Original subtitles

I had a really interesting experience today.

I'll have to go there again with Yool and Go Bong.

Okay.

See you tomorrow.

Excuse me, Borg's mom.

You know that I'll always be on your side, right?

I didn't know that.

I'll save...

that in my data from now on.

Who is that man?

I think I saw him at the amusement park.

Is that Borg's dad?

Was he following us?

Oh, my gosh.

It's quite a surprising development...

if my test subject made...

a male friend.

But...

I will destroy...

that jerk.

I will tear him apart.

This is too much.

Uncle Young Cheol, are you waiting for a call from the woman you love?

Yes, but she's not calling me.

Call her first then.

Yool.

There is always a push and pull for everything in this world.

Push and pull?

Look.

If you push this clay too much,

it will tear apart because it's too thin.

If you pull too much, it will break apart.

An appropriate amount of push and pull is needed for everything.

Push...

and pull.

Okay.

Push and pull.

Yool?

Mom.

Did you behave well when you were with Dad?

No, Dad went out.

Didn't you go with Go Bong?

I'm home.

Go Bong, did something happen?

You look upset.

It's a secret.

I'm tired, so I'm going to sleep.

Don't talk to me.

You didn't forget that we're going camping tomorrow, right?

It's a secret.

Don't talk to me.

Go Bong, I'll prepare for the camping trip.

Uncle Young Cheol, are my parents...

also doing push and pull right now?

I guess so.

(My Queen)

There we go. This is nice.

- Are you that happy? - Yes.

(Decline)

Decline.

Why won't you take her call?

Yool, what I'm doing...

is a push.

Adults are so tiresome.

Yool, I'm leaving.

Young Cheol, I can't play with you tomorrow...

because my friends, their family,

and my teacher are going camping.

So don't come home.

I'm not playing with you. I'm taking care of you.

Will Audrey go for camping as well?

Of course.

Everyone's going?

Welcome. It's our vacation cottage.

Coco, they're here.

Welcome.

Come here. Go on and greet them.

- Oh, Grace! Welcome. - Hi!

Oh, my. It's amazing here.

Hello, Do Hye.

Hi, Ti Na!

- Isn't it so nice here? - Yes, it has a nice vibe.

Only Borg is coming with his entire family, right?

Yes, that's right.

I only told Borg's mom to bring the entire family, so we'll know.

Let's see if she comes alone or brings her husband.

I'm so excited to find out how tense things are in her family now.

- Ti Na, I love it here. - Isn't it so amazing? Let's go in.

The air is so fresh.

The air is incredibly fresh, and the water is so clean here.

Welcome to my cottage, everyone!

Ti Na, your cottage is really nice.

It looks like you invested a lot of money into this place.

I put a lot of work into it.

We, Elegance Mothers, haven't had a get-together like this...

for quite a while. Do you know how sad I've been about it?

Those of us, the original members, should gather more often...

Do it properly, will you?

Oh, dear. Goodness.

I thought I just heard that woman's voice.

Can't you hear me?

I just heard it too.

My gosh, you made it!

Is it normal to hear things when you hate someone so much?

I think it's really happening.

Welcome!

Gosh. Oh, my goodness!

- Mom, I'll play with my friends. - All right.

Does she think that this is her cottage or what?

Hey, Gwi Nam!

I came a little early to help out.

How did she even know where my cottage is?

Would you... Get out immediately. Right now!

Hold on.

Ti Na, I invited her.

Do Hye, this is wrong.

This is our tradition.

We need a change.

From all the confidential education-related information...

to the food and so on, do you know how much work...

I've put into preparing for this camp?

Do Hye, you're making the situation troublesome for us.

Who will be put in a troublesome situation? Me?

No way. It can't be you, of course.

Soo Ji, what do you think?

You agree with me, right?

I think I agree with you,

but then again, I'm not sure.

She's already here though. What can we do about it?

My gosh! You made it, Mr. Kwon!

Hello. Hello.

Mr. Kwon, you look troubled.

Is something bothering you?

No.

Well, it doesn't look like Borg's family is here yet.

It doesn't seem so.

Is Borg's family really falling apart or what?

Is that why they aren't here yet?

Could it be because of me?

There they are. She didn't bring her husband though.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hi, Borg. Your friends are playing over there. Go join them.

Okay. Guys!

What are you waiting for? Go ahead and ask her.

This is a family camp. It doesn't look like your husband came.

Why didn't he come?

Did something happen?

He keeps avoiding me and refusing to talk to me,

so Yool and I came without him.

I knew it. Their marriage must be in crisis.

I knew it. It's all my fault.

By the way, it doesn't look like your husbands are here either.

My gosh, I guess they're all busy.

It's actually good. I was worried that I might be lonely...

because I'm the only one who doesn't have a husband.

All right. It looks like everyone is here now,

so Elegance Mothers should gather for a little presentation.

Mr. Kwon, please take the kids out in nature.

And the other members can have...

free time, okay?

- Okay! - Okay.

All right, then. I'll go in first and finish setting everything up.

Follow me in.

Okay.

My Queen, don't you miss me?

I hate you.

I couldn't get a hold of you. Of course I miss you.

Then look up.

My gosh.

Gosh, why are you so startled? Goodness!

Borg's mom, what's going on? He came!

What is this? You and your husband came separately?

I'm Yool's...

I mean, Borg calls me Uncle. I'm a friend of his dad, Han Young Cheol.

I can join, right?

- Oh, no. My gosh. - Gosh, be careful.

Mr. Han.

You can't show up unannounced like this.

I guess we have to let you join us.

I'm sorry I showed up even though I wasn't invited.

My goodness.

See? I knew that guy would be here.

You're here. I didn't see anyone, so I thought you went to the camp too.

Why are you still here?

Borg Mom and Yool just left.

They left? Why didn't you go with them?

I heard that all families are gathering.

Whatever. I don't want to go.

I heard that all parents and teachers are going to that thing.

Is Yool the only one who won't have his dad there?

- The teacher is going? - Yes.

Then I'll go. I was going to go with you.

- Why are you going there? - What?

Well, I should go because I'm Yool's uncle.

It's actually good. I'll go on behalf of you and act like his dad.

Forget it. I'm Yool's dad. I'll go.

Gosh, I never said he's not Yool's dad.

Go Bong, wait up!

Why does he keep hovering around Borg Mom?

Why does he keep giving Borg's mom a hard time?

Let's go in.

I'll go find the kids.

You came, Go Bong.

I didn't think you'd come because you were sulking.

When did I sulk?

I'm here because of Yool.

Thank you.

Why are you thanking me?

I'm here for my son.

Hurry up, Borg's mom.

Go on.

Okay. I'll see you in a bit, then.

Borg's mom.

Do Hye.

- This is yours, Soo Ji. - Thank you.

You may sit in, but I can't let you partake in this.

I'll peek at hers, then.

I prepared a tutoring curriculum that's in tune...

with the latest trends in education for select few students.

I recruited top instructors for all disciplines.

Coding, the must-learn subject in the era of artificial intelligence,

and Latin, which will help students gain admission...

to Ivy League schools, have been added as well,

so please put a checkmark beside the class you want your kid to take.

Shouldn't we become trendsetters...

in terms of our kids' education too?

I'll participate in all of them.

Me too.

I'll choose all of them too.

I'm sorry.

These classes are for select few. We can only accept five kids.

It doesn't look like Borg's mom is interested.

I'm sure she is.

Borg's mom, will you do it?

No, I won't. You can take my spot.

Borg's mom, you can't do that.

Early education is immensely important.

Going overboard with it doesn't do kids any good.

You're clueless.

Moms who can't afford these classes...

can't get a chance like this even if they wanted to.

I don't want him to take these classes.

("100 Hours of Studying as an Infant Equals 10 Hours as a 3rd Grader")

The academic achievement earned by studying 100 hours in infancy...

can be accomplished by studying 10 hours in 3rd grade.

So there's no reason for early education.

According to a specialized institution,

the score of 207 students' creativity...

is 16.43.

One private tutoring class decreases...

the creativity score by 0.563.

For children's creativity,

they need a chance to be stimulated and experience new approaches...

through their personal relationships and surrounding environments.

Therefore, I don't want to force Yool to take private classes.

Gosh, really?

But still. There is a reason the other moms are giving...

private lessons to their children.

And if you don't take these classes,

one slimy fish...

is going to stir up the bottom and make the water dirty.

You mean to say one bad apple will spoil the whole bunch.

And I'm the bad apple?

Regardless, I would like to respectfully decline your offer.

If necessary, I will teach my son at home.

Ti Na.

Is it necessary?

To ask someone?

Is it necessary?

To ask someone who doesn't want to be involved?

Gwi Nam, take it.

Of course I will.

I'll take it no matter what.

Ti Na.

Do Hye, you're going to...

break the rules as you please like this?

I'm hungry.

Shall we have lunch after we change?

- Hello. - Hello.

I heard when we hug the eggs tightly like this, birds will hatch.

My gosh.

The baby bird has hatched.

Mine too.

Why is mine the only one not hatching?

I'll take it out for you.

Here. Are you happy now?

I break my lollipop just like this when I eat it.

I don't want it.

You can keep it!

I hate you as much as I hate carrots!

Carrots?

Those are yummy.

Audrey, you like me, don't you?

Are you Audrey?

Yes, who are you?

I'm Yool's uncle.

I see. You're Yool's uncle.

Audrey, you don't take after your mother at all.

I don't, right? I'm much better looking than my mom, aren't I?

My mom told me that I will look even more beautiful when I grow up.

I see.

Audrey, you will look more beautiful when you grow up.

You bet!

My mom told me that when I grow up,

the doctor is going to mold me to make me look even prettier.

Okay, sure.

I do believe that your mother met a great doctor too.

Where do the ants take the food...

after they gather it?

I read this from the story, "The Ants and the Grasshopper".

The ants are storing the food because they are going to eat it...

when they get hungry later. Isn't that true, Mr. Kwon?

It is.

Busy ants bring the food

The queen ant eats the food, so she can lay eggs

And that's how baby ants are born

I see. So the ants are only good to their mothers too.

Yes.

Yool.

- Dad. - Yes?

Dad, you're here.

Yes, I am. What have you been up to?

Were you looking at ants?

Yes. Just like I only love my mom,

the ants give food to the queen ant, and are only good to her.

Of course. They never get distracted.

They are only faithful to the queen ant.

That's right.

We're the only ones she has.

Let's love her even more.

So no one can come between our family.

Sure!

Seriously?

You didn't bring a comfortable pair of shoes?

I guess not. She only wears the same pair every day.

Yes, I only wear this pair.

Goodness. You're attached to such a useless thing.

There are a lot of comfortable pairs there. Choose one.

I feel uncomfortable just by looking at your shoes.

You do? Then...

(Battery remaining: 90 percent)

Since I have time, I will change into a more comfortable pair.

Do as you please.

I guess Borg's mom's shoes are very expensive.

She's treating them like they're gold.

Goodness. Where did William go?

William?

Come here. Have your meal. Come!

My maid is going to feed the kids.

You're hurting my ears.

Let's go to the barbecue spot.

The barbecue spot is that way.

Please follow me.

Hey, look, Gwi Nam! This is my cottage!

I'm the hostess of this camping, strictly for the members of...

For the members of Elegance Mother Committee including others.

I'm grateful many of you have joined me on this camping trip.

Shall we toast to commemorate...

this meaningful event?

I'd love to.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Excuse me, Soo Ji.

Why do you keep brushing and kicking my legs?

I guess your legs are very long.

That's right. I have long legs. I'm sorry.

I'm going to go to the restroom now.

I'll be back.

All right then.

My wallet!

Right. I left it in the car. I'll be back.

Okay.

You don't need to say it so loudly. Go on.

Have some.

I appreciate your kindness.

Borg Mom is on a diet these days.

Sorry?

He said I'm on a diet.

Should I get you salad without the dressing?

No, I'm fine.

You don't need to look after someone else's wife.

You should just help yourself.

Whatever. Do whatever you want to do.

Let's see how far you can get. Gosh.

Excuse me.

Mr. Choi,

aren't you uncomfortable about this arrangement?

Of course it is.

You don't need to try so hard. Just be yourself.

Marriage of convenience isn't something to be shameful nowadays.

Excuse me? Marriage of convenience?

Are you referring to our marriage?

I mean...

I understand that husbands might...

go to clubs, hotels, or meet other women...

in their line of work. That's all part of the work.

We are more open-minded than you think.

That's nonsense. I love my wife very much.

That is complete nonsense. How did such rumors spread?

What a shameless jerk.

Go Bong.

Gosh! That stung me. Goodness.

Go Bong, my body is...

Borg's mom, are you okay?

Gosh. Well, she had to go somewhere yesterday and hasn't been...

feeling well since.

Borg Mom, you should go in and get some rest.

Okay.

Borg Mom, are you okay?

No, I keep getting heated up more.

Gosh, you are really overheated.

Yes, I'm feeling hot.

Why is this happening? Do you have any analysis on it?

Exact reasons have not been determined yet.

My food processor is 90 percent full though.

What could be causing this?

We need to find the reason as soon as possible.

Let's go in and empty your food processor first, then.

Borg Mom, where did your shoes go?

Everyone said that they look too uncomfortable,

so I took them off temporarily.

I can last without them for 12 and a half hours, so it should be okay.

Be careful though, just in case. Okay?

- Okay. - Let's go.

How can their marriage not break down after him seeing those photos?

Spare me a second.

Sure, Do Hye.

I'm dizzy. Can't my body take alcohol today or what?

I should go take some medicine.

I have to excuse myself. I'll be right back.

I've never seen Do Hye talking that much.

What on earth is she saying?

Search her room if you have to. I need you to bring her tumbler.

Do Hye, give me a little more time.

There are so many people here. How can I just bring it to you now?

You came here for that one reason.

I'm aware.

Whether I'll continue to shield you or not...

will depend on how you handle this today.

Okay. Don't worry.

No matter what happens,

I'll be sure to find out what's in that tumbler today.

Who's there?

Is someone there?

Gosh, why is she so obsessed with that tumbler?

I don't even have to ask because it's so obvious.

She's dying to know because she thinks it's something good.

How childish.

Anyway, I almost got caught.

No one saw us, right?

We were so close to being caught.

My Queen, your lipstick got all smudged.

You can't let other people see it.

I'll erase the smudged parts for you.

- 2, 1. Go, shoot! - 2, 1. Go, shoot!

- Go! Keep it up! - Yes!

I won!

She's still in her room. What on earth is she doing in there?

I can't believe she's hanging out like that now.

Gwi Nam!

- Yes? - Let's talk.

Sure.

Is she really sick?

George?

I have to talk to Borg's dad about something.

You do?

What can I help you with?

George wants to speak with you about something.

I'd like to talk to you about something.

Can we talk later?

No, I want to talk to you now.

Shall we talk here?

Fine! All right.

Aren't you leaving?

I'd like to speak with Borg's mom.

About what?

Mr. Choi! Let's talk!

It looks like you should hurry.

Borg's mom, it's me.

- Has your fever gone down? - Yes.

It's much better now.

It's very strange.

What's strange?

Please come in for a second.

- Why are you being like this? - Please stay still.

Why are you doing this, Borg's mom?

The posture was exactly like this.

It's so odd, isn't it?

What's odd?

It's really strange.

I don't feel anything. My face isn't even getting heated up.

What's the matter, Mr. Kwon?

It's nothing!

The kids must be looking for me.

I should go.

What's wrong with me?

Do I have a crush on her?

No way. That can't be.

How many hours do you think you'll need?

All of these?

I thought we were even because I already assembled one for you.

No, we're not.

I'd like you to assemble all of these before I go to bed today.

- All of these? - You can't?

Then I'm going to tell everyone about your secret room.

Gosh, wait.

You're an impatient little man.

I never said I wouldn't do it for you.

All right.

I must check something with you before I assemble these for you.

About the secret room at my place...

You haven't told anyone about it, right?

Of course. My mom asked me about it,

but I didn't say a word.

Your mom asked you about it?

Yes, after she read my diary.

Why on earth did you write about it in your diary?

So? What did you say to her when she asked you?

I told her that it's a secret.

I said that I absolutely cannot tell her what's behind your closet...

because it's a secret.

Is that what you told your mom?

Yes.

Hurry up and assemble these for me, Mr. Choi.

We have a big problem now.

I think George's mom knows something about the secret room.

Don't do anything that may look suspicious.

We should go to the karaoke room and party like crazy.

Yes, let's do that.

Amor fati

Listen up. This is your last chance.

I'll give my all.

Lee Mi So, what kind of secret are you hiding from us?

Shall we get started?

Borg is gone!

Yool! Where are you?

- Oh, my gosh. - Where is Borg Mom?

Borg Mom!

Who are you, really?

(Borg Mom)
