I mean... Gosh.
Hey, what brings you both here?
Didn't you get my text message?
I texted you because you didn't pick up.
Did you?
What were you doing? Why didn't you answer my call?
I wasn't doing anything. I have nothing to do.
Exactly.
Wait, Seung Ju.
Can't you come back some other time?
What do you mean? Why do you want us to leave?
Well... The thing is...
I didn't clean the house.
It's so dirty in there.
I'll be too embarrassed to see Sung Wook.
So come back some other time, okay?
I wouldn't mind, Mother. Please don't worry about me.
Right. We barely made time to visit you. Don't send us back.
How dirty could it be?
And we're busy, you know.
Let's go in, Sung Wook.
Okay.
Gosh. Seung Ju, wait.
It looks clean, Mom.
Indeed. It's cleaner than our house.
Oh, really?
What does it look like?
A cartoon?
Were you watching this?
What?
Oh, that. Yes, I was bored.
I have to go to the bathroom.
Him Chan.
Can you stay here just for a while?
Why?
Well... Oh, right. Think that we're playing hide and seek.
Stay here just for a while.
Don't come out until I say so, okay?
Okay.
Hey, Seung Ju, can I talk to you briefly?
Why?
It won't take long.
Sung Wook, we'll be right back.
Sure.
We'll be back shortly.
What is it?
Hey, you should go home with Sung Wook right now.
What do you mean? Why are you sending us back already?
In the bathroom...
Your son is in there right now.
What?
Hey, quiet down.
What are you talking about? My son is in the bathroom?
I told you yesterday that I thought I had seen your son.
And he really is your son. I confirmed it.
Have you lost your mind?
I had no choice. I wanted to see him.
Are you saying that he's in this house? In your bathroom?
Yes, I said I'd look after him for a while and brought him here.
You're the bane of my existence.
I know. Just hurry up and go home with Sung Wook. Come on.
This isn't over.
That's the bathroom, right?
What's wrong, Seung Ju?
My stomach hurts suddenly.
Your stomach hurts? What's the problem?
I'm not sure.
She gets stomach cramps once in a while.
I think that's the case.
Stomach cramps?
I got annoyed at her because she came over unannounced,
and I think that stressed her out.
Seung Ju, do you think you can stand up?
Hop on my back. I'll take you to the hospital.
Stand up.
Her purse is here.
Right. Thanks, Mother.
Mother, then we'll visit you again soon.
Okay. Sure.
- Hurry up and go. - Yes, Mother.
I'm sorry, Mother. We'll get going.
Seriously, why did they come over today?
Gosh, where's my mind at?
Him Chan, you can come out now.
I'm sorry, Him Chan. My goodness.
What's going on, Grandma?
What? Nothing. Everything is fine.
By the way, Him Chan,
I want you not to tell anyone about what happened here.
Can you do that?
Why?
What? Well... No reason.
Just don't tell anyone, okay?
Okay, then. I won't tell anyone.
Thank you. You're so sweet. You're such a good boy.
All right, then...
I'll take you home now.
Okay.
Are you feeling any better now?
Yes, I'm fine.
The doctor said that your CT scan results were fine.
So don't worry too much.
I'm sorry we had to leave like that because of me.
Don't say that.
Lie down. I'll go wash up.
- Okay. - Okay.
Why? Will you go back to the US? Is that it?
Go ahead and do whatever you want, you brat.
I don't need a son like you who wants to cut all ties with me...
because of a girl.
Go back to the US or do whatever you want.
Hey.
What's up at this hour?
What were you doing?
What was I doing? I was getting ready to go to bed.
Are you at home?
Of course.
Why do you ask?
I was just wondering if you were drinking with your friends.
I wanted to tell you not to drink too much...
if you were drinking.
No way. I'm not drinking.
Don't worry. I'm not drinking.
Okay.
Then I'll hang up so that you can go to bed.
Dong Hee.
Why?
I love you.
You know that I love you very much, don't you?
Of course, I know.
Good.
Sleep well. I'll see you tomorrow.
What are you doing out here?
Nothing.
What are you doing up so late?
Did you cry?
Why? Aren't things going well between you and him?
That's not the case.
You're lying.
You've been looking downcast...
and having no appetite over the last few days.
Did his parents find out, by any chance?
Yes.
And they're against your relationship?
Yes, as expected.
I kind of figured.
You must be distressed.
It seems harder for him than for me.
He seems to be having such a hard time emotionally.
And it breaks my heart, Auntie Myung Sook.
Why?
Did something happen to him?
He packed up and left home after arguing with his father.
What are you going to do? You can't break up with him.
What's with that face?
Are you considering breaking up with him?
My gosh.
Hey, what's up so early in the morning?
You know why I'm here.
What is your problem?
Do you want me to go crazy?
Of course not.
Then why on earth did you bring that kid here?
I didn't know you two would come.
Mom!
All right. I'm sorry.
I was wrong. Don't be angry, okay?
Can't you stop apologizing to me?
Can't you stop doing things that you should apologize for?
So?
What did you find out?
Is he my son?
His father's name is Jae Seok.
And his father got into an accident in Taean too.
Is that true?
That's why I brought him to my house.
Do you want to see your son too?
Are you insane? Why would I?
What do you mean, "Why?"
He's your son whom you gave birth to.
Don't you want to see what he looks like?
He resembles you.
I said I didn't want to see him.
Besides, what's the point?
What can I do even if I want to see him after all these years?
Well, I see your point, but...
So please stop this, Mom.
What if his family members find out...
and tell me to raise him?
Would you take responsibility for the damage?
That won't happen.
How can you be sure of it?
It seems that Jae Seok's younger sister adopted him.
So she wouldn't send him back to you.
Jae Seok's sister adopted him?
Yes, that's what I said. So she won't send him back to you.
Anyway...
Anyway, I'm not interested.
Unless you want to destroy my life, never do that again.
Do you understand?
That wench.
I understand why she said it, but she must want to see him.
I mean, she gave birth to him.
Hi, Hyun Seok. It's me, In Kyu.
Didn't Cha Yeol go to your place?
Why would he come to my place?
Wait. Did he pack up and leave?
Yes, he did.
Why?
He and I had a fight.
That's not what I'm asking. What did you two fight over?
I'll explain the details to you later.
I should go now.
Bye, Hyun Seok.
Gosh.
Mr. Jang.
Hye Ran said she'd be late today and asked me to cover for her.
Really? That's okay. I'll be fine working alone.
You should go back in and keep writing.
Until when will you keep avoiding me?
Don't be ridiculous. I'm not avoiding you. Why would I?
I like you, Mr. Jang.
What?
I have romantic feelings for you.
What... That's total nonsense.
I'll forget what you just said.
Then I'll keep telling you until you remember it.
I will do so.
Let's have dinner together today.
What has gotten into you? You never asked me to eat with you first.
Let's do that.
What should we eat? What do you want to eat?
Something delicious.
Let's eat something delicious.
Okay. Let's do that.
This is nice.
Hey...
Have you thought about moving to the US?
No, I haven't.
Why? You don't want to go?
That's not important. Cha Yeol.
Why?
Go back home.
What?
I told you to go back home.
How did you know that I packed up and left?
I don't like the way you're handling the situation. You're being reckless.
We knew that your father would be against our relationship.
That's why we decided to be patient until we finally get his approval.
Then how could you leave home without even trying?
What are you planning to do?
I'll take care of everything.
Don't worry.
How are you going to take care of it?
Are you going to marry me and move to the US?
What would that make me?
I'd be the person who came between a father and a son.
Cha Yeol.
I don't want to be that kind of person.
I don't want to break others' hearts to get what I want.
- Dong Hee, please. - And...
you shouldn't be like this.
How could you...
cut ties with your father who raised you with love because of a girl?
You know you shouldn't do that to him.
You said your father had adopted you.
How could you tear his heart out after everything he's done to you?
Cha Yeol.
Were you always that heartless?
No, you're not that kind of person.
If that's who you really are,
I don't think I can trust you anymore.
How can I trust a man...
who abandoned his own father?
Right?
I think I didn't think it through.
All right. I'll go back home as you said.
I'll go back home, so don't worry.
You're really going back home, right?
Yes, I just said I would.
To be honest,
I got carried away and left home.
And I felt terrible all along.
I left home as if I had been running away eight years ago as well.
I realized that I always run away instead of resolving the problem.
I hated that about myself too.
Thank you for helping me come to my senses, Dong Hee.
Don't say that.
I want to thank you for listening to me.
I wish my father could see how wise you are.
But don't you worry. He'll see that very soon.
Then he'll approve of our relationship too.
So let's...
stay strong and wait just a little longer.
Okay?
Okay.
Why didn't you come home with Tae Pyung?
There were many customers in the hair salon.
Really?
Did you see Tae Pyung styling a customer's hair too?
Of course. I saw him dying a customer's hair too.
Really?
That being said,
how would you feel if Tae Pyung and Ja Young got back together?
Why? Do you think they want to do so?
No. Hye Na asked me...
how I would feel if they got back together.
What did you say?
Obviously, I said I would be happy.
Why? Would you be against it?
Yes, I'd be against the idea.
Why?
Ja Young looked down on Tae Pyung when they were married.
Tae Pyung deserved that. You can't blame her.
Anyway...
I don't like Ja Young.
Even if you don't like her,
don't disapprove of their remarriage if they get back together.
We should think of Hye Na, don't you think?
Don't worry. They won't get remarried.
Tae Pyung may want that, but Ja Young would never remarry him.
Is that so?
I'm sure of it.
I'll eat my hat if she remarries him.
Goodness, you.
You can't be so sure about that.
I know I'm right.
Seriously.
(Hyena Hair Salon)
You did a great job as always.
You too. You did well.
Hey, what's up?
Mom, I think the toilet is broken again.
It won't flush.
Again?
Okay.
I'll call a plumber. Wait for a while.
What's wrong? Is something broken?
The toilet. It keeps breaking.
So are you going to call a plumber?
I have no choice since I don't know how to fix it.
I'll fix it for you.
You will?
Yes.
Dad must've fixed it, Mom.
It's done.
Dad, you're the best.
Thank you.
No problem. I'll get going now.
Hey, you haven't had...
dinner yet.
So? Do you want me to stay for dinner?
- You don't have to if you don't want to. - Come on.
Of course, I'd like that.
Of course, he'd like that.
Wait for a while.
I'll go in. You should go home now.
Okay.
Dong Hee.
Yes?
What would you say if I asked you to let me tell my father about Him Chan?
No. I shouldn't have said that. I'm sorry.
I won't ever say that again. Just forget that I said it.
Okay?
I'll be off now. Go on in.
I'm really sorry.
Where have you been?
Are you back home for good?
Yes.
Father, I'm sorry.
I'll never do that again.
All right.
Does this mean that you've given up on her?
No.
I've decided to wait until Father approves of her.
Kang Cha Yeol.
Father.
I'll wait.
I don't know how long I'll have to wait,
but I'll wait until you realize Dong Hee's true character...
and approve of our relationship.
Do you seriously believe that that day will come?
Yes, I do.
I believe that that day will come eventually.
I doubt it. I don't think that it will ever happen.
Let's wait and see which one of us is right.
Then I'll go upstairs.
What's with him? He acts mature all of a sudden.
I don't know.
I will...
make sure that Cha Yeol goes back home.
I'll convince him.
Do you think...
that I'll approve of you if you do that?
If so, you're wrong.
I know that.
Jae Seok.
I think I was too greedy.
But now that I've come to my senses, things will be fine, right?
Since I have Him Chan that you sent to me,
I'm sure I can get through this hard time.
So don't worry about me, Jae Seok.
Thank you for convincing Cha Yeol to come home.
Don't mention it.
Now, go ahead and tell me. You must be here to say something to me.
Ms. Seo.
Since our last conversation, I've been doing a lot of thinking.
I realized that you must have thought I wasn't good enough for Cha Yeol...
because you love him dearly.
So? What are you trying to say?
I think you're right.
I didn't think of my position and situation.
I was greedy, wanting to be with him.
I've decided...
to let go of my greed.
Are you saying...
Yes.
I will...
break up with him.
Do you mean that?
Yes, I mean it.
I will break up with Cha Yeol.
(Bravo, My Life)
Then why are you doing this suddenly?
No. I don't even have to hear the reason.
Seung Ju may seem cold-hearted, but she's a mother after all.
Why wouldn't she want to see her child?
You let him go, but what's the point?
Cha Yeol has no intention of breaking up with you.
- Hyun Seok. - She's the lady I met the other day.
Who is this young lady?
What am I doing here?
Seeing his face won't change anything.
