

I'd like that.

You have to line it up like this...

and spin it around.

Is this right?

I knew how to do it.

Oh, no. I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I'll do it.

I'll teach you how to tie a necktie slowly,

so don't worry.

Chestnut.

Yes?

What do you think...

about spending time together like this once in a while?

It's nice to go out on dates,

but we can rest at home and eat delicious meals.

We're busy during the week because of work anyway.

We've never spent the entire day together before.

What if we want to spend more time together?

Then we can extend the time...

that we spend together.

Are you against it?

No, I like it.

I could tell you put a lot of thought into it because of me,

and I don't feel good about that.

You're the most important person to me,

so of course I should put a lot of thought into it.

I want to spend every day,

if possible, all day, with you too.

I thought about the ways...

we could spend every moment together...

even if it's not marriage.

If we both put some thought and effort into it,

don't you think we'll be able to find a good answer?
