How is it?
It's good.
I'm relieved.
I've been living alone for too long...
that I'm pretty good with Korean cuisine.
But I wasn't confident with this.
Even though it may look simple,
it's hard to make pasta, so...
I'm talking too much. Go ahead and eat.
You should eat some too, Jeong Wook. It's really good.
Okay.
I'll leave when you go in.
You should leave first.
(Be My Dream Family)
(Episode 118)
Why did you come to see me this late at night?
You didn't pick up your phone, so we got worried.
I didn't know because it was on silent.
Why would you worry about me? I'm doing fine.
How could you do this to me, Mom?
What? What do you mean?
Oh, you mean him?
He's just someone I know,
and he dropped by to give me something.
Did you think I'd be upset?
Why would you lie? He's your boyfriend, right?
No, it's...
Mom, congratulations. I'm so happy for you.
Congratulations, Mother. You two looked great together.
Right.
Weren't you surprised?
Heon, are you sure you're okay?
I was surprised,
but it's natural for you to have a boyfriend when you're this cool.
What is he like? Where did you meet him? Tell me.
How did you two meet each other?
Heon, you're really okay, right?
What? About Mom?
Of course. I'm kind of relieved.
I'm so happy with you,
but it bothered me that Mom doesn't have anyone by her side.
You worried about her a lot too.
But now that she has a boyfriend,
she'll be happier, so I'm relieved.
Me too. They looked great together though, right?
Why don't we ask them to hang out with us next time?
Or is it too soon?
I'll ask Mom.
Okay, let's do that. I'll go wash first.
Okay. Take this off.
- See you later. - Okay.
Sol, I need to leave now because I have an early class.
Grandpa will take you to school today.
Oh, okay.
Gosh, you woke up too early.
If you don't have to go to the bathroom, you can sleep more.
- Mom. - Yes?
Then are you free this afternoon?
Yes. I'll pick you up after school.
Then come with me.
What? To where?
- I'll do it. - Here.
Are you feeling better?
Should we go see a doctor?
No, it's fine.
My condition hasn't been stable.
It's me.
Oh, come on in.
- Hey. - Hi.
Mom, how are you feeling?
I'm okay. I'm doing fine.
Why would you check up on me every morning?
She had it hard all night. She only got better in the morning.
What?
Gosh, what's wrong?
This is why I check up on you every day. Go see a doctor today.
Goodness. I should've been careful with what I eat,
but I've been having a big appetite.
I ate too much last night,
so my stomach feels a bit heavy. That's all.
It'll get better with medicine.
Oh, right. You need to take the morning pills. I'll bring water.
- I'll get it. - It's okay.
Stay. She doesn't need to see a doctor.
I've been watching, and she wasn't in great pain.
Just massage her so that her blood will circulate better.
Okay.
You're so much work, Mom.
- Are you being hard on me? - That's right.
Gosh, I'll be busy all day, and I'll be home late later.
I'll be worried about you all day.
Goodness, you. I went to see a doctor yesterday.
He said I was recovering so well,
so he wants to start chemo with me next week.
Of course, you should.
Mom.
Yes?
Oh, it's nothing. I'll tell you when things are more certain.
About what? What's there to be certain?
I'll tell you later.
Stretch your legs now.
You need more strength in your legs to walk better.
Oh, sure.
Here.
Are you going to work already?
Yes. I have a seminar on children's literature today.
I'm the only one going though.
Then I guess you can't come with me to Sang Baek's restaurant.
I heard Geu Roo and everyone else is going.
Right. I don't think I can make it.
Get in. I'll take you to your club.
No, it's fine.
Okay, then. I'll take the offer.
- Welcome. - Hello.
- Come on in. - How have you been?
- There are so many people. - Hello.
- Everyone came to help. Hello. - Right.
This is included in their office hours.
You're donating with our company.
Goodness, you've prepared a lot.
You're quite generous.
Since I wanted to do it, I prepared a few days' worth.
I'm going to donate regularly from now.
Oh, my. Really?
But it's going to cost you a lot. Will you be okay with it?
Just let him be.
Who can stop him when he wants to do it?
She agreed to do it with me.
I'm grateful that Si Woon told me the right people that need our help.
Goodness, not at all.
He's got quite a connection, that's why.
Oh, right. Min Ah, is it okay for you to be working?
My due date isn't anytime soon, so it's fine.
I can't help with the delivery, so I'm only helping with preparation.
That's right. She's going home right after this.
Shall we get started then?
- All right. - Come this way.
This way.
You can take them.
Gosh, it's so nice to have so many helping hands.
- They look so good. - I should make more lunchboxes.
- Right? - Yes, there's more inside.
- Don't forget to take these. - Of course.
(Daddy's)
- See you. - See you later.
- This is huge. - See you.
Mr. Geum.
I'm sorry. I made a big mistake.
Sorry? About what?
I heard from Ms. Min that you two are getting married.
Sorry?
I hit on her without knowing that.
I'm really sorry.
But I gave up on her already.
I'll make sure not to make either one of you uncomfortable.
We're going with Mr. Hyun. Let's go.
What was that, seriously?
You rejected him flatly, but you didn't even tell me.
- My gosh. - Seriously.
You can store the lunchboxes in the freezer,
and you can reheat them before you eat.
This is braised short ribs and stir-fried vegetables.
You can have it now, or you can reheat it later.
Our restaurant is called Daddy's.
It's by the intersection...
past the elementary school.
You can come with your grandpa when you're done with the food.
Or you can come alone and take a new batch, okay?
Okay. I'll go with my grandpa.
Sure. You can come anytime.
Sir, you're always welcome.
- I wish we could do this often. - Me too.
- Go and hug Min Ah instead. - Son.
- Oh, Grandma. - Son.
Here.
- Goodness. - Share it with your friends.
It's okay. You can have it.
Grandma, we'll be back.
That's right. We'll come back. Next time, we'll get you candies.
The owner of this restaurant will continue to distribute lunchboxes.
So you can have as much as you want.
She's someone I love.
Right.
What was that? What did you tell her?
She said you looked like an ostrich.
So I agreed.
What? No way. She only looked at me.
Yes.
How do you say "Enjoy your food" in sign language?
You can just say it. She can read your lips.
Ma'am, enjoy the food, and I hope you'll be healthy.
Ma'am.
I can't come for a while.
You shouldn't skip your meals and stay well, okay?
Since when did you start volunteering?
Did you always know how to use sign language?
Well, it's been quite a while.
Geu Roo, you have more to know about me.
I guess you're right.
You can always come back.
When you come back, that is.
I should.
Well, I'm on good terms with the social worker,
so if I send them my photos, they'll show them to her.
So many beautiful women miss me, you see.
Oh, by beautiful women, you meant them?
Yes. Let's go meet another one.
It's over there, right?
Yes.
(The late Min Byung Hyun)
Hi, Dad. How have you been?
It looks like his tree became more beautiful.
I guess so.
Did you miss your dad?
Yes.
I wrote a letter to him,
but I want to read it to him only.
Can you give us a minute?
Sure.
Hi, Dad. It's me, Sol.
I'm sorry that I didn't come more often.
I've been meaning to come,
but I got way busier after entering elementary school.
You've been watching me from above, right?
Dad, I'm really happy these days.
Grandma is a lot healthier,
and Grandpa adores me.
Oh, is that so?
You should've told me.
It's not like I can't help.
Okay, then. I'll talk to her.
All right. Take care.
What is it? What is Sang Baek up to?
He's donating lunchboxes.
Gosh, he can be nosy.
He's tight on money himself.
That's awesome.
Why would you call that being nosy?
Sang Baek will be blessed.
He should be.
No matter how unfair the world is,
someone like him deserves a blessing.
That's right. It looks like things are working out for everyone.
It'd be great if things continued to be nice like these days.
Sang Gu!
Have they lost their minds?
How can they use them as their cameos in the first week?
Also, how did they cast them?
The CEO of the production company and the agency CEO are best friends.
What do we do?
The drama that will air...
at the same time and on the same day...
got top stars as their cameos.
Are you sure about this? How come no word got out about it?
It was strictly confidential until the end.
They're going to publish articles about it. What should we do?
Darn it! This isn't right!
Once we lose in the first week, we'll be done with it.
Let's invite one ourselves. Do you know anyone?
Wait a minute.
I'll give you a list of actors. Check their schedules.
Yes, sir.
Director Geum.
Gosh, this is driving me crazy.
Wait. Ma Dong Seok. He's abroad for a shoot.
Gosh. What is it?
Take a seat.
Can't you see we're in a crisis? What is it?
Just take a seat.
Director Geum, aren't you confident with your work?
So what if they invited top stars?
We can compete with what we got.
But that's not how reality is like.
Let's say you're a viewer. It looks like both dramas will be fun.
But one got top stars.
Which one would you choose to watch?
I understand. People may be drawn to it at first.
But in the end, they'll choose a drama that's more fun.
I've read all of their scripts.
But ours is way better.
Director Geum.
I know that you're worried about our drama...
not being received well.
I know that you're conscious of people's eyes on you...
who might be wishing that you'll fail this time...
since all your works have been successful.
But I'm sure it'll do well.
But still, if we failed to gain attention in the first week...
Fine. Let's say that we did.
Let's say that we failed to gain attention all the way.
So what? Will your world crumble?
Will you get fired? Will I have to stop my career as an actress?
No, that's not fair.
Why not?
Just because you fail in one, doesn't mean your life is ruined.
It'd be nice if it did well,
but even if it didn't do well, it wouldn't matter.
You can just think this can happen and get over it.
You told me not to fuss over our son.
You should also not fuss over work.
We've worked really hard.
We're still working hard.
Don't be afraid when nothing happened. You look less charming.
You're way more charming...
when you hold your head up high and are full of confidence.
You're right. I'll just face them head-on.
It'll be fine as long as we're the last ones smiling.
That's what I'm talking about. That's how I like my Sang Gu.
There aren't any leftovers, right? They're all given out?
- Yes. - Yes.
Then you can go home after wrapping up the afternoon work.
- Good work. - Good work.
- Good work today. - You did well.
Hey, Mom.
I just got back to the office.
How are you feeling? Did you go see a doctor?
Are you sure you don't have to?
Okay. Oh, what about your pills?
Okay, I'll call you later. Bye.
Goodness. You said she was doing okay.
Why would you keep worrying about her?
I can't help but feel anxious.
She always says she's fine, so I can't trust her.
Hearing her voice reassures me the most.
Hello. This is Han Geu Roo.
Yes.
Okay.
All right. Thank you.
What was that? Was it...
Yes. I passed.
They'll take me as their senior editor.
They want to negotiate the terms with me sometime soon.
I knew you'd make it!
Of course, you'd make it.
Geu Roo, let's go camping.
What? When?
Today. We should go celebrate it.
Let's go by ourselves today.
- Okay? - So suddenly?
Fine. We should celebrate it.
What did Sol tell you?
I shouldn't read it, right?
You've been well, haven't you?
You've been resting well, right?
So many things happened to us.
Mom was really sick,
but she's getting better, so you don't have to worry.
Oh, right. Ga Eun is getting married.
Your baby sister is getting married.
Ga Eun will share this with you later,
so I won't go into details.
Also,
I'm...
I'm sorry.
That's the only thing I can say.
I'm sorry.
Mom.
Oh, you're here.
Wasn't it scary to go to the bathroom alone?
Of course not. I'm all grown up. I can go to the bathrooms alone.
I even washed my hands.
Don't cry.
Mom. Dad said he was fine with it.
When I read him the letter,
he replied to me through his heart.
And he said...
it's okay for you to like someone else.
He said he was fine with it.
I'm serious.
I heard it through my heart.
Dad just wants you and me to be happy.
He doesn't want us to be in grief, missing him.
You need to be happy so that I can be happy.
So don't be sorry, okay?
I'm sorry.
Are you seriously going to be like this?
I apologized. I told you I was at fault.
I'm not doing this because you did something wrong.
You had it hard when you lived with me.
Let's not repeat our mistake, okay?
What about Yi Jae?
I sent my son away because I was dying to get remarried,
but I ended up getting dumped.
Now I'm separating him from his dad...
whom he got attached to.
That's the kind of mom I am to him.
I'm a horrible mom.
How can I ever face him again?
You're not a bad mom.
I know how much you cherished our son.
You only wanted to find your happiness...
because you were lonely.
You have more than enough rights to be happy.
You can meet someone better. And you will.
Go inside and talk to Yi Jae.
Did you talk with your mom?
What did you decide to do?
- I'm sorry. - No, don't say that.
It's only natural.
You can live with your mom.
I'm okay.
Of course, I want to live with you,
but you spent more time with her.
I'm sure that'll be better for you.
The fact...
that we love you the most will not change.
When you start living with your mom,
we can see each other twice every month.
We can meet on weekends.
What if I want to see you on other days?
What if I want to spend more time with you?
I'll discuss that with your mom.
Gosh, it's hot.
I couldn't show my real ability because they're not my tools.
I didn't dress for camping because we came camping on a whim.
In the States, there's a camping ground in the wild.
Who am I talking to? What are you doing?
Oh, I'm listening. Go on.
Gosh, why would you stare at your phone when we're camping?
I wanted to write down the things I need to do before leaving.
I should write them down when they pop up in my mind.
What do you have to do?
It's nothing big. Just trivial things.
I need to follow up on my mom's condition,
so I need to check her test results while she takes her chemo.
I need to ask Mr. Geum to write me a note in detail.
Since the doctor is Sang Gu's acquaintance,
I can ask Sang Gu.
Also, I might miss Ga Eun and Sang Min's wedding,
so I should give them a gift in advance.
I manage all my family members' insurance,
so I need to pass it on to Da Bal.
Oh, we also have a savings account,
so should I change the holder?
Gosh, there are just so many things to do.
I can't even remember all of them.
Oh, there's Sol.
She's the first reader of Arang Publishing.
She loves reading manuscripts.
I should ask Ji Wan to keep sharing manuscripts with her.
Also...
Never mind.
The first thing I need to do is to tell my family...
that I'm leaving for the States.
I'm sure my mom will be glad.
Let's drink. Eat up.
Okay.
- Geu Roo. - Yes?
You should...
just stay.
You should just stay in Korea.
