The leaves are falling!
Gosh, look at the leaves.
You look good.
Let's go.
Seoul's current temperature is 21°C.
The relative humidity is 43 percent.
What was that?
The high temperature and humidity
of the North Pacific air mass have retreated.
The pleasant fall weather that is neither hot nor cold has begun.
There is a migratory anticyclone from the west around this season,
and it feels pleasant.
I'll be back.
Everything is wonderful during this season, but I…
got my heart broken.
I never gave her anything.
DIRECTOR JIN HA-KYUNG
Hello?
Hey, it's me.
Are you still using these lotion bottles?
Yes, I haven't finished using them yet.
Really? Okay.
Also…
are all these chargers yours?
No, the black Type-C one is Senior Forecaster Um's.
There are several black ones.
I'll pack them all up. You can give it to him.
Okay.
By the way,
you don't have to pack my things for me.
I'll go later--
It's okay. I'm almost done. I'll hand them over at work.
But they're heavy.
-I'll stop by later-- -You don't need to.
Bye.
EPISODE 14 MIGRATORY ANTICYCLONE
Director Jin!
Are you here for your stuff? I said I'd bring it to you. Wait here.
There's a problem.
What problem?
They found out.
Found out what?
That we dated.
What?
I heard you're dating Director Jin.
What?
Were you already dating when we stayed at her place?
Where did you hear that from?
It wasn't from anyone specific.
Everyone on our team knew except me.
Everyone?
Everyone.
Everyone on our team found out
that you and I dated.
What are you saying?
They know that we went out?
Yes. And I'm sure
everyone in the KMA also knows by now.
What?
You scared me.
I knew it.
Why are you here?
So that means you two dated at work. Is that right?
-Mom, that's-- -I knew there was something going on.
-It's a misunderstanding. -Misunderstanding, my foot.
I knew you'd deny it.
So I got evidence.
Will you deny it?
Will you still deny it?
FATHER
What do his parents do?
Don't ask anything.
I can ask that much.
There's no point.
Why not?
We broke up.
What's wrong?
Are you just saying that
-in case I ruin everything? -Mom.
Grade Eight or Nine?
Can you please…
This is important.
It does slightly bother me that he's your subordinate.
But he's younger than you,
so we should be more understanding.
Did he go to university?
Are both of his parents alive?
Where do they live?
I said we broke up.
I ought to know
about his parents to have a better understanding
of what kind of person he is.
Then I won't make any mistakes
when I eventually meet them.
You're wrong, Mom. We broke up.
I believed what you said
and was arrogant, thinking I was a great catch.
Then he dumped me. Happy?
I won't fall for it.
Tell me his birthdate and the time of his birth.
Mom.
What? Shouldn't you find out about your compatibility?
I can't believe this.
Why don't you listen?
INNOVATIVE WEATHER SERVICES A STEPPING STONE TO PUBLIC SAFETY
Are you okay?
DIRECTOR JIN HA-KYUNG
Did you speak with your mother?
FATHER
The person you are calling is currently unavailable…
Come on. Why isn't he picking up?
Tell me what happened.
Okay. I was driving on the inside lane.
I wasn't even speeding.
But then, he suddenly walked toward my car.
I had no way to dodge him.
-Is he serious? -I'm truly innocent.
Don't you lie through your teeth.
You drove into me
when I was just walking by!
My head is split open!
-I-- -You did nothing wrong?
Damn it.
Hey. Breakfast is ready. Get dressed and come out.
I'm not that hungry.
But I made dumpling soup, your favorite.
Look. Doesn't it look good?
Sorry.
I'm feeling nauseous right now.
Okay.
Yu-jin.
Yes?
If it's too much for you,
let's postpone registering our marriage.
I'm really fine,
so you can take your time.
Honestly, there are many things I still don't know
since this is my first time getting married.
I really wanted to do well,
but nothing went the way I wanted.
That's why I haven't been a great husband to you.
I was embarrassed,
so I wanted to look tougher in front of you.
But…
I'll put in more effort from now on.
Let's make this work.
Okay?
Ki-jun.
Don't go to work on an empty stomach. How about some hot milk?
Sure.
Okay. Get ready and come out.
Twelfth floor.
Tae-kyung.
Ha-kyung.
I'm here because…
-I'm-- -Mom sent you, right?
What?
Unbelievable.
Doors closing.
Doors opening.
Hey, try to understand her.
Imagine how worried sick she was to send me here.
Still, she shouldn't have sent you here so early in the morning.
You're right. I didn't know you went to work this early.
I didn't think I was too early.
Why is she so obsessed with me
and marrying me off?
Why can't she believe that we broke up?
You broke up? With whom?
Whatever.
Tell her to mind her own business.
Never mind. I'll tell her.
Hey! No.
She'll kill me.
Why would she? You did nothing wrong.
What?
Do you think you'll be nice if you talk to her right now?
You'll talk harshly and upset her.
Then whom will she vent at? It'll be me.
She'll vent at me for days on end.
Gosh. Hey, Ha-kyung.
Are you seriously going to subject me to that?
That's exactly why you shouldn't call her.
I oppose it.
Never. At all costs.
Fine. What would you know?
Thank you, my dear sister.
You're really admirable.
You didn't see me today. Go to work.
I'll go first. Bye.
Honey.
Look at this.
What is that?
Check this out.
My dear Bo-mi.
Happy birthday!
Isn't it funny?
An alarm goes off for self-protection.
She'll love to hang this on her bag as a keychain, right?
She's in seventh grade.
Of course. I know that.
What kind of a seventh-grader would want that?
Really? This is a brand new toy.
Unbelievable.
I'm going to school.
Eat first.
No, thanks. I have a stomachache.
Why is she sick?
It's that time of the month.
-That time? -Bo-mi, at least drink this.
What time?
Oh, that time…
KOREA METEOROLOGICAL ADMINISTRATION
-Seriously? -Yes.
-Since when? -I heard they're dating.
-Another colleague? -How long has it been?
I heard it's Director Jin of Team Two.
I HEARD THEY'RE DATING
ANOTHER COLLEAGUE?
HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?
REALLY? I HEARD HE'S WITH DIRECTOR JIN
THEY LOOK GOOD TOGETHER
THEY'RE GOING OUT
THEY ARE? THEY'RE REALLY DATING?
REALLY? ANOTHER COLLEAGUE?
-Goodbye. -Goodbye.
I heard they're dating.
Since when?
They look good together.
Is it true?
-Forecaster Lee? -And Director Jin?
Are you serious?
Will she get married this time?
They suit each other. What a lovely couple.
What's done is done.
There's no turning back.
Sorry?
I'm talking about Director Jin here.
She's already experienced the pain
of dating a colleague.
Yet you still decided to date her. What choice do you have?
"Heavy is the head that wears the crown."
-Don't you agree? -Right.
But to tell you the truth--
It's okay. I root for you guys.
I hope you have a beautiful relationship
and I also hope she doesn't get hurt again.
If she gets hurt in the same way again,
she might really get on a flight to Geneva.
I'm not just saying this for her sake.
Don't you think having
three different directors in a year is ridiculous?
We're finally starting to build up teamwork.
Right.
But then again,
I'm sure you guys thought long and hard before making this decision.
I doubt you guys would have dated to begin with
if it wasn't serious.
Right.
Don't mind the others.
-Okay? -Okay.
-Good luck, Forecaster Lee. -Thank you.
What is it?
What should we do?
People are taking it more seriously than they should.
Ignore them.
Don't listen to them or reply.
Then they'll stop talking about it over time.
-But-- -I'm hanging up if it isn't about work.
And don't call me about things like this at work.
Good work.
Thank you.
-Thank you. -Sure.
Anything in particular?
Things are peaceful for once.
The upper-level trough near Lake Baikal is developing
quicker than it did last year.
It's only a week faster.
In any case, the weather's nice.
The disaster prevention season is over, so we have more time now.
It's the best season to fall in love.
It's the best season to do many things.
I think the live monitoring team won't be too busy.
To prepare for the winter season, why don't you analyze the first frost
in the past 30 years?
Isn't it too soon?
Come on.
We're finally taking a breather. Let us relax.
The prevention season may be over, but you should still be alert.
Migratory anticyclones are always followed by cyclones.
The slightest change in the air current
causes abnormal weather, so let's be on our toes.
We don't have time to joke around at work.
All right.
It was just one joke.
You don't have to make such a big deal out of it.
Goodness.
Are you coming in or going out?
Well…
You know Mi-seon, right?
We went to the same college.
She had a publication party yesterday,
and I was meaning to have just one drink.
She published another book?
Yes.
Good going.
It's been less than a year since she last published a book.
How many years has it been for you?
I'm publishing one too.
That's why I signed a contract with a publisher.
Goodness. We'll see if you really publish one or not.
Who knows how long it'll take when you're wasting your time like this?
Jeez. Mom.
What if mine becomes a bestseller?
Can we please talk about that after you publish one,
Writer Jin?
Please?
Goodness. What's the point of having two kids?
Neither of them understands me.
It's about time you let Ha-kyung be.
Who cares if she's dating someone or is against marriage?
Did she deny it in front of you too?
Deny what?
That she's dating her colleague.
Her colleague?
She's dating her colleague? Who?
You know…
That handsomely tall guy with a pale face.
The very good-looking one.
Handsomely tall and looks like an actor?
Mr. Shin Seok-ho?
Who is that?
The guy who lives above her. They're on the same team.
Come on.
He's neither handsomely tall
nor extremely good-looking.
He's handsome enough.
Keep talking. Who's the guy?
His name is Lee Si-woo.
You know, they were living together until not long ago.
They're secretly dating behind their colleagues' backs,
but she's vehemently denying it in front of me.
Of course, she would.
If not, you'd bombard her with questions.
Such as?
"Who are his parents? What does his father do?"
"Which university did he attend? Grade Eight or Nine?"
"Tell me his birthdate and the time of his birth."
Did she tell you that I asked those questions?
She doesn't have to tell me that.
Everyone knows about the questions you ask.
Don't exaggerate.
Mom, just turn a blind eye to them.
If you interfere,
you'll just ruin what they already have.
Ha-kyung is seeing someone again.
Be satisfied with that, will you?
That's enough. Fine.
I got it.
-Wait. -What?
Where did you sleep again?
At Shin…
-At Ms. Shin's. -But you said Mi-seon earlier.
She and I attended Mi-seon's publication party together.
I already told you this!
Gosh, she's so intuitive.
Why did you leave so early? I was going to make you some coffee.
Are you free later this evening?
Sure.
-Senior Forecaster Um. -Yes?
Here's the temperature change analysis that you wanted yesterday.
-Thanks. I'll check it out. -Okay.
By the way,
how old are your kids again?
The eldest is ten, and the second one is eight.
-Why? -Then you wouldn't know.
What? What do you mean?
You see, Bo-mi's birthday is just around the corner.
But I have no idea what to get her.
I see. What grade is she again?
Seventh grade.
A luxury item.
A luxury item?
Don't be absurd. She's just a student.
You guys are so behind.
It's a trend these days for teenagers to have at least one luxury item.
Even my niece asked her mom to buy her a luxury winter jacket
in return for raising her grades on a mock test.
Seriously?
How much would that cost?
Jeez, I bet a hefty sum.
-Right? -Yes.
That's…
For a middle-schooler?
That's insane.
I've never even touched such an expensive jacket before.
That's…
Soo-jin.
Can you search up migratory anticyclones' courses
in the past decade from late September to mid-October?
Sorry? A decade's worth?
Yes. All of it.
Yes, ma'am.
What should I do?
Just buy her a decent gift.
Luxury goods are too much for students.
And they're extremely expensive.
Do you think so?
Do they really wear those?
ASSISTANT DIRECTOR PARK SUNG-JIN
Soo-jin, have you made up your mind?
Assistant Director Im took a leave of absence?
Why?
Her husband is moving to the US for work, so she'll be away for a few years.
I see.
So we have a vacancy.
Okay.
Speaking of which, didn't you always want to transfer to the Policy Division?
I did.
I even requested a transfer numerous times.
Give it another try.
Knowing our director, you'll be accepted in no time.
-Really? -Yes.
SOO-JIN, HAVE YOU MADE UP YOUR MIND?
Who's analyzing the prognostic chart for the next 24 hours?
It's me, ma'am.
How long will it take?
I'll finish it in an hour.
I need the cut-off low development on Lake Baikal as well.
I'm also looking at it right now.
I'll prepare the prognostic chart as well for your convenience.
It's okay. Just give me what you have.
-It won't take long. -Just give it to me.
Yes, ma'am.
Ignore them.
Assistant Director Kim, can you ask the NWP Team
for the foreign models for the next three months?
Assistant Director Kim.
Why is he so distracted?
When did Director Jin and Forecaster Lee fall in love?
Misery sure loves company.
He was the one Reporter Chae dated before getting married.
Hold on. What is it, then?
-Crossed in love? -Addicted to love.
That's what you talk about?
Sir.
I'm sorry.
I only read the messages.
Ask the NWP Team
for any extra information needed for the next three months.
Yes, sir.
Do you think Deputy Director Han and Reporter Chae know about this?
I'm sure they heard the rumors.
This is why you should never date a colleague.
About the climate projection report for this winter…
We need to add more to the part about La Niña.
I see. Is this because of the statement from NOAA?
That too.
Europe, Japan, and Australia's forecast centers
also predicted La Niña.
I need to send out a news release by 4 p.m.,
so please update it before then.
Is that all?
It seems like there's something else.
I've known Ha-kyung
for quite a long time.
I must have gotten used to her
because I forgot how precious she was to me.
I felt so entitled.
And after some time, I stopped feeling grateful
and forgot how much she meant to me.
What are you trying to say?
At the end of things, she just considered me an asshole.
But you're different.
You'll hurt her much more than I did.
She dumped me.
Do you think the others would think the same?
People don't care about breakups.
They're just curious
about the reason.
At work…
Especially if it's about dating,
women tend to suffer more
than we men do.
People will gossip more about her than you
because of her past with me.
However…
you and I both know
that she deserves better than to be a laughingstock.
-I know. -So…
I know it may sound ridiculous, coming from me.
But I hope you think twice before breaking up with her.
But if you must break up, I hope you'll be courteous.
Don't be an asshole like me.
The chill is moving southward quicker than we expected.
Let's hear what the analysts have to say.
If this is the case, we'll have to inform the Impact Forecast Team.
Let's do that.
A cold wave out of the blue?
What's going on?
The cold continental anticyclone suddenly developed in Siberia
and will impact our weather.
You can see the chill going southward through the satellite photos.
The cold continental anticyclone on Lake Baikal developed quicker
since the North Pacific's anticyclone was in the far east.
This just adds insult to injury.
How is Daegwallyeong?
The morning temperature will be subzero starting with the inland areas
such as Daegwallyeong and Cheorwon.
Assistant Director Shin, what's the forecast for this week?
We've sent out a notice about the temperature dropping
this weekend.
If the temperature drops 10°C or more,
the sensible temperature will be colder.
You're right. This is not good.
At this rate,
all the farmers shipping their goods will suffer.
It's the kimchi season soon, so the radishes on Ganghwa Island
and the cabbages in Gangwon Province will be damaged
as well as the soybeans and chili peppers in North Gyeongsang Province.
Let's keep monitoring
until the final analysis and decide on the cold wave advisory in two days.
And send out an official paper on the cold wave
to the farming organizations.
We'll do our best,
but if you knew that the anticyclone was developing quicker this year,
you should have informed us sooner.
But then again, you must have been too busy going on dates. Jeez.
-Hey. -Yes?
How's your wife doing?
-Good. -That's good.
His wife used to be my subordinate.
That's right.
They had one passionate relationship at work, right?
Jeez. One day, they'd be all over each other.
Another day, they'd ruin the work atmosphere.
You're right. We were all walking
-on eggshells. -That's right.
I'll speak with the Office of Spokesperson and send out that official paper
as soon as possible.
Please understand.
He's going through male menopause.
We'll take care of it.
You didn't have to do that.
They need to know if they did something wrong.
Otherwise, they'll keep talking.
He's right.
Work and personal life should be separate.
He shouldn't have mentioned you guys at work.
I completely agree with you.
Guys.
A cold wave is coming.
Let's get back to work.
I have something to tell you.
To be honest…
Forecaster Lee and I--
I hope you support us.
We'll keep our work and personal life separate.
Right?
Sure.
You guys look nice.
But don't make it too obvious.
Okay, then.
Why did you do that? What's the matter?
Let's keep it a secret for the time being.
-Keep what a secret? -Our breakup.
I don't understand.
It's just too much of a hassle.
They just found out that we were dating.
Imagine if they found out we broke up.
Those who like to talk will be quick to assume.
They will gossip among themselves.
So…
let's keep it a secret for the time being.
Until the dust settles.
Is this because of me?
Are you worried people will think
I got dumped again?
No.
Then? Is it because you feel bad for me?
-No. -Then what is it?
I just don't want to hear them.
They gossip
when they know nothing about you.
I can't stand that.
That's why.
Didn't you know? That's the price of dating a colleague.
People gossip about your relationship
at all times even if you break up or don't.
Despite knowing that,
I chose that path once again.
-I'm sorry. -Don't apologize.
It was my choice.
I chose to love and break up.
So don't be sorry.
It's me who needs to bear with the consequences.
It's unbearable for me.
This breakup…
is too painful for me.
I didn't want to see you in pain
because of this poor breakup.
But…
I didn't expect this to cause you even more pain.
Yu-jin.
This is yours from today on.
What?
Isn't Se-hui in charge of this special article?
She wants less work for the time being because she's pregnant.
No way. She's pregnant?
Being pregnant doesn't entitle her to anything,
but she was so brazen.
That's understandable during early pregnancy.
In that case, she should've just gotten a maternity leave.
That way, I could ask the company for more manpower.
But right now, I can't do anything about it.
Until when am I in charge of this?
Forever.
What?
Consider it yours from today on.
Taking a leave for childbirth and childrearing will mean
she won't be working for a year or two.
Once that happens,
she will lose her edge.
If she can't get on top of her game, it'll be the end of her career.
Come on.
Her career wouldn't come to an end because of that.
What? Do you think I'm lying?
Ask around then.
Countless colleagues of yours gave birth
and lost their jobs.
Consider this your golden opportunity and do well.
You've always wanted your own column.
You do know
that the column is published on the society front page, right?
Right.
I understand.
Okay. Goodbye.
What are you pondering so hard about? You look gorgeous.
It's nothing.
What's wrong? Did something happen?
Actually, I'm in charge of a column now.
Seriously?
You got your own column?
Come on. That's great news.
Hold on.
I'm done for the day once the briefing is over.
How about we have some wine?
I can't drink.
What's wrong? Are you still feeling unwell?
What's wrong? Tell me.
I'm here for you. Okay?
Do you need a new laptop?
Or a handbag? Should we go shopping?
I'm…
pregnant.
What?
I'm 12 weeks pregnant.
Good work, everyone. Let's go home now.
Yes, sir.
All right.
Assistant Director Shin, do you have plans today?
Sorry? Yes, I do.
You're playing a new game, aren't you?
-You're wrong. -Then what is it?
Are you going on a blind date or something?
-No, I'm not. -He denied it.
He denied it.
Hello.
You came in last.
No.
I have a very important appointment today.
Goodness.
You can go down first.
Excuse me.
This is awkward.
It's fine for me.
So how long do we need to keep this up?
Until the others
stop talking about us.
Do we have to do this?
Yes.
I'd like us to.
HAN KI-JUN
CHAE YU-JIN
Welcome.
I thought there would be a traffic jam…
I see. You took the subway to avoid traffic
but you got the exits mixed up.
Where should we go?
Oh, no!
Hold on.
-I'm sorry. Oh, no. -What is this?
-Oh, no. Wait. -My hair.
I'm sorry.
Are you okay?
-That stings. -It must hurt a lot. I'm so sorry.
What?
Oh, no. I'm sorry.
Oh, no. I'm so sorry.
Oh, no.
I'm an idiot, right?
Yes. You are.
I thought long and hard,
but I really didn't know how to react.
I really wasn't prepared for it.
I can't believe him.
The first thing he said was…
Hold on.
But we weren't planning to have a baby.
Aren't you dumbfounded?
What did you expect him to say?
I expected him to at least say, "I'm really happy."
"Is the baby healthy?"
"Congratulations."
He could have said many things.
What? What is it?
You must really love him.
I thought he'd be much more mature.
But he turned out to be a baby once we got married.
He's still a bit immature.
I married him because I thought I could rely on him,
but I was wrong.
I thought he'd be on my side,
but we kept disagreeing.
No relationship is easy.
Even with your parents.
I've never been comfortable
in my relationship with my father.
Parents, children, spouses, siblings…
It's more difficult and exhausting
since they're family.
That's why you become more upset
and hurt.
I'm glad I decided…
to never get married.
Don't you think so?
What's wrong? Are things not working out with Director Jin?
We broke up.
There's still time until the baby is born,
so take your time preparing.
Raising a baby is expensive.
We're barely paying rent and making ends meet.
I'm still not giving you half, so don't bring it up again.
I heard English kindergartens are really pricey.
You even thought of that?
Learning English at a young age is crucial these days.
I can't give up on that.
You're actually happy, right?
To be honest…
I'm worried that I won't be
a good dad.
I'm already struggling to be a good husband.
You'll do well.
You will.
You've always done your best when it came to your responsibilities.
It was just that I was a lousy and fussy perfectionist.
Are you really going to end things with Si-woo?
Hey, Ha-kyung.
You can't maintain a relationship if it's one-sided.
Exactly why does he want to break up?
I'm not sure.
There were many reasons,
but it's obvious.
I'm just not good enough for him.
Hey, don't be ridiculous. You're a terrific woman.
Okay?
You're smart, competent,
responsible, and athletic.
Do you still not know how charming you are?
-You dumped me too. -What?
That was because…
Forget it. That's water under the bridge.
Getting dumped like that twice means
I'm not suited to date anyone.
Come on.
So treat your wife well.
Stop drinking.
Buy some flowers or a gift at the department store before it closes.
Bye.
I was the lousy one.
It wasn't because of you.
You're a good person, Ha-kyung.
Bye.
LEE SI-WOO'S FATHER
Hello?
I was never happy
to be his son.
It wasn't my fault.
But my parents…
blamed me
for being born into this world.
"It's your fault."
"You're the reason why
your mother sacrificed her life."
Then she passed away at an early age due to illness.
My father even blamed her death on me.
"You're the reason why
your mother died early."
How harsh of him.
They shouldn't have had me if they weren't confident.
Parents who give birth
and blame everything on their child…
are the worst.
Hey, Honey.
I'm sorry.
My mom's condition is worse than I thought.
Yes. We're on our way home.
Honey, the bus is here. I'll call you back later.
Sir, please give me a minute.
Let me help.
Okay. Thank you.
-Go ahead. -Thank you.
Don't cry, Se-chan. It's okay.
I'm sorry.
Goodness. My baby.
Taking a leave for childbirth and childrearing will mean
she won't be working for a year or two.
Once that happens,
she will lose her edge.
If she can't get on top of her game, she'll eventually lose her job.
It's okay.
Don't cry.
Hi.
You must be exhausted. Give me that.
What's all this?
I couldn't even congratulate you.
I'm sorry.
I wasn't meaning to do that.
It was just so sudden.
It must have been hard to keep it to yourself.
I'm so thankful
and I love you so much, Yu-jin.
I booked an appointment with my ob-gyn next week.
Really?
What day?
Let me come with you. I'll make time.
I don't think it's right to have a baby
when we're not prepared.
What are you saying?
Let's be frank. You don't want it either.
A baby in our current situation?
It's too much of a burden.
Yu-jin, are you going to…
Let's do that.
Okay?
Happiness…
isn't a given in life.
That's why we broke up.
I could see
that we'd never be happy no matter how hard we tried.
I didn't want her
to carry my burdens.
That's why.
Hello, ma'am.
-I was just passing by. -Where is Ha-kyung?
Sorry?
Where is my daughter?
I'm here to see Mr. Lee Myung-han.
Okay. One minute, please.
Oh, are you his guardian?
Well, yes.
He was in a car accident.
After doing a blood test and a few other checkups,
I found something strange.
-Something strange? -Yes.
LEE SI-WOO
Can you please pick up?
You.
Yes, ma'am.
Let's talk.
Sure.

Amid the clear, fall weather throughout the country,
a sudden cold wave advisory
has been announced.
This sudden freezing weather
could easily alarm our bodies.
At times like this, it's important that you
take care of your immune system.
So when do you think this cold will subside?
As things stand…
We may have to overturn the forecast.
You're going to take the bullet for what Si-woo said?
Say that again!
What are you doing?
Did you already know?
You need a biopsy.
My relationships started with love
but my father was always at the end of them.
Because you'll regret it.
You might regret it later.
I still like you a lot.
Do you know that?
