(Durian's Affair)
(All characters, organizations, and events in this drama are fictitious.)
(Animals were filmed according to guidelines.)
My lady.
Could you please forgive...
my rudeness?
Can you guess...
how I feel?
Do you not know?
My life...
is not mine.
My life is for you.
Welcome home, sir.
(Episode 10)
Is Ms. Lee in the chairwoman's room?
No, she's at the hospital.
Our housekeeper got injured yesterday.
Give it to me.
- Hi. - Are you already at work?
I'm at Mother's house.
Why did you go there?
Why else? I'm here to eat breakfast with Mother.
And to leave Ohyiji in her care. We can't leave Ohyiji alone.
Did the caregiver come?
Mr. Dan is here.
Mother is up.
Send Ohyiji back with Mr. Han.
He should not have seen that.
I made abalone porridge.
Thank you.
Should I ask them to make toast?
Porridge is fine.
Where is your food?
Don't be silly.
Bring your food. Eat with us.
Hi, Eun Sung.
I'm sorry to call you this early, Se Mi.
It's not early.
Do you know any housekeepers who could work for me?
Did your housekeeper quit?
Is it a fracture? Is it broken?
It's a slight fracture.
She also has a severe concussion.
You need to be careful on marble floors.
When there's water on the floor, you'll slip right away.
Don't you eat kimchi?
Do you not like our kimchi?
Could I try making some?
Are you saying it's not good?
For our taste...
Try making some. You said you were good at it.
Ask the housekeeper to order ingredients for you.
Or you can go to the traditional market with her.
What don't you like about it?
Is it simply not tasty?
Or is it slightly lacking something?
Be honest.
Our company makes and sells this kimchi.
If we can make it taste better, we should.
First, I will try making some.
Let's see how Joseon kimchi tastes.
Honey!
And please forget the embarrassment...
I caused last night.
Mom doesn't change her mind often, right?
She tends not to.
Why? Is Ayla going back and forth about something?
No. She's fine.
Did you meet someone new?
I don't have time for that.
Starting tomorrow, we will study English.
You really need to learn English.
I got your photos.
They turned out well. You look so pretty.
If she fractured her ankle,
she won't be able to work for a while.
What time do you usually get off work?
At eleven. I got off a bit late today.
Here.
Father took special care to paint this.
Gosh. This is a precious piece of art.
You like grapefruit juice, right?
I'll drink it.
Do we have grapefruit?
No, ma'am.
Then have sikhye instead.
We made a fresh batch today.
The chocolate I had at the airport in France...
was truly amazing.
But I don't know the brand name.
I'll stop by France and bring some back.
I told you I didn't know the name of it.
If I buy various chocolates, one of those...
That's too many calories. It'll also spike my blood sugar.
When Deung Myung was born,
it was such a joyous occasion for our family, right?
It really was.
When I look at you, I feel I need to be a good person.
You are blessed in many ways.
Am I blessed to be like this?
You only got hurt that much because you are blessed.
A minor collision is barely an accident.
What are you trying to say?
It's okay. I'm not hungry.
We could hear the cry of a baby in our house soon.
Is Woo Mi pregnant?
No, not Woo Mi.
It can't be Deung Myung.
They say, "Nothing is certain except for death and taxes."
No way.
But that's just a saying.
Who is it then?
Is it Chi Gam?
We hope so.
I knew it.
How could you hit your aging son in the head?
Who is it?
Whom did you get pregnant?
- Not me. - If not you, who?
The elegant Du Ri An.
Du Ri An?
Not So Jeo? Du Ri An?
Did she say she was pregnant?
I saw her almost throw up last night.
I think that's why she's so insistent on wearing a hanbok.
Are you sure?
She went like this.
It is a joyous occasion.
If I exaggerate, it's so rare to see an infant these days.
You're going to ask her? That'll make me look bad.
There's an old saying.
"Beware of the silent man and still water."
I'm imagining all kinds of things.
Maybe she was being raised in some sort of cult,
and she was growing older...
No.
That gives me a headache. None of it makes sense.
I won't quibble over that. I won't think about it.
We just have to sit back and enjoy the ride...
I mean, the baby.
Will it be a boy...
or a girl?
You're right.
That's why she didn't eat kimchi.
Because she made her sick.
How can I wear this?
I feel embarrassed just looking at it. Put it away.
All of the women walking around had nice, voluminous breasts.
It was because of this thing.
Can they breathe?
I guess they wear it because they can breathe.
Try it on.
- Come and roast some seaweed. - Yes, madam.
Just focus on memorizing "Master Jung."
Don't expect too much from men.
You'll just be disappointed more.
Deung Myung is also a man. He'll have some limits.
How can you get married without expectations?
My father never really disappointed us.
If you're not disappointed, you'll be sad in some other way.
You saw what happened to us, right?
We thought medical accidents only happened to other people,
but it hit us very hard.
I'm not saying so because he's my son.
Deung Myung has a perfect character.
People his age normally just have fun and enjoy life,
but he's dedicated to acting only.
If he wanted to,
he could easily date 1,000 female fans.
I'm saying he doesn't have the personality of a player.
If he's good at pleasing you...
and doing everything for you,
he'll be the same to other women.
A strength can become a weakness.
A weakness can be a strength.
When you get older,
you'll understand what I mean.
She's right.
Your father isn't perfect either.
He's so wishy-washy...
and only into painting.
All you need a man to do is to be dedicated to work.
That's a good man.
Is it so hard for them to care for their partners...
as much as they care about work and try to make up...
when we're upset about something?
We said goodbye like that yesterday,
but he hasn't texted me even once.
It's because he doesn't know how.
He doesn't have experience with women.
Playboys can make you melt when they're in front of you,
but when you can't see them, they're up to no good.
I don't like morning swims.
I can't catch a cold.
What will you do for me if I don't go?
You should do something for me.
- A deep kiss? - No.
French kiss?
It's still the morning.
There's no morning and night when it comes to love.
- Do you love me? - Do you not?
I came because I wanted an underwater kiss.
Mom mentioned we should start preparing wedding gifts.
Don't change the topic.
The security guard will come.
I just need one thing. Nothing else.
Right. Two things.
We should give each other rings.
What?
Grow your hair out this long.
This length is just right. If it's too long, it looks old-fashioned.
Still.
How am I supposed to wash it? It's very annoying, you know.
Can't you do that much for me?
Why are you so into long hair suddenly?
I'm curious about the reason.
Just because.
I think it'll fit you, and it'll be sexy.
Am I not sexy enough?
Being more than enough is good too. The sexier, the better.
I could look like a succubus.
I'll be an incubus, then.
What if it doesn't fit the movie I'm working on?
If I have short hair, I can use hair extensions, but...
Do you plan to continue acting?
Will you provide for me forever?
Of course.
Live only looking at me while taking care of your body.
Thank you for saying that.
I'm not joking.
Ha Ni.
What's up?
What are you doing at the pool?
(Ha Ni)
Are you alone?
What if someone takes a picture?
It's viral marketing.
I'm not talking about that.
Where's Mr. Dan?
What did you eat so much of while you were out?
Cake.
Black tea.
Sa...
- Salad? - Yes.
They're all just snacks.
I guess that's what Ms. Ma likes.
Do you not like the mango?
Is it not appetizing?
No, madam.
What fruit do you like?
What do you want to eat?
Mother likes strawberries.
Strawberries?
Something sour and sweet.
And?
Okay.
Whatever you want to eat, tell me.
When you're healthy, eating tasty things gives your life...
joy and energy.
I stop myself even when I want to eat something...
because I'm afraid of gaining weight at this old age.
Mom. If we stretch it a bit, you look like you're in your 20s.
Think of it as fate that has brought us together.
And since we can afford it,
we'll do all we can for you.
We'll support So Jeo wholeheartedly too.
Our chairwoman says what she means.
There are two types of people.
Those who are grateful for any favors they're given,
and those who are grateful at first but then take it for granted...
and demand more.
Which type are you?
I don't beat around the bush.
We will do...
what we promised.
I will become successful and repay you.
I don't expect to be paid back.
Just don't stab me in the back.
Why? For your own sake.
No one gets away with...
stabbing someone in the back.
- That's right. - Age-wise, I could be...
your mother.
I say this because you're like...
my daughter and granddaughter.
I understand very well.
Can you do me a favor?
Change out of your hanbok. Isn't it uncomfortable?
You saw my two basement rooms full of clothes.
There's so much to choose from.
I cannot...
show my bare skin.
Will someone arrest you if you do?
Or eat your flesh?
I don't get it.
Be sure we always have durian.
I'm not teasing you.
Can we still get strawberries?
All year round.
Be sure we always have some.
Yes, ma'am.
What did you buy today?
We could not find...
beoseon and a fine-tooth comb.
We also bought things to cover our most private parts...
and second most private parts.
You just pretend to eat.
Put down your spoon if you have no appetite.
Do not ruin your company's appetite as well.
If there is anything you crave,
tell Song Yi.
I do not.
Anyway,
you must have a healthy child.
You struggled to get pregnant.
Why are you crying?
Did you ever consider...
how your husband feels?
It's sweet.
Ohyiji loves mangoes too.
Even animals know what's nice.
How much does a place like this cost?
Who knows?
Will you be long?
Don't ask. It stresses me out.
- Why did you get out? - Don't you want my company?
I think there's something about you.
I'm not a psychic.
Did I say you were?
- You have a sixth sense. - Are you introducing yourself?
- Watch your words. - Look in the mirror.
Your eyes gleam.
Is that why actors fear me?
All but you.
I fear you just as much.
Be nice to the actresses.
And become a pushover?
Won't you get married?
You should date at least.
I do.
- I do. - As a guy,
I think you're a catch.
Right? You think so too?
She's not even a nobody.
How could they cast a complete novice?
To play a lowly maid, maybe.
She's the female lead.
You had a lot of coffee, I bet?
Yes.
He had three cups so far. It's less than his usual.
- Who are you? - Assistant Director Yoo Ro.
I'm out of business cards.
"Euro?" Not "Dollar," then?
This is a family discussion.
- Okay. - Yoo Ro is practically a family.
Is that so?
I said you could not cast So Jeo.
- Are you the director? - I'm the lead's mother.
Respect the director's decision.
You're his uncle.
You should do what'll benefit your nephew.
We haven't even started. The outcome is unknown.
Ask anyone in the street.
Min Soo Ji is a better partner for Deung Myung.
A nobody like So Jeo?
- An ordinary... - Wait and see...
Don't cut in!
No one has reported it yet.
Go with Min Soo Ji.
Don't you care about ratings?
We rejected Min Soo Ji...
yesterday.
People get cast and dropped.
You can always call her back.
Casting isn't a joke.
It isn't. It's important, so do a proper job...
The writer approved it too.
I get how you feel, but trust in me and drop it.
Ju Nam, you know what I'm capable of.
I don't know myself sometimes.
This isn't wordplay!
I'm stating a fact. Don't take it like that.
Do you know yourself perfectly?
Hello? I'm at...
You have a knack for stabbing people in the back.
Isn't stabbing people in the back your expertise?
What are you talking about?
Do you want me to refresh your memory?
You checked out this place with So Soon Hyang.
You acted uninterested...
and said it was too expensive and flawed.
Then bought the place as soon as you parted.
Is that what she said?
I thought...
There's something I can't get over.
When I was in middle school, Mom and I visited you in Seoul.
You said you'd marry your blind date.
Mom was overjoyed when she heard who the groom was.
That it was your luck.
"Will you get engaged first?"
Just when our stepmom was about to speak,
you interrupted her...
and said you'd just have the wedding...
because your fiancé's grandmother was on her deathbed.
We believed you.
Then we found out you'd gotten engaged...
at Geumgang Hotel without us.
How could you?
Do you know how upset Mom was?
We really had decided to skip an engagement.
But his grandmother said...
we shouldn't change how things were done...
since it was both families' first marriage.
You could've called, then.
And what? Put pressure on you?
What pressure? What are you talking about?
Think of what Mom and Dad did for you.
After Auntie died, we scattered to Seoul and Daejeon,
but they looked out for you.
- I know that. - And you did that?
- We were poor. - A middle-school teacher...
isn't poor.
We had nothing compared to you.
You were embarrassed...
we couldn't dress to the level your in-laws would.
Are you a novelist now?
Am I that shallow?
Aren't you? You don't think you are?
From your point of view, I'm just extra luggage.
Even so, it was a family celebration.
Couldn't we have dressed as best we could to attend?
It's about wanting to bless you, not how we look.
If you had been that worried we'd feel pressured,
you could've given us money for clothes.
Did you not care?
You lived abroad.
You should know better than to cut in.
Socially speaking, I'm your elder.
Did you ever act like it?
Giving us leftover food you don't eat?
You're scaring me now. This is sickening.
Is that what you thought I did?
I didn't give you leftovers.
Do you know how much work it is to cook?
What you're doing right now is stabbing me in the back.
That's what you thought about me, but you acted indifferently...
I've lived on my own for 20 years.
I can distinguish fresh food from old food.
Once it's cooked and put in the fridge...
Whatever. Forget it.
Thanks a lot for the food that took great effort.
Did you keep all that bottled up...
to mess with Deung Myung now?
You're not that stupid.
If my drama were to flop enough to hurt Deung Myung,
would I be unscathed?
Actors can find more work...
because a flopped drama isn't the actor's fault.
It's on the writer's bad script and the director's poor work.
A writer and director might never get another chance.
I'm more desperate to succeed!
How much do you know about dramas that you'd babble and interfere?
I babbled?
Remember your place!
You're just a director. You're nothing!
If I'm just a director,
you're just a housewife.
A stay-at-home mom.
Fine, I forgot my place.
I can think of nothing but my new drama.
I might as well vent now.
Before I left for the US,
my college friends, young or old, gave me a few dollars.
For my tuition.
All you gave was advice. "Don't get distracted. Study hard."
That was it.
- Was that it? - Yes.
My husband didn't give you anything?
Ask your husband if he did.
If he did, if I'd gotten just ten dollars,
I'll change my name.
You're upset about everything.
Wouldn't you be?
I'm not a deity. I'm human!
I'm grateful and touched if I'm given something,
and I get hurt and angry when I'm looked down on!
I have emotions!
Don't comment on who I cast ever again.
This isn't how you treat a guest.
You didn't offer us anything.
You only drink coffee.
I didn't come alone.
Did I tell you to bring someone?
You didn't ask. That was rude of you.
You never gave me anything,
so quit talking about my studies abroad.
The more I look, the less I can believe it.
Let me see yours.
It cannot be that our souls were sucked out and imprinted.
We must really keep our wits about us.
I feel more and more afraid.
Everything exceeds my imagination.
What is this used for?
You needn't come.
When you got slapped,
my heart hurt as if I'd been slapped.
- Shut it. - Okay.
Goodnight.
- Yoo Ro. - Yes, Director?
Don't bow physically. Respect is enough.
I'll bow physically...
and with respect.
I was quite the dancer in my day.
People think that other than being widowed,
I have three great sons and a flashy life.
But as a person, I'm quite pitiful.
Why did I marry so young...
and spend my whole life with that man?
It wasn't even my whole life.
He left me a widow long ago.
I still look pretty good.
Though I owe that to medical science.
You can rest, Mother.
I just need to wash this.
When it is just right,
I wish he would come and have some.
He will.
It is not something we finish in one sitting.
You must be very tired today.
As would you.
I think I am getting used to it.
What is this thing called "English?"
I cannot even guess.
We will find out tomorrow.
Our country is here, the Korean Peninsula.
Across the Pacific Ocean is a country called America.
It's where Mr. Dan Chi Jung went on a business trip.
English is the primary official language of the world,
so you must study it.
It's hard to get by if you don't know the basics.
It's sikhye.
Is no one home?
They're out.
They're busy. They have people to meet for their drama.
Unusual things happen each day.
It will continue forever.
Look forward to it.
We have sikhye too.
You don't.
You say sikhye from the store is too sweet.
Take this.
It's not good if it's not sweet enough.
You're so cute.
Serve my mother-in-law some.
It'll be just how you like it.
Did the housekeeper quit?
Must you ask me that?
She took a break.
How do you know my tastes?
You have so many masks.
Aren't I charming in a way?
- Watch it. - I'm serious.
What about me? Am I not?
You're so eloquent but so stubborn.
Leave.
I just got here.
I want to lie down.
Then listen lying down.
It concerns Eun Sung.
Her housekeeper can't work for a while.
She seems to want to borrow your housekeeper.
What about us, then?
Why did she send you to request that?
She called to discuss the matter. She's frustrated.
I could look after you instead.
Forget it.
Most housekeepers these days are from overseas.
I don't care where they're from if...
Eun Sung goes to the gym or a gathering every other day.
She's busier than most.
She needs someone she can communicate with.
While a friend of mine was traveling Europe,
her housekeeper called a moving van...
and took almost everything that was worth anything.
It's true.
You must've heard similar stories from people.
I'll give you a massage.
Lie down.
I'll see if I can find someone.
- Mother. - Don't bother me.
I'm done talking.
(Best Deung)
- Hi. - What time do you get off?
- At four. - That late?
I have a wardrobe fitting.
I'll call when I'm there.
You'll come here?
You can be honest with me.
- I understand anything. - About what?
Do you love Ayla?
Yes.
Is it more of an attachment?
I think that's stronger than love.
There are people who love both men and women.
Sometimes, you fall for someone of the same gender.
Just like how we all have different faces, love can come...
No, it's not like that.
- No? - No.
You say you like Ayla,
but I don't think you're sincere.
I heard you didn't propose to her yet.
I couldn't find the time.
Did you meet with her?
She paid a visit.
Can't you balance your work and love life?
They're both important.
- I know. - Don't hurt a woman.
She might not show it,
but you know there is an illness only Korean women get.
They can get sick from anger. It happens when we hold it in.
They hold themselves back time and again,
then they suffer from depression.
I'll pay more attention.
Did your makeup team change?
No. Why do you ask?
You looked extra pretty today.
Did you watch the news?
Yes.
I guess you're saying I don't look so pretty in real life.
Am I?
What is that about?
You only looked pretty on the screen.
I prefer your baby face.
What got into this sleepyhead?
I'm grateful that you watched it.
- I have to make a call. - Okay.
You're going to drive for me too?
Put your earphones on.
Am I not allowed to eavesdrop?
No.
Who are you calling?
- It's a long-distance call. - Linda?
Yes. It might get too loud.
Isn't it midnight in Las Vegas?
It's not my birthday.
It must've been a lot of trouble for your manager.
He doesn't know about this.
I did half of it.
Seriously?
I'm moved.
I better ask you what your wish is.
Well...
I shouldn't ask you something that could pressure you.
Ask me before I change my mind.
Really?
- Marry me. - Excuse me?
If I'm qualified to marry you,
please accept this ring.
Of course.
I love you.
Gosh.
I forgot to record it. Do it again.
Hey.
Spraying the bathroom with water is different from cleaning it.
I cleaned it properly.
If that's the case, why is the sink still dirty?
I didn't clean the sink.
Why not?
Because it looked clean.
You didn't look at it, did you?
How can you call that clean?
Go and take a look!
Lucky.
Television, card,
drama, and ice cream.
All the words we did not know were English.
You are right.
Mother, does it not cross your mind from time to time?
I mean the ice cream Mr. Dan bought us.
It was extremely tasty.
In our English teacher's words,
the taste was fantastic.
Is it because you are young?
You have such a good memory.
Let us go out to buy some.
How?
It is not a long walk.
Would it not be dangerous?
It is bright as day outside.
You saw people walking around at midnight, did you not?
Still...
You have me.
Looking at this makes me desperate for that taste.
This will be enough, right?
- Are you that excited? - Yes.
You sometimes turn into a child after coming to this future world.
I must be like a child all the time in your eyes.
It is Shin Saimdang.
Look. Here.
All the studying was worth it.
Both for you and me.
It's 125.
What do you normally get in the morning?
I get around 120.
It's normal for my age.
Did you come from the factory or the office?
The office.
Thanks to your talent in business management,
you're always outdoing yourself.
But you're too busy, and it worries me.
You hardly get the chance to play golf these days.
I have three days booked to play next week.
Don't play too early in the morning.
I won't. It can put me in bad shape.
I must be getting old too.
Even a young person can get into bad shape.
Make sure to keep working on your balance...
if you want to continue enjoying golf.
Is everyone sleeping already?
I doubt it. They don't sleep much.
They always study until late at night.
Tell So Jeo and Ri An to come out.
Did you make kimchi?
Yes, yesterday.
My apologizes. They went out for some fresh air nearby.
When?
About 20 or 30 minutes ago.
But they don't know their way around here.
Why would they go for fresh air at this hour?
They don't even have a phone. It's dangerous.
But this neighborhood is safe.
Anyone can tell they're from a rural area.
That's not true. They look like nobles.
Also, So Jeo is pretty clever.
I wouldn't worry so much if they were kids.
I'll go look for them if they don't return soon.
Get me a warm cup of water.
Yes, ma'am.
On top of that, she's pregnant.
Who is?
Ri An.
Really?
I wonder why I can't get drunk today.
- Don't you know? - I don't.
Because you're already drunk.
Drunk in love with you?
- In love. - Is it just me?
I am too.
Today feels different.
And do you not like it?
I like it.
Should we get married after "Master Jung" is over?
That way, we can prepare it properly.
I'll get you a new one for our tenth anniversary.
What if they want to extend the series?
The drama has to do well.
Even if it's a hit, no extensions.
I don't want that.
Aren't you going to answer me?
All right.
What do you think about...
raising the baby yourself when it's born?
The baby won't have a father.
No one knows who it is.
I'm sure she knows.
I don't know what she's planning.
Maybe they don't have a plan at all.
Their fingerprints weren't registered,
so I have no idea who they are.
(Eun Sung)
- I'll be there soon. - Are you on your way?
There is so much fun in eating...
in the future.
Perhaps too much.
The streets are full of stores that sell food.
Also...
Mother.
I wonder if he will think ill of us.
Everyone here eats as they walk.
My mother was worried about you.
I did not want to bother her,
so I only informed the housekeeper.
It's melting.
Help them throw it out.
Goodnight.
Are you cold?
You look pale.
Is it because I ate two?
You ate two of them?
Yes.
Get in the car for a moment. There's a cafe nearby.
You should drink something warm...
or you'll catch a cold.
I ran into them in front of the house.
I'll take them for some tea before returning them home.
Your father wants to spend the night here.
He really loves the fresh air.
I didn't know there was such a place near Seoul.
Am I heavy?
You're not light as a bird feather.
You're light as a duck feather.
There are cameras.
Let's go to my place.
I want to show it to my mom.
Right now?
- Are you tired? - Of course not. It's a good day.
It should be more than a good day.
It's a happy and meaningful day.
Call her and let her know we're coming.
- We should surprise her. - What if she's sleeping?
She doesn't go to bed until I'm home.
And Dan Deung Myung is always welcome.
He is the most handsome out of her three sons.
He has a good figure too.
The clothes make him look better.
A topknot would not go so well with that outfit.
Do you love ice cream that much?
Be careful or you'll get sick.
I heard you made kimchi yesterday.
- Yes. - Which kimchi are you best at?
I know how...
to make all of them.
I should take you on a tour around our kimchi factory.
We have one in Gapyeong.
Do you make kimchi there?
- Yes. - Excuse me.
Are you feeling sick?
Yes.
The restrooms are over there.
Pardon me.
She must have a stomachache.
How about you?
I am okay.
But...
you shouldn't eat such cold foods.
If what my mother says is true,
it would be best to get a check-up.
You must.
What did your mother say?
I am not ill.
Did she say...
that I have an illness?
That is not true.
I should act oblivious,
but I'm worried.
About what?
About what my mother said.
She thinks you're pregnant.
Me?
Are you not?
What got her the wrong idea?
That is impossible.
It looked like she heard it from Chi Jung.
We had chicken the other day, but my body could not take it.
I threw up.
I guess after seeing that...
He probably made an assumption because he was worried.
Men don't know much about such things.
Yes, Ma'am.
Tell Mr. Dan to pick up his phone.
It's turned off.
Hello?
Yes, ma'am.
Aren't you on your way back home?
Have you applied the cream I gave you?
Yes.
Seoul is a convenient place to live in...
but it's too dry because it's urban.
You look good.
Why is she taking so long?
I should go and check up on her.
Right.
- So Jeo. - Yes.
Do you need a lot more time?
What should I do?
What is it?
I see a sign of my menstrual cycle.
Could you do something temporarily?
It is out of control.
Ayla.
You definitely look sexy tonight.
Get back here!
- Get him. - Come back here.
You little...
Lady Ri An.
Please look at me.
I feel shy.
But this is me.
- You punk. - Come on.
- Come here. - Darn it.
Hey, come back here!
You punk!
You must have been startled.
A fight at a cafe? Gosh.
I do not know what to do.
Is something wrong with So Jeo?
Please tell me.
Her menstrual cycle...
must have started.
I see.
I can get someone to buy what she needs.
The pharmacy was right next door.
Can you go to the pharmacy next door and buy feminine hygiene products?
Yes, sir.
Ms. Lee called.
She said your phone was turned off.
Okay.
Ms. Lee called me.
I told her you got out of the car...
to answer a call from an acquaintance.
(Missed call)
Is that why So Jeo is stuck inside?
It's natural for women to undergo menstruation.
She has nothing to be embarrassed about.
When you get your resident registration card,
you must buy a cell phone first.
Do you want to try using it?
We had a chance to play with Ms. Ma Young Sin's cell phone.
Have you tried taking a photo with it?
If you don't like it, we can delete it.
Or you can take a photo of me.
It's this button.
I cannot believe he has become a breathtakingly handsome man.
When I look at my photos, I can tell that I'm aging.
You look great right now.
I can delete it.
I have never seen such elegance from any other woman.
No one can mimic this elegance of hers...
and her grace.
This is not a dream, is it?
He is right in front of me,
but I cannot believe everything I see here.
This photo is too good to delete.
If you are thirsty, you should have a drink.
I'm okay.
Hello. Is my uncle here?
Yes.
Come on.
What are you doing here?
- Hello. - Hey.
Did you two have a drink?
Yes.
I'm here with So Jeo and her mother-in-law.
Sit down.
Whose idea was it to come here?
What if people swarmed over you for autographs?
People in Gangnam rarely do that.
They see celebrities quite often all over Gangnam.
We've never been to a cafe like this.
You two should order something to drink.
Do you want coffee?
Surprise me.
Did they go to the restroom?
Yes.
I do not know how I am going to face him.
The world has changed.
So people seem to treat it as a natural process for women.
And it has already happened.
But I am glad that we were able to handle it.
We should go back home right away.
It is getting late too.
Please let me.
How come...
I am sorry.
Don't be.
We meet again.
Yes.
He proposed.
- Today? - Yes.
Congratulations.
Wait. Was that the right way to congratulate you?
Well, anyway.
An engagement ring?
He said he would get me a new one for the tenth anniversary.
Did you buy the ring yourself?
- Yes. - Do your parents know?
I'm going to tell them.
If your mother had known,
she would have helped you get a bigger ring.
It's more meaningful coming from me.
That's true.
I guess you guys are done talking.
Do you want us to leave?
No.
I offer my congratulations to you.
You will have your wedding soon.
How many years have we known each other?
Can we take a photo with you?
Sure.
I can't believe it!
All right. In 1, 2, 3.
Can I take one more?
In 1, 2, 3.
Last one.
Someone should take a photo of us and post it online.
Both of your families must have an official meeting then.
Yes.
- Thank you. - Sure.
Let's go.
You must have had a lot of drinks.
Why do you care?
I didn't pass out from drinking too much like someone.
I had what people call "wine" for the first time that day.
I didn't ask.
You'll star in the drama, "Master Jung."
Aren't you even worried?
I must face it. What else could I do?
That's nice and all.
But what if the drama flops?
Not a hit but a flop.
What will you do then?
I do not understand what she is saying.
I do not understand what you mean.
See?
You don't even know the day-to-day expressions people use.
Are you acting boldly because you're ignorant?
What? I'm only saying these things because I'm just worried.
You are right to be worried.
One's devotion can move the sky.
I will devote myself and do my best.
If devotion could make everyone a good actress,
we'll all be actresses.
What else could I do?
I was offered a great role. So I must take it.
That is the way of the universe.
Unbelievable. She's lecturing me when she's younger than me?
I have so much to learn as I do not know a lot of things.
Actually, I know nothing.
However, I can understand the scripts for "Master Jung."
And my heart understands what my character feels.
What's the point?
You must be able to express it if you want to act.
It's me,
Ms. Lee.
Why are you calling me at this hour?
Aren't you even worried if I'm doing okay here?
Gosh. Does she want me to care about her?
You know what?
What is this?
Go on.
"When birds die,"
"there's sorrow in their cries."
"But when people die,"
"there's kindness in their words."
Who said that?
Don't you know who said that?
Must I know?
(Durian's Affair)
What's so special about So Jeo?
Who knows what kind of upbringing she had?
She's clueless and doesn't know anything.
- She's just a girl. - But that mere girl has...
the best image of a pure, innocent girl.
I should not say this,
but I am determined now, Mother.
Do you recognize me?
Do you truly not recognize me?
You used to be my loving husband.
When I closed my eyes, I saw your face.
I would like to tell you how tough it had been for me.
You must have missed me.
The housekeeper is acting weird.
You don't think she has brain damage, right?
Why do you say that?
How can I get a taste of clubbing?
You just need a makeover.
You've got a great body.
You can just wear slightly revealing clothes.
Under the lights?
How do you relieve stress?
You should try it out too.
Are we going to meet girls too?
Dancing isn't the only thing we do at clubs.
Gosh, I must be out of my mind.
I'm thinking of meeting guys.
I wonder where Deung Myung got his good genes.
- He's such a good-natured boy. - What do you mean?
It is over 11 p.m.
Everyone is coming home late, including the chairwoman.
Chairwoman Baek, who are you with at this late hour?
I had my eyes on you the moment you walked in.
(Is he in his mid-thirties? Or forties?)
Dan Chi Kang is a man too. Of course, he'll be tempted.
Don't bring up my mother again.
I've been told you've been busy preparing for the drama.
I'll cut to the chase.
You are not joking?
Why would I joke about this?
We should send the housekeeper to the cottage in Singal.
- Can you get your mom's approval? - Why?
If we jump back into the pond, will we be able to go back?
I feel the same way.
Could there be a way to go back?
Should we pray with pure water?
Du Ri An.
