All language subtitles for Its Beautiful Now.E37

Come in.

I'll let you talk.

You're...

Hyun Jae's father was adopted.

- Dad, take your seat.
- Right.

Shall we?

Maybe it's because
my daughter's around your age.

I couldn't just simply walk past you.

Do you have a daughter?

Jung Eun.

Jung Eun.

I'm your father.

Your name is Jung Eun.

Lee Jung Eun.

Why are you leaving? Don't go.

You lived so happily.

I had no idea.

I imagined all sorts of things
on the way here.

I'm sorry.

It's enough that I know.

Now I know who my father is.

Jung Eun!

Jung Eun!

Min Ho. I think she's mad at me.

What do I do?
What am I supposed to do now?

(It's Beautiful Now)

(Missing Persons' Families Support Center)

(Episode 37)

I met her before the meeting
with Mi Rae's family.

I saw her after my yoga class twice.

Once, we just passed each other by.

Another time, I even talked to her.

I had no idea.

I thought I'd recognize her right away
if I ran into her.

But I didn't know.

I mean, I'm her father.

How could one not
recognize his own daughter?

You know it's been a long time, Dad.

I guess...

I was being selfish.

I had no idea
what Jung Eun must've gone through.

My brother will be
with Jung Eun right now.

They must be really happy.

They'll both be crying in happiness.

I know. Father's lifelong dream
has finally come true.

What if they come home
together today?

Hey, of course,
they will come home together.

This is the day Kyung Chul has been
waiting for his whole life.

He has to bring her home.

I can't wait to meet her.

She lost her parents
when she was little.

She must've gone through hard times.

Hey, all the rough days
are over for Jung Eun now.

Do you know why?

Kyung Chul owns
a store building and this house.

He will give them all to Jung Eun.

No. I don't think so, Mother.

He also has Kyung Ae and you.

Are your children
coming here tonight?

Yes. Hyun Jae is busy preparing
for his wedding, so he will be late.

And Yoon Jae will
come home after work.

Oh, right.
Hyun Jae is getting married.

Congratulations.

- Yes?
- How did it go?

Did Father meet her?

Yes.

Gosh. They met.

My gosh. I'm so happy for them.

So how did it go?
Is he coming home with her?

If he is, I should get ready.

It will be just Dad and me.

Dad, let's go home.

(Restroom)

Don't be so down.

(Missing Persons' Families Support Center)

You've already
surpassed your teacher.

It seems like yesterday
that I taught you how to drive.

I'm good at remembering
what I learned.

Good.

Look for the nearest
charging station.

I know we still have some time
before our wedding day,

but we are pressed for time
to make plans for our wedding.

That's because we're planning
to have your place remodeled.

It will be our home.

"Our home."

That sounds so thrilling.

I'm glad that
you're thrilled to hear that.

- You like it?
- Yes.

My gosh.

(Yerim)

Look at that.

Come in.

They all look nice.
I think we came to the right place.

I think so. It will look a lot nicer
with a new door.

I know.

What about this one?
It looks quite unique.

Cool.

Hyun Jae, I love this.

You sound really excited.

It's always fun
seeing something new.

Isn't it fun because you're with me?

Yes, it is.

I told you I'd go
to my parents tonight, right?

Yes. They must be elated.

I wish I could go
and congratulate them.

You will meet my aunt later.
You can congratulate them then.

By the way,
there's something I didn't tell you yet.

Okay.

What is it?

About my mom.

My mom also found her birth parents.

- Really?
- Yes.

That's great news.
I can't believe this.

But I don't think my mom is
ready to meet them yet.

Really?

You should tell her
how my grandpa found his daughter.

Then she might change her mind.

Maybe it's because my daughter's
around your age.

I couldn't just simply walk past you.

I thought he was
a nice and kind person.

But how could he abandon
his own child?

Hey.

What are you doing there?
When did you come home?

You went out
without telling me earlier.

And now,
you still won't even answer my question.

Mother, are you going out?

Yes. I want to go out
and get some fresh air.

I'll make dinner.

What's wrong with her?

She didn't look good when she left.

She looks even worse now.

Have some of this.

- Are you making bulgogi?
- Yes.

Do we have hairtail?
I want it for dinner.

We have hairtail,
but I'm making bulgogi for dinner.

I know, but you can switch.

I don't want to.

Soo Jung.

Why are you acting out of character?

What did I do?

You didn't usually speak your mind.

You just did as I asked.

You said you'd keep doing that.

Why are you going against that?

I don't see the point in being nice
and holding back.

I thought I could finally relax now.

Why are you being so aggressive?

Mother.
You can relax and do as you wish.

I will now too.

Were you unable
to act as you wished?

Yes.

You felt inhibited
since you moved in with us,

but I felt so my whole life.

Why won't he bring Jung Eun home?

I don't know.

- Let's ask when he gets home.
- Goodness.

I'm home.

Hi.

Hello.

Hi.

You're home early.

You said Aunt might visit.
I should be home.

My goodness. He's all grown up.

Mother. I wouldn't say he has grown up.

- Doesn't he look a bit intimidated?
- That's not it.

No, he has grown up.

(Star Macarons)

It's a gift from our future in-laws,
Mi Rae's younger brother.

Hello.

- Welcome.
- You all got here together?

We met outside.

Is Grandpa not home yet?

He's on his way.

You look lovely, Hae Jun.
You bought flowers?

Yes. They're a welcome gift
for Yoon Jae's aunt.

We won't need them, then.
She won't visit us today.

Why won't we need them?

Flowers are always nice.

Is my Sung Soo doing well at work,
Ms. Sim?

You don't have to call me that.
Please, call me by my name.

Oh, great. I'll do that now, Hae Jun.

Father.

He's home at last.

- Kyung Chul.
- Congratulations.

- Congratulations.
- You must be pleased.

Yes, thanks. All of you.

How did it feel to meet her?

Does she look like you or her mom?

Kyung Chul.
Why do you look so discouraged?

Is something wrong?

I'll go to my room.
You all can have fun.

Kyung Chul.

We gathered for you,
and you're leaving us hanging?

What's wrong? You said you all met.

Nothing could be wrong.
He must be overwhelmed and happy.

Yes. You could be at a loss for words
if you're too happy.

Is that it?

Well...

You need to tell us what happened
so we can plan the next step.

They met after being apart
for over 50 years.

I'd say they both need time
to get to know each other.

It was good to meet you.

- It was.
- Goodbye.

I saw her
and failed to recognize her.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Are you crying?

- Yes.
- Out of happiness, right?

Yes, that's right.

Congratulations, Grandpa.

Thank you.

Bring her over one day.
We'd love to meet her.

Yes, we should do that.

Did you exchange numbers?

You lot can go and have dinner.

- Okay.
- Let's go.

Go on.

- Bye.
- See you in a bit.

Father. Get some rest.

Shall I get your bedding out?

Please.

Are you not joining us?

I'll eat later.

Why? Do you feel unwell?

No.

She...

turned weird.

How so?

She went somewhere today
and didn't tell me even when I asked.

And she's been acting differently
since she got back.

Nothing is different.
She's just the same.

She's not.

I'm home.

Hyun Jae.

Mi Rae is my friend's granddaughter.

You need to be good to her.

Mom.

Are you in a good mood today?

Yes, I'm in a great mood.

Preparing for a wedding
is so much fun.

Hyun Jae and I
will check out furniture next.

Were you with him today?

Of course, I was.

Your dad and grandma
are in the kitchen.

Okay.

(Kobongmin Gimbap)

Welcome.

Hello. I see you're doing fine.

Yes, we're trying hard.

I came to tell you something
in person.

I have an announcement.

What is it?

Starting next week,
someone else will manage the store.

What? Is something wrong?

No. I was sent over to help
get the store back on track.

You do just fine without me,

and sales are up.

Well, yes...

Strawberry yogurt sells so well.
I should make more of them.

It's mostly because of
your general manager friend.

His mother and sister like them.

I'd say he likes you.

(Soo Jae)

Oh, dear.

Excuse me.

Hi, Soo Jae. It's been a while.

Hi, Saet Byul.

Did you hire Yu Na?

Yes, I did. How did you find out?

I just happened to.

I hope your store does great.

For me or for Yu Na?

Were you two an item?

No.

Don't lie. Yu Na said you were.

I guess I can't go there anymore.

Why not?

I'll see to it so you two
don't see each other.

And what's the big deal if you do?

You can stay friends.

Why are you so old-fashioned?

Hello.

Hello.

Are you doing okay?

Yes.

Can I have five
strawberry yogurt macarons?

Your mother must like them a lot.

These are for me.

Okay. Give me a moment.

Sure.

I wonder how my plant is doing.

(Soo Jae, Yu Na)

These two look like twins.

I think...

it would look better
to place them like this.

(Soo Jae, Yu Na)

(Soo Jae)

Your macarons are ready.

I met Soo Jae.

He and I are future in-laws.

What?

My sister's going to marry
Soo Jae's brother.

That's why his parents were there.

It was to meet your family.

You must've known his family well too.

I liked his parents
and grandfather a lot.

Hey.

- Hello, Mr. Hyun.
- Hello.

Are you here
for strawberry yogurt macarons?

Yes.

Thanks for being
such a loyal customer.

Let me buy you dinner. Yu Na too.

When?

Today works,
but any other day will do.

But I'm hungry now.

We should eat today, then.
I'll make a reservation.

Yoon Jae's grandfather
hasn't eaten yet.

Should I see if he would like to eat?

I went to his room a minute ago
and saw that he was sleeping.

When he wakes up,
I'll make him porridge.

Soo Jae, Yoon Jae.

- Yes?
- Take these.

Gosh, these look delicious.

- These, Mom?
- Yes.

Mother, where are you going?

To wash the dishes.

I'll do that. You can't possibly
wash these all by yourself.

- Yoon Jae, you'll help.
- Sure.

No, don't bother.
He'll only make a mess.

He never helped with chores
before marrying.

Mother, I'm no different.

- I'll do it.
- No, Mother.

I'll take on the task
since I'm good at it.

You can chat in the living room.

You've matured too much, you know.

Okay, Soo Jae and I
will get it done.

So what if I'm bad at it?

The worst I could do is break a plate.

No, not you. Forget it. I'll do it myself.

No, Mother.

I'll do it.

I'll get it done.

When will Grandpa
see Aunt Jung Eun again?

Well...

Soon, I guess.

Anyway, what kind of a person
is Mi Rae's mother?

Daughters are known
to take after their moms.

Is that the case?

No, they're quite different.

Her mother's very rational.

She rarely gets swayed
by just her emotions.

I see.

Hey, Hyun Jae.

Before you marry... Scoot over.

If you have any questions
about the wedding...

or the planning of it,
ask me, and I'll help you.

What can you possibly know
when you just got married yourself?

Besides, it's not like
you actually did anything.

Showing up at the wedding
was your only task.

Gosh, don't say that.
Hae Jun might hear you.

It's all right, Mom.

Hae Jun is so understanding.

She doesn't get bitter
about these things.

That doesn't mean you can treat her
the way you treat me.

Mom, please.
You should see how good he is to her.

They even feed each other during meals.

Anyway, your wedding
isn't for another three months.

What do you need to already plan?

Discussing the interior design
of the house you'll move into...

as well as buying furniture
is part of the excitement.

You just don't know that
because you married too soon.

Exactly. It's fun shopping together.

Whatever.

Nicely done.

Hae Jun,
why don't you do the rinsing...

- after I scrub them with soap?
- No, this is fine.

I bet you haven't washed
a lot of dishes.

- I haven't. Does it show?
- It sure does.

I'll finish up here,
so go talk to the others.

It's always best
before the wedding, you know.

- Unbelievable.
- It's fine.

By the way, who's going
to officiate your wedding?

My college professor.

Mi Rae and I
will meet him next week.

Hae Jun, are you done
washing the dishes?

Well...

Soo Jae kicked me out,
saying I was bad at it.

Gosh. You must be
just like Yoon Jae.

I should've done it myself.

No, Mother.
Of course, I should do it.

Mom, Hae Jun's a fast learner.

The same goes for Yoon Jae.

Right. He's yours now,
so teach him whatever is needed.

Go and help Soo Jae, will you?

I'm done!

Soo Jae, that was fast!

Hyun Jae, can we talk?

Sure.

Is there something on your mind?

Could you give me...

Mi Rae's mother's
contact information?

Of course. Is something the matter?

You know how it is.

We have a few things to discuss
regarding your wedding.

I don't have it right now,

so I'll get back to you
after asking Mi Rae.

The sooner, the better.

- Sure.
- Good.

What is this about?

It's nothing, Mom.

What's going on?

- What do you mean?
- Don't play dumb with me.

What else could I be asking about?

Why has your father been upset
after meeting his daughter?

Are things on her end
worse than we imagined?

I guess that's obvious
since she lost her parents...

at the age of four.

But she had her DNA
put in the database...

to find her parents.

Wasn't it because
she was doing better?

What took her so long?

We didn't get around to asking that.

Then what did you talk about?

Nothing much.

Why? So all you did was see her?

I guess you can put it like that.

Did his daughter lash out
at your father by any chance?

- Was she angry?
- No, it's not like that.

Gosh, this is frustrating.

When will he see her again?

- This way, please.
- Sure.

This place looks expensive.

I know.

How can he ask me to treat him
at a place like this?

I don't earn that much.

Should I ask that we leave?

How can we?

Aren't you coming?

After you, Mr. Hyun.

Sure.

Come on.

You must come here often.

I come on special occasions,

and when I want to treat nice people
with nice food.

I see.

Don't you like it here?

Of course, I like it here.

It just seems too heavy for me.

I watch what I eat for dinner.

I see. Then please order something
like a salad.

Right.

(210 dollars)

Yu Na, what would you like to have?

Mr. Hyun,
I have something to tell you.

Please go ahead.

Salad options are on the next page.

Also, dinner's on me today,
so please order whatever you want.

You're buying today?

I thought that was obvious.

The one who's buying
usually chooses the restaurant.

Right, of course.

That being said,
a salad doesn't seem adequate.

Not at a place like this, right?

When in doubt, order a course meal.

Course A or Course B.

I'll have Course A.
Yu Na, what about you?

I'll have what you're having.

Then I'll have what Yu Na's having.

Excuse me.

All right.

Where are you?

I just got home.

My dad asked for
your mom's contact information.

My mom? What for?

It must be because of the wedding.

Right.
I'll text you her number, then.

How did your grandpa seem...

after he got back home
from meeting his daughter?

I bet he was thrilled.

He seemed calmer
than expected though.

My dad didn't say much,

but he mentioned
needing time to get to know her.

By the looks of it,

it seems as though
my aunt wasn't too fond to see him.

Not even my mom would be
too thrilled at first...

to meet her birth parents.

Maybe you should
give her a lot of time to think...

before she decides to meet them.

Thanks.

That's why
I'm going to put off telling her...

about your grandpa's situation.

Good.

Anyway, how about we
go ring shopping tomorrow?

Rings?

Yes, rings.

All right. See you tomorrow, then.
Good night.

Mi Rae.

Hey, Mom. Come in.

Were you exercising before bed?

Just some light stretches.

Mom, I need to drop a few pounds...

if I'm going to wear a wedding dress.

Do you have something to say?

I hope you don't
take this the wrong way.

Marriage is an important decision.

Hyun Jae...

seems like a good guy.

And?

Marrying a decent man
is the right decision,

but it doesn't guarantee
that you'll get along well.

So?

I am well aware of
the love you have for him.

But maybe you could reconsider.

What?

Mom...

No, pretend that I didn't say anything.

I'm sorry. We won't talk about this.

Why are you saying this...

when we have already
settled on a date?

I'm sorry.

Mom,

I'm happy.

I'm happy to the point
that I'm scared...

because it seems unreal.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have brought this up.

Like I said,
I'm only concerned about you.

Mothers are worrywarts
when it comes to their children.

That's why.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

Dad, is something going on with Mom?

Like what? Why do you ask?

She doesn't seem fond...

of me marrying Hyun Jae.

That's highly unlikely.
She absolutely adores him.

Her reservations about him
are in the past.

Then why did she tell me...

to reconsider my marriage?

I'm sure it had nothing
to do with Hyun Jae.

She wants you to consider
what marriage means to you.

You're reading too much into things
now that you're engaged.

Here.

Honey, did you...

speak to Mi Rae
about her upcoming wedding?

What did she say to you?

She seemed worried.

Why did you tell her that?

It's not like you have doubts
about Hyun Jae.

Of course not.

Right.

By the way,
where did you go during the day?

Mom said...

that your demeanor shifted
once you got back.

I spoke my mind with her.

I guess it caught her off guard.

Keeping everything inside has led
you to have these outbursts.

Aren't you going to meet
your birth parents?

You said they were waiting for you
to pick a date.

I don't want to talk about it.

I think this is the root
of all your problems.

Dragging your feet on the matter
has only put you on edge.

Don't talk like you know everything.

See what I mean?

What I said wasn't enough
to warrant that kind of outburst.

If this is how it's going to be,
don't meet them.

I met my family

You did?

Yes.

I was ready to forgive them
which is why I agreed to it.

And?

I can't forgive them.

Why not? What were they like?

Who was there to see you?

Your biological father
had his DNA put in the database.

Was your mother there as well?

When will I get to meet them?

Why would you meet them?

Because I'm your husband.
Of course, I should meet them.

I won't ever see them again.

It will never happen,

so forget I said anything.

Honey.

I found our daughter.

But it turns out...

we had met before.

Not once, not twice, but three times.

I thought...

that I'd be able to recognize her
despite her age,

but that wasn't the case.

I have no right to be her father.

Maybe that upset her...

because she left
as soon as she saw me.

What can I do though?

I must beg for her forgiveness.

I should beg for
our daughter's forgiveness.

Now that I know she's alive,

I can tell her about you.

That you loved her
with all your heart.

And that I did so as well.

That I lost the will to live...

the day I lost her.

Mr. Hyun, thank you for dinner.

It was nothing.

I live close by,
so maybe you could take Yu Na home.

Saet Byul, I'll go with you.

When we live in opposite directions?

I'll see you tomorrow.
Until next time, Mr. Hyun.

Sure.

She told me to take you home,

so let's go together.

Thank you for tonight.

There's no need to thank me.
I do it because I like you.

Could you perhaps stop saying
that you like me?

Why's that?

Because I don't like you back.

You don't?

You don't hate me,
but you don't like me either.

I'm afraid so.

I appreciate your honesty.

Thanks for not leading me on.

I don't think a man
and a woman can be friends.

I was going to say
that we should stay friends.

Can I still go to buy macarons?

Sure.

I will stop saying
that I like you, Yu Na.

I don't do
what others don't want me to do.

I'd rather stop seeing them.

Gosh, I'm tired.

Do you want me
to put this in the fridge?

What else can you do with it?

You sound a little edgy.

It's not like I'm used
to doing the dishes.

You had fun with your family
when I was stuck in the kitchen.

I was going to do the dishes,
but everyone stopped me.

And Mom told you not to do it.
She said she'd do the dishes.

How could I let her do the dishes?

And I wanted to win favor
with your family.

You are comfortable
at your parents' place, but I'm not.

So you're supposed to help me
get used to the place.

I know what you mean,

but you don't have to get
on their good side.

I mean we are family now.

You don't have to try so hard
to get on your family's side.

It will only make things worse.

I know Sim Hae Jun is a confident woman.
What's with you?

But it's just that...

I can't be like that
around my in-laws.

Just show them who you are.

You should
show my parents and family...

what you really are like
so they will know how to treat you.

And if you feel uncomfortable
around my family,

we can never get along well.

Are you not getting along
with your family because of me?

Do I have
that much influence on you?

You have an absolute influence.

Absolute?
Now I feel like I'm married.

Honey, what makes you realize
that you are married?

Something like this.

Before I got married,
I didn't have to lift a finger at home.

But I do all the housework now.

- It's just sad.
- Sad?

This isn't what I used to do.

When I lived with my parents,
my mom would do everything for me.

My dolt, so you are sad.
Let me do it.

I'm just joking. I'll put these in.

Be careful.
I love Mother's side dishes.

Yes, ma'am.

You're cute.

Right.

You know we're going to the clinic
to hear the results tomorrow.

Of course, I remember that.

And...

did you just call me cute?

Who told you to say that?

What did I do? You're just cute.

Aren't you going out for a walk?

I don't want to go out.

You should exercise
at times like this.

You finally found Jung Eun.

You should live
a long and healthy life.

I made a mistake.

When Jung Eun refused me yesterday,

I should've clung to her.

I will...

talk to Jung Eun.

You will? Do you have her number?

- Yes.
- Give me her number then.

I will.

Min Ho.

I want to do anything for Jung Eun.

To make up for
what I didn't do as her parent.

I know.

Hello?

This is Lee Min Ho,
Hyun Jae's father.

Oh, hello.

I'd like to meet you.

I don't want to see my father.

It will be just me.

We will need to talk
about our children anyway.

You must've been flustered
to see us there that day.

I thought...

we would have a lot to talk about
once we had met.

While living with my dad,

I always felt like I was
living with his lost daughter.

And I thought
we would really hit it off.

I don't want to talk...

about my birth father
or his adopted son.

I want to hear
why you are feeling that way.

What we know about each other
are just our faces.

We didn't even get to talk.

But why do you not want
to even talk to us?

He didn't seem like a man
who lived a life...

that someone who abandoned
his child deserved.

I met him before.

What more is there to talk about?

Are you upset that my dad seems
to have had a happy life?

Yes. It makes me furious.

After abandoning his own child,

he adopted a son
and raised him with love and care.

He didn't abandon you.
There was a misunderstanding.

He just sent you to an orphanage
for a while, but...

For a while?

That means he abandoned me.

Don't call me again.

Did you tell Mi Rae?

We have our children involved in this.

Can I take a look at this one?

- Sure.
- The second one.

- Please wait.
- Okay.

- Here.
- They look pretty.

You should try it on.
I'll put it on your finger.

Here.

Isn't it a little too thick?

You think so?

What about this one?

This is popular these days.

- Really?
- They look nice.

You think? Let's try them on.

- I like this one most.
- I like it too.

Hang on.

All right. Okay.

Here.

- What do you think?
- It's pretty.

I love it.

Gosh, I'm nervous.

It feels like I'm waiting
for my exam results in college.

Mr. Lee Yoon Jae
and Ms. Sim Hae Jun.

Yes.

The sperm count
and motility are pretty good.

But the sperm shape isn't ideal.

- Is that so?
- Yes.

Ms. Sim Hae Jun,
your AMH level is 1.45.

You are 42 years old,

and it's appropriate for your age.

Then that means it's normal, right?
Is it a good thing?

Considering the AMH level
and your age,

it wouldn't be easy
for you to conceive naturally.

You don't have much time left.

I believe you should try
IVF treatment as soon as possible.

It's all right.

We can still live happy lives
without a child.

We are having a lot of fun now.

I know it's fun.

But that doesn't
make me feel any better.

So we won't have a kid in our lives.

That's not true.
We have other options.

We can try IVF treatment.

It's just our choice.

I wish at least one of us
got good results.

It will increase the chances.

But we both got bad results.

Doesn't it make us feel closer
and more intimate?

Smile.

I can't.

It's okay.

Soo Jung.

Is she not home yet?

Why is she so busy these days?

You're home.

Yes, Mother.

What shall we have for dinner?

I haven't thought about it yet.

How about shabu-shabu?
We haven't had it in a while.

I don't think we have
any of the ingredients.

Get some right now.

I don't want to cook dinner today.

What?

Let's order in.

I'll find a place
that delivers shabu-shabu.

Soo Jung.

You know I don't like restaurant food.

I'm sorry, Mother.

But I don't feel like cooking today.

You said we should say...

exactly how we feel from now on.

You told me to do the same.

You said you didn't want to.

I changed my mind.

You said...

you were the only parent figure
I had left.

So what?

If Jin Ju said
she didn't feel like cooking,

what would you have said?

Soo Jung.
Why are you acting like this?

Did something happen...

over the past few days?

I'm going to my room.

I'm home.

Oh, good. Jin Heon!

- Come in.
- What is it?

Come here.

Have you noticed?

Soo Jung has changed.

She changed so drastically.

Will she change for the better
if she meets her birth parents?

She met them already.

I think that's what got her so down.

What are the people like?

She won't say.

They must be worse off
than we thought.

I just hate it
when things get complicated,

and this is complicated.

Father. I'm so glad
to see you eat well.

I was worried
you'd lost your appetite...

since you'd met your lost daughter.

I need to be strong...

if I'm to do everything
I couldn't for her so far.

I'm forcing myself to eat
because I must.

You made the right call.

I can't wait to find out
what she's like.

I'd like to have her over
for a chat.

That will happen soon, won't it?

I'm home.

Honey, we're in here.

I'm home.

Can I have a word?

Come with me.

What did Jung Eun say?

Why did she leave like that?

She wants to see me again,
doesn't she?

I think there's a misunderstanding.

What?

You must explain that to her.

I'll arrange a meeting.

No.

I should be the one to settle that.

Hello?

Jung Eun.

It's your dad.

Do you hear me?

Yes.

When can we meet?

I don't want to see you.

Let's meet.

I'll let you hit me.

I'll let you curse me out.

Jung Eun.

What did Father want to say
as soon as you got home?

It's nothing.

I'm mistaken to think you two...

are leaving me out
to plot something, right?

Of course, you are.

Honey.

- Hyun Jae's wedding preparations.
- Yes.

Let's not leave it
all up to the kids.

I'm planning to meet Mi Rae
this weekend to discuss some stuff.

We didn't do anything for Yoon Jae
because his marriage was rushed.

This time,
I want to be more attentive.

We should meet Mi Rae's parents too.

What for?

People who went hiking or traveled
with their in-laws.

I envied people
who were close to their in-laws.

Hae Jun has no parents
for us to hang out with,

but Mi Rae has both.

Drink some water.

How do I look?

You look cool.

You're like a model.

Mom, did you see me?

No, I didn't.

Look at me. I'm going to be a model.

- What?
- Daddy's home!

- Dad!
- Dad!

My goodness.

Will you all get off of him?

Dad, I'll make you and Mom happy.

She found something she's good at.

Dad, Mom, watch.

Wow. You're amazing!

Dad, watch this.

You'll hurt yourself. Put that down.

How did I look, Mom?

You looked great.
Well done, Ha Neul.

We'll make you both happy.

- We'll make you happy!
- We'll make you happy!

I love you.

I love you too.

I knew they'd be like this.

What are we to do about them now?

They have these massive dreams.

Let them do what they want.
I'll back them.

We can't afford to support
their extra-curricular activities.

I will, even if I work myself to death,

so don't intimidate them.

Dad!

- My gosh.
- What do you think?

Good for you. Well done.

You're such a troublemaker.

Get some cheese too.

Okay.

(Father)

Hello, Father.

How are you doing?

I'm fine.

I need to discuss something
with you.

When are you free?

The sooner the better.

We can meet tomorrow.

Give me a time and place,
and I'll meet you there.

Bye.

Hi. It has been a while.

We meet again.

You have so much good news to share.

Not really.

Your daughter-in-law's over there.

Okay, thanks. Come over sometime.

I will.

You don't have to stand. Let's sit.

Would you like something to drink?

Yes.

I'm a little impatient.

I can't wait to hear
what this is about.

You're not asking me
for legal advice, are you?

I am.

Father.

Are you and Mother getting a divorce?

No, this concerns
Yoon Jae's grandfather.

His grandfather?

I would like you
to keep this between us for now.

You're a lawyer,

so attorney-client privilege
isn't a foreign concept to you.

Of course.

A matter concerning your father.

Is this about...

the long-lost daughter
he recently got to meet?

Yes, they met,

but she's someone we all know.

Who is it?

Mi Rae's mother.

Sorry?

Mi Rae's...

What...

How could this be?

Tell me about it.

I don't know...

if Mi Rae and Hyun Jae
can still get married.

Could we run into
any legal problems?

Well, that...

I'm afraid I can't give you
a straight answer right now.

It's not my area of expertise.

Yoon Jae's grandfather...

and Mi Rae's mother.

What are their thoughts on this?

The rift between them is too great,

and this matter
hasn't even been addressed.

Thank you for coming.

Please have a seat.

You too.

I'm sorry.

As your father,
I should've recognized you.

When did my mom pass away?

After your second birthday.
She had cancer.

It's all my fault.

I was working in sales at the time.

I was so busy that sometimes
I could only come home once a month.

Did raising me burden you
after Mom passed away?

Is that why you abandoned me?

I never abandoned you.
It was just temporary.

After your mother's untimely death,

I was diagnosed with tuberculosis.

I couldn't risk
you getting infected too.

I tried getting a babysitter,
but no one was available.

So what if I got tuberculosis?

We should've died together
if it came to it.

Why did you tear me away from you?

I'm really sorry.

Why did you even look for me?

You had everything in your life.
So why?

You substituted me
with the son you adopted...

who gave you a daughter-in-law
and grandchildren.

Ever since I lost you,

you have always been on my mind.

I only chose to adopt Min Ho...

because I believed...

that karma would make sure
you were adopted too.

That was why I raised him with love.

When we met,

I saw how you had a good life.

It brought me peace since it meant
that my prayers were answered.

You think I had a good life?

According to Ms. Yoon,

you were adopted by a professor.

A professor's daughter.

Growing up with a professor
as an adoptive parent...

doesn't erase the fact
that I was abandoned.

You weren't abandoned.

I know I'm to blame,
but I never abandoned you.

I wanted to live
with my birth parents...

even if they were people
with nothing to their names.

We could've been poor
or argued all the time.

But I still wanted
to know my birth parents.

Because that's normal
for everyone, isn't it?

And it was what I also wanted.

I would've understood
if you had been poor, sick,

or twisted with your own set of issues.

Because life would've been
tough on you.

How could you have
taken care of a child...

when caring for yourself
had been a challenge?

But we met three times.

And every time,

you gave me the impression...

that your life had been fairly easy.

But then...

I got to find out...

that you were the father
who abandoned me.

Father, you're home.

How did it go with your daughter?

Father?

My gosh.

Father.

What's wrong?

Kyung Ae.

Father.

What on earth did your daughter say?

Does she resent you?

Why don't I talk to her instead?

Could you let me meet her?

You already have.
She's someone you know.

Who is it?

Mi Rae's mom.

It's Mi Rae's mom.

Honey?

- What...
- Soo Jung?

Why are you crying?

Gosh, why are you crying?

Were you with
your biological parents just now?

Is that the reason?

Don't meet them ever again!

You don't need them
in your life now!

She's right. Let's put it to rest.

You know what they're like,
so that's that.

Don't ever meet them again.

But I have to.

What do you mean?

(It's Beautiful Now)

His long-lost daughter
is his soon-to-be in-law?

These are the letters
he wrote on your birthdays.

If your father and Mi Rae's mother
restore their relationship...

We're done here, so I'll get going.

I'm afraid Hyun Jae and Mi Rae
won't be able to register their marriage.

I heard everything.

Get Hyun Jae
to reconsider his marriage.

I'm sorry.

If he registers you as his daughter,

will that make you Hyun Jae's aunt?

What do I do?

I'm all right.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry, Mi Rae.
