- I'm tired. - Me too.
I need to use the restroom.
Hurry. We'll head to the hotel after that.
Okay.
- I'll meet you here. - Okay.
Heon. Im Heon!
Out of the way!
- My bag! Give it back! - What happened?
My bag! Give me back my bag!
- This hurts... - Hey.
- My bag... - Hey, you're bleeding.
I'm bleeding?
My gosh, blood!
(Be My Dream Family)
It's not because he hates you.
He felt bad because he knew that you were worried.
I think he was scared that you'd scold him.
You understand, right?
He'll sleepover at my house just tonight,
so I hope your feelings aren't hurt.
I'm his parent.
Why would my feelings be hurt? Of course, I understand.
What? Come on. Parents can get their feelings hurt too.
When Sol only wants to hang out with Geu Roo and Ga Eun,
I get all jealous and sad.
I mean, she's my daughter.
It's natural to get jealous when she seems to like others more...
Oh, I'm not saying Yi Jae likes me and Sol more than you.
Gosh, where was I going with this?
Okay, I understand what you're trying to say.
You're right.
Parents can get their feelings hurt by their kids.
It's just that...
I don't deserve to get my feelings hurt.
Thank you for today.
I'm sorry for what Sol had to go through because of Yi Jae.
I'll pick him up in the morning.
Please take good care of him.
No problem. Oh, thank you.
Mr. Choi.
Since you publish children's books, you must know the story.
The story of the sun and the wind.
The sun was the one that made the man...
take off his cloak, you know.
He's at fault for going out without even telling you,
but now that he knows what he did was wrong,
I think he needs a warm father.
That's just what I think.
Get some rest.
Yi Jae, don't worry. Just get some sleep, okay?
Your dad isn't angry at all.
It's true.
I asked him, and he said he wasn't angry at all.
He thought he'd lost you, so he was very worried.
That's why he raised his voice at you even though he wasn't angry.
That's what happened.
You know,
there was a day when I was very sad...
because something sad had happened to me.
I was so sad.
But when I woke up from sleep,
half of my sadness was gone.
For real.
So I know you'll feel less sad when you wake up.
Just sleep. Then this night will pass.
Okay? Yes?
Thanks to Yi Jae, I get to sleep right next to my coy princess.
You always pretend to have fallen asleep and stay here anyway.
You knew?
I guess you love me,
seeing how you pretended not to know.
Well, a little?
Actually, no. A lot. To the moon and back.
I love you too.
I'm so happy.
- Mom, that's why... - What?
I think Yi Jae must've been very sad today.
I'm so happy because I have you, Mom.
But his mom suddenly disappeared from his life.
That's why I wanted to help him find his mom.
I'm sorry I worried you.
Right. You are at fault for that.
But you did the right thing.
It's mean to ditch your friend when he's struggling alone.
Han Da Bal's daughter should never do such a thing.
- Mom. - Yes?
When we lost Dad...
I mean, when he passed away unexpectedly,
was I as sad as Yi Jae is now?
I don't remember because I was too young back then.
If Dad passed away now,
I'd be sad too, just like Yi Jae is.
Right.
I don't want Yi Jae to be sad.
I mean, his mom didn't pass away,
which means they can meet again. Right?
That's right. She has a little bit of a situation.
They will meet again.
Mom.
To be honest, I've been sad because I've been thinking of Dad a lot.
What? Why? Did something happen?
We were on TV recently because of Aunt Min Hee, you know.
My friends saw it and found out that I don't have a dad.
And? Did they bully you? Did they make fun of you?
Why didn't you tell me?
No, they didn't.
They just said they felt bad for me.
"Sol doesn't have a dad."
They just said they pitied me.
But I'm fine now.
You told me...
that there are people who don't have parents,
and some could have just 1 or 2 parents.
You said everyone's situation is different.
You said it's nothing bad and that I shouldn't be embarrassed.
Sol, don't do this.
I mean, that is right.
But the fact of the matter is that you were sad at the time.
Cry when you're sad, and smile when you're happy.
And when you're angry, you can let it out.
Don't act like you're not sad because of me.
I told you that you have to openly express your feelings...
when you're with me and our family.
Don't keep it bottled up inside.
Okay, I won't.
That's why I'm telling you now. I was sad.
Mom! Tell me about Dad. It's been a while.
About how he made this.
You said he worked very hard on this...
while waiting for me to be born.
No. To tell you that story,
I have to start with the story of how I met your Dad.
Come on! I've heard that story too many times!
Please, not that story.
Hear it one more time.
(Sehan Hospital)
Honey, Young Hye!
Are you okay?
You fainted.
Do you remember?
Where's Min Ah?
Where is she?
Is Min Ah back?
No.
We're trying to find her.
We will find her, so don't worry.
- In Seo, go get the doctor. - Okay.
- Tell him she woke up. - Will do.
Dad, give her some water.
Right, water.
Honey.
I was so worried.
Are you really okay?
Hold on.
Why am I in this room?
Private rooms are very expensive.
You couldn't find any six-bed rooms that were available?
Come on. You're making me feel even worse.
There were no other rooms available. Just relax and get some rest.
My gosh.
What happened? My goodness.
It's nothing serious.
She called me to ask why no one was home.
Yes, I should know about these things.
The kids were nowhere to be found, so we were panicking yesterday.
Gosh, I should've checked in on you.
What? You couldn't get hold of the kids?
Min Ah also packed up and left...
Honey.
What? What do you mean? Min Ah packed up and left?
She's pregnant. Where on earth did she go?
Gosh, be careful.
Who left that wooden pillow there?
As they say, a world of trouble awaits you when you leave home.
I even got beaten up.
No one told you to let him take the bag.
He attacked me out of nowhere,
beat me up, and ran away with the bag, so I had no choice.
I've never let anyone hit me before,
except for the time when my mom slapped me on the back.
Whatever. Don't say anything.
You're making me hungry.
I'm starving too.
Let's get some gimbap.
No, we only have enough money to pay our fare.
We can stay here because I had stashed away a bit of cash.
Be patient.
Until when?
It's only been a day.
If we had to go back like this, I wouldn't even have left.
When my mom found out that I was pregnant,
I disappeared for half a day,
and my parents were worried sick about me.
Let's hold out for just one more day...
and call our parents tomorrow.
This is your chance, Ms. Secret Admirer.
What? Why are you suddenly talking about...
"Chance"? What do you mean?
Well, I don't really think you can use your unforeseen charms...
to make his heart flutter right now,
but you can try to win his heart in a different way.
He's dealing with a lot emotionally at the moment, you know.
What did you usually do at moments like this?
You either had no idea what he was going through...
or pretended not to know even if you knew about it, right?
But it's time you changed.
"You can lean on me."
"You can totally count on me."
"And you need me." Make him feel it.
So...
Ji Wan is upset because of Yi Jae, and you think I should use it?
"Use it"? No!
Lend your shoulder to a man who's in need of consolation.
Why? "Because I like you."
"It pains me to see you in pain."
Gosh, what was that?
You've watched too many soap operas.
My life has been like a soap opera.
This is all from experience.
Look, I can't do it even if I want to.
What can I do when he always says that he's fine?
That's why you need to bring it out of him.
Make him tell you how stressed he is and what's stressing him out.
You can comfort him after that.
"I see, that's what happened. I understand how you feel."
Then you've laid the groundwork.
If you want to be part of this man's life,
you have to plant some seeds...
on his heart, which is like a barren gravel field.
I wanted to get him excited first, but it'll be hard at the moment.
Let's make sure you can earn his trust first.
You understand that, right?
Well, it's not hard to understand.
But I guess you used to be into literature?
"Barren gravel field"?
You have a habit of using metaphors and symbols.
Don't suddenly hurt my feelings like this.
I used to be a playwright. A failed writer.
Right!
I saw your resume. I totally forgot about that.
Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
Well, I quit writing because I couldn't sit still.
I admit that I have no talent for writing.
But since I studied literature, you can trust...
my storytelling and psychoanalytic skills.
Let's make sure you can win Ji Wan's heart.
Deal?
Do you want coffee?
Pardon?
- You can drink this. - No, it's okay.
Take it.
Okay, thank you.
I'm playing billiards with Mr. Hyun and Seong Joon after work.
- Do you want to join us? - Oh, I'm...
Hello! Is the project going well?
Sorry? Oh, yes.
Excuse me.
What was that? He shies away whenever I try to talk to him.
Right? He ignored me when I asked him to play billiards with us.
He's so shy.
It's cute.
But he's a difficult one.
Hey, do you want this?
Thank you.
You said you were thirsty.
I thought you wanted an iced coffee.
Yes, I was going to make one but...
- Hey. - Yes.
It looks like everyone here is very close.
Yes, they're all easygoing.
You'll become friends with them soon.
Come on. I'm only here for a month.
I now understand how teachers feel.
When kids chat during class, they can see everything.
Look at you guys chatting away when you're supposed to be working.
It really bothers me.
Sorry.
What? Your pride is hurt?
The kids are gone.
My daughter and your son eloped.
How could you talk about your pride right now?
So you haven't even tried calling your son's friends...
to ask them if they know where he is and if they've seen him?
That's right.
He got a girl pregnant and eloped with her.
I don't want to advertise that.
He's lived very comfortably all his life.
I put all his cards on hold,
so he'll come back when he runs out of money.
But what if something happens to them?
Good for you that you have a son.
My daughter is pregnant, and her belly is getting big.
If they have to keep moving around, Min Ah...
What if something happens to Min Ah?
We're all parents. How could we think so differently?
Min Ah's mother fainted and is bedridden now.
The doctor said she fainted due to cardiomyopathy.
I asked him what it is, and he said it's caused by anger.
You feel like your heart is being torn to pieces,
and you can't even breathe.
She kept trying to hold out but ended up collapsing.
Had she been found later,
I would've lost my wife!
Even just yesterday, she held her head high...
and told me not to tell anyone.
So? What do you want me to do?
How are we going to catch them when they eloped?
That brat is determined to rebel against me anyway.
I've taken my hands off this matter, so you can deal with it.
I knew you were coldhearted...
but never thought you'd be like this with your own son.
I was against them getting married because I disapprove of your son.
But now, I refuse to give them my permission because of you.
I won't let them get married!
Dr. Ki, can I let in the patients...
Yes, hello.
This is Heon's mother.
May I speak to Dong Hoon for a minute?
I want to ask him something. It's about Heon.
I can't do this. I'm just going to eat it.
But it's someone's leftover.
So what?
I'm starving. We can't afford to be picky now.
Don't eat it, then.
I must eat something for my baby.
What? Why are you eating my food?
Hey.
Oh, sorry.
We thought you left without putting this away.
Anyone can tell that I was in the middle of eating it.
I stepped out to take a call.
We're sorry.
Hey, you can't just leave. You need to compensate me.
This place is poorly managed.
Excuse me? Can I talk to someone who works here?
- Excuse me? - Yes, sir!
(Sehan Hospital)
Well...
I'll just carry it to the room for you.
You can go in alone.
Why? Let's go in together.
Young Hye is really ill.
I know. You said it was caused by anger and stress.
I added to her stress, if anything.
She'll be angry if she sees me.
Nothing good will come out of it.
You came to see her because you're worried about her.
Why would she be angry?
She'll be angry. I'm pretty sure she will be.
She can't stand me.
Let's go. I'll help you carry this.
But...
She's upset because of Min Ah.
But I can't tell him.
Mr. Geum came with me...
but had to leave because something urgent came up at work.
Sang Baek and In Seo are all frazzled right now.
They don't remember the full plate number of the taxi,
so they're visiting taxi companies with photos of Min Ah...
and even visiting her friends to ask them...
if they've seen or heard from her.
Where is she?
Gosh, that poor thing.
But we'll find her. I'm sure we'll find her.
Don't worry.
How are you feeling?
I don't have a fever.
I'm okay now.
I see. Whenever my kids are ill,
I check their temperature first, so it's become a habit.
Get some sleep, then. I'll stay here.
I can sleep here.
It's okay. It'll be uncomfortable to sleep here.
Just go home.
I can't leave you here alone knowing you're not feeling well.
Then I'll stay just until Sang Baek comes back.
Lie down.
Go on. Lie down. You need to lie down.
Why...
Why are you crying? I didn't even say anything.
Don't worry. It's not you.
I'm getting old, so my eyes get watery easily.
My heart breaks for you.
I wasn't there to see how you raised Min Ah,
but I know she means the world to you.
The way you look at her tells it all.
You see,
the human body is a funny thing.
Mental and emotional stress always manifest in the physical body.
You collapsed because you were suffering extreme distress.
And Min Ah must be very sad now.
All her life, she was dearly loved by her family.
But now, her entire family disapproves of her decision...
and is against it.
She was so heartbroken that she packed up and left.
She's foolish and stupid.
She wants to jump into flames with gasoline in her arms.
She wants to get married? What is she thinking?
I wonder if this is how my mother felt.
It's random, isn't it? But you see,
you remind me of my mother.
I moved to Seoul when I was 18...
with my stuff packed into a small bundle.
Back then, only the eldest son went to school.
The younger ones just helped out with housework.
I started helping out at my parents' farm...
upon graduating from middle school.
But my father wanted to marry me off to some old man.
So naturally, I cried.
I cried for days,
so my mom asked everyone she knew...
and got me a live-in maid job in Seoul.
She woke me up at the crack of dawn and told me to leave.
"If you stay here, you'll end up becoming someone's second wife..."
"and will have to work all day under the blazing sun like me."
"Go to Seoul so you can at least eat hot meals..."
"and live a decent life."
Then she gave me her lifetime savings.
She must've...
She must've felt...
You know,
I'm now older than my mother when she passed away.
And I'm beginning to understand how she must've felt.
You didn't have to...
You didn't have to tell me this.
I know.
They say you're old when you start going on about your past.
You see, my mother didn't even come to my wedding.
She couldn't come.
My father didn't let her and said he couldn't give me...
a single penny because I had run away from home.
So the wedding took place without my mother.
Then I gave birth and raised my kids without her.
The sadness I felt on my wedding day was nothing.
Giving birth and raising a baby without your mom's help?
Gosh. I'd rather die than relive those moments.
Mr. Geum told me...
that you're alone too, with no parents.
I'm not saying it's a flaw.
I know what it's like. I totally understand how you feel.
That's why I can't let Min Ah go through this alone.
She has a mom, you know?
A mother who collapsed...
because she was so worried about her.
You should be there for your pregnant daughter.
Not having your mother at your wedding ceremony...
You know how sad that is.
Just let them get married.
They couldn't have gone far.
You'll hear from her soon.
Then tell her they can get married and that they should come back home.
She was going to get married eventually anyway.
It's a blessing to have found her better half at a young age.
Congratulate her.
No...
I don't agree.
She has a bright future ahead of her.
She should spread her wings and fly high.
She's being foolish.
Awfully foolish.
Yes, you're right.
It is foolish. She is being foolish.
But you don't need to be smart to be happy in life.
She's found her better half,
so just wish them happiness. That's all that matters.
As long as they're happy, you know?
Yes, cry.
Cry as much as you want.
Let it all out.
Is it you, Min Ah?
It's you, right?
Who is this? Grandma?
Where's Mom?
Okay. I'll head there right away.
I'll be there soon.
Taxi, taxi!
What's going on, Min Ah?
What do I do?
What's wrong? Why are you crying?
My mom collapsed. She's ill.
