Mr. Kang!

Mr. Kang!

Mr. Kang! Mr. Kang!

Na Hong Joo, talk to me.

I have nothing to talk about.

- Let go of her. - Get off.

That hurts.

What do you think you are doing?

What are you to butt in?

I'm going to marry this guy.

We're going to get married.

That's right, we are going to get married.

If you mess with her ever again from this moment,

I won't let you loose.

Na Hong Joo, I'll never give up on you. Okay?

Mr. Kang...

It's all right, now.

I'll watch out for you until you go home safely.

Go inside.

Mr. Kang, thank you.

Dad.

What are you doing? It's cold out.

I have something to ask you.

Okay.

Hold on.

You're my guardian angel who protects me.

Mr. Kang, thank you for today.

Was that text...

from Ms. Jang's aunt?

Yes, she just wanted to make sure I'm home safe.

Perhaps, are you two...

in a relationship?

No, we are not.

We just volunteer together at the church.

We are just getting to know each other.

- Is that it? - Yes, I'm sure.

Didn't I tell you?

I hope you'd find someone for yourself.

She seems like a nice person.

Do Ran.

Mr. Kang.

What are you doing out here? Is everything okay?

I was waiting for you.

Really?

Yes.

Let's go inside and eat dinner.

Okay, we'll go inside.

Okay.

Da Ya's aunt came to hang out with Grandma today?

Yes, she seems like she has a great personality.

She catered to her whim and became a good friend.

By the way, Da Ya's aunt calls Grandma,

"Geum Byung."

And Grandma calls her, "Chun Sim."

It's very funny.

I see. I can imagine.

It must not be easy.

She doesn't complain or look annoyed at all.

She's very thoughtful.

I see.

When is the family meeting for your sister?

What family meeting?

Do you mean, Mi Ran?

I meant Mr. Yang's sister, she is getting married.

When will your sister marry?

She doesn't seem to have a boyfriend.

Nor she has time to spare.

Is that so?

I'll go take a shower.

Okay.

Mi Ran?

Hey, Mi Ran.

Right now? What's going on?

What?

- Mi Ran. - Do Ran.

You are getting married?

What are you talking about?

Were you surprised?

Come on, are you serious?

What's going on? Are you really getting married?

Yes, Do Ran.

Who is he? How long have you been dating?

Is he really a decent man?

Do Ran. Ask one at a time.

Spit it out! Who is this guy?

Do you think I'm going to marry any random guy?

He is a dentist.

He is a nice man.

A dentist?

Is he really a good guy?

Yes, Mom also likes him.

Don't worry.

This is so abrupt that I'm surprised.

Congratulations, Kim Mi Ran.

By the way, Do Ran...

I'll have a family dinner day after tomorrow.

Can you come with Dae Ryook to the dinner?

Yes, of course.

I will come.

Thank you, Do Ran.

I was worried that you won't come because of Mom.

What are you saying?

Who'd go if I don't?

You shouldn't worry about such a thing.

Do Ran.

If I get married, I should leave Mom.

I know that Mom has done you wrong.

But she'll be all alone after I get married.

There's no Dad.

How will she live alone?

I'm so worried about her.

Mi Ran.

So, Do Ran...

Don't hate Mom too much.

She really upsets me.

All right.

Okay.

So don't worry.

And live happily, Mi Ran.

I wish for your happiness.

Do Ran...

Thank you.

Mi Ran, see you then.

Okay, Do Ran.

What? Is there something you want to say?

Actually...

Mom said not to tell you this.

But I thought I should tell you.

What is that?

Do Ran, the thing is...

Do Ran, where did you go?

I'm feeling a bit hungry. Do we have some snacks?

Why didn't you tell me...

that my mom came to visit?

That's... Do Ran.

You promised not to give her money behind me.

You promised you'd discuss with me.

Let me explain.

Did she visit you...

and ask for money?

That's...

My only sister-in-law is getting married,

so how can I stay still?

That's why I did it,

so don't be so mad.

I'm not mad.

I'm just so apologetic to you.

I'm ashamed too.

Do Ran, there's nothing to be sorry or ashamed.

Don't say that.

I'm your husband.

I can do that much for my sister-in-law.

I have a lot of money.

Still...

Still, I'm sorry.

Goodness, I told you. Don't say such a thing.

I wish I could do more.

That's my sincerity.

Thank you so much.

It's fine.

What? You told Do Ran...

that I received money from her husband?

Yes.

Why did you?

I told you to keep your mouth shut.

There's no secret in this world, Yang Ja.

She'd feel even more betrayed...

if she found out later.

And I felt so sorry I had to confess it...

when I saw her face.

What did she say?

Who is it?

Do Ran.

Yang Ja, Do Ran is here.

Hi, Do Ran.

Hi, Do Ran.

What brings you here at this hour?

Mom.

Is it right you received money from my husband?

Yes, I did. Are you here to nitpick at it?

I went to see him and told him to give...

a cash gift for his sister-in-law's wedding.

What's so wrong about it?

Mom, please use that money...

for Mi Ran's wedding,

not for something meaningless.

My husband gave you that money...

so that Mi Ran lives a happy marriage life...

without getting intimidated...

around her in-laws.

Oh, well. Of course.

Why would I use it for something else?

Mi Ran is getting married to a dentist,

so 50,000 dollars are...

not enough to be honest.

Mom.

Aren't I your daughter?

You didn't give birth to me,

but I'm still your daughter.

What?

Well, yes. You're my daughter.

Then...

can't you be considerate towards me too?

Put yourself on my shoe,

and imagine how my in-laws would think of me.

Director Wang is my husband,

but whenever you do this,

I feel so miserable and ashamed.

I'm sorry.

I'm human too.

Of course, I'm sorry and ashamed.

But I had no choice this time.

Mi Ran is getting married,

but we couldn't afford anything.

What if her in-laws give her a hard time...

for getting married for free?

So I went to see your husband.

I had no one else to ask for.

That's why I went to see him.

I won't do that again.

I'll rather choose to starve and die.

I'll rather kill myself.

I won't do that ever again.

Do Ran, I'm sorry.

Do Ran, I'm so sorry.

I'm truly sorry.

I'm sorry.

Do Ran...

Mom...

Why are you outside?

Did you wait for me?

Because you drove outside at this hour...

when you aren't used to driving yet.

Where did you go alone?

I went to my family's house...

to see my mother and my sister.

Why? Are they up to something?

No.

Dad, my sister is getting married.

Really?

Dong Chul's daughter is getting married?

With whom?

I hope it's someone nice.

He's a dentist.

Nice and hardworking.

A decent man.

His family adores my sister too.

Really? That's good to hear.

I'm happy for her.

So my husband and I...

are joining the family meeting in two days.

Of course, you should join.

Dad.

Seeing you wait for me outside like this...

and talking with you makes me feel much better.

I'm so happy to have you...

by my side.

Did something happen during your visit?

Nothing happened.

Hi, Director Wang.

I'm in front of the house.

I'll go right in. Bye.

- Let me go in first. - Hurry in.

Dong Chul's daughter is getting married?

They might need a lot of money then.

I want to help them with their wedding expenses.

Helping them directly might look strange.

If I ask Do Ran,

she'll definitely be against it.

I can't believe I'm having a dentist son-in-law.

Drop me off in front of that house.

Okay.

Who is it?

Isn't that Mr. Kang?

What did he put in my house's mailbox?

- Ma'am. - What?

- You forgot to pay. - Yes, sure.

Here, keep the change.

Okay. Thank you.

Wait, where did he go?

I'm sure it was him.

"To Kim Dong Chul's family".

What's this?

It's money.

"To Kim Dong Chul's family".

What's this?

Who put this here?

My gosh.

(To Kim Dong Chul's family)

"To Kim Dong Chul's family"...

(To Kim Dong Chul's family)

(To Kim Dong Chul's family)

They are all the same.

It's the same handwriting.

Does this mean Mr. Kang ran off with...

my husband's money?

I had no idea...

I won't let him get away with this.

What are you doing here?

Ms. Oh will complain if she sees you.

I'm not here to see Do Ran.

I'm here to see Mr. Kang.

Mr. Kang?

Yes, I need to see him.

Go and get him for me.

What for?

What is this about?

You don't need to know.

Just get Mr. Kang. Go on.

Okay.

Yes?

Mr. Kang. Mr. Kang.

What is it? Is something wrong?

No. Ms. Kim's mother is outside...

and she asked me to get you.

Go on outside.

Ms. Kim's mother is here?

To see me?

I don't know why, but she seemed anxious to fight.

Did you do something to her?

No, I didn't.

- I'll go outside. - Okay.

What's going on?

No, silly me.

I should tell Ms. Kim first.

The house will be in an uproar if Ms. Oh hears.

No, no.

What's this about?

Are you the one who's been leaving cash in our mail?

It's you, you jerk.

How much did you take from Dong Chul?

How much did you take that you leave 500 dollars...

or 5,000 dollars like that?

I didn't do that.

As if it wasn't you.

Why have you been leaving us cash?

You're doing that because you did something wrong...

and you want to make up for it that way!

Hold on a second.

Let's talk about this somewhere else.

What are you afraid of?

How much did you borrow that the amount's so tiny?

And why are you...

hanging around Do Ran and freaking me out?

Let's talk somewhere else.

Hey, stop where you are. Stop. Stop!

Ms. Kim.

Your mother's outside the gate.

My mom's here?

The odd thing is, she wanted to see...

Mr. Kang, so I called him for her.

Something's not right.

Your mother seemed very angry.

- My mom? - Something's off.

You should go and check.

I won't be long.

- I'll start cooking. - Okay.

What's going on?

You're better off without a mom like that.

(Mom)

(Mr. Kang)

- There is no response... - What's going on?

You didn't borrow from Dong Chul?

Then why have you been leaving small amounts?

I wanted to pay Dong Chul back.

That's why.

To pay him back? For what?

I met Dong Chul in the army.

While there, he saved me from drowning once.

- To pay him back... - What nonsense.

You take me for a fool.

He saved your life then,

so why did you show up after he died to do this?

Do you think I don't know you're lying to...

get away with paying back less than you owe?

This won't do. Let's go to the police.

- To the police? Wait? - Yes.

- Mom, stop it. - What?

Mom, stop.

Do Ran, I'm glad you're here.

Do you know who this man is?

The man who's been leaving cash in our mailbox.

He took your dad's money and didn't pay him back.

It's not like that.

How can you say that? I have evidence.

He put an envelope in our mailbox...

and I saw it clearly with my two eyes.

Stop it, Mom. It's not like that.

Why isn't it like that?

I should just call the police.

Is that the police?

Stop it, Mom.

This man...

is my dad. He's my dad.

What?

What did you say?

- He's your dad? - Yes.

Mr. Kang is my dad.

My biological dad.

Are you...

Are you telling the truth?

Dad has been...

paying you to thank you for raising me.

So why are you treating him like a thief?

Wait. Hang on.

What's all this about?

Wait.

You...

I am...

guilty.

Out of guilt...

for not being able to raise Do Ran,

I just couldn't show myself.

That's why this happened.

You raised...

Do Ran so well and for that,

I thank you.

After I heard Dong Chul had died,

I thought you were struggling financially.

So I decided to help you...

as best I could from afar.

How could I forget that you raised Do Ran for me?

I did...

what I did because I didn't dare show myself.

If I made you feel uneasy,

I sincerely apologize.

Then you should've told me so.

Do you know how hard it was for us...

to support Do Ran too?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I had no other choice back then.

Mom, please stop.

Please.

Wait.

Was it you...

who paid off the loan sharks for me?

Yes, that was me.

How did you get the money to do that?

Ms. Cho said you asked to be paid in advance.

Was that what...

the money was for?

I didn't want you, your mother,

or Dong Chul's daughter...

to be threatened or hurt by the loan sharks.

Dad.

Anyway, thanks for that.

But...

what are you thinking, hanging around her now...

after leaving her with me for all those years?

Isn't that just wrong?

What if...

her in-laws were to find out?

Do you even think at all?

Mom.

Dad wanted to leave and I stopped him.

I wanted him to stay close.

- So don't berate him. - Even so,

if your in-laws find out, they'll throw you out.

You barely married rich.

What if you lose that?

Don't you...

care about Mi Ran who wants to marry a dentist?

I'm planning to move out anyway.

Don't worry.

Mr. Kang.

If you're going to leave, leave soon.

I'm so scared.

Do Ran, don't you let your in-laws hear. Okay?

My goodness.

Dad.

Are you really going to leave?

Do Ran.

Let's do this.

I pay off what I owe the chairman soon.

Once I do that,

it's best for everyone that I leave.

If you must leave,

don't go too far.

Stay somewhere close by.

Please.

Okay?

Okay.

What's this?

What else would it be?

It's a ring.

This is so embarrassing.

It's beautiful.

I meant to organize a grand surprise.

I couldn't.

Do you like it?

Yes, I like it.

I don't like surprises much.

In this moment,

this is more touching than anything else.

And it is just like you.

Do you remember this place?

This is where we first met.

I wanted to put the ring on your finger here.

- Thank you. - Hang in there.

Did you know it from the beginning?

Yes.

No matter what happens, I will never...

give you a hard time.

I will protect you.

I'll work hard and make a lot of money...

to make you a princess.

Go Rae.

I will always stay by your side.

Okay.

Yes?

Mother.

Are you going somewhere?

I'm meeting with my sister's future in-laws.

Her future in-laws?

Is your sister getting married?

Yes. It happened so soon...

that I couldn't tell you. I'm sorry.

I'll come home as soon as possible.

They're poor but they wouldn't skip anything.

Hey, Mother might be looking for Myeong Hee,

so make sure to come home early.

Yes, Mother.

We're late. Let's go.

Mom, I'll go meet with Mi Ran's future in-laws.

- Okay. - See you later.

Gosh.

Who else got trapped by that shameless lady?

I wish I could tell them not to marry their son.

Hong Shil is meeting her future in-laws too.

So Da Ya and Yi Ryook went out.

Gosh, what a coincidence.

Isn't that Dae Ryook? Dae Ryook.

Yi Ryook.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to meet with Mi Ran's future in-laws.

What about you?

We're also here to meet the future in-laws.

Go Rae is getting married.

Is Go Rae getting married?

Is that true, Da Ya?

Yes.

Go Rae didn't even tell me.

- We're going to be late. - We will get going then.

Go ahead. We will meet Mom here.

Okay. I'll see you at home.

Okay.

Let's go.

That's weird.

Do Ran's mother once...

came to our house to ask for 2,000 dollars.

How would she marry her daughter off?

And she meets her in-laws in a place like this?

That's not something you can ask me.

They are here.

Hello.

Hello. You came early.

Go Rae.

- Dae Ryook. - Hey, Dae Ryook.

What are you doing here?

Dae Ryook. Do Ran.

What is happening?

Go Rae, you are getting married to Mi Ran?

I can't believe this.

Does Go Rae want to get married...

to Secretary Kim's sister?
