THE PRACTICAL GUIDE TO LOVE

Are you here for a blind date?

No, I'm not.

Sorry.

Ui-yeong!

- Hey! - Over here!

It's been a minute.

- Seriously! - You look stunning.

- Me? - Yeah.

- Beautiful. - You're glowing!

Thanks.

- How's everyone doing? - Well.

- It's been so long. - Yeah.

- Everyone's busy. - We only meet

- when someone's getting married. - I know.

- Seriously. - Life gets busy.

How have you been?

- Thank you. - My, my.

- Please come. - Will do!

- My gosh. - Is it okay?

- Yeah. - Of course!

It's so pretty and neat.

- Beautiful. - It was a lot of work.

I can't believe you're getting married.

It feels like just yesterday when you booked the venue. Time flies.

- I know. - Congrats.

You must be so busy.

Yeah, it's crazy.

I have to invite people

plan the wedding, and move.

I'm even getting a wedding check-up next week.

A wedding check-up?

It's just what they call it.

They visit a gynecologist and a urologist

to make sure they're fertile.

Is that common these days?

Yeah.

But there are some fun things to do along the way.

Like what?

Ta-da!

- No way! - That's beautiful!

It's so pretty and sparkly!

That's crazy, isn't it?

Look at Ui-yeong getting excited after seeing that.

I know!

That's a big rock. I've never seen one that big.

Isn't it heavy to wear?

- It's too heavy. - Right?

- Put it down. - My gosh.

You're so funny.

When are you getting married?

- Me? - Yeah.

You're the only single one left once I get married.

Oh, you're right.

Is your current boyfriend not really husband material?

No, he's great.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

I just don't want to get married yet.

By the way

was there a moment when you realized you knew he was the one?

Yeah, I was just eating with him one day

and realized we'd probably eat together for the rest of our lives.

What about you?

When I got pregnant.

Seeing him step up and tell our parents about our pregnancy

I knew I could trust him.

Is it really necessary to be so dramatic?

Aren't you bound to marry whomever you're dating around this age?

Bring your boyfriend to the wedding. We'll see what he's like.

Yeah, we're curious.

Okay, I'll ask him if he's free.

Oh, right!

- Ui-yeong! - Yeah?

Could you give the wedding toast?

- Me? No way. - Yeah.

Why not? You were always good at public speaking.

- Yeah. - Come on.

I did that for good grades.

I'm not even married. What do I even say?

I'd hate to get nervous and even tear up

before the person even begins their speech.

I can't stand that.

Come on, I can't do it.

Just take it easy and keep it simple.

- Yeah. - Just say nice things.

- Help her. - Yeah, help her out.

- Yeah. - She's begging you.

Fine.

- Really? - Yeah.

Yes! I got my wedding toast!

Keep it simple, okay?

Simple. Not too emotional.

Don't cry, okay?

- You too! - Yeah, you!

How would you like to renovate your workshop?

A lot of customers want to visit to buy my products

so I'd like to have a showroom with it, even if it's small.

But the space is already tiny.

Could I take some photos?

Of course.

We'll have space to work with once we add cabinets

- along the ceiling. - I see.

Is there a specific design you want?

Well, actually...

I chose you as my designer after seeing your work at the exhibition.

- I see. - I want a design

that's timelessly beautiful instead of just trendy.

Okay, then.

Thank you.

Did you make this yourself, too?

Yeah.

Wow, that's stunning.

I bet couples who wear these rings will never run out of love.

You think so? Maybe that's why.

Every couple with those rings got married.

- Really? - Yeah.

But I'm not going to make more of them because I don't want to break the record.

I'm only going to make custom rings from now on.

I see.

Would you like to see the inside?

Sure.

YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO HO-JIN AND EUN-MI'S WEDDING

Hey, Ui-yeong.

Hey.

Aren't you hungry?

I wanted to eat with you, so I barely ate.

I barely had any!

Good job.

- Let's go. - I'm so hungry.

It's going to be so good!

It looks amazing.

- Here. Have this. - Thanks.

This looks amazing.

Try it.

The sauce is so good.

- Right? - Yeah.

Your restaurant recommendations never disappoint.

I knew you'd love it.

This simple flavor could make anyone's day.

Oh, did you have fun with your friends?

Yeah, we talked so much.

Oh, and they're dying to meet you.

They want you at the wedding.

I can go. I'll make time.

- Really? - Yeah.

I get invited to a wedding or have a wedding to attend every week.

There's no time to go on dates

because I'm too busy celebrating other people's love.

Your friends

also always talk about getting married, right?

Yeah, I guess so.

Before that, it was about our careers

and how much we were making.

That was what everyone cared about

but now, it's about getting married and buying a new house.

I guess it's natural for everyone to become that way.

It can be natural for some, but unnatural for others.

Everyone has a different pace in life.

That's true.

Oh, are you free tomorrow?

I want to bring you the chair.

Oh, really? It's finally coming!

I'm so excited. I can't wait to sit in it.

- I'll bring it tomorrow. - Perfect.

- No, wait! - What?

Not this one.

This is my trophy.

Trophy, my ass. It's whiskey.

No!

It's from my supervisor after I exceeded

the sales goal by 100%.

No!

Come on.

Let's just leave it as a token of my past glory.

Didn't you hear the doctor?

It's on you for leaving it unopened all this time.

Why don't we start drinking tea instead of alcohol now?

The world of tea seems just as serious

from what I saw during my tea field visit.

Drink white tea instead of white wine

and black tea instead of red, okay?

What are you talking about?

Great, right?

Even today?

Of course! You're ridiculous.

It's so comfortable!

- Is it? - Yeah, even the back!

How did you build this? I love it.

I'm glad.

And doesn't it fit right in at my house?

- Yeah, it does. - Thank you!

Have some tea if you're done.

- Okay. - Yes, ma'am.

Come.

It smells so nice.

Is it okay?

I love it.

So, you build and sell furniture like the chair?

Yeah, I build furniture

and also get clients from architectural firms and brands

to design spaces.

You're definitely not car poor, then.

- Mom! - Hmm?

Hmm? Oh, it's nothing.

Do you have any goals?

Why are you asking him that?

Do you have any goals?

Not anymore

but I did when I was your age.

Supporting you until you enter college.

In my twenties, I was more focused on proving myself professionally

but work isn't my focus anymore.

Now, spending time with Ui-yeong, my family, and colleagues is the best.

I feel alive.

Being together with my loved ones for a long time is

my new goal, I guess.

I see.

So, you know what's important.

My last and biggest question is...

Mom! Cut it out.

What do you love so much about Ui-yeong?

Yeah, I'm kind of curious, too.

At first, I was drawn to her beauty.

You hear that?

I love how we just understand each other, too.

And now that I know her better

I also love her honesty and unpredictable personality.

I found all those things attractive.

I'm calm and logical

but when I'm with Ui-yeong

I become more emotional and motivated to take initiatives.

I'm thinking maybe that's what love is...

Sorry.

You taught me love right there.

Are you getting shy after that perfect answer?

You're as red as an apple.

It's hot!

- I need to use the bathroom. - That way.

My gosh.

- Isn't he cute? - Love?

I'm definitely loved.

That's very cute.

- Jealous? - Yeah.

I'll turn the light on.

Let's see.

First

bell peppers.

Sweet potatoes.

Three tomatoes.

Three big sweet potatoes.

And three potatoes!

Wait, Jun!

I don't need all this.

You can take more.

You're much bigger than me.

But we split the bill equally.

No.

I just don't think I can finish them before they go bad.

It's better for you to enjoy it all

instead of having some go bad.

And I already got my money's worth by splitting the bill.

This is better than splitting everything evenly.

How are you so kind, too?

Okay, then.

Since you like this

you can take three!

How do you already know what I love so well?

LANDLORD

What's wrong?

- Excuse me for a sec. - Okay.

Hello, sir. I'm Seung-jun.

Sorry?

MONTHLY EXPENSES

How can they raise the rent again?

It's not like I can stop using the AC and the heater.

Should I sell a machine?

You'll end up with an empty gym

if you sell one every time this happens.

Let me see.

FIXED EXPENSES

Was I too ambitious for opening a gym on the first floor with a good view?

I should've started in a semi-basement.

You're already doing everything you can.

Why don't you move the gym?

All the money I spent on renovations would go to waste.

And there's no guarantee that my customers will move with me.

You could save on one more thing.

Huh?

- And that's enough? - Yeah.

This unit.

Move out of this unit and move in with me.

- Huh? - Jun.

Will you be my house husband?

You're not asleep yet?

- Oh, yeah... - What's that?

Don't tell me you're working.

The doctor said you shouldn't work too hard.

That's not it.

- Can we talk for a sec? - Oh, sure.

CONFIRMATION OF APPLICATION FOR AN UNCONTESTED DIVORCE

One of my clients once said

experiencing falling ill

isn't entirely a bad thing.

I didn't understand her then

but I get it now.

I now understand

what to keep and get rid of in my life.

So

if you're okay, I want to go forward with this.

Mom

it's your life.

You need to go for it if that's what you want.

I don't want to hold you back, ever.

I want to support you in everything.

Like you did today

I want you

to keep prioritizing yourself over anything and anyone.

I'll feel really happy, then.

Seriously

when did my little girl grow up?

You raised me.

My gosh.

- Okay, let's do this. - Yeah.

CONFIRMATION OF APPLICATION FOR AN UNCONTESTED DIVORCE

PARK JEONG-IM

STUDIO HOME

Check this out, Sae-byeok.

He's a close friend of mine.

He's handsome.

He's also a great guy.

What do you think?

You want me to set you up?

- What? - There he goes again!

Are you okay?

- That was loud. Are you hurt? - What's going on?

I'm fine, babe. Don't be...

What's going on?

This is huge.

My gosh.

I thought we were a family, but we have lovebirds now.

I know. How dare they?

You said you didn't date coworkers, Sae-byeok.

Yeah, and I meant it back then.

That was just months ago.

It's still 2026, you know?

It's all because of you, Mr. Song.

- What? - Hmm? What did I do?

It's all thanks to you.

You kept leaving us by ourselves to go on dates with your girlfriend.

I have plans. You two can go.

Good work.

- You too. - Thank you.

So...

you want to grab dinner?

Okay.

- It's hot. Be careful. - Okay.

What are you doing?

This is Ui-yeong's tip.

This way, you can eat quickly without burning yourself.

Gosh, you little piggy.

She's so cute.

- Like this? - Yeah.

I got this.

It doesn't move when you even it out.

See? It's stable.

He's so cool.

We won't let our relationship affect our work.

- Okay. - You think you can do that?

You two look great together.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

We don't have to worry about being caught anymore.

We'll do all the tough things together and work hard.

Okay.

- Should we get matching rings? - Should we?

Matching rings? You're getting rings already?

If we want, why not?

But it's too soon. You just started dating.

Kids these days move fast.

Wow, am I working or watching a dating show?

Poor Choi Bo-yoon, she's so bitter and lonely.

You're not the one to talk, okay?

You're just as single as I am.

Hey, I...

You know what? You know nothing.

I have my Sua, at least.

Hello, my baby!

- Dad. - Yeah?

We're having an early dismissal because of a blackout.

Should I pick you up, then?

No, come after work.

I'm hanging out with Min-gyu.

Min-gyu? Who's that?

My boyfriend. Did I not tell you?

Your boyfriend?

I told her to ask me for permission, whether it's a guy friend or a boyfriend!

Why is she already dating someone? She's in kindergarten!

Tae-seop's left me, and now, Jin-su.

Sua!

Oh, you must be Min-gyu.

Hello.

Good to know my Sua has good taste.

Are you two alone?

Mom!

Alright!

- Mom. - Yeah?

Sua's dad gave me soap bubbles.

Really? Did you thank him?

Go and thank him.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- Go and play with Sua. - He was raised by good parents.

Thank you.

It's nothing.

It's my first time hearing about Min-gyu.

That's because we only recently moved here

after my divorce from his dad.

I see.

Well, my wife's passed away.

I see.

I was worried about Min-gyu settling in because he's so shy

but I'm so glad he got so close to Sua so quickly.

Sua gets along with everyone.

Let's be friends, too.

Sure.

Looks like they'll be here for a while.

Do you want to have dinner nearby?

I'm sure you don't want to cook at home.

Oh, yeah, that's true, but...

What about kalguksu?

Do you like it?

Yeah.

I think I'll like it.

- Hello. - Hey.

Is something going on upstairs?

Ji-su's doing a magazine interview here.

- That's great. - But you can get coffee.

We'll take two lattes for takeout.

Okay.

Should we go upstairs and watch for a bit before we go?

Can we do that?

Of course.

Should we do that, then?

Could you say something about Ms. Son Jeong-a

who must be very special to you?

Jeong-a was so charismatic on the set.

I could feel her focus while acting

and passion on the set very well.

- He looks legit! - I learned a lot.

- If I get another chance - Yeah.

I'd love to work with her again.

I see.

What kind of actor do you want to become?

Whatever it is

don't try so hard to run from it.

Use that time and effort

to stand for what you love.

I'm sure there are things you love.

Do that for a day, a month, then a year.

Keep it up

and one day, you'll feel just fine.

My friend once told me

to stand for what I love.

So, I looked deep inside myself

and realized I loved acting.

She really challenged the way I used to think.

Instead of setting a certain direction for myself

I want to focus on the present and chase what makes my heart beat.

- That's incredible. - Should we get going?

Yeah, let's go.

So, I want to work on a romance project next.

I want it to be a happy, loving story.

I want to find love in a role

and live the life I couldn't live in reality.

- I hope you get that role. - Thanks.

Ji-su's so amazing.

He is.

Alright.

If everyone's free this weekend

why don't we have an Eat Eat Club meeting this weekend?

I have something to say.

Sounds good!

Sounds good!

I have something to tell you.

What is it?

I'm moving in with Jun.

Huh? You two are...

moving in together?

He was tight on money with the gym rent being raised

so I told him to move in with me with just his toothbrush.

It took him a few days to think about it

but he eventually said yes.

Hold up. Isn't it too soon?

Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable?

It's fine. He comes home late and just sleeps all day.

And we were always compatible...

in bed, anyway.

Are you really sure?

I didn't give it a lot of thought before going ahead with it.

I just felt bad for him.

It's not because he's my boyfriend.

I've just never seen anyone so earnest and hardworking.

I see your point.

Life is so tough

so I want to be my Jun's lucky charm.

You've changed.

You've gotten more serious.

Or should I say you grew up?

- Really? - Yeah.

I already have a mature body!

It's too dangerous if I actually become mature, too.

- Aren't I right? - My gosh.

I take back what I just said.

Forget I ever said that.

I should ask if I can invite Jun to the Eat Eat Club, too.

- You're okay with it, right? - Yeah.

Sounds fine with me.

He's family now. I have to make sure he eats well.

- Already? - Ui-yeong!

Can we have a word? And Hyun-min, too.

- Okay. - Okay.

- About the fruit shipment yesterday. - Yes?

The quality is too inconsistent.

The Restaurant Department just complained, saying they couldn't cook with them.

Every box tastes different.

Have you not been managing our suppliers while I was gone?

We checked them when we received them.

You should've done a better job, then.

Are you going to do a half-assed job with everything now?

Didn't we get yesterday's shipment from K Fruits?

You were the one who signed with them...

Stop it.

Can you just make sure we don't have more issues?

Where's Na-ri?

I had to check some docs.

Regarding the fruit complaint.

Yeah, I was just warning them right now.

You were the one

who recommended that supplier.

You did the site visit by yourself, too.

You're the one who messed up with this supplier

so why are you scolding our innocent employees?

What did you say?

What do you mean that I signed them?

Oh, yeah, I visited them.

Ui-yeong, it was a part of the contract to check the quality

so return the whole shipment to K Fruits and make another order.

Oh, and tell them we'll cut ties with them if they mess up like this again.

Okay, got it.

Okay, that's sorted.

But I heard you agreed to Marketing moving up the new menu release

without consulting us.

- We were... - Shouldn't you have discussed it

with your team first before going forward with it?

We don't appreciate the way you do things.

We worked tirelessly to cover for you while you were gone.

But we realized

your absence didn't affect us much.

With Ui-yeong, in particular.

Are you here as my interior designer or as a customer?

About these rings...

Could you make them one more time?

- For you and your girlfriend? - Yeah.

Sure, I can make a special exception just for you.

Do you know your girlfriend's ring size?

I'm not really sure. What do I do?

You can ask for her ring size or bring a ring she wears.

Oh, yeah, she wears a lot of rings.

Should I steal one from her?

I can't work on the rings for a while once you start the renovation

so hurry.

Okay, thank you.

So, that's how it's done.

I love that guy.

I'm hungry.

That's so cool.

Let's go there one day, okay?

Let's go there.

Yeah, I wanted to go, too.

So, that's how they do it.

- Just a sec. - Okay.

Oh, hi, Mr. Eun.

- Hey, Ui-yeong. - Hi.

Sorry for calling you so late.

It's okay.

You know your friend who's getting married next week?

- Yeah, Eun-mi? - Yes.

The manager in charge of the event just got a call

asking how much it'd cost to cancel the wedding now.

Did she? And did she cancel it?

No.

She was surprised by how much it'd cost and hung up.

But she didn't sound like she was okay

so I thought I should tell you.

Okay, thank you.

What's wrong? Something wrong with your finger...

No, something wrong with your friend?

She asked if she could cancel the wedding.

Hmm?

- I'd better call her. - Yeah.

What's going on?

- Hello. - Hello.

- Who's the reservation for? - Lee Eun-mi.

- Oh, come this way. - Okay.

It's the dress for your wedding, right?

You chose a great one!

It suits you so well.

I'll get it ready so that you can try it on.

Oh, I'm not the bride. It's my friend.

- Oh, sorry! - It's okay.

Brides usually come alone on the last fitting day.

Please sit and wait here.

Okay, thank you.

I just wanted to check how much the cancellation would be.

You sure nothing's wrong?

No, everything's fine.

I just thought I was supposed to get married by now.

And I know it's not easy to find a guy who checks all the boxes like my fiancé.

But I don't know why I'm so nervous.

I'm really not sure if this is the man I should commit the rest of my life to.

You must be feeling overwhelmed with the wedding coming up so soon

but I hear it's common to get that "marriage blues."

Eun-mi, you look stunning.

Yeah, I lost so much weight for this.

And spent so much money.

I can't cancel the wedding after inviting everyone.

I'd even embarrass my parents.

I have to go ahead with it.

It looks great.

Yeah, it's beautiful.

Do you really have to get divorced?

Are you sure you won't change your mind?

Yeah, I'm sure of it.

We don't have a lot of time left to live. Let's enjoy it in peace.

Fine.

See you at the court next week.

ORGANIC FERTILIZER

- I'm home! - Hey.

What are you doing? Repotting the plants?

Yeah, I've been putting it off for a while.

I thought this was fully grown because it stopped growing.

Oh.

It stopped growing because the roots had no more space to expand into.

It realized that this was as tall as it could become in this pot.

- Do you want me to help? - No, you'll get dirt on your clothes.

Right. Your dad texted me.

Yeah? What did he say?

He agreed to getting divorced.

We're meeting at court next week.

Okay, I'll keep that in mind.

Okay.

SPEECH FOR THE WEDDING TOAST

In the fairy tales I read as a kid,

marriage was the definition of a happy ending.

But now that I'm older

I completely understand my friend's fear

at the thought of spending her life with one man.

And my mom's divorce looks

like a happy ending where she gets her life back.

So, why do people choose to get married?

Hello

I'm Lee Ui-yeong, a friend of the bride, Eun-mi.

It's a huge honor to join the lovely couple today

in their most precious moment.

For the two to get here...

What brings you here out of the blue? You should've come in.

Aren't you joining us for the Eat Eat Club meeting today?

I wanted to ask you something before that.

Huh?

So, you want to surprise her with a ring

- but don't know her size? - No.

I tried to measure her finger without her knowing, but it wasn't easy.

Could you casually ask her for me without her noticing anything?

Are you trying to do what the young ones do these days

and propose to her?

No, it's not like that.

Why not? Isn't it about time you think about getting married?

I'm always open to it

but it's not something I can do alone.

I'm just waiting for Ui-yeong to become interested in it.

Don't worry, I got you.

I'm the Cupid for you two. Just trust me.

I'll get those rings on both of your fingers.

Okay.

- Eat up. - Could I have some soup?

This is milt. It's a specialty.

I'll mix the drinks my way.

Oh, yeah, drinks! Tae-seop!

Oh, right.

My mom's taking care of the drinks tonight.

Drink whatever you want.

The owner said it was okay.

- Those are some good ones. - Yeah.

- Should we start with the expensive one? - Right on!

- I'll pour them into soju glasses. - Okay.

- Please thank your mom for us. - Okay.

My mom's trying to get healthy.

With that said, Seung-jun

sign my mom and me up for ten personal trainer sessions.

- Really? - Yeah.

I'll take 20 classes, then.

- It'll be fun to work out together. - Yeah!

- Thank you. - It's nothing.

I'll give all of you three extra sessions, then.

Right on!

Is Sae-byeok not coming?

She had tickets to a show, and couldn't cancel it.

I guess she's busy dating her colleague!

- So cute. - Really?

I wanted to break the news with everyone around.

I'm quitting at the hotel soon and leaving the country.

That's so sudden.

Where are you going?

I've been offered the Head Chef position at a fusion restaurant in New York.

I thought I'd announce it before we started eating.

Congratulations!

Congratulations.

- Thank you. - Congratulations!

But could you stay with us a bit longer?

- Mr. Eun! - Yeah?

How can you let such a talented chef leave?

If that's what she wants, what can I do?

Chefs never stay at a place for all that long.

We always move to another place where we can improve.

But thanks to you, I got to try chicken feet

gaebul, sundae

and now, fresh daegu-tang.

This was a huge inspiration.

I'm glad the Eat Eat Club took a part in your growth.

Alright, let's dig in.

- Cheers! Congrats! - Congrats!

- Congrats! - It's on me today.

- Really? - My gosh!

- Thank you. - Thank you!

I can't believe Westerners only deep-fry cod.

The broth is perfect!

You can't forget about us once you taste it.

Not at all. I can't forget this.

It's good, right?

Since we're all here, I also have a question for everyone.

What is it?

I want to get a ring for my wife.

What's your ring size, Ui-yeong?

Me?

Why are you asking Ui-yeong when it's for your wife?

Hmm?

Her hands are as big as Ui-yeong's.

Oh, really?

- My size is... - Yeah?

I have no idea.

I don't think anyone knows their size. Do you?

A small?

I guess I'd be an x-small.

I don't know it, either.

I see.

- Sorry. - It's okay.

Gosh, what should I do now?

I thought you'd know your wife's ring size.

Since you're always so good to her.

Honey, remember mine from now on.

Check my left ring finger.

- Thank you. - Take the ring.

Thank you.

Gosh, I'm a huge disappointment today.

My gosh.

I don't know why I want soju

with all these expensive drinks here.

Man!

Should I pour you a glass?

Sure.

- Oh, my! - Slow down.

Ui-yeong

I'm going back home after filing my divorce at the court

with your mom.

Sorry for causing you so much trouble.

Let's meet up once things are sorted.

SONGI SPICY CHICKEN FEET

Rice balls? Okay!

Hello!

Can I get takeout?

Of course!

How many people is it for?

- Two. - Two?

I'll prepare a medium, then.

I have a takeout order!

Feel free to wait upstairs.

- I'll bring it right to you. - Okay.

Honey, a medium for takeout!

SEOUL FAMILY COURT

Here are your rice balls.

BELOVED TREASURE WE'RE ALL A TREASURE TO SOMEONE

- My son hung that up for us. - I see.

You know how we forget about how precious we are

when life gets crazy.

I wanted my customers to remember it

at least when they were eating their chicken feet.

This is on the house.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

But I feel like your son wrote it

as a reminder to all your customers that they should respect you

because you're precious.

You think so?

Well, I guess my son is the most thoughtful person ever.

By the way, it's your first time here, right?

Yeah, it's my first time

but my daughter loves the chicken feet here.

- Your daughter must be a regular! - Yeah.

She has good taste, you know?

I see.

She has a keen eye

for good ingredients and flavors in food.

Hold on.

I know most of my regulars.

Oh, now that I think about it

the way your lips curve when you smile...

Just kidding, I hvae no idea.

I'll come with her next time.

Sure, come with her

and I'll give you steamed eggs and rice on the house.

- Okay, thank you. - I'll bring your food soon.

Thank you.

I can't wait to try it.

Oh, your parents went to court today.

Yeah.

I thought about going with Mom

but it seemed like they wanted to end things peacefully.

Good choice.

Tae-seop, you know the chair?

- I'm sitting in it right now. - Okay.

What's wrong? Is it uncomfortable?

No, it's the opposite.

See how I'm talking about my parents' divorce so peacefully?

Well

there's a secret to it.

What is it?

The back panel leans back at seven degrees.

That tiny change makes it so comfortable, right?

Yeah, it's the best.

I always have your back, too

so lean on me anytime.

Okay.

Oh, my mom's home.

- I'll call you later. - Okay.

- Hey, Mom. - Hey.

What's that?

- You haven't had dinner, right? - No.

- I got your favorite. - What?

SONGI SPICY CHICKEN FEET

- Songi Spicy Chicken Feet? - Yeah.

So, the owner that I met today is Tae-seop's mom?

Yeah! I was so surprised when I first found out.

Small world, huh?

- Does kindness run in the family? - What?

She gave me a can of soda on the house when I was waiting for the food.

- Did she? - Yeah.

Mom

did everything go smoothly at the court?

Yeah.

Nothing happened. It was quick.

Oh, we have to be back in a month.

I feel so liberated now. I don't know why I took so long.

- Mom - Hmm?

you wouldn't get married if you could go back in time, right?

I think I'd still do it.

You would?

Sure, we separated in the end

but that was the best choice I could make in that point in life.

So, even if I were to go back, I'd probably choose the same.

What if you went back in time with these memories?

People think about this all the time.

I'd try even harder to make the exact same choices, then.

So I can meet you again.

What? Just to bring me into the world?

Yeah, as wild as life gets

being alive is fun.

And I feel less lonely with you.

Maybe I should take days off at work

and enjoy my freedom on a trip.

Maybe learn a new language, too.

I've always wanted to learn Spanish.

Should we go together?

Should we get a savings account to save for trips?

- That's a great idea! - Right?

You can pay for 70% of it.

I swear you're an evil stepmom.

How do I look? Do I look okay?

"Okay"? You look like an angel!

I made sure to warm up my lips for that speech.

Make sure to stretch your facial muscles because you're about to laugh nonstop.

- Hey! - Hey, you're here!

- Come and take photos. - Come and sit.

- The main character. - Ta-da!

I feel so nervous.

GUESTS FOR THE BRIDE

I've heard a lot about you.

Thank you.

- Hello. - Congratulations.

- Thank you! - He grew up so much!

- My goodness! - I haven't seen you in forever.

- Don't they look so happy? - The dress looks perfect on her!

- She looks amazing. - Right?

- She looks like a princess. - She looks so happy.

- Right? - Inspired yet?

- Come on. - Stop it.

- I know. - Ui-yeong.

Oh, hi.

That's my boyfriend.

- Ui-yeong! - No way!

- He's so handsome! - You think so?

You met him on a blind date?

How did you get a man like that?

Say hi to my friends.

Hello, I'm Song Tae-seop.

- Hello. - Hello.

We're her friends from college.

Yeah, she's told me a lot about you.

Really?

- You two look great together. - Really?

Let's go on double dates sometime.

Sure, invite me anytime.

Okay!

- The wedding is about to begin. - Let's go.

- Should we head in? - Yeah.

- We'll go. - See you!

- See you. - Bye.

He's so handsome!

Excuse me!

You're a friend of the bride, right?

Yes, is something wrong?

The bride...

won't come out.

Sorry?

She won't come out.

Oh...

This way.

BRIDE'S WAITING ROOM

Here.

She wanted to be left alone for a bit, so I left her

but now, she's locked the door and won't even answer.

Should I ask the venue manager for the key?

No, I'll try talking to her.

Okay.

I'll wait outside.

Okay.

Eun-mi, it's me.

- Ui-yeong? - Yeah.

Are you okay? Are you not feeling well?

My heart is beating too fast. I feel like throwing up.

And the dress is so suffocating.

I did some research

and it's still better to break up and pay the penalty before the wedding.

Eun-mi

don't think about anything for now.

Can you just open the door for me?

I'm alone.

Come on, Eun-mi.

Eun-mi...

It's okay.

It's natural to feel nervous and scared.

But...

being scared of getting married

and being unsure about the man himself are different things.

Did he really never feel like he was the one?

Ho-jin...

Are you okay, Eun-mi?

We really have to go now.

It's okay.

Being a little late isn't a big deal.

Okay.

I know it's been a lot.

You've been in an uncomfortable dress all day

pretending to be completely fine.

Eun-mi

you don't have to go into the hall if it's too much. It's fine.

Ho-jin...

It's okay.

I'll always be by your side.

Okay?

I'm ready to go in.

I'm ready.

Hello, I'm the host of today's ceremony

and the groom's friend, Yoo Jeong-hwa.

On behalf of the bride and the groom

as well as their families

- What's wrong? - thank you to everyone

- for making time in your busy day. - My speech is

too oblivious.

It's too happy.

Just wing it, then.

Whatever will be helpful, as long as it's from your heart.

Let's now begin Jung Ho-jin and Lee Eun-mi's wedding.

Please look to the back.

The bride and the groom will now enter in your blessing.

Bride and groom, please enter.

Please give them a big applause to wish them a bright future.

Friends, please cheer harder for them.

The two are holding hands

and calmly walking toward a future together.

You have taken your wedding vows

to be with each other forevermore.

This is a vow

to love and cherish each other

in sickness and in health

in sadness and in joy

and in every circumstance.

Now, we will hear a wedding toast from the bride's friend.

Here I go.

HELLO, I'M LEE UI-YEONG, A FRIEND OF THE BRIDE, EUN-MI

Hello

I'm the friend's bride...

The bride's friend, Lee Ui-yeong.

I'm incredibly nervous right now

but I know the bride and the groom standing in front of me

must be so much more nervous.

In fact, they might feel like their lives will flip upside-down

by the time they leave the hall after the wedding.

THIRD ACT COMPANY ACTOR MEETING

Take your time to read it, Ji-su.

Okay.

THIRD ACT COMPANY ACTOR CONTRACT

We become hesitant before making a big choice

because we have no idea

where our choice today

will lead us to in the future.

ACTOR SHIN JI-SU

We don't know what doors will open

and what doors will close.

The previous scene is taking a bit longer.

We don't know what we'll see at the end of it, either.

None of us know

until we try.

JEONG-A WAS INCREDIBLE ON THE SET. I COULD FEEL HER FOCUS AND PASSION

We make endless calculations

to brace ourselves for the craziness of life

wonder all the "what ifs"

and just hope for the best sometimes.

Boo!

But in the end, life seems to be a journey

of learning to go forward amidst all the uncertainty.

Marriage seems to be the same.

Of course, your lives together will not always be smooth.

You'll have as many sad days as happy ones

and sometimes, you'll face surprises.

But despite that

if you trust each other, prepare yourselves to go through anything

and want to walk into the uncertain future with each other

I'd like to wish the couple

nothing but the best until the end as they courageously take on life.

Congratulations on getting married.

Groom and bride, march!

Please give them a big applause.

What a day it was, huh?

Yeah.

Seeing the bride laugh and cry

made me realize how big of a deal getting married was.

I feel like I just saw my child get married.

- You did well. - Yeah.

Oh, you want to take a walk before heading back?

Sure.

Here.

What did you write in the speech that you prepared?

Oh, Eun-mi specifically asked me

not to make her cry.

I see.

So, I took a very statistical approach.

- You want to hear it? - Yeah.

"Korea has 50 million people, 15 of which whom are single.

Half of them are men, so, that's 7.5 million

and assuming only 90% are straight that leaves 6.8 million.

So, what are the chances of you falling in love with just one of them?"

- That's a very slim chance. - Exactly.

That was my speech.

That it was a miracle for them to meet and fall in love.

Oh, I have a present.

What is it?

It's beautiful.

I wanted to give you one since the first time I met you.

It was a bit hard to get your ring size, though.

How did you figure it out?

Thanks.

You want to go with me?

Yeah, take me!

Bring me to New York, too.

- Cheers! - Cheers!

We drank so much.

This looks great.

- I love you, Ui-yeong! - Me too!

Love you!

I love you, Chef!

Me too.

- You have to come back. - I love you extra, Tae-seop!

Hello, sir.

Oh, hi!

- Did you finally get her ring size? - Yeah.

That's her size.

Oh, this is her size?

Give me your hand. I'll put it on.

Is this it?

The moment my friends described?

Here.

What do you think?

- Tae-seop. - Yeah?

I don't just like you.

I love you deeply.

How do you always know and prepare exactly what I need?

Because I'm always watching you.

Me? Her boyfriend.

And this is a drilling machine for drilling holes.

- I'm calling the cops! Three! - Three.

Hi, Sae-byeok.

Let's build a relationship the way we want.

I couldn't stop thinking about you, so here I am.

I'm glad we met now.

I like you.

I like you, too.

You can't sleep here!

Tae-seop

thanks for coming to look for me.

Oh, gosh!

I'm sorry!

Hello, I'm Song Tae-seop.

I'm Lee Ui-yeong.

Ui-yeong

how do you feel about dating me

with marriage in mind?

- Tae-seop. - Yeah?

Will you...

be my boyfriend...

with marriage in mind?

Of course.
