(Episode 15)

Ba Da, why aren't we meeting at the office?

Is something up?

- No way.
- She just slapped the other woman.

- Did you see that?
- That's brutal.

Get up.

Must I explain why I slapped you?

Sit.

I apologize for the commotion.

Can you get us another cup?
Someone else will be joining us.

What's up? You said it was urgent.

Hey, Eun Kang.

Sit over there.

Sit next to that tramp.

Is this the picture you painted?

Side by side, you make
quite the trashy couple.

How long has this been going on?

Did all the balloons you inflated...

suck the oxygen from your brain?

Did you see him as a balloon?

Is that why you had
your mouth all over him?

It's hilarious.

You called him your dear first balloon.

How dare you?

How dare you call another's
husband your balloon?

When it's worth only 20 cents?

My gosh. She slapped him as well.

Was it satisfying?

Did being called a balloon...

make you feel like you were on cloud nine?

A passionate night together...

suddenly made you a poet.

"You became my first balloon."

Is that why you dedicated
those words to him?

And you kept the letter
rather than ripping it apart.

You fool.

Even your flirting tactics are tacky.

Your first love?

So tell me.

Is that why you told me
about him by the sea...

while shedding tears just
so that he could hear you?

It still wasn't enough,

so you made a scene by
jumping in the water.

How did you keep it
together all this time...

when all you wanted to do was
get handsy with each other?

Being terrified of me finding out...

must've made it more intense.

Technically, I spiced up your relationship.

Was it good?

How was it to finally get what you desired?

Was it all that you dreamed of?

But I told you numerous times...

that he's not that good in bed.

Don't think about walking
away to save face.

As if you two rats have any dignity left.

Don't even move a step.

Would I have called you here...

if I hadn't been ready to breathe fire?

Not even I know how far I'll go.

You must've seen me as someone so gullible.

Allow me to warm up my mouth.

Using foul words...

have always seemed too vulgar for my taste,

but they're easily used by
women who have been cheated on.

They call the husband and
his mistress "skanks."

I didn't think I'd be able to say, either.

But now that I was cheated
on, it comes naturally to me.

From this moment on,
I will call you skanks.

Consider that your new name.

When I asked nicely the other day,

you lied to my face.

You played dumb and even showed tears.

You're also good at putting on shows.

The handkerchief...

You used it to clean off
the melted ice cream?

You spilled coffee in Sokcho?

You should've at least
gotten your stories straight!

Did you know...

she was carrying around the
photo you two took with Mi Poong?

What did you two do that night...

after sending me away to Sokcho?

According to Mi Poong,

you even wore my robe.

"Aunt Eun Kang smelled like you."

I bet you even wore my perfume.

You really are a piece of work.

How long have you been wanting my life?

Ever since we were
teenagers, I shared my food,

my clothes, and my purses.

Did you think the offer
was extended to my husband?

Is someone else's apple more appealing?

Does it taste better when it's stolen?

Oh, dear. But now you got caught.

Why are you crying? Does it hurt?

Where, exactly?

Where I slapped you?

I only slapped you once. Or was it twice?

Are you embarrassed?

I'm sorry I made you this way.

Stop her from putting on a show.

Do you want to be a good
girl in his presence?

That'll only get him slapped more.

- Ba Da...
- Shut it.

They say every woman has a gut feeling.

Did you think I didn't have one myself?

The signs that were presented before me?

It's not like I didn't see them.

I just chose to look past them.

Maybe it was because...

I was scared.

Because everything would
shatter once I confirm it.

I had to keep on trusting you
for our marriage to stay intact.

That was why I chose to sit on your crap.

I was too scared to see what was going on.

I didn't want to lose you.

I yielded to our friendship...

while you...

gave in to the temptation.

This tramp...

managed to wipe the floor with us.

I give you that.

The other instances I get,

but you went to see this tramp...

the night my mom went to the ICU.

Are you that into her?

To the point that it clouds your judgment?

So where do I go from here?

You must've had an idea.

Should I serve you on a platter...

after skinning you and chopping your bones?

Or should I chew you up
like I would a squid?

That question wasn't for you,
so don't bother answering me.

Those two should be socially buried.

They should be sued for adultery.

Exactly.

Ba Da, let's head out for now.

- We'll talk outside.
- Talk?

You've lost the right,
so shut it and listen.

I went to see a friend...

who was also hurt by her cheating husband.

She told me not to get divorced
since it'd only benefit you two.

- Exactly!
- Good for you.

Suing Eun Kang for adultery
will have you breathing down...

each other's necks.

After I'm compensated
physically and mentally,

I can choose when to divorce you...

since the ball's in my court.

- That's it!
- You tell them.

I don't have to divorce
you if I don't want to.

The guilty spouse who cheated...

has no right to file for a divorce.

It's how the law works in Korea.

Too bad, Eun Kang.

Wait all you want. He'll never be yours.

- Good for you.
- Exactly.

That's what she should do. Nicely done.

Once I sue you for adultery,

you'll have to answer to the court.

The trial will then finalize your sentence.

You'll forever be an adulterer...

and will be branded with a scarlet letter.

It'll be a stain that no
soap, shampoo, or detergent...

will wash away.

Or maybe you'll see it as a medal of honor.

He is who you desired, after all.

Congratulations on
receiving the medal, then.

The same goes for you.

You'll forever be known as the
pathetic excuse of a man...

who fooled around with his wife's friend.

But truthfully, I'm most curious about...

what you'll write in the refutation.

You teach students how to write essays.

In what way and with what fancy words...

will you elaborate on your current state?

The curiosity is killing me.

Are you going to write
about balloons again?

She should be sued and humiliated.

Absolutely.

Do you even have any money
to pay as compensation?

That's right.

I'm sure you saved up the money you got...

from running my errands.

The money one pays as compensation...

doesn't bring you much comfort though.

It's not even a large sum.

I hear it's mostly symbolic.

I may be broke and in
need of 10,000 dollars,

but I wouldn't take your dirty money.

And you. What should I do with you?

I could hang up a sign in
front of your clinic...

and humiliate you.

It could read, "The one who cheated
on his wife with her friend."

I know all your friends, remember?

Maybe I should text them all.

If you sue me for defamation,
I'll happily pay the fine.

I bet this is killing you.

It must be humiliating
to be publicly shamed.

But do adulterers have
any dignity left anyway?

- Ba Da...
- Don't say my name.

Hearing you say my name disgusts me.

It's all my fault, so yell at me instead.

Cha Won did nothing wrong.

It's cruel to treat him this way.
Let him go at least.

The anger must've built
up in my fingernails.

I said you'd get slapped
every time she put on a show.

What do you think about
her saying it's her fault?

Did she seduce you when
you weren't interested?

- Honey, please.
- Who do you mean by "honey?"

Who should answer you?

Ba Da, what I did was wrong.

- Let's get out of here for now.
- If you don't want to see blood,

you'll sit down.

If you don't want to see blood,

you'll sit down!

I intend on resolving this...

in a democratic and reasonable way.

We've been friends for 20 years.

Gosh.

They were friends for 20 years.
My goodness.

Because I care about the friendship we had,

I thought long and hard about how
all three of us could be happy.

And this is my conclusion.

They're here right on time.

It's a bonus.

It'd be a pity if we were the
only ones watching the show.

You're here.

What happened?

What's so urgent?

It doesn't look like a
nice restaurant either.

Why did you want to meet us here?

What?

What happened to your face?

How did this happen?

Did you hurt yourself?

I hit him.

What?

You hit him?

I asked you to come because
I thought you should know.

Your son cheated on me.

I'm guilty of not looking
after my husband and my friend,

so I didn't treat him too harshly.

What? What is she talking about?

She's talking in Korean,
but I can't understand.

Cha Won must have cheated on her.

What?

With whom?

With her. They're standing side by side.

What?

Is it true?

You jerk.

Father, please calm down.

You're a disgrace.

Why did you hit him?

Don't be so old-fashioned.

Hey. Are you out of your mind?

Something like this should be
dealt with quietly at home.

Why are you doing this in a crowded place?

Be quiet!

Would you like us to call the police?

You're outnumbered.

That's okay.

Thank you anyway.

I regret having to do this.

However,

I had no other choice.

I can't forgive them.

I didn't know how I'd act,
so I chose a public space.

I want to return...

your son.

Take him back.

- Good job!
- Good for you.

Will you hear her talk?

You want to return him after
living this long with him?

Are you acting ignorant just
because he cheated on you?

How ridiculous.

She's taking his side because he's her son.

- What did you say?
- Mom.

Return him?

My son is not an object.

Well, he's not human.

You should feel lucky I'm
returning him in one piece.

You should take him back.

Let's go home to talk.

I'll tell you...

the conclusion I reached.

As for dividing our assets and the alimony,

I wanted to play hard to get
and give him a difficult time.

But I came to the conclusion
that it wasn't worth my time,

rolling around in the
garbage with these two.

Since they want each other so desperately,

I won't be the third wheel.

Just because it flies
doesn't mean it's a bird,

and just because you can walk
doesn't mean you're human.

You're just a horny couple of cockroaches.

(Save)

I'll use this evidence...

whenever I need it.

Don't get on my nerves.

I'm done talking,

so I'll get going.

- Gosh.
- We applaud you.

We support you.

We'll be cheering you on.

Best of luck.

Don't ever go easy on them.

Be quiet!

Do you think this is a show?

- Mom.
- Not again.

I'm sorry.

It only happened once.

Only once?

What do you mean by that?

Do you need to do it ten
times in order to be guilty?

Or how about until you got sick of it?

You must be thirsty for more
since you only did it once.

You were thinking about
her while lying next to me.

You were probably anxious and agitated...

while you waited for me to go
somewhere on a business trip.

I bet it drove you crazy.

Did you not sleep with me because of her?

I was so clueless.

I thought it was because of my mom.

I even looked into medical help
because I thought you had issues.

But it was because of her.

You have it wrong.

She said you were her first love.

Did you two date before meeting me?

Never.

Before I met you,

I went for dinners and movies with women,

but they didn't mean anything.

They weren't anything special.

You're so pathetic. Stop it.

Why do you think I called
you out to a crowded cafe?

I didn't have the courage to
fight the two of you by myself.

Even if they were strangers,
I wanted to rely on them.

My husband is no longer on my side.

Only those who experience it will
understand what it feels like.

If it was with someone else,

I might have forgiven you once.

But...

she was my friend.

It was Eun Kang.

Are you happy turning friends into family?

Do we have to be family now?

You turned one of us into an adulterer,

and the other into a fool who
lost her husband to a friend.

You destroyed the two of us.

I filled out my section.

My writing was a mess
because my hand was shaking.

Fill out your half and meet me in court.

I'll be the one getting the
custody and parental rights.

You were proven disqualified
due to what you did.

No objections, right?

Do as you wish.

But we can't end it like this.

What about Mi Poong?

Don't you dare...

bring her up.

If you can't stand me,

let's stay apart for a little while.

Let's be rational and calm.

"Rational?"

You might be missing your rationality,

but I'm more rational than ever.

I'll take legal action
if you don't consent.

I have more than enough evidence.

Where are you going? You
don't have anywhere to go.

Did you know I don't have anywhere to go?

You don't have any savings...

since you're paying off your father's debt.

And work is a mess because
of all the returns.

You can't afford to get a new place.

Don't do this. Let's talk...

Don't touch me with your nasty hands!

You ripped my heart to pieces!
What is there to talk about?

The moment I saw the letter from her...

you decided to cherish
instead of ripping apart,

I had to take countless
calming drinks to calm down.

I'm trying to hang on because I can't die.

If I don't let you go,

you two will play the lead roles...

of a tragic love story.

That's why I'm throwing you away.

You ripped me apart and
made a fool out of me.

You'll have to pay for it.

You'll see.

I'll leave instead.

Your mother isn't well.
It's best you stay here.

Shut your mouth.

I'll take Mi Poong later.

I'll come back for the rest of
my stuff when you're not here.

See you in court.

The only reason I'm not killing you is...

because you're Mi Poong's dad.

Take off your ring.

Gosh, why did you come?
You'll be beaten to death.

Your father was here just a moment ago.

How dare you come in here?

I don't want to see you.

Get out right now!

- Please stop!
- Father!

Run away.

Nam Chul!

- Nam Chul!
- Father.

Please, Father. Let it go.

That's enough.

He's going on his knees
because he regrets it.

I bet his wife ill-treated him until now.

Let's hear him out first.

Hear what out?

There can't be an excuse
for having an affair!

He's a cockroach.

I'm sorry, Father.

I won't allow any divorces...

or affairs in this family!

No exceptions!

Get out right now!

Father.

Hurry up and go.

I'm at fault.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for hurting you.

My husband cheated on me,

but I don't have anyone to talk to.

I used to share everything with you.

I'm sorry.

What did I do so wrong to you?

Nothing, Ba Da.

- I'm sorry.
- I've known him for eight years,

but I've known you for 20.

What did you covet so much?

Did it feel like you
could become his wife...

and act as Mi Poong's mom?

Did you only see flaws between us?

Maybe you thought it'd be
okay to get in between.

But we have a child and years between us.

There's something you can't break
between us even if you meddle.

Go ahead and try living with him.

You were watching all along,

so I'm sure you'll do well.

You'll be able to humor him.

I'm letting him go because he's disgusting.

Go ahead and pick him
out from the garbage...

and make him yours forever.

They say you can never
fully understand someone.

It's not like you're a stranger.

You're Ba Da's friend.

How could you do that?

You two were closer than siblings.

Why didn't you think about
the damage it could bring?

This will end your life.

You've lost a good friend.

A different woman...

wouldn't be satisfied with just
disgracing you in the cafe.

You're not thinking of
staying with Cha Won, are you?

Don't even dream of it.

The family would never allow it.

Quit teaching Chun and Woon.

All right.

Why are you here?

What do you have left to
say after making this mess?

I'm sorry.

It won't end with an apology.

Be honest, you seduced
him first, didn't you?

I know my own son.

Cha Won can't do that himself.

That's not important now.

I thought they were too close.

People need distance.

She just trusted her
because they were friends.

I'll give you your tutoring fees
later, so just leave us for today.

Let me say goodbye to the children.

They're still at their academy. Just go.

Then I'll see you next time.

She's a funny one.

Does she have a loose screw?

Who does she think she is, coming here?

You should be clear that
she's not welcome here.

Seeing her gives me the chills.

She's deceptive and greedy.

I just told her to stop tutoring the kids.

How dare she come on to Cha Won?
Who does she think she is?

Maybe she took what we said seriously?

- What did we say?
- That we want her in our family.

Those were empty words so
we could order her around.

She took that seriously?

She's like Ba Da's errand girl.

Running around doing errands.

He could've picked a better
woman to have an affair with.

Cha Won doesn't know what's what.

She's got no class.

I really need to get a new car.

I parked the truck in an alley...

by your academy and waited so
you wouldn't be embarrassed.

Father, don't leave us.

I asked you to come and get me
so I could talk to you privately.

I heard the conversation between
you and Mom when we were camping.

I even met the other woman.

I'll study hard...

and won't fight with my sister.

Even if Mom lets you down,
please just be patient.

She's our mother.

I'm scared that grandfather will find out.

You'll get thrown out
of the house if he does.

I'm sorry, son.

I'll never let that happen.

My son.

It might be good to postpone moving out.

With the mood as it is,

we can't ask our in-laws to move in.

It would also be weird to
leave your parents alone.

All right.

We never got to date properly.

When your father introduced us,

we started cracking up
at each other's names.

I thought your name was
actually Sweet Potato.

It's not Potato. It's Geum Ah.

Ko Geum Ah.

You laughed at my name too.

"What kind of name is Ji Nam Chul?
Is he a magnet?"

If you're a sweet potato, I should be soda.

I didn't dislike you.

If I had,

I wouldn't have married you just
because your father told me to.

We got married without dating properly,

had children, and got old.

From now on, let's court and go on dates.

Let's start doing things, one at a time.

I'll try my best.

I'll make you as happy as I've pained you.

Before the kids find out,
let's fix our relationship.

Today's day one.

My nose is cold from
sleeping in the living room.

There's a draft.

Then you can sleep here.

I don't like hearing that
you'll try your best.

Geum Ah!

My goodness.

This is so nice.

Father, don't leave us.

This reminds me of the old days.

We used to meet every night, like this.

I used to sneak into your house
when you lived in Cheongdam-dong.

Those are all old memories now.

It must've been hard for
you after you got divorced.

What was your ex-wife like?

I think you know her too.

She used to work with me at the pub.

The girl who liked you
and followed you around.

I see.

Let me ask you one question.

I was with you at your studio...

and got dragged off by
my father to get married.

That night, I ran away and
came back to the studio,

but you weren't there.

We'd agreed to run away together.

What happened?

(18 years ago)

Who are you?

- What's going on?
- You punk, come with me!

Let go of me!

Let go, you punk!

Please, let me live.

Tell me honestly. Why did you run away?

I'll tell you later.

Geum Ah, I don't want to
think about anything now.

I'm not afraid of anything.

I'll just live, being by your side.

The only thing that hasn't
changed in my life...

is how I feel about you.

Goodness.

Where were you?

I felt a little queasy, so
I went out for an "affair."

I mean, I went out for some air.

I couldn't sleep because
the mood here is so bad.

Who knew Cha Won would cheat?

Who knew?

It's hard for you, right?

The hardest thing is causing
trouble for so many around me.

I feel sorry for my parents,

and I feel embarrassed.

I can't bear to lift my head...

because of what I've done.

The minute you're exposed,

it ends up being the most
disgraceful thing ever.

How did we end up in the same position?

No.

It could be different.
I don't know your situation.

Let me just talk about mine.

Honestly, I thought I'd never get caught.

And I hoped never to get caught.

That was so arrogant of me.

But once I did get caught,

I became trash who only
cared about his sex drive.

Someone who can't even
win against serotonin.

That's the kind of person I became.

As soon as I got caught and reality hit,

it was like being dropped
into another world.

It didn't even feel real.

I feel the same way.

What do you want to do?

I don't know.

I just want to close my eyes and disappear.

I never knew...

I was such a coward.

I'm sure your mind has gone blank...

since you were exposed before
you even made a decision.

If you hadn't gotten
caught and made a decision,

what do you think you would've decided?

I'm asking if you could've
asked Ba Da for a divorce.

In other words, was the thing
with Eun Kang a light affair,

or did you have real feelings?

I'm sure your situation
will be different from mine.

I never had a choice.

My kids decided my life.

Throughout my married life,

my children were my lighthouse.

All I could think about was
that I needed to protect her...

if I got caught.

Since all this has happened,

you should think about it rationally.

You have a family and a child.

Is this worth turning
your life upside down?

For men, marriage is connected
to their work and social lives.

You need to be sure you have the courage...

to change all of that.

I have a friend who married the
woman he had an affair with.

Whenever he drinks, it's clear
he's having a tough time.

His ex-wife got remarried too.

He can't turn anything back.

It seemed to me that he regretted it.

A moment of bliss,

for a lifetime of misery.

According to him, that's
the fate of someone...

who's had an affair.

I want you to be clear
about what you decide.

The milk's already been spilled.

Now everything rides on
how you resolve things.

What about you?

Have you wrapped up your feelings for her?

Me?

What if I haven't?

Is there another option for me?

(Court)

Mi Poong,

I have something to tell you.

You know how your mom
used to study in Italy?

She wants to study more...

so that's where she'll be going.

When will she come back?

In a month.

No, three.

You can wait for me, right?

Be a good girl for your dad...

and listen to your grandfather.

Is Aunt Eun Kang going with you?

No.

Then she can look after me.

Don't worry about me and go.

When I miss you too much,

I'll come and see you.

You can wait even if you
want to see me, right?

I can,

but I want to cry.

Tell her you can't do without her.

You should cry and stop her from leaving.

You're so childish, Dad.

I should hold it together
and let her study.

I can be all right without her.

Gosh, I'm lonely.

My children won't live
the way I want them to.

Someone famous said...

that golfing and your children
were the two things...

that you had no control over.

This must be giving you a headache.

Your son-in-law had an affair...

and so did your son.

Maybe your house emits that sort of energy.

It didn't seem like...

he was crazy for her.

It was a mistake,

and one can make up for it.

The son-in-law had an affair with
the bookkeeper at his company.

What about your son?

It was with his wife's friend.

My goodness.

Even among adulterers, he's the worst kind.

Are adulterers split into classes?

Almost everyone is.

They say life is fair, but that's nonsense.

He'll be seen as vermin.

At some times,

you can be so annoying.

Gosh, I'm lonely.

Women these days don't
forgive cheating husbands.

They divorce them immediately.

In this case,

the punk fooled around with her friend.

Sorry I called him that.

Then,

how can this be resolved?

Give some of your assets
to your daughter-in-law.

My assets?

Nothing appeases people more than money.

Then, you must go after the other woman.

Make her leave your son alone.

She should be sued as an adulterer...

so that she loses her appetite and sleep...

from all the trips to court.

Getting payback...

might appease your daughter-in-law.

I'd love to meet this other woman
that's causing all this trouble.

I wonder what she looks like.

This reminds me...

of Ba Da.

She took me to get a facial...

and a body massage.

That reminds me! My money.

Will I get it back if they divorce?

I'm sure Cha Won will take care of it.

But weren't you happy secretly
earning interest from her?

- That's...
- It's me.

What are you doing here?

- Did you call her over?
- What is it?

I received the money you wired.

Thanks, Geum Ah.

I only came by to thank you.

You're probably out of the
rags I got you last time.

And these...

are the hotel cookies
that you love, Ms. Na.

These are gifts for Chun and Woon.

As if you have the money
to afford all of this.

Besides, no one here welcomes you.

Seeing you makes us both uncomfortable.

You have been good to us,

and we have grown attached to you.

- But this isn't right.
- Aren't you uncomfortable...

seeing us?

It's not like we can laugh
or cry along with you.

It's just best not to see you.

Even though I want to say my piece,

I'm holding back...

since you've been good to us.

If you hadn't,

I would've crushed you.

It's too bad if this upsets you.

It's the money I borrowed.

I already paid the interest,
so it's just the principal.

I thought about wiring you the money,

but I figured it was my duty
as a debtor to thank you.

Thank you for lending me the money.

I didn't think I'd get it back,

but it feels nice to have it in my hands.

You should change your ways a bit.

You're too precise and
shrewd for your own good.

If only you could change
that about yourself.

No one goes through a long
life without making a mistake.

He's been the best husband
who made his first mistake,

but you caused a scene...

and humiliated him in front of a crowd.

Was it cathartic for you?

I'm sorry...

for not being generous enough
to look past a petty mistake.

Was that sarcasm?

Yes.

- Did you hear that?
- Mom,

no one changes their way overnight.

There's Mi Poong to consider.

I'm afraid my brain is at its limit.

My daughter's father and that
tramp of a friend fooling around...

is making it hard for me to see straight.

I bet you haven't experienced this before.

Nam Chul's affair was
probably hurtful enough,

but what if the woman was your friend?

She was a friend...

who has been a sister to me for 20 years.

Is letting her come in here as
if she's your daughter-in-law...

the right course of action?

Ba Da, there must be a misunderstanding.

We told her not to come,

but she came by because she felt guilty.

She won't be back. We
told her not to come back.

Why do you think I called
those skanks out...

and caused a scene in a public setting?

You let your temper get the best of you.

I felt like they taunted me,

and the betrayal...

had every organ inside my body trembling.

The anger was driving me crazy.

I couldn't sue Cha Won for cheating on me,

so there was nothing I could do.

That was why I wanted...

to make a mockery out of
them in the worst way.

Only that would help me breathe.

Not having dignity isn't
why I went that far.

I'm more of a public figure
than those two, aren't I?

That was my way of wanting to live.

If you find me at fault for
trying to breathe again,

sue me for slander...

or defamation.

Take care, then.

It's been a while.

Was it you who had them not call me in?

I was told not to come
to work for a few days.

It wasn't me.

Hold on.

You have a shadow cast
over your face, girl.

Your mother-in-law must've
given you an earful.

It's hard to like people
who are as prickly as you.

That's how you are.

Ma'am,

I'm sorry for my previous actions.

Take care.

What was that about?

The last thing I expected
was an apology from her.

Yes, the car is in pristine condition.

It hasn't been in an accident.

If the price is right,
I'll sell it right away.

Sure.

Ba Da.

Right. I'll meet you there.

Sure.

I came by to return something of Mother's.

Then...

It won't take long.

This is important.

I have nothing to say to you, though.

Ba Da,

I understand how you feel.

Cha Won is to blame for everything.

But can't you at least
reconsider the divorce?

It was a mistake.

I doubt he truly cared for her.

Ba Da, I promise you this.

I won't pressure you to have a son,

and the apartment unit
will be handed to you.

I don't know how much Cha Won has,

but I'll have him give you every penny.

He'll even write a memorandum.

Will that not be enough?

I'm sorry,

but we have already
submitted the divorce papers.

Already?

Did Cha Won agree to it?

Yes, we went to court together.

It's like this.

The divorce isn't finalized as
soon as you submit the papers.

I heard that it took
about three months, sir.

You have that time to change
your daughter-in-law's mind.

Make the other woman go crazy.

You should rectify...

the damage your son caused.

Of course, sir.

Gosh, that smells good.

Is that kimchi fried rice?

Is there some for me too?

Can you stop interfering with
other people's businesses?

It's not like you can take
responsibility for it.

Why would I need to when I
repeated what the law says?

I picked up on things as a taxi driver,

and now, I'm as good as a doctor or lawyer.

Have some before you go.

You haven't eaten anything for days.

Leave me be.

Have your meal at least.

I'll then get off your case.

How long will this continue?

What can I do when I still
have feelings for him?

Lower your voice. Dad will hear you.

Stop whatever you're feeling.

You should've taken your own advice.

At least I didn't fool around
with my friend's husband.

Give the money back to Mr. Ji.

This is considered stalking.

What?

Even when it's platonic, it's
still categorized as stalking.

Harboring feelings for
someone you can't have.

I know how it can drive one crazy.

But Mr. Ji chose his family in a heartbeat,

and he left you without turning back.

It's time you moved on too.

That's how you honor the person you loved.

I'm home.

Welcome home.

Everyone went to bed. At
least I should welcome you.

- You stayed late today.
- I had to clean the kitchen.

Thank you for your hard work.

Right. My brother-in-law
was going to give it to you,

but he was busy lately.

Here you go.

He must be busy with his affair.

My goodness.

My mom gets super happy...

whenever she gets money.

My goodness.

This is our new helper. Eun
Kang introduced her to us.

What are you talking about?

You better quit working for them.

Why? It's the perfect job for me.

The work is easy, and they pay me a lot.

I have my reasons.

If you keep working for them,

we might get into an
awkward situation later.

"An awkward situation?"

You never know.

It's a good thing. Just wait.

Where should I work now?

I'll look into it for you.

Dad. Here is some water.

There's a choir in here.

It gets so loud at night.

- What is this?
- Mom, don't eat while you sleep.

This is why she doesn't
have any real teeth left.

Her teeth cost us a fortune.

Ba Da came by earlier.

- I know.
- What should we do?

I heard you filed for divorce.

Yes.

Why didn't you stop her?
Why did you go with her?

Are you really planning to get divorced?

I want to do what she wants.

I'll do everything she asks of me.

Why play the good husband now?

Gosh, I'm so lonely.

Sit down.

Filing those documents doesn't
mean you're divorced right away.

Change her mind in the meantime.

If you don't, I'll disown you.

I promised to put this
house under Ba Da's name.

- This place?
- How much money do you have?

Give it all to Ba Da.

You should make up for your mistake.

You also wronged Ms. Cho.

You should compensate her as you see fit.

Let's settle it that way.

I'm very disappointed in you.

You were always so handsome and smart.

Aside from getting
married against our will,

you never caused problems for us.
What happened?

I heard they rated affairs by severity.

Cheating with your wife's
friend makes you an animal.

How could you make such a mistake?

It wasn't a mistake.

What?

What do you mean? Do you
mean you chose to do it?

Do you mean you two really love each other?

But you're the one who
founded the company...

and brought it up.

The person taking over
is also a nice person.

Please be good to them.

I'm sorry I couldn't look after
the factory until the end.

I'll become successful and
come back to buy it back.

Thank you for everything.

Good luck, Ba Da.

- Good luck, Ba Da.
- Good luck, Ba Da.

Please take a look around.

Hello?

The police are investigating,
so I'll wait for now.

I'll catch the culprit who made
the imitation no matter what.

Let's meet at the office
sometime soon. Bye.

Let's go, Mom.

It's not so nice since
I found it in a rush.

It's not so bad considering
it's a basement unit.

I'm worried about the mold, though.

I bought new bedding and pots.

I turned the heater on in advance.

Take a seat.

How dare they...

No, Mom. I already did it all.

If you get involved, it'll
really hurt my pride.

Just stay put.

Honey...

Mom. I'm okay.

It was my decision.

Go and cancel the divorce.

Don't let them go free.

We must torture them.

They'll be happy to get together.

Why would you let him go?

I don't want to waste my time on them.

I'm more precious than that.

Don't cry. I won't cry, either.

It will be true revenge when I succeed.

You trust me, don't you?

Father.

It's your daughter, Ba Da.

Something painful...

has happened.

Whenever I'm going through a rough patch,

I think about what you told me.

"If you live on,"

"you'll be able to get through it."

"Keep on pushing forward..."

"no matter what."

If I endure it,

good days will come. Right?

Please watch over me.

Mi Poong just had lunch,

and she fell asleep in Chun's room.

You can't even come in
because you feel guilty.

Why did you do that?

Ba Da visited.

- When?
- A few days ago.

She came to pay Mom back.

I thought her business wasn't going well.

I wonder where she found the money.

She went on about how she felt,
and it really broke my heart.

You're my brother, but
I can't take your side.

Ba Da doesn't have anyone.

All she has is her mother.

Her brother in the US
is less than a stranger.

She's almost like an orphan.

This will scar her for life.

It's up to you two whether
you get divorced or not,

but you should ask for her
forgiveness no matter what.

Please let Mi Poong sleep here tonight.

(Available for lease)

Ba Da. Honey.

(Available for lease)

The number you're calling...

has been temporarily
deactivated by the customer...

(Rommy Home Shopping)

She terminated her contract.

We haven't seen her in the last few days.

I also haven't been able to reach her.

I thought she was busy.
Did something happen?

No. Let's talk another time.

I haven't seen her lately,
and I can't reach her either.

Okay.

Did something happen to Ba Da?
Please tell me.

It has nothing to do with you.

I must know.

The way you sound offends me.

It's a family matter,
so please don't be nosy.

This is the last box.

You can take them all to the
storage I wrote down for you.

I appreciate your help.

- Thank you.
- Don't mention it.

I'll take off first.

Good night, Mr. Ji.

I happened to be in the neighborhood.

You can't even lie.

You have no reason to
be in this neighborhood.

You've gotten so thin.

You've gotten thinner than I have.

This is the only place
where we shared memories.

The only place we can look back.

Make sure you eat properly.

Don't starve because of a guy like me.

Just forget about me.

I'll be going now.

Wait.

Can I hold your hand just once?

I can tell by holding your hand.

Your feelings for me are gone.

Hate me,

and blame me.

I don't hate you.

I don't blame you.

Can you hold me, just once?

Just once.

For the last time.

I'm going.

Wait!

I have something to say!

Please hear me out!

Wait!

Mr. Ji.

Mr. Ji.

Mr. Ji!

Thank you for loving me.

I was happy.

That's what I wanted to say.

Stay healthy.

I'll do what you told me.

I'll eat properly...

and sleep properly.

Now that I've seen your face
for the last time, I'm fine.

Now I won't look for you.

But instead,

don't forget about me.

Promise me.

I told you I'd come to your
office with my daughter-in-law.

You didn't have to come.

Of course, I did.

I'll make sure there's a difference
for your daughters-in-law.

All right.

I trust you, Ms. Han.

You fired that employee, right?

Pardon?

- Yes, I did.
- Good.

She was dumb and bad at her job.

Why keep her around on a salary?

It's because you're too
good to people, Ms. Han.

Eun Kang, get me a towel?

Did something happen to Ba Da?

Mi Poong's father has been looking
all over for her with red eyes.

Call me.

(Ko Mul Sang)

(Red Balloon)

I'm sorry.

You can curse me for being
a foolish and cowardly man.

How did you know?

Did you follow me?

Get out!

Really?

Lead the way. I want to hear...

- from your parents.
- What?

How can you do this to someone?

Eun San didn't do it. It
must've been that guy.

You punk.

I'm sorry.

I'm scared and fearful,

but I want to know how this ends.

I want to see it through.
