(Durian's Affair)

(All characters, organizations,
and events in this drama are fictitious.)

(Animals were filmed
according to guidelines.)

Just like that. Keep doing that.

When you do that,
your back should be like this.

Lift it. Keep kicking your feet.
Yes.

One. Like this. Okay.

Do the same with your right arm.
Keep kicking your feet.

(My Husband)

I'll be home soon.

(Episode 13)

Okay. That's it.

- Isn't it fun?
- This is fascinating.

Aren't you tired?

Not at all, sir.

Without the "sir."

Now, try to get there by swimming.

You'll need to practice
to get the breathing right.

Lower your upper body.

- Like this?
- Yes.

Try doing what I told you.

All right. Try this.

Like this.

You have to move
your arms like this.

- Like this?
- Yes, Like that.

Yes. Swing your arm.
And then turn it like this.

What are you doing?

What are you doing here?

I heard you two were here.

So Jeo.

Are you not going to answer me?

Yes.

Soon,
you'll be my adoptive sister-in-law.

I already feel like
you're my family.

Don't you feel the same way,
sweetie?

Will they have dinner together
before coming home?

Deung Myung.

Don't you think I'm quite thoughtful
for an only child?

I can be better if you reward me.

What do you need?

Tell me what you want.

I'm sure you know the answer.

Dan Deung Myung.

You already have me.

How much of your thoughts
am I occupying?

Do you want it to be 100 percent?

Is that a pipe dream?

What if I only look at you
and do nothing with my life?

Will you be the breadwinner?

Of course.

Can't we go abroad
after we get married?

Even if it's just for a year?

A place without any Koreans.

That kind of place doesn't exist
in the world.

They're everywhere.

Besides,
what about your news program?

Good work. Bye.

What about Mr. Dan?

Can I get a sparkling drink?

He's going to sleep in the clubhouse
since it's been a while.

I see.

It probably means Woo Mi
is coming over to the clubhouse.

What are you doing here?

When did you...

I'll be your butler
for the time being.

You want to be a butler this time?

If I post a job listing,
dozens of people will apply.

They will fight over the job.

Do you think you can find someone
as trustworthy as me?

It costs a lot of money to maintain
this big house.

You'll need someone
to take care of the taxes...

and buy things.

How will you know
if someone steals from you?

Are you going to check
the books yourself...

and make sure
there are no discrepancies?

Will you talk
to the accountant yourself?

If the light goes out
or something breaks down,

will you call the handyman
and the gardener to get them fixed?

What about Chi Kang?

He's not alone with Ri An, is he?

I left after seeing them alone.

Go back home now.

Don't you know your own son?

- You...
- Go home.

I'm glad I skipped meals.

If you skip meals,
you can easily gain weight again.

I can get sashimi delivered, right?

I can't eat sashimi.

- Then what about yukhoe?
- That too.

Why are you such a picky eater?
That doesn't suit you.

- Then you should eat fried chicken.
- It's not that I'm a picky eater.

I just can't stomach raw meat.

If it hadn't been for me,
you would have told her...

your real name that night.

That's the right thing to do.
And that's being polite.

Anyone can look you up online.

But there's no photo of me.

She would have thought that
I just had the same name.

She's a lady
and still told me her real name.

It can be a fake name.

You must be talking about girls
you meet.

Telling them your real name at clubs
is considered weird.

That's just your opinion.

You didn't get to the next base,
did you?

"The next base?"
I'm not that good around women.

What do you mean?

Even elementary school kids
would understand what that means.

(Order complete)

Why do you assume that?

- She's very sexy.
- "Sexy?"

- You think she's sexy?
- You don't think she is?

It's hard for women above 30
to look sexy.

You know nothing about women.

Chi Kang.

I'm hungry.

Order the course
with the most amount of food.

It's my treat today.

Okay.

Gosh. That's a beautiful watch.

Mr. Dan Chi Jung...

bought this on his way back
across the ocean.

All the Dans I know are so sweet.

You can call me by my name now.

Can we order the special course?

- I know it's late.
- Sure, you can.

One special course
and two A courses, please.

I'm the only one
having the special course?

We should all get that.

- Make that three.
- Yes.

Is the manager not here today?

He was feeling under the weather.
So he went home early.

Let's order champagne.

Do you have Klang?

We have one bottle left.

We'll take it.

I want to sing.

So Jeo.

You've never been
to a karaoke place, right?

No.

Are you good at singing?

What if she starts singing
the "chang" part...

like in a pansori?

You should just...

- go without me.
- Okay.

You know, I don't have a sister.

From now on,
I'll think of you as my sister,

not an adoptive sister-in-law.

With that said...

Sweetie, can you help me
with my necklace?

It's a present for you.

It is too much.

It's a token of our sisterhood.

This is more meaningful
than buying you a new one.

You should put it on now.

Can you put it on her?

It's expensive.

My mother bought this
on her way back from Monaco.

I will...

wear it well.

Don't take it off.
It's a lucky charm.

What would you do if you were me?

This is hurting my pride as a man.

It's not your fault,
nor does it mean you're inadequate.

That's what she just prefers.

So should I just look the other way
and let her do whatever she wants?

Mother will take care of it.

She always gets her way.

So does Jang Se Mi.

I wonder
how many people are truly happy...

with their lives.

From what I've seen around me,
there aren't that many.

But you guys are doing fine.

- Do you guys fight too?
- You know how it is.

Our personalities are different.

Is it your personality? Or hers?

You can't be compatible
with someone in all areas.

I'm not saying it
because you're my brother.

But you get along with everyone.

To be honest,
the three of us would get above B pluses.

From my point of view,
Eun Sung isn't compatible with me.

And Eun Sung must think
I'm not compatible with her.

Do you think
it's her inferiority complex?

In case you sleep
with another woman...

and have a child out of wedlock
like in the old days.

I would've done it a long time ago
if I had planned to do that.

Why don't you guys
consider adoption?

That will help your wife
feel grounded.

We talked about that too.

I want to raise
a beautiful daughter.

But she said no.
She insisted on having a boy.

After spending years with her,

I realized we had nothing in common.
We even like different food.

Anyway, you're better off than me.

But you have Deung Myung.

And Ayla will give birth
to a beautiful grandchild soon.

What else could you ask for?

Right.

How is she going to face
her grandchild in the future?

What will I tell my grandchild
about her?

What about Deung Myung?

The two of them went
to a place of karaoke.

Were the three of you together
the whole time?

Yes.

You couldn't have gotten luckier
with people.

Regular people
rarely get to meet them,

but you spent time
with both Deung Myung and Ayla.

(I'll be home soon.)

Did you call him a taxi?

He didn't tell me
where he was going.

Okay.

My brother wanted to see me
when I was coming home.

You could have texted me.

You could've been asleep.

You usually go to sleep early
when you're stressed.

I know that I don't always
meet your expectations...

or fulfill your wishes.

I know it's just an excuse.

So I won't make excuses.

I'm not good enough at home.

Can't you have more compassion
toward me?

Because it didn't mean anything,

I didn't feel the need to tell you
and explain what happened.

You know my mind
is always filled with work.

I'm not the thoughtful
or friendly type,

but I have
a sense of responsibility.

When I look at So Jeo
and her mother-in-law,

I am bound to feel some compassion.

I can't help but try to give them
what they need...

because they have or know nothing.

That's all.

Will you keep doing that?

She's going to the factory
in Gapyeong on Monday.

- With you?
- No.

One of our employees will drive her.

She's going to demonstrate
how she makes kimchi.

We must do everything we can to make
the same kimchi at the factory.

If you think about it,
they're helping us.

Don't you agree?

What did Chi Kang say?

He just needed to vent.

There's nothing he can do.
He has to put up with it.

What if they talk
about getting a divorce?

How?

After all these years?

Se Mi dropped this bomb on him
after all these years.

I wonder what's wrong with her.

I really don't understand her.

Kids cause trouble
in other families.

It's the other way around
with our family.

The housekeeper left the cottage.

- Why?
- Her phone is turned off.

Even the security guard said
she didn't look sane.

What if she has dementia?

She hurt her head.
It's just temporary.

Are you sure
she has no family or relatives?

I hope you don't mind me asking.
But you're not married, right?

I was married once.

Mr. Hyeon Ju Nam,

how come you...

I'm sorry. But the balance
must have reached the card limit.

The transaction was declined.

Gosh, really?

(Baek Do Yi, born in 1954)

Is this true?

It's not, right?

Should I text him that
something urgent came up?

Whatever.

I want to meet him at least
one more time and talk.

At least once.

- No one is here?
- No.

They all left early
in the morning to exercise.

I heard Director Dan was
an excellent tennis player.

Should we go to the tennis court
before we go to the wedding?

To see how good he is?

Do you not want to?

Well,

today...

Mother.

Yes.

I do not think I can do it.

But your director complimented
your acting skill.

I do not think I can watch over Eon.

It is not as easy
as I wanted it to be.

I am over the moon
when he takes care of me...

like a big brother.

I could not be happier.

But when I see him
with his betrothed, Ayla,

my heart experiences
indescribable pain.

There is even a saying.

"A mistress makes
even a generous wife turn away."

It is only natural
you cannot take it.

Then...

try to put up with it
until "Master Jung" is over.

If you earn some money
from the drama,

we can move out.

Then we will not have to see
or be involved with him.

I am thinking of going back...

if there is a way.

To where we came from?

Yes.

Do you mean that?

I hate and resent him,

and I blame my husband for dying.

I know it is wrong to feel so,

but the fire of jealousy
takes over me,

and it burns...

my heart and my soul.

What on earth happened?

They were nice to me.

His fiancée said
we should be foster sisters.

She even gave me jewelry.

The problem is how I feel.

I thought...

I could get my husband into trouble.

Nothing is more cunning
than our emotions,

and greed is endless.

That is not always the case.

Sometimes,
people are likened to beasts,

but they also praise human virtue.

I lack in so many ways, Mother.

If there is the sun,
there is the moon.

If there is the moon,
there is the sun.

If there is happiness,
there is misfortune.

If you overcome the misfortune,
there is happiness.

What is happiness...

and what is misfortune, Mother?

Let us go on living.

Let us bear with life...

since we are in the future.

I think it is right
that I get out of their way.

Eon seemed to have come to like you.

Though I am not sure.

He will soon forget about me.

We loved each other so much
when we were married,

but his soul has no trace of me.

The same goes for me,
his own mother.

That is the rule of the soul...

and necessary forgetfulness.

I got to see him...

healthy, well, and happy.

When I return,

I can get on with life
without shedding tears.

But I do not dare ask you...

to return with me.

What would I do here without you?

That is pointless.

You can make kimchi and cook.

- You can watch over Eon...
- No.

You are everything to me now.

Mother...

Can we go back?

First,

I would like to go to the cottage.

Why? What did she say?

She said
she just wanted to visit it.

I was planning to take them
around Seoul,

the Jamsil observation deck,
a wedding hall, and a theme park.

The cottage?

Did they regain
some of their memories?

What happened to So Jeo yesterday?

She sobbed all the way home.

I almost asked if she got scolded.

Will you look around?

My aunt lives nearby
and would like to...

- Okay.
- Call the driver 30 minutes...

before you want to leave.

Mother.

Right? The rock outside
our village watermill.

Yes.

Then is this...

where the watermill used to be?

The watermill must have changed
to become this.

Then it is the same spot.

Yes.

If we were to walk in there now...

Nothing much will happen.

So many workers
will have gone in there...

to dig the pond
and manage the plants.

If they had all disappeared,
would they have kept the pond?

Is it impossible...

to go back, then?

It could be possible at night,
like when we came here.

There was no moon that night.

Right.

It was pitch black,
like a lunar eclipse.

Then during a lunar eclipse...

Perhaps during
a lunar or solar eclipse...

I cannot figure it out.

It happened to us,
but even we cannot believe it.

I am glad we did not try to
explain this to anyone.

Should I dip my foot in the water?

What for?

It could be something
that happens to just you and me.

Thanks to Buddha's grace.

What if...

you put your foot in and...

We should at least say goodbye.

That is only right.

I would like to make my husband
some sujebi first.

Yesterday at a tavern,

he ate thick chunks of sujebi,

but he said it was good.

We have not yet been able to
serve him a hot meal.

Why is he so busy?

Mother, you and I both
have so much to do and learn.

I cannot say everything
about this world is good.

A date with a guy at this age.

With a guy 30 years my junior,
a baby.

How jealous would my friends be
if they were to hear about this?

It pays to look younger.

Plastic surgery is a good thing.

- My toothpaste.
- What?

This isn't it.

Don't you know
I'm picky about toothpaste?

Why are you
so distracted these days?

I apologize.

I told you to stock up.

- There should be another one.
- What if there isn't?

You don't care
as much about me anymore.

These days, they deliver things
at rocket speed if you order.

This is how it should be.

Do I smell old?

Spray some deodorizer on my outfit.

I did.

Why did you spray deodorizer?

Do my clothes smell?

No.

Tell me honestly.

Just because.

Do I smell every now and then?

Yes.

It's a good smell.

Does my makeup smell too strong?

No. You keep yourself
and your surroundings so clean.

Sometimes it smells like perfume.

I'll have a bottle put in your car.

Mr. Lee will be busy.

If there's a spare bottle...

My dear Emma.
Today, you have to take a lady.

Will you stay the night?

No.

The day we came here,
did you notice anything unusual?

There were a large number of guests.

What about thunder or lightning?

It didn't rain that night.

Sometimes, even without rain...

There was a total lunar eclipse.

I almost lost my job
because of you two.

How did you get in?

It's either this or that.

Is my makeup too heavy?

My face looked painted on
at the club.

This will smell old.

What if he doesn't recognize me
because I look so ordinary?

Should I wear the wig?

Mother, your butler is here.

She went out.

Is she exercising again?

No, she seemed to have
an appointment.

Where did she go...

without reporting to her butler?

Will you leave soon?

I'll stay until she comes home.

Are there any snacks? Nothing sweet.

They didn't go inside.

They're staying by the pond.

- Doing what?
- Talking.

Should I invite
Chi Jung and Woo Mi to dinner?

Chi Jung.

Did you read
"The Mother-in-law's Officiant Speech?"

- The article?
- Yes.

What mother-in-law is an officiant?

"Hello, I'm the groom's mother."

Are you expecting another person?

- Yes.
- Should I take your jacket?

Sure.

Later.

Can I see the menu?

"Dear daughter-in-law."

"As of today,
my son is officially yours."

"You've known him
since middle school,"

"so you would've quality checked him
inside and out."

"You are a year older than him,"

"so even if he is lacking,"

"wipe and tighten
whatever is loose."

"Fix him as you go on."

"You're a younger generation
that wants..."

"nothing to do with the in-laws,"

"but I won't worry."

Hyeon Ju Nam.

"Visit your parents more often,"

"and don't visit us
unless you must."

- I'm not late, am I?
- You're right on time.

Mineral or sparkling water?

Mineral water.

Sure.

Should I order for us?

Go ahead.

Course A will be too heavy.

Let's eat a lot.

Okay, then. Course A for two.

I was kidding. Course C, please.

- Course C for two.
- Do you eat a lot?

I'm cutting down on what I eat.

Is that sparkling water?

Yes.

Do you not like it?

It makes me gassy and full.

You were beautiful last time,

but you look different today.

You too.

Do I look okay?
I dressed up as best I could.

You look nice.

Do you not usually wear suits?

No. I'm a freelancer.

I won't ask what you do.

Does that mean
you're not interested?

No, I'm trying to be polite.

Thank you.

Things like that aren't important.

Right. I agree.

What did you do yesterday?

I left clothes
at the dry cleaner's...

and did some cleaning.

I live in a 76m² studio apartment.

I didn't ask for the size.

Do people say you're witty?

Well, not really.

- I like that.
- What do you mean?

Maybe you're witty just for me.

What's this? He likes that?

She's witty too.
Out of the ordinary.

I saw a movie.

What did you see?
Do you go to the theater often?

No, I watched it at home
through cable.

The movie came out
some months ago. "Tar."

It's a masterpiece.

The lead was so good.

I was in awe the whole time.

The lecture was
a ten-minute one-take shot.

Yes.

The dialogue
was technical and intellectual.

I knew that actress was great,

but I really felt it this time
that not anyone can act.

If we had no TV dramas or movies...

Life would be so dull.

How would we release our stress?

Right.

You can briefly forget...

your rough life.

And a lot of works
relay positive messages.

What I do
briefly releases people from...

their rough lives and reality.

I can't tell her yet.

Did you ever struggle?

Of course, a lot.

Struggling is different
from having a hard time.

Even if things are hard,

it doesn't always
feel like a struggle.

In my case, when I studied in the US,
it was both.

Gosh. He studied abroad.

Where in the US?

New York.

I see.

That's why
he's a modern intellectual.

Back then,

the only legal part-time job
foreign students could do...

was the student cafeteria.

- For how much?
- Two dollars per hour.

I liked that I could read a lot.

What about food?

My family wasn't well-off,

and my dad was easily swayed.

He stood in for a bad debt.

- Is it because I said, "Dad?"
- You're not wrong...

if that's what
you're used to calling him.

Don't most men say "Father"
when they grow up?

Never mind.

They sent me money every semester,

- and I worked to cover expenses.
- You must've missed Korean food.

So much.

That's why I went to a church
all the way in New Jersey...

to eat bulgogi.

As I prayed,

I could smell the bulgogi
cooking in the basement.

The sermon was long,
and I couldn't wait to eat.

I stacked this much bulgogi
and kimchi on a paper plate.

It wasn't Korean beef.

Still.

If I exaggerate a bit,
it was insanely good back then.

"Back then?"

It was a rough time,
but it was very special too.

Not everyone experiences that.

Right. I'm grateful to my parents.

- Are they still...
- Yes. They're both well.

I can't ask his parents' ages.

They might be younger than me.

So, do you drink wine?

- Shall we?
- Sure.

Didn't you drive here?

I can always call for a driver.

No, then.
I'd like to savor the food.

He's 40, he studied abroad,

and he's unwed.
Maybe he's not unwed.

No.

He looks unwed.

What should I say if he asks?

That I'm divorced?

Tell the truth that I'm widowed?

We won't date anyway.

I don't want to see
his disappointed face.

Let's end it on a high.

Don't you like
something stronger than wine?

Some days I want hard liquor.
Some days I want a boilermaker.

I have a glass of wine
when I watch TV at home.

Just one glass?

No.

You make the conversation fun.

That's all you.

If we go back to movies,

what genre do you usually watch?

I'm not picky.

Am I the only one who finds
the bread delicious?

It is nice.

It's good.

Do you think you've already reached
the peak of your life?

Or do you think
you haven't peaked yet?

What a profound question.

I'll think about it.

I've peaked several times.

I peaked when I had my three sons.

I peaked when I celebrated
my 20th wedding anniversary...

by watching the aurora in Iceland.

I felt truly happy then.

I didn't live a lazy life.

I'm less curious about
how your life was...

and more so about
what you consider your peak.

You know,
people in Hollywood movies...

are quite shallow.

When they meet someone,

they try to figure out
what that person does.

I felt that too.

Doesn't it feel
like we're on the same wavelength?

Oh, my goodness.

Am I the only one feeling that way?

It's just a feeling.

That's important.
Don't underestimate feelings.

I was just joking.

People are
asking about superficial things...

when they meet another person.

They say
people are lords of all creation.

Lords of all creation
shouldn't care about such things.

Deciding whether or not
to continue a relationship...

based on superficial things.

That's a good...

and cool way to think.

Do you disagree with me?

No. You're right.

Superficial things
are all made by humans.

Being swayed by things
that people have made...

means you lack wisdom.

Even when dogs meet on the street,
they disregard superficial things.

They shake their tails
if they like each other...

or growl if they don't.

In that way, I guess humans
are not as good as animals.

Do you own a dog or any other pets?

No.

- Do you?
- I would like to.

But I'm worried they'd be lonely.

I couldn't leave them
in an empty house all day.

I like dogs more than cats.

Big dogs or small dogs?

If my house had a big yard,
I'd like to raise a retriever.

My garden is large.

I like retrievers too.

I could raise
five or ten retrievers.

What am I imagining right now?

I became a bit slimmer, right?

Did you work hard to lose weight?

Why do I keep speaking so politely?

He's 30 years younger than me.

Honestly, I can't be like Se Mi.

It's impossible.

I want to live a few days
more than you.

I don't want to follow Mother.

They are both no joke.

My future sisters-in-law.

You are right.

I will always just say,
"I am not sure,"

or "Please look at me kindly."

You are wise.

It is Director Dan's ride thing.

We are here.

With Deung Myung?

- No.
- We were about to leave.

- Why...
- He asked to come.

I'm going to stay here from now on.

Does Ms. Jang know?

There is no need to tell her.

She doesn't even care...

whether I come or go.

The house is cold with no heat.

You will get sick.

You are about halfway there, right?

Yes.

The peaches from my house
are quite ripe and sweet now.

I brought some for you,

so have some when you feel hungry.

How is the baby?

I can feel the baby moving.

Take it and eat it in the annex.

Do you not want to eat?

Seat him in the car.
He should not be alone.

Director Dan.

What's the point?

Everyone just ignores me.

It's an appetizer with caviar
and mango on top of a poached egg.

Enjoy.

Is it Beluga caviar?

No. It's Ossetra caviar.

You should serve Beluga caviar.
This meal is quite expensive.

I'll tell the chef.

Men don't really like caviar, right?

To be honest,
I don't really understand the taste.

They say it's one
of the three great delicacies.

Do you know men well?

Do you know women well?

I asked you first.

I have three sons.

When I see male employees,

they prefer meals
that are served all at once...

over course meals.

I like everything.

I enjoy a full table.

With course meals like this,
I get curious about the next dish...

and how they will use
what ingredient next.

At some restaurants,

I feel like the chef is a genius.

You need to be very smart
to cook well.

Yes.

Why do we think so much alike?

It's because I'm young.

Both my body and my mind.

I worked with secretaries
and young employees all my life.

I can pay for today's meal, right?

Why?

It's just close to my house.

I asked you out.

Does the person who asked
always need to pay?

Yes.

You bought me ice cream that day.

It was nice because it was hot.

If so, you should buy me ice cream.

Why does he only do sweet things?

Most people would pretend
to unwillingly give in.

You're comfortable with me, right?

"You should buy me ice cream."

Oh, I'm sorry.
You should buy me ice cream, ma'am.

You're right.

I do feel comfortable with you.

What? He shouldn't say that.

I keep getting feelings.

Am I the only one
who feels comfortable?

I must be comfortable too.

I'm joking
and critiquing your jokes.

Do you have other plans?

You don't, right?

- I don't.
- I suddenly...

have a small wish.

But you might misunderstand.

I won't.

Did you bring your car?

I walked here for exercise
since it was close.

Do you like going on drives?

It's been a while.

Would you like to go on a drive
with me today?

We can bring a bag of snacks.

He's innocent, cute,

and even romantic?

Do you not feel up to it?

Our meal will take a while.

You have to play a bit hard to get.

Since we're not drinking wine,
we'll be done before nine.

It'll be the first time in a while.

She's funny,
has the right level of kindness,

and knows
how to go along with things.

What do you think about addiction?

What kind of addiction?

There are good addictions
and bad addictions.

What is a good addiction?

A work addiction?

Being addicted to work
isn't a good thing.

If you're not careful,
you can ruin your body.

I haven't ruined it yet.

I guess you maintain it well.

Not particularly.
I ride bikes when I have time.

Do you have an exercise
you can recommend?

Golf, of course.

Other than golf.

Golf takes up too much time.

When will you stop
living such a busy lifestyle?

When the world no longer needs
my abilities.

I hope it needs me for a long time.

You must think
work is the only important thing.

I need to be successful.

Why?

You must've given up a lot...

for success.

Marriage?

You can't have everything
you want in life.

Wealth, honor, a lovable wife,

children that don't cause trouble,

and health.

Actually, having just one or two
of those things is hard.

I have quite a few of those things.

I'm just missing a good husband.

Although I receive...

some assistance from doctors
with my youth.

I...

just have my health...

for now.

Excuse me for a minute.
I have to take this call.

Sure.

Hello?

Will the next dish be fish?

Could you bring it out a bit later?

Yes, ma'am.

What a nice world.

I would like the universe...

to let me live until I'm 100
just so I can use makeup.

Yes. It seemed nice.

Okay. Let's go with that place.

Okay.

Eon is mature,

like a good boy.

We will have to see when he is older,
but he is gentle.

I told Il Soo...

to be more generous and kind.

If he stays strong and patient...

We need to be patient in life.

I have kept it aside...

for my granddaughter-in-law.

They are norigae and rings...

that Il Soo's grandmother...

loved and prized when she was alive.

How could I...

Keep them with you
and look at them once in a while.

I know things like this
can make women feel happy.

Your grandmother-in-law...

was warm and good-natured.

If she had lived a full life,

Il Soo's mother
would have been a bit more free.

Please understand.

Is Deung Myung still...

Yes, sir.

It's hard to even see his face.

Head on upstairs.
Don't worry about me.

Have you eaten dinner, sir?

Have you not eaten yet?

I drink on an empty stomach.

What was Mother wearing
when she went out?

- Something pretty.
- Pretty in what way?

She looked much younger than usual.

It looks the same
as what I see on TV.

Pick something.

What is this feeling?

It feels like I'm in my 20s again.

Do you not like snacks?

How could anyone not like snacks?

Elderly people.

Technically, I am elderly too.

This one is good too.

Do you like chocolate?

I do, but I resist.

Give in just for today.

Let me digest our meal a bit first.

May I decide where to go?

Let's get out of this area.

Somewhere far.

Should we go to Yeosu?

I heard it was very nice
this time of year.

Yeosu in Jeolla Province?

It's too far.

It won't go all night, right?

Your mom isn't here.

She must be at Grandma's.

I am making nurungji as well.

This reminds me of my grandmother.

My grandmother was good at cooking.

It was never too salty or too bland.

She made tofu and salted fish soup
just right.

I did not know
how salty you liked your food.

It's refreshing and subtly seasoned.

Could I tell you a bit
about my grandmother?

I want to talk about my grandmother
for the first time in a while.

Because my parents were always busy,

I went to my grandmother's house
in Gahoe-dong...

more than my own house after school.

Chi Gam and Chi Jung did too.

You should eat.

- Are you going upstairs?
- No, sir.

I will stay here.

On days that I drank,

she always greeted me with love,

no matter how late I was.

She made fried eggs like this too.

She called it "fried"
instead of "sunny side up."

Thanks to her,

I physically learned that fried eggs
were good for sobering up.

I learned in medical school
that protein protects your liver.

My stomach already feels better.

Can you stay a bit longer?

The nurungji might boil over.

Will Ju Nam get married?

What if that innocent boy...

met some cunning fox?

I went up the Empire State Building
over 100 times.

I could barely go to Korea because
I couldn't afford plane tickets,

but my friends took turns
coming over during vacation.

There is a set course.

The Twin Towers,
the Empire State Building...

You're right.

One time, we were going up
the Statue of Liberty.

It's a spiral staircase, right?

I walked up, looking at the big hips
of an American woman.

The phone is turned off.

Please leave a message
after the tone.

That's so funny.

Can you give me some?

Sorry.

I haven't eaten any in a while,
but you seem to be enjoying it.

What if someone we know sees us?

He's so easygoing.
I like his personality.

She listens well
and enjoys my stories.

The phone is turned off.

Please leave a message
after the tone.

I guess the mother and son
are on a date today.

Where's Mother?

Did she go out?

Yes. She went out
and hasn't come back yet.

It's off.

I thought you were out with her.

Have you tried Mr. Lee?

Mr. Lee doesn't even know
that she went out.

My mom rarely drives.

Her car is still here.

I guess someone came to pick her up.

She usually comes home late
when she gets invited to a friend's place.

It's strange.

What is?

I'm not full at all.

Same.

I know why.

Do you?

Is it because we didn't have wine?

It's because we talked a lot.

We talked while we ate.

We burn a lot of calories
when we talk.

I see.

It's my first time here.

This is my bike route.

This is good.

Happiness isn't that grandiose.
Don't you agree?

I do.

What are you thinking about?

Absolutely nothing.

I don't want to think.

- Why?
- Indifference.

There aren't many moments...

where nothing comes to mind.

You're right.

I feel like I read somewhere
that the night air was sweet.

Good job.

Have you thought
about how you want to age?

Have you?

I've already aged plenty.

Just speak comfortably.

My heart is beating out of control.

How would it feel to get married
to someone...

you know nothing about?

How long has it been
since someone babied me?

A lot of people get divorced...

even if they know each other well.

That's true.

I thought he was going to kiss me.

How will it feel?

I don't remember.

I must be crazy. Baek Do Yi.

As my secretaries say,
"Get a hold of yourself."

"Pull yourself together
before you make a fool of yourself."

It's okay to think about it.

There's nothing wrong
with imagining it.

While you were dating
your first love,

did you ever feel
an age difference emotionally?

Age is just a number. Really.

Whether she's 4 years older
or 40 years older.

Forty years?

Really?

When you're young,

you could feel like that.

Do you care about men's looks?

Do you have to think about that too?

Yes.

Men care about looks too.

Just like
how all women are different,

men are different too.

So instead of looks,
you care about their heart?

Or their body?

Do you want me to be honest?

Honesty is always the best policy.

Yet you always seem
to be keeping secrets.

I never said anything I didn't mean.

We don't know anything
about where the other lives...

or what the other does.

But what do you think
about getting married?

You and me.

In movies and dramas,

they say they've never felt
like this before.

I thought it was just
a line in a drama.

But it's true.

I'm being serious.

It's like a comfortable outfit.

I'm happy just eating chips
with you.

It's true.

We could have a wedding...

No, I don't need a wedding.

Let's register our marriage first
and then tell each other.

Our jobs, our ages...
Those kinds of things.

Isn't it dramatic?

Marriage...

is life and reality.

Dramatic things should remain
in the dramas.

You know reality can be more trashy.

That doesn't mean
my offer is trashy.

I'm just suggesting
we go with our hearts.

Do you not like me at all?

Am I not your style?

If you hadn't perceived me like that
and weren't interested,

I doubt you would've come out today.

I...

am older.

Your age?

How old are you that you're so sure?

Regardless of how old you are,
whether it's 30 or 40 years older,

it's just convention, not vital.
That's what I've realized.

Then what's important?

Have you ever seen
a 70-year-old grandpa...

struggle to communicate
with his 5-year-old grandchild?

If you keep looking,
there's no right answer.

How you feel is what's important.

It's about how much you care
and cherish the other.

Most people tend to neglect that...

and only care about conditions...

Even when you get married
out of love,

the passion goes away,
and only hate remains.

That's my point.

Even if you
start knowing everything,

you can end up disappointed.

I'm perfectly satisfied...

with the person in front of me.

I'm just drawn to you.

I really do see you as a woman,

and yet,
I feel comfortable with you.

It's not just curiosity.

I can't put it into words.

Are you sure you're not
just an impulsive person?

I sometimes eat food impulsively.

Do you think love is something
you can explain...

with evidence and logic?

It's not.

Then what's love?

I believe love is the result,
not the process.

How about we register our marriage
tomorrow, become a couple,

and end things with love
in a few decades?

I think I can do it.

I've never thought this before,

but I think it's possible.

Why should we be afraid in advance?

You can't do anything...

if you continue
to compare this and that.

If I live each day to the fullest,

then I'll want to do my best...

and focus on you.

What should I do?

I was going to get you
an audio system or a 100-inch TV...

that you'd like,

but forget it, you punk.

I'll just put about 500
or 1,000 dollars in an envelope...

and give you that instead.

They say,
"You should never take in a stranger."

I didn't really take you in,
but regardless.

I guess he's seeing an actress.

He has such high standards.

If So Jeo gets a cellphone,

you're going to send her the photos.

- Yes.
- I'll send it to her,

so send it to me.

(Four Attachments)

Erase it.

Let's talk.

After I get dressed.

It's not like you're naked.

I already saw you in a bathing suit.

Are you leaving early tomorrow?

We're back to square one.

You said you'd speak
comfortably to me.

I'm going out early.

It's hard to come by,
so I barely managed to get it.

Don't you want to open it?

It's a flower that never wilts.

It's how I feel.

My feelings won't change.

Our relationship...

isn't simply one
between a man and a woman.

That's how I feel.

Am I the only one
who feels that way?

After "Master Jung" ends,
I'm marrying Ayla.

But nothing will change between us.

We might not be blood-related,

but I'll always be
your older brother.

I'm the first person to give you
a flower that never wilts,

and I'm also the first person
you probably swam with.

That's how we'll be forever.

They say, "A married couple becomes
strangers if they turn their backs,"

but we're not married.

We were married.

We never once turned our backs
on one another.

We'll never hold grudges...

or turn our backs on each other.

When your ID comes out,
I'll buy you a cellphone.

I'll be the first to take you
to the amusement park,

and I'll also be the first person
you ride a plane with.

This is a token of that promise.

I'll be on the first page
of everything you do from now on.

Even on the last page,

I'll be the one who's by your side.

Does it seem like a lie?

I know you are not one to tell lies.

Thank you for knowing that.

When you're sad or struggling,

come to me first.

Promise me that.

I'm the person
you'll share your happiness with.

And while there's no order
when it comes to death,

I'll still live longer
than Du Ri An.

Eon.

I cannot live if I lose you like this.

Please open your eyes.

I feel like I'm going to cry.

Things could end with Ayla.

If our feelings
for each other end...

and don't feel the need
to be together anymore,

she could leave me,

or I could leave her.

But...

don't forget you and I
will be together forever.

Just cry for today.

I'll always be by your side,

so you never cry again...

as your one and only brother.

You'll come to realize
what I'm saying...

will never change.

I have already realized it.

You have not changed.

It seems your soul already knows.

Should I bring her into our home?

Who knows
if they're making time to meet up?

Mr. Han will listen to the person
who pays his salary.

"Birds of a feather flock together,
and there's honor amongst thieves."

Our housekeeper has lost it,

and it's hard to find
people who are good at their job.

My goodness. Ohyiji.

I'm sorry. Mommy's...

(Durian's Affair)

You kicked her out like that.
If it were you...

I kicked her out?

Did they leave on their own accord?
You told them to go.

They're not emotionless idiots.

I'll talk to them.

I'm going to live with them.

I can stay here all day
and not notice the passage of time.

This place is a paradise for kids.

The phone is turned off.

Are you sure it is not too late?

Who is this? Du Ri An?

A lot of people have weddings
without officiants.

It doesn't make sense, but it does.

Why am I being persuaded?

But he likes me like this.

Are you uncomfortable?

Then I would have allowed you
to stay at the cottage.

Did you feel how coldly
she treats me?

Would Se Mi become a dog
that chased after me?

If possible, don't look for me...

- until tomorrow.
- Where are you going?

I'm leaving on Friday night
and coming back on Sunday.

I should get my makeup done.
Bridal makeup.

What is this haziness
that flashes across her eyes?

What kind of story is she hiding?

I would like another drink too.

I'm ready to listen...

to whatever story you wish to tell.

- Hello?
- I'm sorry.

I was born in 1954.

I said I was born in 1954.

A noble family paid
a hard-working young man...

to come work for their family.

- A servant?
- But...

he fell in love with the daughter
of that noble family...

And?

Is it okay for an old lady
to play with someone like this?

Is it okay
because you got plastic surgery?
