EPISODE 25

Gosh, you scared me.

Why are you sleeping here?

Wait, did I snore?

You even snore?

Do you know how many times I nearly fell off the bed?

I can't even share a bed with Jae-in because we push each other.

Don't even dream of sleeping over here again.

-I'm going to sleep here if I want to. -No. No way. You absolutely can't.

End of discussion.

Then let's do this.

-Here. -What are you doing?

-Hey, what is this? What are you doing? -Stay put.

Like this.

We can hold each other tight and go to sleep so that I can't even budge.

Okay, let's go back to sleep.

Gosh, seriously?

-Oh, no. -Hold onto me.

That hurt.

-Are you okay? -Yes.

Actually, no. I'm not okay.

I told you to come early and help me make dumplings, not just to eat.

Maybe I should just live with Dad.

Hey, where's Jeong-in?

She didn't come home last night.

-Hi, Seo-in. -Hi.

Where did she sleep?

At Yeong-ju's place.

Call Yeong-ju.

Mom.

It's just...

My daughter didn't come home last night. Can't I even ask?

Hey, that should be good enough.

Are you upset with me because I slept at Ji-ho's place?

You seem upset.

Gi-seok is on his way here.

I lied to him that I'm not feeling well,

but he insisted, saying it won't take long.

Why is he so bullheaded?

I'm sorry. I'll take care of it.

Will you go wait for him outside, advertising that you slept with Ji-ho?

I can do that.

A guy, who he used to look down on, took away what had belonged to him.

I'm sure he's livid.

-Am I an object or what? -Do you think this is about love?

He wants you back only because you were his.

Do you know what really worries me?

Whether Gi-seok's strategy is lame or not,

what if it works in the end?

I do believe in you.

But most people won't approve of your relationship.

Is Ji-ho dangerous or something?

He'd be the perfect target for gossip.

And in others' eyes, you're just someone who cheated

on her decent boyfriend.

Even if people talk shit about me,

I won't regret meeting Ji-ho.

Hey.

Yeong-ju won't be meeting with you.

And I'll tell my parents about Ji-ho.

Come again?

Isn't that what you want?

You're trying to suffocate me by meeting people around me one by one.

Your strategy is working. It's driving me nuts.

I'd rather just tell everyone and get it over with.

This is driving me up the wall.

My patience is wearing thin as well.

If you stop here,

I'll just put it behind us, okay?

Don't act as if you suddenly realized that you were so in love.

You just can't accept the fact that I'm dumping you.

Be honest, please.

Yes, you are right about that.

There are so many reasons I can't help but do this.

Do whatever you want. I'll do the same.

Did you get yelled at by Yeong-ju?

She didn't have all the ingredients.

I'm calling it quits.

I wanted to be like you, but I just can't do it.

I can't take this anymore.

What's the matter?

I'm so pissed off.

I held myself back because of you.

Why must I be patient? Did we commit a crime or what?

I'll tell them everything. He can't keep doing this.

Who do you mean by "he"?

Gi-seok?

Would telling your parents change anything?

No.

But still...

It'll only make things more difficult for you. He won't change.

Hi, Mom.

I just called to check in. I hung up because I had to do something.

I slept at Yeong-ju's place.

No, I didn't drink.

No, we just hung out.

I'm serious.

She'd never call me for no reason.

Are you sure she's at Yeong-ju's place?

You can go there and find out.

Why are you all annoyed?

I have my fair share of stress.

Because you got nothing to do?

Has Jeong-in really told you nothing about that guy?

I met him once.

You met him?

Is their relationship already serious enough for her to introduce him to you?

No, I ran into them by chance. We just said hello, and that was it.

I heard he's a pharmacist who's her age. That's what you told me.

Yes. That's all you know about him as well, right?

Right.

He has some sort of flaw, right?

Jeong-in will tell you about it.

So, he does have a flaw.

It's her relationship, so you should hear it directly from her.

Just give her some time.

Should I prepare myself mentally?

It's very hard to get this.

-I've only heard about this. -You work for the country.

I'll work around your schedule.

Yes, anytime is good for me.

Let's do that. Okay.

That was Assemblyman Jang. He pesters me to meet up constantly.

I heard his youngest daughter is a professor now.

I bet he wants to brag about it.

He already told me about that.

His daughter is around the same age as my son.

He wants to set her up with him?

Need I say more? Obviously, that's what he wants.

That's great. This is like a pre-celebration, then.

Take us all out for a fancy dinner.

Is that why you didn't invite Mr. Lee today?

You're right. Mr. Lee isn't here. You guys didn't call him?

I assumed you'd bring him along.

Wouldn't it upset him if I call and invite him now?

You guys should've thought of this. This puts me in an awkward position.

Gosh, he'll get the wrong idea.

What should I do now?

I shouldn't have left it up to you all. It's all my fault.

I called him too late.

My apologies. I'll clear up the misunderstanding.

Mr. Park, you're always so organized and thorough. Why today of all days...

Gosh, you totally let me down.

Unbelievable.

I only came back because at least I shouldn't stress you out as your wife.

What has Seo-in decided to do?

What kind of question is that? She already made up her mind to divorce him.

You couldn't even

talk her out of it when you stayed with her for days?

Think about why she made such a decision despite being pregnant.

As her parents, we should respect her decision.

About Jeong-in...

What about her?

Jeong-in said there's a guy she likes.

Tell her I'd meet him.

Why all of a sudden?

What about Gi-seok, who you're absolutely fond of?

You said we, as parents, should respect our children's opinion.

YU JI-HO

KWON GI-SEOK

WOORI PHARMACY

Gi-seok.

What brings you by?

Is Ji-ho not home?

I have to talk to him about something, but I can't get a hold of him.

-You're here too. -He's not here now.

Where did he go?

We don't know. Yeong-jae and I stopped by,

but he wasn't home when we got here. We're just eating some fried chicken now.

-Come in and join us. -No, it's all right.

All right, then. I'll see you guys around.

-Bye. -Bye.

Why did you invite him in?

Because I was baffled.

By what?

What baffled you so much?

Talk to Ji-ho about what?

-He obviously came looking for Jeong-in. -No way.

Why else would he come here?

He must be so embarrassed right now because we saw him here.

You think so?

Why did Jeong-in accept the ring to begin with?

Gi-seok seems to think that she accepted his marriage proposal.

Give me a break.

He proposed to her fully knowing that she wouldn't accept it.

This is more than just being clingy. I'd say it's an obsession.

If we look at it positively,

it could also mean that he loves Jeong-in that much.

If that's love,

having a crush on someone would count as a dating experience.

By that logic, you've dated about 15 girls.

That's right.

I already had lunch.

I can have lunch at home. Are you having a busy day?

Why would you ask when I'm already here?

What's up? Do you need something?

Well...

It's about the guy you mentioned.

Your dad wants to meet him.

Why?

I was surprised too.

He said he wants to respect your opinion.

Did he...

hear something from Gi-seok?

No, it didn't seem to be the case.

Hear about what though?

Seo-in and Jae-in

hinted at me that I should mentally prepare myself.

Let's hear it now.

What is it? Why are you scaring me like this?

Whatever it is, I'm prepared to handle it. Just tell me.

Actually...

He...

He has a kid.

Who?

The guy I'm seeing.

Mom.

I'm sorry.

Mom.

You see,

Jeong-in.

-This is-- -I tried not to fall for him.

I, too,

thought it was wrong,

but...

I like him so much.

I like him a lot, Mom.

I'm sorry.

Well...

This isn't about you apologizing.

Gosh, this is...

I don't even know what to say.

I can't be without him, Mom.

I can't live without him.

My goodness.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Mom.

But...

help me, please.

Gosh, Jeong-in...

What should we do?

Mom...

My gosh...

Jeong-in.

What should we do about this situation?

I'm sorry.

You should get back to work.

I'll call you.

Mom, wait.

I have a favor to ask.

Why do you keep crying?

I'd like you to meet Ji-ho.

He's a good person.

I'm sure.

You must've fallen for him because he's a good person.

But...

why should I meet him?

Are you thinking...

Hye-jeong.

Why are you calling me so fondly?

I need to step out.

Why? Did something happen to Eun-u?

No.

I don't want to be blamed if your relationship doesn't work out.

I'll be quick.

Don't bother coming back.

Just be the first one to arrive tomorrow.

If you want coffee, you can have this.

No problem.

You don't want coffee?

I'm all right. I have to finish a report quickly.

Hey, actually...

Does Ji-ho know that I came by his place?

Yes, I told him you wanted to talk to him about something.

I had to talk to him about something.

Yes, that's what I told him.

-Right, you said that. -Yes.

-Don't you have to finish a report? -Oh, right.

Shit.

God damn it.

What the hell.

Damn it.

Jeez...

-Where are you coming from? -I had to go to the admin office.

By the way--

I'm sorry about last weekend.

My wife and I had to go somewhere,

so I couldn't attend the get-together.

Is that right? I wondered why you didn't come.

If it happens again, I'll make sure I let you know beforehand.

-All right. -Have a nice day.

PRINCIPAL LEE TAE-HAK

Yes, sir.

I'm just calling to see if you'd be up for grabbing dinner

since you couldn't join us on the weekend.

I'm sorry. I have plans this evening.

Really? Then shall we grab dinner tomorrow?

No, it's all right. It's my fault that I couldn't attend the get-together.

-It would only make me feel more guilty. -Oh, please.

Anyway, all right. Let's find another time, then.

Sure.

-I won't keep you from your work. -Okay.

Do you think I'm a pushover?

-Hello. -Yes, hello.

What brings you by?

I'm here to see Jeong-in. I can't get a hold of her.

Oh, really? Hold on.

What is she up to now?

Hey, Ha-rin. Is Jeong-in in the office?

No, she isn't. By the way, did something happen to Jeong-in?

Why do you ask?

She was crying earlier.

Where is she now?

-In the viewing room. -It's on B1.

-I see. Thank you. See you around. -See you.

Who is he?

Is he that guy?

-Who else would it be? -I see.

Hey, what's going on with Jeong-in?

Who knows?

I'd walk around with a huge smile on my face if I had a boyfriend like that.

What are you doing here?

I just broke into tears while talking to my mom.

You didn't have to ditch work to come here.

Hye-jeong will speak ill of me.

She let me leave, saying I may blame her if things go wrong between us.

It's nice to cry sometimes.

I get to see you at this hour.

You have to be stronger.

I'm not crying because I got scolded.

I just...

For some strange reason...

Why can't I cry?

Yes, you can. But the thing is,

I don't want you to cry alone

especially when I'm not around.

But you're here now.

Okay, cry. Cry all you want.

My mom...

left without giving me her answer.

I always tell you

that everything will be okay

and that we can take it slow...

because there's this faith, which only you and I know of.

The "Us" you always talk about?

Yes, us.

By the way, what is this place?

Where people kiss secretly.

EPISODE 26 WILL AIR SHORTLY

What else?

His parents run a dry cleaner's. That's all I heard.

What about you?

EPISODE 26

There's no need to hide anything now.

I'm not hiding anything.

We just said hello. That's all.

He seemed like a nice guy. He was polite as well.

I can't believe this.

I've never even imagined that I'd be in this situation.

What about Seo-in?

She has a point.

So what are you going to do, Mom?

I have no idea.

I can't even help you sort out your situation.

With Jeong-in's situation, I feel even more clueless.

Mom, Jeong-in wants to show you that you don't need to worry.

She wants you to know that she's dating a decent guy

and that you don't need to sigh nonstop like this.

I've never seen her with those eyes before.

I think she's thinking of marrying him.

Already?

You should meet him.

I'm sure you don't want any regrets.

You said you'll regret for the rest of your life that you didn't dissuade me

from marrying him hard enough.

So don't be like that to Jeong-in.

Mom, are you going to be against it?

I don't know who this is, but he's in deep trouble.

Even just a slap in the face can get you in serious trouble.

Even if it's sex between a married couple, it can be prosecuted

if coercion or threats were involved.

Even at our law firm, we get many inquiries regarding marital rape.

Hey, but they're married.

It doesn't work that way.

Legally, it's considered violation of self-determination.

By the way, who's this guy?

Oh, my friend asked me to look into it for his acquaintance.

By the sound of it, I don't think he's a nice guy.

Don't befriend him.

Let's play one more round and go for drinks.

-Sure. -All right.

Hey, then...

If it's considered assault, will he lose his parental rights as well?

-In the case of child abuse... -Yes.

By any chance, is this what you're going through now?

Gosh, what are you talking about? Of course not.

-Right? -Yes.

You kept asking about it, so I was curious.

Even if this is your case, don't ask me to represent you.

There's no way he'll win the case. He'll lose.

-I have to make a quick phone call. -Okay.

What should we order?

What are you up for?

You eat more, so the choice is yours.

I'll order a lot then.

Let's see...

I'll park the car. You head up first.

Isn't this enough confirmation?

It's like I said.

I'm not you.

This much I can take.

You can date Jeong-in again...

after we break up.

Hey.

I'm telling you this because

it's your least pathetic and realistic option.

She'll open the window soon.

You think I'm scared?

I am.

I worry about her finding out the truth of

the man she once dated.

Stop acting so high and mighty

and ask Jeong-in to come down.

Try taking her if you can.

Is that a challenge?

Show some respect first and then talk.

All right, fine. Do whatever you want. I'll let you.

You can meet my family, my friends, and those around me.

Call me anytime and anywhere.

Ask me to meet up and visit me.

I'll put up with anything.

What are you doing?

So bug me all you want.

I'll think that I'm paying for hurting you,

so until you're done,

I won't resent you in any way.

Do whatever you want until you get bored.

-Go inside, Jeong-in. -But don't bother Ji-ho.

If you do, I'll do anything to stop you.

I don't care who I have to go after.

It took you half a day to open this door.

What the hell took you so long?

-It's been a while. -Oh, hi.

We'll talk later.

Seo-in, follow me.

We'll talk in here.

You seriously asked Jae-in to stay here?

Don't act naive.

I know you saw this coming.

I said there won't be a divorce.

Leave if that's all you have to say.

Give up my paternal rights?

You're telling me to stop being a human being.

You proved yourself as an animal when you kicked me.

It's in the past and I already apologized.

And that makes it go away?

Just have your lawyer ready.

What will you tell our baby then?

Will you tell I don't exist?

Why when you're perfectly alive?

I'll say you're in prison.

Jae-in, it's nothing.

What was that? Were you about to hit her?

Has he been hitting you?

-Jae-in-- -Seo-in!

Come on. Let's talk outside.

Who the hell are you?

Who are you to hit my sister?

-Jae-in-- -Who are you to hit her?

Who the fuck are you?

-Jae-in, that's enough-- -Let go.

Hit me too. Go on.

-Jae-in, come on. -Why aren't you hitting me?

Hit me!

You piece of shit!

You come with me. Now!

Jae-in...

-Please stop. -Let go. Get out of the way!

I'm going to kill him.

Get back here!

Let go of me!

Are you kidding me right now?

You acted like your life was put together,

but this is how it's been?

Just look at yourself!

I'm sorry, Jae-in.

Seo-in...

I thought you were too mad to see me.

Are you here to vent again?

If I do, will you hear me out?

Are you worried that I'll start up music again?

Forget about a music career.

I'm worried you'll do something even worse.

Those few photos showed a dynamic story.

It's nothing.

He's an alumnus of the college I graduated.

Then you know him?

He's a few years my junior.

I introduced the two and now they're friends.

There's nothing more to it.

You are one understanding friend.

What job will you offer Jeong-in's dad after his retirement?

Get him a good one while you're at it.

Why? Aren't you competent enough to get the girl by yourself?

Who cares about a shoddy deal when it gets you what you want?

It's your specialty, isn't it?

You admitted it too after meeting her.

Right.

Well, she's not an easy fish to catch.

I'm willing to go this far because it's her.

Just so you know, I don't lag behind other men that are out there.

It's why I can't let this go.

I can't become a pathetic loser.

Do you think that I led a dirty life?

You hated that I was like Mom, right?

Well, I'll live like you from now on.

Give her dad a decent position,

and I'll do the rest.

Don't break up with Ji-ho.

Enjoy a long and happy life with the man you love.

You should grab some lunch first.

My classes are in the afternoon, so I have time.

I hope you pass this time.

It might just encourage Ye-seul.

I'm thinking about studying for the test too.

Anyway, I wish you luck.

Right, we should...

I'm not here for supplements.

Pride isn't a luxury you can afford right now.

-We'll get going. -Enjoy your lunch.

Sure thing.

Seriously. I'm just here to talk.

Then talk. What was that about telling me to run?

That was just a joke.

Because Jae-in is seriously rooting for you guys.

It doesn't seem like one. Tell her I'll consider it.

As if. Run away? You?

You're too decent for that.

I'll try the bad boy thing.

SUYEONG FOUNDATION ORGANIZATION CHART

CHIEF DIRECTOR KWON YEONG-GUK

There. Lean back.

-Is that comfortable? -Yes.

-Have fun with your dad. -And Ms. Lee.

What? Oh, yes. Of course.

Don't let him eat anything too cold.

I packed some barley tea.

This isn't my first time, so what's with all the fuss?

She must want to come with.

Eun-u, let's get going.

We won't be late.

If he gets fussy, head back and--

He'll be heading out tomorrow at this rate. Get yourself going.

-We'll get going then. -Bye.

Eun-u, have a good time.

-Eun-u! -Have fun.

-Have a safe trip. -Sure.

-Be careful out there. -Sure.

Maybe we should've told him to leave Eun-u.

She's the one who wanted Eun-u to come.

She's just saying that.

What if she gets annoyed that he's there?

Words can become reality if you keep saying it, so stop thinking so negatively.

Hi, Eun-u!

Hey, you didn't forget. Thanks.

Why aren't you saying hi?

Hi.

Are you upset about something?

Of course not. You should put on your seat belt.

Eun-u, it seems like your dad's sulking for no reason.

That's stupid.

You'll burn a hole in my face.

"You'll burn a hole in my face."

I'm already worried about today.

It's okay to be a bit late for weddings.

I've left the house.

All right. I'll see you soon.

One, two, three!

Eun-u!

All right. Eun-u, wait for us.

Eun-u.

Okay, good.

Let's go.

Good job.

Do you think Eun-u will remember this day?

He will. I'm sure of it.

Eun-u.

Here you go.

Change the photo you have by your bed to this one.

My first attempt failed.

-Dad. -Yes?

Ms. Lee asked if I'd like her

as my mom.

So...

-what did you say? -"Yes."

Good job. That's a good answer.

Can you stay here for a while?

I'm not one with high self-esteem.

I'm not embarrassed about being rejected once.

Jeong-in.

You know I'm quite mean,

and I toss and turn in bed.

What else?

Are you...

really...

coming to us?

Yes.

I can't wait until I have gray hair.

Just so you know, I'm going to be a tough wife.

I already know that.

The door is opening.

First floor.

Going up.

You should give him a call this time.

He said he'll be heading back after dinner.

Then what's taking him so long?

Eun-u's with his dad, so why are you worried?

Well, she's with them too.

It's nice that she's spending more time with Eun-u.

Will she marry him?

If she does,

I couldn't be any happier.

You don't even know what she's like.

I wonder if she'll come here later.

Maybe I'll ask her to come inside.

Wouldn't it be too sudden?

You're just as curious, aren't you?

Of course, I am.

He's never been this close with anyone before.

It's why I'm more worried.

What if he gives her his heart only to have it broken again?

How will we stitch it back up?

Eun-u will be affected this time too.

Do you know why I was fussy this morning?

It's because of that reason.

Do you not know anything about this?

Of course, I don't. How would I know?

Damn it.

No, let me.

-Get her over here immediately. -Sure.

She had better show up!

I didn't offer to drive because of Eun-u.

Would I even be tired? I doubt I'll even sleep at night.

I'm the one who won't be sleeping.

My first proposal was rejected, remember?

I told you I got the gist of it.

Whatever. I'd still be single if it weren't for Eun-u.

I'm proud of you, son.

-Yes? -Your dad found out.

You should run away.

If it wasn't Gi-seok, who could've done such a thing?

Gi-seok's father.

I need to talk to your father. It's best if you're there too, so be there.

I took it without any meaning.

-I should've returned it earlier. -What's so great about him?

I don't need anything else. Just come back to me.

-Bring him home. -No.

But you said you'll marry him.

I know you're planning to

humiliate him and drive him away.

You don't have to date Gi-seok.

I'll give up the job at the foundation after I retire.

I can't give him up.

Please tell Seo-in to persuade Jeong-in for me.

I'll make it worth your while. I sincerely mean it.

I know I don't say it, but I'm worried too.

I'm even terrified at times.

I'm scared she'll show up and demand Eun-u back.

Yu-mi's married.
