I'll pay it back.

Did you leave your money here? Why do you keep bothering us?

If I were your parents and knew you were doing this,

I'd kick you out and never see you again.

Then lend me money!

This is all because you and uncle took father's compensation!

I wouldn't do this if you gave me a portion of the money.

I wouldn't betray my parents and beg humiliatingly like this.

Can I lend you the money?

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here!

Geum.

I'm sorry. That I overheard your conversation.

I didn't mean to. It wasn't intentional, but I'm still sorry.

So can I lend you money?

No strings attached.

Hey! You think I'm easy? Do you?

Do you think a spinster like me is so stupid that I would fall for you that easily?

Is that why you follow me around all day like a pervert?

A pervert?

It's not that -

Then? You have that much money?

Do you have so much you're giving it to me to show off?

Then give me the money.

Why just $4,000? Can't you give me $40,000?

I told you. That I wouldn't. That I didn't wanna marry.

And you still don't understand what I said?

Is that why you followed me and humiliated me?

Who do you think you are?

She's so mean.

Shouldn't she be happy at the suggestion?

Anyways, think about it and call me if you need my help!

'And do your parents know what you're doing?'

'If I were your parents and knew you were doing this,

I'd kick you out and never see you again.'

'What a good daughter.

He did nothing for you and you sacrifice 10 years taking care of him.'

You think my father's easy?

Why don't you pack and go live with him then?

Why are you still living here and mooching off my father?

Where have you been? He is fine.

It was a temporary seizure and he's fine now.

Thank you.

They said they'll remove the bed tomorrow morning.

He'll stay today but if you don't pay by tomorrow morning...

I see.

Why did you come to me? Why didn't you come sooner when I was young?

Why did you come when I was no longer curious about my birthparents?

The only thing you gave me was a pair of sneakers and sweats.

You were always drunk and got into that terrible accident in front of me.

Do you know that I still have nightmares about that day?

That I gave up on college and joined the track team to pay for your hospital bills?

Do you know? That it's been 10 years.

Hwang hates me and thinks I'm a hypocrite.

And I became an ingrate to my parents.

So frustrating.

Yun-Soon...

Yun-Soon...

What is this?

How is it possible?

You didn't remember me when you were awake.

How can you do this? What do you want from me?

What? Did you have a dream?

Yeah.

Geum fell and hit her head, and Hwang wouldn't go to school without new shoes.

They both cried uncontrollably.

It's nothing then.

I was so embarrassed. They cried so much I didn't know what to do.

Wake up.

Why did you sleep in the evening? You won't be able to later.

It doesn't mean anything, right?

Of course not.

Take this and wake up.

By the way, when did you come? Off work already?

Are you asking that now?

There's no other way.

Ki wouldn't have that much money.

My pride doesn't matter now.

Right? Just beg.

Mother, it's me. Don't prepare dinner.

I'm on the way home now.

Tae-Il wants to eat lasagna, so I'll make it.

Ok, Ok, mother.

Sis.

What are you doing here?

I just got here and was about to call you but you came.

Can we talk for a minute? It won't take long.

It shouldn't.

Go ahead.

Ok.

Thank you for not telling mom that day.

Did you come to say that?

No. So...

As you know the bills are piling up.

He went to ICU a little while ago so I need $4,000 by tomorrow.

Otherwise he will be kicked out.

Lend me some money, sis.

What?

I know I'm shameless. How dumbfounded you are.

But you're the only one I can think of.

I have no one else.

Help me just this once.

Why should I? It's your father.

Didn't you say you'd take care of him on your own? That I should butt out?

Sis.

You're amazing. How can you ask me that?

I knew you were shameless but not to this extent.

Do you think I didn't tell her for you?

I didn't tell because I didn't want to shock them.

How betrayed they must feel!

I know.

Then?

Because I have no choice. I don't. He's my birthfather.

How can I give him up and make him homeless?

Could you?

Yeah. I would. I wouldn't betray people like that.

Sis.

I told you. Why don't you pack and go live with him then?

Sis!

How long will your father burden my family?

Do you know how many times you pushed the hospital bills to father,

mother and Tae-Il in the last 10 years?

Every time you said it would be the last and you would give up.

Did you or not?

No. I didn't mean to deceive -

Whatever your intention was, the result is the same.

Do you know it's terrible selfishness?

You took advantage of my family saying you had no choice.

You justified yourself saying that you had no choice

and deceived my parents for the last 10 years.

Do you think only lovers cheat?

This is cheating, too. The lowest.

You don't have any sincerity towards others and have only infinite selfishness.

Go.

I can't lend you money because I don't have it.

But even if I did, I wouldn't.

I should have endured.

I'm begging for money. I should've persevered and kept begging.!

I should've held on!

Wake up. I don't have time.

You never know though.

[Your call has been transferred...]

[Your call has been transferred...]

[Can I lend you the money?]

I shouldn't have lashed out at him.

What about it? He said he would.

No, before that! Rewind.

Hello?

[This is Geum.]

Ok.

I'm wondering if your offer stands. Can you lend me money? $4,000.

Hello?

Of course. It's urgent, right?

I'll transfer it right now. Your account number?

Ok, it's Min-Kook bank. 999 -

999-467895. Name is Geum Lee.

I see. I'll transfer it in 10 minutes, so confirm it.

Ok. Thanks.

Let's meet tomorrow.

Ok, sure. Where?

Ok, good. I know the place.

See you tomorrow then. Ok.

I knew it.

Who is that? Sounded like a woman.

None of your business.

Hey! This is why I told you you're worse than an insect!

It's not here. It's after that! Do it again.

Hello.

Mom, I'm back!

Wow, smells good.

Hey.

You did salmon wraps, too?

Sweetheart. Do you have money?

Why, you need it? How much?

$4,000?

Yeah, I do. When do you need it by?

No, it's ok. I don't need it.

Why? If you need it -

No. It's fine. I'll ask again when I need it.

Ok. One more. It's really good.

Are you gonna fill yourself with this? Lasagna is better.

Kiss.

You're eating.

Hey, in the freezer -

Please consider time and place. You're not the only ones living here.

Ok, mom. Sorry.

Sorry, mother.

Father. I'm sorry about this morning.

I had a hard time finding this job and you kept forcing me.

I'll try to wake up earlier and won't be late from now on.

It's easier said than done.

I get it.

I'll wait and see.

Okay.

How is the lasagna?

It's better than I thought. It's good, isn't it?

No. It's so greasy, I can't swallow it.

Is it greasy? I'm pretty good at lasagna...

What's wrong? You like spaghetti.

Is this spaghetti? It's lasagna.

Didn't you say it was spaghetti?

No. This is a sort of pasta like spaghetti.

See? It's the same.

It's not! Is cabbage kimchi and radish kimchi the same?

This is lasagna. What we had at the alumni meeting is spaghetti.

Things like spaghetti and lasagna are pasta.

Know what you're eating and try to learn.

Don't you at least have to know what you're eating?

I got it. Eat. Lasagna.

Ma'am, come out. Someone came. It's about Tae-Young.

Wow, this time her house is so big and nice.

Are you her parents?

Yes, I'm her mom. Who are you?

I'm the wife of a man who she's dating.

What? What on earth...

Don't you understand Korean?

Your daughter is dating my sister's husband!

No way. There must be a misunderstanding.

There must. My daughter...

Tae-Young.

What's going on?

Tae-Young! Tae-Young!

Come here now! Tae-Young!

Go get her! Right now!

Ok, father!

Tae-Young! Stop there!

Don't follow me. Don't!

Let go of me. Let go! Let go!

Quiet. Is running gonna solve anything?

Let's go.

Let me go. He'll beat me to death. Please.

Then why do you keep causing trouble? Or at least keep it quiet.

It's been a little over a month since I moved in.

Do you know how many times I had to go get you?

Sis. I beg you. I didn't know he was married.

He said he's divorced and I found the truth only a few days ago.

I said I wanted to break up, but he's clinging to me.

It's true. I'm innocent.

That's good then. Go tell your father.

Go!

I'm gonna die!

It's better to get it over with. You'll die once anyway.

I'll die later. You have no idea how scary he can be.

If I go now, he'll shave my head...

Sis, please. Let me go...

Why are you crying? Someone might think I beat you.

I'm going insane. Why is it like this all day?

Alright, go.

Thank you. Thank you, sis.

Take this!

You have no money, right? I was in a hurry, so that's all I have.

Take it. Call mother later, ok?

Go now. You're a mess now, so take a taxi.

Thank you.

What's wrong with you?

Go already!

What a tiring day.

Soo-Kyung. Some guy asked me to marry him.

What? You were proposed to?

It's not a proposal. He asked me to marry him.

Stop joking.

It's different. Proposals are for people in love.

This guy wants to marry me out of jealousy.

We don't really know each other.

Then how do you know it's out of jealousy?

I think he got dumped by his girlfriend. He called her name while asleep.

Did you sleep with him?

No! He passed out after drinking, so I took him to a motel.

It's true! Don't look at me like that.

If you say so... so what does he do?

It's him. The program director.

Wow, you hit it big.

Did I?

You did. I heard he's tall and good looking.

But did you keep meeting him?

Didn't you say you were done after the drinking?

I know. He didn't even answer my questions and passed out that day.

And he asked me to marry the next day.

How low he must've thought of me. I was so mad.

So he said someone else's name, showed no interest but suddenly asked to marry?

So you're mad at how low he thought of you, but you don't wanna outright reject it

Yeah. Frankly I wasn't interested in the beginning.

But today he helped me out with something today.

Everything was taken care of nice and easily in an instant.

And it hit me.

'Life would be easy and comfortable with someone like him.'

Of course. You mom is right. Marriage is a good and stable living plan.

Then meet him. Wouldn't you know after meeting a few times?

It's awkward to say this, but this is art.

This is what they call glowing.

What are you doing?

Kegel exercise.

You repeat tightening and releasing the anal sphincter.

It's important to patients with colon and anal problems.

Tighten, release, tighten, release.

Yeah, I heard about it. The sphincter exercise? Is it called Kegel?

Yes. Do it. It's more important as you age.

Tighten your butt and tighten your sphincter and loosen...

Enough. Eat.

Try it.

Bro, come. It's so good, we started eating.

Aunt is here.

Yeah, Ki, come. Ox tails are awesome.

Wow, ox tails?

It's been a while. I was so nervous because it's so expensive.

You're overreacting. You're frugal but you're too stingy on food.

He gives you his monthly salary and Ki will become a doctor soon.

You can afford to spend some money on food.

What?

Take your nose out of it. I told you not to put your nose into the food!

I didn't! I just had one.

No way. I saw you picking up the second.

Goodness!

Don't argue over food.

Why did you come home late last night?

Why is the gate left open?

Hello, father.

What's up, father? This early.

Are you having breakfast? Sit. Eat.

Did you...?

We already ate. Eat. You gotta go work.

I came here to give this. We have to go.

I see. We'll eat then.

We had many loaches. Make a stew with this.

Wow, they're big. You came here to give this?

Where are you going?

Did you move in?

Me? No.

I thought you did because you're here every time I come.

Alright, eat.

Ok.

Only my mom understands me.

Long time no see. Have you been well?

Yes. You too?

Thanks for asking. When can we eat together again?

This is the first precious chance in a week and 2 days.

I'm asking if you won't stay out again.

You're not a teenager. How long are you gonna rebel like this?

I think I'll get married.

Will you meet girls? What happened? It's great that you changed your mind.

I don't care who it is if it's not Min-Sun. The sooner, the better.

I see. What matters is to marry a good girl and live happily.

Yes. I'll do it as soon as possible. Earlier than Min-Sun.

When is her wedding?

- A month later. - Kyung-Woo!

- What? - You don't know?

Is there a problem? Why take time when it's about the money?

Isn't it what you wanted?

Ok, got it. If that's what you want, let's try hard together.

I'll mobilize all my connections and resources to find the best bride.

You don't have to. I found someone.

What? How can you have found someone?

I do.

Why are you so surprised?

I'm not married. Nothing surprising about that.

Eat. I'll bring her home soon, so look forward to it.

Right. I shouldn't pass on this since an opportunity presented itself.

Let's meet and see.

I received the money. Thanks.

You're welcome.

I'll pay as soon as possible.

I don't care. Take your time.

Thanks.

But you have to go out with me.

Answer me now. I don't have time.

Just a week. If it's hopeless after a week, I'll let you go.

Ok. Fine.

You should do whatever I say for a week.

Ok.

You should've said that before.

I just wasted time. I'm busy already. Sheesh.

Get up. We have to go somewhere.

What?

Nothing. Let's go.

Are you determined to stay single or not to marry?

No.

Then do you have a unique sexual preference? Like loving women.

Don't worry. I like men.

Then do you have a chronic disease? Not like constipation or hemorrhoids.

No.

Then why did you reject me outright?

It's ok. It doesn't matter.

So you're not against marrying or anything, right?

Of course. Why would I be here if I were?

Good then.

You'll see what good marriage material I am from now on.

It'll be paradise every day if you're with me.

I look good, huh? Keep looking.

You gotta keep looking at beautiful creations.

But you don't have to be aghast. Shut it. Flies might go in.

Why here?

I wanna buy you clothes.

I know you work hard, but how can you wear sweats every single day?

I never saw you wearing anything else except the first day.

It's not clothes. It's your skin.

So you really wanna buy me clothes?

Yes. Don't decline. I do this because I need to.

I won't.

Don't look around. I don't trust your taste.

Help me with sizes. What size are you?

5-5.

Then wear this.

Here.

$1,800...

Did you see the price?

I did.

Did you miss a zero? It's well over $1,000.

I saw it correctly. Go change.

Are you really buying this for me?

You talk too much! Yes!

Ok!

How rich he must be to buy this so nonchalantly?

He wants to marry me but he still keeps his ex's picture in the car.

How can he spend more than my monthly salary?

I can buy a pair of sneakers for each one in my team with this money.

What?

Geum. You are so out of it.

You gotta match with your clothes perfectly.

You want that hair and that pose in these clothes?

First of all, loosen your hair.

Straighten up your back, too.

Shoulders. Straighten them.

And lastly, you're joking, right?

Hey. The one on the shelf.

No, the left one. Yeah, give me the heels.

Take off the socks and sneakers and wear this. Go.

Come on.

Back! Back!

Turn around.

How is it? You like it?

Well... it's ok.

You transformed.

Dress like this from now on. How good you look. Let's buy this.

I'll pay.

I did transform. Money is good, indeed.

Let's part here. I have an appointment.

What are you talking about? I made a reservation at the restaurant.

You promised to do as I say for a week!

It's a prior engagement.

From tomorrow. I'll clear my evenings from tomorrow on.

Alright. I'll give you a ride then.

No! It's nearby

Actually I have to go to the restroom.

I'm sorry. Go. Bye!

And... Thank you for the clothes.

I bought these here a moment ago. I'd like a refund.

Why, miss? You don't like them? Then exchange -

Just refund.

Hi.

Yeah.

Can I get 3 of this in 235, 6 in 240, 4 in 245, 2 in 250.

Give the soles as many in 235 and 250.

Alright.

Manager, how is Ki-Young Kim's book cover design going?

I think I still have time.

We have to decide on a design next week. Give me your proposal this week.

This week?

Why rush?

We have to decide next week.

You should've told me then if it was that tight.

I'm so busy with other proposals.

Hand in POP materials and newspaper advertisements by tomorrow morning.

The website was poorly managed, so please update it.

You even want me to manage the web site?

Jung-Chul can do that.

He's been here longer. Site management is the newcomer's job.

Manager. I can...

It's ok. Don't mind it. Do it by tomorrow.

I could do it.

Wake up! Do you know what time it is?

How can you get good results in the fall competition? Wake up!

We still have 10 minutes.

Repeat!

If you sleep, you dream, but if you're awake, you make them come true.

If you sleep, you dream -

Louder!

If you sleep, you dream, but if you're awake you make them come true.

Ok. Not only do dreams come true, but sometimes you get freebies.

Pick one of your size.

Coach. Isn't this High Kick?

They're very expensive!

I know our funding is reduced.

Don't worry. Some supporter donated sneakers for the Silk Road track team.

Are you happy?

Yes!

- I'll try them on. - So pretty.

Wake up and gather soon!

Yes!

Money is good indeed.

[Your call has been transferred...]

Why doesn't she answer the phone? Jeez...

Hello.

Hi.

How is it? No problems, right?

No. No side effects. I eat and run well.

Good.

Why didn't you bring your guardian though?

You didn't tell them yet?

Not yet.

I'm afraid my mom would pass out. She's easily shocked.

It might be hard at first,

but once she understands Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, she'll be fine.

Ok. I'll tell her soon.
