QUEEN OF TEARS

-[Hyun-woo] Um...

EPISODE 2

What... I was...

Yeah?

...going to say was...

that I...

Oh!

...feel sorry.

[whimsical music playing]

About what happened today.

And I'm sorry about a lot of things
that have happened

between us and it won't happen again.

I'll treat you right, Hae-in.

That was what I was

going to say.

And now you say that you're dying
and all you've got is three months left?

So you're saying
I have to live without you?

Is this for real? [gasps]

I'm so stunned right now...

[sniffles] ...that I don't know what to say.

-Seriously?
-Yes.

Believe me.

[music fades]

I love you, Hong Hae-in.

[music resumes]

I love you.

Well, okay. If you
really can't live without me...

Yeah.

[music fades]

-...how about we die together?
-Huh?

You said you can't live without me.

What I said...

I meant, "Is it even possible
to live without you?"

You see? It's different.

It's more like a question
that I was asking.

Of course. With an obvious answer.

There used to be a system for this, right?

When a lord died, his wife and slaves
went with him to be buried alive.

-[whimsical music playing]
-Ah...

Buried... alive.

Mmm, buried alive.

You can make up the lost time
being my husband in the afterlife.

-Sounds kinda nice.
-[chuckles]

You know,
the way you put things sometimes,

it's hard to tell you're joking.

Who says I'm joking?

[music swells, fades]

-Do you really mean...
-Did you really mean what you said?

[gulps]

But hold on.

What exactly did the doctor say?

What do you mean you're sick? With what?

And did he really say that
I only have three...

That you only have three months left?

[thunder rumbling]

[pensive music playing]

Yes, Doctor? The test results?

Uh... Email them, please?
I don't have time to come in.

[music fades]

You need to come with me.

Your schedule's open.

The car is waiting for us downstairs.

I can't.

You don't even know
where it is we're going.

It doesn't matter because I'm not
going to go anywhere with you.

Then where are you going right now?

I don't know. I don't have any idea
where I'm going anymore.

SUNGMIN UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER

[indistinct chatter]

[unsettling music playing]

-[ticking rapidly]
-[wind whistling]

[doctor] You see, unlike normal tumors,

this one is spread out
like scattered dust.

[ticking continues]

-[ticking stops]
-[music fades]

Wait a minute.

-Sorry, but when did I get here?
-When?

[clock ticking softly]

I was in the hospital lobby
just a second ago.

PARK JIN-KOOK

How did I suddenly end up...

It feels like I teleported.

Have you experienced this before?

It's like I explained to you before.

I get these headaches and then...

I can be forgetful, sometimes even...

This year's VIP art exhibit
was an extremely successful...

-We should, without question.
-They are opening a new location.

Demand for sleep therapy...

[pensive music playing]

[Hae-in] For ten minutes,
no, 30 minutes, sometimes hours,

suddenly I can't remember
what I've been doing.

-[sighs]
-[lipstick clatters]

Uh, Ms. Hong, you said to cancel
everything on your schedule

so you could meet Director Baek Hyun-woo.
You're still here.

[Hae-in] I find myself
missing important things.

[ticking rapidly]

[pensive music continues]

[breathing heavily]

[somber music playing]

[exhales sharply]

-[music fades]
-[exhales, echoes]

Why didn't you make an appointment sooner?

I just assumed it was because I was tired.
Nothing more serious than zoning out.

It wasn't like I had
any particular pain anywhere.

But then...

Is this something serious?

It's called a cloud cell tumor
and it's exceedingly rare.

There are very few cases
in the entire world

and you're basically
the first one discovered in Korea.

Will I need surgery?

You won't.

[sighs in relief]

So medication, then? That's all I need?

What makes your case even more difficult

is the shape of your growth
compared to normal tumors.

As you can see,
there is no precise lump of cells.

The tumor cells are spread out
between the cranial nerves...

[echoing] ...like a cloud.

The tumor has progressed rapidly.

It's especially bad in the temporal lobe.

That's probably why you're experiencing
symptoms of sudden memory loss.

[unsettling music playing]

It's a rare illness.

The symptoms vary case by case
so there's not much I can tell you.

If it worsens, you might suffer
hallucinations or personality disorders.

Unfortunately, medication in this case
would not be effective,

and getting surgery would be too risky.

It's not as simple as cutting it out
like we do with regular tumors.

[wind whistling]

Ms. Hong Hae-in?

Ms. Hong Hae-in?

-[music stops]
-Are you all right?

[breath trembles]

[sighs]

-I get it now.
-Sorry?

You're saying that's what happens
with normal people.

I understand completely.

But now tell me about
the treatments I have access to.

We're not talking about normal cases here.

I hear you're raising funds
to build a children's hospital.

I can take care of everything.

So long as you tell me...
what I can do to get rid of those cells.

As far as I know,

there isn't any scientifically proven
method of doing that.

The best we can do
is put you on medication

that will help with your symptoms,
the headaches and sudden loss of memory.

But treating the illness itself
is impossible as of right now...

I can feel you trying to say it.

You're trying to tell me that I'm dying,
aren't you, Doctor?

So go ahead, let's hear it.

How much longer do I have left to live?

Based on the speed
at which the tumor is spreading,

my honest assessment
would be three months.

[somber music playing]

[music fades]

[Hae-in] But what does that doctor know?

Who else would know if not a doctor?

I know my own body.

You sound just like a stubborn old man.

Have you ever seen me
eat junk food or instant meals?

-I haven't.
-See?

I've never had a soda in my whole life.

You think it's fun
drinking vegetable smoothies

and sticking to a diet?

I meditate in the morning and do yoga
in the evening to manage my stress.

I don't even take deep breaths in rooms
without high-purity oxygen.

I've been trying to keep myself healthy
ever since the day I was born.

I hear you.

Calm down.

Somehow, all the people
who drink and smoke,

who eat all the trash they want,
who breathe in random air,

they don't get this weird disease.

-Why do I?
-I have no idea either.

Whatever. Let's say I can get sick,
why don't they know how to cure it?

They can send people to the moon
and make self-driving cars,

but for one little tumor,
suddenly they can't do a thing?

How does that make sense?

Why don't we... go back together?

Tomorrow. We can double-check everything.

What for?

We have to make sure you're really dying.

[low whimsical music playing]

We have to make sure I'm really dying?

Which I would hate, of course.

So let's go in and get everything
checked out again. All right?

-[sighs]
-You must still be in shock.

For right now, just forget about it
and get some sleep.

[sighs] How can I sleep knowing this?

You're right.

[inhales sharply] I'm so dumfounded.

I don't think I'll sleep much myself.

[music swells]

-[music fades]
-[birds chirping]

[serene choral music playing]

[grunting]

[sighs]

[inhales]

[pleasant music playing]

[grunting]

[exhales]

What an amazing difference

a single day can make.

[humming cheerfully]

[continues humming]

[music stops]

Humming? Are you nuts?

She'll bury you alive.

You're sad.

[curious music playing]

I'll be bereaved, not divorced.

In only three months' time,
I'll be a widower.

[whimsical music playing]

Huh... Awful.

You have to frown.

Frown.

-Hmm.
-[knock at door]

[music fades]

Hong Hae-in?

What the...

Usually you can set a clock to her.

What's going on?

[amusing suspenseful music playing]

Hey...

It's already past 7:00.

[tense music playing]

[suspenseful music playing]

[music intensifies]

-[female voice] Oops.
-[music fades]

What? What?

[enchanting music playing]

[amusing music playing]

[heart beating]

Uh... morning kiss.

Good morning.

[music fades]

Good morning, huh?
You must be feeling good about all this.

Your skin is looking good today.

You must have slept well.
I was up all night staring at the ceiling.

[tense music playing]

Uh, who? Me?

My skin looks nice? No.

Uh... no. That can't be.

[amusing music playing]

[door closes]

[exhales]

-[music stops]
-[grunts]

[music resumes]

[breath trembles]

[music fades]

I'm only saying this just in case...

You're the only one who knows about this.

So if word gets out, I'll know it was you.

Uh, I understand. And will I continue
to be the only one who knows?

[Hae-in] Mm-hmm.

-You're not planning to tell your family?
-Of course not.

-They're the last ones I want to know.
-Uh, still, I think you should...

I'm so close to getting into
the One Trillion Won Club.

It's right within my grasp.

You know what Grandpa said
when he gave me the department store.

If I get over a trillion won in sales,

he'll skip my father
and hand the entire business to me.

You want me to ruin everything now
when I'm this close?

[sighs] And you really won't tell them
'cause of that?

My brother's the kind of guy who calls up
your doctor when you get the flu

to see if it's something worse.

You think my mother is any different?

Imagine what would happen
if they found out.

They wouldn't waste a second
to oust me from the family.

They'll be tripping over themselves
trying to get a piece of what I've built.

[chuckles dryly]

That will be over my dead body.

Trust me on that.

[woman] Hmm.

Okay, so, why do you think my grandpa
would call me this early?

Is this how the old man
likes to start his day?

-Yelling at me so he can feel okay?
-Can you think of any reason?

To tell the truth,

remember how I was gonna launch
an organic coffee brand?

The one you told to your grandfather
you pretty much had secured?

Mm-hmm. I guess it wasn't true.
They played me.

They stabbed me in the back
and went over to Yeom Sang-jin instead.

-I'm totally cut out.
-[sighs]

[sighs] Why aren't there any decent people
left in the world, babe?

He couldn't already know about it,
could he? It was my deal.

-I... I only just found out.
-That's the way these things go.

Don't be scared. It was force majeure.
That's why the deal fell through.

You're so right.
But even if it was that thing you said,

-force majeure...
-[mouthing]

If it was force majeure
that the deal happened to fall through,

that could be why I'm in trouble. [sighs]

I'm so nervous.

He's your grandfather.
Not king of the underworld.

Just be confident and talk.

-You're right.
-Hmm.

[both chuckle]

[Man-dae] What the hell
are you doing over there?

Grandfather, it was, uh, uh...
It was force majeure

-and that's why the deal fell through...
-What? What are you saying?

What's all this about
a deal that fell through?

Launching the organic coffee brand?
Is that why you wanted me to see you?

No, kid. Listen up.

What this is about

is your company overpaying
its tax bill by eight billion won!

-[tense music plays]
-Huh?

But Baek caught it

and is now filing a rectification claim
to fix your mistake.

If it weren't for his law department,

eight billion won would've
just gotten down the damn drain.

-[sighs]
-Your finance director,

he's your wife's cousin, right?

-He's fired!
-[sighs]

And weren't you
just in here boasting about

how you had that organic coffee deal
or whatever in the bag?

-You blew that as well? Huh?
-[breathing heavily]

You idiot, what's wrong with you?

Why can't you do anything right?

Why the hell can't you be
more like your sister?

-Huh?
-Well, I... I just...

You have a mouth, don't you? Use it.

Explain yourself, kid.

-Use your words. Speak.
-I...

-Speak, damn it! Speak!
-I'm... I'm trying to speak,

-but just please...
-Speak!

[panting] I can't... I can't breathe.

-[Man-dae] Huh?
-[strained breathing]

Uh, what are you doing?

-Get up, kid!
-[groans]

[sighs]

-[gasps]
-They think it's a panic disorder.

At least that's what Dr. Jeong said.

[gasps] Oh.

Oh, my goodness.

What did your grandfather say
to upset you this much?

-It's because of Hyun-woo.
-[gasps]

I mean, where does he get off doing
his job with such attention to detail?

[grimaces, moans]

-I'm sorry, Mother.
-[sighs]

It's my family's fault. I'm so ashamed.

Wait, babe, hold on!

Your cousin works hard. Things go wrong.

Besides, eight billion won
isn't that big of a deal.

-Eight billion won!
-[sighs]

I... I mean this is all because of
some measly eight billion won.

[sighs wearily]

Where's Baek right now?

[Jin-kook] I'm truly sorry.

[clock ticking]

But the results are the same, I'm afraid.

The same as in, you really think
she only has three months left to live?

-Exactly?
-Well, I can't be that precise.

[inhales] That's a bit
irresponsible of you, Doctor.

You studied the brain for 30 years.

Surely you can be more exact.

Please, we need statistics,
probability, anything.

Stop it. Let's go.

No, Hae-in, I need to hear this.

[whimsical music playing]

Then you stay here. I'm leaving.

[door closes]

Doctor...

I'd appreciate if you could be
as accurate as possible.

My life literally depends on it.

[music fades]

[indistinct announcement over PA system]

[soft melancholic music playing]

Ridiculous.

I'm different.

[music fades]

What brings you here?

Your husband isn't answering his phone.
Is he in his office?

-What is this all about?
-So he overpaid a few billion won.

Baek could've handled it discreetly

instead of running
to tell your grandfather.

Do you know how hard he was on Soo-cheol?

He must have found out by chance.
Why would Hyun-woo tell on him?

Please, do you think I'm stupid?

You must have told him to do it.

I don't have time for this. Something has...

Something big has just happened to me.

Did you know your brother...

[inhales sharply] ...had a panic attack?

-[soft melancholic music playing]
-Ah.

[chuckles dryly]

Yeah, that must have been hard.

But, Mom, I just told you
that something big has happened to me too.

Are you going to ask what it is?

Well, clearly,
if you're so good at everything,

you'll take care of it yourself.

Of course.

I'll take care of it.

All on my own.
Now, leave. This is a business.

Yeah? Mind your own.
I'm here for your husband.

Look, Mom, stop bothering us.

If you don't, I'm gonna keep
messing with your son until I die.

No matter how busy I get.

-Or what I have to deal with.
-What?

I'll keep it up until the day I die.

[scoffs] Oh, really?

You I think I'll stand aside
and let you do it?

I guess we'll see.

[huffs]

[music fades]

-Why'd you ask to eat here?
-Listen, I don't even trust

the conference room at my law firm.

Places like this,
that are nice and public,

that's where we're safe.

Why wouldn't we be safe?

Because choosing to go up against Queens

is about as dangerous for me
as it is for you.

Wait, you changed your mind?

After seeing you crying,
I gave it a lot of thought.

-[sighs]
-You know what?

Forget that noise. I'll divorce you!

[people murmuring]

-[Yang-gi clears throat]
-Wait.

-Hold on.
-Listen, I'm not taking this lightly.

-My career as an attorney is on the line.
-[Hyun-woo] That's great.

-But you don't have to do that.
-[crankily] I'm ready.

There's no divorce.

There's not? What happened to not
being able to stand another day with her?

That was when
I didn't think it would ever end.

But... now I know that it will.

-So I think I can handle it.
-What do you mean, it'll end?

Let's just say,

God has given me an opportunity
to leave her without danger.

-That's all you need to know.
-Just say what you're trying to say!

[intriguing music playing]

Parking lot One, at Jamwon Hangang Park.
30 minutes.

[intriguing music continues]

What is this?

I'm the only person who knows
what I'm about to tell you.

-I'll know it was you if it leaks.
-Jeez, man. What's the problem?

[strains]

[both straining]

[horns honking]

[music fades]

[Yang-gi] Really?

Right as I was about to
hand her the papers, she said

she had three months.

I even checked with the hospital.

[sighs] Hyun-woo...

Oh, my God, dude.

This is insane. I don't know what to say.

First thing,

let's shake hands.

-Stop that.
-Right.

I appreciate that
you're in a delicate position.

So I'll be the asshole.

Think about it.
The universe is on your side after all.

God, if you brought up
the divorce a second earlier,

you would've been kicked out
with nothing. Good as dead.

But you waited, you lucky bastard. Whoa!

You couldn't inherit Queens, could you?

Come on.

-You think they left that up to chance?
-Why?

Oh, of course, you signed a pre-nup?
Division of property clause?

That would never hold up
if you went to trial,

unless of course she put it in her will.

Uh-huh. That's what she did.

-It's all spelled-out.
-Is it?

[clicks tongue] Yeah.

She wrote it in before we got married.

In the event of her death,
I won't get a single penny from her.

She made sure
to notarize that before the wedding.

[sighs] Dynasties aren't dynasties
for nothing, huh?

-Man, they thought of everything.
-Forget about it. [sighs]

I'm just happy to escape.

In three months' time,
I'll be out of that family forever

without any major repercussions.

[snapping fingers]

[intriguing music playing]

Hold on, man. Think about it.

Why did God choose to bless you

with three entire months
by your wife's side?

Baek Hyun-woo...

Mr. Attorney, let's have a conversation
worthy of our profession.

Her will, three months is plenty of time
for her to revise it.

That means, in that time
you have to get your wife thinking,

"Gosh, this man really loves me,
doesn't he?"

"You know what? I should give him
the entirety of my share

in Queens Department Store.
What better way to remember me?"

-What do you mean?
-Just three months.

You were in the army for two years,
though. Three months is nothing.

You survived winter training.
You can do anything.

Love this woman... with all your might.

[sighs]

Hey.

[music fades]

Do you really think that I'm that...

that materialistic?

[jovial piano music playing]

-What's this?
-Our anniversary.

-It's today, remember?
-So?

Two years ago, I made a reservation
at a restaurant as a surprise.

But you got upset
and told me not to make a fuss.

-So?
-Last year, I didn't do anything.

And you got upset with me again

asking if I'd jump off a cliff
because you said to.

Are you here to argue with me
for being inconsistent then?

Mm-mm. Of course not.

-[whimsical music playing]
-[sniffs]

-Who can argue with a bunch of flowers?
-Hmm.

Since when have we felt that

anything in our marriage
would justify bringing flowers?

Honestly, I can't say
that it's all been good.

But you know, we can at least make
today a good day. Can't we?

So here...

Happy anniversary.

[sighs]

-[beeps]
-I need a vase.

[music ends]

[Grace] How are things at the house?

Have they been fighting more
or anything like that?

They haven't fought in a while. Actually...

-"Actually"?
-They look like they're getting along.

-"Getting along"?
-[woman] Yes.

Mr. Baek takes great care of Ms. Hong.
He's completely different.

Does this table seat ten people?

Twelve, I think.

[sighs]

[whimsical music playing]

There's only two of us here.

We've been too far apart.

What's wrong?

From now on,

I want to eat by your side.

[imperceptible]

[shell cracking]

[music fades]

[Hyun-woo] We've reviewed the contract

and there are several toxic clauses.

We have to pay the entire cost
of the store's interior renovation.

[vice-chairman] Well, that's not
an unreasonable request

considering how large a brand
we're bringing in.

Right.

But there's no minimum occupancy period.

So, for example, even if we spend
five billion won on the renovations,

they could leave the mall within a year
and we'd have no choice but to let them.

On top of that, they've inserted a clause

that if people are selling
knock-offs nearby,

-we have to pay them a penalty.
-[coughing]

-Are you okay?
-[Hae-in continues coughing]

-I just...
-Don't worry. I'll tell them.

-Call an ambulance.
-Huh?

-[whimsical music playing]
-[Hae-in coughing]

It's okay. I'm fine.

Are... are you sure?

I choked on some water. That's all.

[coughs]

-That's all?
-That's all.

If that's the case,
can we continue with the meeting now?

Uh, yes.

No ambulance.

[woman clears throat]

[clears throat]

[music fades]

What's gotten into him?

He's just trying to survive.

Ah, yes, please. After you.
I'll call you right away. Hello, sir.

Can you even imagine,

if my sister was coughing
and he happened to ignore it?

-She'd flip out.
-[sighs]

Poor Hyun-woo. He's still a jerk, though.

[enchanting choral music playing]

You should wait inside.
It's chilly out here.

[whimsical music playing]

Oh, you're so cold.

At this rate, you'll get sick.

That's better.

Jeez, why are your hands so cold?

Ms. Na, is our car on its way?

[Hae-in sighs]

Uh, yes, it will be here soon.

Will you be okay?

I can call an ambulance if you'd like.

[ambulance siren blares]

Oh, there's our car.

[whimsical music continues]

I got this.

Ugh, God. What's going on with those two?

I prefer them when they fight.

[breathes deeply]

-[Hae-in sighs]
-[music fades]

What's with you?
Why are you acting like this?

Hae-in, acting like what?
What are you talking about?

You're overdoing it.

[amusing music playing]

Right.

[sighs]

[woman 1] I don't know why, but Hyun-woo
always reminds me of Grace Kelly.

QUEEN'S HAIR SALON

Don't you think?

She got married to some king, right?

-He's more like Princess Diana.
-Oh, don't say that.

-Diana and her man split up.
-Ahhh!

-Sorry.
-Mi-seon, I came here for a perm.

-Not to get my hair pulled out.
-Well, I said sorry.

You know something?
We're too close with you.

-You never give us a service attitude.
-She's right.

Be honest, is it weird hearing us
talk about how your brother looks?

Hyun-woo's always been classy
and had the looks, so, not an issue.

-Oh, that's right.
-[whines]

-Have you heard?
-[woman 2] What?

Remember the daughter of that preacher?

-Who married the heir to that hospital?
-Yeah.

-She's getting divorced.
-Is that right?

-No way!
-[woman 1] Yeah.

-[woman 3] Oh, my goodness.
-[woman 2 gasps] No way.

[groans]

Why are you making a fuss about it?
Everyone these days is getting divorced.

It's so common now,
there are even TV shows about it.

That's not something
to be ashamed of these days.

Goodness, think of her poor mom.

I wouldn't be able to show
my face in town.

She used to go around telling everyone
about her son-in-law, the doctor.

I thought she was the doctor.

Whenever someone got sick,
she wanted to give them advice.

-Oh, yeah.
-So why did she get divorced?

Why else? They're from different classes.
It's like I always say,

"Two people from two backgrounds
can never last."

[gasps, hesitates] Not that that's true
for everyone, of course.

[chuckles nervously]
Hyun-woo's doing well, isn't he?

Of course he is, he's doing great.

But you know how it is.

People in those big cities like Seoul

-look down on us country folk.
-Mm-hmm.

And his in-laws aren't just any family.
They're conglomerate.

[scoffs] My sister-in-law isn't like that.

Right. I'm sure she's not.

[both chuckle]

Then why didn't they come
to your dad's 60th birthday?

[woman 2] Right. People have been
talking about it ever since.

-About what?
-How they don't get along

and how Hyun-woo's being tossed aside.

I think people who
don't really care about their families

compensate by going all out
with the celebrations.

My sister-in-law really does care,

so she doesn't have to
do all that. [laughs]

Okay. But, Mi-seon, why are you so angry?

I'm not angry, it's all good.

Stop balling up your fists then.
You look like you're squaring up.

[woman 3 chuckles]

-[Mi-seon sighs]
-[grunts]

-[Mi-seon grunts]
-Oh, wow.

Gosh, what's wrong with her?

-I think she's mad.
-Hmm.

Damn it, my whole body hurts today.

Don't throw things. You might end up
giving Pinky some bad ideas.

[whines]

Baek Hyun-woo, what an idiot.
Sure, he must have thought he was all that

after graduating from college.

It must be hard letting that family
walk all over him.

But still, he married into a rich family.
Isn't that worth it?

Well, duh. I let my students
walk all over me

-at the end of each month.
-Why?

-So they sign up for the next class.
-Hey!

You think I have clients
'cause of my hands? Hell, no.

I use words. "Oh, my God,
Unni, you look so pretty today."

"Your skin has such a glow."

"God, you look ten years younger
with that hair." So on, so forth.

Wish Hyun-woo was like that.

[Du-gwan] Oh, goodness.

I raised that boy too soft.

Mom, shouldn't we do something about this?

-At this rate, Hyun-woo will get divorced.
-It wouldn't be the worst thing.

Honey, come on.

If he says he's going to die,
he should do it.

It's better than dying.

[man sighs] Noodle's good.

-[Bong-ae] Want more sesame oil?
-[Mi-seon] Give me some of that! More!

[dishes clinking]

[silverware rattling]

[chef] Today, we prepared
different specialized dishes

based on the results of the blood test
you took last week.

We prepared a low FODMAP diet

which is beneficial to those
with IBS, Vice-Chairman Hong.

Yes, well done.

Hmm.

-Where's Grandpa?
-Oh, tomorrow he has a health check-up.

So he's skipping dinner.

Please. Father's going to
live to be 120 years old.

Mine is the only one without meat.

-It's because of your cholesterol.
-[grumbles]

-Oh, and Hae-in...
-[Hae-in] Yes?

Tomorrow, you'll receive a demand letter.

I'm going to file a lawsuit
for damages to my property

from when the department store's
Gwanggyo branch came over my land.

Seriously? We went over this
right before we started construction.

-It's a tiny piece of your land.
-Well...

Every war in history started because of
tiny pieces of land being crossed over.

Back then you told me it was all right.

I thought it was too.
But then my attorney told me no.

People might say I gave special favors
because we're family

and it could lead to problems
with the gift tax.

Okay, then. You chose to file this lawsuit
after we finished building.

-You haven't opened the store yet.
-Ah.

You'd prefer I tear
the whole thing down, is that it?

Hae-in, your mom's not suggesting
you tear it down.

-[sighs]
-She wants to come to a settlement.

-Baek.
-Yes.

Look it over with Hae-in.

Find an appropriate solution.

[chair scrapes]

-[Hae-in sighs]
-[pensive music playing]

Find a solution?

What solution?

I get scared and back down
like you expect me to?

Is this what you meant earlier today?

That you'll blackmail and extort me
to get what you want?

-Hey, what I'm saying...
-Hang on a sec.

Did you just interrupt your mother-in-law?

I'm sorry, ma'am.

But since you've already filed
a formal complaint,

we'll respond with a written answer
after we receive it.

In the meantime,
there will certainly be media exposure

which will lead to damages
like stock prices dropping.

I think we better inform
Grandfather in advance.

-Fine, I'll take care of that.
-[sighs]

Well, we'll keep that in mind.

I don't think my wife's feeling very well.

We'll head home for the night.

[music fades]

I thought you didn't want
your family to find out.

[Hae-in] I don't.

Don't you think
with the way you've been acting,

they'll know something's different?
Yelling at dinner?

Losing your temper?

You're right.

That was very unlike me.

But what about you?

You cut off my mom, you took my side.

I even detected some warmth in your tone.

[solemn music playing]

If anybody is acting suspicious here,
it's you.

Go back to how you were.

Since when have you ever
peeled a shrimp for me?

[Hyun-woo] I tried,
but we're just impossible.

[music fades]

I can't force things. It doesn't work.

We've been living as strangers
for so long, it's too late to change.

But you remember
how you guys were three years ago?

-How?
-In love.

-I mean, sure, but...
-Come on.

You two couldn't survive
without each other.

She flew to you in a helicopter.

I remember,
you had this crazed look in your eyes.

You were completely smitten.
How else would you describe it?

You were in love.

-That was a long time ago.
-You're right, it was.

But just think about it this way,
you learn to swim as a kid,

and for a lot of people
that's the end of it.

But if you suddenly fell in the ocean,
you'd still swim.

You might think you forgot how to do it,
but your muscles remember.

That's how it is with love.

You think you've forgotten all about it,

but when you put your mind to it,
your heart remembers.

I don't know
if it's really the same thing.

Of course it's the same thing.
Your heart's a muscle, right?

[sighs]

[solemn music playing]

Isn't it strange?

You get married
because you love each other.

Why don't you love each other
when you're married?

Here's my perspective
as a divorce attorney.

I think the main problem is that
marriage is a monopoly.

In a monopoly, you stop trying,

you disappoint each other,
you start fighting and you come to me.

The institution of marriage itself

makes it impossible
for people to stay in love.

[sighs]

You think so?

The way I see it,
if you want to stay in love, honestly,

don't get married to begin with.

[engine revving]

["Wedding March" playing]

[music ends]

[neck cracks]

[bell tolling]

[cawing]

[woman] Take this as a symbol
of my love and trust.

[dramatic Western music playing]

Honey?

Are you crazy?
Who are you calling "honey"?

-Secretary Kim, been a while, hasn't it?
-Yes, Ms. Hong.

[guests murmuring]

What's all this?
Are you two getting married?

On Korean soil? [gasps] Ah.

You must have heard I went to jail
and thought you could crawl on back.

But, oh, no, no, no.

[inhales sharply] Your girl is free.

[laughing]

[man chuckles nervously]

Take it easy, honey.

I thought we had a deal.

I'd spare your pathetic life
on the condition you left the country

and I never heard from you ever again.

-Isn't it so?
-Mm-hmm.

And yet, here you are in Korea,

getting married in front
of the whole family, to your mistress.

[laughing]

-[roars]
-[whimpers]

[guests gasp]

[groaning] Honey!

-Honey, wait, wait!
-[Beom-ja breathing heavily]

[grunts]

-[music intensifies]
-[panting]

-[chuckles]
-[deep growl]

-[tiger roars]
-Honey! Honey, no!

[siren blaring]

[mellow Western music playing]

[Beom-ja sobbing]

-Um... your face.
-[music fades]

-There's some blood.
-It's not mine.

-Where is it? [sighs]
-Your cheek.

You're still on probation.
This could be bad for you.

You could be charged
with assault and defamation.

Defamation?

I haven't even begun
to defame those two traitors.

You want me to show you
what defamation really looks like?

If you do, they'll put you
back in jail until you're 60.

Is that what you want?

I've already settled with their attorneys.

-[sighs] How much am I paying?
-You wanna know?

Who cares? Thanks to me, they can put
a new pool in their front yard.

You should have held it in.

Can you just forgive them?

-You the smoking type, Baek?
-No, I quit.

That's too bad.
My husbands find solace in other women.

I find solace in my cigarettes.

Uh...

You can't smoke here, Auntie.
Come on, let's go.

Yeah? Where to?

[inhales sharply]

Oh, God. In prison, getting out
was all I could think about.

But there's nothing out here for me.

You should go home.

Your father is waiting for you.

[scoffs]

[soft footsteps approaching]

[Man-dae] Hong Beom-ja.

I, uh... I heard you wouldn't eat today.

[gasps]

Why would you care
if I'm starving or not, huh?

You care so little about me,
you put me in jail.

Hey, I didn't put you in jail.

Goodness.

I mean, what did you expect
after assaulting an innocent person?

You committed a crime.
There are consequences.

[scoffs]

Yeah, sure.

And the bitch who
killed my mom and replaced her

as lady of this household is an angel.
That's what you're saying?

She's not the lady of this household.

We're not even married.
What are you talking about?

I'm the world's worst sinner
for grabbing her hair

-and shoving her around a little?
-A little, my ass.

-She popped a disc in her back.
-Who cares?!

Why don't you leave this disc-popping
bitch to starve herself to death?

[sighs, groans]

Hey, hey, Beom-ja.

I think you have it all wrong.

We're in love.

She's not with me for what I possess.

Not my fortune and not the family name.

[groans angrily]
What are you, a total idiot?

-Why can't you see?
-[sighs]

How much ambition does
this woman have to not ask for anything

in exchange for living with you?
What do you have besides wealth?

You're an old-ass man.
What else could she want?

Enough! [yells] That's enough!

[sighs wearily] That girl...

When will she finally grow up?

She's already more than 50 years old,
so I suppose at this point it's unlikely.

Just leave her be for now.

Go on, take your turn.

You may be the better player,
but is that any reason to be distracted?

Distracted?

-Oh, my.
-You're focusing on the current threat.

You have to see the whole table.

Yes, that's true.

But if you get frightened and run,
you'll get eaten alive.

Nor should you charge a tiger with
only a stone in the hopes of capturing it.

No matter how great
your desire. [chuckles]

That is how you lose.

-Oh.
-[chuckles]

They say janggi teaches you
all you need to know about life.

[chuckling]

[suspenseful music playing]

[chuckling]

I'm through your palace walls.

What will you do now
that your general has nowhere to hide?

[chuckles softly]

Was this your strategy from the beginning
or are you just exploiting me this time?

I don't know.

In any case, you lost.

-Which means you have to grant me a wish.
-What's your wish?

Don't worry.

I'll be sure to let you know
when I need it.

[chuckles]

[insects trilling]

[music fades]

-Oh! Honey, did you see that?
-Hmm?

I think I just saw
a shooting star in the sky.

I mean, we're in the city.

How often do you see a shooting star here?

Hae-in's conception dream
was a shooting star.

Oh, was it?

When you had that dream,

you were so excited
to be having a daughter.

Really?

Well, I'm having trouble remembering.

Honey, give Hae-in a break.

What did I do?

How much longer are you gonna let the past
come between you and your daughter?

You need to let that go
and then we can just move on.

That's what you said back then too.

When Father said we should
cover it up, you listened.

I still can't understand
why our Su-wan had to die like that.

It was an accident.

-It was nobody's fault.
-[crying] Right.

You can say it was nobody's fault,
but that doesn't bring my Su-wan back.

[sighs] I feel it every day.

You couldn't even imagine my pain.

To other people...

To you, sure,
maybe it's a thing of the past.

But I relive it all the time.

I will never escape the day
I lost my child.

And that's that.

Don't expect me to change.

[melancholic music playing]

[door opens]

[door closes]

[sighs]

[music fades]

[sighs]

What could she
still be doing out at this hour?

[pen thumps]

Is she even sick?

She has too much energy.

[Jin-kook] To be honest,

the chances of her surviving
at this point are extremely low.

-But, of course, miracles do exist.
-Wait...

[intriguing music playing]

A miracle could happen?
What's the probability of that?

Are miracles that common or not?

In 30 years as a doctor,

I've seen people with even less
treatable illnesses recover miraculously,

even though all the doctors
were sure that it couldn't happen.

Don't give up hope just yet.

[keyboard clacking]

but I'm still alive 30 years later."

Thirty years?

-[music resumes]
-Wait, really?

There can't be this many miracles.

Or can there?

So having three months left to live
is basically meaningless.

I mean, wow.

Soap operas are wrong.

"Woke up and all my tumors were gone."

"The doctors are calling it
medically unexplainable."

[sighs] Jeez.

What am I supposed to do with that?

This is really where we are?

This is modern medicine?

Oh. Hae-in.

[exhales] When did you get home?

[music fades]

You're falling asleep here.

You should go to bed.

Oh. Yeah, I should.

We both should.

Good night then.

Baek Hyun-woo...

[Hyun-woo] Huh?

You know, to be honest,

I didn't believe you.

Uh... Huh?

I was sure that on the inside

you were thrilled about my diagnosis.

I assumed that's why
you were being so nice all of a sudden.

[heart thumping]

I thought you had a hidden agenda.

I was a bit suspicious.

But now,

I can say I was wrong.

I didn't

know you were doing so much research.

Uh... [sighs]

It's more common
than you might have thought.

Miracles, I mean.

[sighs softly]

Wait.

Uh, you can just talk to me
from over there.

If you're worrying, don't.

I'm gonna survive this.

[curious music playing]

I may have been acting tough,

but I was just as shocked
to hear the news as you.

I was a bit depressed.

"Why not let it happen?"
That's honestly how I was thinking.

"If I really only have three months left,

what's the point
of going through treatment?"

"Maybe I should give up."

"Would anyone even be sad
if I died?" [scoffs]

"I know my family wouldn't."

I was overwhelmed
with all sorts of thoughts.

Uh-huh.

But now,

I know at least...

there's somebody in the world,

who's rooting for me to survive.

[music fades]

Me?

Uh... That's right.

Me. That's right.

Yeah.

All of it had me feeling...

pretty exhausted.

But knowing you feel this way
is cheering me up a little.

I did some research.

There's no other case in Korea,
but there are people like me abroad.

There are numerous research labs
developing new medications for my illness.

Perhaps if they're given
the financial resources,

they'll be able to speed up the process.

I'm going to give this
a proper investigation

and start actively pushing ahead.

-Really?
-Hmm.

Does that cheer you up?

[whimsical music playing]

[breathes shakily] Uh...

Of course... it does.

[sighs]

Don't worry.

I'm not gonna die that easily.

I promise. I'm gonna
hang in there for your sake.

[whimsical music continues]

[sighs]

[music fades]

[woman gasps]

-[chuckles]
-You were gonna post that, weren't you?

Come on.
Can't you just let me brag a little?

I just really wanna show you off, babe.

If you post that,
then there will be articles.

You know your parents don't like it
when I'm exposed in the media.

-I don't wanna concern them.
-You're smart, aren't you?

[chuckles softly]

All right then.

[grunts]

By the way,

Jun-ho said he didn't want me to tell you
because it's not final yet.

Your cousin has an update? What?

You know how sorry he is

over that eight billion won.

I told you, it's all right.

Even so, he wanted to introduce you
to someone as a way to make it up to you.

-Who?
-A private equity fund investor.

He's the man who made it possible
for Yeom Sang-jin

-to get the deal with the organic coffee.
-That so?

David Yoon is his name.

He's Korean American
and he recently came to the country.

He has a tight hold
on Middle Eastern oil money

and he's trying to find new investments.

It's in the trillions, at least.

[upbeat music playing]

You know Hercyna, that brand
Hae-in is trying to get for Queens?

They're opening their first
Asian flagship location in Seoul.

And David Yoon is the man
who made it happen.

[imperceptible]

[breathes deeply]

[music stops]

Hey, you.

[soft music playing over speakers]

Oh, hey.

[chuckles] Congrats.

Your food court redesign turned out great.

Truly though,
I eat there every chance I get.

Huh. I heard you've been
stopping by there recently.

You should be proud of what you've done.

We at Royal
have a lot of catching up to do.

I mean, those dessert stations. [laughs]

Let's just say we're behind the curve
until the Hercyna flagship opens

next to the fountain on the first floor,
after the renovations, of course,

then maybe we can compete.

We're the ones who have to level up.
What good is a successful food court?

We'd just be a huge restaurant
without the Hercyna flagship store.

-[chuckles dryly]
-Something Queens actually has room for.

[gasps mockingly]

-Do you want some advice?
-Well... if you want to give it so bad.

[scoffs] You know that Chairman Hermann

regards cooperation
as the ultimate corporate value.

[chuckles] What better sign
that a potential business partner

has the correct attitude
than getting along with their spouse?

-At least that's what he believes.
-So what?

Take a look around you.

Everyone else is here
with their significant other,

but I don't see your husband anywhere.

You seem to be alone.

Right?

[laughs]

Honestly, I'm impressed.

Everybody knows
you don't have any friends,

but I would have expected
someone to tag along with you at least.

You're the only one here alone. [chuckles]

Seriously, the only one.

[laughs] Poor thing.

[imperceptible]

[lock clicks]

BAEK HYUN-WOO

[line rings, clicks]

-Where are you?
-[Hyun-woo] The courthouse.

-I have a trial.
-[line disconnects]

[sighs]

What did he say?

[Hae-in sighs]

What's that?

You were making a phone call
to your husband, weren't you?

Is he not coming?

-He has a trial.
-That's convenient.

-Sorry?
-If he has a trial, he has a trial.

You can't just ask him to skip it.

Mmm, that sounds like a good excuse.
Really, it does. What else can you do?

Well, it's not really an excuse.
He does have a trial.

Don't get so upset.

I was only joking.

[gasps] Hey, don't sweat the rumors.

-I don't even believe them.
-What rumors?

Oh, you know,
that you two are on the outs,

that your marriage is crumbling,
that your husband

only married you for the wealth. Ugh.

-It feels so wrong even saying that.
-That didn't stop you.

I promise there's a lot
I won't bother mentioning.

You should have just
married somebody normal.

When people of the same class
get together, there's never any gossip.

What would there even be to say?

In fact, the older I get,
the more I realize

just how important
choosing the right person is.

This is your partner.

You and he need to be
facing the same direction. [chuckles]

You know, I've been married four years now

without ever once
fighting with my husband?

I get so curious about couples
who are rumored to not get along.

-[scoffs]
-What's it like?

I can't even think of a time
we were angry with each other.

-What are you asking me for?
-[laughs]

Hey, even if you don't have
a good relationship,

don't take it out on somebody who does.

[Hae-in scoffs]

[laughing]

[indistinct chatter]

You should have made it work with
Yoon Eun-sung back in the day, you know.

Why are you bringing him up
all of a sudden?

You really don't know anything, do you?

Yoon Eun-sung is Chairman Hermann's
new right hand.

If you want to see the chairman,
you talk to Eun-sung.

What?

Yeah, he's grown up a lot over the years.

He's not the boy we knew in college.

Apparently, he handles money
for a chic family in the Middle East.

That's what he told me
when I picked him up from the airport.

Eun-sung!

[imperceptible]

[mellow music playing]

[Eun-sung] It's been a while.

[music fades]

[chuckles softly]

It has. You're right.

If you were in Korea,
you should have reached out.

[clicks tongue] Do you remember
what the last thing you said to me was?

You said, "Don't reach out."

-Did I?
-Mm-hmm.

I don't think so.

I remember saying something like,
"Let's keep in touch."

Didn't I say that?

[soft music playing over speakers]

[sighs]

Fine.

I did tell you not to contact me,

but only because you kept
crossing the line.

[clicks tongue, inhales] Right. Is there

something you want to say to me, Hae-in?

You probably already know this.

So I'll be honest with you.

Ye-na and I are currently
in an all-out battle

to get Hercyna's flagship location.

From what I hear, Chairman Hermann and you
have a close relationship.

What do you say?

-Can you help me out with that?
-Me?

Why?

Honestly, I don't remember much
about what happened in the past.

So why don't we just agree
things between us ended on a good note?

That works for me.

[scoffs softly]

[chuckles softly]

[woman 1] Thank you so much
for inviting us.

This is an amazing display.
Just, the quality, it's unmatched.

-Really appreciate it.
-[Hermann] It's so nice to see you.

-[woman 1] Oh, thank you so much.
-Enjoy your evening.

[woman 1] And have you met?

-[Hermann] I think... I will talk to him.
-[woman 1] Oh.

[Hae-in] When will the trial be over?
Anytime soon?

[woman 1] Any of your favorites
that we should check out?

-[Hermann] I would go for the shoe.
-[woman 1] Of course. Thank you.

-[Hermann] Enjoy.
-[Hae-in sighs]

[woman 2] Hi, it's so lovely
to finally meet you.

[Hermann] You too.

This is the wife he was talking about?

[woman 2] This is the wife
he was talking about.

Very nice to see you.
So good you could come.

[indistinct chatter]

[man chuckles]

[stifles laughter]

[man] Oh.

["The Reasons Of My Smiles"
by BSS playing]

[man] She's my life.

-But the trial?
-I won it.

I won it as fast as I could.

[chuckles]

Oh, how do you do?
I'm Hong Hae-in and of Queens,

and my husband, Baek Hyun-woo, is a lawyer

and also the legal director
of the Queens Group. [chuckles]

Nice to meet you.

-[Hermann] Well, you're handsome.
-[chuckling]

Your husband looks like he belongs
on a billboard or somewhere.

[chuckles] That's really nice of you.

-[Hermann] Enjoy your evening.
-Thank you.

[Hyun-woo] Thank you.

[song continues]

[exhales]

[song fades]

[bartender] Here's your drink.

I'll have a mocktail please.

What was it you said?

How in marriage, your partner and you
need to be facing in the same direction?

I didn't understand that
until I saw your husband, that is.

What was that?

It's just that, with my own husband,

I prefer it when we face each other.

But then, I enjoy looking at his face.

[bartender] Here you go.

[jaunty music playing]

[clicks tongue]

-[scoffs in disbelief]
-[music fades]

Honey, you got to have one.

The appetizers here
are really good. [chuckles]

-[slurps]
-We didn't come here to eat.

-Hmm?
-Please wipe your mouth.

[amusing music playing]

In fact, get your face out of my face.

Go.

I hate when you do that.

[music fades]

[Eun-sung] Here.

Oh. [chuckles]

[sighs] I've thought about Hae-in
a few times over the years.

It feels odd meeting her, uh...

[clicks tongue] ...husband.

Sorry?

Oh. Her and I used to...

[chuckles]

We worked really well... together.

Ah!

Really? That's great.

You know, Hae-in doesn't really, uh,

have many good friendships, so...

I'm glad to hear it.

You know... [sighs]

...she was really special to me.

Oh. I understand.

[curious music playing]

That doesn't faze you.

Huh?

If you're not fazed by that,
it means one of two things.

Either you trust her that much
or you don't care.

Which is it?

[chuckles softly]

[chuckles]

I'm just messing around.

-[glasses clink]
-[chuckles]

[man] Mr. Yoon.

-Coming.
-Right.

[scoffs] That son of a...

How did he know?

That's annoying.

-[music fades]
-[water running]

What a jerk.

You know, she was really special to me.

Oh, was she?

If that's true,

you should have kept trying
and married her yourself.

You should have married her
and saved my life.

[whimsical music playing]

What's the point in telling me now?
Nothing I can do with that information.

Was he trying to get on my nerves or what?

[sighing]

Seriously, what an asshole.

[music fades]

[intriguing music playing]

[imperceptible]

[imperceptible]

[man] Hello, there.

-We meet again. [chuckles]
-Ah. Good to see you.

[sighs] So many people.

-[man] Right?
-[imperceptible]

Uh-huh. I know.

A majority of the guests that came tonight
came to see that man,

-to try to introduce themselves to him.
-[imperceptible]

Oh.

Do you know what he does?

[Grace] He's a magnate.

The most powerful people on Wall Street
depend on Mr. Yoon

for their access
to Middle Eastern oil money.

Even the chairman
is all over him right now.

That's why we've been trying so hard
to get a meeting with Mr. Yoon.

But it hasn't been easy.

And you're saying this Yoon Eun-sung
and Hae-in went to college together?

Yes. [sighs]

I can't help feeling sorry every time
something like this is revealed.

And what are you sorry for?

For the match that could have been
between him and Hae-in.

-With a husband like that...
-[clicks tongue]

Oh, whatever.
She complicated her own life.

Even so, I could have done
a much better job with it.

[Hae-in] With what?

I think there's a misunderstanding here.

I've never been anything
but thankful for you, Ms. Ko.

Thankful that you didn't do
a better job with me.

That you took me out of that unbelievable
marriage market list of yours.

So there's no need
to feel guilty on my account.

It's all for the best.

-What did you call me here for?
-I assume you overheard most of it.

I want you to invite that
Yoon Eun-sung to the family hunt.

Ah.

It's true, one word from me
and he'd come running over.

[chuckles]

But then again,

why would I do that?

The lawsuit.

We'll pretend it never happened.

[gripping music playing]

[music fades]

Oh. [chuckles]

Hae-in.

[music continues]

[music fades]

There is no limit to the number of magpies
or crows you can catch on your hunt today.

But you can't catch more than five
wild boars, elk, or pheasants per person.

Be careful not to cross courses
as you might accidentally shoot somebody

thinking they're a game animal.

So please stay on your own course
for the duration of the hunt.

It's dangerous to hunt wild boars alone.

If you encounter a wild boar on your own,
don't point your gun at it

-or turn your back.
-Mom.

Should she have a gun?

[man] As you probably know...

Well, it's too late
to do anything about it now.

What if she kills someone?

[man] We need to have
all the guns back here by 6:00 p.m.

to complete our inventory.

God, look at her.
It's almost like she's mad.

[imitates gunshot]

Hong Beom-ja shouldn't have gone to jail.

She should have been put
in a mental hospital.

[man] All right, let's head out.

Auntie, we should go.

[whimsical music playing]

-This way. Here.
-[Beom-ja] Mm-hmm.

[Soo-cheol] Right. Let's go.

It's not exactly safe.

-[birds cawing]
-[gunshot echoes]

-[Soo-cheol] Oh! [laughing]
-[laughing]

[laughing]

[Man-dae] Did I get it?

I couldn't see it from here.

A direct hit, Dad.

I saw the biggest one
dropping to the ground over there.

-[laughter]
-I saw it too, Grandfather. Whoa!

[men laughing]

Did it? I think you're right.
I can feel it in my hands.

[men laughing]

Did it get hit?

I didn't see anything drop down.

-[whimsical music playing]
-[Man-dae clears throat]

[sighs] Well...

Excuse me, but are you
some kind of expert here

or a professional tracker with eagle eyes?

I'm sure I saw it fall
somewhere over there.

-I'll have the kids go and find it.
-[Man-dae] Uh-huh.

Yeah. So what do you say, Hyun-woo?
Think you'll catch anything this year?

[laughing] Oh. That's right.

All these years,
taking him hunting with us,

I haven't ever seen Baek catch a thing!

[all laughing]

Come on. You've been here enough times.
What's wrong with you?

You were in the military, weren't you?

You want some shooting lessons?
I can teach you.

I can shoot.

-Focus on yourself.
-[Man-dae laughs]

I am focused.
I was just trying to help you out.

And you, Mr. Yoon?
Are you much of a hunter?

I'm not sure. But certainly,

I'm not nearly as good as anybody here.

-He's so modest about everything.
-[Man-dae laughs] All right.

Now, let's see who catches the pheasant
for this year's dumpling soup.

We're gonna bag a big one.
I can feel it in my bones, huh?

Let's go! [laughs]

-[Vice-Chairman Hong] Let's get moving.
-[Man-dae chuckles]

[birds chirping]

[exhales impatiently]

Try to shoot something today.

There's a reason Grandfather brings us out
hunting in the mountains every year.

-So, shoot. It's important that you do.
-What reason is that?

So we can stand here and clap,

saying, "Wow, you hit the biggest duck."
when he clearly didn't?

[chuckles] In hunting,
you need more than physical strength.

You need instinctive judgment
and cold determination.

Which just so happens to be
the virtues of an effective CEO as well.

So is that why you catch
so much every year?

To prove to your grandfather
you have what it takes to be CEO?

Yes, of course.

-And this year is gonna be no different.
-[sighs]

[Hyun-woo] Oh, would you slow down?

[suspenseful music playing]

Yes, I put it in place.

Yes, on the course, right in the middle.

WILD BOAR HABITAT

RESTRICTED AREA
PROPERTY OWNED BY QUEENS

[suspenseful music continues]

[music fades]

[line ringing]

Where did she go off to?

[automated voice]
The person you are calling cannot...

[sighs]

[birds chirping and cawing]

[rustling]

[tense music playing]

Oops.

Thought you were an elk.

What are you doing here?

This isn't your course, Mr. Yoon.

Oh, is that so?

It's still new to me.

Then perhaps you're unaware

that straying of someone else's territory
can get you killed.

There's a lot I don't know.
I guess I'll have to stick around.

Maybe I can learn from you.

[water lapping]

[music intensifies]

-[elks screeching]
-[music fades]

[tense music resumes]

You don't get to do anything
in someone else's territory.

You wanted to learn?
That's your first lesson.

[chuckles softly]

[music fades]

[exhaling deeply]

Oh, come on.

It's just pheasant dumplings.

That's all it is.

Pheasant dumplings.

Pheasant soup.

[pheasant caws]

[sighs]

[groans]

[breathing heavily]

[sighs]

[eerie music playing]

[sighs]

This isn't real. Get a hold of yourself.

Get it together, Hae-in.

[inhales deeply] Get yourself together.

[animal growling]

[foreboding music playing]

-[animal growls]
-[breathing shakily]

[snarls]

[music intensifies]

[pensive music playing]

What do you think?

[Hae-in] I am going to die.

I only have three months left.

I love you, Hong Hae-in.

I love you.

-[snarls]
-[intense music playing]

[cocks gun]

[snarls]

[gunshot echoes]

[wild boar screeches]

["The Reasons Of My Smiles"
by BSS playing]

You okay?

[exhales in relief]

[panting softly]

[breathing heavily]

[Mi-seon] You turned down
all good options.

Like the clerk, the music teacher.

Are you dead set on being the sole earner?

You said she's gonna get fired
from her internship.

You can't marry someone without a job.

I don't want to influence you, but how can
you buy a house in Seoul on one income?

Oh. I don't know.

I already have a son who is
a law graduate from Seoul University.

I don't need
a wealthy daughter-in-law as well.

As long as she's not from a family
that's a lot worse off than we are,

-I think it's fine.
-Yeah, you're right.

I've never felt this way before.

I find myself

worrying for her.

Like, why she keeps wearing
clothes with holes in them?

Or if she's off somewhere
kicking a photocopier again.

Or if someone is
badmouthing her somewhere.

I can't even eat a nice meal anymore
without wanting to share with her.

It's just that

I'm so crazy about her sometimes,

I think I could die.

[Bong-ae sighs]

Then marry her.

-Honey.
-Mom.

-Ma.
-He said he'll die without her.

Hey, it's a lot better than dying.

Well, sure, it is better
than him dying, I guess.

Yeah, I'm doing it.

I'm going to marry her.

And protect her for the rest of my life.

[chuckles]

QUEEN OF TEARS

[song continues]

[Hae-in] Is it normal for a woman's heart
to start racing when she sees her husband,

even if they've been together
for over three years?

Oh.

[Hyun-woo] The barbed wire
around it had been cut.

[Eun-sung] Do you really believe
that he loves you, Hae-in?

[Hae-in] Yes, completely.

[Hyun-woo] Usually, you can't
hate someone when they laugh,

but this guy is an exception.

I'm going to kill everyone who betrayed me
and stabbed me in the back.

So, watch out. This isn't over.

-[yelps]
-[laughs]

-[Hae-in] Don't you worry.
-[screaming]

[Hyun-woo] It was because I was scared.
My heart was actually pounding.
