(The Final Episode)
Mi Rae.
Kang San.
You woke up.
How are you feeling? Are you all right?
Yes.
I had no idea...
that you were the donor.
Jan Di was having such a hard time,
so I wanted to help in whichever way I could.
And thankfully, I was a match,
so I was able to donate my bone marrow.
Thank you.
Kang San.
Do you really...
have no feelings left for me?
Every time I see you,
my heart still flutters like this.
I'm...
For me...
Take good care of yourself,
and best of luck while studying abroad.
And really,
thank you for everything.
I heard your morning sickness was pretty bad,
so I picked out the ones with tangy flavors for you.
Gosh, I guess everyone in the neighborhood now knows that I'm pregnant.
Oh, right. Did Jan Di's sister's surgery go well?
Yes, it went very well.
My gosh. I'm so glad to hear that.
Well, shall I tell you this or not?
What is it, Ms. Dong?
Well, the thing is...
The person who donated bone marrow to Jan Di's sister was...
What?
Who was it?
It was...
Sun Ju, Ms. Ok was the one who donated her bone marrow to Jenny.
Ms. Ok saved Jenny's life.
(Commercial Lease Agreement)
Mother.
What is this?
It's a lease agreement.
You said you wanted to open your own restaurant.
If I gave you money, you'd never accept it.
So I signed a lease for a restaurant space.
Mother.
I can't accept this.
You've supported and protected the family...
for well over a decade. Compared to that, this is nothing.
Now that you and Sun Ju have completely ended things,
you can move out and open a restaurant, which is what you've always wanted to do.
But how are you going to manage the store all by yourself?
What? I don't have to do it alone. I have Ye Ju, you know.
Oh, that's right. You told me... Remember?
The thing you signed me up for, saying small business owners like us...
really needed it.
Oh, that.
Yes. Thanks to you, I've been putting money into it every month.
So even if the business doesn't do well, I'll be fine.
I can take the money out and spend it as my retirement income.
So don't worry about a thing.
Just start afresh and live your own life.
That reminds me. You heard Sun Ju was going back to the US, right?
Yes, I heard.
What did Jan Di say?
Well, she hasn't...
really said anything yet.
I'm sure Jan Di will want to stay here with you.
You must've been surprised when I called you out of the blue.
Why did you want to see me?
Jan Di's dad and I have completely ended things,
and I'm going back to the US.
I've already signed the divorce papers.
Is that so?
But why are you telling me this in person?
The person who donated bone marrow to my sick daughter was...
Ms. Ok Mi Rae, your daughter.
What did you say?
Is that really true?
Yes.
Mi Rae...
still loves Kang San and Jan Di very much.
If that wasn't the case,
she would've never helped someone like me.
That can't be.
I don't understand why Mi Rae did such a thing.
I wanted to thank you, at least.
Also, I heard...
Mi Rae was your adopted daughter.
Yes, what about it?
The truth is, Jan Di...
isn't Kang San's child.
What?
I was pregnant with her before I married Kang San,
and he kindly embraced her.
Are you saying...
Mr. Geum raised your daughter all by himself,
knowing she wasn't his child?
Yes, that's right.
That guy, Geum Kang San...
He's a much better person than you think he is.
So...
please reconsider Mi Rae's relationship with him...
in a good light.
Please, ma'am.
How's Jenny doing? She's recovering well, right?
Yes, she'll be discharged tomorrow.
Sun Ju will go back to the US this weekend...
with Jenny.
Then what is Jan Di going to do?
Has she not said anything yet?
What will you do...
if Jan Di decides...
to follow her mother?
You know, I've been thinking.
And I'm realizing I've done nothing for her.
Besides, I'm not even her real father.
I'm not good enough to be her father.
I don't think I can stop her, Sang Soo.
My goodness.
What do you mean you've done nothing for her?
It's all thanks to you that she grew up so well.
Sang Soo.
You know, to be honest...
I really want to tell Jan Di not to leave me.
I really want to stop her from leaving me, but...
Dad.
- Hey. - Goodness. Speak of the devil.
- Dad. - Yes.
I need to talk to you and Mom about something.
Okay, what is it about?
Well, I don't want to talk about it here.
Mom's on her way here now,
so let's all go somewhere and talk.
What?
Your mom is coming?
Yes.
My goodness. I'm scared, for some reason.
Jan Di.
Just tell us.
Yes.
I will respect your decision, whatever it may be.
Even if you decide to leave me.
I want...
to stay here.
But...
I'll visit you often, Mom.
Would you do that?
Yes.
Dad needs me.
Dad can't do anything without me.
Jan Di.
He'll wear socks with holes and old, worn-out shoes.
If I'm not around,
he'll dress even more shabbily than he does now,
so I should stay here and take care of him.
Of course,
I really want to live with you and Jenny too, Mom.
But right now, I must stay with Dad.
I'm sorry, Mom.
All right. It's not like I'll never see you again.
I can jump on the plane and come and see you.
And...
Jan Di.
I'm the one who should apologize to you.
As you know,
I owe you an apology for so many things.
Mom.
That's not why I decided not to go with you.
Besides,
I'm just so happy that you came back to me.
Really?
Yes, really. Do you think I'm lying?
Kang San.
Please take good care of Jan Di.
Mom, what are you talking about? I have to take care of Dad.
Okay. All right.
Oh, Dad.
I want to sleep at Mom's place tonight. That's okay, right?
Sure.
Kang San.
Thank you.
(Vacant)
Don't cry just because I'm not at home, Dad.
Have a good time with your mother.
Let's go.
Hey, Ho Sik.
- Kang San, did you know? - What?
Ms. Ok is leaving for Italy tomorrow.
Hey, are you there?
Yes, I am listening.
Once she leaves, you'll never see her again.
Hey, will you be all right?
Ask her to stay so you won't have any regrets later.
Ho Sik, let's talk another time.
Kang San.
Mi Rae, what are you doing here?
I was on my way to your store to see you.
Hold on. Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
Anyway, what's up?
My mom told me everything today.
You were cold to me...
and pushed me away so I'd leave you.
Why did you do that?
If you stay with me,
your life...
will become miserable. That's why.
No, that is not true.
And my mom approves of our relationship now.
It doesn't matter.
Even if Ms. Hwang approves of me now,
we can't be together.
Get home safely.
Fine!
If leaving me like a coward...
is what you truly want, go for it!
If you can be happy without me,
and if leaving me will give you peace of mind, you do that!
But I know...
that I'll never be happy without you, Kang San.
I really can't let you go, Kang San.
(3 months later)
(Hwang Dong Food)
Well done.
Thank you.
Ye Ju, did the interview go well?
I'm not sure. I did my best.
You worked hard to prepare for it, so we can expect some good results.
Yes.
Oh, right. When can I meet your family?
Well...
That's right. Kang San is coming back from his honeymoon today,
so I'll invite you over soon.
Oh. Hello, sir.
Oh, weren't you in the final interview earlier?
Yes. That's right, sir.
I really liked your idea about launching porridge products for kids.
Thank you for remembering my idea, sir.
The other interviewers all liked her idea, sir.
- Is that right? - Yes.
Anyway, Mr. Eun. Why are you here?
Do you two know each other?
The thing is, she's my sister-in-law.
She's your sister-in-law?
Father.
Ye Ju is also...
my girlfriend.
What did you say?
Hello, please allow me to introduce myself properly.
I'm Lee Ye Ju, Ju Hyuk's girlfriend.
Kang San. You're coming back today, right?
I'll cook a whole chicken for you. Come straight home.
What?
Okay. All right, then.
Bye.
Goodness. Does he not know who his real mother-in-law is?
Why, Mom? What did he say?
Kang San said...
they had to stop by Jan Di's grandmother's place first.
My goodness. Of course, they should visit her first.
They'll live here with us, you know.
Then I should call Jan Di's father "Uncle" from now on, right?
Yes, you should. He's our family now.
Right. Then...
how should I address him from now on?
He's my brother-in-law now, right? Wait, is he my cousin-in-law?
Goodness. I'm so confused.
Let me say it out loud and see how it sounds.
"Brother-in-law, welcome home."
"My dear brother-in-law, welcome home."
- Gosh, that sounds so awkward. - That was really awkward.
Hi, Kang San. You and Mi Rae are having a good time, right?
I see.
I heard there was...
a famous rice cake place there. Can you pick some up for me?
My Miracle wants some.
I was going to get some for you anyway.
Miracle will be born soon, so I'll buy some seaweed too.
My gosh. Thank you, Kang San. All right. See you later.
Honey, I have such an amazing son-in-law.
Kang San is the best son-in-law in the whole wide world.
Kyu Sun, I'm sorry...
that we have to start out in this tiny rented room.
Gosh, don't say that.
I'm incredibly happy that we can be together, Doo Ho.
- Can I listen to Miracle? - Oh, you want to?
My gosh.
I think our baby knows Daddy is here.
Miracle just kicked.
My gosh!
This is so cool.
Kang San.
I'm calling you first out of your three mothers-in-law, right?
What? No?
Anyway, I made braised short ribs for Ms. Ok.
I'm not sure if she'll like it though.
My gosh, braised short ribs? Mi Rae loves it, Mother.
Thank you.
Really?
All right.
Ms. Ma, let me talk to him too.
Goodness. One moment.
My goodness.
Hey.
Can I talk to my daughter-in-law?
Hi, Mi Rae. I only ask for one thing.
As soon as possible... You know.
So Jan Di can have a younger sibling.
Goodness.
Okay.
All right. I'll see you in a bit.
Gosh, you're already pressuring them to have a baby?
Mop the floor properly, will you?
(Hong Do's Side Dishes)
- Oh, hi. - Hello.
Hello, Mr. Geum.
- Hi, come on in. - It's good to see you guys.
We'd like two deluxe lunchboxes.
- Two. - Two deluxe lunchboxes?
Hurry.
Just give us a moment.
- Auntie Hong Do. - Yes.
Kang San is coming back from his honeymoon today, right?
Yes, he's coming back today.
That's right, Ho Rang. Thanks for hiring Mi Rae again.
I should thank her.
It really helps us out that she's back at the academy.
Anyway, Ho Rang.
Aren't you interested in remarrying?
- Remarrying? - Yes.
Why? Is there someone you want to set me up with?
Sang Soo said one of his co-workers at Hwang Dong Food...
was an eligible bachelor.
I see.
Is he handsome?
My goodness.
Ho Rang, I guess you like handsome men.
You didn't know?
My sister cares a great deal about looks.
I know that. She had a crush on Kang San.
Anyway, I don't know what he looks like,
but he owns two apartments.
He's not young though.
Oh, he's not young?
No.
What's there to hesitate? Raise your hand and say you'll do it.
- Gosh, if he owns apartments... - Hurry up and raise your hand.
Hey, but...
I need to know what he looks like.
Do you have a picture of him?
- A picture? - My goodness.
He owns two apartments. Why do you need to see a picture of him?
Right, two apartments.
- But how old is he? - Ho Sik.
I'm done calling my mothers-in-law.
I don't need to call anyone else, do I?
No.
Mi Rae.
You know, earlier...
Dad! My goodness.
Yes, hey.
Jan Di, why are you covering your eyes?
Did you see it?
Gosh.
This is why I didn't want to tag along on your honeymoon.
Anyway, you two. Go back to what you were doing.
I can go for a walk alone.
- No! - No!
We'll join you, Jan Di.
No, you both look really disappointed right now.
You brat, come here.
- You little... - Dad, that hurts.
Be careful!
My gosh!
Hey, watch your feet.
Gosh!
Oh, my. That was cold.
I have the two of you right next to me,
and I'll soon open my own restaurant.
I have nothing more to wish for.
Same here.
I'm so happy that I feel like this is a dream.
What?
Mom just texted me.
Check the message.
Mom says she sincerely congratulates you two on getting hitched.
Oh, Dad. Can I visit Mom during my winter break?
Of course. You can visit your mom and Jenny whenever you want to see them.
But your permission won't do, Dad.
Don't I need my stepmom's permission too?
Jan Di.
Jan Di, did you just call Mi Rae...
your mom?
Yes.
Mom. I can call you "Mom" from now on, right?
Yes, of course.
Here.
- Dad. - Yes.
Mom.
Thank you for being my mom and dad.
And thank you for being my daughter.
I love you, Jan Di.
Me too.
I love you very much too, my dear daughter.
- Go play some more. - Okay.
Oh, look at that.
Watch your feet!
(Thank you for watching Apple of My Eye.)
