I'm really sorry.
It mustn't have been easy to tell me all this.
Thank you for telling me.
Had I heard about it from someone else,
it would've been even more shocking.
I really wanted to die when my mom first told me about it.
I finally found my true love.
I felt that fate wasn't on my side.
Don't worry about anything now.
Now that I know, I can take care of everything.
But your parents won't let us get married if they find out.
Especially Mr. Kang. He is morally strict.
If they ask me about it,
I'm going to say that I knew about it.
Then it'll be a bit better.
So you'll lie to them?
I have no choice if I want to protect our love.
You kindly covered up what my mother did,
so I should at least do that much.
Thanks a lot.
Now, give me your hand.
I couldn't put a ring on your finger earlier.
Come on.
I'm home.
Hey, you didn't even answer our calls. Where have you been?
You called? I didn't know.
Sit down.
What's up? Did you need to talk to me about something?
Hey, did you not get my text message?
You texted me? I didn't see it.
Break up with Ms. Baek.
- Dad. - Break up with her.
What's this about, all of a sudden? Why should I break up with her?
What's the matter? You always thought highly of her.
Sung Wook, do you know where she lives?
Where she lives? Why do you ask?
Just answer my question.
Do you know where she lives?
Yes, I do.
Where? Secret Palace in Cheongdam-dong?
No. Kkotgil Apartments in Gangbuk-dong.
What? You knew?
Of course. I took her home just now.
Anyway, what about it?
What's going on? Sung Wook knows about it.
So who lied about what?
Then do you also know what her father does?
He's living a quiet life in his hometown. He moved there after his business failed.
Anyway, why are you asking me about these things?
When did you find out?
Did she tell you before you two parted earlier this evening?
No. I've known about it for a while.
She told me when I proposed to her.
No way. Are you serious?
Yes, I am telling you the truth.
But it is true that her mother lied.
Her mother misses the days when her family was well-off.
So her mother said those things without thinking.
Seung Ju thinks it's such a shame.
In any case,
I won't let you marry into a family of liars.
Break up with her.
Dad.
Don't be stubborn.
Just break up with her.
So? He wants to marry you even after you told him everything?
Yes.
Oh, my goodness!
He must truly love you, right?
Don't get too excited.
I've only managed to persuade Sung Wook.
You wouldn't need to persuade anyone else.
He said he'd take care of his parents.
They won't be persuaded that easily.
Especially Mr. Kang. I know he doesn't forgive liars easily.
Then what do we do?
How are you going to persuade Mr. Kang? Do you have a good idea?
No. Obviously, I don't.
Then what do we do? Are you just going to give up?
No, I can't do that.
My future depends on this.
I won't make any more wrong choices.
I will marry him no matter what...
so I can get my life back on track.
I don't know what you're talking about.
But you're saying you'll become rich, right?
Don't look at me like that, you brat.
Even if you try to act all noble and elegant,
you can't change the fact that we're two peas in a pod.
My gosh. I wish he were not from a rich family.
I think you should give up on him before you develop feelings for him.
It's not just about your feelings for each other.
(Kang Cha Yeol)
Hey, Him Chan. Did you brush your teeth?
Yes. Why didn't you pick up the call?
It wasn't anything important.
Oh, it's Mr. Kang.
Hello?
Hi, Him Chan. It's me. What were you doing?
I just brushed my teeth.
I see.
What's your mom doing?
I just tried calling her, but she didn't pick up.
I see. Mom said she didn't answer it because it wasn't anything important.
Hey, Him Chan.
What? I can't tell him?
Him Chan. I'm sorry, but can I talk to your mom?
Sure. Hold on.
Mom, he wants to talk to you.
He does?
Him Chan, can you get me a glass of water?
Okay.
Hello?
What? So you flat out ignored my call?
I didn't answer because it's really late.
It's late? It's only 9:30 p.m.
Him Chan has to go to bed.
Anyway, why did you call?
Just because. I wanted to tell you that I got home safely.
You called me to just tell me that?
"Just"? It's important for you to know that I got home safe and sound.
Okay, sure. Now, I know that you got home safe and sound. Good night.
Wait, Him Chan! Put Him Chan on the phone. It's his phone.
He's not in the room now.
By the way, when did you get his phone number?
So you'd better not screen my calls from now on.
If you do, I'll call Him Chan. You got that?
I can't believe this. Anyway, I have to go.
Wait!
Did Mr. Kang hang up?
Yes. Here.
I wanted to talk to him some more.
No, it's getting late.
Him Chan, do you like him that much?
Yes. Don't you like him?
I like him too. He's a good person.
I think he likes us too.
How do you know that?
It's so obvious. His eyes tell it all.
His eyes?
Yes. The way he looks at us...
tells me how much he likes us.
Really?
Let's go to bed.
Okay, Mom.
Come on.
Honey, see if you can set Sung Wook up with someone.
Dad.
Okay.
Don't be too picky as long as the family is honest.
Got it.
Dad.
Seung Ju didn't lie.
I told you that her mother said it as a joke.
That's the problem.
Who tells such a lie as a joke?
Anyway, I can't let you two get married, so change your mind.
No.
I can't give up on marrying her because of something like that,
so you'll have to change your mind.
That brat.
- Are you heading out now? - Yes.
All right. Have a good day.
You too, Him Chan. Have fun at school.
Thank you, Great-uncle Jung Ho.
Don't you have to go to work too?
He retired.
From now on, he'll just take it easy at home.
I see.
Are you all right, Uncle Jung Ho?
Of course, I'm fine.
Why wouldn't he be?
Everyone retires when they get old.
Don't worry. You guys should get going.
Okay, see you later.
See you later.
- All right. - Have a good day.
Let's go.
Look, here.
You even got them printed?
Of course. Photos look better when they're printed.
My gosh. These look great.
How adorable.
You are a great photographer. I give you that.
I didn't even do much.
I had good models.
My gosh.
Dong Hee, is this kid your son?
- Yes. - He's adorable.
It looks like the three of you went on an outing.
Are you two dating now?
No! It's not like that. Please don't get the wrong idea.
This was a coincidence. He just happened to join us yesterday.
Okay?
Wait.
I guess she hasn't opened up to you yet.
I'm trying. And I believe she'll open up to me one day.
You look tired. Did you not sleep well last night?
No. My parents found out.
Really?
So what did they say?
They were a little surprised,
but everything will be okay.
I guess they're against us getting married.
I told you that I'd persuade them.
You don't need to worry about a thing.
I'm really sorry to put you through all this.
Stop saying sorry already.
Okay.
But is there anything I can do?
I want to be of help.
You don't need to do anything.
Just trust me and wait.
Okay, I will.
I should get back to my office.
Can't you stay just a few more minutes?
At a time like this, I should work even harder.
All right, then. I'll let you get back to work.
Bye.
Here, take this.
What is this?
Your pay for the month.
My pay?
But it hasn't been a month yet.
What? Are you kicking me out?
No. You said you couldn't move back home unless you paid rent up front.
Use this to pay the rent so you can move back home.
Ja Young.
I'm not doing this for you, so don't be touched.
I really don't think you should sleep here.
Because of you, the entire place stinks even if I keep all the windows open.
I can't stand it.
Whatever the reason may be, thanks anyway.
I appreciate you looking out for me.
Hey.
Didn't you say this was my pay for the whole month?
Why? Is something wrong?
It's too little.
I deducted what you owed me for child support.
What?
What's with that face? Were you not going to pay child support?
No, it's not that. Of course, I was going to pay you.
It's good that you deducted it.
All right, then. Let's do some work now.
Hold on. I'll go see my aunt for a minute.
(Hyena Hair Salon)
You want to move back home?
Yes. Ja Young paid me up front so I could move back in.
So let's move back home together, Auntie Jung Eun.
Forget it. You can move back in alone.
Why?
You worked hard to earn that money.
I can't ask you to take care of my rent on top of yours.
So go ahead and move back in alone.
Come on. Let's move back home together.
We got kicked out together,
so I can't move back in alone.
It's really fine.
Besides, I prefer living here.
I don't have to tiptoe around your parents.
Then I really will move back alone.
Yes, go for it.
All right. I can't force you. See you later.
All right.
(Hana Dumplings)
My gosh.
You're being ridiculous.
"Ridiculous?" What do you mean?
Your nephew said you could move back home with him.
Why are you adamant about staying here?
Do you have feelings for Hyun Seok or something?
What? Do you actually have feelings for him?
Why? Because you know you'll never become a successful writer?
Is that why you want to marry a rich man so you can live comfortably?
No.
I don't want to let myself fall for anyone until I become a successful writer.
What? Are you saying...
you'll confess your feelings to him or something when you become successful?
You can think whatever you want.
How dare she!
Wait.
Hey, why did you bring that back?
Hyun Seok, this woman...
- Yes. - This aspiring writer...
Why? What did Jung Eun do?
Jung Eun, did something happen between you and Hye Ran?
No, nothing happened.
Hye Ran, did something happen?
What? "Hye Ran?"
Why are you fondly calling me by my first name all of a sudden?
Why can't I?
I'm sorry for being rude to you, knowing you're older than me.
I promise I won't be rude to you anymore.
Okay, but why are you suddenly acting all nice?
What do you mean she's acting nice? She just wants to get along with you.
Thanks for doing that, Jung Eun.
And I enjoyed reading the revised script you gave me yesterday.
What did you think of it? Is it okay?
Yes, you revised it perfectly.
You should send it to the production company you know.
Do you really think it's good enough?
Yes, totally.
It's only a matter of time before you become a successful writer.
Seriously? Do you really think it's only a matter of time?
- Yes, I do. - No!
That cannot happen.
Hey, what's with you?
That's mean.
She's been staying here for a while now.
Don't be so mean.
Hyun Seok, it's not that.
I don't want to hear it. Just go take out the garbage.
You, aspiring writer!
Must you keep this up?
What did I do?
Gosh, that little...
I was going to give up on Hyun Seok...
now that my daughter is marrying into the Inha Fashion family,
but I need to do something about this.
Ms. Kim.
Yes.
This is last month's detailed sales report.
Please enter all the data into a spreadsheet by tomorrow.
I have to submit it to the higher-ups.
Sure, no problem.
Would it be okay if I gave this to Dong Hee?
She's good with spreadsheets.
I'll leave that up to you.
I just need it on my desk by tomorrow morning.
Got it, Ms. Baek.
I have a meeting, so I have to leave now.
You can all get going when you're done.
- Okay, bye. - Bye.
Bye.
Where did she go?
Jong Min, where is Dong Hee?
I sent her to the sample room to take care of something.
Really?
Why do you need her?
Oh, I need to enter this data into a spreadsheet.
I want to ask her to take care of it.
You can give it to me. I'll do it.
You'll do it?
Do you know how to input data?
I'm sure I can figure it out. Here, I'll take it.
Just tell Dong Hee to take care of it when she's back.
I need it done by tomorrow morning no matter what,
so she has to finish it even if she has to stay late. Okay?
Sure.
I have a meeting with a client. I'll go straight home from there.
- See you tomorrow. - See you tomorrow.
It's no big deal.
So you'll actually do it?
I'll give it a shot.
Why? Because you don't want Dong Hee to work late?
She has a kid. She should leave on time.
Dong Hee will be so moved if she finds out how much you care.
Don't tell her.
If she finds out, she'll want to do it herself.
All right.
I'm back.
Thanks, Dong Hee.
Is there anything else you need me to do?
No.
So you can get going now.
May I?
Then I'll get going.
Okay.
Cha Yeol, aren't you leaving for the day?
What? No, I have to do something. Get going.
Do you have a lot to do? Shall I help you?
No, I can do this on my own.
Just go home and play with Him Chan.
All right. Then I'll see you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow.
Bye.
Dong Hee.
- Hey, Tae Pyung. - It's been a while.
I know. Are you moving back in?
Yes. I'm moving back in as of today.
- Let's go inside. - Okay.
Here, my rent for the month.
What has gotten into you?
I thought you were penniless. Did you manage to earn money?
Of course, I did. I'm working at the salon as Ja Young's assistant.
She paid me up front so I could move back home.
She did?
Ja Young is so thoughtful.
Thoughtful, my foot.
Why must you work at Ja Young's salon, of all places?
Where I work is none of your business, Mom.
You just need to collect your rent on time, right?
What did you say?
From now on, don't think of me as your son.
Just think of me as your tenant.
And stop meddling in my business.
Okay?
Yes. Tae Pyung is right about that.
He's an adult now. You shouldn't meddle in everything.
Just let him figure things out on his own.
Honey. Even you're being like this now?
Anyway, I can't believe you ditched Jung Eun and came home alone.
What's she going to do?
I actually asked her to come with me,
but she didn't want to.
What? Why not? Why wouldn't she want to come home?
She prefers living there.
No way.
How could she prefer living there?
What do you mean, "No way?" I guess she really likes living there.
Besides, you told me not to meddle in my adult son's life.
Then why must you meddle in her life when you know she's an adult?
Tae Pyung and Jung Eun are different.
Gosh. Why isn't this working?
Dong Hee made this look so easy.
This is driving me nuts.
(Beginner's guide to spreadsheets)
Are you going to look at them all night? You should go to bed.
Yes, I should. What about you, Mom?
I should go to bed too.
What? Who's texting me at this hour?
You finished the spreadsheet I asked you to work on, right?
What is she talking about?
Hello? Ms. Kim, it's me.
What spreadsheet?
What do you mean? Didn't Cha Yeol tell you?
I told him to let you know.
No, I heard nothing about it.
Really?
Could he be working on it himself now?
He offered to take care of it earlier.
He did?
But I'm pretty sure he doesn't know how to enter data into a spreadsheet.
(Seo Dong Hee)
Let's get back into it.
Shirts...
Why isn't he picking up?
Him Chan, I need to go back to the office. I'm sorry.
Really? Why?
I need to take care of something urgent.
Can you sleep alone, Him Chan?
Yes, I can.
All right, then. I'll be quick.
Okay. Bye, Mom.
Bye. Sleep well.
Okay.
Taxi!
Hello.
(Vacant)
To Inha Fashion, please.
Sure.
This will take forever.
What if I can't finish it by the morning?
Cha Yeol.
(Bravo, My Life)
If they truly love each other,
they should be able to overcome any hurdle that comes their way.
- Cheers! - Cheers!
I joined Inha Fashion with a plan to stay with the company only for a year.
So you're planning to quit in a year?
If you're going to ignore your parents and do whatever you want,
quit your job too.
Do you truly love Sung Wook?
Sir, could you please support our relationship?
