(Episode 81)

I want to marry Da Hee. Please approve us, Mother, Father.

Yes, please, Mom, Dad.

Here. Let this numb the pain.

Hold on. Why are you smirking like you find this entertaining?

It really hurts. I got smacked right on point.

It's throbbing like crazy.

Okay, fine. Let me help.

Why must you always be like a baby?

Yes, Ga Hee.

Na Hee, where are you?

What? Right now? I'm outside, of course.

Things just blew up at home. A nuclear bomb went off...

No, a hydrogen bomb is more like it.

What are you talking about? What's this about a bomb?

Don't be alarmed, okay?

Your former brother-in-law.

Gyu Jin's brother, Yoon Jae Seok.

He wants to marry Da Hee.

He's here trying to persuade Mom and Dad.

What? Marriage?

Since when? When did this all begin?

- Well, that's... - Hold on.

It hasn't been long.

We began to date after she got into college.

I'm the one who liked her first. I asked her out first as well.

She was against it at first saying that it was absurd,

but I persuaded her.

But Dad, Mom,

I couldn't help how I felt.

I just liked him too much.

He's such a great guy.

Actually, he's the reason why I got into college.

He helped me study math at the library,

drove me to the university on the day of the exam,

and encouraged me whenever I doubted myself.

Also, Cha Young Hoon, that jerk...

I mean, when he tried to get back with me,

Jae Seok's the one who punched him in the face.

- What? - Unbelievable.

Right. Of course I know how flustered you are.

I barged in here unannounced, so of course you're shocked.

But this was the only way we could muster up the courage.

I came here ready to have a few ribs busted,

so please approve of our marriage.

Approve what?

Do you really think that this makes sense?

There's our history with your family to consider,

and she only went back to college two months ago.

So what do you mean you'll get married?

I'm aware of that too.

That's why I'll support Da Hee.

So that she lives out her dream,

I'll do my best as her biggest supporter, Mother.

Stop calling me Mother. I'm not your anything.

How about Mother-in-law then?

I apologize.

Stop. I get everything you're saying, okay?

So at least go home for now.

I doubt you expected us to approve of this marriage tonight anyway.

Right now, we're too flustered to think straight.

We need time to think...

What's there to think? This is more than absurd!

Honey, please.

Ga Hee!

Where's Da Hee and Jae Seok?

They're in there.

I'll be back some other time then.

Sure. Good night.

Bye. See you next time.

Get in here.

Da Hee.

What on earth? Are you kidding me?

Marriage?

Things just happened.

Jae Seok proposed, you see.

At first, the idea seemed absurd,

but Jae Seok couldn't be more serious,

and I also feel like he's someone I can trust.

So you two barged in here like bulldozers...

seeking approval?

Da Hee!

Are you out of your mind?

How can you date him when you're aware of Na Hee's situation?

Is he the only man in this world?

What about your studies? Didn't you want a new life?

You said you were done with marriage.

But Mom,

I think I can do it all with Jae Seok by my side.

I can study hard and build my career.

What?

Read this, Mom.

This is how he plans to support me.

He'll support me so that I can finish my studies.

He envisions a long future with me...

and cares for me a great deal.

Get this away from me!

You like him too much that you only see his good qualities.

That's not the case, Mom.

No, I know I'm right.

It's true that Yun Jeong did me a huge favor recently,

and I am trying to be good friends with her again.

But she's not someone you want as a mother-in-law.

She is overly obsessive when it comes to her sons.

You know how much she annoyed your sister.

But if I do my best...

Da Hee!

You doing your best can't solve her issues.

- It just won't! - Ok Boon, please.

Stop it. Use your words instead.

Young Suk, let me go. Let go of me!

Then be rational and use your words, okay?

You!

Gyu Jin?

Seriously? You're unbelievable.

Do you even consider me to be your brother?

Get over here, you traitor.

Traitor? There's no need to call me names.

Are you kidding me?

Anyway, we'll talk back at home.

- Gyu Jin... - Come on.

- Gyu Jin! - Come on.

Get in here.

It hurts. Can you at least let go?

- Sit. - But...

Can't you at least be gentler?

You're not in a position to ask me that.

How could you do this to me? How could you?

This is a betrayal.

How can you go there without discussing things first?

You call that an alliance?

I was going to discuss it with you, but you left...

after Na Hee texted you.

I wouldn't have if I knew.

You should've told me that this is what you were planning.

Okay, fine. I'm sorry for not discussing things.

But I didn't know it would happen today.

Still,

I achieved nothing anyway, so let's drop it for now.

I already have the worst headache.

Why would you be distraught?

I'm the one who has it worse.

If only I could just cut your leg off.

Who are you to be annoyed? That's how I should feel!

Mom, you won't believe what happened today!

That man walked in with Aunt Da Hee...

and got down on his knees in front of Grandma and Grandpa.

Then...

he asked for them to approve his marriage to Aunt Da Hee.

Talk about being manly and charismatic!

It was like watching a scene from a movie.

What is she talking about? Who does she mean?

- Da Hee? - Yes.

Yes, the whole house was a big colossal mess today.

Do you know who the guy is though?

It's Gyu Jin's younger brother.

My gosh.

The one who's a dentist?

Seo Young, can you help Seo Jin wash her hands?

Okay, we'll let the grown-ups talk.

Seo Jin, let's go.

Tell me more.

Are you saying that they've been dating all this time?

Yes. Can you believe our youngest sister?

She's actually the craziest out of us all.

You can never tell what she'll do next.

How can she even think about marrying Na Hee's former in-law?

That's insane.

Your mom and dad must've been shocked.

Na Hee too.

Of course.

Na Hee hasn't said anything, but I'm sure she's in shock too.

Working together with your ex-husband is one thing,

but being in-laws is another.

Okay, fine. Let's say that they end up getting married.

Those that are invited to the wedding...

will practically be the same as last time.

Even thinking about it embarrasses me.

"Goodness, we meet again."

"We met when your other daughter married her other son."

"Yes, hello again."

"We should hope these two don't get a divorce."

That's how it'll be.

What about the guy? Is he serious about this?

Of course.

Why else would he have come behind enemy lines?

From an objective standpoint, he seems like one...

to take more initiative compared to Gyu Jin.

Or maybe he's just crazier.

So how's Da Hee at the moment?

Isn't it obvious? I bet she's laid out flat on her bed...

after getting smacked by mom in the back five times.

Like I said, she's crazy.

No, I'm alone right now.

Na Hee gave me an earful,

and Mom smacked my back about four...

No, five times.

Now, I'm under my covers in bed.

What about you? Gyu Jin must've thrown a fit.

You could say that I was smacked too.

He pulled me by the ears, chocked me,

and kicked me here and there.

That must've hurt.

Are you all right?

Isn't this too hard for you?

Actually, pulling the trigger...

gave me a new batch of courage.

Really?

Gosh.

You sure are reliable, Da Hee.

- In that case... - Yes?

While we're bulging with all this courage,

let's get on with the other notification.

The other notification?

- Are you saying... - Yes, that's what I'm saying.

She'll know soon anyway,

so it'll be better coming from us.

Ms. Choi.

Yes?

My gosh. What's wrong with me?

Goodness gracious. I ruined all these flowers.

Sweeties,

why didn't you tell me that your necks were hurting?

What am I going to do?

Oh, dear.

Jae Seok! My gosh, Da Hee.

What brings you by this morning? Did you meet out front?

Yes.

Hello, Ms. Choi.

I didn't sleep well last night,

so I've been lacking the energy and feeling down today.

But then you both came by which just made my day.

Have you had breakfast?

Somewhat, yes.

I haven't eaten yet.

Really? That's great!

Why don't we go upstairs and have breakfast together?

I didn't have an appetite, so I skipped it this morning.

Come on. Let's go.

Sure.

Let's go.

Right.

Not being able to sleep at night has been making me lose my appetite.

I thought porridge would help. Da Hee, do you eat abalone porridge?

Oh my.

I don't know why I keep bumping into these corners.

How many times does this make?

Darn, that hurts.

Why aren't you joining me here?

Mom, can you have a seat out here? There's something I need to say.

Save it for later.

Da Hee should eat and be on her way.

No, Mom. This involves us both.

What?

What do you mean...

this involves you both? What is it about?

Mom, can you sit down first and take a deep breath in?

Why? What is it?

What did you just say?

Who's getting married?

Me and Da Hee.

I want to get married, so please approve.

So the student you've been dating.

The one who ruined your blind date...

Yes, that was me.

I'm sorry that we lied.

We had no choice back then though.

Mom, at first, I asked Da Hee to pretend...

to be my girlfriend...

so that I could fend off the woman you set me up with.

But I ended up falling for her.

This is crazy. How...

How can you do this to me, Da Hee?

You played dumb in front of me,

and I poured my heart out to you.

Don't you know how much I trusted you?

Was it funny to see me go crazy?

Was it hilarious to make fun of me?

No, Ms. Choi.

I felt bad too. It wasn't easy for me either.

That's why I was against us dating too,

but I couldn't help it.

I just liked Jae Seok too much, so...

Enough!

I don't want to hear it. I've had enough, so get out.

Leave. Get out of here!

- Mom... - Ms. Choi...

I'm done with you too!

I don't care how small the world is. But your brother's ex-sister-in-law?

How can you be this careless? How?

- Get out of here, the both of you. - Ms. Choi...

- Mom, please. - Ms. Choi...

- Get out! - Mom!

- I'm so sorry. - Out!

- Get out! - Mom...

Stop sighing like that. It won't do you any good.

How can I not sigh at the moment?

How is it that our kids don't let us live in peace and quiet?

Just when I thought that all the drama was past us.

That brat.

We can't let it happen, right?

Of course not.

It's not just us. You know how Yun Jeong is.

She'll be appalled if she finds out.

Hold on.

(Yun Jeong)

Yes, it's me.

Where are you right now?

I'm on my way to work.

Don't you think we should talk?

I'm against this marriage.

Me too. I'm right there with you.

Right? Of course, you are. How can this even make sense?

I'd understand if your daughters...

and my sons were the only people left on Earth.

Why did it have to be them of all people?

Exactly. I agree with you fully.

I'm on board with us comforting each other as friends...

as we keep growing older,

but why must we be in-laws again?

Forget about it. That's the last thing I want.

Of course, it's bad. I'm glad you feel the same way.

Yes, I'm glad we're on the same page.

You have no idea how aghast I was...

when they came by earlier to deliver the news.

That idiot. I know he can be clueless at times,

but why would he marry someone like her...

What?

What did you just say?

Are you saying that liking Da Hee makes him clueless?

No, that's not what I meant.

Then what did you mean?

If I'm being honest,

it's not about Da Hee still being a student.

Have you forgotten that I was a guest at Da Hee's wedding?

Most people around her know that she was married.

They didn't even register the marriage nor go on a honeymoon.

They just broke off their engagement.

They had the wedding ceremony anyway.

People would still think it's her flaw.

What? Flaw?

Did you just say a flaw?

Well... It may sound too harsh,

but honestly, I can't say it's not a flaw.

Gosh, you're unbelievable.

How could you say such a thing to your friend's daughter?

What? A flaw?

All right. Let's say it's a flaw.

What about your children then?

You said this about your second son the other day.

He has itchy feet, so he rarely stays at home.

You know what? I don't want such a punk for my daughter.

End of conversation.

What? A punk?

How could you say that?

I can say things even worse than that.

I just had to swallow an insult!

My gosh. I can't believe this.

Hey, it's me who find it hard to believe.

Anyway, there's no way we will become in-laws again.

Just sleep with no worries because I will.

Do you understand?

- I'll get going then. - Not a chance.

I'll never give Jae Seok to you!

I won't give my daughter either!

- You don't deserve my son. - That's it.

My son is a doctor!

How dare you?

She got married before.

So is Ok Boon at Yun Jeong's now?

Yes. She got a call from her on her way here.

I guess she heard it as well.

I have a bad feeling about it.

When it comes to her children, she loses her reason.

I thought they were finally getting along well, but it's back on.

I know. I don't think they would say anything nice.

I think I should get going then.

I have the feeling.

Gosh, that darn wench.

That stupid mean wench.

Hi, Ok Boon.

I'm busy, so I should get going. Bye.

What's wrong? What did Yun Jeong say this time?

She says Da Hee has a flaw.

She didn't register the marriage, but she had the wedding ceremony.

So Da Hee doesn't deserve her son.

I'm not happy with her son either.

It's not going to happen. No way.

It's all settled then.

She doesn't like our child, and we don't like hers.

We don't even need to talk about it.

But they are not listening to us. What are we going to do with them?

You should've given them a flat "no"...

- and kicked them out yesterday. - Wait.

Why is it my fault now?

I'm just furious.

Why did Da Hee fall for her son of all people...

and make me hear something upsetting like that?

Ok Boon. I still don't think you can take it out on Young Dal.

Just breathe in the bag.

Get it away from me.

You should keep your temper in check.

To me, you're no different...

than Ms. Choi. Just stop it.

My goodness. How dare you compare me to her?

I can't believe this.

- Hello, Mr. Song. - Hello.

You're here, Young Dal.

I was just passing by, and I was a little thirsty.

So I wanted to get some water.

I don't think that's what it is. You seem upset.

We should go to the supermarket.

- We'll see you later. - Okay. Bye.

See you.

What's wrong?

Did you have a fight with Ok Boon?

Young Suk, why do you think Ok Boon is being so stubborn?

She wasn't like that before, but now she yells at me all the time.

She's not the only one who's flustered.

I'm just as upset as she is now.

It's just that she's getting old.

Women tend to become stubborn after menopause.

And they become very moody.

I bet you yelled at her more than she did when you were younger.

I guess you're right.

She put up with me.

Now you should put up with her.

It's about time.

It's only fair this way.

You should eat.

You haven't eaten anything since morning.

It's not like we didn't expect things to go like this.

I know. I'm eating.

You should buck up to fight against them.

I'm really sad when you're being like this.

Don't be. I'm eating now.

I'm really fine.

Look at me.

(Mom)

Hello, Mom.

Where are you now? Come home right away.

Home?

- Why? - Don't even ask.

Just come home immediately.

What is it?

Mom wants me to come home.

She sounded really upset. What do I do?

It's all right.

It will be okay.

Da Hee is out.

I'm sure she's with Jae Seok.

Jae Seok wasn't home when I woke up in the morning.

He's become an early bird since he started dating Da Hee.

What did Jae Seok say? Did you talk to him?

He just asks me for help.

He's so reckless. It's him who started the whole thing.

He asked her to marry him and live together.

Jae Seok isn't a kind of guy who worries about the future.

He just goes for it.

You're right. Sometimes I'm a little envious.

I don't know. It's so complicated.

I think maybe we should support them though.

I know.

It upsets me to see her being so depressed.

Just come on in. Who said you could go out and cause trouble again?

You're not welcomed there.

I'll call you back later.

Mom, why are you home so early? What about the store?

That's not the problem.

You.

Did you go to Yun Jeong's with him?

What did you tell her?

Did you ask...

her permission to marry her son?

No, it's not like that.

Did you go to Mother's already?

You guys have an incredible drive. You're unbelievable.

What's the matter? Did you meet Ms. Choi?

What did she say to you?

What do you think?

She said there's no way she will let her son marry you.

She can't accept you as her daughter-in-law...

because you broke off your engagement, and said it's your flaw.

She said there's no way.

Seriously?

She's unbelievable.

Until recently, she just treated you like her best friend.

How could she say such a thing about her friend's daughter?

Is it okay to say things like that when she loves her son?

We already know she's always like that.

When it comes to her children, she doesn't care about friends.

What do you think?

Are you happy to hear things like that?

Do you think that's what you deserve?

That's ridiculous, Mom. Why would she be happy?

I just have to say ridiculous things to cool down my anger!

I just started to feel at ease...

after your breakup and your divorce.

I just started to overcome the aftereffects.

You guys never put my mind at ease.

Do you really want to see me burst with anger?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Mom.

What? How could you do that when you're sorry?

- Gosh, Mom. - Will you break up with him?

Are you going to break up with him?

Gosh, I'm so upset.

He's making me worry now.

Where on earth is he after causing all the trouble?

Is it you?

Where is Jae Seok? Isn't he home yet?

Not yet. Why? What's the matter?

What? "What's the matter?"

You knew about it, right?

You knew Jae Seok and Da Hee were dating.

Gosh, it's finally happening.

Did you know about it or not?

Well... I just found out.

And? Why did you not stop them?

Do you think it makes sense?

She's your ex-sister-in-law.

Jae Seok wants to marry your ex's sister.

Are you really okay with that?

I know what you mean,

but what can I do about it? They like each other.

- There's nothing I can do. - What?

How could you say that as his older brother?

You should have stopped them no matter what!

Gyu Jin.

Mom, when did you get here?

I came here to make things clear.

There's no way you'll marry their youngest daughter.

Why not? You liked Da Hee.

You told me to date someone like her.

And you promised not to go back on that.

That was when I didn't know you were dating.

It's different if she's your girlfriend.

How is it different?

Just look at the person and don't think about anything else.

How can I not?

It's not like I'm hiring a part-timer. How can I not care?

I told you.

I will pick out the woman for you to marry.

Mom. Am I a child?

I should pick my spouse. Why should you?

Will you live with her? No. I'll live with her.

Be quiet! I can't hear you,

so don't say anything else and just give up!

I told you clearly!

- Wait, Mom... - Forget it!

- Take care. - My gosh.

Oh, dear.

- Are you home, Dad? - Yes.

Sit and eat.

Did you have dinner?

I ate a bit. Where's your mom?

We ordered Chinese because she said she wasn't hungry.

Where's Da Hee?

In her room. She's not hungry either.

Even if they're not hungry, give them something to eat.

Why are they both starving?

My gosh.

Why are you skipping dinner and even lying down?

Gosh. Don't talk to me.

Out of my husband and kids,

no one knows how I feel.

Don't be like that. Get up and eat this.

Why did you bring corn on the cob?

You like corn.

I bought them for you because I thought you'd have no appetite.

They weren't leftovers.

Yes. I know you're upset.

If you want to vent, vent at me.

I'll take it all.

But don't you skip any meals.

You can't fight the kids if you're weak.

You eat that.

Da Hee, have some of this. I heated some pumpkin porridge...

Where'd she go? She was here earlier.

She said there's no way she will let her son marry you.

She can't accept you as her daughter-in-law...

because you broke off your engagement, and said it's your flaw.

She said there's no way.

(Jae Soon)

The receiver is not answering.

Why won't she pick up?

She can't be asleep already.

Gyu Jin. Can you call Na Hee...

and ask what Da Hee's doing? She won't answer her phone.

Really? Hang on.

It's me.

Hey. Is Da Hee there with you?

Jae Seok says he can't reach her.

She's not home.

I thought she was in her room,

but she must've gone out.

Isn't she with Jae Seok?

Give me a minute.

She's not at home.

Na Hee thought she's with you.

The receiver is not answering. Please leave...

Where are you, Da Hee?

The only person who was on my side is dead,

and my sons say they'll do as they want as if they have no mom.

My gosh.

Is this my fate?

I feel lonely, abandoned, and bitter.

I might die in solitude.

I can't even get drunk today.

Who knows?

Maybe I can get drunk if I mix in a little soju.

Who's that so late at night?

Ms. Choi.

Da Hee. What are you doing here?

Ms. Choi.

What's going on? What are you doing?

Ms. Choi.

Can you...

please accept me?

You liked me.

You were nice to me.

I really think...

I can't live without Jae Seok.

I like you a lot too.

I think we can get along and have fun.

So...

is that still a no?

Am I really not good enough?

Even if I plead like this?

No?

Can I plead with you, Da Hee?

It's true. I liked you.

That's why I don't want to be so cruel.

But not my Jae Seok.

You know I have high hopes for my sons.

I want Jae Seok to marry someone almost too good for him.

So please...

Can you give up, Da Hee?

I'll try hard, Ms. Choi.

I'll be good to you. I'll become a great person.

No, don't say that.

Da Hee, do this for me. I beg of you.

Ms. Choi.

- Ms. Choi. - Please.

Please.

Hey. Did you not find her?

No.

She's still not answering?

No.

She's not the kind of person to ignore her phone.

It's mine.

Na Hee.

Is your brother at home?

He hasn't been able to reach her yet?

Okay, bye.

His brother's at home? She's really not with him?

My brother-in-law just got back from looking for Da Hee.

He's not your brother-in-law anymore, so keep things straight.

Why are you venting on Na Hee?

She's still used to using that phrase.

Be quiet.

She's just putting on a show.

"You try worrying all night."

"You'd rather give in than see your daughter suffer."

She's retaliating to try to make us give in.

Na Hee, are you sure Jae Seok is at home?

Did Gyu Jin not make an excuse?

No, I heard Jae Seok's voice over the phone.

Whatever. I'll just go to bed.

I won't bat an eyelid even if she sleeps out tonight.

She must be with a friend.

My goodness.

I might die before your mom does.

Na Hee, try calling Da Hee again.

She has classes tomorrow, so she must come home.

Let me call her.

She might not take your call thinking you're a spy.

(Ga Hee)

(Episode 82)

Gosh, my head is killing me.

What on earth is this?

Da Hee?

I see you're awake, Ms. Choi.

What are you doing here? Did you perhaps stay the night?

Yes.

I was shocked to wake up at your house too.

I was going to leave...

before you woke up,

but I figured you'd be too hungover to cook yourself anything.

Why do you care whether I eat or not?

If you don't have an appetite, at least eat it later on.

Make sure you reheat the soup.

Ms. Choi.

Is...

Is there no chance of you accepting me?

Ever?

I'm sorry.

But you...

have too many flaws.

All right.

I'm sorry for troubling you.

Goodbye.

Da Hee, do you eat abalone porridge?

I don't know why I keep bumping into these corners.

Unbelievable!

Why is she doing this to me?

Da Hee!

What happened?

Ga Hee...

Where did you sleep, and why weren't you answering your phone?

Mom, Dad, Da Hee's home.

She didn't stay out all night on purpose.

Just like I thought, she passed out after drinking with a friend.

Remember her best friend Jung Hwa from high school?

You should've at least called!

Didn't you know that we'd be worried?

Is this the best you can do?

I'm sorry, Dad,

Mom.

You really are a piece of work, you know that?

Now you're even staying out all night.

Unbelievable.

Da Hee, you should shower and get to school.

You have a class to get to. Hurry along.

Ga Hee, make sure she eats breakfast before she leaves.

You saw how gaunt she seemed.

Got it. I will, Dad.

- Have a good day then. - Sure.

(Jae Soon)

So? No one knows where Da Hee is?

That's how it was when I left for work this morning.

Just like Mom said,

she could've stayed out all night on purpose.

I can't tell since this has never happened before.

Da Hee hasn't called yet, has she?

I'm worried sick.

Where could she be...

Da Hee!

What's up with you? Where are you right now?

I'm sorry.

I made you worry, didn't I?

Anyway, I'm back home now.

I didn't get any sleep last night.

Where on earth were you?

At Ms. Choi's.

Where?

At your mom's place...

with Ms. Choi.

You were at my mom's?

Mom's?

Why? How did that happen?

I don't know. It just happened.

When do you get off work today?

We should meet up.

Of course.

I'll come to you after work.

Sure. Do well in class today.

She slept at Mom's place?

She slept at Mother's?

That's what she said.

What on earth is going on?

- Are you off to train? - Yes, at the dojo.

Ji Hun's going to meet me there...

- after school. - I see.

Are you coming back from the post office?

Yes, I have so many orders now that I have to go there once a day.

I might end up falling for the clerk there at this rate.

See you later then.

Hyo Sin.

I was hoping we could chat.

If I'm being honest,

it's true...

that I like you.

I had no idea I'd fall for someone younger than me.

Younger guys have never been my type,

but you're so mature that it kind of happened.

But?

But...

More so than my own emotions and needs,

my son comes first.

I'm aware of that.

So what I'm saying is that...

I was hoping you could give me some more time.

I was going to, you know.

Didn't I tell you that I'm not expecting...

anything to change?

Again!

You managed to flip me once though.

I call that big improvement.

You let me flip you over.

I'm aware of that.

That's not true.

Your body has gotten used to the sport now,

so make sure you keep working every day.

I'll be at the dojo every day as well.

We'll meet up around this hour tomorrow.

Great. I'll be here.

My gosh. Da Hee!

How long are you going to keep me waiting?

Hurry on over.

What you did is worth hearing an earful from me.

You should've at least told me that you were going to see my mom.

What happened? Why did you end up staying the night there?

Why don't we sit down?

What's wrong, Da Hee?

You're scaring me with this serious attitude.

Why? Did my mom say nasty things to you?

What is it?

Why are you crying?

Jae Seok.

We...

We...

I'm afraid we'll have to break up.

What are you saying?

Break up?

Your mom won't ever accept me.

I lack in too many ways...

to be your wife.

She doesn't want a daughter-in-law...

who's flawed.

So you're breaking up with me over what my mom said?

You know how my mom is.

She's like that with me and Gyu Jin too.

She pokes holes in our hearts and says nasty things.

We told our parents knowing that this would happen.

We agreed to handle anything that comes our way.

No, it's not because of what she said.

She...

She cried.

She held my hands and pleaded with me...

in tears.

I can't go through with this while bringing tears to her eyes.

I just can't.

We can't be this selfish.

We can't just consider how we feel about each other...

when she's your mom.

I'm really sorry.

I...

I'm really sorry...

for giving up...

too early.

I can't break up with you though.

So let's go back to how things were.

We won't get married...

and keep dating.

You'll keep studying, and I'll do my job well.

That's not an option for us anymore.

No.

No, Da Hee.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

I got too greedy.

We don't have to get married, okay?

Just don't say that it's over between us.

Please?

Gosh, it's so pretty. You look amazing in it.

Why are you here again unannounced?

Mom,

how could you?

How many more nasty things must you say?

I finally understand how Gyu Jin felt.

I get how upset he must've been...

to hear and see you treat Na Hee the way you did.

When did you become such an awful woman?

That's enough! How dare you talk like that to your mother.

Da Hee wants to break up with me.

She ended our relationship in tears.

She can't keep seeing me...

knowing that it'll bring you tears.

But Mom,

I won't break up with her.

If I were going to, I wouldn't have told you in the first place.

I'm going to fight this...

and marry Da Hee in the end. That's why I told you.

But...

if you keep disapproving...

and make us end our relationship,

I'm going to leave.

I won't ever come back to Korea.

Are you kidding me? You won't come back to Korea?

Is that a threat?

No, it's not a threat.

I'm saying I can't live here without her anymore.

That's how much...

Da Hee means to me now.

Mom,

forget about everything else.

Don't think of her family and whatever flaws you think she has.

You don't need all that.

Can't you just see...

the person, Song Da Hee?

Please.

Mom.

Mom, I still need to talk to you.

I'm home.

You're home.

What does that mean? You spent the night at Mother's?

Da Hee, what's wrong?

Da Hee.

Hey, you're home early.

What did Da Hee say?

She spent the night at Mom's...

Hey, what's with your eyes? Did you cry?

Hey, Jae Seok.

What's going on?

Try this, Ms. Choi.

This is crazy.

You are just like this lilac.

You're young and beautiful.

You are a lot more beautiful than I am.

You're dignified and graceful.

I don't know how you feel,

but I really liked working with you.

Ms. Choi, please don't drink too much wine.

And you should never skip a meal even when you're upset.

Is...

Is there no chance of you accepting me?

Ever?

(Neulpuleun Children's Hospital)

(Da Shik)

Hello. It's me.

Mom?

Tell Da Hee to come over for dinner this weekend.

So Da Hee is serious about this.

It's not just that she's serious.

She cried all night and went to school with puffy eyes.

I bet something happened at Mom's.

Should I go ask Mom?

You should.

I feel bad that she left with her cheeks sunken in.

- Hey, can't you knock? - Gyu Jin.

Gyu Jin. Na Hee, you're here.

Sorry, hang on.

I'll knock next time. That's not important.

I just got a call from Mom.

She told me to come over for dinner with Da Hee this weekend.

What does that mean?

- Really? Mom said that? - Yes.

Is it a positive signal?

If it's not the green light, it can be at least the yellow light.

Well... I think so.

Otherwise, why would she tell you to come over for dinner?

Congratulations. You've just crossed a big mountain.

I shouldn't be excited.

I don't want to pop the champagne too soon and ruin everything.

Jae Seok, stay calm. All right.

I should tell Da Hee though. I'll see you later.

Gyu Jin and Na Hee.

Once it works out for us, I'll try my best to support you guys.

I'll be sure to return the favor. You trust us, right?

Bye.

It's surprising.

She wants to have dinner with them? I mean, dinner?

Hello.

Is the morning class over? Where are you now?

I just got out of the classroom.

Da Hee! Da Hee!

What are you doing here?

The lunch break is almost over.

I just couldn't wait until the evening.

Mom wants you to come over for dinner this weekend.

- What? - She wants to have dinner with us.

With me?

What does that mean?

Don't you get it?

Mom gave her consent.

We got her permission.

So...

So we don't have to break up now?

Is it that we can still see each other?

Is that it?

Sure.

Why would we break up?

We will live happily ever after.

Jae Seok.

Jae Seok!

I love you.

I love you so much, Da Hee.

They say there's no parent who can get their own way, and it's true.

Gosh, I shouldn't have said to Ok Boon that Da Hee is flawed.

She totally lost her temper.

What?

Are you at the store now?

Are you getting off work late tonight?

No.

We are out of chicken, so I was going to close the store. Why?

That's good.

Let's meet up. I have something to tell you.

Something to tell me?

I don't know. What's there to talk about?

Let's talk in person. Where do you want to meet?

We can't talk in my cafe when there are customers.

Do you know the new bakery near the post office?

Let's meet there in 30 minutes.

Okay. I'll see you then.

She acted like she'd never see me again. What does she want now?

What's there to talk about?

Are you done cleaning up?

Let's go home.

You go on ahead. I should go meet Yun Jeong.

Ms. Choi?

Why? Is it about Da Hee?

I don't know. There's nothing to say.

She's so self-centered.

Dr. Song. Aren't you getting off?

I'm leaving now.

What do you want to eat for dinner?

Well... Anything.

I think the dishes tasted different, right?

Did they get a new chef?

It's out of our list now.

Do you want some ice cream for dessert?

No. Let's just go home. I'm tired.

Why?

You're in a bad mood.

What is it?

What's bothering you?

- Did I look like that? - Sure. It was obvious.

What's the matter?

Why? Is it about my mom?

Yes.

I'm happy for them,

but I can't help but compare myself to them.

Mother and I were...

family for years and yet, I never broke through that wall.

Da Hee did that in a short period.

I thought it was mostly your mother's fault...

that she and I felt uncomfortable.

But I guess I was wrong.

I was hugely responsible too.

Why...

Why would you compare yourself with Da Hee?

You're different people with different personalities.

But still.

What if I'd opened up a little more and tried harder?

Your mother...

is actually quite easy to get along with.

I didn't try to put in any effort.

Don't say that.

I'm the one who's mostly responsible for that mess.

That's why I'm so sorry.

Now you are?

Yes, now I am.

Come here.

I feel a little less sad now.

Now that you're hugging me.

I can't believe I even bought a bribe.

My son is my own enemy.

Oh? Isn't that Gyu Jin's car?

My gosh.

You... You two...

My gosh.

What on earth is this?

Oh, my.

Mom.

Mom, wait. Hang on.

Let me explain.

What's this about?

What did I just see?

Calm down. I'll explain. Come with me.

It's not true, is it? It's not.

You tell me. It's not happening, is it?

My gosh. This is impossible.

Are you crazy?

Did you cause all that fuss and get divorced to do this?

You were in the news, and you shamed your parents.

Was that all for fun?

Why did you get divorced if you're going to date again?

What did you just say?

Mother.

Mom...

Who's dating again?

Are you two actually...

Are you seeing each other again? Are you?

Gosh.

(Once Again)

That brat Na Hee is seeing Gyu Jin again.

How can things get this twisted?

I don't like it.

If you'll do as you wish, I'll disown you.

Not her. Never, not even over my dead body!

Why do you not like Dad?

Why do you like Hyo Sin?

They say kids choose their parents before they leave the heavens.

Parents are so grateful that they were chosen,

that they give in to their kids many times.

Fight for a little while, then give in.

Mother.
