(Episode 4)

You punk, do you know what that money is?

Sir,

without that money, all six of us
will be out on the street.

Please, just give back the money...

you conned out of me, sir.

Conned? Who conned who, you punk?

Conned?

Help me.

Somebody help.

Mu Jin, wake up.

Mu Jin, please wake up!

Where is he hurt? What happened?

How bad is it?

How did this even happen?

It's not life-threatening, right?

(Dad)

Dad, let me call you back...

Gyu Rim!

Dad.

Do you have any money on you?

(In Surgery)

Yun Jin.

What's going on?

What happened to your face, Dad?

We've lost the house.

What do you mean?

We're about to be out on the street!

What are you talking about?

Well...

What is all this?

Overdue notices, final demands,
auction filing, an eviction order!

You never come home,
but you smuggled these out just fine.

I knew you'd all lose it if you found out,

so I had someone handle it quietly.

You took out a loan against this house?

I was going to pay it all back,

but some punks conned me out of it,

and I went without food or sleep,

even staked the place out
to get that money back,

I barely made it out alive.

Turns out they were gangsters.

Nasty tempers,

and scary as all get-out.

So,

do you two have any money?

Even for a security deposit?

For all six of us to move out today...

We'd need at least two bedrooms,

and a bathroom...

Let's just each fend for ourselves.

Since when were we ever
that tight-knit anyway?

You go your way, Gyu Rim goes hers,
and I'll go mine.

Gyu O's all grown up now too,

so let's scatter and each
get by on our own.

Then what about Gyu Min and Gyu Seo?

What about the twins?

Since when did you ever look after them?

Their mom ran off when they were three,

and you dumped them on Gyu Rim
and washed your hands of them!

That's enough.

Why? Am I making this up?

You need to wake up too.

Ten years of raising them
is more than enough.

I say we drop them at an orphanage,
even now.

Shut your mouth, Han Gyu Yeong.

Leave the kids out of it,

and if anyone's leaving, it's you.

Fine, I'm leaving.

I'm walking out of this wretched house!

That temper of hers.

Who does she take after?

You take after me exactly, Gyu Rim.

How long until we have to be out?

Soon.

Right away.

You really don't have any money?

Nothing squirreled away somewhere?

Really?

I'll pay you back later
with generous interest.

I'll see what I can do.

Gyu Rim, you really are the eldest
of this family.

You know you're my oxygen tank, right?

Seriously...

I'm off.

Have a lovely life together without me.

(Jeong Woo)

Hello?

- Gyu Rim.
- Jeong Woo!

The surgery went well,

and he was moved to a room
a little while ago.

Why was Mu Jin at a construction site?

He wouldn't let me tell you because
he didn't want you to worry.

Mu Jin was thrown out of the house,

and he was working shifts...

at a construction site.

Han Gyu Rim?

I'm Mu Jin's sister.

You're saying you didn't know
he was working construction?

He's never lifted a brick in his life,

and the smell of pain patches
must have been all over him.

You had no idea at all?

- Should we sit here?
- Sure.

- What's this smell of pain patches?
- What?

I hurt myself a bit at the gym earlier.

You should be careful. Let me see.

- See what?
- Come on, let me see.

It's nothing. Really.

- Is it bad?
- No, I'm fine.

You didn't know he'd left the house
and was living in a tiny rented room?

What do you know about Mu Jin?

He gave up everything for you.

Just let him go.

Mu Jin is more than,

you can handle.

I'm begging you, Han Gyu Rim.

Stop crying, sweetheart.
They said the surgery went well.

It's because of what I said.

I was so angry I said
I hoped he'd break a leg,

and that's why...

This isn't your fault.

I'm telling you, it's not your fault.

He'll be up soon, won't he?

He's really going to be okay, right?

Of course.

You'll collapse yourself at this rate.

Aren't you dizzy?

Want some water?

Come on now, stop crying.

Do you live around here?

No. I mean, yes.

People are going to think
we're a real couple.

I know.

I'm confessing to you right now.

Just look at me.

I think I've fallen for you, Gyu Rim.

If I don't tell you how I feel now,

I felt like I'd lose you for good.

My heart's pounding right now.

This took real courage.

Just keep falling for me.

Hide it if you like,

but I'd rather you didn't.

Hell or high water,

I'll go anywhere with you,

so don't run from me.

Gyu Rim,

may I hold you?

Why would we ever break up?

That won't happen
as long as you don't leave.

I spent all day terrified...

that you'd want to end it.
Do you know how scared I was?

(Seizure Notice)

You can't take that off.

What is this, Gyu Rim?

It means those things aren't ours anymore.

There's one on my bed and desk too.

I'll buy you a new bed and desk soon,
Gyu Seo.

This is Han Gyu Rim.

Just give me the hundred thousand.

A hundred thousand dollars?

A hundred thousand to walk away
from Mu Jin,

sounds like a fair deal to me.

A deal?

Honestly,

when I heard Mu Jin was rich,

I was shocked, but part of me
was absolutely thrilled.

Was I becoming the Cinderella
I'd only seen in movies?

I'd never have to grind through
this miserable life again.

I was thrilled. I really was.

But then he's thrown out
and hurt working construction.

I thought, "Wait..."

"This isn't right."

The more I thought about it,

the more unsettled I felt.

Is that really what you have to say
after seeing him fight for his life?

And whose fault is it?

Who did he give up everything for?

I never asked him to give up everything.

Didn't you love him?

I did.

I did love him,

but once I found out
what kind of family he came from...

Kim Mu Jin, a broke day laborer,

What's so attractive about him now?

How can you say that?

As things stand,

I'd be carrying him alone,
without a cent of support from you.

Honestly, I'm not up for it.

We dated for only one year.

It's not like we're married.

I'm barely holding on as it is.

How do I know how long
those injuries will drag on?

I can't. I don't want to.

Are you even human?

Are you?

And he gave up everything
for a girl like you...

I don't want to waste another word
on someone as shallow as you.

Don't ever contact me again.

What's this?

A voice recorder.

Play it for him when he wakes up.

He isn't a man who gives up easily.

It'll take this much to put an end to it.

So you planned this from the start...

I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused.

What about...

the hundred thousand?

I don't need it.

Are you all right?

The doctor says apart from the fracture,
everything is normal.

You don't need to worry too much.

Give me my phone.

Your phone? It wasn't there.

Did you lose it?

What happened?

How long has it been since the accident?

Three days.

Gyu Rim...

She must be worried sick.

She came by.

Did you tell her everything?

Did you tell her I got hurt
on a construction site?

I told her you were walking along...

and lightning struck you out of the sky.

Well,

I made something up,
said I didn't really know either,

that I got the call and rushed over.

You're dead if you tell her the truth.

Dead either way, I suppose.

- What?
- Nothing.

Gyu Rim must be worried a lot, right?

Well...

She came the first day
and never came back.

Not one call to ask how you were.

What are you doing?
Going to her in that state?

Call Gyu Rim for me.

The number you have dialed
is unavailable...

No answer. She must be busy.

Try once more.

The number you have dialed...

She's not picking up.

Text her that I'm awake,

and that she shouldn't worry.

All right.

Jeong Woo, could you give us a moment?

- Sure.
- Thanks.

- You all right?
- I'm fine.

Sorry for scaring you.

There's something I need to tell you.

I thought about waiting
until you'd recovered,

- but it's better you hear it now.
- What is it?

About the Han Gyu Rim
you gave up everything for.

You met her?

She called and asked to meet.

Just give me the hundred thousand.

A hundred thousand dollars?

A hundred thousand to walk away
from Mu Jin sounds like a fair deal.

(Seizure Notice)

Honestly,

when I heard Mu Jin was rich,

I was shocked, but part of me
was absolutely thrilled.

Was I becoming the Cinderella
I'd only seen in movies?

I'd never have to grind through
this miserable life again.

I was thrilled. I really was.

As things stand,

I'd be carrying him alone,
without a cent of support from you.

Honestly, I'm not up for it.

We dated for one year,

it's not like we're married,

and I'm barely holding on as it is.

How do I know how long
those injuries will drag on?

I can't do it.

- I don't want to.
- Turn it off.

What did you do to Gyu Rim?

What would I have to do
to make her say things like that?

I want to be alone.

All right. Get some rest.

Thank you. I've had a look around.

- All right, goodbye.
- Thank you.

- You okay?
- Yes.

Thanks.

Who are you?

Is Gyu Rim here?

Who?

Han Gyu Rim.

Did you just come out of the house?

What are you talking about?
It's my house. I live here.

So you've just moved in...

Then...

- what about the people who lived here...
- How would I know?

The people who lived here...

even after they got an eviction order,

they took forever to move out.
They were such a nightmare.

(Gyu Rim)

The number you have dialed
is not in service.

Please check the number and try again.

(Eight years later)

(The Most Precious Thing in the World)

Is that a flower?

And what's this puppy?

- Is that your puppy, Yun Hu?
- Yes.

So cute.

- Isn't he pretty?
- Yes, very pretty.

- Is that your teddy bear, Jin Ju?
- Yes.

It must be your favorite bear.
Five hearts.

You drew it so well.

Who's this? The most precious person
in the world to you, Gyeol?

That's my mom.

Your mom must be so happy.

But Gyeol, what's this dot?

That's my dad.

- Your dad?
- Yes.

But he's still precious to you, right?

You did draw him, even as a dot.

Well, he did bring me into the world.

That's about how grateful I am.

I see.

Mom!

- My boy! You're back?
- Mom!

How was school? Did you have fun?

Yes, it was fun. This is for you.

What's this?

Gyeol, who's this pretty lady?

That's you.

My teacher told us to draw
the most precious thing in the world.

- I'm the most precious person to you?
- Yes.

And next week I'm representing
my class in the art contest.

Really? You're the best, Gyeol!

Yes!

You must be so pleased.

A sweet, pretty daughter-in-law
and a bright, adorable grandson.

Of course I am. Couldn't be happier.

Why am I your grandson?

And why is my mom your daughter-in-law?

Why are you making things up?

I'm saying I think of you and your mom...

as my grandson and daughter-in-law.

How can something so tiny be so prickly?

- Good luck with sales.
- Enjoy it and come again.

Goodbye.

Now, come on,

we've spent enough years together,

so let's make it official already.

No.

Gyeol, are you going to keep
being rude to Su Nam?

But what if her tall tales
keep you from getting married?

Why wouldn't she get married?

Heung Sik is right there waiting.

Exactly. That's the problem.

What on earth is that supposed to mean?

What's the problem with my son waiting?

Let's leave it there and get to work.

You just don't know any better.
In all the world,

there's no better man than my son.

Still, my mom's too good for him.

Even if Kim Woo Bin came along,
she'd still be too good for him.

What am I to do with you?

So little and so picky
when you know nothing.

Gyeol, check my phone for me.

(Gyu Yeong)

- It's Gyu Yeong.
- Could you take it?

Hey, you know that white dress
I bought last month?

The chiffon one, all floaty.

I need it tomorrow,
so take it to the cleaners...

Is my mom your secretary?

Do your own errands.

Stop working my mom to the bone!

Hey.

Gyeol...

Good for you. Well done, Gyeol.

I feel like a huge weight
has finally been lifted.

Your aunt, that sly woman,
needed to be put in her place.

Well done, sharp one.

That little thing!

Yes, sweetheart.

(Medical License)

I wanted to wear it tomorrow
to your cousin's wedding,

so I asked my sister
to take it to the cleaners,

but that little squirt Gyeol,

told me not to work his mom...

Really?

I was just upset, that's all...

You'll really buy me a new dress?

You're the absolute best.

Yes.

(Cliad Medical Skin Clinic)

It's time for Song Ji Yeong's
consultation.

- Send her in.
- Yes.

I'll see you after work, sweetheart.

Sure.

(Doctor Han Gyu Yeong)

What brings you in today?

Could I...

look like Suzy too?

- Sorry? Suzy?
- Yes.

It's not possible, is it?

Absolutely not.

You'd struggle even if you died
and tried again in the next life.

(Clinic Revenue equals Incentives)

It won't be easy, of course,

but nothing is impossible.

Shall we find a way together,
step by step?

Yes.

Excuse me, how about getting up?

It's past three in the afternoon.

If you were asleep when I left for school,

shouldn't you at least be awake...

by the time I get back?

How long do you plan to live like this?

You've got your whole life ahead of you.

Don't you want to start living
properly, even now?

You sound just like an old lady...

Why do you talk like that? It's so weird.

Don't change the subject.
Are you going to sort yourself out or not?

Why do you care
whether I get my act together or not?

Because if you don't,
my mom has to work harder.

What a devoted son.

Makes those of us without sons jealous.

Listen, Gyeol.

Like I always say,

my life is mine, and yours is yours.

From now on, let's stay out
of each other's lives.

- Deal?
- We're not strangers. We're family.

How can family do that?

Look at that cool expression. I can't!

I'm dying.

If what I'm looking
at isn't perfection, then what is?

When Gyu Seo graduates next year,
I might just drop out.

There's no point being here without him.

- He's so handsome.
- Ridiculously handsome.

Can I have one of these?

Can I have one too?

- Sure.
- Thanks.

- Idol trainees really are different.
- Seriously.

This is some serious relative deprivation.

Is it really relative?
Feels pretty absolute.

- Let's play football.
- At lunch, yeah.

Hey, I heard his twin sister
goes here too.

If she's his twin,
she must be gorgeous, right?

You idiot.

Did you forget last year, when you begged
to switch seats because you hated her?

Why bring her up and jinx the day?

- Okay.
- Want to join us?

He and she are twins?

I should make friends.

Unbelievable...

There's some left, though.

Gyu Min. Han Gyu Min.

Set me up with Gyu Seo just once.

Please.

You like spicy rice cakes, right?

I'll treat you to the best place around,

so how about you bring Gyu Seo along?

Or just invite me to your place once?

When's your birthday?

You're twins, so September 10, right?

I'm not close with Han Gyu Seo.

If you want to meet him,
go talk to him yourselves,

and take all of this back.

Gyu Min.

I'm going home.

Han Gyu Min! Let's go home.

Where are you going?

- Han Gyu Seo!
- Su Bin.

- What?
- I'm off.

- Go ahead.
- Han Gyu Min, wait for me.

Get off me, Han Gyu Seo.

I'm begging you,
stop acting like we're close.

How am I supposed to act?

- We are close.
- Hey.

We're family, and twins on top of that,

so it'd be stranger to act like we're not.

Do you know how much grief you cause me?

Because of you, I have no life at all.
None.

All I want...

is to keep my head down and go unnoticed.

At school at least,
can we be strangers? Please.

Fine, I get it. I'm sorry.

But you're not...

sulking, are you?

You scared me. Don't do that.

We're outside the gates,
so this isn't school.

Inside, I'll do as you say,

so outside I get to do as I please, right?

So now you're acting close?

You know you're the worst?

I suppose I am.

- Why take my bag?
- Heavy bags stunt your growth.

Let's squeeze out every last inch
while you still can.

Get over here. Give it back. Give it.

Grow up big and strong
and enter a beauty pageant.

You should've shared some of that height!

Still angry?

Want spicy rice cakes? My treat.

No, you go ahead and eat.

They're terrible for a diet.

You're not on a diet, are you?

You were wolfing down
black bean noodles yesterday,

so I figured the diet was over.

I am on one. The weight just won't go.

And the black bean noodles were your idea.

Han Gyu Seo, hey.

Who are you?

Why have you been trailing us for days?

Are you the woman who abandoned us?

The gold digger who ran off in the night
with another man and everything we had?

Ma'am!

I'm sorry for following you.

My daughter's completely lovesick
over you,

so I came to see
just how handsome you are.

Honestly,

Why do you have to look
like an idol and draw a crowd?

Just debut already.

Then we could watch you from home on TV.

My arm.

Let's go.

(No couples allowed)

(Da Solo welcomes solo diners,
friends, and family gatherings)

One T-bone and one tomato pasta
for table three.

Yes, Chef.

When did you make this?

An hour ago.

It's fine.

- A little less salt too.
- Yes.

You'll break the grains that way.

- Fold it in, like this.
- Yes, Chef.

Everyone, this place lives up to the hype.

The taste goes without saying.

Can you see the quality
of every single ingredient?

It's absolutely superb.

First, the vegetables,

so crisp and fresh you'd think
they were picked minutes ago.

The meat has flavor, juices, and a sear
with nothing missing.

But,

this place isn't just famous for the food.

Right. Is this really a paradise
for singles and doom for couples?

Couples who aren't on a family register,

guy friends, girl friends,
men, women, all of them.

Anyway,

are all couples really banned...

from entering and dining?

That's what's left to confirm.

They look ordinary at first glance.

All family? Or married?

By any chance,

are you really married?

Aren't you high schoolers?

Of course we are. We just look young.

May I see
your family relations certificate?

I forgot to bring it.

You can pull it up
on your phone these days.

Just access the government portal...

What restaurant asks customers
for a family relationship certificate?

Can you really demand
people's personal information?

That was the rule from the start.
If you don't like it, go elsewhere.

We won't charge you for the meal,
so please leave.

Let's go, honey.

Would you clear this away?

Chef, we need to talk.

Go ahead.

You absolute...

lunatic.

Of all people to fight, a customer,
and over something that ridiculous.

Ridiculous?

You said it sounded fun when we opened.

What exactly is the problem?

The fact that you can't see the problem
is the problem.

Why should your absurd rule...

force perfectly happy couples
to take separate tables,

sit apart,

pining over Wi-Fi like separated lovers,

then reunite outside
like long-lost family?

Who are you to tear couples apart?

What are you, some kind
of relationship wrecker?

If they don't like it,
they can eat somewhere else.

Running a charity, are we?

What, are you keeping every other
restaurant around here in business?

Ever since we opened,
business has been dead...

every Valentine's Day, White Day,
and Christmas have been a bust.

Whenever everyone else is cashing in,

you always have to make things
worse for me.

This is all because of Han Gyu Rim...

Fighting again?

Your ages add up to 70 now.
Aren't you embarrassed?

Good timing, Seo Hyeon.

Listen and judge for yourself.

Is it sane to run a restaurant
and turn couples away like this?

Some customers will take offense.

But you said plenty come
precisely because it's fun.

You said single people call the place
their own personal paradise,

and back it wholeheartedly.

Right, Jang Seo Hyeon.

You'd take his side
even if he sold the country out.

I was an idiot to ask you.

I'm off.

I'm not finished. Where are you going?

Honestly,

I don't know why we have to fight
this hard over this,

but if it's stressing you out that much,
I'll give it another thought.

Let's talk again before we open tomorrow.

At this rate, we'll just end up
sniping at each other.

Doesn't it get old?

What?

Staring at the back of a man's head
when he won't even look at you.

I've seen it so much I'm used to it now.

You're not getting any younger.
How long are you...

Until I'm 40.

Doing what until you're 40?

I've liked him since I was ten.
That's 30 years by the time I'm 40.

If it's still not meant to be,
I'll give up.

Found something to tease me about again.

On your 30th anniversary
of unrequited love,

win or lose, I'll hang
a gold medal around your neck.

Thirty years at anything...

deserves that much praise and respect.

If you're giving one, make it solid gold.
Chain and medal both.

A full 30 grams.

Are you insane?
Do you know the price of gold now?

Jeong Woo, I'm off. See you.

She's not right in the head either.

Mu Jin.

Where are you going?

I've got something on.

Let's eat together another time.

Where to?

Meeting a woman?

It's nothing like that.

Then I'll come along.

That settles it.

Hey.

Got you.

So close.

- Enjoy your meal.
- Thank you.

What's this, a corn dog?

Is a corn dog going to be enough?

Eat, do what you need to,
and head off first.

It's fine. I have emails to send,

so don't mind me
and do what you came to do.

Yeah? All right.

One more round.

(Tyrant of Steel)

Got him!

How does a person change this much?

There we go. Dodged it.

Did he really hit his head that hard?

I just got him, right?

Come on.

You're that mad about coming in fourth?

Come on!

What's wrong?

This guy keeps blocking me
and blasting me with items.

What?

He did this last time too.

I'd worn the boss down, and he swooped
in for the final hit and stole the kill,

took all the points and leveled up.
Where does that leave me?

That's such a dirty way to play.

What a no-life loser.

This is pissing me off.

Hey there.

- Hey, what are you doing?
- What?

You keep getting in my way.

You did the same thing
when I was fighting the boss.

I didn't know. Sorry. It was an accident.

Didn't know? Accident?

If you're that clueless
you must be a beginner,

then stick to your own level.

Seriously, quit playing like that.

Excuse me. It was an accident
and I already apologized for it.

That's uncalled for.

So what you did doesn't matter,
but what I said does?

You mess someone up on purpose,
then "sorry, accident" and that's it?

Jeong Woo was right.
People really turn into kids over games.

People like this need to be called out.

(It's just a game. Why so serious...)

Seriously. What is wrong with you?

You want some?

Why do you always say stuff like that?

I swear.

Mom!

How dare you threaten
somebody's precious son?

Move aside, Gyeol. Move.

Move.

Honestly.

Mom, just ignore people like him.

No. You have to shut people
like him down early.

That's what items are for.

You're supposed to use them.

He lost because he's bad at it,
and now he's picking a fight?

Well?

He's asking for a real-life fight.

Don't give him our address.

What if he comes after us?

People like that are all bark and no bite.

They just act tough from behind a screen.

But what if he really finds us?

Don't worry. You've got me.

I'll protect you,
so don't give it another thought.

He's obviously just a little kid.
What does he think he's doing?

What school does he go to?

You messed with the wrong person.

Let's settle this once and for all.

See? I told you not to come.

No. It was fun.

Where else do I get a show
like that for free?

I've known you since you were twelve,
and today I saw a whole new side of you.

Completely adorable and human.

- Go on in.
- Hold on.

Mom, I'm at the door.
Is there anything to eat?

Yes, got it. I'll be right up.

Since you're here, stay for dinner.

You like my mom's cooking.

What's so great about him
that you even feed him?

Good evening, sir.

Dad.

What? Am I wrong?

A man who treats my daughter
like leftovers,

why would I feed him a warm meal?

Why are you doing this?

Why do you keep sending mixed signals?

Why walk her home,

and why agree to eat her mother's food?

- It's not like that, Dad.
- Stay out of it.

He has a mouth of his own.

With respect, I've never sent
Seo Hyeon mixed signals, sir.

Really? He didn't confuse you?

He's right. I asked him to walk me home,

and I offered him dinner
to thank him for it.

Dad, you don't know anything.

This makes me angrier.

What are you lacking that you keep
throwing yourself at someone like him?

And what makes you so special?

Is Seo Hyeon not good enough for you?

Not at all, sir. Absolutely not.

- She isn't?
- No, sir.

You never led her on.

This is your problem.

Dad.

He's hopeless.

You're supposed to keep
the other person guessing,

push a little, let them push back,

then pull them in.
What are you, a stone wall?

Just sitting there sealed up tight.

It's maddening.

- No food. Off you go.
- Yes, sir.

- Dad!
- I'll be in touch again.

Goodnight, sir.

Take the same lift. Hurry.

Sweetheart.

- Do you like it?
- Yes.

Marry me, Gyu Yeong.

Marry you?

I'll...

pull down the stars and the moon for you,

and make you truly happy.

Please marry me.

Will you marry me?

Yes.

It's beautiful.

- I love you.
- I love you too.

It suits you so well.

So beautiful. Does it look good?

Those were the days.

I had a time like that once too.

Everything good and lovely
seems to vanish too fast.

It hasn't vanished.

It's all still here with you.

Here,

and here,

and here.

Honestly.

Why is it suddenly so warm in here?

Shall we go up now?

I'd like to rest a bit.

Just let me finish this. Cheers.

Sweetheart, are you all right?

I'll just pop to the restroom.

- Wait here.
- Sure.

When did you even arrange all this?

Does it suit me?

Even being generous,
she looks a dozen years older than you.

You've got strange taste.

Mind your own business.

Looks like you got a ring,

you're not actually marrying him?

Mind your own business.

And if I do?

Did the size of that diamond blind you?

You think this is my first ring?

Are you really getting married?

I'm considering it favorably.

His face is decent enough,
his education isn't bad,

and above all, he has serious money.

You don't care about character?

He has enough money that I don't have to.
Satisfied?

Have you saved anything?

A guy I know from a host bar
even bought an apartment.

That's what you wanted to say?

Easy come, easy go.

Don't blow it just because it comes easy.

Buy yourself a studio at least.

You're the first person
to find out what I do,

and that's what you want to say?

What should I say, then?

Of all the jobs out there,
why become a kept man?

Should I faint from the shock?

Do I look like Han Gyu Rim?

Forget it. I'm the fool for asking.

Little brat.

Of all the jobs out there.

Whatever.

It's his life, not mine.

- Mom.
- Yes?

What was Dad like?

Why bring that up now?

No reason.

My teacher asked about him earlier...

and I had nothing to say.

Honestly, I've never cared before.

And I probably won't going forward,

so you don't have to tell me
if you'd rather not.

I'm not dying to know or anything.

He's your dad,
so he must be a good person, right?

What else? Is he handsome?

Is he tall? Does he look like me?

He's handsome. Tall, too.

Does he look like you? Let me see.

You do look alike.

Is he even still alive?

Yes.

Then do you...

miss him?

Do you miss him, Gyeol?

No.

I just need you.

(Geumje Police, respect and consideration,
community safety with our residents)

The stress had me out of my mind.

I think my emotions got the better of me.

I'm truly sorry for what I did.

Will this do?

Honestly.

How badly do you have to swear
at a game...

to get reported and hauled
in for questioning?

I looked it up. These almost never
become formal investigations.

How bad was it?

I'm a victim too, you know.

I took so much abuse at that screen
I wasn't crying tears,

- I was crying blood.
- Right. Well done.

Swearing and getting sworn at,
then hauled in for questioning together.

- You two are practically soulmates.
- How old is he?

Never mind his age.
Tell that soulmate of yours...

that you're a bit unwell mentally
and ask him to let it go,

then settle it amicably.

Why? Want a lawyer? Shall I come?

No, I'm fine. I'm off.

What, does he think he's Benjamin Button?

It's worse than that.

How is he getting more immature?

Forget it.

Don't come back.

Mr. Kim Mu Jin?

Yes.

Then you must be Han Gyeol's...

guardian?

The account is Gyeol's,
but the swearing was mine.

I see. You're both old enough
to know better.

Please take a seat, both of you.

"You absolute piece of work,"

"watching you, I feel awful
for the mother who gave birth to you,"

"ten months of suffering
for a piece of trash."

Ms. Han Gyu Rim.

Did you actually say this?

Yes.

And Mr. Kim Mu Jin,

"You absolute waste of space."

"Instead of worrying about my mother,
worry about your own."

"Is she even alive?"

"Or did she pass from the shame already?"

That's what you said.

- Yes.
- What did you mean by this?

Let's hear from each of you.

There was no grand meaning.

I think I lost my temper in the moment.

Neither of you wants
the other prosecuted, correct?

No.

No.

It's a first offense for you both,

and you both seem remorseful,
so settle this between you,

write letters of apology,
and exchange them.

If you're reported for this again,

it won't end this way next time.

- Yes.
- Understood.

Let me think.

Not here. Both of you, follow me.

Call me when you've finished
your apology letters.

- Excuse me...
- Just write it and go.

Planning to run again?

If you're going to run, do it properly,

so we never have to meet like this.

Mom.

My boy.

Mom, that must have been so hard.

Gyeol kept saying he wanted to see you,
so I brought him along.

Did everything go all right?

Here, eat this.

You shouldn't have.

(Love on the Menu)

Let's go, honey.

So that man is her husband?

She's gone and married too?

- He wants to start over?
- Hey!

So the feelings are still there.

You never got over him.

- She has a son too?
- Eight years old, apparently.

Han Gyu Rim broke up with Mu Jin
eight years ago.

You'd only have to pretend to be my father
once. Actually, just twice.

Let's go shopping for clothes
at the department store.

Why clothes all of a sudden?

- For meeting the in-laws.
- Who's meeting in-laws?

- Gyu Yeong.
- What?
