What gentleman? What is she talking about?

- Yeong I. - Yeong I.

Grandmother, actually...

Are you seeing someone?

The thing is, Mother...

Gosh, what are you talking about?

She's not seeing anyone.

Oh, right.

He's my friend from college.

Why did Mi Ri Nae draw herself going to the amusement park with him?

His name is Woon Ki. We went to college together,

and he works at the amusement park now.

He's giving us free passes.

He told me to come today with Mi Ri Nae.

Mi Ri Nae.

I guess you were excited about meeting my friend.

Yeong I. You know how much I love gimbap, right?

- Make sure you pack enough. - Okay.

Mi Ri Nae, let's go wash hands and have breakfast.

All the other kids go to places like this with their dads,

but Mi Ri Nae...

Thank goodness she has Do Sik at least, right?

Did you pick up all the ingredients for gimbap?

Sorry? Oh, yes.

I didn't lie to help you.

I never asked you to lie for me.

What would you have told Mom, Dad, and Grandma had I not stepped in?

"That's right. I'm seeing my co-worker."

"He and I are taking Mi Ri Nae to the amusement park today."

"It's a date." Would you have told them that?

I'm going to tell them when the time is right.

Anyway, why have you suddenly changed your mind?

You acted like you'd be totally against it.

I don't know.

Eun Jin said I was like a roadblock to your future.

She gave me an earful.

I really can't stand you when I think about my brother,

but you shouldn't get caught like that.

Since this happened,

I should tag along and go to the amusement park with you guys.

You said Eun Jin gave you an earful.

If you tag along, she'll yell at you again.

Will you be all right?

Oh, that's...

She already thinks I'm the biggest idiot.

Something's going on between you two, right?

Yesterday, at the cafe...

What about the cafe?

I was so drunk that I don't remember a thing.

Anyway, what's Eun Jin doing today?

She'll probably stay at the cafe all day.

She's busy getting ready for her grand opening.

Should we drop off some gimbap for her?

Yes, good idea.

Oh, Eun Jin likes tuna mayo gimbap.

You know that, right?

I'm getting better at lying, aren't I?

Honey, I'm off to work.

Goodness. You never tell me when you're heading off to work.

Hurry up,

or Mother will yell at you again.

All right.

Honey! Hold on.

What is it?

I think he was lying.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about Yeong I.

I think Do Sik lied to us so she can go out on a date.

No way. You think she's taking Mi Ri Nae when she's got a date?

Well, in any case...

It bothers me that Yeong I just stood there without saying anything.

Yeong I can't lie, you know.

That's what my gut is telling me.

I should ask her again.

Honey, please don't.

Why? I'm curious.

Even so, don't ask her.

Why not? I can't even ask?

If she ever gets into a serious relationship,

she'll tell us first.

Don't forget that we're her parents-in-law.

Would you like it if you were her?

If your parents-in-law pried...

and asked you if you were seeing someone.

You always act like she's our daughter.

Now, you're saying we're her parents-in-law?

Because we are.

(So Bok Hee's Tasty Beef Bone Soup)

Go make gimbap.

What are you doing here?

Goodness. Hand that over.

I still have some time.

I'll just fill the side dishes and get going.

No, don't worry about it.

Let's sit down.

Did you want to talk to me about something, Grandma?

Ever since we lost Do Jin like that,

you, Yeong I...

You've been living like a bird with broken wings...

for over five years now.

Your grandma, Ms. Buyeo, and I stayed widows our whole lives.

We focused on raising our children...

and did nothing but work for decades.

But everyone lived like that back in the day.

Times have changed though.

Yeong I.

I want you to fly freely like a bird.

Fly as high and far as you want to.

Grandma.

That's why I never let you come into the kitchen.

It was Ms. Buyeo's wish.

And now,

it's my wish too. Okay?

Grandma.

Why are you suddenly telling me this?

I always meant to tell you this.

You work at a big company now,

so don't live like a little bird...

chained to this family. That's what I wanted to tell you.

Hey, Yeong I.

Yes, Father.

Oh, it's nothing.

Wait, Yeong I.

- Yes? - It'll be chilly during the day.

Make sure Mi Ri Nae is dressed warmly.

You should bundle up too.

Okay, I will.

You too, Father. Stay warm.

All right.

Don't worry about us.

Yeong I, do you need a hand?

- Where's Mi Ri Nae? - She's in Do Sik's room.

Yeong I.

Yes?

About Hae Mi...

Didn't you say she was dating a co-worker?

Why do you ask?

I just think it's strange.

If she has a boyfriend,

why did she come to see Eun Ho?

They looked as though they were in the middle of a lovers' spat.

She met Eun Ho?

Yes, at the cafe.

I was so surprised when I saw them talking to each other.

Don't tell me she's the one...

Eun Ho has a crush on.

No, it's not her.

Really? How do you know?

What?

Oh, that's... They only met recently.

You've been single for too long that you no longer know how it works.

Knowing each other for a long time isn't important.

You can totally fall for someone at first sight.

I can't ask Eun Ho about it.

This is so frustrating.

She came to see Eun Ho?

What is she up to?

You really won't tell me?

What did Kim Hae Mi say to you yesterday?

Is it that important?

Enough to make you barge into my room first thing in the morning?

Yes. I couldn't sleep a wink because I was so curious.

Tell me. What did she say?

She told me to protect the one I had feelings for...

and that she'd do the same.

So she knows that you have feelings for Yeong I?

Yes.

My gosh, she's incredibly quick-witted.

In any case, she must've been extremely anxious,

seeing how she came to say that to you in person.

Don't meddle in their love lives.

I...

plan to tell Yeong I.

Tell her what?

Don't tell me you want to confess your feelings to her.

Now, of all times?

Hey, that's...

Why? Are you worried that she'd flat out reject me?

Even if she rejects me,

it'll be better than having to give up...

without even telling her how I feel.

Eun Ho and Eun Jin. Come out and have some fruit!

Oh, I'll do it.

Son.

There's someone I'd like you to meet.

Who?

Mom, do you want him to go on a blind date?

It's not a blind date.

Mr. Chairman wants to introduce you to his friend's granddaughter.

He thinks you two should just meet up and hang out.

Mom, that is a blind date.

Well, there's someone I like.

What? You like someone?

You never told me!

Bring her over. I want to meet her.

You chose her, so I'm sure I'll approve of her.

He said he liked someone. He never said he had a girlfriend.

You're getting way ahead of yourself, Mom.

In any case, there's someone I like,

so I don't want to meet another woman.

Please let Mr. Chairman know.

All right, I will.

Eun Jin, you must know...

who it is that your brother likes.

Who is she?

What does she do?

We're home.

Did you guys exercise?

Yes, we had sandwiches after working out.

Kyung Jun, Se Jun. You guys are free today, right?

Why do you ask?

Our wedding anniversary is coming up.

We'll take your grandfather out for lunch.

I already booked a restaurant.

Why didn't you tell us in advance? Kyung Jun has important plans.

What should we do, honey?

Father was excited about eating out together...

as a family.

I'm sorry, but I'll have to pass.

I'll let Grandpa know.

It's not like any other lunch.

Our anniversary is coming up, so we want to have a family lunch.

Your plans can't be more important than the family.

- Father. - You told me...

to pay more attention to your mother than to you guys,

so help me out here.

Who is Kyung Jun meeting today?

I'm not sure.

He's probably meeting that girl, Lee Yeong I.

Today, we could use the family lunch to make him cancel,

but what will we do from now on? I'm worried.

It's not like we can lock him up in his room.

Don't worry, honey.

The two of them...

- won't meet again. - How do you know that?

Meet with Ms. Kim's parents later,

and you'll find out.

I'm so forgetful.

Chang Yi and Hwa Kyung will come to pick us up around lunchtime.

But I forgot to tell you.

Uncle Chang Yi and Auntie Hwa Kyung are coming?

I told them not to come as we'd be busy at the restaurant,

but they kept saying two hours would be enough.

They'll treat us all to a nice meal, including you, Yeong I.

- Me too? - Yes.

Why just Yeong I? What about me? I'll tag along too.

I want to ask Hae Mi something too.

Oh, no. I've got plans.

Right, I understand you can't cancel.

I can't. Mi Ri Nae is very excited about it.

Okay. I think Chang Yi wanted to take you out for a meal,

but it's all right. Don't worry.

Mother, are you going out?

Yes. Come out and help your husband later, okay?

Goodness. I don't understand Chang Yi and Hwa Kyung.

I mean, if they wanted to take Mother out,

shouldn't they have consulted me first?

Lunchtime on weekends is when we're the busiest.

(Mr. Jang Kyung Jun)

Mom, eat the piece at the end.

- Hi, it's me. - Yeong I.

I'm sorry, but can we meet a couple of hours later?

My parents' wedding anniversary is coming up.

But they want to go out for lunch today with us and Grandpa.

All right.

Then why don't we meet at 2 p.m. and...

Actually, no.

Let's go to the amusement park another time.

Why? I'm so excited to go there.

If I leave right after lunch...

If you leave first, their feelings will be hurt.

Just spend the day with your family. Take it easy.

All right, then. Bye.

Yeong I.

Yeong I.

We can go another day.

Ta-da!

Mom, don't I look pretty?

Uncle Do Sik picked out this outfit for me.

Where's your hairpin, Mom? I want to wear it.

I have a good fashion sense, right?

She'll be Miss Popular at the amusement park.

Gosh...

Mi Ri Nae, the thing is...

How about...

we go to the amusement park with just Uncle Do Sik today?

The three of us will eat gimbap...

and go on all the rides. What do you say?

We'll have Course A.

- Only the finest ingredients. - Sure thing.

It's an important occasion. Make sure all looks good.

Yes, ma'am.

If people at work found out that you're my cousin-in-law,

Mr. Jang Kyung Jun and the others on our team...

would criticize you harshly...

for mistreating me while pretending you didn't know my circumstances.

Do you think you can handle that?

If you have a clear conscience,

tell them about your relationship with me.

Lee Yeong I.

Let's see how confident you can be today.

Hello, Mr. Chairman. I'm sorry about the other day.

My wife told me about the family lunch today.

I'll bring my mother too. I'll see you at lunch.

Seeing how they wanted to meet Mother too,

they must want Hae Mi to be their daughter-in-law.

I knew it.

I was wondering why High Heels...

was suddenly suggesting we go out for lunch together.

Father.

You haven't stepped out of your room all morning.

Would you like a cup of tea?

- Sit down. - Pardon me?

Are you going deaf?

Oh, okay.

You said we should go out for lunch together...

because your wedding anniversary was coming up.

What kind of ruse are you cooking up?

My gosh, Father. Ruse? No way.

We just wanted to take you out for lunch...

- with Kyung Jun and Se Jun... - So you and Yi Jae...

planned this together?

You invited Hae Mi's parents and even her grandmother.

Why are the two families getting together?

What for?

Are we going to discuss their wedding or something?

Father, how did you find out...

No, Father. Please don't get the wrong idea.

Yi Jae just thought it was such a shame...

that he didn't get to properly meet Ms. Kim's father last time.

She has her grandmother too,

so we thought it'd be nice to meet her...

Cancel it.

Sorry?

Father.

We're supposed to meet them in a few hours.

It's rude to cancel now.

Also, as for Ms. Kim...

The family is hugely indebted to her as you know.

Wouldn't it be nice...

to meet her parents properly...

and get to know them better?

That's what happens at a pre-wedding family meeting.

She and Kyung Jun don't have that kind of relationship.

Kyung Jun clearly told us that she was just a close friend.

So why are you stepping in?

Father.

Regarding Kyung Jun and Se Jun's weddings,

just let us handle everything.

What?

Yi Jae also thinks that...

Kyung Jun won't find anyone better than Ms. Kim.

I don't know what you did to win Yi Jae over to your side,

but I can see right through you.

What do you see?

You want to marry him off to the daughter...

of a decent family whom you can control.

You are even trying to use your son's marriage...

to satisfy your selfish greed.

This is precisely why I can never trust you!

Father, you really are out of line.

You always assume that I have an ulterior motive.

Isn't that why you can never trust anything I do?

You see, I really do not have an ulterior motive.

I just want Kyung Jun to be with someone...

who can understand and embrace his pain.

And on that note, Ms. Kim...

is perfect for Kyung Jun.

No matter how good something is,

you can never force others to take it.

You're being greedy if you force Kyung Jun...

to be with someone he doesn't have any feelings for.

I don't want to be rude to her family. Cancel the lunch at once!

You wasted your time.

Even if the lunch happened,

I would've left right away.

So...

don't try so hard to help me, Mother.

No.

You would've stayed until the end.

I invited someone you'd be very excited to see.

Well, we can do it another day.

Someone I'd be excited to see?

What are you cooking up?

Kyung Jun canceled his plans, right?

Kyung Jun isn't the problem now.

- What? - Father is the problem.

He lashed out at me and told me to cancel the lunch.

How did he find out?

What?

It'd be extremely rude to cancel now.

They're bringing Hae Mi's grandmother too.

I'll talk to my father.

No, forget it.

We should just step back and let it go.

Who knows what he'd say to them...

if we forced him to join us for lunch?

My father-in-law is not feeling well today.

I'm sorry, but we'll have to reschedule.

Mother, we're here.

Chang Il, Eun Sook.

Stop! Hold on, honey.

- What is it? - What's wrong with this family?

They invited us out.

How could they cancel on us just an hour before the meeting?

We came all the way here to pick up Mother.

What's their reason?

She said the chairman wasn't feeling well.

Then she should've let us know sooner.

Honey. They're doing this because they look down on us, right?

Maybe he really isn't feeling well all of a sudden.

This is actually good.

I didn't really want to meet them today.

Why not?

What father would be fond of a guy...

his daughter is chasing with no sign of him liking her back?

I understand that he comes from a good family,

but even if we and his parents want them to get married,

I don't like this.

Try not to force things.

I can't believe she texted me and didn't even bother to call.

I know you're rich, but so what?

This is extremely rude.

Hae Mi must've left already.

(My Dear Daughter)

Hi, Mom. You're on your way here with Grandma, right?

Make sure you bring Yeong I too.

Forget it.

What's wrong with Kyung Jun's mother?

She canceled on us just an hour before the meeting. Via text!

What?

Why?

She said the chairman wasn't feeling well.

I don't know. I'm sure it's just an excuse.

Hey, this is unacceptable.

We have a thing called pride too.

Do we have to come and go as per their orders?

What are we? Their servants?

They must've thought you were such a pushover...

Mom, must you be like this too?

Who cares if they think of me as a pushover...

or their servant?

I don't care.

I just want to be with Kyung Jun no matter what.

So don't do anything to get on Ms. Cha's nerves.

Just text her back and say, "Okay."

I have to go.

I'm sorry, Mother. You got ready and waited for us.

We're so sorry, Mother.

If you met Kyung Jun today,

you would've been so happy.

Gosh, this is so disappointing.

Goodness. It's okay.

It's not like they've decided on the date for their wedding.

By the sounds of it,

it's too soon for me to meet them in person.

But...

they suddenly canceled.

Does that mean their family...

doesn't really want their son to marry Hae Mi?

- What? - I mean,

how could they cancel just an hour before the meeting?

Maybe you got overly eager...

and rubbed them the wrong way.

Eun Sook!

Even if you're anxious, try not to show it.

Or things will just fall through, Hwa Kyung.

Mother, let's go.

I want to take you out for lunch.

Gosh, forget it. I should be at the restaurant.

You too, Eun Sook. Get up.

Me too?

Today is Saturday. The restaurant must be packed right now.

Stop trying to upset Hwa Kyung. Get up already.

He said it was for his parents' wedding anniversary.

Yeong I, can you get me a glass of cold water?

- My goodness. - Sorry? Oh, sure.

Here.

Hae Mi told me to bring you too.

I heard you told her you couldn't make it.

She wanted me to join too?

Yes. You work with Kyung Jun too, so she thought...

it'd be nice to have you join us too.

I heard everyone at work found out that...

you're a widowed single mother.

I think Hae Mi wanted to cheer you up.

That's probably why she asked me to bring you. Here.

That was her plan?

Oh, you're leaving already? Stay for lunch.

I can fix something quickly.

I don't want to bother you on the weekend. See you another time.

Are the kids taking a nap?

We'll leave quietly. You don't need to see us out.

Okay, bye.

(Hae Mi)

Hae Mi, let's meet. I need to talk to you.

I'll leave now. Decide where to meet and text me the address.

(Hae Mi)

Mi Ri Nae got tired after crying her eyes out and fell asleep.

Gosh, why can't she just go there with you and Do Sik?

She's so stubborn. Who does she take after?

Do Sik's friend. What was his name? Woon Ki?

I guess she really wanted to hang out with him today.

Where is Do Sik?

No idea. I think he went out.

Really? I have to go to Eun Jin's cafe.

I won't be long.

Okay, sure.

I'll play with Mi Ri Nae when she wakes up.

Thanks, Do Young.

Why are you out here?

You haven't had lunch yet, right?

Do Sik said you liked tuna mayo gimbap.

Tuna mayo gimbap isn't important right now.

What do you mean?

Forget it. Go inside and see for yourself.

Don't hold back.

Ms. Lee.

You're the one who wanted to meet up. You're late, cousin-in-law.

"Cousin-in-law?"

I didn't know you invited Kyung Jun too.

What is this? You wanted the three of us to sit down and talk?

I didn't call him here,

but this is actually good.

(The Love in Your Eyes)

I called you because I was worried that you'd be crying your eyes out.

Why do I constantly find myself worrying about you these days?

I should find out.

I'm deceiving the family...

to date him. Am I doing the right thing?

You're not deceiving them.

It's just not the right time to tell them yet.

If you're going to play with her for a while and dump her...

Don't forget that my big family has got her back.
