[voice on PA] The next bus to arrive is number 791.

Ah, I'm in luck today. Go figure.

[chuckles]

Ah. An empty seat.

All right.

[sighs]

Ooh, got lucky! [chuckles]

[sighs]

-Is this the line? -Yes.

Ah, okay.

Here. Your order's up.

-Ah. Thank you. -It's a long line.

Let's go.

-Oh, thank you. -Drink it later.

-[barista] Next customer. -Oh! Total score! [chuckles]

So, I'd like, um, six iced Americanos.

Yeah, no pimples or wrinkles, huh?

My hair is so thick too.

EPISODE 11

Did you sleep well last night?

Didn't move all night.

Well, I mean, I can tell.

It really shows on your face.

You look like you slept for a week, you know.

-Is my face swollen? -No, I meant you look beautiful.

[playful music playing]

Hmm.

Once the divorce insurance takes off as planned,

I'll sleep like a baby, even on stone.

For sure. It's our biggest issue.

Have we heard from Mr. Kim? Do you know?

Uh, not yet, but, uh, well, no news is good news as they say.

[sighs]

PLUS GENERAL INSURANCE

[clears throat]

-Good morning, ma'am. -[Na-rae] Morning.

Oh, good morning, ma'am.

[Jeon-man chuckles]

Choi Ji-young's new movie's out. Any chance you're free tonight?

-Huh. -Wanna check it out?

I have work to do.

I do too.

-[playful music playing] -[elevator bell dings]

[elevator button beeps]

[automated voice] The doors are closing.

[patron] Oh. Wait. Please hold the door. Hold the door.

Excuse me.

[groans] Wait, could you--

-[automated voice] The doors are closing. -[grunting]

[whispering] Wait…

[Jeon-man] Good morning, sir.

-[Ki-jun] Good day, sir. -Morning, sir.

What's with the coffee, sir?

One for each of you. They're on me.

-Whoa, what's the occasion? -Ooh.

You're usually all about the canteen coffee.

Premium beans like these don't come around every day, just saying.

Thank you for the coffee, sir.

-Did something happen? -Uh, no.

Well, what's up? Did something good happen?

Did you win the lottery or what?

Well, truth be told,

I finally took a decent dump after a whole week!

-[groans] -Hold on, guys, that's not all.

The bus I always miss pulled up just as I arrived.

Plenty of seats. No red lights.

And the café line downstairs was massive,

then suddenly, like a tide going out, it vanished! [imitates whooshing]

[laughs]

Anyhow, today feels great.

[gasps] Oh, God!

Oh, my goodness. Are you okay, Ms. Kang?

-That's a bad sign. -What's wrong with you?

Ms. Kang, here, take this coffee.

There's five cups of coffee. There's four people on the task force.

So this last one obviously belongs to Ms. Jeon.

But Ms. Kang's coffee went flying.

-Your hand. -Your hand.

[grunts]

Why is it that those two start fighting every time they make eye contact?

[bones crack]

-What are they, kids? -I agree.

What do you mean, "I agree?" What is that?

Like, I know.

[Ki-jun, Jeon-man grunting]

-Give it. -That's enough, damn it!

-[Seon-man] Hello there. -[both] Oh, my…

-Oh! -[Dae-bok] Whoa. Goodness.

-What a pleasant surprise to see you both. -Hello.

We didn't want to wait to let you know.

We have made a decision.

[chuckles] Good for you. And it's good to see you.

May I ask you what's the decision that you've made?

-Actually… -We've agreed to divorce peacefully.

["Toccata and Fugue in D minor BWV 565" playing]

Ah.

Ah, I see, yeah.

POLICY TERMINATION AGREEMENT

Thank you for understanding our company's position.

No problem. We're the ones who should be thanking you.

Yeah, he's right. Thanks to you, we got our happily-ever-after.

"Happily-ever-after?"

Yeah.

For each of us.

[somber music playing]

[groans]

[sighs]

The therapy went pretty well today, didn't it?

Mm-hmm. Like a weight's finally been lifted.

[sniffles, yawns]

I'm so exhausted.

You should rest.

Hmm. Yeah, you too.

[Yeo-reum] That's when I realized

we were already living separate lives, and somewhere along the way

we'd gotten used to it.

We just needed time to accept it.

In the end, we chose to go our separate ways so we could live better lives.

Happily ever after.

Right.

Divorce insurance played a big part in helping us make it this far.

What I said about it promoting divorce, I take that back now.

Don't worry about that.

We were so close to bringing out the worst in each other.

[chuckles]

To us, it was like getting a diagnosis before it became too late to find a cure.

Others might be lucky enough to catch it early and fully recover.

-Right? -[chuckles]

Uh, sure, there'll be hurdles for us to overcome,

but they're nothing we can't handle.

-We'd better get going now, I guess. -Right.

Uh, congratulations on your…

happily-ever-after.

[both chuckle]

-[chuckles] -[chuckles]

-Well, guess this is it. Yes. -Oh, right.

-Thank you both. -[Yeo-reum, Seon-man] Likewise.

-Let's go. -Mm-hmm.

[sighs]

[smacks lips]

Um, so, could you help me with something?

Oh, sure. What, uh…

Uh, do you remember that time at the café

when I fell asleep and you were knitting?

-[chuckles] -[chuckles]

I told you I had a piece of knitting back home that I'd like to finish.

Oh, that's right. You said it was green.

[sighs] Right.

So, um…

Well, my sister began it, but didn't finish.

I think it's time I finish it now.

Sounds good. I can show you how.

That'd be great. Let's go.

Ugh.

We have more rejections.

-[clicks tongue] -[phone buzzes]

WIFEY'S FLIGHT ARRIVAL DATE

[comical music playing]

[Dae-bok] She's coming today?

I knew it. Today really is my lucky day.

[chuckles]

[Na-rae] Remember, It's not over until it's truly over.

Let's not get complacent just because we've kept a zero percent divorce rate.

And please handle the two new rejections ASAP.

Yes, ma'am. I can assure you that you're in good hands.

I may not look it now, but, back in the day, I truly was--

A top insurance agent.

I know. I'm aware.

[chuckling] Yeah.

All right. Everyone, the meeting is adjourned.

-[Han-deul, Ah-young] Yes, ma'am. -[Jeon-man] Ms. Jeon.

-Your coffee. -[clears throat]

Ah, I'm cutting down on caffeine.

-Ma'am. -[sighs]

[playful music playing]

Okay, I'll try my best to take care of the rejections, all right?

So let's wrap it up properly. Sound good? Yeah?

-[Ah-young, Ki-jun] Yes, sir. -Okay, good.

[Ki-jun] We'll have to make it work somehow.

they'd never consider divorce, try talking them into it for me.

Yeah, I owe you one.

I better get going now. Always remember to eat on time, okay?

Here we go. One out of the way. How many to go?

SO-JEONG YOU ARRIVE TODAY, RIGHT?

She can't say no. [chuckles]

-Let's see now… -[comical music playing]

He split up with his wife who cheated on him.

Oh. Ju-hyeon?

Well, if it's him… [inhales sharply]

-…only one way to know. -[line ringing]

Hello, Ju-hyeon. [chuckles]

It's me, Dae-bok.

You see, I'm actually working on a new project and--

-[line disconnects] -Hello?

What a bastard.

How's it going, huh?

Me? Yeah, of course I'm still in insurance.

[line disconnects]

Did you hang up?

Hey, Mi-jin.

-Yeah. It's me, Dae-bok. -[line disconnects]

This new insurance is great

-for people like you getting remarried. -[line disconnects]

Hey. It's me, Dae-bok.

-[line disconnects] -Are you there? Hello?

-[line disconnects] -Hello.

Ridiculous. [tuts]

[sighing] I give up.

[grunts]

[phone buzzes]

STRANGER - JUST YOU WAIT. WE'LL HAVE HANWOO TONIGHT

It's our second shot at life,

and we truly believe happiness is waiting for us.

I know we'll really make it work this time. Thank you so very much!

[nostalgic music playing]

I remember you saying divorce

could be its own path to happiness in a way.

And so, after seeing Mr. Kim and Ms. Han's story, I think that's true.

[chuckles] I suppose so.

"And so, the prince and princess got married and, despite all the challenges,

lived happily ever after."

So happily-ever-afters can come in many forms.

Life is still worth living after all.

Hmm?

Oh. Yeah. [chuckles]

We're here.

Whoa, this looks great.

I'm in your hands today, Teacher Kang.

It's absolutely an honor to help, Student Noh.

-Let's go in. -Okay, sure.

[K-pop song playing]

[sucks teeth] Wow. Look at all these colors.

Mm-hmm. But first off, I think you could use a bit of practice.

Right.

Since the piece you'll be finishing off is green…

-Let me see. -Huh. I'd like to go with this color.

If you switch colors, it might look a bit jarring.

As long as I like it, it doesn't matter.

You're a fan of the color red, aren't you?

[chuckles] Good choice.

[Ki-jun] Take the yarn…

-On your left hand. Like this. -Uh-huh.

-Right here? -Yes.

-Are you a bit frustrated? -Yeah.

I guess so. I just feel so helpless with my hands,

it's stressing me out more than it should.

I was the same at first, you know.

But I guess well begun is half done.

-You started. That's half the battle. -Ah…

"Well begun is half done." Right. I love that saying.

-It lifts me up. -[chuckles]

Wind it around…

Oh. I'll help you.

-Slip it through here. -Ah…

Wrap the yarn around once,

then pull it out.

[gasps]

Special training starts now, so focus.

-Yep. Focus. -[chuckles]

-Okay. To this needle… -Slide it in.

-Then pull out. -Pull the needle out…

-Oh! -…then move that stitch over.

-Wow! -[laughs]

[sighs]

[comical music playing]

[chuckles]

I should buy a lottery ticket.

[cackles]

Honey! Honey!

Honey! [chuckles]

Did you have a good trip, huh? You're not leaving again?

Good. No luggage. [chuckles]

Come on. Go get changed. I said we're going out for premium beef.

TV, really? Let's turn it off.

Honey, it's Korean beef!

It's premium! [chuckles]

Do you know what tomorrow is?

Tomorrow?

Hmm, let's see. Isn't it your dad's death anniversary?

It's our wedding anniversary.

What?

It's Lee So-jeong and Na Dae-bok's wedding anniversary tomorrow.

[gasps]

Oh, well then, even more reason to go out for a great dinner! [chuckles]

Come on, let's go.

What's up? Are you angry?

Ugh, I mean, what's so important about an anniversary?

We've been living together for over 20 years. [chuckles]

If it's not that important, then why did you get married?

What?

What do you know about our family? Do you know what grade our kids are in?

When their graduation is? What school they go to?

Or what subjects they like to study? Do you know that at least?

Ugh.

I mean, do I really need to know all that?

Ugh, I come home late every night because of team dinners.

I rush off to the office as soon as I wake up.

If the higher-ups decide to go hiking or something on the weekend,

I have no choice but to tag along. So how am I supposed to know all that?

And you call yourself a husband?

And a father.

Come one, I busted my ass to pay their tuition abroad.

I gave you more than enough money to keep the house running

while I couldn't even eat what I wanted. That's how far I went.

What more do you want from me?

Fine.

I don't expect anything from you either.

So…

APPLICATION ON THE CONFIRMATION OF DIVORCE BY CONSENT

HUSBAND: NA DAE-BOK WIFE: LEE SO-JEONG

Let's get divorced.

[somber music playing]

[sighs]

This again.

Aren't you tired of whining about divorce?

Seriously, do you really think I'm just whining to you?

Either way, the kids will attend college in the States,

-I could just move there as well. -Wait, honey--

My sister and her husband have agreed to help me find a place.

Wait. Are you serious about this?

I've never once said anything I didn't mean, so…

I know how you've worked yourself to the bone to provide for the family.

So there's really no need to drag this out any longer.

It's time we ended this.

-[inhales deeply, sighs] -[door opens, closes]

Okay, good. Have it your way.

Don't come crawling back!

Damn!

Man, I even picked up money off the street for the occasion.

What's this, though?

RIPOLE BITCOIN IS ALL WELL AT HOME?

ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL WITH MONEY!

[sighs]

I knew it. My luck today was too damn good to be real.

[grunts]

And… [exhales]

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

By the way, how did you happen to end up with your sister's unfinished knitting?

[sighs]

Do you ever wonder why I went through three divorces?

[sighs]

[inhales sharply]

It was an ordinary day.

-A nothing-happens kind of day. -[somber music playing]

My sister casually said to me…

[sighs] …that she wasn't happy with her life,

and wanted to get divorced.

But the thing is…

I just brushed it off as nothing more than complaints and petty grumbling.

I even told her off. I said…

"Everyone lives like that. Just put up with it."

But not long after that, my sister passed away.

If only I hadn't let her go.

By the time I finally accepted that my sister was gone,

I made a promise to myself.

That if I ever fell in love and got married…

for their sake and for my own good,

I would always be ready to part ways.

After all, parting ways

or getting divorced isn't a failure.

If anything, It could actually be a new beginning.

[chuckles]

So that's how I came to be who I am now.

Picking up where my sister left off with her knitting.

[chuckles]

It must've been tough for you.

[sighs]

What have I done?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to go all deep on you. We're just here to knit.

Huh. Wait a minute.

Huh? Wait, look here.

Did I mess up this loop?

I'll have to undo this part.

[chuckles]

You know what?

You think you always have to undo everything

and start from scratch to get it right, but you don't.

What do you mean?

A misplaced stitch, you know,

might be something only you notice. Something visible only to you.

Just like there's no one without scars

and no one without flaws, because in the end…

they're still a part of who you are.

[sighs]

You just have to focus on getting the next stitch right, you know.

It just felt like you were blaming yourself, so…

Well, thank you.

-Let's start again now, hmm? -Yeah, for sure.

-You do the rest, Mr. Noh. -Okay, sure.

-Okay, so… -Good.

[phone buzzing]

Let's try him.

So, you and Mr. Noh.

Is there something going on or am I just imagining things?

[chuckles]

You've nailed the smiley weirdo act now.

I thought that's what you wanted.

[scoffs] No wonder.

I could feel something was going on between you two at our last team dinner.

I totally called that one.

[smacks lips] Ah.

We should've just gone to my place to drink.

Nah, not just some random…

Actually, I mean, I couldn't go to your boyfriend's apartment.

That'd be uncomfortable.

You slept there just fine before, remember?

Whatever.

Ms. Cho Ah-young.

You only get like this when something's really bothering you.

Tell me, what is it?

[clicks tongue] Oh, I don't know. It's so annoying.

Does this have to do with what happened with Woong-sik?

How did you know?

I totally called that one.

[sighs]

Can I get another one?

[scoffs]

[comical music playing]

-You too? -Yes, me too.

Thought you had plans?

Canceled. [groans, sighs]

I can't believe I have to spend my precious off hours with my boss.

Weren't you on your way to meet another boss anyway?

Just put a little spell on yourself, huh?

"He's not my team lead. He's not my team lead."

"He's not my team lead."

He's not my team lead.

Wait up.

[inhales deeply, sighing] Sir.

[clears throat]

[clicks tongue] Ah.

-Whoa, sir. Hold on! Hey. -Oh, no. Hey.

This won't solve anything, okay? Here.

[breathes deeply]

[slurring] What's this, Noh Ki-jun? You little…

Unless you're planning to appear in family court in the near future,

maybe dial it down a bit.

I knew it. My luck was just too damn good to be true.

[sighs]

I mean, how the heck… How did you two end up with divorces?

And you, multiple times at that.

[sighs]

It's not like we rolled out the red carpet.

We had no choice but to accept it as fate.

-Mm-hmm. -[sighs]

May I ask why Ms. Lee wants to get divorced?

She said…

I didn't deserve the title of husband or dad.

-Oh, man. -[sighs] Jesus.

[scoffs]

And I thought all I had to do was provide. What a bad joke.

I kill myself working, wrecking my bowels, blowing out my joints, and for what?

My family doesn't even appreciate it one bit.

[inhales sharply]

Guys, it's all for nothing. All of it. Zilch, nada. I'm done.

-Oh, enough of that. -Come on, sir.

-Hands off my bottle! Come on! -Come on, sir. What's gotten into you?

Listen, even for someone with your track record,

getting named team lead at headquarters is no small feat, sir.

-Of course not. -Uh-huh.

-Being Ssangmun's best agent takes work. -You were the top.

Yeah, right. Top insurance agent at Ssangmun branch? Give me a break.

What I'm saying is, instead of losing your temper and beating yourself up,

try asking yourself how it happened in the first place.

You just need to look to your past to find your answers.

I mean, haven't you met enough couples getting divorce insurance to know that?

You know what I mean.

[sighs]

Hey, Yong-gi, daddy's home!

[So-jeong] Good. You're here. Oh, my.

Get in here already. Can you take Yong-gi to his room?

-Honey. -Huh?

-Goodness, you are-- -I topped the bonus list today.

-Don't lie down here. -Ow. Gosh. [groaning]

-Seriously. Be careful. Get up. Come on. -Ow, that hurts.

Get up already. Goodness.

[grunts, exclaims]

Kids, it's time to leave! You too, honey.

What's this?

You never come out whenever I tell you to.

The general manager's mother passed away early this morning.

I have to head down to Tongyeong.

The family photo?

We see each other every day. Let's take it another time.

I gotta go.

All right then, Mr. Na.

Have you two actually talked this through together, sir?

We did. We talked.

Are you sure it was an actual conversation, not just your own monologue?

What's so special about a conversation? It's always the same old story.

My point exactly, sir.

Not having that talk works like a charm if your goal is to get divorced.

For what it's worth, it's a conclusion I came to after three divorces.

Mmm.

Well, damn it. Aren't you two just great?

-Noh Ki-jun, aren't you just great? -Aren't we all?

-Look at us, we're just great. -Yeah, well, you still take the crown.

Hands down. [grunts]

[gasps]

Park Woong-sik is… He's like this.

[Han-deul] Your pinky finger?

No, just look.

I meant this bit on the side. See the hangnail? Right here.

Huh?

[groans]

I leave it alone because pulling it would hurt and the wound might fester.

But it bothers me too much to just ignore.

What should I do about this?

Go to a nail salon.

I'm so serious right now.

It's not like he proposed, right? So why the drama?

It's just…

I feel self-conscious about…

Woong-sik and also myself…

because the ending has already been written anyway.

So what if it's already been written?

Look at me.

Relationships can run their course and fade away, but you're still you.

So don't torture yourself over something you can't control.

The only one it hurts is you. It's not worth it.

So what's up with you two right now?

Hmm?

I'm talking about that thing with Mr. Noh.

In all the time we have spent together,

I've never seen you this happy, not even close.

You've been smiling a lot too.

Hmm. [sighs]

The truth is, I was scared, you know.

I thought after all the betrayal, could I just move on?

Can I really just brush it off like nothing happened?

Why not?

Because…

I believe in love even when it hurts. That's just the way I'm wired.

That's why I found the courage.

Hmm.

Classic smiley weirdo talk.

[both chuckle]

Courage, huh?

Okay. I'll keep going.

I worried it would be awkward.

Anyway, don't worry. She won't say anything about it.

[chuckles] What would I be worried about? We're not kids.

By the way, last night what did Mr. Na want to talk about?

-Huh… -The rejections?

Well, there was a bit of a situation.

-[groans, sighs] -[door closes]

[Jeon-man] He's been doing that all day.

[clears throat]

-[playful music playing] -[Na-rae] All right.

We need to pick up the pace.

The final approval review has been accelerated.

It's scheduled in two weeks.

-[Han-deul gasps] -[Ah-young groans]

Boy, that's sooner than I thought.

But it also means divorce insurance will be introduced to the world sooner.

Uh, how's the rejection situation going?

Uh, yes. [sighs]

Well, everything should be settled soon enough, ma'am.

Mmm. [smacks lips]

We're getting close to the finish line,

so the key isn't creating something brand-new,

but figuring out how to refine what we've got.

So with that in mind,

I think it's time to upgrade the policy terms.

So what do you mean, "upgrade"?

Having faced divorce ourselves,

we've witnessed plenty of other cases until now.

So let's think about how they came to their decision

to get divorced in the first place.

We'll also need to adjust the AI underwriting

-to match the updated policy terms. -Mmm.

And please review the claims assessment process and premium calculation.

-Oh, and Mr. Na. -[gasps]

Yeah?

Please check on the marketing team's progress, all right?

Yes, ma'am.

And lastly, Mr. An?

-What's up? -I'd like a word.

Yes, ma'am.

[Ki-jun sighs]

[sniffs] Mr. Na, what should we have for lunch today?

Well, I saw a new gukbap place opened up near here. [chuckles]

I don't really feel like eating right now.

Let's just go to the office cafeteria downstairs.

Oh. Okay.

Come on, Mr. Na. [sighs] Don't be like that.

Let's grab a hot bowl of gukbap outside to warm you up from the cold air.

Did you stick a thermometer into my heart?

-I don't have to. -Let's go out, Mr. Na.

[Ah-young] Yes, let's go, Mr. Na. Come on.

Why are you looking out for me all of a sudden? It's awkward.

-Come with us! -Just come on, sir.

-Let's go. -Man, seriously?

Yes, let's go. Let's go.

-What about An? -I'm sure he can take care of himself.

-Let's go. -Mr. Na, sir, put this on.

-It's cold outside. -Let's eat something warm.

-As in what? -Something warm. Gukbap sounds great.

-[Ah-young] They make good gukbap. -[Dae-bok groans]

Hmm.

Have a seat.

Your pet rock I take it… is doing well?

Yeah, it is.

Then what about Singapore?

Singapore?

Well, it's safe, so it's perfect for traveling. It's clean too.

[chuckles] Still playing the risk surveyor, right?

What's this about? [chuckles]

I'm used to you being way more direct, you know?

Hmm.

FROM SENIOR MANAGING DIRECTOR TO CEO - FROM KOREA TO SINGAPORE

[pensive music playing]

What do you think?

I'll get straight to the point, all right?

I'm looking for a proficient risk surveyor to come work alongside me

at the Singapore branch.

The business class baggage allowance is about 60 pounds,

which should be more than sufficient.

Would you and your pet rock like to come along?

[gulps]

You can decline if you'd like.

I'm not insisting that you go.

Hmm.

I'll think about it.

All right then.

Don't take too long though.

They want me to join them there as soon as possible.

Mmm.

I'll let you know.

[sighs]

[Na-rae clears throat]

You know you can go now.

Of all people…

why are you making me this offer?

Like I just told you,

I need a proficient risk surveyor.

Do you need me, Ms. Jeon?

[inspirational music playing]

Yeah.

[Han-deul] Mr. Na is getting divorced?

So that's why he called you out last night.

It seems Ms. Lee finally reached her breaking point.

Well, he did mention there were signs all along,

but nothing has been decided yet.

Still, he must be hurting a lot.

Sometimes the worst comes before the divorce, not after.

True, true.

Because no one really ever thinks it will happen to them.

I couldn't agree more.

How about we get dinner together after work?

[groans] Unfortunately, I might not make it to dinner tonight.

-This reinsurance meeting could run long. -Mmm.

Don't worry about me, okay? Go home and rest a little.

-Last night wore you out, huh? -[chuckles] Right.

What's going on? See someone you know?

No, I just thought the lake was really beautiful.

Well, not as stunning as you, of course.

[both chuckle]

PLUS GENERAL INSURANCE APPLICATION FORM

[somber music playing]

[sighs]

[Ki-jun] My point exactly, sir. Not having that talk works like a charm

if your goal is to get divorced.

[sighs]

DIVORCE INSURANCE INFORMATION

I'm heading out first, so you're free to go anytime.

-Uh, see you tomorrow, sir. -Okay, Mr…

[sighs]

Something's going on with Mr. Na, isn't there?

-[typing] -[door closes]

All those rejections must be taking a toll.

Honestly, it's hard not to notice how down he's been today.

Ugh, my lunch is just sitting in my stomach.

-Can I get you a… -No, I have some.

[pensive music playing]

[sighs]

[sighs] All done with the data for now.

[clears throat]

SINGAPORE

Hmm. Singapore? Going on vacation?

-Mind your own business. -You're going to Singapore? Lucky duck!

-No, that's not it. -[Ah-young sighs]

I'd love to go anywhere at all once we successfully wrap this up.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, let's go somewhere once this is over.

We're almost there. Let's keep it up!

-We got this! -[chuckles] We got this!

[sighs]

Oh.

You made it.

Actually, I went ahead and ordered grilled hagfish, your favorite.

Why did you ask me here?

PLUS GENERAL INSURANCE APPLICATION FORM

[So-jeong] "Divorce insurance?"

[sighs]

Another insurance policy?

Honey.

This will probably be the last product I work on before I retire.

So I have to--

Excuse me, sir.

Excuse me. I-I just… We're not…

[sighs]

Okay. You were right all along.

[nostalgic music playing]

Moving to a bigger apartment, sending the kids off to the US,

and watching you go on vacation made me think,

"Yes, of course. Yes, Na Dae-bok, you did well providing for your family."

I thought that was enough.

Making sacrifices for the family?

That's all just an excuse.

[inhales sharply]

Being the top insurance agent working at the Ssangmun branch?

What does that even mean?

Well, you were proud of that title.

My selfishness, that's all it was. I just didn't want to fall behind.

I didn't want to feel small in front of my family.

[inhales deeply]

[sighs]

At least work let me indulge my selfish side, but…

[sighs]

But you didn't get to do that.

Our children, the household chores, none of that could've been easy.

I guess I wanted to look away

because of my own selfishness.

And for the sake of selling insurance,

you made it your job to understand the pain of complete strangers, right?

[sniffles] You're right.

[clicks tongue]

I'm sorry, honey.

You really have been through

so much more than I have.

[So-jeong] Why does this grilled hagfish taste so good?

It's what made me marry you in the first place.

As broke as you were back then…

you never failed to buy me grilled hagfish

just because it was my favorite.

That's why I fell for you head over heels.

I knew you'd never let me go hungry.

I swear on my final insurance product,

just give me…

Please just give me a hundred days.

I'll do my best to be good to you

so this policy never gets claimed.

[sighs] Hmm?

Hmm.

I know…

you also went through a lot.

What? Did you think I wouldn't know?

[sniffles]

Give me some time.

[somber music playing]

This isn't an easy decision for me either.

So-jeong…

[breathes shakily]

[sniffles]

I'll improve one percent each day…

until I'm a hundred percent different.

I swear.

[sniffles]

I promise I'll change.

[sniffling, crying]

Thank you.

Thank you.

[crying]

[automated voice] This stop is Gijachon Sageori.

The next stop is Sindo Elementary School, Eunpyeong Meditech High School.

This stop is Gijachon Sageori.

[K-pop song playing]

H-How did you know?

We're neighbors. How could I not know?

How did you know I'd be here now?

Oh, God. Were you waiting this whole time?

You should've called.

Well, you were in a meeting. Didn't wanna disturb you, that's all.

Haven't been out here that long, don't worry.

Let's get going. I have a gift for you. Come on.

-Really? [chuckles] -Yes.

-[Han-deul] Aren't you cold? -I'm fine.

-I'm fine. -[chuckles]

Mom must've dropped by earlier.

Good thing she and I didn't run into each other. She would've been shocked.

-Hmm, I guess so. -[inhales sharply]

You haven't contacted her since that evening, have you?

[chuckles]

[sighs] I'll just grab a few books and then head out.

[door opens]

[pensive music playing]

[sighs]

-[phone beeps] -[line ringing]

-[line connects] -Mom.

Um…

Oh, yeah. Thanks for the food.

You didn't have to go to all that trouble.

[chuckles]

I had dinner already.

Have you eaten?

Oh.

[Han-deul] Yeah, okay. Bye.

-[call ends] -Was that your mother?

Oh… [chuckles] She said to make sure I eat now that I'm on my own.

Parents, am I right? Always concerned.

I told her I'd try to visit them soon.

It'd be a lie if I said I wasn't bothered by what happened that day. [chuckles]

I have no regrets though. I chose to take the leap.

Good.

Oh, God, I'm sorry.

I saw the photo by accident. I didn't mean to--

Oh. [chuckles]

I don't mind at all.

No need to worry. We switched places, remember?

I should be apologizing for leaving this out.

Not at all.

-Oh, gosh. -Uh…

It's my ex-wife who took this photo.

Ah. [chuckles]

Weren't you curious to know?

Of course I was curious.

But what's the point when I know that relationship is over now?

It's true.

It's over because of me.

Hmm.

That's actually why I kept this one photo. To remember the person I was then.

It's just a picture of you hard at work.

Back then, all I wanted was to live a stable life,

where everything felt secure.

And so, I always told her, "Sorry, but not now. Next time, I promise."

[somber music playing]

Then one day, she looked at me and said,

"You and I want really different things out of life."

While I was waiting for the rain to pass,

she wanted for us to weather the storm together.

By the time I came to my senses,

there was no longer a "next time."

It was over. The end.

It's strange how love can slip so quickly through your fingers.

[chuckles] You're right about that.

But funny enough, I actually saw her at the park earlier.

[chuckles]

At that moment, one single phrase came to mind.

"What a relief."

"What a relief," yeah.

I'm sure she would've thought the same if she had seen me too.

Especially since you were with me.

[both chuckle]

Hmm.

-[Han-deul gasps] -[inspirational music playing]

Wait, the photo…

It's time to put those memories to rest.

Now it's time to make new ones.

Oh…

With me, right?

-[Ki-jun] Mm-hmm. -[chuckles]

I should get going. It's getting late.

By the way…

I think I'm ready to go back to my own apartment now.

Are you worried your mother might find out?

No, it's not because of that.

I think I'll be able to sleep comfortably at my own place now.

Ah. If that's the case, I might be in trouble

since I've grown too fond of your place now.

[chuckles]

[Han-deul] Hmm.

Then, um,

because it's coming down pretty hard out there,

mmm, I thought that maybe…

Would you like to stay the night?

[audio fades]

With me?

[romantic K-pop song playing]

[music fades]

[mournful K-pop song playing]

[sighs] Jin-ju.

Jin-ju.

-Huh? -[panting]

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Did you sleep well?

Good morning.

[chuckles]

[both chuckle]

[Dae-bok] The rejections are all resolved now!

[Na-rae] I don't think we can celebrate just yet.

INFLUENCER DIVORCING FOR INSURANCE?

We won't be able to launch divorce insurance until this is resolved.

[Han-deul] Don't try to handle it all on your own.

-How did it go? What did the FSS say? -[Ah-young] I know it's late,

-but thanks for the gift. -[Jeon-man] What's with you two?

[Dae-bok] There's this place that can reignite even the faintest embers of love.

I'm going back to Singapore.

[Ki-jun] You still haven't given her an answer yet?

Does it amuse you to make a fool out of me?

[Ki-jun] Can I ask you something?

What was your question for the tarot reading back then?

I knew it from the start, you know.
