(Dreaming of a Freaking Fairy Tale)

It's a dangerous place outside of the bed.

I won't leave.

Do you truly think...

the bed is a safe area?

There you go!

Have you, a person in their own world,

met someone who drags you out...

by the collar?

When you do, you'll end up cussing right away.

But the outside world is nice.

There is more delicious food outside.

(Episode 8: A Very Old Reconciliation)

Don't go to Baek Ddong.

What is wrong with you?

You shouldn't go to a guy's place late at night.

Isn't this also a guy's place?

Is that why you're still hanging on to the bathrobe belt?

Right.

No.

It's nothing like that.

What is up with him?

Just stay like this.

Stay here.

I'm not a dangerous guy.

But he's a mystery.

To me, you're the most mysterious guy.

What do you want to know about me?

Everything.

Everything about you makes me curious.

But I must go home now.

Oh, home?

Why? Did you reconcile?

She wants Hanwoo together.

She's requesting a sincere reconciliation, so I must go.

Then we should sleep next time.

Sorry?

What do you mean by sleep?

Didn't you want to swap places for the night?

Oh, right.

So you were sincere about swapping places for the night.

I wanted to prove to you.

Prove that it wasn't a lie.

You won't get any meat.

(Kang Hwa Jin)

Why won't my feet move?

It hasn't even been midnight.

But this Cinderella leaves for meat.

Had he stopped me a bit more, I would've returned.

I'm simply no better than an innkeeper worm or meat.

What's wrong with me?

How annoying.

- Here. - Yes.

- Here I go. - Wait.

Welcome, Jae Rim.

- Welcome. - Welcome.

Let's go.

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

Jae Rim.

I made your sisters drunk first.

You know Hwa Jin becomes gentle when she gets drunk.

Oh, right.

Listen.

I got this back.

(Mount Sapae)

Doesn't he look like Cha Eun Woo?

He's too handsome.

We should've met sooner.

If you had met Dad sooner, he would've given you a harder time.

Jae Rim. Today, I want to talk about you,

not your dad.

Do you truly not think of us as your family?

I simply thought...

we could never become a real family.

That was why I acted indifferently and meanly on purpose.

I'm sorry.

You can be mean at times.

We'll still be a family, you know?

Hey, Shin Jae Rim.

These monsters.

They're already sober.

Drink more. Come on, guys.

All right.

Don't drink, Jae Rim.

What did you put inside it, Mom?

It's good.

Soo Jin. I'm sorry.

I had no idea he was a scumbag.

It's okay.

It's my fault in the end.

I was the one who dated him.

You did nothing wrong.

Date all kinds of guys.

Marrying the right guy is what's important.

Stop going on about marriage.

I'm happy, okay? Stop nagging already.

Do you hate living with us now that we're adults?

That's not it.

I'm worried you'll get stressed out when I depend on you...

when time gets hard.

You can depend on me when it gets tough.

I grew up to be a fine person,

all to become a helpful person to you, Mom.

Think more highly of me.

You're right.

My eldest has grown up to be a fine girl.

Same here.

You can depend on me.

I'll be at your beck and call.

"Beck and call?"

- Come here. I'll be at yours. - What is it?

- Your beck and call! - Look at them getting along well.

- I'm your beck and call. - Let go. It's hot.

"It snowed as if..."

"love was falling..."

"from the memory hole?"

What does this even mean?

How am I supposed to draw this?

Goodness.

I've removed the lens for you.

You're a lovely child too.

Good grief.

He's a nobleman, isn't he?

Flirting with me like that was foul play.

Come to your senses, Shin Jae Rim.

Don't get bewitched by him.

Even the smallest move can cause a spark.

You must be careful at all times.

"From the memory hole."

"From the memory hole?"

(Sungjin University Hospital)

Good gracious.

Why did you admit yourself into the hospital again?

The doctor told me your results were fine.

Isn't it obvious? I am terribly sick.

The results being fine is the problem.

I can't eat a thing. My mouth feels too dry.

I can't even drink water, you know?

That's why I can't have instant food like this one.

Really, that gluttony of yours.

You're really digging in.

You're faking your illness to get attention, right?

Mind your manners to your father, will you?

Don't speak to me like that.

If you're bored, shall I introduce you to a lady I know?

She's almost 60 and has all her teeth. She's not bad.

She's healthy and must've lived a long life, so no.

I told you men like us must consider women like mere rocks.

They're not rocks, so stop saying that.

Shouldn't we also enjoy what others do?

Didn't your very own mother cause this scar?

That wicked woman.

Dad.

You shouldn't say that in front of your son.

I'm saying it because you are before me, okay?

Are you taking your mom's side?

Please, stop.

- Can't you forget about her now? - I can't.

If you behave like this because you like someone,

I'm cutting ties with you.

That woman is pretending to like and love you.

But she's only using you.

That might not be true.

Must she hurt you to come to your senses?

Disobey me, and I'll kick you out with only your underwear on.

(VIP Room)

Your mom is having an affair.

She's leaving with that man.

No. That can't be true.

Mom! Don't go!

Mom!

Don't go, Mom!

Please don't go, Mom!

Never will I be able to forget that.

Welcome.

Jae Rim.

She is the one who introduced me to Chungdam Heaven.

But she's never been here.

So I brought her with my invitation.

I see.

Nice to meet you.

She's the matriarch of Korea's movie industry.

Hi. My name is Lily Cho.

Allow me to lead the way.

Let's go.

Why would you set up the Christmas tree this early?

It's always been like this...

to maintain the Christmas vibe as long as possible.

Chungdam Heaven must really love Christmas.

That is the very reason we hold a lighting ceremony...

and have a resort solely for the lighting ceremony.

I can't wait to see it.

We have to light it up when Mr. Moon gets here.

Or he sulks.

Who are you saying will sulk?

Get it ready.

Now then, I will turn the tree lights on.

- Gosh. - Oh, my.

How pretty.

It's gorgeous.

- What does it say? - Hey.

"You are super popular but will marry soon."

This was mine.

Why did you have to pick this one?

That could be fate.

Dan A is his fiancee. They could soon get married.

Aren't I right, Dan A?

That was totally mine!

Shin Jae Rim.

She irritates me in every single way.

When do I teach her a lesson?

Is she still working here?

Why haven't you fired her?

I can't do anything, can I?

She even ignored my warning last time.

Girls like her scare me.

You told her nicely, didn't you?

Why are you so soft-hearted?

Over here!

Please excuse me.

- Yes? - How shameless of you...

to still work here.

Of course.

After all, I didn't do anything wrong.

Wipe it, will you?

Stop it, Ri Na.

There are thoughtless girls like her...

because you're kind to anyone.

Please wait a moment.

Someone like her should be trampled over like this.

Even so, she's my worker.

How frustrating.

Your eyes fixed on the ground suits you perfectly.

Baek Do Hong and Moon Cha Min.

Both are way out of your league.

Quit dreaming about the impossible.

Hold back.

Hold back.

Hold back, Darn Cha Min.

You're being too harsh when she's diligently wiping the floor.

She's nothing but someone who cleans up my mess.

In short, a servant.

Don't hold back.

You matter too.

He's right. What's the point of living like this?

I don't care now.

It seems you're dying to fight with me.

In a real fight,

you should be determined to risk your life and go all out.

Die like this,

and whose life do you think will be a waste? Yours or mine?

Shall we die and find out...

who will randomly be born rich in our next lives?

No, thank you.

Whether I dream of the impossible or not...

is mine to decide!

Director.

This worker must be crazy.

If a customer is crazy, so must the worker be.

You never had to read the air,

so you have no idea how loud you are. Do you?

Jae Rim isn't the one hitting on me.

It's me who has feelings for her.

Goodness. Jae Rim is lucky.

Director Baek Do Hong openly confessed to her.

Will she become Cinderella?

She's here.

Hey, Jae Rim.

Are you quitting now?

What are you saying?

I'm scared I might get fired, okay?

How come? You have Director Baek to go to, no?

It seemed like he was head over heels in love with you.

Hey. Jae Rim is also in love with Director Baek.

Mr. Moon. Do we need to hire a new worker?

What is wrong with you?

Can't you see what a hard worker I am?

Let's get to work, okay?

You haven't wiped the glasses.

Nor have you cleaned the place well.

Mr. Moon.

My apologies for making a scene before the customers.

Forget about it.

Mr. Moon.

To be honest, I don't like Baek Do Hong.

You're the one I like, you idiot.

That woman is pretending to like and love you.

But she's only using you.

What does that make Baek Do Hong?

He was serious to the point of confessing to you before others.

Did you use him?

Sorry?

If you have a sense of conscience, act with sincerity.

Are you implying I have no sense of conscience or sincerity?

I wouldn't know, would I? You should know yourself.

I was the idiot.

What's wrong with me?

Is it Dad's curse?

Are you okay?

About what?

I declared my feelings for Jae Rim.

"Declared?"

But what can you do?

You have a fiancee to marry soon.

Shouldn't you back off now?

I'll take great care of the girl...

you played the fool with.

You should take care of yourself now.

Come at me.

- Come here. - You little...

- Come here! - I did martial arts!

Really.

- You little... - Gosh.

Come here!

Record all of this.

Come over here!

- Let go. Do it now. - I will after you do it first.

- How old are you? - That's my line.

- Show me your ID card. - Show me yours.

- Do it. - You do it.

- Let go. - No, you let go.

- In 1, 2, 3. - In 1, 2, 3.

- I knew it, you punk! Let go! - Let go of me!

You little...

Seriously.

Darn it.

Shin Jae Rim!

- Lily? - Oh, no.

I got the wrong person.

I only wanted you two to stop.

I simply hit the other head to be fair.

You really...

Like I wouldn't know.

You've simply lost it again and are making me confused.

Only I can bring you back to your senses.

What if I lost all of my hair?

Jae Rim. Why did you not take my side?

Why did I have to?

"Why?"

Aren't I your CEO?

Your salary is from me!

I see. So, a CEO can act selfishly.

"Act selfishly?"

I have always lived like this.

You can act selfishly with me,

but not with Baek Do Hong.

Are you taking his side even now?

Didn't you tell me to treat Baek Do Hong with sincerity?

Didn't you tell me you didn't like him?

So what do you want me to do?

Take my side even if I act selfishly!

No way!

Even if you're the CEO, you shouldn't live as you fit.

Being with you makes me confused. It drives me crazy.

And me? Do you think I don't get confused when I'm with you?

Is that so?

Then, my apologies.

For a mere worker to make the CEO confused every day.

"A mere worker?" Did you really have to put it like that?

Are you going to keep that up?

Yes, I will!

I really have no idea what to do whenever I'm with you!

- Seriously! - Where are you going?

I'm not done talking yet. Come back here. Come back!

I'm not done talking yet!

It hurts.

(Chungdam Heaven)

Do Hong.

We came back to see you, Jae Rim.

I wanted to apologize for the commotion earlier.

Is your head okay, Do Hong?

Today was a very eventful day, right?

Let's end the day with some drinks at my studio.

Okay.

You're not the only confused one.

I'm also confused, you know?

Here, listen.

One breaks down if you step on the accelerator...

and the brake at the same time.

My wish to get closer to her is getting bigger and bigger.

But I can't do it.

So,

it's driving me nuts.

Come on, say something.

Is keeping your mouth open all you can do?

This darn Chivas Regal.

What's your relationship with Mr. Moon Cha Min?

Actually, I heard you two fight in his office.

Who knows?

Even I don't know what we are.

He's such a mysterious guy.

But Mr. Moon...

He doesn't have everything.

Because he was raised without a mom, he's quite...

emotionally unstable.

Still, love him. Stay by his side and shower him with love.

How did you know about that?

To be frank with you,

I'm Cha Min's mom.

Although I left when he was young.

I was that so-called Cinderella.

"All that penniless woman knew was how to seduce men."

"And now look at her soft life."

I was looked down upon before my young son.

Just thinking about the day...

Cha Min would grow up to understand those words...

It made me feel miserable. So, I couldn't live like that.

I...

Because I wanted to become an honorable mom like the others,

I started to work.

But my mother-in-law, who was unhappy with me, took the chance...

and accused me as an adulteress.

How could she do that?

Cha Min's dad was abroad most of the time...

because of the overseas resort business.

He didn't believe a word I said.

As I was incompetent when we got divorced,

I couldn't even protect my son and got kicked out.

But you returned as a competent businesswoman.

It all happened because I had no power.

I was determined to come back as a successful woman...

so no one could get in the way of me...

getting my son back.

But I was too late.

It's too late.

Now,

Cha Min scares me the most.

He must resent those past days.

But I am too shameless to ask for forgiveness.

That is why I'm living such a cowardly life.

Are you fine with just looking at him from afar?

Why don't you talk to him?

Mr. Moon is quite warm-hearted.

I have no courage.

I'm starting to understand that wacko.

He turned out like that because he didn't receive any affection.

But what do I tell him?

He's always full of doubts.

One mistake, and I'll get hit in the stomach with Chairman Ko.

All right. Let's wake right up after I black out for a bit.

Shin Jae Rim.

I like you loads.

That was why I did it.

I'm sorry...

for being a wacko.

What a wacko.

I'm sorry.

Welcome, Mr. Moon.

What's this? What's wrong with you?

It's me, Shin Jae Rim, always on your side...

starting today.

Do you need your salary in advance?

That's not it.

You scared me.

- What is up with you? - Mr. Moon.

You used the bar yesterday, didn't you?

I did. I had some drinks alone.

Why did you do that?

How could you drink Ms. Kim Eun Ji's Chivas Regal we kept for her?

Watch your mouth.

We can simply order more of it.

Hey, listen.

Mr. Moon could lack common sense.

Let's be understanding even if he's a bit of a fool.

Right?

Cheer up.

Hey.

Remember the tteokbokki we had last time?

Can I have some of that again?

No. I'm busy.

Come on.

Mr. Moon is in his growing period.

He could grow taller.

That's all the more the reason I won't make it.

Are you hungry, Mr. Moon?

Should I make it instead?

Let's eat the tteokbokki you're craving, okay?

I'm fine. I don't want any.

Tell me when you want some.

Does that never break?

How much longer will you carry it around?

What? Does it bother you?

You look like the biggest wacko.

Who are you saying is a wacko?

Get to know him better, and you'll find out he's normal.

Which part of him do you mean?

He's got two eyes, two nostrils,

and two ears.

Show me your teeth.

Seriously.

He's even got two front teeth. Very normal, right?

- You. - Yes?

- Are you insulting me right now? - No.

Come with me.

Understood.

Is it that difficult to take my side?

Is this you protesting?

No. I'm being serious.

You little...

You're making fun of me, aren't you?

Actually,

I'm seeing you in a new light.

In what way?

If you want to know,

why don't we have a meal today?

It'll be on me.

- You'll treat me to a meal? - That's right.

You've never been treated to a meal, have you? It's delicious.

I haven't. No.

Then we're grabbing a meal together today, okay?

Okay.

(Sungjin University Hospital)

What? Gu Nam Hoon asked you that favor, too?

I couldn't refuse, okay?

I even did it twice.

Good grief, what an idiot.

What kind of a guy practices proposing to a girl?

By the way, who do you think the actual girl is?

I don't know, but I feel bad for her.

Let's go. Come on.

So he wasn't proposing to someone else,

but practicing?

(1 Unread Message)

Can we meet at the rooftop for a minute?

(Marry Me)

Soo Jin. Despite everything...

- What? - Despite everything, marry me.

Did my sister not beat you up enough?

Or did you lose it from all the beating up?

I'm prepared to get one of my guts busted.

Why must you go all out on everything?

You know I'm the kind of man to go all out.

As the eldest of a Korean family,

I hate taking responsibility and sticking to customs.

Rather than a burdensome marriage,

I want to live at ease with someone.

If that someone can be me,

you can use me all you want.

Shouldn't a proposal have some music?

"Music..."

Hey

Okay

Kang Soo Jin, the name of the one I love

My confession right now is an aggressive move

We met at the OB-GYN

And I want to live with my life companion

I'm extremely embarrassed right now

If you hate what you're seeing, run away

Despite it, will you accept my confession?

I'll go back if you reject me

You're Dr. Gu

Your confession isn't that good

You're a horse running straight towards me

Gallop

Gallop

Gallop

Your constant effort

Has won me over

(Marry Me)

What's with this nice restaurant out of the blue?

I need to bring something up, but carefully at that.

Since when were you careful?

What is it?

Know that I'm mustering up my courage, okay?

And for your sake.

I don't want you to live with a misunderstanding of the world.

I'll take out that thorn in your eyes today.

Even if it hurts, don't move.

What are you up to?

Where are you going?

The two of you must have lots to talk about.

I'll be waiting outside.

Why did you want to see me?

Before that, who are you?

Cha Min.

I'm sorry.

I'm...

I'm your mom.

"Mom?"

Too shameless,

I couldn't disclose myself as your mom.

I wanted to hide it.

But I am your mom.

Mom!

Don't go!

Mom!

- Cha Min... - Don't go, Mom!

- Please stop the car. - Mom!

- Cha Min fell down. - Mom!

You can't meet your son at any cost. That's the rule.

I'm sorry.

Please don't go, Mom!

Cha Min.

- Cha Min. - Mom!

What a sweetheart.

- My son. - Mom.

I'm over the moon when you smile.

I don't need a mom. You can leave.

I thought only I could undo what I made you go through.

After all this time?

I heard you couldn't go around without that umbrella.

- It's none of your business. - No, it is.

After all, I'm the reason behind it.

I missed you so much,

so I asked your aunt.

But little did I know Mother-in-law would come all the way there.

Though it failed in the end,

I never thought you would get hurt, too.

I didn't have an affair.

Nor were you kidnapped, Cha Min.

Your incompetent mom...

only hurt you out of love for you.

I'm sorry.

Stop lying.

I can forget about that affair and kidnapping.

You said you loved me.

Then you wouldn't have made me live...

with a misunderstanding for that long.

Dad and I...

Do you know how much pain we were in?

You came after all this time because you missed me. But what?

It was out of love?

Stop kidding me.

In the end,

you're a selfish person prioritizing yourself over me and Dad.

So what love?

Just be honest.

Are you out of alimony?

No.

Believe me.

I came to apologize sincerely.

Please, believe me, Cha Min.

Stop with the excuses.

It's really disgusting.

Cha Min...

Mom...

Where did you go?

Are you okay?

You've crossed the line.

Who do you think you are?

Why did I have to listen to her lies because of you?

"Lies?"

You call her a mom?

A person like her isn't one.

She did it out of love despite not loving me?

You call that love?

She just came to get something out of me.

It's not like that.

Then what is it? Why did she come now after leaving me years ago?

I don't understand.

Nobody would trouble...

or make the person you love suffer their entire life.

Everyone has their own circumstances.

I know it's hard to understand.

But don't doubt her love for you.

It's only hurting you.

Love doesn't exist.

Do you really think so?

Even if I want to believe it exists,

there's no way to know if it does.

Don't say anything. Just feel it.

Love can't be put to words. Nor can it be understood with our heads.

But it's definitely in our hearts.

How can she not love you?

Mom!

She has always loved you.

Just like how Earth keeps spinning around despite us...

not feeling it,

even though we can't see love,

love is always within us.
