You have three sons.
Why should you do it when you just got remarried?
All my sons are useless.
None of them is saying...
they will take care of it from now on.
They don't even remember it, those punks.
This is how they are.
They only contact me when they need money.
Even until now, I had to call them every year and remind them...
of the memorial ceremony to make them drag themselves there.
I told them I don't care about my birthday and the holidays,
but we must commemorate their mother's death anniversary.
That's how I got to see them once a year.
But look at this. I didn't bring it up this year,
and they don't even remember it.
Those rude brats.
Even so, I really don't think...
it's right for you to prepare the memorial ceremony.
Ask anyone you see on the streets.
Who'd approve of someone preparing his ex-wife's memorial ceremony?
Even your late wife won't be happy about it.
As soon as you leave the ceremony,
you'll go home to your current wife.
It's disrespectful to both of them.
It's not like I don't know that!
Just tell Sang Baek now that he should take care of it.
What choice does he have?
I'm headed to the site.
Hold on. What did I do with the keys? Here they are.
Tell Sang Baek and meet me there.
Tell him, okay?
(Be My Dream Family)
Come on in.
Okay.
Wait in the room.
I'll tell you when it's ready.
Of course.
Dad would never forget about Mom's death anniversary.
Why didn't he call us?
We came here, thinking that he probably wants...
to stay out of it now that he's remarried.
I called him.
He's been nagging me since yesterday...
about making all the foods for the ceremony.
Obviously, Young Hye wouldn't want to do it.
I didn't think it was right to just forgo it,
so I gave him a call earlier.
Just to ask him if he wanted to stay out of it.
Sang Gu kept nagging me to take care of it,
so I called and asked him what would be the right thing to do.
Why didn't you tell me?
I spoke to him briefly while driving...
and had auditions all day, so I was frazzled.
And why must I...
I didn't think I needed to tell you.
Father just hung up...
without saying much.
I had no idea he'd actually take care of the preparations.
"I guess he wants us to take care of it. How heartless."
I just thought that to myself.
I can't believe Dad didn't tell us.
He should've just called us like he always did.
I'm telling you. He had forgotten about it too.
I bet he remembered it when she called him about it.
"Oh, no. I totally forgot about it..."
"because I'm so happy about my new marriage."
He prepared everything because he was embarrassed.
Anyway, he took care of it this year,
which means he'll probably continue doing it every year.
Then what about Ms. Kang?
What about that woman?
This is Mom's memorial ceremony. Why bring her up?
Hold on.
Isn't he planning to sell this house?
When will he hold the ceremony after selling the house?
He won't sell it.
Dad will keep holding it at this house.
He's not selling it? How do you know?
I know because...
I made sure he won't sell it.
Just thank me when we're dividing our inheritance later on.
He said to come out.
She's eating again?
In Seo.
Min Ah and In Seo, go to the room.
Okay.
What's he going to say now? I'm scared.
From now on,
I want you guys to take care of the memorial ceremony.
I want to stay out of it.
Dad.
Gosh.
Yes, right.
That's probably... That would be the right thing to do.
No one does it after they get...
remarried.
Okay, we understand.
But by "you guys", exactly who are you referring to?
I...
I should do it. That would be the right thing to do, but...
Forget it. I'll do it.
- I'll take care of it. - My gosh.
Honey, are you going to do all the work? I don't have time!
- I'm never home. - Be quiet.
I'll do it.
What?
You're living at Ms. Kang's without even paying rent.
How are you going to take care of it there?
This is about next year.
I'll get my own place soon.
In your dreams.
Hey, do you know how much it costs to get your own place these days?
Goodness, that idiot.
He knows nothing about the real world.
Are you going to hold the ceremony in a tiny rental room?
Sang Min, I understand that you want to do it,
but you should focus on getting back on your feet.
I am doing that.
I'm at least earning money at the moment.
Hold on. What do you mean?
Are you saying I'm not?
Gosh, I'm so sick of that jobless guy's insecurity.
Even that kid is saying he'd take care of it.
You're the eldest son. Have you no conscience?
Is it that hard for you to say that you, as the eldest son,
will just take care of it?
Gosh, this is making me really angry.
You should just take care of it!
You do it.
You acted like you were the only one who cared about Mom.
You never treat me like your older brother.
But now, you're saying I'm the eldest.
You said you'd do it. You do it, then.
Enough!
We'll do it, Father.
From now on, we'll hold Mother's memorial ceremony at our place.
Honey.
Okay, thank you.
And since you guys are here anyway,
take all your stuff that is still here.
- What? - What?
What do you mean?
You've decided not to sell the house.
Says who?
Well, you said you'd sell it,
but I didn't hear anything after that,
so I assumed you weren't serious about it...
and that you've probably decided against it.
This house means so much to us.
What does this house mean to you?
How many times did you visit this house...
after you grew up and moved out?
I worked myself to the bone...
to buy this house.
I fixed it up and lived here all my life!
This is my house!
No. This is a burden, not a house.
I want to get rid of this burden.
Why won't you let me?
A burden?
Dad, that hurts our feelings.
We all grew up in this house.
It's filled with memories of Mom and Grandma.
So you want to erase Mom from your life?
What?
- Don't do this, honey. - That's what you're doing.
Look, that is what's going on now.
You want us to hold the memorial...
and will sell this house where Mom died...
after working herself to the bone.
As if she never existed in your life.
Because you only need Ms. Kang now, right?
You want to rid yourself of your past...
so you can be happy in your twilight years?
Is that it?
Yes.
I'm doing this because I want to live like that.
I want to live a decent life like everyone else, for a change.
In this house where my parents and wife died,
I ate nothing but rice and water...
and fell asleep while watching TV.
Thanks to Ms. Kang, I could put an end to that life,
and I want to live a happy life with her now.
What?
Do you hate the idea of me living a happy life?
Does it bother you that much?
Why didn't you strive for such a life when Mom was alive?
I never once saw you being sweet to her.
Father.
He's going to sell this house?
After everything Mom put up with in this house?
Does he even know what she had to endure?
While raising her three sons, she had to...
deal with Grandma picking on her. Thinking about that...
And because of our aunts and uncles,
she had to fix breakfast five times every morning.
While she was looking after our huge family, Dad was...
He was never attentive to her.
Whenever Mom said she wasn't feeling well,
he said she was tiring him out when he was exhausted from work.
He yelled at her.
Hey, don't be so resentful.
Grandma pitied Mom, so she gave her spending money here and there.
And Auntie helped out a lot with housework.
You never saw it because you were always studying in your room.
Oh, is that so? Are you saying you don't feel bad for Mom?
Despite everything she had to put up with,
she loved her husband so much.
Dad hadn't come home...
from one of the sites until very late,
so she wanted to drop off what he'd need.
She packed some underwear and food for him...
and left the house to go see him, then the accident happened.
I still remember it so vividly.
I was crying in disbelief.
But I saw Dad...
eat two bowls of spicy beef soup at Mom's funeral.
Thanks to Mom, he could raise a family...
and build wealth.
And he'll give all his money to that sly woman now?
He'll sell this house, which our mom cleaned and took care of,
and give the money to that woman?
Who says he can do it? I won't let that happen!
We all feel bad for what Mom had to endure.
We know. We all know.
But why do you think Ms. Kang is sly?
Don't be so mean to her.
Dad married her, so she's his wife now.
She is sly!
She wrote a pledge...
that she'd persuade him not to sell it...
and even signed it,
then stabbed me in the back!
She did the same thing to you.
The two of you were very close,
but she suddenly told you that she was marrying Dad.
Right.
That's true. She did fool me.
He's right, honey.
So what's your point?
Are you going to tell Dad that he has to divorce her?
Sang Gu, what's your problem?
Did you not hear what Dad said earlier?
He said he wants to be happy.
Just let him live a happy life with Ms. Kang!
That's what he thinks.
Does she want the same thing?
Does she just want to be Dad's wife with no hidden agenda?
She wants to be our mom.
Why do you think she wants that?
Even though she doesn't share a single drop of blood with you,
she's providing you with room and board.
And she's all friendly to you, Sang Baek.
Why do you think she's doing that?
Obviously, she wants Dad to see it.
"I'm so good to your children."
"I hope you'll take care of my children too."
She's laying the groundwork so he can't back out later.
What do you think will happen in the end?
They'll naturally get some of Dad's assets, you know?
You're right.
I also think that's why she's doing all this.
I mean, why else would she be so nice to me?
Okay, I get your point.
I don't feel totally comfortable with her either,
but now that I know her a bit better,
I think that's just her personality.
She likes to look after others, and she's caring.
What?
I thought you absolutely hated people...
who stick their noses into others' business.
What did you say to me for giving my two cents...
when you and Sang Baek were getting married?
"Don't tell me what to do with my life. I'll do the same."
You snapped at me like that. I still remember it like yesterday.
This woman is really something.
She's managed to win Young Hye over to her side.
Sang Gu, you got the wrong idea.
I think she's just a good person.
You're the biggest problem, you fool!
Goodness. Just because she cooks for you,
you're already on her side.
You disloyal brat. Do you even know what Mom went through to raise you?
What did she go through?
To be honest, I barely remember Mom's face.
What?
Is she not your mom just because you don't remember her face?
You brat.
She almost got a hunchback at the age of 34...
because she always carried her youngest son on her back.
She never put you down, even for a second!
And you, you really shouldn't do this.
You, of all people, know everything Mom did for you.
Listen, all of you. Just because that woman gave you something,
or because she's nice to you,
don't let her become our mom.
Don't ditch Mom, like Dad did.
Why would we ditch Mom?
My goodness.
Do not betray Mom, you guys.
I only have one mom, and that will never change.
Did it go well? Let's go inside.
Why aren't you in bed?
Did the ceremony go well?
I knew about it.
A long time ago... I mean, before we got married,
you took me to her columbarium niche.
That day, I memorized the date that she passed away.
I pretended not to know about it because you didn't bring it up.
Don't worry about me and just hold the ceremony for her.
No.
Sang Baek will take care of it from now on.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
Why are you sorry?
No one would ever hate you,
but because you married this fool,
you have to deal with my children...
I'm sorry they've hurt your feelings.
I hate that I'm saying this,
but I feel so bad for my ex-wife as well.
And for my kids too. For everyone.
Ms. Kang.
Why is it that...
my sense of guilt only deepens as I age?
I feel like I've worked hard and done my best,
but is living like this a sin?
The older I get,
the more I feel like I'm a sinner.
I...
I'm...
I'm really sorry.
Yi Jae, hurry!
Yi Jae.
We made a promise.
What's wrong, Yi Jae? You don't want to go to school?
I want to rush to school so I can meet my new friends.
Oh, many of them go to our academy.
And we're in the same class, you know?
Yes, Sol's right. Come with us.
We'll go with you every day.
Yi Jae, it's natural to feel scared...
when you go somewhere for the first time.
I get like that too.
But it could be fun too, you know?
If you really hate it...
and feel that it's too boring and weird,
you can just come home.
No, he can't. He can't leave school in the middle of...
Why can't he?
He should be allowed to come home if he hates it that much.
Even adults don't want to go to work sometimes.
You can't expect kids to always want to go to school.
Still, school is...
It's okay, Yi Jae. You won't hate going to school every day.
Let's just go and see. And we'll talk, okay?
Can I really come home if I hate it?
- Of course! - No!
Make lots of new friends and have fun.
Eat well.
- Listen to your teacher, okay? - Okay.
All right. Go, have fun!
Mom, why do you keep telling us to have fun?
We have to study too.
Right, you do. But play harder.
Bye! Have a good day.
- Bye. - Bye.
Bye, Mom!
Don't worry too much. He'll adjust to school very soon.
Yes, I won't worry.
You said you were taking the bus today.
- The bus stop is... - I know where it is.
Oh, okay.
It looks delicious.
Did you not have breakfast?
I've already digested it.
Oh, right.
I didn't bring my wallet.
Oh, I don't have a single penny on me now.
Mr. Choi, can you lend me five dollars?
Oh, sure.
I only have 10-dollar bills.
Then lend me 10 dollars. I'll pay you back in the evening.
Okay, here.
Thank you.
Do you want one too? Their doughnuts are very good.
You should've made him laugh.
If he seemed unwilling to open up...
and kept saying everything was okay,
you should've cracked a silly joke or something...
to make him laugh.
I couldn't, in that situation,
knowing how stressed out and upset he was.
Was I supposed to do a comedy skit in the middle of the meal?
Can you do a comedy skit?
He's not a fan of stuff like that. It'll only make things more awkward.
How should I put this? Is it because you two are too similar?
All you do is work.
Both of you are too serious.
You don't know how useful jokes can be.
Gosh, this is harder than I thought.
What did I tell you? I said I'd figure it out on my own.
I said I'd just keep having a secret crush on him.
No, don't say that. You shouldn't give up.
It's natural to be attracted to someone who's different from you.
You may find them attractive,
but people always settle down with those who are similar to them.
You need a common ground to have conversations, you know?
You and Ji Wan have good conversations, right?
Yes, we do.
We can always find things to talk about.
They're not always work-related?
We talk about our college days sometimes.
No, don't talk about some old memories.
What about hobbies?
About personal things?
Okay, then let's make sure you two can spend some alone time.
Let's rework our plan.
What? How?
I don't have time.
What do you mean? Where do you have to go?
Let's talk.
I've decided to go back to working as a chauffeur.
I know. Working late at night can take a toll on my health,
and I'm not young anymore.
But I need to do something.
I need to earn money for the baby, who will be born this summer.
Sang Baek.
Yes, I know that you're worried.
But let's talk later.
Get some rest, okay?
Tell Min Ah I want to talk to her.
What? Min Ah? Why?
Okay, but don't get worked up.
If you get worked up, you'll collapse again. Okay?
Min Ah! Come here for a minute.
What? You acted as if I was invisible.
What now?
You can get married.
- What? - Honey.
I can get married? Really? For real?
Thanks, Mom! Thanks so much!
But you won't have a wedding.
It's not something we want to advertise.
Just register your marriage and move out.
I'm sure his mom will get you guys a place to live.
Okay, Mom. Thank you.
I should go tell Heon.
Min Ah! No!
I made it clear to you!
Honey, you can't do this.
Am I not her parent? I'm her dad.
I'm against this. I cannot let her marry that punk.
Then what are you going to do?
We already lost this battle. It's over.
They tried to elope.
If we don't let them get married, it'll happen again.
They'll keep causing trouble until we let them.
Will you go look for them every time they elope?
Her due date isn't far away.
Do you want her to wander around...
with her huge pregnant belly and give birth in our absence?
Just let her do it.
She can give birth to a child who's just like her...
and try raising that child.
No. I can't let this happen.
No way!
Who gave you permission?
My mother-in-law gave us permission to get married.
Where are we going to live, though?
Mom, what kind of house will you buy me?
Oh, there's that studio apartment in front of the subway station.
Grandma said she'd pass it down to me.
It wouldn't be a bad option.
Actually, no.
One room for the baby, another one for us, and a dressing room.
We'll need at least three rooms.
Buy me a bigger apartment.
An apartment! Buy me an apartment.
Hey.
If I take you to a barbecue restaurant...
because you were craving meat, you tell me that you want sushi.
Even if you like something now,
you'll say you hate it later in the day.
Fine, you can date her. Just keep seeing her.
But don't get married.
- You can't change your mind... - No.
With this, I'm sure.
I love Min Ah.
We'll never get a divorce like you and Dad did.
We'll be together forever.
We'll love each other and be happy together.
You finally gave in and gave them permission to get married?
What are you thinking?
Fine, let them get married.
Yes, do it.
On one condition though.
- "Condition"? - Yes.
They can get married,
but after they get married,
your daughter will have to live with us here.
What?
What did you say?
We'll live together!
Min Ah! I love you!
