(Episode 82)
Do you feel better now?
Yes. All that laughing lifted my spirits.
From now on, when we're stressed out,
let's do this.
You can be so silly.
What are you two doing together?
We're not doing anything.
We're making dumplings.
You should join us.
Let's do that. I was feeling hungry.
Okay, then.
My mother wants to meet your family as soon as possible.
This is all a bit too sudden.
That's what Mr. Jeon thinks. I'm not yet ready...
Sang Ah isn't like you at all, Father.
If she were anything like you, she'd have a strong drive...
and would dive right into things.
She's currently working with the K-Culture Town subcontractors...
Mr. Jeon.
And she does a great job.
She gets along with everyone on the team.
Yes. She should.
Once we get married,
we'll move in with my mother.
No way.
Is that something you both agreed on?
You said it wouldn't be a bad idea to give it a try.
We could give it a go for a couple of months.
A couple of months? You won't last a week.
Why would you make that kind of decision so soon?
Take your time to discuss it.
Did you really agree with that?
- Yes. - We did enough discussing.
I'm grateful that Sang Ah agreed so willingly.
What? We'll live with your mother?
Says who?
It's my mom's lifelong wish. Go along with it for now.
Don't you dare lash out.
Do you think I'm a toy you can drag around?
Keep it down.
Do you want me to raise my voice too?
I'm doing this for your sake.
We both work full-time.
You have no time to do the housework.
Your mother is a terrible housewife. That's just nonsense.
Shall I move in with you, then?
Who knows what I might blurt out?
Can you risk that?
If we were to live on our own,
would you do any cooking or cleaning?
Do as my mother says for half a year.
I never thought a lottery thief...
would be such a devoted son.
You're doing everything your weird mom wants.
That's rich, coming from a woman who embezzled for her mom.
My mom wouldn't ask me to steal.
You're not even his daughter,
so don't be so haughty as if you're of noble birth.
Stick to one thing.
Why are we doing this out here and not at home?
The kitchen sink is full of dirty dishes.
Can you wash them after dinner?
Sure.
Seal the dumplings carefully and make sure they don't burst.
Yes. If you make pretty dumplings,
you'll have pretty children.
Really? Then I want to make pretty ones.
- Me too. - Me too.
You're just kids.
I'll steam the first batch.
Set some aside for Jin Ju.
She must be working late again today.
Okay.
Make some pretty dumplings.
Who else do you think we should cast? Try to think of some people.
- I'll recommend someone too. - Okay.
Shall we call it a day?
Yes.
Let's go.
Hey.
- We need to talk. - Why?
Jeong Woo Sang knows me.
If he recognizes me here, won't that blow my cover?
You're right.
I'll tell him to pretend he doesn't know you.
- Be sure to warn him. - I will.
Isn't it good?
Oh, right. Our rent is due today.
- Here. - No. Keep it.
- Why? - Well,
I can't charge you rent because you look after Tae Ri.
You help us with the groceries sometimes...
and do the heavy lifting around the house.
You must be so grateful he does that.
It's a fact.
You have no idea how reassuring it is knowing Tae Ri has a place...
where he can feel safe.
It even feels like I should pay you for childcare.
Really?
I must keep this, then.
This is my childcare pay.
That means I have two jobs now.
Yes.
That's right, mom.
You're branching out.
Hang on.
Mr. Homeowner. Would you like another dumpling?
Yes, please. Thank you.
I'll give you the biggest, prettiest one.
- Thank you. - Here you go.
- Here's one more. - One more? Thanks.
- It's really good. - Oh, thank you.
My mother and I will see you then.
Okay.
You'll really marry him? Why?
I can't tell if you're smart or stupid.
- Watch it. - Let's be honest.
So Woo was a way better catch.
I can't tell who has more skill,
but based on looks and temperaments...
What do you know?
Don't mind me. Mind your own business.
I'm doing just fine.
I went around the drama and variety departments to say hi.
I'm doing way better than you.
Didn't you say it looked like Sang Ah and Mr. Jeon would break up?
Now they want to get married?
It doesn't look like it's what Sang Ah wants.
She's old enough that she wouldn't go against her will to do as she's told.
She didn't look cheerful.
Before marriage, everyone has a lot on their mind.
Her previous marriage failed too.
That's why I get it even less.
She just got divorced,
and she's rushing such an important decision so soon.
Let her do as she wants...
and offer our support.
I don't believe you. You disliked Mr. Jeon so strongly,
but now you support them?
I didn't like his background or situation,
but he seemed to care for Sang Ah a lot.
You saw how they were.
All we can do is support them.
I see you're taking this regularly.
I should. You got it for me so I could keep my energy up.
What do you think? Do you see a change?
I do. Your skin tone improved.
I should fill this up.
Is she addicted to marriage?
How could she get divorced and then get married right away?
She can't help herself.
Hello?
Ms. Jin? It's Bae Na Ra the writer.
Ms. Bae.
I was thinking about you and the bag.
How you're a perfect match and how pleased I am.
Do you use it?
For real? With Jeong Woo Sang?
I'd love that so much.
Thank you.
I can work with Woo Sang again.
Mom!
Mom, I was cast on a variety show.
You were? What show?
I don't know. They'll explain tomorrow at the first meeting.
Do you know what the shocking bit is?
What is it?
I'll be on it with Woo Sang.
The heavens are in my corner.
He never got married,
and we'll be reunited on a show.
This is fate.
My gosh.
A great love faces many obstacles.
Our love is just like that.
Woo Sang and I are a modern-day Romeo and Juliet.
That's a tragedy. They both die.
They do? Don't they live happily ever after?
Why is it a famous story, then?
You're an actor. Read some screenplays.
Or watch movies.
My gosh.
Who cares if it's a tragedy?
As long as he dies by my side.
Why did you refuse the rent? You didn't have to.
Our deposit is much lower than the market average already.
Looking after children is a lot of work.
Your mother does a lot.
And Tae Ri became much brighter since he started playing with the others.
I wanted to show my gratitude.
Then you won't accept next month's rent either?
I won't.
For as long as she looks after Tae Ri.
We benefit much more.
Tae Ri used to be shy and intimidated.
Now he laughs a lot and jokes too. I'm so grateful.
Thank you.
Mom was so pleased she got some extra cash.
I hope I won some brownie points too.
What?
The table is clean. I'll put it away.
Here I go.
You're so strong.
I'm so tired.
It feels like a bear is hanging from my shoulders.
How's your new job?
It's good fun, but one person is a nuisance.
Hey.
We're going to shoot a pilot and do you know who we cast?
- Who? - Jeong Woo Sang.
What? Your team is making the variety show...
he was cast on?
Yes.
How do you know when it wasn't in the news?
Oh, I read about it on some forum.
The one where people post anonymously.
Really?
You look stuff up?
So, what about the show?
Oh, yes.
I lied about my age to get the job as the rookie scriptwriter.
What? By how many years?
How did you pull that off?
The director is Jeong Woo Sang's older brother.
My brother-in-law?
You can't call him that now.
What should I call him, then? Director Jeong Tae Sang?
Anyway, he helped and I lied about my age,
so the other writer thinks I'm a little younger than I really am.
Tae Sang said he'd talk to his brother,
but I'm still worried.
He won't expose me, will he?
He won't. He's not that kind of person.
What?
He kept his mouth shut when he knew you were framed for causing an accident.
Shouldn't you know better than to defend him?
Well...
He didn't suffer half as much as you did.
Do you want me to bully him a bit on set?
No. Don't.
I won't. There's no point in that now.
Oh, well.
I'm exhausted.
Mr. Jeong.
The variety show you agreed to be on.
- Yes. - My older sister...
is one of the scriptwriters.
Is she really?
What now, then?
She hates me, doesn't she?
Does she still blame me for what I did?
No, she's not like that.
But she lied about her age to work there.
She's the team rookie.
- Is she really? - Yes, so...
if you see her, pretend you don't know her.
Okay.
Thanks.
Dream of me, then.
My gosh.
Why are you in such a good mood?
Is it about the new show?
Well, yes.
Good. Do exactly as your brother says.
Do your best, even if it's hard work.
And you. Be sure to rebuild his image.
I want him to be the talk of the town in a good way.
Do that for me.
It's not that easy.
Would I be living like this if I could do that?
Woo Sang got this chance because I pleaded with your chief.
- Make him look good. - Okay, fine.
How did you end up having to work to rebuild your image?
It's all because of that darn Pi family.
- My gosh. - Don't stress me out again.
Right. Hey.
My team's rookie writer is...
- Isn't it Mi Ju's sister? - How do you know that?
- I... - You're still talking?
You got back together?
It's not that.
I tried calling her, and we only talked about the show.
Isn't that called "being in touch?"
It's not.
I'll keep quiet about Jin Ju's real age.
Eat lots of fruit.
I'm back.
I'll meet her parents this weekend?
That's just great.
My son is going to marry into CEO Jin's family.
I also said we'd move in with you.
Did you? How did they react?
Sang Ah agreed to it, so they had no choice.
Her proud mom must've shuddered at the news.
When else will I get to brag about having a smart son?
I should put on a facial mask before bed.
Are you sure I don't have to worry?
Don't worry.
- Hello. - Hello.
Welcome.
I'm Bae Na Ra, the head writer.
That's Pi Jin Ju, the rookie writer.
I cast another actor who will join us soon.
- Who is it? - Brace yourself. It's my hidden card.
Hello.
Jin Chu Ah.
Hi, Woo Sang.
You two got into trouble and are trying to make up for it.
We need to get noticed,
and this is the best way to do that.
Aren't you Woo Sang's older brother?
Are you really?
Yes, I am.
Hi, little brother.
Why didn't you say so?
Who's this?
Aren't you Pi Mi Ju's older sister?
- You are. - I'm not.
As if you're not.
Is she a writer?
Yes. She's our team rookie.
She's the rookie?
You're the youngest?
Chu Ah, let's go and talk...
Let go of me.
You accepted someone that old?
She'll be older than you, Ms. Bae.
Pi Jin Ju. What's all that about?
See? You're Pi Jin Ju.
Calm down, Ms. Jin.
It was me. I did it.
What did you do?
Are you going over Hansung's final report?
Yes, I'm almost done. I'll send it to you this afternoon.
Okay.
Good morning.
You're in a good mood, Mr. Jeon.
I am. I have an announcement to make.
What is it?
Director Jin and I...
are engaged.
- Are you really? - No way.
No way what?
Are you marrying Mr. Jeon?
Congratulations.
Same here.
Stop chatting and get to work.
Thanks a lot.
Director Jin's reaction was a bit odd.
It was. Why did she scowl?
Is something wrong?
So, Director Jeong, you and her...
You two are friends,
and you reduced her age so she could get the job?
That's not all.
Her younger sister is Pi Mi Ju, the woman who duped Woo Sang...
- into marrying her. - Is that true?
You people haven't learned your lesson.
You conned a TV station.
You're in no position to talk about us like that.
I'll fire Ms. Pi as of today.
It was all me!
The previous idea I brought you was actually hers.
You said you needed another writer...
and I thought she'd do well, but that her age would be an issue.
So I fixed her resume.
It's not a crime to be old.
Can't you pretend I'm 30?
Lots of people say I look young for my age.
You don't look like you're 30. I'd believe it if you said you were 50.
Your whole family is a joke.
First it was Mi Ju,
and now you're using men to con others...
while hiding to save your skin.
Isn't that even worse?
I'll get going, then.
You're coming too.
Why me?
Why?
You two made a fool of me.
I didn't do anything wrong this time.
Why are you angry with me?
You could've let it go considering the situation.
Do you have to get everyone in trouble?
You got really weird.
If what I did is a crime, lying about their age is a crime too.
Why are you letting her off?
Ever since you got to know Mi Ju,
you changed and I don't know you anymore.
I was always like this.
No. You're really weird.
In your last text, you said I'd wrecked your soul.
You didn't send that, did you?
It was me. I sent it to shake some sense into you.
- Woo Sang! - Here's some advice...
from a fellow actor.
Don't waste your precious youth...
yearning for what you can't have and cherish yourself.
You and I are strictly business partners on this show.
You got me worked up.
Now I can't give up.
My mother suggested we get together...
at the Goldstone Hotel for dinner.
Why go elsewhere? Bring her to our place.
Do we have to have a wedding ceremony?
It's not the first wedding for either of us.
Can't we skip the formalities?
You want to?
Let's have a small ceremony, then.
You were at Jeong Woo Sang's wedding which never happened.
We can do something like that for our families only.
Let's do that. I got you a ring already.
Let's skip the gift and dowry and say we did all that.
Good idea. This is nothing to be proud of.
I'm not in the mood for a honeymoon, either.
Let's skip it all.
Do whatever you want, okay?
My gosh.
They're really getting married.
They are. It was love after all.
But...
for a bride-to-be, don't you think she doesn't look excited?
Why get married, then?
I just don't get it.
Why do you want to get it?
I noticed that you have lovely hands.
I do? Do you think so?
Your other features are lovely too.
Really?
Am I that lovely?
You know you are.
"Am I that lovely?"
Why did you copy me?
You're cute when you talk.
Your hands really are lovely.
Shall I read your palms?
My gosh.
How come you say things I'd expect to hear from an old man?
Here.
Let me see.
You're unlucky in love at first.
That changes in your later years.
- For real? - Yes.
Goodness.
This smells lovely.
I saw the coffee dripper and wondered when I'd get to drink from it.
I didn't have the energy or time for it.
Coffee is all about the aroma.
It is.
How about we drink this on the rooftop?
All we have to do this afternoon is email Hansung.
There's no rush.
Right. Thanks to Director Jin, we have so much extra time.
Shall we go upstairs?
The director reduced our workload. Let's consider it a paid holiday...
and go upstairs...
to enjoy our coffee.
That's a great idea.
(Executive Director, Jin Sang Ah)
How about we drink this on the rooftop?
All we have to do this afternoon is email Hansung.
There's no rush.
Right. Thanks to Director Jin, we have so much extra time.
Shall we go upstairs?
Isn't it cool up here?
It is. It's quiet too.
And...
it's a nice place to kiss too.
Darn it.
Once we send the final floor plan,
the builders will start working.
That's pretty quick.
I'm glad we changed the flooring.
The cost we saved on that went into some detailed fixtures,
and it upgraded the look.
Then check the details one last time before you send the email.
I'll drop by the reference library.
Okay.
Ms. Pi. Can I have a word?
What? Are you busy?
What is it, director?
It looks like everyone else is out.
Go to the reference library and pull the files on all the pastoral houses...
we designed in the last three years.
- Right now? - Yes.
I need them right now for a new project.
Okay. I'll do it.
(New email)
(Final floor plan)
(Hello, this is Jin Architecture.)
(Revised floor plan)
My gosh.
She's usually so rude,
but she calls me "Ms. Pi" only when she needs something.
(Final floor plan)
What on earth...
Do you need help?
Yes. Thank you.
What's all this? Is it an errand for Sang Ah?
Yes.
Jin Sang Ah...
is such a nuisance.
My goodness.
- Let's go. - It's heavy, isn't it?
It's fine.
(Here's the final floor plan.)
(Final floor plan)
(Attachments)
(Desperate Mrs. Seon Ju)
Do you know what Seon Ju and So Woo are up to?
They're all fired up.
They're openly dating at work.
Pi Mi Ju is a nobody.
With these three, we don't need to cast anyone else.
Isn't it the hottest triangle ever?
Let's go with all or nothing.
You heard, didn't you? I'm marrying Director Jin.
You sound so proud.
I'll show you I made the right choice.
