EPISODE 11

Mr. Seo's a little drunk and would rather not go home to an empty house.

He asked if he could sleep on the couch.

-Sure thing. -He's been wanting to come over.

We should have invited him sooner.

Things were too hectic.

He can sleep in my room.

Is it clean? Doesn't it smell?

It's not like I drink or smoke, you know.

I feel lighter.

Babies need to be older to come here, right?

Of course.

I'd like to take a walk.

I haven't been able to recently.

Not having winter

-would be such a loss. -You're right.

They say that Hawaii is like paradise,

but I don't want to live there.

Me neither. It'd be boring.

I believe that winter is the queen of seasons.

It has its charms.

Snow always has you in awe.

Ice, frost,

the sun glistening on the snow,

and the cold breeze.

What about Jeong-bin?

Which will you teach him first? Skiing or skating?

He'll learn to ride my shoulders first.

Rather than just registering our marriage,

let's have another wedding and renew our vows.

That's what I wanted too.

I can see more stars than usual today.

That makes me feel grateful.

I've been at ease lately, you know.

Thanks to you, I found inner peace.

I'm grateful for this moment

and also for tonight.

Please stay by my side for decades to come.

Maybe he just went home.

Maybe.

I hope he didn't fall asleep in his car.

He could have.

Hello?

Where are you? I thought you were coming up.

I'm on my way.

Sure.

Mom, sleep in my room and let him have yours.

So he can wash up easily.

But he doesn't have a change of clothes.

Still.

He just wants to get some sleep on the couch.

He's not a stray puppy, you know.

Then I'll set him up in the study.

It's too late

to go see Jeong-bin, right?

As if. Besides, it's not some stranger's house.

It's your home too now.

Welcome. There are lots of pretty things here.

Please take your time.

This and this, please.

-What about this? -It's pretty.

Maybe he's waiting to sober up a little.

He went out with some friends and had quite a lot to drink.

Should I make honey water?

I bet you'll make it super sweet, just the way you like it.

Honey water is meant to be sweet.

It's open.

-What's all this? -Hello.

Sorry for the late-night intrusion.

Welcome.

This is how we live.

It's nice and cozy.

It's just as I imagined.

Would you like some water? Or honey water?

Water is fine.

You didn't have to. Is this why you were late?

No wonder it took you ages.

-I couldn't come empty-handed. -Of course you can.

This is a lot to carry.

U-ram, what do you think these are for?

Snacking.

Would it simply be just snacks?

Minus the ice cream.

All food has its purpose.

I doubt they will help you lose weight.

I get it. They're for emergencies.

-No? -You're right.

Why would we need an emergency food supply?

For emergencies like earthquakes and other things.

You're right. Does that mean we shouldn't eat these?

No, go ahead.

I'd like some ice cream.

What should I start with?

The kids only had some fried chicken for dinner, you see.

-It's a good thing I came by then. -Yes.

-We have an unoccupied study. -Should I come by every day?

Yes.

What kind of daughter-in-law do you want?

You know I'm the one getting married, right?

Since you're in your mid-thirties,

eight years your junior would be perfect.

Women over 25 used to be considered old.

Backgrounds are just as important.

Did she major in mass communication?

-Yes. -Any siblings?

-An only child. -So she's the only daughter?

-Right. -Her parents must be young.

They passed away.

-Both of them? -Yes.

This is why one needs to be off to a good start.

Your future sister-in-law lost both her parents too.

But it's possible since their youngest daughter is 50.

Why did they pass away so early?

Her father died in a car accident when she was young

and her mother died recently.

Goodness. She must still be grieving.

It's just her now, so you should hurry with the wedding.

Is she willing to move in?

If you guys allow it.

We'd be more than grateful.

Let us meet her tomorrow if possible.

Wait, I have dinner plans.

Would breakfast be too difficult?

You have your flaws, Dad. No one's perfect.

Of course.

-Is something wrong? -Only by conventional standards.

Don't tell me she's old.

-She is! -She's beautiful though.

As if that matters.

You're one to talk.

Would you have married Mom if she were ugly?

-How old is she? -She's Ga-bin's age.

I see that you're a fool.

Nam Ga-bin's age is why I disapproved of her.

-But you still accepted her. -So you want me to once again?

Over my dead body.

No wonder you weren't confident enough to bring her home.

Damn it.

She has a daughter.

And she is Ms. Lee's co-worker.

They're friends.

What did you just say? She has a child?

She starts middle school.

Is she a divorcée or a widow?

A divorcée.

You're both out of your minds.

Does your brother know?

-Yes. -You played me then.

-It's not like that. -How is it not?

You're both helping the other get married

making me a fool in the process.

I thought you'd understand.

-As if! -That's her only flaw.

It's not just a flaw.

It disqualifies her.

I'm marrying her no matter what.

You know how I am.

And you know me as well.

Do as you please and I'll do the same.

What will our employees think?

What about your mother? She has so many expectations.

What will she say when she hears you're marrying a 41-year-old divorcée

with a kid?

That's how life is.

There are more things we can't control.

Mom told me that many times.

This isn't what I planned.

It's not like I wanted to fall for a divorcée in her forties.

-Don't talk your way out of this. -That's not it.

I'm persuading you.

Kids cause trouble at least once in life.

-Says who? -It's what I heard.

Not even you were the perfect son.

-I was more than-- -I'm the one marrying.

Why do you and Mom need to like her when it's me who's marrying her?

Besides, age is only a number these days.

Money can buy one's youth back.

All the money your mother spent didn't turn her 20 again.

There will only be one outcome, so just accept it.

Sleep early. I'd hate to see you in a bad shape tomorrow.

-As if I could sleep. -I haven't been married before,

but I dated enough women.

More than I can count.

I now want to settle down with the right woman.

There's nothing "right" about her.

Her name's Sa Pi-young.

I don't care what her name is. There's no way I'd approve of her.

You'll give your mother a heart attack!

Over this little thing?

Have you forgotten how she gave birth to you?

She had to go through ten hours of contractions.

It's the same for any first child.

Besides, children bring enough joy to parents

in their first ten years

although terrible twos and hateful eights are a thing.

I believe that I have given you two more joy than you could ask for.

Don't you agree?

All I did to upset you was marry late.

I would've loved to have fallen for someone young too,

but it's a twist of fate.

What can I do when my heart and soul yearn for Sa Pi-young?

-You brat! -Dad!

Our employees will think less of you.

Is this how you betray us after how we raised you?

Don't we all at least betray one person in our lives?

Take you for example. You betrayed Ban and his mother.

So accept this reality and don't lose sleep over it.

There's no way you could logically persuade me anyway.

Your wife is arriving soon.

That sobered me up.

Being tipsy would help you sleep better.

It's not easy to sleep somewhere that's not home.

I'm happy, that's all.

Half of the fried chicken was barely enough, so thank you.

You should enjoy late-night snacks from time to time.

It's unhealthy.

-It's a stress reliever. -Exactly.

You had at least two-thirds of the chicken.

Whatever. It hardly filled me.

Kids, brush your teeth.

You can use a new toothbrush.

It's not like I can give you my pajamas.

That's all right. Sleeping in my clothes for one night won't kill me.

I'll head home early and change into fresh clothes.

Can't I get a tour of the house before I sleep?

What you see is everything. Are you sure you're not tired?

I'll probably sleep well

but I don't want to.

Then, don't. We can talk all night.

-Sure. -Tomorrow's not the weekend.

-You have classes. -I guess I can't skip them.

Missing a few classes won't kill you,

but you will regret it.

But no regrets will come from going to class.

-Sure. -Tonight's been a blast.

Then I'm glad.

I was worried I'd be intruding.

You're part of the family now.

Thank you for thinking that way.

It's true though.

Did your mom tell you that we'll be shopping for furniture?

Yes.

Pick what you want. Your rooms are fairly big.

That's enough.

But leftovers are a sin.

It's okay in my household. Actually, you're praised for it.

Sure.

Mom, the house feels whole again.

I came by.

-Sorry to intrude so late. -As if.

We hardly consider this as late.

He fell asleep after his bath.

-Did you see a movie? -We went to a sauna.

I don't get why people like them.

We agreed to get back together.

Really?

One thing led to another, and sparks went off again.

This just seems right no matter how I think about it.

You made the right call.

Hold on a second. We should pop a bottle of champagne.

Please. You'll wake the baby.

I'll make sure it only gently bubbles over.

Thank you, Hye-ryung.

We promise to do right by you two.

He won't disappoint you ever again.

You brat.

That reminds me. How is Bada doing?

She's pregnant again.

It's odd, you know.

She's always quiet and alone, but she's pregnant again.

It's true what they say about the shy ones being more brazen.

Anyway, I hope you go back to cherishing one another.

Sure thing.

Why aren't you asleep?

-Are you here for Danchu? -Yes.

Go to bed. It's not going anywhere.

-Are you going to sleep out here? -Yes.

Puppies cry when left alone.

You'll sleep out here every day?

-For the time being. -We'll take turns.

You'll roll off the couch.

No way. At this age?

Besides, it wouldn't even hurt.

This brings back memories.

Back when I first started elementary school,

my dad got me a puppy.

The Yorkshire Terrier in your photos?

Yes, her name was Mimi.

My dad was the one who slept on the couch.

I came outside after waking up one morning…

We had a fireplace, you see.

Mimi must have found our house relaxing and warm

because I saw her sleeping on her back with her legs out straight.

If I had a phone that could take photos, I would have taken one.

-Grandpa must have loved dogs too. -He did.

I don't get people who don't like dogs.

Isn't it cute? Look at its angelic eyes.

Director Seo seems nice.

Because he bought you a dog?

No, I just get that vibe from him.

He gets along with us well.

If my father were alive,

he would have adored you.

I miss my mom…

and also my dad.

Live a long life, Mom.

Don't make me miss you.

It's sad to miss someone.

You're proof of it.

Yes?

The chairman invited you to breakfast at the hotel in Gangnam.

He already left.

Got it.

Sa Pi-young…

If you marry that single mother,

you will be left with nothing.

I will donate my wealth to society.

Go ahead. Thanks to being born with a diamond spoon in my mouth,

you and Grandpa gave me a privileged life.

It's time for a humble one.

Enjoy your life with Mom

and don't expect to see your grandchild when we have one.

But she's over 40.

That doesn't mean she's infertile.

Geriatric pregnancies aren't that dangerous anymore.

Just look at celebrities. Better nutrition does wonders.

Like I said yesterday,

I have brought you two more than enough joy.

Take a trip down memory lane every time you miss your grandchild.

Don't you feel bad for your mom?

Why should I?

She has a husband, a son,

plenty of money, and jewelry.

Being with you gave her a life of luxury.

Have you forgotten how she raised you?

She drove you around personally and cared for you with love.

And she should be glad I didn't go down any wrong paths.

I haven't told her yet to spare her the shock.

She'll know that some things can't go her way.

Besides, it's better to face the music early.

You brat. I may be able to take it, but…

Have your coffee. You don't want indigestion.

As if I could enjoy it.

They say that it's wrong to try and change a spouse

to fit your needs.

At least that's what experts say on TV.

Accept them for who they are.

The same goes for your kids.

Great parents accept and support them for who they are.

This is nothing compared to all that you've been through.

You should wake Mr. Seo up.

Sure.

-Are you up? -Yes.

Breakfast is ready.

Good morning.

Hi.

Did you sleep well?

-Yes. How about you? -Breakfast is ready.

I'll brush my teeth first.

We keep it simple for breakfast. Less than three side dishes.

That's more than enough. Actually, it's perfect.

-I'll enjoy this. -Me too.

Sure thing.

I find the soup refreshing,

but was it cooked because of me?

Hyang-gi and I like pollack soup as well.

Since it has such a mild flavor,

they've enjoyed it since they were young.

I'm having a proper breakfast for the first time.

-Was this fried? -Yes.

Isn't it good?

-It is. -It's my favorite.

You have over ten favorite dishes.

I bet the smell of fish wasn't that pleasant.

It was nice to wake up to the smell of food.

It made waking up even easier.

Is this beet?

JI-A IMAGE FILE

Jeong-bin.

You'll soon get a mother.

A stepmother.

I hope she doesn't change her mind.

I don't know how, but sparks flew again.

Unbelievable. It's something that doesn't easily happen.

-Could it be… -What?

Sa-hyeon, I mean.

Too big of a shock

could confuse one mentally.

-Oh, please. -That wouldn't be the case, right?

I'm worried they'd lose interest in one another again.

Why did you bring so much?

This is the last time I'm bringing you food.

Here's your kimchi.

Have a seat.

The kids won't be leaving me.

That's only what you want. The children--

They agreed to stay with me.

From now on, you are not to make suggestions like that to them

without discussing it with me first.

You can meet with them since you're entitled to that.

But they're busy studying and working part-time,

so keep it to a minimum.

Must Hyang-gi work when you're marrying a wealthy man?

She's gaining life experience.

She has come to learn that young people should endure some hardship.

Earning money has taught her many things.

Don't make them worry about you for any reason.

-And enough with the pity party. -Pity party?

Carrying yourself in a way that makes the children worry

is by definition a pity party.

Be cheerful around them.

Don't tell me what to do.

Just have a good life, why don't you?

Unless you provoke the children, I wouldn't have to.

Enjoying the privilege, are you?

Stealing is fun, isn't it?

How is this stealing?

Are you saying I stole this coat?

You're enjoying the taste of money.

Why should I dislike it? Ban is good to me and the children.

How is that wrong?

The side dishes should be put in the fridge.

Do you really love this man?

As if you need to ask. Don't you know me at all?

Hello?

Cutie, what were you up to?

You're getting cheekier.

Be cheeky with me too. That'll even things out.

Aren't you busy?

I still have time to talk to you.

Have you been to Ban's townhouse?

I haven't had the chance. Why?

I thought we could live there.

-With the family? -No.

The complex has an available unit.

-Hello? -I'm here.

I can always look for something else.

Have you told your parents?

Yes.

They don't want to see me, am I right?

That's not it. This is more about Ji-a.

It'd be difficult for her to live with the elderly.

We'll talk later. Are you getting off late?

-No. I'll text you when I'm done. -Okay.

So what were you up to?

My boss summoned me.

-Hello. -Hi.

He wanted to see Danchu.

It won't stay put, you know. And it gnaws at my heel.

Danchu!

I've never seen a puppy before. It's adorable.

I wish we had one too.

Mr. Seo will get you one.

My mom won't approve.

My mom was against it too, but this is her last week working,

so she has time for it now.

Isn't your mom quitting her job too?

-Yes. -See?

Hyang-gi should see this. Hold it for me.

Let me see.

Again.

-But you look pretty. -No, take another one.

Hywang-gi wanted you to add this to your skin-care routine.

No way. I got one for you as well.

Did you buy it for me? Let's hope this makes us look younger.

We'll need all the help for the big day.

Not everyone gets to marry, but we're doing it twice.

Let's hope it's our last.

Hey, Hye-ryung's here.

I see you're already settled in.

Join us already.

After a quick shower.

I won't be able to attend your weddings.

Because of a gig?

I'm getting married.

-My gosh. -With whom?

I heard that it's bad luck to attend weddings before your big day.

What's up with us?

-We're all remarrying at the same time. -Tell me about it.

Tell us more. Is he also someone younger?

He's someone you know.

Is it Kim Min-bae?

-No. -Yoo Hoe-seok?

It's Sa-hyeon.

But you weren't interested.

I know.

I guess it's hard to get a grip on people's feelings.

I'm happy for you.

The baby's adorable.

Are you getting back together with him to be a mom?

That's one of the reasons.

What if she gets pregnant with her own child?

This goes to show that they're meant to be.

Hye-ryung's the only one getting back together with her ex.

By the way, my future brother-in-law is head over heels for you.

The same can be said about Mr. Seo. His affection for you runs deep.

Happy, aren't you?

Love is like a rainbow.

The colors shift depending on the person.

My feelings for Ban aren't like what I felt for Hae-ryun.

Same here.

What about him do you like the most?

The fact that he can be dominating.

That's something considering how you are.

Yes?

What did you just say?

Quickly. To the hospital.

Yes, Ms. Choi.

Sir!

It's about your wife.

What is it?

She passed away.

Passed away?

Ms. Choi couldn't bring herself to tell you.

Oh, no.

My gosh.

Why did the doctor leave so soon?

EMERGENCY MEDICAL CENTER

911 RESCUE

How far out are you?

There's traffic, so 20 minutes.

We should at least operate. Did you tell them to prep?

I told them to prep the OR, but…

This seems like a bridal shower.

I know. The matching gowns say it all.

Should I ask Hyang-gi to bring us some clothes?

-Come on. She'd secretly laugh at us. -She wouldn't.

We should take a photo.

Wearing this?

Who cares when it's just for us to see?

I once spent the night here at this hotel.

It dawned on me

that I should never be arrogant.

You're hardly like that.

To be honest, I felt superior to others.

Or something like that.

My life seemed better and happier than others.

It all worked out for the best and a new sense of happiness awaits you.

The same can be said about you too.

It's as the old saying goes.

You two hit the jackpot.

My future brother-in-law

calls her Cutie.

Goodness.

He's not wrong, I guess.

Ban came by the house last night

and asked to stay over.

-Goodness. -Don't get any funny ideas.

Funny ideas as in what?

I shouldn't have said anything.

Si-eun, how many bases have you touched with him?

What bases?

DIRECTOR SEO

MR. SEO

-It's Dong-ma. -It's Ban.

I'm jealous.

-Hey. -Hello?

Oh, no.

I'm with Pi-young at the moment.

Don't you need us there?

All right.

Sure.

Did something happen?

Are you sick, Mother?

No.

-What time is it? -It's 7:30 a.m.

Have some of this.

-What is it? -Supplements.

You seem tired lately.

You should take these.

Do I seem tired to you?

You have your age to consider.

How old do I look?

Mid-fifties.

All right. I'll take it.

-And don't skip breakfast. -I won't.

I spent too much time last night watching videos online.

Only the dead keeps suffering.

Won hasn't been gone that long, you know.

I know. Didn't it seem like his world had come to an end?

Ga-bin, did we all choose the wrong man?

Not me. I'm the one who left him, remember?

I'm going to keep my distance from men now

and concentrate on my career.

That's easier said than done.

Men throw themselves at you.

It's all futile.

-It's Boo Hye-ryung. -Is she calling to brag?

Hello?

It's Boo Hye-ryung. Have you been well?

Yes, hello.

It's been a while.

-Right. -Could you perhaps spare me some time?

I'd like to see you and perhaps ask for a favor.

-A favor to ask me? -Yes.

When should it be?

I'm getting married, you see.

My ex-husband and I are back together.

I see.

You were the only person I could think of.

But I'm sure you know many other singers.

I do, but I'd love for you to sing at our wedding.

Would you do it?

Ga-bin, it's absurd.

Song Won will be turning in her grave.

I know.

Declining is the right thing to do, but I couldn't bring myself to say it.

Call her right now and decline.

That'd be wrong.

Explain how you know Won to Jeong-bin's grandmother

and turn down the offer.

I'll sing at the wedding for Jeong-bin's sake.

What does this have to do with him?

In hopes that she'll be a good mother to him.

As if that's possible. She's a menace.

If I do this, I'll be able to stop by from time to time

and check up on him.

Whatever.

Let me call you back. I'm getting a call.

-Damn it! -My goodness!

Please make me look younger.

Sure thing.

I need to look good in the photo.

You already have handsome features.

Is that so?

I asked my brother to get his makeup done.

No amount of makeup could lighten his dark complexion.

The brothers must have different skin tones.

He loves to golf outside, you see.

Not only does he run the club, but he's also in love with the sport.

Sunscreen goes a long way.

That's not easy for men, you see.

If you will allow me again

If I could see you again

From my past memories

From the pain

I call for you

You are

You are

With eyes only for you

Without a sound

I call for you

You are

I never even got to call you my daughter-in-law.

You weren't even able to close your eyes.

You are

You're my delight of all

You will forever be my love

I now know what love truly is

and what it really feels like.

Please be by my side

If you still love me

Tears brimming in my eyes

Yearn for you

I love you

You are

You are

What stays the same

Is my love for you

With the drive, it's all about loosening up.

At the address position, loosen your grip,

and wind back.

Then feel the weight of the head

and swing by rotating your shoulders.

It's not easy to pick this up at this age.

Easier said than done, right?

But you've gotten much better.

Keep following my lead and you'll soon get the hang of it.

I know you're saying that to lift up my spirits

but I already feel like I'm doing better.

Take what I just taught you and take another swing.

Sure. Okay, let's loosen up.

Gosh, what a day.

Jeong-bin's 100th-day party during the day and a wedding in the evening.

Jeong-bin didn't cry

nor did he make a fuss.

The boy's sociable.

He'll have great social skills.

It's their second honeymoon,

so maybe we should take Jeong-bin and stay in Daejeon for a while.

When Hye-ryung only has eyes for Jeong-bin these days?

You think?

If it weren't for him, they wouldn't have remarried.

He's a lucky one.

I wonder if they're at the airport.

Goodness. Hello.

Yes, hello.

Were you here to practice?

Yes, despite my age, I only just got started.

-After you. -Sure. Thank you.

It's not late for you at all.

Men are muscular and athletic, so they learn quickly.

It's not as easy as I thought.

-Have you been out on the field? -Not yet.

It's the best sport ever. And you can keep doing at old age.

Exactly. People around me have been recommending it.

-No, allow me. -Goodness.

I appreciate it.

I bet you've fully digested the dinner you had.

-I have. -How about a late-night snack then?

Golfing has made me hungry and my legs are like jelly.

Restaurants and diners are closed at this hour,

so how about a Japanese bar?

There's one on the first floor.

-Assorted skewers and an egg roll, please. -Got it.

This is new. This is my first time at a Japanese bar.

-Would it be all right to have a drink? -Of course.

Excuse me.

Wait.

I'll have a glass too and call for a driver.

Sure.

Sake goes down well, doesn't it?

It does.

I was in Singapore for a few months to visit a friend.

I see.

Anyway, I heard about you. Did you end up marrying her?

No, it didn't work out.

Why not?

I was a fool and got caught up in the moment.

But it's useless to regret.

Ask for your ex-wife's forgiveness then.

-I did. -Didn't it work?

-It didn't. -Once won't do the trick.

Only a sincere apology will get her to change her mind--

She's marrying someone else.

-Someone else? -Yes.

Not you, but her?

That's right.

Didn't you hear the news?

Yu-sin and Pi-young are divorced too,

so I had no one to hear the news from.

Who is she marrying?

She met someone decent.

How decent?

A bachelor around her age.

What a catch.

And the kids?

Kids are usually against their moms remarrying.

They're fond of the idea.

HE'S BEEN KICKED TO THE CURB

Can you ask Dong-ma to come down?

Yes, sir.

She never got to see Dong-ma marry

or hold her grandchild.

He's taking a shower.

Should I serve a snack?

Are you done sorting out her belongings?

Not yet, sir.

So do you know what I did?

You know, I'm not comfortable with you being formal with me.

Should I speak casually then?

I'm exactly eight years your junior. Let me call you Ms. Kim.

Ms. Kim?

-Did I cross a line? -Of course not.

No one would think that you're older than me though.

I hear that a lot.

Then call me by my name.

How could I possibly just call you by your name?

It'll be Mr. Park instead.

As you please.

Cheers.

I'll speak casually from here on out.

Go ahead. We're all getting old anyway.

You're hardly "old."

You're even more stylish than women half your age.

So where were we?

Your housekeeper quit

and your hair stood up on the back of your head.

Oh, right.

So on the day I moved in with Yu-sin and his family,

I set up a table of food as if it were for an ancestral rite

and told him to sit if he were there.

And?

Well, I got this chill

and a shiver ran down my spine.

You're giving me goosebumps.

I'll stop then. It's not even a pleasant story to tell.

I see we only talked about me today.

Oh, come on. I lost track of time listening to you talk.

My friends do say that I tell stories well.

Thanks to you, I was able to laugh again.

Call me whenever you need company.

It beats staring at a wall alone.

-Can I? -Of course.

By the way, who is your ex-wife marrying?

I don't want to talk about it.

Then don't.

I'll be watching her.

Just be a man and wish her well.

I guess you didn't know that men get jealous more easily.

What can you do when you caused this mess?

-It's water under the bridge. -The ship has already sailed.

It's about to.

Then wave it goodbye.

You and her are done.

Goodbye. Sayonara.

-Are you the driver? -Yes, sir.

-Please escort her home safely. -Of course.

Hello?

Over here.

I'll get going then.

It'll be on me next time. Thanks for today.

I had fun too.

Wait.

I see you cut your hair. I knew something was different.

Don't depend on alcohol to help you sleep.

That's not why I'm drinking.

Once the 49-day memorial rite is over,

get married.

What's there to life, right?

All we need

is for every day to be meaningful and happy.

Why aren't you answering?

Okay.

It still hasn't dawned on me.

From our bedroom

and from upstairs…

I feel like she'll show up at any second.

Leaving me is one thing,

but how could she leave you behind as well?

Nice, isn't it?

Jeong-bin.

When will you call me Mom?

Sweet dreams, my baby

In the front yard And up the hill behind us

Even birds and baby sheep

Can I get you anything?

Americanos, please.

Have a seat.

This is my father.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

I hear you have a daughter.

-Yes, sir. -I thought you'd bring her too.

This is a difficult situation.

Hardly.

Is lunch being prepared?

Yes, sir.

What happened was unexpected,

and I'm still out of it.

Anyway, the living must go on with their lives.

I told him he could marry you once the memorial rite was over.

Please speak casually to me.

I'm aware that I lack in many ways.

No one's perfect.

Did you stay up all night again?

I got some shut-eye.

Do you indulge in any sports?

I sometimes play golf

and I've started doing Pilates recently.

-I hear that's good for you. -Right.

Nothing trumps good health.

Have you been able to eat anything?

Well, I eat when I can.

But sometimes, I skip meals.

What does he like?

Noodles.

I can't make that for him since it's not healthy.

Right, but it's like children who get drawn to junk food.

I know it isn't good for me.

If you don't have an appetite,

having small portions of naturally-flavored ice cream might help.

There's protein, so it's nutritiously balanced.

Skipping meals even leaves people our age lethargic.

Do we have any?

I don't usually have snacks, you see.

She bought some for us.

Can you get us some gelato? Dad will have some too.

Sure.

There is vanilla, pistachio, mango, and green tea.

Anything will do.

Let me serve it.

Have some coffee first.

Ji-a!

Hey.

Off to classes on a Sunday?

The library with some friends.

I see. Is your Mom home?

She isn't.

Gosh, I should've called first.

-What about the housekeeper? -She's home.

This is to congratulate you on starting middle school.

-Thank you. -It's a bag.

I'll make good use of it.

Let me leave it upstairs then.

Sure.

Wait.

Your dad misses you, you know.

You haven't seen him since the ski trip.

I bet you're busy though.

I'm afraid so.

Of course. I'll let him down gently.

I'll text Pi-young myself.

-Sure. -Did she go golfing?

No, to meet her future in-law.

Her future in-law?

Gosh, what's with the dog?

-What's its name? -It's Danchu.

Was it adopted?

I think it was a gift.

It's adorable!

Is someone in the family getting married?

You should ask her yourself.

It's cool and refreshing.

It'll pick up your energy.

Which flavor do you like the most?

This one.

That'd be pistachio.

-Pistachio? -Yes.

Pistachio has a great nutritional value.

It lowers cholesterol as well.

I'm the one with the medical license, but you seem to know a lot more.

Dong-ma mentioned how impressive you are.

And I agree.

Oh, please.

Anyway, Stay for dinner.

Sure.

Ask Ban over too.

-With his fiancée? -Yes.

Hello?

Ji-a, I heard that your mom went to see her future in-laws.

When does she get back?

Before dinner.

Got it. Have a good day then.

Sure.

Is Pi-young getting married?

It's not like she has a child to marry off.

She's still relatively young.

But how did she find someone so fast?

-Hello? -How's golfing today?

Is that why you called?

To see if I was on form today?

You see…

-No, we'll talk later. -Sure.

If it's true,

Yu-sin won't have to feel guilty when it comes to Ji-a anymore.

Ji-a suggested that they send Danchu over to your brother

even though she loves it.

So that it could bring him comfort?

Yes. She truly is considerate for her age.

Maybe we should buy something.

Does your father like plants?

They have everything at that place.

When did you last visit?

Once, a long time ago when he lived in a house.

Then it'd be wrong of us to go empty-handed.

It's better than buying what he doesn't need.

He hates things going to waste.

I had no idea townhouses could be this big.

You can imagine how lonely it'll get for him

even if he has hired help.

They don't live here.

They commute from apartment units nearby.

The way she looks tells me she's just as sweet on the inside.

She is.

Do as she says once you marry.

-Got it. -People will secretly laugh

when they hear you calling me Dad at 40.

Especially in front of Hyang-gi and U-ram.

They're well-behaved and polite.

Call to see if they left.

I'm sure they have.

I'll try them.

-It's your first time here, isn't it? -Yes.

Please have a seat.

I bought these just in case you'd like some.

They're baked sweet potatoes.

Right. It's been a while since I had any.

Can you not digest them well?

That's not it.

Have you been able to sleep?

I wake up at night.

I doubt words of comfort would be of any help.

This looks delicious.

He has no appetite, so hasn't been eating well.

I figured.

Should I serve mulkimchi?

We'll ask him.

Isn't it dry? Would you like some mulkimchi?

I enjoy sweet potatoes as they are.

The house I grew up in had a fireplace,

so we'd grill some from time to time.

Our house in Hannam-dong has one as well.

How do you feel about moving in and living together?

-I would love to. -Me too.

Have a safe trip home, madam.

Sure thing.

-I don't feel well. -In what way?

I'm nauseous and dizzy.

I suddenly had a craving for bibimbap.

I think I'm right.

Even her palate has changed.

Say it before I turn my car around.

Mr. Kim, to Ji-a's.

A child would be delighted to have a young and healthy mother.

-My lady, your breakfast is served. -But it's not even my birthday.

Take it as a token of my love and gratitude.

Yu-sin, come quick. Something's wrong with Mother.

I'm Seo Dong-ma, Pi-young's fiancé.

Talk about an entwined fate.

No way. Reality can be more dramatic at times.

-I guess it's game over. -What game?

Tell her not to call her father back.

Got it.

Ji-a, is your phone off?

Is it true that you're getting married?

-Yes. -With whom?
