(My Star awaits in a building in Sadang-dong.)

(Hip air...)

(fills the place.)

(The birthplace of trends, live commerce studio)

(My Star is waiting for the secretaries here.)

I have a lisp because of my face.

- It's understandable. - Yes.

(Both secretaries arrive at work at the hub of trends.)

Your pants...

- Kwang Kyu. - Yes?

What will you do with those pants and shoes?

This is a disaster.

I realised that I had worn my sneakers too much.

What will you do with those socks and shoes? Hey.

What?

They're so embarrassing.

(They're so embarrassing.)

Your pants and shoes are so embarrassing. Your socks too.

A manager's outfit doesn't matter. Hey.

Kwang Kyu, that outfit...

isn't suitable for TV.

I matched...

the colour of the shoes and pants.

It's too...

Don't you have other shoes in the car?

Don't you have sneakers?

- He does have black shoes. - Good.

- What sneakers? - Hurry up and bring them.

- What sneakers? - Good. Hurry up and bring them.

(Hurried)

Why did you wear those pants?

It's cold!

These are the only winter pants I have.

- You look shabby in those pants. - No.

Hey, as a manager,

I want to make My Star shine.

That outfit will destroy My Star.

What?

(Oh, my)

Give me those shoes.

(He does have spare shoes.)

(Vintage black shoes that look very old)

(Clenching his teeth)

Give me those shoes.

Give me those shoes.

Hey, choose!

(Hey, choose!)

(The two pair of shoes are about the same.)

Which pair should I wear?

This is number one.

This is number two.

If I must choose, that pair is better.

- What? Is this pair better? - That pair is better.

- Really? - Yes. If I must choose...

For goodness' sake.

You're so difficult to please.

Hey, I matched the colour...

of the two items today.

Seong Yong,

- take off your pants. - Hold on.

- No. - Come on.

(They make a compromise to keep things reasonable.)

(Sighing)

Maybe I need a stylist.

Seriously.

Will it be better to do everything at once...

or one at a time?

- Let's do it later. - Okay.

(See you soon, my secretaries.)

- Right now... - Let's go.

(See you soon, my secretaries.)

Look at that. It's very nice.

Gosh, it's nice.

- Kwang Kyu, they sell clothes. - What?

Aren't those clothes for sale?

(He spots a clothing store at the entrance of the building.)

- Right? - Are they for sale?

I think so.

- Really? - Yes.

(His face lights up.)

- Are there men's clothes? - Yes.

Kwang Kyu, they have men's clothes.

- Really? - Yes.

(They suddenly begin shopping on their way to meet My Star.)

Let's buy a pair of pants.

- A pair of pants? - What?

I think these are golf pants.

This pair is nice.

- Will you buy it? - What?

- It's 15 dollars. - It's cheap.

- It's cheap. - It's ten dollars.

- Ten dollars? - Yes.

(They're having a Black Friday clearance sale.)

I should buy these pants.

Kwang Kyu, these pants are nice. Look. These pants are nice.

Do you have these pants in size 33?

Size 33?

Thank goodness. Seriously.

You wore...

a lousy outfit to buy new pants, right?

(Thankfully, My Star will see him in a nice outfit.)

Do they fit or not?

- Hey, Seo Jin. - Yes?

Ask for size 32.

- Are they big? - They're big.

- Are they big? - They're a bit big.

They aren't big.

Hey.

They aren't big.

Hey.

The waistband is under your belly.

I'll lose weight.

No, wear that size.

I'll go with this size.

Kwang Kyu.

(He checks out the tops as well.)

- Is this for men? - Yes.

All of these clothes are for men.

Please give me one in large.

Why are you shopping in earnest?

- I mean, - Why?

the fabric is nice.

Please wait.

(It's a chance to buy nice clothes for a cheap price.)

Hey, look at this.

It's six dollars.

- Is it for the employees? - Yes.

(It's the price of one gimbap roll.)

Please give me ten.

(Laughing)

It's six dollars.

- You need to pay and leave. - Really?

- Kwang Kyu, stop shopping. - Then...

I'll take this one.

No.

I'll take these two.

(I'll take these two.)

- Kwang Kyu, we need to go. - Let's go.

- Put them on. - Let's go. What?

- Give your clothes to the staff. - Let's go.

All right.

- These are new items. - Yes.

(Meanwhile, My Star is done with the commerce meeting.)

The idea of having strangers look after me...

I hope I won't walk on eggshells around these managers.

Seriously.

(She's the mom of 2 girls who are 8 and 5.)

(She's busy with shows, live commerce, and YouTube.)

(She's busy with shows, live commerce, and YouTube.)

(She's a popular working mom who needs more than 24 hours a day.)

(The secretaries arrive after shopping.)

- Ji Hye, hello. - Hello.

- Have you been well? - Yes.

- Hello. - Hello.

Why are you saying hello so coyly?

- Because I became a mom... - Seriously.

Why are you saying hello so coyly?

(Do the two of them know each other?)

(His dimples deepen as soon as he sees My Star.)

- You need this as well. - Have you been well?

It has been so long.

Yes. It was before you got married.

- It was years before that. - Yes.

I was in my mid 20s or early 30s.

I rarely go to the Hongdae area.

We often hung out in Gangnam.

Where did we hang out?

Do you remember?

- We went to the karaoke. - Did we go to the karaoke?

- Of course. - I think we went to the karaoke...

- with your older brother. - Discuss personal matters later.

Your manager needs to relay the duties. I'm sorry.

You need to work.

You kept talking about personal matters.

We can work now.

Today, to celebrate one million subscribers,

she'll film a YouTube video with the joint childcare concept.

(The joint childcare?)

It's for a party.

I'll invite the moms and film a YouTube video.

(My Star got 1 million subscribers...)

(6 years after starting a YouTube channel.)

Did I get one million subscribers?

The number is 999,999.

(Number of subscribers)

(Excited, surprised, happy, moved)

(Kwansim, my fans, thank you!)

(Tearing up)

Thank you so much for sending my family...

so much love and support.

(Aunts and uncles, thank you!)

Korean citizens.

(Her YouTube channel has a total of 450 million views.)

It isn't easy to get one million subscribers.

You must've received a Gold Play Button.

It's coming.

(The number 1 contributors of the Gold Play Button)

The 2025 SBS Entertainment Awards, Female Top Excellence Award...

(The Female Top Excellence Award went to Lee Hyun Yi in 2025.)

(The most frequent guest on Lee Ji Hye's YouTube channel)

(My Star who is a working mom, Model Lee Hyun Yi)

(My Star who is a working mom, Model Lee Hyun Yi)

Happy New Year.

(And...)

(the number of views skyrockets every time she visits.)

(Grinning)

(The rising master of the childcare YouTube)

(My Star who is a working mom, Comedienne Lee Eun Hyeong)

(The moms will come together to celebrate 1 million subscribers.)

(A big party with the family members is coming soon.)

We need to go and pick up my children.

We can't be late.

- Pick up your children? - Yes.

Today, we're celebrating one million subscribers on YouTube.

My children contributed,

so I'll film a YouTube video with them.

- What do we need to do with them? - We need to pick them up.

My children...

- Will they participate in filming? - Yes. After all...

- You're filming at a kids' cafe. - Yes.

I gained more subscribers thanks to my children.

Because of that,

- the children... - Tae Ri and Ellie.

Your second child has the same name as my niece.

- Really? Is she Ellie? - Ellie.

That's perfect.

How old are they? How old is the first child?

The 1st child is 8 and the 2nd child is 5.

- First grade? - Yes, first grade and five.

- It'll take a long time. - Gyeseong Elementary School?

She's my junior.

Did you attend Gyeseong Elementary School?

- Yes, I did. - Really? That's incredible.

(Seo Jin attended the same school as JI Hye's first daughter, Tae Ri.)

It was so hard to enrol her in that school.

But she won the lottery.

- You did well with the lottery. - Yes.

Seo Jin, you attended Gyeseong Elementary School. Nice.

(He'll meet his junior of 40 years soon.)

(The happy coincidence makes My Star's face light up.)

- They shouldn't wait. - We need to go.

We can't be late.

Let's go.

(12:30pm, Setting out to pick up Tae Ri)

Seo Jin...

didn't attend the meeting very often, right?

Both Seo Jin and I...

were shy,

so we weren't very close.

Isn't that right?

Back then, Baek Z Young...

- Yes. You and Z Young were close. - and Yu Ri...

- I... - Yu Ri and...

Ji Hye is an incredible singer.

- Of course. - I don't even remember.

You should learn how to sing from her.

Ji Hye is great at singing trot.

Teach him how to sing.

- Really? - Take a singing lesson in the car.

I'm a judge at "The Best K-Trot Singer."

Shall I teach you a lesson?

- Teach me a lesson. - Okay.

- Okay. That sounds good. - Okay.

- That's right. - Okay.

- I'll drive then. - Really?

- Learn how to sing. - Shall I do that?

Okay.

This is...

Ji Hye is really good at singing.

I know that.

She's also good at live commerce.

What Kwang Kyu wants to do the most is live commerce and singing.

I did that because I wanted him to learn from Ji Hye...

during the drive.

(Offhanded affection for the older bestie)

How will we get in?

We have a lot of stuff to carry.

(Tight)

- How will we get in? - You can do it.

(He runs into an issue as soon as he decides to drive.)

Kwang Kyu, I can't get in.

(Squeezing)

It's too tight.

(He wants to help, but the environment won't let him.)

- Can't you get in? - I can't get in.

- I'll take the car out. - No. It's impossible to get in.

I can take the car out.

It's impossible to get in.

No. It's possible.

Kwang Kyu, it's too tight for me.

(Squeezing)

Seo Jin got in from the other side.

He's something else.

(Squeezing in)

Kwang Kyu, it's too tight for me.

(Seo Jin crosses the passenger seat for the older bestie.)

I'll give you the key.

I can't believe...

Seo Jin offered to drive today.

(The secretaries' warm journey at the cold year-end begins.)

Let's go.

(The secretaries' warm journey at the cold year-end begins.)

Ji Hye, I recently read an article about you.

- What article? - What article?

It said that you got a surgery.

Was that why you stared intently earlier?

What changed about my face?

- Seriously. - What changed about my face?

- Your face... - It changed a lot.

- became much prettier. - Did it become much prettier?

I read in an article that you had a philtrum surgery.

- That's right. - What?

- That's right. - When did you get it done?

- She came clean about it. - Do you prefer my old or new face?

- Be honest. - I prefer your old face.

- Really? - Yes.

I already had plastic surgery. What should I do?

- I prefer... - It's not completely healed yet.

- You look a bit awkward... - I need a few more months.

- You're right. My philtrum... - around the mouth.

My philtrum...

I got it done because they said that recovery would take two weeks.

But it isn't fully healed even after a month.

It takes about six months.

Yes. How do you know?

- Well, that's... - Did you shorten your philtrum?

No. Everyone who had plastic surgery said that.

It takes 6 months. I thought it'd take 2 weeks.

I'm someone who's on TV every day.

I had shoots lined up,

and I couldn't cancel them because of my responsibility.

So I came clean...

and explained what had happened.

Since then,

so many articles talk about how I had a philtrum shortening surgery.

("Philtrum shortening surgery, Lee Ji Hye")

"Philtrum shortening surgery, Lee Ji Hye" is in every title.

("Philtrum shortening surgery, Lee Ji Hye")

- There are those articles. - It's hard to reveal a surgery,

but you did it on YouTube.

Ji Hye once had a press conference at a swimming pool.

- That came out of nowhere. - At a swimming pool?

Seo Jin, you've been keeping up.

- Why did you watch my press... - He has been keeping up.

- conference at a swimming pool? - There were articles everywhere.

I couldn't read any other articles.

Why did you do that?

Did someone pick a fight?

Yes, they did. There was an issue.

That's right. People said that I had gotten a breast surgery.

- They accused you of lying. - Yes.

- Back then... - You showed that they were wrong.

Back then, they had to make an incision in the underarm area.

So I revealed my underarm area.

"I didn't get it done."

- It was impressive. - How impressive.

She was so angry.

Is that why your YouTube channel is “Gwanjong,” an attention-seeker?

That's right.

(My Star's YouTube channel title was born from such history.)

I thought it was the perfect title.

I love receiving attention,

but I don't do it in an annoying way.

The title captures that vibe.

(Since Working Mom Ji Hye always shows her genuine self,)

(1 million fans have gathered with warm attention.)

(1 million fans have gathered with warm attention.)

I think people began to see me for myself...

through my YouTube channel.

They realised that I worked hard.

They watched me talk all the time.

It couldn't have been easy to call yourself an attention seeker.

("Gwanjong Un-ni," let's get 2 million subscribers.)

You'll see children there.

Seo Jin likes children a lot.

- Really? - Don't dump the duties on me.

You like children.

- You look after your niece. - Do you take good care of children?

(Very sweet)

(Very warm-hearted)

(He becomes a sweet uncle when he's with children.)

(What kind of memories will he make with children today?)

First graders act strong.

- Really? - Even though Tae Ri is a shy girl,

he acts strong at times.

And you need to show reactions to girls.

I'm in charge of reactions.

Kwang Kyu, good luck.

- Reactions. - You must show reactions.

But show genuine reactions, not fake reactions.

Children can tell.

You know what I mean, right?

Tae Ri is sensitive.

- I'm in trouble. - She reads people's faces.

With my second child, it's easy.

My second child loves to eat.

She becomes happy when you give her chocolate.

It'll be easy to look after my second child.

- Is she 5? - Yes, she's 5.

- Five-year-olds are cute. - She loves to eat.

- They're the cutest. - She's cute and is a funny talker.

(Excited)

Have you been to the school after it moved locations?

- I did visit once. - Why?

They asked me to come to the reunion once.

(The last visit was for a reunion 15 years ago.)

There won't be a single teacher I know at this point.

(So many years have passed.)

There are many schools in the area.

(They are already near Seo Jin's elementary school.)

It's the one to the left, right?

Yes. Go to the left and make an immediate turn.

That's the location. You see the school, right?

- I think I graduated in 1982. - Really?

I guess that's how it is.

The buried memories...

can surface when you aren't even expecting them.

The childhood memories...

How many years ago did you attend this school?

(It was a long time ago.)

Tell me. How many years ago was it?

(Well...)

Forty-five years ago?

- Really? - It was 45 years ago.

- Forty-five years ago? - But the school wasn't here.

I see. It was at a different location.

- It was in Myeong-dong. - Your elementary school. No way.

(Many things have changed,)

(but he's always happy to visit the school grounds.)

My daughter is your junior.

Is the school song still the same?

Sing it with her.

- When my daughter... - I don't remember it very well.

- sings it, sing along. - Children are coming out.

- Children are coming out. - Yes.

(Parents are waiting for their children to come out.)

(These 2 uncles wait for their niece.)

- Moon Tae Ri! - Hello.

Tae Ri!

- Are we going home? - Okay.

(She runs to her mom right away.)

Let's go. Tae Ri, say goodbye.

Ah Yoon.

(She says hello to Tae Ri's friend.)

Ah Yoon, let's hang out soon, okay?

Bye, Ah Yoon.

Let's go.

It was unimaginable when I attended elementary school.

(The man who graduated years ago is unfamiliar with the sight.)

Tae Ri, say hello. They're my managers.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello.

(Hello.)

(Moon Tae Ri, My Star, Ji Hye's first daughter)

Usually, only your mom picks you up in front of the school.

Weren't you surprised to see unfamiliar uncles?

- I was a bit surprised. - Were you surprised?

But they seemed like Mom's friends.

- They seemed like Mom's friends. - Friends.

(So it was okay.)

They're Uncle Kwang Kyu and Uncle Seo Jin.

I graduated from this school.

(Showing dimples)

- Really? - Yes.

He's your senior by 50 years.

Uncle...

Uncle graduated from this school.

Really?

Yes, really.

I graduated in 1982 or something.

- In 1982? - Yes.

- I graduated in 1982 or something. - I was born in 1980.

- Tae Ri. - Did she have lunch?

I received a random eraser today.

She ate...

- at the school cafeteria. - I got it for the book exercise.

- Really? Did you do a good job? - What's that?

- What's that? - It's a random eraser.

What's that?

Today, I got a seal.

- It doesn't look like a eraser. - An eraser?

(My goodness. An eraser?)

- It's cute. - Right?

It'll be perfect to use it for studying.

- Did it make you happy... - Yes.

- to receive a present? - Yes.

- Did you have a happy day? - Yes.

- Did you have fun? - I had a lot of fun.

I see. Do you want me to carry your bag?

I love looking at someone else's child.

I love looking at the child someone else has raised well.

I don't want to raise my own child.

But...

when I see a child from time to time,

it feels really great.

Let's go.

- Is there a restroom near here? - A restroom?

There isn't a restroom here.

- No? - Why would there be one here?

- There isn't a restroom here. - No?

Where are we going next?

Use it at the salon. Do you need to go right away?

- Where? - The salon.

- Ji Hye needs to go to the salon. - If you go up...

- Hold it in. - I know.

- It's over there. - Do you need to go right away?

- Sinbanpo Church. - Sinbanpo Church.

- Sinbanpo Church. There's... - It's a church across the street.

- A church? - a restroom in it.

- Have you been there? - Take Uncle there.

- Take Uncle there. - But...

- Take Uncle there. - Thank you.

Help him pee at the church.

- Sinbanpo Church, okay? - We'll take the car to the front.

Okay. Let's go.

- Mom, don't leave without me. - Are you okay?

Okay. I'll go to the front.

Uncle is old, so take good care of him.

Okay?

(Happy)

(Even an 8-year-old thinks it's funny.)

- Isn't he a grandpa? - He's old enough to be one.

Tae Ri became flustered.

You know,

she isn't very shy.

The fact that she took Kwang Kyu to the restroom...

tells me she's very cheerful.

Tae Ri could be secretly feeling very embarrassed.

She's shy. She's just like me.

I guess Kwang Kyu didn't seem like a bad man.

I guess he looked nice.

- Are you in first grade? - Yes.

My goodness. What do you learn?

- In classes? - Mathematics?

Do you learn mathematics?

Yes, I learn mathematics.

(Impressed)

How does a first grader learn mathematics?

(The conversation strangely continues.)

Seriously.

Have you been here?

Yes.

(With Tae Ri's help, he arrives at the church restroom.)

- Then... - It's here.

- you... - It's here.

- Don't you need to use it? - No.

Then sit here for a second.

- Don't go anywhere. - Okay.

Stay here.

(Hurried)

(Grinning)

(Freezing)

(Glancing over)

(Peeking)

When will he come back?

He'll come back soon.

(She becomes bored.)

(Wailing)

Why are you crying?

(Hurried)

- Did you cry? - No.

Didn't you wail?

What was that?

Let's go.

Why would I cry?

What did you say then?

I could barely pee because you were crying.

Seriously.

I didn't cry.

I was so startled.

Hello.

My pee stopped.

(She even says hello to a stranger.)

I got tired of waiting,

so I shouted.

You didn't wait that long.

I didn't poop.

(The restroom mates bicker cheerfully.)

The car is here.

Here.

(Uncle Seo Jin drove over to pick them up.)

My daughter.

Let's go.

- I feel refreshed. - Did you show him the way?

Tae Ri, did you guide him to the restroom...

- in Sinbanpo Church? - Yes.

Fasten your seatbelt.

I took care of the urgent matter thanks to Tae Ri.

- Clap! - What's this?

(Chuckling)

- She isn't even listening. - Gum?

- Gum. - She isn't even listening.

I want a pink one.

- Mom. - It's here.

We're here, Tae Ri.

We're here.

Be careful.

(They became close thanks to the restroom trip.)

Moon Tae Ri, is it your first time coming here with Mom?

- No. - Have you been here?

Yes.

- Let's apply it lightly. - Mom.

- Moon Tae Ri. Do you want to watch? - I want to watch.

(Sticking close)

- Moon Tae Ri. - Mom is the best.

My daughter is the best.

(Affectionate)

Tae Ri.

Tae Ri, Uncle Kwang Kyu will bring back cookie sticks.

(Grinning)

What kind of snacks do you like?

What kind of snacks do I like?

(Thinking)

Cookie sticks.

- Cookie sticks? - Yes.

Do you like cookie sticks?

Okay. Cookie sticks.

(He learns about Tae Ri's favourite snack.)

She talked about cookie sticks inside the car.

I found them.

(Kwang Kyu's small present to repay Tae Ri's kindness.)

I found it.

Play with Uncle.

Play a game with Uncle.

- What game? - Word Chain Game.

Uncle is very smart, Tae Ri.

Uncle is very smart, Tae Ri.

- Which Uncle? - Play it with Uncle Seo Jin.

- Play the Word Chain Game. - Don't I look...

smarter than Uncle Kwang Kyu?

(Instinct versus Loyalty)

No? Do you think Uncle Kwang Kyu is smarter?

Yes.

Don't lie.

Why are you lying?

(She looks like someone who got caught lying.)

(Blinking)

(He looks at her sweetly because she's so cute.)

- Why are you lying? - My goodness.

- Let's play the Word Chain Game. - The Word Chain Game?

Sure.

Go first.

Shall I go first?

(Confident)

Can I give a name?

- No! - No names?

(No names are allowed.)

Can it be a two-syllable word? Apple.

Gwa? Fruit.

Journal.

- What? - Journal.

Gi? Giraffe.

(Lin?)

Something we put in our hair.

That's oil.

- It starts with "Lin." - "Lin?"

- Conditioner. - Conditioner.

- Were you giving me a hint? - Yes.

I see.

- Were you giving me a hint? - Yes.

I see.

(Laughing)

She gave you a hint so that you wouldn't get it wrong.

Uncle, you need to think.

What? You didn't give me time to think.

Come on.

(This uncle isn't an easy target.)

I'll start with S.

Switzerland.

Switzerland?

- Mom, look. - Ski.

I'm listening, Tae Ri.

- Ki. Kiwi. - Ki.

Kiwi?

Wi? Consolation.

Ro.

("Ro" is a hard one.)

Ro... Rose.

Rose? That's a name.

- Does a name work? - Ro...

Ro.

Rose isn't a name.

What is it then?

Are you going to be...

(Are you going to be so difficult?)

Isn't Rose the name of a singer?

No, it isn't.

- It's something else. - Isn't it Rose of BLACKPINK?

- No. - Then what?

Are you talking about rose Champagne?

You can't be talking about rose Champagne.

- No. - How would you know that?

I'll say it's rose Champagne.

Will you say it's rose Champagne?

What's going on? For goodness' sake.

(An 8-year-old who knows what Champagne is)

Se.

After Rose comes Jennie.

BLACKPINK members.

(Uncle, you're too much.)

Will you say Jennie doesn't work when Rose does?

Don't show favouritism.

It isn't like that.

Mom, I won't play the Word Chain Game with Uncle.

Did you lose to his way of words?

Mom, I won't play the Word Chain Game with Uncle.

Did you lose to his way of words?

It isn't like that. I just want to play with you.

You're embarrassed.

Uncle didn't go easy on you.

(Her feelings are hurt.)

When we played the Word Chain Game,

he should've let me off once.

- But he didn't do that. - Did it upset you?

Yes, it upset me.

It upset you.

(Sullen)

Play the Baskin-Robbins 31.

(She challenges Uncle to a different game.)

Which game shall we play?

Baskin-Robbins 31.

How do you play it?

You can say 1, 2, 3...

or 1, 2 or 1.

Okay. Three at most.

- Then we go up to 31. - I see.

Okay. Set, go.

- Baskin-Robbins 31 - Baskin-Robbins 31

Shall I begin? One, two, three.

Four, five.

Six, seven, eight.

Ten, eleven, twelve.

Why do you keep saying three numbers?

Can't I say three numbers?

You told me that I could.

Thirteen.

Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen.

Twenty-three.

Twenty-four.

Twenty-five.

Twenty-six.

Twenty-seven, twenty-eight.

(The person who says the last number, 31, will lose.)

Twenty-nine, thirty.

Twenty-nine, thirty.

Thirty-one.

(Sad)

Then...

Tae Ri lost.

(He stays true to his instinct.)

But he didn't do that.

Tae Ri, do the calculations.

I want to stop.

(Her feelings are hurt for the 2nd time.)

Did I win?

- You won three times. - Really?

You need to do that for children.

- You raise them to be tough. - Okay?

She attends a tough school.

- Uncle. - Yes?

Let's sing the school song together.

How does it begin?

- Sing the beginning. - Teach me the beginning.

- Okay. - "Virgin Mary's star."

(He goes through the 40-year-old memories.)

Virgin Mary's star, the morning star

Virgin Mary's star, the morning star

How do you remember that?

It gives off holy lights Are those the lyrics?

(Yes.)

He remembers.

Seo Jin, your memory is no joke.

I don't remember at all.

(He's too perfect.)

What comes before that line?

The true wisdom

It shines on our school

That's all I know.

The true wisdom

Hold on. What was it? Gyeseong...

I forgot the lyrics!

You're confused, right?

If you're confused, think about how confused I must be.

(They overcame half a century to sing the school song together.)

I brought back cookie sticks.

- Uncle is back. - Thank you.

All right.

Oreo cookie sticks.

- Thank you. - Uncle, thank you.

(He paid back for the restroom trip with Tae Ri's favourite snacks.)

- Uncle is the best. Thank you. - Okay.

(She enjoys a sweet treat to ease the bitter defeat.)

(Satisfied)

We need to pick up my second child.

At what time?

We can pick up my second child from 2:20pm.

Ji Hye, seriously.

You live so diligently.

Seo Jin, I split up five minutes in my life.

- Seriously. - You pick up children,

appear on shows,

and film YouTube videos.

(So much respect for the working mom)

What was that?

(There's a reason why Ji Hye feels energized.)

Mom, your lips smell like...

flowers.

This one smells like a peach.

(She fills her mother with energy.)

- This one smells like a tangerine. - Does it?

- You smell like fresh fruits. - Do I?

My cutie pie.

- Well... Let's go. - Mom, wait for me.

Let's go together.

Let's go.

Let's go, Tae Ri. Get in the car.

- Did you set up a car seat? - Sorry?

- A car seat. - It's the one we set up earlier.

- We need another one for Ellie. - Is there a problem?

- We need to change the car seat. - There's another one in the back.

We can't let Ellie sit by herself in the back.

- Should we change the seat? - Yes.

- Should we change the position? - Then...

- Move Ellie's car seat here. - Right.

And I'll sit in the front passenger seat,

and Kwang Kyu will be in the back. I think we should do that.

- We should move this one? - Yes, take it off.

There's ISOFIX under the baby car seat.

Grab the clips with both hands and pull it out.

- They're under the car seat. - Under the car seat?

Yes, under it.

- Where? - Right here.

- Look under the car seat. - Oh, here.

Pull the connectors...

while pushing the buttons.

- Pushing the buttons? - Yes. Pull them.

Does it come out?

(He looks like a father who tries hard for his daughter.)

- Oh, you mean this? - Can you see it?

Yes, that's it.

There you go. Both sides. Push the buttons and...

Yes, that's how you take it off.

Now, move it to the middle seat.

Once they fit in, you can just push the car seat.

- There you go. Is it done? - It's done, right?

Okay. You did a good job.

You're good at this.

Let's get going.

- Now... - Okay.

- Should I sit in the front or back? - Me?

What should we do?

(Then where should I sit?)

- Kwang Kyu, you... - Me?

- You should sit in the back. - Should I sit in the back?

- Me? - Yes.

I should sit here?

- Oh, boy. What should we do? - For now...

(There's space that's only enough for a shopping bag.)

It's tight.

(For My Star's family,)

Dear me.

(Kwang Kyu squishes himself into the back seat.)

Pull it to your right side.

(Kwang Kyu is not visible from here.)

- Shall I come to help you? - No, that's okay.

Goodness. I'm tired.

(Grumpy Secretary Baby seems unusually pitiful today.)

Let's go.

(They set off to pick Ellie up,)

(the 2nd major contributor to reaching 1 million subscribers.)

- Oh, dear. Gosh. - That's right.

(Oh, dear. Gosh.)

- Gosh. Can't you drive nicely? - Tae Ri...

- What's wrong? - Oh, no.

(Uncle Kwang Kyu, are you okay?)

There's no handle...

- in the back seat. - It's uncomfortable in the back.

Exactly. He was so unlucky.

I volunteered to drive for Kwang Kyu.

But he ended up being squished in the back seat.

I don't know why...

things like that always happen to him.

- Should we go this way? - Correct.

Go straight and then turn right.

(They arrive at Ellie's daycare center with Kwang Kyu in the back.)

Mom, I'll go in.

- You will? You can come with me. - Will you pick up your sister?

- Will you go by yourself? - Yes.

Okay.

Tae Ri, get out of the car and bring Ellie here.

(The 8-year-old oldest daughter goes to pick up her little sister.)

- Open the door, please. - Okay.

- Is it open now? - No.

I'm sorry. I can't open it for you.

(I'm sorry. I can't open it for you.)

Wait just for a moment.

(Tae Ri, I'll open it for you.)

See you in a bit.

(I'll go and pick up Ellie.)

(We prepared Ellie's seat.)

- Done. - Okay.

Uncle Seo Jin, I can go by myself.

- If you go in... I really... - Got it.

I won't go in.

I'll be waiting outside.

(I'll be waiting for you.)

It's open.

Hello.

(The man who's excited to meet Ellie)

Ellie.

I...

- My niece's name is Ellie too. - Right.

It was a surprising coincidence.

I was surprised to hear that her name was also Ellie.

(The fool who thinks of nothing but Ellie)

(He seems more excited than he was when he met My Star.)

- Is Kwang Kyu sleeping? - Sorry?

Is Kwang Kyu sleeping?

- What? - Is he sleeping?

Is my manager sleeping?

He's just stuck in his seat.

- He's sleeping. - He can't...

Ellie!

- Oh, my. Hi. - Ellie.

(My Star's second daughter, Moon Ellie)

Ellie. Come, Ellie.

(As soon as he sees Ellie, he smiles with dimples.)

Ellie, say hello to Uncle Seo Jin.

(Toddling)

(I'll help you.)

Are you shy?

Say hi to Uncle Seo Jin.

Are you shy?

(He finds Ellie cute.)

Say hi to Uncle Seo Jin.

- Hello. - Hello. Bye, Ellie.

Ellie, say goodbye to her.

Say goodbye to your teacher.

- Goodbye. - Bye, Tae Ri.

Ellie, say hello to Uncle Seo Jin.

- Ellie, say hello to him. - What are you eating?

A chewing gum.

- Ellie, say hello to Uncle Seo Jin. - I want to eat it too.

- But there's just one flavour. - You want it too? Right.

She can have it.

- She can't go through to her seat. - Come here.

- Ellie, go to the other side. - Mom, here's Ellie's bag.

- Get in on the other side. Yes. - On the other side?

Put her bag down here.

(Behaving well)

You can sit here.

(You can sit here.)

- Ellie, put your seatbelt on. - There you go.

(The sweet voice only for Ellie)

- I'll do it by myself. - You'll do it by yourself?

(- I'll do it by myself. - You'll do it by yourself?)

- Do you have a daughter? - Sorry?

I don't have a daughter.

(Glancing)

- They don't have a child, Tae Ri. - It would've been nice.

(It's hard to read Ellie's face.)

(How is she feeling?)

How did you feel when you first met them?

He looked handsome.

(Ellie liked Uncle Seo Jin too.)

Hi. You're doing it by yourself?

I see that she's stubborn.

- She does it on her own. - I've been chewing it for too long.

Can you put it in there?

- That's good. - Nice work.

Ellie, make sure to place it across the middle of your chest.

(He feels proud of her.)

Sit straight. Or else, you might get hurt.

I want to eat chewing gum too.

I'll give you one. Sit straight.

(The handsome uncle takes good care of her to the end.)

(Mom is proud of her daughters.)

Children at her age are the cutest, Seo Jin.

- I know. - They're the cutest at that age.

- They're the cutest at that age. - They're so adorable.

They become so much cuter after they start talking.

Mom, are we going to a kids' cafe?

Yes, we're going to a kids' cafe.

I recently reached one million subscribers.

I invited a few mothers. We'll make a YouTube video together.

(3:30pm, kids' cafe, Filming a YouTube video)

Tae Ri.

Can you sing a song for me?

(Sing a song?)

(Tae Ri's jukebox starts playing.)

(She chose "Golden," the most popular song among kids.)

Is Ellie singing too?

(Ellie: Chorus)

(She suddenly starts singing as the main vocalist?)

I won't sing.

(Sulky)

(Ellie continues singing solo without knowing how Tae Ri feels.)

(Ellie continues singing solo without knowing how Tae Ri feels.)

(Everyone exclaims.)

(Upset)

- Next... - Mom, I'll sing this time.

Ellie, don't sing.

I'm not...

I'm not going to eat anymore.

I'll sing this time, so don't sing along, okay?

I didn't sing when you were singing.

Okay?

(Okay?)

I'll sing.

Ellie, do you want to sing again?

You can't sing it.

You don't even understand English.

(Nervous)

(Ellie sings first.)

(She finishes her performance hastily.)

Now you can sing, Tae Ri.

- Ellie, are you done? - Yes.

Okay. Wait quietly while Tae Ri sings, okay?

- No, I'm not done yet. - When will you be done?

(Ellie's cheery energy doesn't go away.)

(Stop singing already, will you?)

I'm done now.

Okay. Let Tae Ri sing now, okay?

Let's be quiet and hear her sing.

Ready, go.

(Singing)

(Frustrated)

Mom, I won't sing. I'm serious.

All right. Stop, you two.

I will never play with you again, Ellie.

Uncle Seo Jin, don't ever have a baby.

I shouldn't have a baby?

Look how stressful it is.

Oh, is it?

Is it so stressful?

Stop fighting, you guys. We're almost there.

It's right there. We're almost there.

We're almost there. Look.

It's so stressful for me to be with Ellie.

You guys played together just fine. Don't be like that.

Let's go.

Mom, I'll put the bag here.

- Let's see if Yeong Seo is here. - Take off your seatbelt.

Let's go.

You look gorgeous.

(Ellie can do it by herself.)

- Ellie. - Ellie, get out on this side.

Ellie, get out on this side.

- She's going to her mom. - What?

(Ellie gets out of the car safely.)

They fought again. They both wanted to sing.

Come and get out of the car.

- There you go. - Kwang Kyu, can you come out?

I'll try.

- Will you come through the trunk? - No.

- On which side will you come out? - We won't... This side.

- We won't need the bag, right? - You can leave it there.

(Struggling)

(Grunting)

(Everyone got out of the car including the last baby.)

(Sighing)

Sitting in the back seat was hard.

Let's go.

Hold Uncle Kwang Kyu's hand. It's dangerous.

Slow down. Don't run.

- You might fall down. - Okay. Let's go.

(Bouncing)

Ellie, hold my hand. Hold my hand tightly.

(The kids are excited to be at a kids' cafe.)

There you go.

(Ellie enters first.)

- Take off your jacket. Oh, my. - Ji Hye.

Oh, my. Hyun Yi. My goodness.

- Ji Hye. - Oh, my. Hyun Yi. My goodness.

This is Lee Hyun Yi.

- Oh, my. - This is Lee Hyun Yi.

Hello.

- Hi. - Hello. Yes, hello.

(My Star, Model Lee Hyun Yi)

- Hello. Yes, hello. - Hello.

(Finally, they meet everyone of Mommies.)

Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Oh, my. Hello. - Hello.

(My Star, Comedienne Lee Eun Hyeong)

- Oh, hello. - Eun Hyeong.

- Am I overly dressed? - You look gorgeous.

- Hi, Hyeon Jo. Hyeon Jo is here. - Hyeon Jo.

(Toddling)

Oh, my.

(Walking forward quickly)

Hyeon Jo, he's not your dad.

(He turns around and walks away.)

- A boy or a girl? - He's a boy.

- A boy? - Yes.

(He's cute.)

My goodness.

Hyeon Jo, come here.

How about we go over there?

(Let me tell you something about My Baby Hyeon Jo.)

(Kang Hyeon Jo, 16 months old, Eun Hyeong's son)

Oh, my. Hyeon Jo, you have a pot belly too.

(Plump)

Hyeon Jo.

(He has a 3-head, plump body that is so adorable.)

- Does he look like me? - Sorry?

He looks a lot like his dad.

I love you.

(Comedian Kang Jae Jun, Eun Hyeong's husband, Hyeon Jo's dad)

What is it? Can you hear your mom's voice?

(He's a carbon copy of his dad.)

(His dad will come after his work is done.)

(I tagged along with my mom to her shoot.)

Hyeon Jo, look who's here. Yeong Seo is here.

- Yeong Seo is here. - Yeong Seo, did you say hi?

Say hello to Tae Ri's mom and the uncles here.

Hello.

- Hello. - A boy?

- Yes, he's a boy. - She has two sons.

- She has two sons? - Yes.

(Hong Yeong Seo, 7 years old, Hyun Yi's 2nd son)

- He looks just like you. - He takes after me, right?

You're handsome.

- Shall we start right now? - Yes.

Please come here, Hyeon Jo's family.

(Yeong Seo inherited his mom's model gene.)

- She has two sons. - She has two sons?

Yes, and Ji Hye has two daughters.

- Eun Hyeong has one son. - I see.

- Mom. - Mom.

(His eyes are fixed on the children.)

Ellie, let me try it just once.

Goodness. She never listens to me.

- How far are you going? - I'll ride this one.

- I'll ride this one. - How far are you going?

(A shoot with children is always unpredictable.)

Why is this so small?

I'm so out of it. Let me put this down first.

- Shall we start the shoot now? - Okay.

Let's begin.

(Mom is sweaty too.)

Let's do the opening while the kids are together.

Shall we do it without them?

- Okay. - Shall we?

(She prepares to work her main job.)

(Mom)

- Goodness. - Mom, let's go in there...

- I don't remember my lines at all. - Let's go in there together.

Mom, shall we go in there together?

Play without me. I'll join you in a bit after shooting the video.

You can be brave and play alone, right?

Be brave. That's good.

Hello, everyone. Thank you for coming to my channel.

There's a reason why I dressed up.

(She starts the shoot naturally.)

We reached a million subscribers recently. Thank you so much.

("Gwanjong Un-ni," 1 million subscribers)

Reaching a million subscribers...

- is not what matters most. - Tae Ri.

- Every week, we work hard... - Tae Ri.

- Our voices are overlapping. - Mom.

- Our voices are overlapping. - Mom.

- What matters is... - Let's play together.

to get high views every week.

- I want you to know the importance. - Let's go in there together.

(The professional YouTuber continues the shoot despite her interference.)

We won't be arrogant because we have a million subscribers.

We always do our best with a beginner's mindset.

But reaching a million subscribers is something to celebrate.

- Did they start the shoot already? - I think so.

She's amazing.

(He's amazed by My Star who's a seasoned working mom.)

(My Star is a pro at both her work and parenting.)

- To celebrate... We still... - Mom, I'll take off my socks.

Okay. You can take off your socks.

It's a meaningful achievement that we should celebrate.

- And especially... - I want to take off my socks.

All right. Take them off. Okay.

Until we reached a million subscribers...

She's holding the sock while speaking.

(Ji Hye doesn't stop speaking even while taking off her socks.)

We haven't even started, but I'm already mentally tired.

Right?

- We should do three things now. - I'm already tired.

You're such a good boy. You're so good.

He's adjusting well.

You're such a good boy.

Over two million...

Many people contributed to reaching a million subscribers.

Like Ms. Lee Hyun Yi, who appeared in the Mom Needs a Break segment.

The videos she appeared in got over two million views.

Those videos made her a popular star.

When I went to the bathroom to take a shower...

- I was standing to take a shower. - When you take a shower...

(Breast milk)

(The moms' stories helped them get 1.69 million views.)

- It's a true story. - It sprayed out in the shower?

- You haven't experienced that? - No way.

- I'm sure you pressed here. - I didn't.

- It's a true story. They swelled... - It sprayed out like this?

- It's true. It came out like this. - It must've just leaked.

(I contributed a lot to reaching 1 million subscribers.)

- Mom, come in here. - I'm so out of it.

- Mom needs a break. I invited... - Mom, come in here.

- Play without me for a while. - Come in here.

I invited Ms. Lee Hyun Yi.

As for Ms. Lee Eun Hyeong, she shared her everyday life...

before, during her pregnancy, and after her childbirth.

She revealed everything on my channel.

She's one of the major contributors...

to reaching a million subscribers...

(Mom, help me get out of here.)

She's one of those...

(Unexpected things keep happening so frequently.)

- who played a major role... - How cute.

I wanted to let our children play...

I invited our children as well...

because Tae Ri and Ellie...

contributed a lot to my channel's success.

Likewise, Yoon Seo and Yeong Seo helped Hyun Yi become more popular.

Also, the reason why Eun Hyeong is so popular these days is...

- Doesn't she owe it to Hyeon Jo? - Hyeon Jo.

That's why I asked them to bring their kids.

I hope many people will watch this. Let's go.

She's having fun in there alone.

- Ji Hye, you're so good at it. - You're amazing.

- How do you... - Did I do okay?

- Absolutely. - You didn't make a single mistake.

I'll get there first.

(At that time, Uncle Kwang Kyu is playing with the children.)

I'm going up on the trampoline.

- What did you say? - I'm going over there.

(Hitting)

(Counterattacking)

(One more time)

What did you say?

I'm going to jump on the trampoline.

- Are you leaving? - I'll show you how I do a split.

Kwang Kyu... That's so funny.

- The kids like Kwang Kyu a lot. - Right.

Why?

- Let's hurry up and do the shoot. - Exactly.

- We'll finish the shoot quickly. - I'll jump on the trampoline too.

Hyun Yi and Eun Hyeong, please come.

Those two kids play well without their moms.

Right.

Tae Ri, look after the other kids while I'm shooting the video.

Oh, okay, Mom.

Thank you.

I can trust her with them, right?

- Let's go and do the shoot. - Let's hurry up.

Okay. We're good to go.

It's hard.

It's not easy. This is why...

- Exactly. - the Mom Needs a Break segment...

- is loved by many people. - Oh, my. This is awesome.

I prepared this for you...

- Really? - with love.

- Hold on. - My dear Hyun Yi and Eun Hyeong.

We need an alcoholic drink to go with this. Oh, we have it.

Of course. I know you want to get drunk.

- Very much. - Right?

I think I need four separate brains.

- Every mom does. - Right.

I thought moms needed a break from time to time...

and started the Mom Needs a Break segment.

Why do you...

Help me fly to the end of the world.

(Tae Ri and Yeong Seo are having fun without their moms.)

Those two kids play well without their moms.

- Kids love to do it. - Right.

(The shoot is going smoothly.)

Mom. Tae Ri.

Tae Ri.

Tae Ri.

- Twenty times for each, okay? - Tae Ri.

- Tae Ri. - I'll push you 20 times too.

(Ellie wants to play with Tae Ri and Yeong Seo.)

Tae Ri.

(She loves her sister so much that she asks only for her sister.)

Push me 20 times, okay?

(And Seo Jin looks only at Ellie.)

I'll push you. I want to push you.

- Wait. You might get hurt. - I'll do it.

(He stops her quickly.)

- Okay. Four. - Let's do it.

(He stopped Ellie quickly so that she wouldn't fall down.)

- Five. - That's twenty.

Are you done with the swing?

(Skillful)

Stop. Okay?

I'll do it. I'll go on the swing.

- Ellie, you don't mind me... - She wants...

- pushing you hard, right? - to play on the swing.

- I do. - Don't. Push her gently.

Ellie is younger than you, so push her gently.

- Should I push her gently? - Yes.

Gently.

Here we go. Yeong Seo, keep holding it.

- You're strong. - Okay.

It's fun, right?

(Giggling)

She's laughing hard.

(Ellie's smile makes his dimples deeper.)

No, that's not it. Do it like this.

- Ellie, your time is up. - Help me get off the swing.

Over there. I'll go first.

- I'll go there too. - I'll go first.

- Hey, stop. - I want to go there too.

I'll go there too.

Tae Ri, don't leave me alone here.

I can't keep up with you. Hold my hand.

Ellie, catch up.

- Tae Ri went that way. - Give me your hand.

She'll come out over there.

Let's go this way.

Come on. Let's go this way.

(I'll take you there.)

I want to go there with Tae Ri.

You can't go that way by yourself.

(Let's go to your sister together.)

Let's go to your sister, okay?

(She's held in his arms.)

She's so cute. She's plump and everything.

Watching the kids play made me happy.

Some may think I hate it, but I like watching kids play.

I believe that kids should have fun, running around.

On top of that, there was one I adored.

I like things like that.

Your sister is over there.

(Ellie starts to hold Uncle Seo Jin's hand.)

Grab it. Come on.

(He lifts Ellie up whenever she wants.)

- Do you want to ride it, Ellie? - Yes.

(They got glued together.)

(Sucking)

Thank you.

(The date with Ellie is successful.)

To be honest, I was surprised.

- His eyes were full of affection. - Right.

- Looking at someone else's child... - Right.

Not many people are like him.

He adored her so much and took good care of her.

- Honestly, I was so happy. - I see.

- You look much younger now. - Kids around her age...

- Do I look okay? Do you like it? - You look way better now.

I see that you've recovered a lot.

- I saw her right after the surgery. - Right. You saw me...

- right after. - I saw her right after.

She was very shocked. I was like this.

Jae Jun saw her and said,

"Did Ji Hye eat very spicy food?"

He said, "So spicy!"

It requires time.

You look much better after doing it.

- It needs like... - It's...

- two months. - It's so different.

Is that Hyeon Jo?

(Crying)

(The shooting pauses.)

(Someone's crying fills the cafe.)

No.

Did you make him cry?

- Did you make him cry? - He couldn't see his mom.

Did you make him cry?

(Running)

(Hyeon Jo is wailing.)

- He couldn't see his mom. - What is it?

- He cried because he missed you. - Did he play well?

- He was playing well. - Is that so?

I gave him a mandarin because he wanted some.

Hold on.

Did he hit you?

(What happened between Kwang Kyu and Hyeon Jo?)

No? He really likes mandarins.

(15 minutes before the incident)

(Kwang Kyu is taking close care of Hyeon Jo.)

Tiger?

Yes. It's a tiger.

Right? Tiger.

What is this?

What is it? An elephant.

An elephant.

Hyeon Jo also has a big belly.

(Standing up)

Hyeon Jo? It's not over.

(He moves to find something else to play with.)

Where are you going? What do you want to play with?

Which one?

(He goes to the diaper bag.)

(Picking)

Mandarins? Do you want mandarins?

Mandarins? Do you want mandarins?

Do you want mandarins?

(This is amazing.)

Here.

I'll give you mandarins.

Mandarins, Hyeon Jo.

(He quickly delivers the mandarins so he doesn't cry.)

(He's satisfied for now.)

Please.

Don't cry.

(Your mom is in the middle of a shooting.)

(He moves with the mandarin.)

Okay.

Do you want to go there? Go on.

Let's go inside.

(Hyeon Jo wants to be alone.)

Where do you want to go?

(The man keeps following him.)

This is trouble.

Where do you want to go?

I'll peel this for you.

Goodness.

(On the brink)

Here.

Here.

(Hyeon Jo burst into tears, overwhelmed with frustration.)

Did you make him cry?

Goodness.

I thought my ears were going to tear.

Actually,

I took good care of my nephews and nieces.

After a few minutes passed,

he started looking around. That's when I knew.

It's here.

(Finally tasting the reality of parenthood)

He's looking for his parents. It's here.

I'm going to live alone from now on.

(Kwang Kyu declares to live alone.)

- Come here. - Let's carry on with him.

- We can carry him. - We can carry the baby.

Let's sit.

Your perspective really changes...

after giving birth.

That's right. It certainly changes.

We have a one-day babysitter here.

He's a really nice babysitter.

- He looks kind. - He's really nice.

- It's okay. - It's too big.

I guess he's a famous babysitter.

He's famous nationwide,

and he's from Pasadena, LA.

- Can he speak English as well? - He'd speak good English.

(He's careful not to make Hyeon Jo cry.)

Right.

Goodness.

Our audio is overlapping.

(He cries whenever Kwang Kyu touches him.)

- You don't want to go? - Is that so?

Tell your dad to come.

What does your dad do for a living?

- Tell your dad to come. - Dad is here.

Dad is here!

- Tell your dad to come. - Dad is here.

(His dad is really here!)

- Thank you so much. - Dad.

- Goodness. - Dad.

Goodness. It's Dad.

He didn't recognise you.

Why is he crying? His dad is here.

(Hyeon Jo and Kwang Kyu spent a short but intense time.)

(Hyeon Jo and Kwang Kyu spent a short but intense time.)

Did you have fun with the Grumpy Secretary uncles?

(Throwing)

Why are you throwing the apple?

Was Kwang Kyu very scary?

(We can feel his heart even if he doesn't say it.)

Peace came after you came.

He's surely his blood.

He didn't cry after Dad came.

- The way I see it, - Yes?

Hyeon Jo will become a singer.

Hyeon Jo. Seriously.

Kim Kyung Ho. Grow your hair long like him.

(It's scary even to think about it again.)

But you're so cute like this, aren't you?

Why did you cry so much?

(Smiling)

Is he smiling?

(Is he smiling?)

Are you smiling because Dad came?

- He's smiling at you. - Right.

Are you smiling because Dad came? Thank you.

You never smiled before.

(Feeling sad)

While you're talking with me,

Seo Jin is taking care of the kids.

No. I took care of them before.

I think...

- you're resting away from them. - Hey.

- You're resting away from them. - Hey.

It's not easy to take care of your son.

- It's not easy, right? - Three minutes with him...

equals one hour with them.

- That's true. - Right.

(Seo Jin feeds them.)

Let's eat.

What are you eating?

Do you want to eat just one? You can eat just one.

(Dipping honey)

(A 5-year-old who's had some honey pizza before)

(Feeling proud)

Jae Jun...

is in the phase where he's struggling with parenting.

It is exhausting. That's why I'm curious.

It's easy to take care of a child when he or she is like this.

When they grow, it's not childcare, it's education.

When they enter the phase of education,

you have to communicate...

- with their schools and teachers. - Right.

You have to meet the parents,

arrange their academy schedules,

and arrange everything they wear and use,

even their study materials.

- You do all that. - I do all that.

It's called planning.

If you're really...

doing 70 to 80 percent of that...

This is what it is.

When men...

experiences parenting...

I want to ask the men.

I want to ask Seo Jin or Kwang Kyu.

Uncle Seo Jin!

We have a question.

Uncle Seo Jin!

We have a question.

We're curious about the male perspective.

When a man and woman do something together,

up to what percentage of that work do you think you can take?

Like recycling, doing the laundry...

- Washing dishes. - Housework?

- Yes. - Housework and childcare.

- Yes. - Childcare as well.

Childcare should be done together.

- Together. - Yes.

I think I'll put more care into childcare.

I don't think I can do housework because I'm not good at it.

- That's cute. - That's not cute.

I don't think I can do housework because I'm not good at it.

- That's cute. - That's not cute.

- What's cute? - What's cute?

- Why did you say that? - I just found that cute.

- Yes. - I'm interested in childcare.

You're interested in childcare.

He's interested. That's cute.

(She's in fan mode.)

I love you.

(Mom?)

What is it? Do you hear Mom?

(Yes. Mom is fangirling.)

Dad loves you too.

(Stop, Mom.)

- It's nice. - He loves children.

Have you ever taken care...

of such young nephews or nieces?

When my niece was young.

Do you have plans to do it again?

Life is easier without kids.

I have two kids.

You can tell me.

(I have two kids.)

(The Mommies get annoyed.)

- How is our life? - I have...

- I have two kids. - Well...

As long as you have a happy family...

- I'm curious. - You have so many questions.

It's not like you're going to come as our guest here.

I want to get some minutes while you're here.

Do you tend to be in touch with your girlfriend often?

Or do you just reply to the messages for the day?

I don't keep in touch so often.

- You don't? - Even if you love her so much?

Even if you love her so much? Is that cute?

That's my style.

That's cute!

I also have a question.

(Eating)

(Eating)

(He's eating the food the children left.)

It's cold,

but it's still good.

(Eating)

(His day was particularly hard.)

(Who am I? Where am I?)

(Is this the sweet taste of getting out of childcare?)

(He finishes a plate of pasta.)

We're all done with the shooting.

Let's all say goodbye.

The managers should also come and say goodbye.

The managers should also come and say goodbye.

Come, children.

He's so exhausted.

Hold hands and come together.

(Trudging)

Come here. Let's say goodbye.

It's over.

Kwang Kyu.

He worked so well.

- Goodness. - It was...

Are you all right?

- I'm all right. - Kwang Kyu.

- I feel so bad. - Finally,

"Gwanjong Un-ni."

- Let's go! - Let's go!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

Do this.

Let's go!

(He shakes his finger.)

- Thank you. - Well done.

Thank you.

(The shooting ends.)

Goodness.

Thank you so much.

This is so good.

I wasn't going to eat it because it was cold,

- It's good. - but I tried a little, and...

- It's so good. - Right.

- It's so good and spicy. - It was cold but good.

- This didn't exist before. - It didn't.

There were no kids cafes.

There aren't many places for kids to play these days.

So the mothers let the children play...

at kids cafes like this...

while they drink some tea.

They also sell alcohol.

They also sell alcohol.

You can get some beer with grilled pollack.

Thank you.

It's quite something to drink beer at kids cafes.

Kwang Kyu really...

Hello.

- You're here. - Hey.

- Hello. - Jae Wan.

- Goodness. - Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

They're the managers.

(She gets carried.)

Mom, you didn't give me the cake.

I'll give it to you. Come here.

(Feeling proud)

Could you stay until my husband comes?

He'll be here in 15 minutes.

Did I cut the conversation?

No. They suffered so much...

while taking care of the children.

They're all exhausted.

Thank you.

Well...

It was a good experience.

(A white lie)

Aren't they still cute? Don't you want to have children?

I'm...

- I'm going to live alone. - Really?

They're really cute.

You'll adore your own children.

I really recommend it.

(I really recommend it.)

I didn't really carry them a lot.

Why does my shoulder hurt so much?

- It's because you were bending. - Is that so?

You followed the child around because he was small.

- Is that so? - I carried all the children.

It's because you were bending.

- My shoulder hurts. - You were running around too.

- You were hunching. - Right.

- We should drink... He's here. - He's here.

- Seong Gi is here. - Seong Gi is here.

- They're my managers. - Hello.

Nice to meet you.

(Hong Seong Gi, Lee Hyun Yi's husband)

We should go home and eat.

(The dads are in charge of the children tonight.)

Bye.

- Bye. - Bye.

Tae Ri.

- Tae Ri. - Thank you.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Bye. - Bye, Tae Ri.

- Goodbye. - Bye.

All the best.

Bye.

Bye. Thank you.

Bye!

Yes!

(We're finally free from the children.)

Yes!

Is that beer?

Make somaek.

Goodness.

We should eat.

We should enjoy too.

- Let's go somewhere nice. - Okay. Let's go.

Let's go.

I suddenly feel nervous seeing them.

(I suddenly feel nervous.)

Can't we end it here?

Why are they suddenly like that?

- Let's go. - Let's go.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

(It's a golden time the Mommies can't miss.)

(My Star's Schedule: 6:30pm, afterparty at a live club)

This thrill.

The thumping noise. Back in the days...

When you enter Boss nightclub.

- Do you remember Juliana? - Goodness.

I feel excited.

Goodness.

Goodness.

Yes!

(A live club perfect for a party)

Turn off the music.

Goodness.

(Exclaiming)

Turn off the music.

What?

The bass.

(She gets a tambourine.)

(The energy is building.)

(Looking away)

Where should we sit?

Here.

(Deeply immersed)

(Confiscating them)

These are my hoop earrings.

They're earrings.

Who is that man?

(Get rid of the tambourines.)

I love the music.

It's so nice.

My heart is beating. What should I do with it?

My heart is racing right now.

You're so different from us.

- Aren't you happy? - Maybe he's not.

Enjoy your life.

We always went to pork belly BBQ restaurants.

It's our first time being in such a place.

We can't go to a restaurant...

for a gathering...

because we don't have time.

We need a place that serves both food and drinks.

We have to have fun quickly and go home.

We need to go to a place...

- where we can do everything. - That's right.

Goodness.

I really looked forward to it because of these members.

Eun Hyeong and Ji Hye.

We're really close,

but no one really set up a stage for us.

- That's right. - I thought,

"What will happen today?"

I came very excited.

- That's so nice. - So nice.

So nice. Seriously.

Are you sleeping?

(Are you sleeping?)

- He looks so tired. - I'm worried about the children.

We didn't leave them at the daycare.

They're with their dads.

- It's okay. - I know, right?

Their dads would be having such a hard time.

- Their dads. - Their blood relatives took them.

- Right. - It's okay.

We can be comfortable.

- They're biological fathers. - Right.

- They can take care of them. - Right.

Everyone knew the Hakdong Swallowtail.

I forgot about it.

I really had all the fun I wanted.

That's why I can focus on parenting now.

Did you have a nickname?

- Weirdo? - A nickname?

Weirdo?

You had nicknames?

(Culture shock)

Didn't you have a nickname when you went out for fun?

- When I went out for fun? - Yes.

I didn't go out so much.

I used to brainstorm ideas for the comedy show.

You didn't?

I shared 50 cans of beer with someone.

With Do Yeon.

Do Yeon can drink beer endlessly.

- We're beer killers. - Really?

- With Do Yeon? - Yes.

- You get really full. - We drank 50 cans.

I used to drink a crate of beer before.

- Really? - Yes.

You drink well.

I think...

I have a long bladder.

I'm sorry.

People...

- with a long bladder drink well. - Right?

- My crotch length is long. - Crotch?

It's long.

The basketball and baseball players...

It feels like I'm in a dream.

I never thought I'd talk about my bladder...

in front of a celebrity I really liked.

You keep...

In front of the people I really like.

The mothers...

really speak boldly.

- Here. Chicken. - "Here."

- It's warm. - Thank you.

Eat.

The chicken is so tasty.

Why aren't you eating?

- You ate a lot earlier. - No.

I don't have the energy.

That's right. That's why mothers lose weight.

It's not easy to take care of children.

- It's not easy. - Right.

Is it because of Hyeon Jo?

(Is it because of Hyeon Jo?)

It's because of Hyeon Jo.

It's because of Hyeon Jo, right?

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have given birth.

I'm sorry.

(He starts choking from laughing too hard.)

Is it something to be sorry about?

Is it that bad?

No.

- Is it that bad? - No.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have...

conceived.

I shouldn't have used my womb.

(The adult-only spicy talk is too much for Kwang Kyu.)

You conceived?

But Kwang Kyu,

you only took care of Hyeon Jo.

- I was worried he'd get hurt. - You were worried.

He was on the horse toy,

and he almost bumped into things.

Goodness.

Why that...

Hey.

To a baby?

People used to be like that before.

They wouldn't have done that to a baby.

What does that make me?

Whenever a child was doing something dangerous,

they'd do something like that.

There isn’t anything like that these days.

I think children should run around and play.

I don't say anything...

even if children upstairs run around like crazy.

Really?

You're such a good neighbour.

How cute.

(How cute.)

In the past,

I also thought,

"Why do they make so much fuss while raising their children?"

But after giving birth,

things changed.

That's why I can't have children.

I think I'd struggle so much with my child.

- Because you'd get overprotective. - Yes. Especially for daughters.

I think I'd get so stressed...

when I have a child.

Did you have the opportunity?

To get a child.

Opportunity...

I could just create that.

- You have to get married. - Right.

Do you want to get married?

- Not at the moment. - No.

What kind of person do you like?

Someone cute?

Adu du.

(He's shocked.)

Adu du.

Not someone with problems.

(Not someone with problems.)

How cute.

Eat, Eun Hyeong.

He's cuter.

He's cuter.

I rarely lose my phone.

- Right. - People would bring it to you.

They wouldn't even take it.

Why are you saying it like that?

It's scary.

I'm the only one who can insult my husband.

That's right. I know what you mean.

I can insult my husband,

- but if others do it, I feel bad. - Right. You feel annoyed.

That wasn't my intention, but if it came out like that,

- I'd like to apologise. - No.

I'm joking.

I think he had a hard time because of Hyeon Jo.

Kwang Kyu looked...

very skinny earlier.

Is Hyeon Jo sleeping?

He's stepping on my stomach now.

Kwang Kyu has to come now.

(Kwang Kyu has to come now.)

Please come.

Hyeon Jo wants to see you now.

Shall we sing?

- Now? - Already?

- So suddenly? - We have to start.

- We have to build the energy. - Okay.

Do it if you want.

Right.

Shall we start from Cheongdam-dong Whistle?

- Who's that? - Whistle?

- Cheongdam-dong. - It's Hakdong Swallowtail.

Swallowtail. I'm sorry.

- I have a bad memory. - Don't go first.

If you go first, we'll be discouraged.

- Are you... - You can go first.

- I'll go first. - You go.

- I'll do it. - Yes.

Hyun Yi can sing.

- Okay. That's nice. - A karaoke..

Hyun Yi sings well.

Right. Hyun Yi sings well.

I always...

It's been a while since I last went out for fun.

It was five years ago.

(It was 5 years ago.)

(Ivy)

(A somewhat dated song selection)

Those are old...

It's been so long since I last sang.

The songs I know ended in the past.

I only know old songs.

It came out a little.

(Bring up the energy.)

(It's time to sing along.)

(Touch)

(Closing his mouth)

(Working moms...)

(are always short on time.)

(Starving for time...)

(to have fun.)

(to have fun.)

(Shouting to quench her thirst)

(The stress of being a working mom is gone.)

Amazing.

- My throat... - You got 97 points.

- My throat didn't feel good. - You got 97 points.

- It was the best. - You're so good.

That was incredible.

In a way, this is our little act of rebellion.

We don't normally get to have fun like this.

- We don't. We don't have time. - So today,

let loose and shake off some stress before you leave.

- Sounds good. - Yes.

Please support us.

We need your support.

- Have all the fun you want. - Let me sing a song then.

- Eun Hyeong first. - Let me sing a song.

(Grumpy Secretaries will set the stage for you.)

(My Mom, enjoy yourselves to the fullest!)

(A serenade filled with her love as a fan...)

(she's been holding back while raising a child)

(Set the mood.)

(I love you)

I've never seen something like this.

("Sexy Man" by Space A)

I'm sitting in the wrong place.

I shouldn't have sat here.

(Hyeon Jo, close your eyes.)

(She's already immersed.)

(Amazed)

(Peekaboo, startled)

(She's ready to become a free woman.)

(Why are you doing this to me?)

(Building to the climax)

(No, even if I)

(Die)

(You're the only one)

(So please)

(Sweating)

(I love you)

(Okay)

You're cute.

Cut it.

She's losing her breath.

(I can't handle it anymore.)

Take the mic away from her.

Take the mic away from her.

(He can't take it away from her.)

Let's go.

Oh, my goodness.

They must've really had a hard time because of their kids.

Well, I understand.

I feel bad.

- I felt bad for them. - Why? What's the reason?

It felt like...

they'd been holding a lot for a long time.

I'm glad they could release some stress.

(A music video is playing.)

Oh, my gosh.

Is that Ji Hye?

I can barely sing because I'm out of breath.

- That's not Ji Hye. - What?

Is that Ji Hye?

"Closer" is a great song.

"My Lips like Warm Coffee" is amazing too.

(It's a S#arp music video. Where is My Star Ji Hye?)

(Comparing the faces)

- Ji Hye, is that you? - "Is that you?"

That's another member. That's me.

That's me.

- That's me. - She's a different woman.

What are you talking about? It's me.

The faces are different.

(The suspicions intensified.)

Do I look that different?

The faces are completely different.

- This is her! - Is that her?

- That's Ji Hye? Is that you? - Hey!

Who is she?

- Who is that woman? - Who is it?

- That's her. - Where's My Star?

Are you mocking me? You're so mean.

No.

(Her face has a long history.)

The three of us should sing this.

- We should sing this song. - The three of us should sing it.

("Come A Come" by My Stars)

(Flopping)

The three of us should stand here.

(She's ready to shine at the center.)

- You go to the back. - Okay.

You know the move, right? Move your left arm. I'll move my right arm.

(Here come the working moms.)

(Shaking off the exhaustion of parenting,)

(they're flapping their wings powerfully.)

(Their teamwork rivals the original singers.)

(Flustered)

(Even if you die)

(Don't ever come looking for me)

Jae Jun, don't look for me!

Hyeon Jo, just grow up on your own!

Don't look for me!

(She shouted to blow away the struggles of being a working mom.)

- That was a huge stress release. - I know.

It was amazing.

We've done all this.

- At least sing one song for us. - Seo Jin,

let's sing "The Blue in You" together.

(My Star requested a duet.)

- Would you... - Yes. Just once. Please.

I went to karaoke with him a few times.

Whenever I sang,

he only pointed out...

- how bad my singing was. - He did?

- And he never sang himself. - Even off camera?

On camera or off.

(Seo Jin can sing.)

He's a good singer.

(Only 1 witness)

(Only Hwa Jeong has ever heard him sing.)

(That's how rare his singing is.)

(It's revealed now.)

("The Blue in You" by Kim Hyun Chul and Lee So Ra)

What? No way. I might cry.

I'll hand the mic to you.

(Her heart is pounding.)

It isn't working. Try this one.

(One of the mics doesn't work at the worst possible timing.)

Use this one. Why isn't it working?

You're good.

(Under My Star's lead,)

(they're carefully singing together.)

(He may be prickly, but his singing voice is sweet.)

Let's share the mic.

(She moves closer to share the mic with him.)

(Capturing the rare moment on his phone)

(It's time to fully take it in.)

It's so nice.

You're good!

(He suddenly feels shy.)

(I have to admit. He's good.)

(I envy her.)

I've never seen him sing before.

It was so nice.

I was happy to see Ji Hye after a long time.

I'm glad...

they were able to let off some stress.

Our show didn't do anything special for them.

I'm relieved they at least had a chance to let loose.

There's nothing we did for them.

I'm glad that we could buy them a drink,

and we helped them let off some stress.

I was so happy and grateful.

I feel recharged today.

I think I can move forward with a happier mindset.

- We sang earlier. - Yes.

I think we could release an album.

I don't think so.

Eun Hyeong, I don't think so.

- Give it some thought. - I don't agree with you.

- Ji Hye, let's put out a carol. - Yes.

- Don't do that. - A carol.

- Don't do that. Calm down. - Let's drop a carol.

- You can just sing the chorus. - Calm down.

- We'll sing the verse. - Hold your horses.

I'm sorry.

- They're too excited. - You...

Aren't they just trying to get a piece of your album's success?

- It means we shouldn't do that. - He got us.

- It means we shouldn't do that. - He got us.

He got us.
