Original subtitles

There's a reason why I didn't introduce you to my mom.

I didn't want you to get humiliated.

Ji Eun.

We both know how this is going to end.

What do you mean?

We're not meant for each other.

I had forgotten that for a while.

But today, I remembered it again.

Let's break up.

Se Hoon.

Can you really live without me?

It's over between us.

I love you.

That's your misfortune.

Love is about belonging to one another.

And you need to give it your all.

But you can't do that.

That's why if you love me,

it will make you miserable.

(Here is something regarding your daughter, Lee Ji Eun.)

(Episode 5)

Where are you?

It's late. Why aren't you home yet?

I'll be home soon.

We all know that you're dating someone absurd.

Come home and apologize to your father.

You little brat.

I can't believe you lied to me!

How long were you going to keep it from me?

I'm sorry, Mom.

You ridiculous girl.

Promise me right now that you'll never meet him again.

Do you know how devastating it feels...

to have your child disappoint you?

Who is this guy?

Why are you clinging onto someone who won't even treat you properly?

Dad.

Dad.

I don't think...

I can let go of him.

Ji Eun! Ji Eun!

Ji Eun. Ji Eun, wake up.

Ji Eun. My goodness, honey.

Ji Eun. My goodness, Ji Eun.

My goodness, Ji Eun.

Love is about belonging to one another.

And you need to give it your all.

But you can't do that.

I must have hurt Se Hoon greatly.

I'm so sorry.

Up until now, I guess I only cared about myself.

There's a reason why I didn't introduce you to my mom.

I didn't want you to get humiliated.

I knew how my mom would react.

It's over between us.

Please don't do this.

I love you.

I'm sorry, Ji Eun.

I put myself...

before love.

My goodness.

When did your sister leave?

I don't know. She probably left for work.

Where are you going?

Me? I'm off to eat breakfast.

Do you seriously have an appetite in this kind of situation?

Then do you want me to starve?

Do you want me to starve to death?

How could you talk about death so easily in front of your mother?

I know you're still immature,

but how could you say that to me?

I'm sorry.

Mom, I may have given you a hard time with many things,

but I'll make sure to marry someone who meets your expectations.

I'll bring you a knight in shining armor.

My goodness.

Before you bring someone, I want you to go to college first.

Just get into any college in Seoul.

And please...

Wait a minute. Do you think...

she went to see him instead of going to work?

If she did, she's crazy.

But then again,

it's hard to fall in love without going crazy.

I saw the video, and I noticed that he's really handsome.

He might not have a nice background, but he's really good-looking.

My goodness. Just go downstairs and eat.

I become dizzy every time I talk with you.

- My goodness. - What is with you?

Mr. Kim, do you have a car ready for Mr. Chung?

Okay, I'll meet you there.

(International Arrivals)

Hello.

I'm Lee Ji Eun, a team manager at Bisang Apparel.

I'm sorry for putting you through the trouble.

We admit that it was a mistake on our end.

Like I told you before, we can't give you a refund.

I need to be somewhere. I'll see you next time.

And you can't solve anything by begging me for help.

I'm not going to beg.

Ms. Lee.

Let me offer you a solution...

that will benefit both of us.

When you do business,

it's better to change the situation than to make an impression, right?

So I'm not going to beg.

Instead, I'll help you settle a deal...

with Seorin Wool Textile.

Professionals don't get involved in a losing fight.

And they also don't pick a fight that will bring both sides down.

How will you help us settle a deal with Seorin Wool Textile?

Aren't you guys competitors?

I know someone there.

He'll help me out.

First, let's go to my office...

to discuss the details.

If you help us sign a contract with Seorin Wool Textile,

I promise to help you in return.

Thank you.

(Kim Ho Jin)

Why aren't you coming?

I need to go to a woodworking shop to get some materials...

before volunteering.

I need to leave now.

I'm trying my best to get there as fast as I can.

Where are you?

You know who I am, right?

Yes.

Were you aware of my daughter's background before you dated her?

Yes, I knew who she was before we dated.

Didn't her background make you feel uncomfortable?

Yes, it did.

Then you never should've dated her.

We've broken up.

I have nothing more to say to you.

I need to get going now.

This is regarding my daughter,

so I might say things that will hurt your feelings.

I came because of this...

even though it does seem like you guys have broken up.

Judging by the expression on your face,

I guess you weren't the one who sent it to us.

Let me make myself clear.

I never did such a thing.

At first, I thought it was you.

I thought you were trying to cling onto my daughter.

Please leave.

I'm not done talking.

It's very rude to interrupt...

when an adult is talking to you.

It's true that I dated Ji Eun.

So I'll be polite.

Go ahead and say what you have to say.

When you're raised in a good environment,

you learn how to be humble.

But when people are raised in hostile conditions,

they become arrogant.

Please get to the point.

I'll keep it short...

since we both seem to find each other uncomfortable.

If you didn't send that to us,

it might be from a woman who has a grudge against you.

Did you date someone else while you were seeing Ji Eun?

I don't care if you cheated on her or not.

But I'm going to find whoever sent this to us...

and make sure that person learns a lesson.

How dare anyone try to disgrace our family like this!

Make sure this never happens again.

You've said enough.

I don't think I can continue hearing this from you.

I'll do anything to protect my daughter.

Ji Eun is getting ready to marry someone...

who is on her level.

So don't expect to get what you don't deserve...

and don't cause trouble.

I also have something to ask of you.

We're no longer together, so please don't come back here again.

Hello.

I'm Judge Kim's eldest son.

Oh, hello. What brings you here?

Se Hoon and I are best friends.

Goodbye.

What an arrogant jerk.

He doesn't even have anything, yet...

I want you to find out who owns this building.

I'm going to buy it right now.

Let's go to the office.

Can't you make it today?

Okay. Have fun tutoring.

Se Hoon?

Don't even ask.

He's obviously really upset. She said a lot of horrible things.

Forget it. Let's just hang up.

Just hang up.

Should I drive?

Why?

Because I can tell that my friend isn't feeling very well.

I'd rather focus on driving.

Let's go. We're late.

Bok Ja can't make it today.

Are you okay?

I should try to be okay even if I'm not.

I heard everything.

You forgot to hang up the phone.

Why would you eavesdrop on something like that?

I didn't mean to eavesdrop.

I was so dumbfounded by her that I couldn't stop listening.

You did a great job of holding your anger.

She's Ji Eun's mother. I couldn't get angry at her.

I would've thrown a fit if I could do things my way.

Hey.

This is a secret. Don't tell anyone.

My mom really hates Ji Eun's mother because she acts...

all elegant on the outside but talks behind people's backs.

- Tell me more. - You want to know more? Wait.

There's this gathering that my mom goes to,

and everyone there hates Ji Eun's mother.

Do you know why? Because she's really annoying.

Wait. I have more.

Let's see. What else was there?

Don't try to force yourself.

Let me be honest with you.

You deserve better than Ji Eun.

Plus, she was the one who kept clinging onto you.

I'm a living witness.

Who cares who clings onto whom?

It's over between us.

Se Hoon.

You scare me sometimes.

You grew up too quickly.

You suppress your feelings too much.

I can't change anything by being emotional.

Who cares about changing anything when they're emotional?

If you're angry and upset, you should yell and shout.

Otherwise, it'll eat you up.

Let's just skip the volunteer work and drink soju today.

Stop using this as an excuse.

We should keep the promise we made.

Is it really over between you and Ji Eun?

I decided to let go. I don't expect things to work out.

It's over now, so I'm not going to look back.

I felt like you should know.

Your mother was the one who went there,

but she obviously went there because of you.

Where is Se Hoon right now?

Today's the day we do volunteer work,

so he's probably there with Ho Jin.

I couldn't go because of my part-time job.

Where is that place?

I need to meet him right now.

I need to apologize.

Ji Eun, I really think you should stop.

I know things will get awkward between the four of us...

now that you've broken up, but...

It's not over! This isn't the end!

It's not over between me and Se Hoon!

I'm sorry for yelling at you.

It's okay.

Let's go and sit down for now.

Have a seat.

I know you're sorry for hurting Se Hoon,

but the fundamental problem comes from your family.

What are you going to do now?

Even if you ask him to get back together,

Se Hoon won't change his mind now that his pride has been hurt.

And you and I both know how your family will react.

I'm going to look for a way...

to change Se Hoon's mind.

I don't care about my family.

You make it sound like you're going to run away from home.

If I must, I will.

Where did he go to do volunteer work?

Bok Ja, I know...

that Se Hoon didn't break up with me because he wanted to.

He only did it because he felt like he had to.

Are you sure about this?

What if your family kicks you out?

Will you still be okay with Se Hoon by your side?

The Ji Eun I know can't live...

without her money and background.

You have a point.

But here's what Se Hoon told me.

He told me that love is about belonging to one another...

and that I need to give it my all.

And he told me I'll become miserable...

if I continue to love him because I can't do that.

But you see, Bok Ja,

living without Se Hoon...

is what makes me miserable.

I love him a lot.

Although he has...

absolutely no idea how much I love him.

Stop crying, you brat.

My gosh, you're unbelievable. I bet you're the craziest brat...

that has gone crazy over love this year.

Tell me where he is.

I'll send you the address.

Send it to me right away. I'll call you later.

Okay.

Why did you go there?

What did you say to him?

I said what needed to be said.

Did that punk tell you already?

He's the guy whom your daughter is in love with.

Don't call him a punk.

You didn't need to add onto it.

I had already hurt him.

I love him.

But I couldn't even introduce him to you.

I already made him feel miserable.

Do you only feel bad for him?

Don't you feel sorry for lying to your parents?

Get to your senses. I will never approve of him.

- Why not? - Must I tell you why?

He's not on our level.

What level?

Do you think we're a royal family or something?

Lower your voice.

Let me go! I need to go to him.

You're totally crazy about that punk.

Stop calling him a punk!

What's going on?

You're at work.

Junior Managing Director Jo, take her away.

Ji Eun, calm down.

Let's go talk in my office.

People are staring.

Uncle, you can try to stop me, but I won't listen.

Are you trying to ruin your life?

You and Dad ruined my life a long time ago.

I wanted to go to art school,

but I couldn't because you guys didn't let me.

And I didn't want to study abroad all by myself,

but I had to go to boarding school as soon as I turned 13.

I'm done sacrificing my life for you guys.

I'm going to get back with Se Hoon.

- Says who? - I'll do what I want.

If you try to stop me, I might really lose it.

Is she really my daughter?

She's very strong-willed.

That's all you have to say?

She's just like someone I know.

No, you were worse.

When Dad disapproved of Sang Bum,

you even took pills to try to kill yourself.

I don't even remember any of that.

"Love"? Once time passes by,

it all becomes meaningless.

What are you talking about?

A life without love...

is like a steamed bun with no filling.

I'm starting to crave steamed buns.

My goodness, I heard some people never grow up.

My goodness.

Don't mess with a beehive.

If you try to stop her, she'll only love him even more.

(Habitat for Humanity)

(Furniture Studio Echo)

(Habitat for Humanity)

Let's go.

I need to cut this wood, so don't take it anywhere.

Okay.

Na Kyung is supposed to come today.

Why isn't she here yet?

She wants to marry her boyfriend.

Are you going to keep showing interest in her?

She told us they're about to break up.

If you want to hit on her, do it after she breaks up for good.

That's why I tried to keep things cool...

and told her we should be friends.

She's still seeing someone. Don't cause any trouble.

Didn't you hear what she told us that night?

Her boyfriend keeps being really vague.

That means he isn't going to marry her.

Men only get married...

when they feel desperate to be with that woman.

Exactly.

You're not even interested in getting married.

Why are you so obsessed about hitting on her?

Why do you keep connecting dating with marriage?

You're so old-fashioned.

I'm not old-fashioned.

I just like keeping things classical.

Sure. Whatever.

The gimbap is here.

- Let's eat. - Okay.

(Habitat for Humanity)

Who are you?

(Here is something regarding your daughter, Lee Ji Eun.)

I want you to leave this in front of my front door.

It's natural for me to work for people who pay me more.

But I do feel a bit bad about doing this to Ms. Han.

There's no need to feel bad.

The video was meant for Seo Jung In,

but Ms. Han will still get...

what she wanted even if he doesn't watch it.

(Here is something regarding your daughter, Lee Ji Eun.)

We had to meet one day.

So I'm glad to see you here.

I helped you make up your mind.

Isn't that a good thing?

You were one step ahead of me.

I never planned on sending that video to your family.

I just wanted Jung In to know...

that you were also seeing someone else.

If I tell him what you did, I think he might...

lose interest in you.

You were probably going to send it anonymously.

But now that I've found out, things won't go as planned.

What do you want?

Don't you owe me an apology?

There are rules even when you fight.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have...

put a tail on you.

You need to do more than just apologize.

I want you...

to convince Director Seo...

to purchase fabric from this company in China.

You need to do this much...

in order to call it even.

A guy who doesn't mind marrying someone he doesn't love...

isn't normal.

I'm telling you this with sincerity.

Se Hoon, it's your turn to lose to me.

(Phoenix 2020)

I don't care if Na Kyung is dating the guy...

you're about to marry.

- I came to talk about us. - I have nothing to say to you.

It's over between us.

We promised to do our best to overcome...

all the hardships that come our way.

I want to end it while I'm still in love with you.

I guess you really meant it when you asked me to break up.

I came because I was worried about you.

- Let go of her. - Mr. Jang.

Is it okay if I take her from you?
