Jun Seok is my string.
I'll go up in any way.
(A month later)
(Episode 3)
I listened to the new DJ to check.
And it was unbelievable.
The whole script was full of backbiting.
I figured how shallow that broadcasting station...
would be hiring such a person.
Yu Ra,
you don't need to be discouraged nor disappointed at all.
I'm not.
It's a mere DJ of local radio.
It's nothing important.
So stop being awkward.
You're my big sister indeed.
Just wait and see. I'm sure...
they will regret missing you out.
You're a hard worker so there'll be...
a much better place that'll recognize you.
Yu Jung, how are things at the new work?
Riding a bike is pretty dangerous.
I put safety first always.
I'm driving with care so don't worry, Dad.
It's dangerous...
for a girl to deliver with a motorcycle.
You should've kept working at the cafe.
Why did you quit all of a sudden?
You guys are a twin,
but you two have totally different personalities.
It's quite amazing.
Anyway, be careful.
I will.
- Yu Ra! - What's with her?
She's acting cool, but she must be devastated.
She'd feel like crap.
Gosh, are you okay?
Are you that sick?
Do you want me to get you a pill?
No, Mom. I'm fine.
Congratulations. You're four weeks along.
What's this?
Right.
It happened that day at your place.
I'm four weeks along.
Are you surprised?
Sorry?
Well, no. It's not like that.
It doesn't matter to me.
I'll do as you want me to do.
What do you mean?
It's been less than a year...
since we start dating.
I know that you'll go back to Seoul after you're done with this job.
I don't want to hold you back with this.
- So... - I'm sorry.
Is that what you thought while waiting for me?
I guess I couldn't give you enough trust.
I'm sorry.
Jun Seok.
How's your health? Are you well?
Let's set up a meeting with parents.
What occasion do you have to call me?
I was thinking of...
establishing a town for the disabled in our foundation.
- Town for the disabled? - Yes.
Like a silver town, a facility for disabled people who are not...
cared for by their guardian's death and various problems.
It sounds great.
Those are the problems the guardian's worry.
It deserves development.
Do you think so?
I couldn't see you at the last meeting,
but I guess you were busy with this great plan.
Come in.
Honey.
What is it?
I came by after meeting someone from the foundation.
I have...
Do you ever take me seriously?
Sorry?
I told you not to come to my office without a decent reason.
We've just talked about it a few days ago.
I came by for business.
There has been a talking...
about creating a disabled town at the foundation.
I thought it was a good idea...
and came by to discuss it with you.
You didn't even listen to me to the end.
- Honey. - I should go.
I'd like this one.
It's pretty.
I don't notice this design.
- Is it new? - Yes.
This is a new product.
Okay. I'll have this one too.
Excuse me.
I already picked this one.
Is that so?
But you didn't buy it yet.
Yes, but I was going to.
Manager Lim.
Are you really going to buy this?
Pardon?
You were just taking things out since you came.
Also, this is the most expensive one out of you picked.
What are you trying to say?
Do I look I can't afford it?
- I was just thinking... - I'm going to buy it.
Hand it to me.
My gosh, what's wrong with that woman?
I can't believe it.
(Yoohan Card)
How much is this?
What? 5,000 dollars?
Mom, where are you now?
I'm at home, obviously.
Did you lose the card I gave you by any chance?
I gave it to your sister.
So she can meet her friends and have some nice meals.
I'm home.
What are those?
How much did you spend?
You spend over 6,000 dollars. Are you crazy?
Hey.
I bought them because I needed them. What do you care?
That card you used is mine.
I gave it to Mom so she could spend on living expenses.
Is that right?
I just used it since Mom gave it to me.
I had no idea it was yours.
She's right. I gave it to her.
Your sister was having a hard time...
so I gave it to refresh herself.
How refreshing does it have to be to spend over 6,000 dollars?
Get them refunded tomorrow.
Refund?
These aren't even that expensive.
What a drama queen.
What did you say?
I'll pay you back so don't worry.
- Yu Ra! - Hey.
That's enough.
I'll pay you so stop.
I'll pay you even if I have to borrow money!
- Just stop. - Mom!
Geez, is she showing off or what?
Just wait and see.
I'll repay it in
You look beautiful as always.
That's good to hear.
I was so nervous all along.
My mom's not a difficult person.
By the way, what's this?
It's wild ginseng.
I had to get something special...
since I'm seeing your parents for the first time.
- Wild ginseng? - Yes.
I thought clothing and cosmetics wouldn't...
be appropriate since I don't know her taste.
And no matter how I rack my brain for the present,
it may not satisfy your mother.
What?
- Let's go inside. - Okay.
Jun Seok, is this your where your family lives?
No. We have to walk a little more.
Jun Seok, are we there yet?
We just have to go a few steps more. Come on.
It must be hard walking in those heels. Be careful.
Yu Ra!
Are you all right?
Here, hold me.
Did you hear that?
Producer Choi's family is part of the Samo Group.
Do you know the most affluent neighborhood in Chuncheon?
They live in a penthouse there.
He drives a 20-year-old compact car to not show it off.
But is that something one can hide?
He was discovered right away.
Are you sure we don't need to go to the hospital?
Are you really all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
I told Mom we'll be late a bit.
But what is it that you have to say?
Well...
Is that town really where your family lives?
Yes. We've been living there since I was a middler.
Why do you ask?
Your family...
What does your mother do?
Haven't I mentioned?
Not long ago, she worked in the elementary school cafeteria.
But she's taking a break because of her back.
After splitting up with Dad,
she never stopped working for me and my siblings.
Then,
what's up with the house that you're living now?
What do you mean?
Oh, that house.
It's my colleague's house.
Jung Hoon also worked with me in Chuncheon.
His family runs a subsidiary company of Samo Group.
He bought that house to use it as a summer house.
Gratefully, he let me stay there since I was appointed to Chuncheon.
Are you okay?
Hold on.
Yu Ra.
Where did she go?
This can't be true.
What do I do now?
What am I supposed to do?
It's all done.
Could I get a photo of me alone?
Just you alone?
Yes.
Mom, why are you taking a photo by yourself?
Here we go. Put on a gentle smile.
I'm taking it in 1, 2, 3.
One, two, three.
You want to match my son with someone?
Yes. I heard that her family is struggling financially.
Both her parents have their hearings impaired.
Even now, she's the breadwinner for her family...
and even pays for her sibling's college tuition.
I guarantee she's a nice person.
She's cheerful, bold, and a hard worker.
Nice to meet you. I'm Song Ji Yeon.
I'm Lee Kyung Hye. It's a pleasure to meet you.
I hear that you turned 26 this year.
Yes.
Manager Yoon tells me that your parents have a disability.
They were both born with hearing disabilities.
How are you acquainted with Manager Yoon?
I met her while working a part-time job.
Do you know what she set up this meeting for?
Yes, I'm aware.
I'm sorry if I offended you.
Not at all.
What do you do for a living then?
I work as a bookkeeper during the weekdays...
and in a clothing shop in a mall during the weekends.
It's impressive to work without a break.
Isn't it exhausting?
It wasn't easy for my parents to raise me with their disabilities.
I should repay them as they worked hard...
for me up until now.
You should stop now. It's your free day after all.
Sang Hyeon won't let me eat if I don't do this.
It's so hard to get a free meal.
That's why you should get married.
I'm back.
Hey.
It's so hot.
It still feels like midsummer.
By the way, where's Dad? Did he go somewhere?
He went to Seoul.
Why would he?
Did he go there again?
Why did you go to Seoul for, by the way?
It's because of my wife.
I went to a Center for missing persons.
Didn't you say that you had her DNA registered?
Even if it's not her family,
there might be someone else looking for her.
And I thought that I should keep showing myself up...
for the staff to take more care.
I'm sure you'll find them judging from the efforts...
- you're putting in. - Of course.
I should have acted sooner.
It's my fault.
What are you talking about now?
I should have searched for her family...
the moment I found her lying unconsciously,
but I couldn't.
I only found hope to continue on with life...
thanks to Su Hee, whom I met on my way to kill myself...
after my business went bankrupt.
But I was scared she would leave me.
I'm like the woodcutter...
who hid the fairy's winged-clothes.
As shameless as I am,
I still want to find her family.
What happened? You just disappeared.
Do you know how worried I was?
I thought about what you said...
after you left like that.
Did you think that my family...
You're right.
I thought you were a son from Samo Group.
That's why I went out with you.
Actually, no.
To be more precise,
I seduced you.
- Yu Ra. - Let me go first.
Let's breakup.
What?
Breakup?
What I needed was your background, not you.
But that background wasn't...
a rental home in a shanty town,
a sick mother,
and siblings who can't take care of themselves.
What about the baby?
What about the baby in your belly?
Don't worry about that. I'll take care of it.
You'll take care of it?
You...
Don't tell me you will...
It's not, is it?
Then what?
- Should I bear and raise the baby? - Yu Ra!
You must know better...
what poverty is like.
To be in constant fear,
anxiety, and frustration.
Do you want...
to pass that down to your children?
Not me.
Even still, that can't happen.
It cannot happen!
I've told you before...
that I like higher places.
Do you think the stairs to that shanty town is...
where I want to climb up to?
If I can climb out of this ditch,
I'll do anything.
That's all I have to say.
Yu Ra!
Yu Ra.
Yu Ra!
Yu Ra, don't do this.
Please think it over.
You shouldn't do this if you truly care for me.
That's enough.
Were you always this ruthless?
This is a crime!
I already looked into a hospital that will do the deed!
If I can't, I'll even go overseas to get an abortion.
Yu Ra.
So don't try to turn my mind as it won't work!
Stop it now!
- Yu Ra. - Let go of me!
Yu Ra!
- Oh, my gosh! - Someone got hit!
- Call 911! - Hold on.
- Call the police, I'll call 911! - What do we do?
No.
It's not my fault.
It wasn't because of me.
It wasn't.
Tae Poong, my name is Song Ji Yeon.
But Mom, why are you presenting her to me?
I want you to be good friends with each other.
Why do we have to be good friends?
Tae Poong, do you like Mickey Mouse?
Yes.
Mickey Mouse!
It opens.
Tae Poong, can you stay with Ji Yeon?
I have somewhere to go.
Okay.
Good.
I'll get going, then.
Mr. Han will come to pick you up later.
See you later.
Bye.
Do you like Mickey Mouse too, Ji Yeon?
Yes.
It's my favorite character.
Me too.
I also like Mickey Mouse the best.
Tae Poong, do you like tonkatsu?
Tonkatsu!
Should we go eat tonkatsu?
Yes, let's go!
Thank you.
Help yourself.
Let's go watch a movie after eating.
Okay!
Ji Yeon, you only want to do what I like to do.
It's delicious.
The dog isn't allowed in here.
It's a well-trained guide dog.
I'll eat quickly.
I told you, you can't.
You have to tie your dog outside.
Or else, leave.
He's a mean man.
- He's yelling. - I told you to leave now!
One second, Tae Poong.
What are you waiting for?
- Leave now. - Excuse me.
Yes?
It's not just a dog, but a guide dog.
Don't you know that guide dogs are allowed...
in any restaurants or places where pets are prohibited?
What did you say?
What you are doing now is illegal.
So take her order.
She's interrupting my business which is why I won't take her order.
What's illegal about that?
Should we have a talk with the police...
to check if it's illegal or not?
You must have had an exciting day.
What did you think of Ji Yeon, Tae Poong?
Ji Yeon is...
a good person.
- A good person? - Yes.
The man at the tonkatsu place yelled at a customer,
and Ji Yeon helped her out.
She was a blind customer...
just like Bo Seok at the welfare Center.
He tried to kick out her guide dog.
But Ji Yeon stopped him from doing so.
I see what happened.
I want you to get along with Ji Yeon.
Okay.
I like good people.
So,
Mrs. Lee is looking for a match for Tae Poong?
Not looking. They just met each other.
I heard...
that they ate and watched a movie together.
Right?
My goodness.
What are you so curious about?
Is Tae Poong going to get married, then?
How was the girl, Dad?
Is she pretty?
I didn't hear much,
but she seemed to be good-looking.
Is that important?
So what if she isn't pretty?
Tae Poong is in no place to be picky.
That girl is just like Sim Cheong.
Sim Cheong, who trades herself...
over 300 sacks of rice.
Sim Cheong?
Isn't it obvious?
What normal girl would want to marry Tae Poong?
It's not like the two have known each other for long either.
It's matchmaking.
She must see Tae Poong for his background.
I guess so.
You're always so quick-witted, Mom.
The girl's parents must be devastated.
If one of my children had to marry Tae Poong,
I wouldn't be able to live.
Geez, woman.
Yu Jung, why aren't you eating?
I'm just a bit tired.
I'm going to bed now.
It looks just like Yu Jung.
Yu Jung.
Excuse me,
how's the patient Choi Jun Seok?
Did he regain consciousness?
No, not yet. But who is this?
I'm nobody.
Maybe it's a good thing.
If I get an abortion now,
Jun Seok won't be able to do anything when he wakes up.
This is my chance.
(Woman's Clinic)
So...
I'm hoping to have an abortion as soon as possible.
I don't think it will be possible.
I'm sorry?
Your test result shows...
that you were born with a weak uterine wall.
Your womb will have to be removed for the operation.
(A Man in a Veil)
So she was Tae Poong's soon-to-be bride.
Mrs. Lee must like her to have her come to her house.
It feels like a waste of water to pour this on you!
What did you just say now? You crazy wench!
- Yu Jung. - Mrs. Lee.
Mom. Yu Jung.
He hasn't returned yet?
Why did you have to take him out for this to happen?
I don't want my child to live a life like mine.
This is the only way.
I will get out of this ditch no matter what.
