Mom! Where's my uniform?
It's on the balcony. You ask me where it is every day!
- Grandma, can you tie my hair? - Okay, sure.
Mom, did you not wash my black running shoes?
The dry cleaner messed it up.
- Oh, no. - I don't see it.
- What? - My gosh.
- What's the problem? - Look, what do I do now?
- I don't know what to do. - Gosh, I should've checked.
Okay, I'll go to the dry cleaner later today.
- Wear something else. - Han Da Bal!
Did you wear my running shoes again?
They were there, so I wore them. What's wrong with that?
- Hey. - Why do you keep wearing mine?
You'll ruin the shape!
Sorry, I'm sorry. Why are you so fussy though?
Han Da Bal, you little...
- What? - Hey, be quiet.
Mr. Geum worked pretty much all night.
He just fell asleep. Keep it down.
You'd better not wear my shoes again.
I'll wear them again.
- How dare you! - You brat. Hey!
- Go upstairs. Go. - Grandma, my hair... Help me.
Okay, I'll do it for you.
I'm sorry. They were too loud, weren't they?
They'll quiet down soon. Get more sleep.
I'm already up anyway.
Grandma...
Why is he sleeping here?
Jong Hwa.
- Jong Hwa! - What?
Jong Hwa!
Did you not get any sleep? What did you do all night?
Oh, right. You're still in your honeymoon phase.
What? You punk, you have no idea.
Gosh, I'm exhausted.
I can't sleep at home.
All that yelling and tussling first thing in the morning.
And how come they're all so loud?
The kids?
You lived alone for years.
I knew this would happen when you moved in with those five women.
I was like, "Is he sure he can handle this?"
But you said you were happy.
You used to go home to an empty house...
and eat instant noodles for dinner on your cold floor.
On your days off, you lied around all day and didn't talk at all.
You said you felt like you were finally living a decent life.
Stop it.
I guess I felt that way only for a day or two.
They're so chatty. Why do they have so much to talk about?
When I try to watch the news,
they all sit down to watch a drama and talk for over an hour.
I never know if they're watching it or just talking.
How come they never sleep?
Goodness. This is why they say people forget so easily.
Think about how you felt at the beginning.
You were so happy about starting a new life.
Never forget that.
Cut it out, you punk.
(Be My Dream Family)
(Episode 44)
- In Seo, let's... - Yes?
Hey, you...
- What is this? - Dad.
- What is this? - Nothing.
It's nothing.
Hey, did someone hit you? Are you being bullied?
No, it's not that.
Look at me in the eye.
If you're being bullied, it's not your fault.
The bullies are at fault.
Let's go to the police station now.
We have to report these jerks to the police...
Dad! It's Aunt.
Aunt Da Bal.
What?
And you didn't tell me?
It sounds like you've been taking judo lessons for a while now.
It hasn't been that long.
I just finished the beginner course.
That's why you said no when I said we should go to the sauna together.
It's not a secret. Why didn't you tell me?
Well...
If Mom finds out, she'll say I don't even have enough time to study...
and tell me to quit right away.
If you knew about it, she'd automatically find out too.
In Seo, is that what you think of me?
I may be gullible, but I'm good at keeping secrets.
Your mom is already so upset these days because of Min Ah.
Did you really think I'd tell her about you...
doing something else when you should be studying?
What else? What else have you been keeping from me?
There must be something else! What is it?
Tell me everything you've been keeping from me.
I told you the money I gave you was from my part-time job.
It was partially from the delivery gig,
but I also helped Grandpa out at his store.
What?
Your grandpa's store? So, my father?
How? What could you do?
See you later.
Are you actually going to the library?
Are you going somewhere else again?
I am going to the library.
But I'll stop by the woodworking studio after.
I'll tell you everything from now on.
I'm sorry.
See you later.
Hey.
I'm going to look for it now.
Obviously, I'll take care of it. You didn't need to check on me.
Then find the towel and wrap it nicely...
with the body lotion and cleanser.
Okay, I will.
When will you leave? Are you feeling okay?
I'm fine. I'll come by in the evening.
Dad, make lots of delicious dishes.
But I'll text you a list of all the things Heon can't eat.
Just avoid those, okay?
Min Ah!
- You want me to cook for that punk? - Min Ah, honey!
Coming. Dad, Heon's calling me.
See you later. Bye!
Goodness, I raised her to see this?
Did I raise my children to put up with this?
One got married because she got pregnant,
and the other one is wandering around aimlessly.
You never know how your kids would turn out.
You really never know.
Last year was a great year for Arang Publishing.
You were named the Editor of the Year because of...
your children's book series about environmental issues.
What would you say Arang Publishing's vision is?
It's nothing special or grand.
When I was the chief editor of liberal arts books,
I thought about this a lot while working on the books.
"I would've loved to know the beautiful stories..."
"and the authors' unique insights in the books when I was younger."
"Knowing about the ways that people outside my small world think..."
"would've enriched my childhood experiences."
I regretted not knowing about it.
So you decided to make children's books...
filled with such knowledge and sentiments...
so fewer children would have regrets like yours...
when they grew up.
Well... Right.
I'd be really happy if our books could do that.
But we're still working hard to make it happen.
Right. I'm sorry, Mr. Choi.
I was cracking a joke because you seemed too nervous.
Please continue.
Okay. The thing is,
most companies in the children's book industry...
are focused on educational books.
As the CEO of the company, I must make sure...
the company is profitable so we can keep making books,
so I can't completely ignore such trends.
But I hope to see kids waiting for our new books...
as if they're waiting for the first snow.
He's so cute. Wasn't that adorable?
What are you talking about?
Those puzzled eyes when he wasn't sure if she was joking.
He sat there straight, looking all serious.
It was so cute, wasn't it?
You're so head over heels for him.
Ji Wan, did the reporters leave? When will it be published?
It'll be published next week in the Books and Culture section.
We should frame it and hang it on the wall.
Well done. It was very cool.
You must be thirsty.
You barely touched the coffee earlier. Just a second.
No, I'm good.
Oh, right.
- I forgot to mention this. - Mention what?
That I'm making the books for Yi Jae.
My goal is to make books that I want Yi Jae to read.
I should've mentioned it during the interview.
You wanted to say that during the interview?
You rarely talk about personal stuff.
Right. Because I felt that I wasn't qualified to talk about it.
Even though I make books for children,
I had no idea how my own child was feeling.
So I felt guilty.
But Yi Jae and I have become closer thanks to Da Bal.
I'm finally making real efforts to get to know Yi Jae better,
so I wanted to express it during the interview.
I see, thanks to Da Bal...
Oh, I want to buy a box of grapes because Sol and Da Bal like them.
Do you want some too? I'll go ahead and place an order.
What? All of a sudden?
Why would you buy fruit for them? It seems unnecessary.
I'm just so grateful. Da Bal has been taking Yi Jae to school...
because the babysitter is only available in the evening.
I should return the favor.
Which one should I order? Let's see.
Oh, this one.
Here you go.
Thank you.
I guess it's a gift for the wedding guests.
Towels and umbrellas would make the perfect gift.
I see.
It's for your child's wedding, right?
Congratulations.
Yes, thank you.
(Geum Min Ah, Im Heon. We will live a happy life together.)
Geum Min Ah.
That is my daughter and your daughter-in-law's name.
Stop calling her "that girl" or "that kid".
Okay, sure.
They called me.
They said they'd sleep at your place tonight.
Sleeping at the bride's house upon returning from their honeymoon.
That's such an old custom.
Anyway, if they must sleep at your place tonight,
I'll send over Heon's sheets.
That girl...
I mean, Geum Min Ah told me she has a single mattress.
It's too small for both of them.
So you'll make him sleep on the floor.
Do you think we don't have sheets?
I won't make him sleep on a bare floor.
Sleeping on the bare floor would be better.
Even for pillowcases, he needs one with a high thread count.
He looks at the sheets first even when booking a hotel.
I'll send his sheets over.
That is not true at all. When he came over drunk,
he slept soundly in the middle of our living room.
I even saw him sleeping right under Min Ah's feet.
What?
Not when he's sober.
He can't sleep like that.
And we never order in,
so don't order such junk food.
His allergies have gotten better,
but he still gets a rash when he eats something he doesn't like.
I know he's a picky eater, but don't force him to eat.
As for meat, he only eats sirloin.
Don't overcook it. Medium rare, you know?
Is he a crown prince or something?
Is he from Gyeongbok Palace?
Why don't you tell me to hire a royal taster for him?
He's my son-in-law. I'll take care of him.
Really? Then shall I also treat my daughter-in-law however I want?
The patient who had the ankle tendon surgery.
The routine treatment is as important as the manual therapy.
The routine treatment is a must to prevent other complications,
so make sure it's done.
You're not writing it down?
I really can't put up with this anymore.
You say "Ms. In, please come in," so I come in.
Then you start talking disrespectfully.
When I'm talking, you cut me off and tell me to work.
What do you want?
Are we high school friends, colleagues,
or in-laws?
You drop the honorifics whenever you please.
How much longer do I have to put up with this?
Let's decide how we'll address each other from now on.
Dr. Gi.
Ms. In.
Let's only talk about work when we're here.
Please don't talk disrespectfully to me, Dr. Gi.
What... What's wrong? Did you two fight again?
You said you two are in-laws now.
Shouldn't she be careful, then?
Is she still picking on you?
Careful, my foot. She's even worse now.
Now, she's the typical mean mother-in-law.
Fine. I'll put up with her looking down on me,
but she'd better not treat my daughter like that.
If she looks down on my daughter and belittles her,
I'll grab her by the hair again and...
"Again"?
You've done it before?
What?
No.
"Sirloin"? As if.
He's getting rice mixed with barley tea.
Are you still not feeling well?
You said you were out for location scouting.
Did you do something else?
All I did was work.
Well, I can't help but wonder.
Why fall ill after checking out all the nice locations?
- Let's see. Do you have a fever? - Forget it.
Go make some porridge.
It'll be here soon.
It'll be delivered, so just accept the delivery.
You can walk to the door, right? Your legs aren't broken.
You're unbelievable.
You can't even make porridge for your ill husband?
There's nothing in the fridge.
If I make porridge with just rice,
you'll say it won't help you get better.
You'll go on about it. Goodness.
I ordered different kinds with abalone and chicken,
so you can pick and choose.
That's better, right?
Have the porridge, take your pills, and get some sleep.
Then you'll feel better.
Honey, the director you're close to.
Director Park Woo Jin. I heard he's working on a new show.
He did say everything's already set,
but you're close to him.
Can't you see if I can get a role in it?
Get out.
You're making my headache worse,
so please get out.
Okay, I'm leaving.
I might have dinner with the team after the radio show.
Don't worry even if I'm not home until late.
You were out all night...
for your "location scouting".
I'll just be out for a team dinner.
You don't care, right?
Go see a doctor if it gets really bad.
Don't be foolish.
I'm off.
I'm foolish...
for marrying a woman like you. Oh, dear.
Hello. It's me, Oh Min Hee.
Can I take the day off?
What? Oh, my husband isn't feeling well.
Pardon? Right, you're right.
A stand-in can't ask for a stand-in.
You're absolutely right.
I'm in the parking lot now.
I'm on my way. I'm starting the car. Here I come!
Mom.
Mom, open the door!
Why wouldn't she just come in? Did you change the door code?
- No. - Why wouldn't she come in?
What's going on?
- We're here. - Hi.
Hello, Mother, Father.
- Hi, In Seo. - Come on in.
Hey, why did you ring the doorbell?
Oh, because I don't live here anymore.
My home is elsewhere. I'm here as a guest.
Dad, do you have the gifts ready?
I read on the Internet that we must give them out to all the guests.
They're ready, right?
You look beautiful.
Doesn't she?
Your belly must feel heavy. You don't need to do the deep bow.
Still, they should greet you properly.
Then just do it simply, Min Ah. Okay?
Okay.
Oh, no.
You're young, but you know how to do the deep bow properly.
You're lucky such a polite young man is your grandson-in-law.
Sit down. You guys too.
Okay.
Be careful.
How was your honeymoon? Did you have a good time?
Yes, we had fun.
It was fun.
Hey, what's with that tone?
You should say a few words as their grandpa.
They're starting a family.
Give them some good advice.
You're the head of a household now.
Yes, right.
You have a wife and a kid.
Behave yourself at all times and be mentally strong, okay?
Yes, I'll remember that.
- Min Ah. - Yes.
You're also the head of this household now.
There's never...
one person in charge of a family.
The husband and wife are equally responsible.
You must trust and cherish each other.
Okay?
- Okay. - Good.
That's such great advice. Why say it in that scary tone?
Smile a little. Say that again with a smile on your face.
Be good, okay?
Gosh, you two are adorable.
- We'll get going, then. - All right.
- Take care. - Bye.
You guys had a long day.
- Bye. - Are you not going to say bye?
What? I saw them earlier.
I have to say, you're a lot like your father.
Me? What are you talking about?
I take after him the least out of the three of us.
From my looks to personality, I'm nothing like my father.
I don't agree with that.
My gosh, Min Ah is so smart.
Her mother did a great job raising her.
They're still just kids,
but look at them visiting us with all the gifts to say hello.
I know. And they got us such useful gifts.
I just ran out of body cleanser and moisturizer, so this is perfect.
Me too.
Sang Min, do you like those cookies?
You can take them all upstairs.
Thank you.
- Take more. - Oh, thank you.
Enjoy.
Right, hold on.
I should invite all of them for breakfast tomorrow.
Let's see. What do we have in the fridge?
I'm so full.
Me too.
The food at your place is so good.
Right? Isn't my dad such a great cook?
Yes, he made many of my favorite dishes.
How did he know?
What do you think? I told him in advance.
I knew it! I love you, Min Ah.
Guys.
Mom, can't you knock?
Okay! I will.
Anyway, your bed is too small for both of you.
I'll give you a blanket.
You're okay with sleeping on the floor, right?
Pardon?
No, I've never slept on the floor in my entire life.
The blanket is very comfortable. I'll give you two, okay?
It's okay, Mom. We can sleep together here.
Right? We'll hold each other tight.
I can't stand those lovebirds.
Did I give birth to that brat...
and go through all the trouble to see this?
He really acts like he's a crown prince or something.
He only eats the things that he likes.
He only uses expensive toothpaste with a special ingredient,
nothing else.
The toothbrush too. He only uses... What's that called?
What was it? Electric toothbrush?
He only uses that toothbrush,
and he's never slept on the floor his whole life.
Sure, he can do the deep bow. But we're treating him like a king.
I raised my daughter like a princess,
but she's about to become a court maid.
Honey, our kids have left us.
It's just us now.
Think about it.
Min Ah is no longer our daughter. She's his wife now.
In Seo? Behind our back...
I mean, he'll be fine without us.
What are you talking about?
What's In Seo up to these days?
I'm not saying he's up to something.
What I mean is, he's all grown up now.
He'll go to college, serve in the army,
and get a job, you know.
He's no longer our baby.
Honey.
It's just the two of us now.
It's no use worrying about the kids.
I know my dad says a lot of harsh things.
But if you listen carefully, he's right about everything.
When it comes to family,
the husband and wife must trust and cherish each other...
Gosh, stop rambling on. What's your point?
I've known you since I was 17. Am I stuck with you forever?
That's right. You're stuck with me indeed.
Like this.
That hurts.
Honey.
Min Hee.
She's not home yet?
Has she really lost her mind?
She clearly knows that I'm not feeling well,
but she's not home yet.
Fine. We're done. It's really over.
Even just a few days ago, your mother smacked me...
when she caught me sleeping under your feet here.
This feels surreal.
I know, it does. We're actually married now.
You're sleepy, aren't you? Get some sleep.
Okay, you too.
I'll be right back. I need to use the bathroom.
- Hurry. - Okay.
What?
- What is it? - What's wrong? What is it?
- What happened? - What's wrong?
- What is it? - There's a cockroach!
I've never seen a cockroach before.
How could a cockroach live inside your home?
Gosh, that totally scared me.
Seriously.
It really scared me.
Are you all right? Did you hurt yourself?
I guess so, because we're both parents.
She has such a warm heart.
Oh, it's a nice song.
I keep humming it these days.
I want to buy a box of grapes because Sol and Da Bal like them.
Do you want some too?
This is driving me crazy.
My heart says no, but...
No, no. It can't be.
But why does my head keep telling me that my hunch is right? Goodness.
I think I should sing a song in front of Ji Wan, after all.
I'll send you a list. Help me pick one.
Lady, it looks like you've lost your chance.
Why did you want to meet up? You could've just texted me.
Do you have to sing a song for him?
I feel like I've lost the momentum,
but he likes women who sing well.
So I should at least give it a try.
Oh, look at these glasses.
You told me to get either gold or semi-rimless frames.
I picked these up after work. It's gold and semi-rimless.
What do you think?
Oh, I even got my nails done.
Now, I know why women spend money on their nails. They're so shiny.
Tomorrow, I'll wear these glasses...
and do my best to make him notice my hands.
- Ms. Han. - Yes?
You should stop.
Stop...
liking Ji Wan.
