(SOS Crisis Hotline)
They are the reason...
I can't forgive myself.
Why did I do such a thing?
Anyway,
I'm grateful.
Thank you for listening to me.
What...
Please come down from there.
Sir, you can't do this. You must live.
You must keep living.
I'm going to live. I wasn't going to jump.
Wait. Hold on. That hurts, okay?
We hear you, so please calm down for now.
Stay still.
Let's all take a breath.
Inhale and exhale.
You must not do this no matter how hard life is.
I wasn't going to jump. I mean it.
Are you sure?
I only called the hotline to get a few things off my chest.
Still, we need to take you to the precinct.
Why?
Like I said, I wasn't going to jump.
A family member must take you home though.
Shall we?
But... I wasn't going to jump.
- We'll talk at the precinct. - Hold on.
- It's all right. - I wasn't going to jump.
Life is a battle, isn't it?
- I wasn't going to jump! - Yes, we get it.
- We only want to talk. - But...
It's all right, sir. You're not being arrested.
(It's Beautiful Now)
(Episode 26)
Gosh, I love the color. It screams passion, doesn't it?
Is that so?
Try it on.
But I'll have to take this off.
Just wear it over that.
Anyway, what was your impression of her?
She's on the older side, but she seemed innocent enough.
Also, she's a lawyer.
A lawyer?
She's Hyun Jae's boss.
What?
Don't tell Kyung Ae yet.
They ran into each other once,
and Kyung Ae isn't a fan.
If she's the head of a law firm,
she must be on the older side.
Yes, that bothers me a little.
She's older than Yoon Jae.
But he still likes her?
He seems to be head over heels for her.
Why else would he have introduced me to her?
Goodness.
So, what do you think?
You look great.
You should wear that when you go to yoga.
I like the bright color.
Where did your dad go with Yoon Jae today?
Didn't you ask him?
I did, but he wouldn't give me a straight answer.
He probably doesn't want to tell you.
Why is that the case?
I've been in doubt lately.
Why am I being treated this way after all I did for my children?
You know how the boys are.
We're not really their priority.
Don't be too upset about it.
I met with Yu Na today.
I see you couldn't help yourself.
I became weak when I met her.
I guess she's grown on me.
I said she put me off,
but when I saw her face, I had a soft spot for her.
I know you can't be hard-hearted.
But I still don't want Yu Na to see Soo Jae.
She has to give up on him so he can end the whole thing.
Soo Jae can't break up with her because he feels guilty.
Who is calling you at this late hour?
I don't know.
Hello?
Are you Lee Soo Jae's father?
Yes, this is he.
The police station?
Yes. I'll be right there. Okay.
What was that? What's the matter?
Is Soo Jae at the police station? Why?
(Police)
Excuse me. I'm here to meet Lee Soo Jae.
Oh, I see. He's over there.
Gosh, Soo Jae. Why did you do that?
Why did you do such a thing? How would I live without you?
No, Mom. It's not like that.
I'm not dying. I wasn't trying to kill myself.
That's enough. Stop it.
- Dad. - Hey.
- What? - You guys are here too.
I was with him. I had to come.
Being scammed out of money isn't a reason to do such a thing!
I wasn't going to jump.
- I wasn't trying to kill myself. - My goodness.
Dad. I didn't do anything.
Then why did you end up here?
It's just that there was a mix-up.
Don't you guys know that?
I just saw the phone and made a call.
I just needed someone to talk to. All I did was make a call.
Hey, do the police show up just because he made a call?
That's not enough to make the police move.
You must've said something serious.
You can say you want to die when you go through a hard time.
Why would you say such a thing, you fool?
- That's enough. - I wasn't going to kill myself.
They are trying to work here.
- Please excuse us. - I'm sorry.
- You silly thing. - Let's go.
- Go. - Come on out.
Hey, get up. Let's go, Mom.
- What... - Just get up, you punk.
Soo Jae, come home with me.
Okay. Will you stop that?
Before we go, we should probably get him some tofu.
You should eat it.
- Honey, let's go eat some tofu. - Mom.
Dad is alone at home. We can't go to eat ourselves.
Buy some tofu. He can eat it when he gets home.
Why would he eat tofu?
That's my point.
Just keep quiet.
- All right. Let's just go home. - Okay. Let's go.
Just go. Come with us.
Why are you being like this to your younger brother? Stop it.
My goodness.
It's so cramped.
Just hold him tight so he can't get away from you.
Mom, where would I go when we're in the car? Darn it!
I just don't know where you will bounce off to.
Dad. Yoon Jae. Will you say something to Mom?
Hey, that's just how much she can believe you. What can I say?
You guys shouldn't say anything.
What did you say to your younger brother to make him a loose canon?
Gosh, Mom. That's just ridiculous.
- We don't deserve to hear that. - I know.
It's not their fault.
At least you know.
- Gosh, just leave me alone. - You stay still.
- It's cramped. Don't move. - It hurts.
Let's just go quietly.
Guys, keep it down!
You're the loudest one here.
Okay.
Gosh.
(Father)
It's Father.
Father, it's me.
How did it go? Why aren't you coming home?
It's no big deal. We are on our way home now.
Okay.
Mom, does Grandpa know?
He knows that we went to the police station.
We couldn't hide it.
Come here.
Look what you've done, you brat.
Why did you hit me?
You deserve it.
I said I wasn't going to kill myself.
You deserve to be well licked.
- You brat. - Will you stop moving?
It's so cramped in here.
I can't believe those punks.
(Women's fashion)
- Hello, Hae Jun. - I ruined everything today.
Are you going out again?
I'm going over to Hae Jun's.
I mean, Ms. Sim.
Why do you visit her place so often?
It's late.
Hae Jun's boyfriend is...
Hyun Jae's older brother.
What? How is that possible?
So we have a lot to talk about.
Like what?
Hae Jun met Hyun Jae's grandfather today.
His grandfather?
I guess they want to get married.
I think Hae Jun does.
I think her boyfriend feels the same way.
That's why he introduced his grandfather.
Is she in her 40s now?
Yes. She's 42.
Hyun Jae's brother is two years younger than her.
He's not that young either.
How did they meet?
Hae Jun liked him first.
She went to his dental clinic with Hyun Jae.
She went through a lot at first.
Just like you did.
I guess that's why you two have a lot in common.
That's right. So we really hit it off.
Still, don't be on so close terms with her.
What if they break up? It will be uncomfortable.
Okay.
- I'll see you later. - Okay.
Hey.
- What are you doing? - I'm about to go to bed.
Already?
I want to go to bed early. Why?
I miss you, Mom.
You're just saying that. You don't even call me often.
I was going to visit you and see your face.
I'm going to Korea.
When?
Did you tell Soo Jung?
I'm just telling you first.
Okay.
What are you reading now?
- I'm just reading this and that. - Soo Jung.
Yes, Mother.
Jin Ju is coming next week.
- You must be thrilled. - I am.
I haven't seen her for over a year.
- Is she coming by herself? - Yes.
She raised three children, but one lives far away,
and one lives under the same sky,
but they don't get to meet.
What's the point of raising children?
It's just pointless.
- My goodness. - Stay quiet and go to your rooms.
Your grandpa might be asleep.
Dad, that looks so uncomfortable.
Dad. Wake up, Dad.
You're home.
What happened to Soo Jae?
Grandpa, I'm here.
Oh, dear.
I'm too old for this.
I was really shocked.
Why did you go to the police station?
I made the wrong phone call.
- It's no big deal. - It's nothing, Dad.
- What? - When I got there in shock...
By the way, what are you guys doing here?
Soo Jae was staying with us.
Oh, is that it?
Dad, you should go to bed now.
Soo Jae.
The most important thing in the world is just living your life.
You don't have to struggle to chase after fortune and glory.
There still are people who can't live in splendor.
Okay.
So you made a mistake. But there's always next time.
You can do better next time, can't you?
Yes, Grandpa.
All right. It's okay.
- I'll go to my room then. - Okay.
- Gosh, Dad. - I'm fine.
I was really surprised earlier.
I'm too old to deal with things like this.
- Dad, let's just go. - Okay. All right.
Dad, have a good sleep.
Don't be so harsh on him.
- I won't. - All right.
Eat.
My goodness.
Do I really have to eat this?
Consider it a ceremony and eat it.
With a determined resolve that you won't do such a thing again.
Will you hurry? I have to work tomorrow.
You're such a nuisance.
Will you stop it?
Grandpa's asleep. That's enough.
It's done.
Well done, Soo Jae. I'm proud of you.
Can we disperse now?
Yes. You're all dismissed.
What'll you do?
Will you sleep in my room?
I'll take a taxi home.
Stay the night.
I'd rather sleep at home after a shower.
Is this not home?
It's no longer my home.
It's my family's home.
Eat it all.
Open up.
Meeting his family is seriously...
nerve-wracking.
I know it now.
Don't worry too much.
I bet you left a good impression.
I want to believe so.
But the more I think, the less it's likely.
It was a mess from the start.
I was a little late.
When I got to the restaurant,
Yoon Jae and his grandfather were there.
Still, you went into the restaurant together.
You can't say you were late.
Why did my hands shake so badly?
He must think I have some condition.
He'd have thought you were naive.
I'm telling you all this because that's what I want to hear.
I'll listen to anything whenever you want.
I wonder if Yoon Jae's home.
He said he'd go to Hyun Jae's to talk to the youngest brother.
You should call him.
- Isn't it Hyun Jae? - It is.
What were you doing?
I wanted to ask you first.
I'm resting a bit after returning from my parents'.
What were you doing?
I'm at Hae Jun's.
Why were you at your parents'?
It's a long story. I'll tell you later.
What are you doing at Hae Jun's?
Chatting and having fun.
Ask Hyun Jae if his grandfather mentioned me.
- Hae Jun... - I heard.
Grandma didn't say anything about that.
Call me when you get home.
Don't stay too late.
Okay.
Bye.
He didn't mention me, did he?
I knew it.
Meeting me...
wasn't that important to him.
You're home already?
You told me not to stay too late.
So I left soon after.
Are you pleased?
Yes.
I'm in bed, ready to sleep.
You visit Hae Jun often these days.
I think we got closer since I started seeing you.
Hae Jun likes your brother a lot.
My brother likes her a lot too.
As far as I know,
Yoon Jae has never introduced anyone to Grandpa.
I want to introduce you to my grandma now.
She never met anyone I dated either.
Doesn't she live with you right now?
My mom's mom. She's in a care home.
I feel bad that I don't visit often.
She adored me.
I should meet her soon, then.
The reason Yoon Jae introduced Hae Jun to Grandpa...
was because he was feeling down because the youngest was in trouble.
He wanted to cheer him up.
I bet your grandma will love me.
I'd love it.
It'll be the first time I meet your boyfriend.
Are you that pleased?
Of course, I am.
I can't wait to find out what he's like.
Visit me soon!
I will.
You're still up?
I was too hungry to sleep.
Didn't you eat at Ms. Sim's?
No. She just talked and then I left.
Hyun Jae told me not to stay out too late.
Goodness.
It's good to listen to advice like that.
Mom. I'm thinking of taking him to see your mom.
Why?
I want her to meet him,
and he said yes.
Isn't that a bit much when you're not engaged?
We're not engaged,
but we could be.
Or you might not be.
I know you're dating, but let's have some boundaries.
- Call it off. - I can't.
I already said I'd like to take him.
Even so.
You can say you changed your mind.
Why would I lie when I haven't changed my mind?
We used to get along so well.
Why don't we anymore?
I think you've changed.
What's that?
Change your bedding.
I'll wash these.
I'm sorry.
Forget all about it and the people involved.
Chang Yeol and Yu Na too.
Don't waste time trying to find Chang Yeol.
You might as well just sue him.
Yu Na's innocent.
Do you think me, your dad, or Grandpa can accept her now?
It was all me.
It takes two to tango.
You couldn't have done this without her.
Mom.
I messed up bad, so I'll let you say whatever you want.
But don't speak ill of Yu Na.
She's a hundred times better...
than your son.
Sleep well. And think only of tomorrow.
I'm so disappointed.
Even if you are, don't let it show.
Kids are useless.
He talks right back at me whenever I mention Yu Na.
- Did you tell him you met her? - No.
I'm afraid he'll leave home again if I do.
I'm so angry.
I'm angry that I'm a mom.
He's the one who caused trouble,
and I'm the one who has to put up with it.
Yu Na and Soo Jae...
spent a lot of time together that we don't know or understand.
He spent more time with me as my son.
I'm sorry.
If you stay around Soo Jae,
I'll have to keep seeing you.
I don't think I can do that.
I don't want to...
see you ever again.
(Mom)
Hi, Mom.
Are you okay?
No, nothing's up. Why?
It's fine, then.
You were in my dream last night,
and you kept crying without saying a word.
Don't you get any days off?
Why don't you ever visit?
Because I'm worried I'd get tempted to stay.
Whether you're here or there,
you barely have time to bake anyway.
I'm going to make time...
and take the exam again.
It'd be nice to have you work at the diner with me.
It may seem that way right now, but I'll be right in the long run.
Do what you want then.
Don't skip your meals and take care of yourself.
Got it. You too.
It's been a while.
Right.
What brings you by?
You said I should call once I sorted myself out.
Have you?
I'm getting there.
You have some time before you have to be at work, right?
Yes.
Let's take a walk.
I went back to my parents' yesterday.
Yesterday?
So you lied to me about where you've been staying?
I didn't want to worry you.
Where were you staying?
Hyun Jae's.
I've learned my lesson.
For about 2 to 3 years,
I'll be busy paying back my debt.
It may even take longer than that.
I'm sure you'll be able to.
The grace you've shown me.
I'm grateful for it.
You're the reason I'm able to stand on my feet.
That being said,
if it's okay with you,
I'd like for us to stay together.
If anything ever happens to you,
I'll be there by your side.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Are you still mad that I wanted to break up?
I'm glad you're back home again.
Well, I should get to work.
Right. I'll pick you up later.
Grandma, I'm heading out early.
Goodness. You're looking dandy today.
Is it a special day?
You look better than ever.
He's going on a blind date today.
Is that so?
Date as many women as you can.
It's good for men to marry as early as possible.
Your grandma's right, you know.
Then I'm sorry to report that I canceled.
You canceled the blind date?
It seemed bothersome.
I went on one recently, remember?
Then why are you dressed this well?
Self-satisfaction.
Mom, I'll get going.
- Sure. Have a good day. - Got it.
When will Mi Rae head out?
When she's ready, I guess.
Did she and Mi Rae get into a fight again?
No.
Daughters who argue a lot with their mothers...
tend to marry early.
- Really? - Yes.
It was the same for Jin Ju and me.
We argued all the time and that led to her marrying early.
The daughters are trying to put some distance...
between them and their mothers.
I see.
Yoon Jae, are you still home?
I'm in here.
What's that? This t-shirt looks new.
It's what Hae Jun got me yesterday.
I wanted to show you.
I should take it off before your mother sees it.
Just keep it on.
Tell her I got it for you.
It suits you well. It adds a glow to your face.
She seems to have a good eye for things.
I'm picky when it comes to clothes, but this I like.
She'd be thrilled.
- Grandpa. - Yes?
What was your impression of her?
She's just like how she seemed on TV.
Bold, well-spoken, and polite.
Do you like her?
Of course, I do.
If you're fond of her, so am I.
- Good morning. - Good morning, Dr. Lee.
The meeting has been set up. We'll see you in ten minutes.
- Got it. - Good.
By the way, Ms. Lee...
Yes?
Is there a fun physical activity one can do?
There is a lot you can do. Are you asking for yourself?
No, it's for a friend. I thought I could make recommendations.
I see.
Riding a bike, dancing at a club,
roller skating,
indoor baseball, and...
Got it. Thank you.
Doing this on a date though might end with someone breaking a bone!
We've tried all of that.
(Director Lee Yoon Jae)
So what's left are roller skating and indoor baseball.
I wonder what'll excite Hae Jun.
(CEO Sim Hae Jun)
Seriously. Why hasn't he called ever since we parted ways...
after meeting his grandfather?
How dense can he be?
On the other hand, Hyun Jae calls frequently.
Darn it. Why are the pages stuck?
(Dolt)
He's wearing it.
(Dolt)
Hey. I just saw the photo.
Doesn't he look good? Thanks for the gift.
He's been laughing ever since he got back from lunch.
It lifted his spirits.
Really? Does that mean he thinks fondly of me?
He had a great time.
I had a great time as well.
Anyway, would you like to go roller skating sometime?
That's out of the blue.
Don't you enjoy physical activities?
Did you look up something that I might enjoy?
Yes, it's constantly been on my mind.
I was upset for no reason, then.
When should we go roller skating?
Let's go on your day off.
But it doesn't overlap with your day off.
I'm the head of this law firm.
It's up to me how I utilize my time.
- I'm headed to HQ today. - Sure thing.
You know,
I thought he'd be arrogant being the boss' son and all,
but that's not the case.
I guess.
I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.
I shouldn't have assumed that you were flirting with him.
Thank you. I appreciate the belated apology.
- I'd like to pay my bill. - Just a second.
- Are you just getting in? - Yes.
Do you have the files of our new proprietors this month?
Yes. I'll hand them over after reviewing them.
Darn, I left them at the store.
Yes, this is Bong Food.
Yu Na, this is Hyun Jung Hoo.
Is there a white document envelope there?
Yes, it's here.
I'm sorry to ask, but could you bring it to HQ?
I'm in desperate need of it.
I get off work in 30 minutes, so I'll be right there.
Thanks. Please call me when you arrive at the lobby.
Sure.
Don't pick me up today. I have to be at HQ.
I'm sorry about this.
It's fine.
Would you like to have dinner?
It's all right.
But then I'll feel bad.
Don't be. You've been more than generous.
By the way, did you make it to the dessert cafe?
- Not yet. - Don't waste your time.
It carries a lot of delicious desserts.
Sure. I'll get going, then.
Hey.
I can't believe you made me call first.
I'm sorry.
I know from your social media account...
that you've been well.
You've been busy with the opening of your bakery.
I'm glad to know that you still care.
Did you find a job at a bakery?
No. I didn't pass the exam,
so I got a job elsewhere.
So you're done trying to be a patissier?
Of course not.
Then get back to studying as soon as you can.
Don't waste any time.
Thanks for the advice.
Please let me know when you open your bakery.
I'll be there.
I don't want to break up with you.
We started the whole thing together,
so I want us to get over it together.
If it's okay with you,
I'd like for us to stay together.
If anything ever happens to you,
I'll be there by your side.
Does being by each other's side actually make everything better?
You don't have to watch over me. I'll be home early.
We'll go home together. I'll wait.
Seriously. Don't you trust me at all?
How could I possibly trust you right now?
After everything you've done?
I know I was wrong.
You're only making me pity myself.
Will you be home right after work?
I will.
Okay, head back inside then.
You head home first.
All right.
(Director Lee Yoon Jae)
Come in.
Dr. Lee.
You should hurry on home.
Sure. Can I ask you something first?
I'm kind of desperate.
Sure.
I'll try to give you my honest answer.
Please don't be upset though.
Sung Soo's on his way over,
and I'm going to put my foot down today.
Regarding what? You have me intrigued.
We have a wager going.
If you and Ms. Sim are dating,
Sung Soo will have to give me 100 dollars.
Is that so?
You're dating, right?
A patient of ours who is a lawyer...
and also receives root canal work. That's Ms. Sim.
You and Sung Soo.
Must you go this far when it's just 100 dollars?
Your money is his money, and his money is yours.
Can't you just call it even?
You'll learn once you marry,
but you can't live with someone...
who doesn't share your financial values.
We don't share our bank accounts.
Our money is kept separate,
and we contribute a certain amount to run our family together.
Let me tell you about Sung Soo.
Even though he earns next to nothing,
he still won't stop snacking on fish cakes.
Shouldn't you let him have a few fish cakes?
From what I hear, he works two jobs.
I paid half of our rent when we first got married,
but we're still renting a unit from our relatives.
How can he even stomach those fish cakes?
Could you be pressuring him financially...
just because he's the man of the house?
Try saying that to Ms. Sim. She'd love it.
I married young, you know.
Any woman would hate a man...
who isn't financially stable at the age of 40.
He knows you're dating,
but he makes excuses so that he doesn't have to pay up.
Watching him be this way annoys me to death.
It's why I need your confirmation.
Just a second. I need to record this.
Here we go.
"Ah, ah." Mic test, okay.
Dr. Lee,
you're dating Ms. Sim, right?
- No, we're not dating. - What?
I'm heading out now. Please turn the lights off...
when you leave.
Hey, Yoon Jae. Are you leaving?
What on earth?
Yoon Jae just left. Did he say they were dating?
He told me to turn off the lights before leaving.
I want my 100 dollars.
Why?
He said they weren't dating,
so you lost the bet.
Must you be this annoying?
Sorry.
Should I get the lights?
Hae Jun!
Hey, Yoon Jae.
Did I make you wait?
Not really. But I'm hungry.
Are you? What would you like? We'll go someplace nice.
You really have improved.
I like dining at fancy places.
Here. I'll drive today.
How about this?
(Special Course: 200 dollars)
The meals are on the pricier side.
The mood isn't for free, you know.
Are you sure though?
We can order single dishes. That'd be cheaper.
Don't.
Just enjoy the food without worrying.
Something came up, and my son won't be marrying soon.
I'd like to put the unit back on the market.
Right. What would the market rate be these days?
I see. Could you find me a new tenant?
No, it's all right.
The current family can move out if they want to.
I can pay back the deposit.
Sure.
The apartment unit is yours again.
I'm home.
He really did come home early.
Aren't you heading out there?
No.
I don't want him to feel smothered or pressured.
He hated that I was at his workplace earlier.
That's wise of you.
By the way, haven't Yoon Jae and Hyun Jae...
been dating for a while now?
Why won't they bring their girlfriends home?
I'm done hoping for them to get married.
Forcing marriage on them...
nearly ruined one of our sons.
Nothing good happens when you force things.
Is that for me to hear?
You're the only one here that I'm talking to.
Yes, it's for you to hear.
Even now, you still choose to tease me.
The boys are just like you when it comes to that.
Kyung Ae,
it's better to just laugh it off.
You and I are too different.
Even after 40 years of marriage, we're too different.
Why can't you understand how I'm feeling right now?
I still don't get it.
Right? It's just 100 dollars.
I would've just given it to her.
Sung Soo's being petty.
Gosh, no. He works hard for his family, you know.
What I don't get...
is how Ms. Lee won't back off from wanting that money.
But I can understand her in a way.
Marriage is a reality. It's different from dating.
Many marriages end due to financial problems.
Really?
Yes. That won't apply to us though.
Mr. Choi got married at a young age, so he might have financial issues.
But we're different. We've worked for a long time.
I'm in debt.
I think this is a good thing about getting married at a later age.
Financial stability.
- I see. - This is delicious.
Gosh, why can't I tell her that I'm not financially stable yet?
It went down again.
Darn it. What am I going to do?
All right.
I told you to stay seated.
I want to watch it. And I'll cook it myself next time.
You don't have to. I can cook.
Then I won't be able to do anything without you.
I want to learn how to cook for my sake.
All right. It's done.
I want to take a picture.
Do you want to post it?
No. I'm just taking pictures to remember the moment.
All right. Let's eat.
Okay.
All right.
Hang on. It's Yoon Jae. You go ahead and eat.
Okay.
Hey, did you buy the stocks that Yu Sung recommended the other day?
- I sold them already. - You did?
I went all-in on this, but it's minus 40 percent now.
If I sell them now, I will lose a lot of money.
I heard the company was seeing a favorable factor.
Just hold them. Do you need money?
No. It's not like I need the money immediately.
But what if I get married or something?
Are you getting married?
Who knows?
Gosh. Put more money in or just sell them.
It's up to you.
You should've told me when you sold the stocks.
I sold them when my landlord raised the key money.
Yoon Jae, I'm with Mi Rae now.
I see. Are you guys having a date at home?
We just like to do things together at home instead of going somewhere.
But we like to go to someplace special.
Good for you. I have to go.
Why aren't you eating?
I want to eat with you.
But it tastes good when it's freshly cooked.
I want to eat with you even if it doesn't taste as good.
- Let's eat together then. - Okay.
Spaghetti aglio e olio is the first dish you made for me here.
You had food on your lips back then.
But you're not like that anymore.
- I'm being careful. - You are?
Do you drink water while eating?
Yes.
I drink water after I'm done.
Here.
I'll go once I'm done eating.
Why?
You don't like it when someone stays at your place for long.
You said you were a loner.
But that doesn't apply to you.
Stay here.
You can't go. I won't let go of this hand.
- Can you eat like that? - I'll try.
- Do you want kimchi? - Yes.
What does your grandmother like?
Well... She likes hydrangea.
I see.
I wonder what she's like.
Your mother is beautiful.
That's what I told you. My mom is nothing like me.
You're prettier than her.
I didn't get to see her smile,
but I bet your smile looks like hers.
My mom does have a beautiful smile.
- And you're prettier than her. - Will you stop that?
So your grandma is in a care home.
Is she ill or something?
She has dementia.
But it's not like she doesn't recognize people.
It might happen if things get worse.
Doesn't it make you uncomfortable?
Not at all. I'm just being motivated.
I may have failed to charm your mom,
but I'll win your grandmother over for sure.
Gosh, I'm supposed to be loved by my in-laws.
Hey.
Do you really have to visit your grandma?
I already made my promise.
Did you tell him...
about her dementia?
I did.
What if she says something strange?
I don't want others to hear that.
Her condition isn't that bad.
That's why I want him to meet her now.
If things get worse, she might not recognize me.
When she recognizes me fine,
I want her to meet my reliable boyfriend.
My gosh.
Did you say "my reliable boyfriend?"
Yes.
She was excited when I told her...
that I'd visit her with my boyfriend.
Mom. Don't overthink it.
You love Grandma so much.
I'm well aware of that.
But sometimes I think you're being too sensitive.
Okay.
You made your promise, so you should go.
It's here.
I'm really nervous.
Do you feel nervous?
It's better than when I went to meet your mom.
Let me see.
Yes.
- Grandma. - Hey, Mi Rae. It's been a while.
- I've missed you. - Me too.
This is my boyfriend.
Hello. I'm Lee Hyun Jae.
How did you know I liked hydrangea?
I told him. Do you like it?
Of course, I do.
- It's nice to meet you. - I've always wanted to meet you.
Why?
Why would it be?
That's because he likes you, Mi Rae.
That's right.
You two seem to have hit it off.
That's a relief. Then I'll go put the flowers in the vase.
- Okay. - Is that all right?
Of course.
Go ahead.
- All right. Please have a seat. - Okay.
I hear you're a lawyer.
Yes, I am. Please speak casually.
Please take good care of Mi Rae.
I'm worried...
that Mi Rae is too nice and easily trusts others.
Okay. Please don't worry.
Actually, Mi Rae is a big support for me.
Oh, is that so?
Once you get married, you should have a lot of children.
A family with many kids is always happy.
Okay.
Honey.
I'd love to have a son just like you.
Gosh, I'm so sorry. I really am.
Ma'am.
It's all right.
My gosh.
I'm so sorry.
I talked to her nurse again.
Good. Let's go.
Did Grandma say anything to you...
while I was gone?
She didn't say much.
I guess she mistook me for her husband for a while.
Oh, really?
What did she say?
Grandpa and Grandma were really close.
It didn't seem to mean much.
She once mistook me for someone else.
Mi Rae.
I think you should tell your mom.
She's ill and your mom should know what her symptoms are.
She'll be so worried.
Grandma's a sensitive topic.
You should still tell her. So she can be prepared.
About your mom.
Yes?
You said she was an only child, right?
Grandpa and Grandma had Mom seven years into their marriage,
so they treasured her.
Did they just leave?
Yes.
The young man Mi Rae brought over.
He looked like...
your dad when he was young.
Goodness. That's not true. Dad was so handsome.
He was handsome too.
Mom. Are you taking your medication?
Yes, I am.
Mom.
I want you to live a long, healthy life.
I don't have a serious illness. Don't worry.
Okay.
Bye.
Hi, Jin Ju.
You know I'm flying over next week, right?
I know. On your own.
Yes.
The kids are busy with school.
Soo Jung.
What?
I'm coming over for a reason.
- What is it? - I'll tell you in person.
Do you remember the spa we went to last time?
Make me a booking.
Okay, I will.
Let's keep it simple.
I just want Mom to be healthy.
I'll forget about everything else.
You just have to...
- be healthy. - Is that right?
You think it's all fine as long as you're just healthy?
Yes, you just have to be healthy.
Kyung Ae, consider it a lesson learned.
Don't be too upset.
That's what I tell myself, but seeing Soo Jae infuriates me.
You wouldn't be human if it didn't.
Kyung Chul.
You're wearing a new shirt.
You try so hard to wear whatever color I do.
- This? - Yes.
Oh, this?
I was going to ask about that too.
You don't have a care in the world.
Your grandson's causing trouble, and you buy clothes?
Stop it. It was a gift from Yoon Jae.
- What? - Goodness.
He has dreadful dress sense,
but he got you something nice.
Right?
Yoon Jae doesn't have bad dress sense.
He dresses just fine.
Be nice.
Father. When did he buy it for you?
- I'd like to know too. - What? Well...
Is Soo Jae in his room?
I wonder what he's up to.
He'll be fast asleep.
What?
- Will he be asleep? - Yes.
- Do you need a receipt? - No.
Thank you. Come by again.
Goodbye.
Welcome.
Are you surprised?
I came over because I didn't have your number.
Yoon Jae said he saw you here.
Would you like something to eat?
Can I have two gimbap to go?
What time do you get off?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
If we hadn't set up the marriage project,
you wouldn't have had to get hurt.
Soo Jae told me.
He dragged you into it when you were reluctant,
so I came to apologize because you must be struggling.
Father.
All humans make mistakes.
You just have to sort things out well afterward...
and move on.
Soo Jae's serious about you.
I've never seen him this serious about anything.
I welcomed you when we first met,
and I still do.
Whatever choice you make, I'll root for you.
Thank you.
Call me if anything troubles you.
I'll help if I can.
Finish your drink.
(Job search)
I can work Sundays too.
Let's meet this evening. I have something to say.
What about?
They're great skaters.
I think we're the oldest here.
Have you ever been on roller skates?
As a kid. What about you?
In middle school. I was a bad kid.
Wait for me.
You're not that good at skating, but you want to go first?
Do you always have to beat me?
No.
No, don't!
Stop it!
Take your time.
Let's stop over there for a break.
We haven't skated that long.
I'm worried you'd fall.
You hurt your back.
That was because you were heavy.
What?
You take a break. I'll skate another round.
Wait for me!
Yoon Jae! I want to skate too!
Catch up, then.
Are you okay?
Where are you hurt?
I knew this would happen.
Don't talk like it's my fault.
It's true.
Shall we go home?
This is insane.
I think I pulled a muscle.
Oh, no. Does it hurt bad?
Watch your step.
I'm exhausted.
Let's not do anything physical from now on.
It's too much for our age.
Don't blame your age when you're younger than me.
Do you have medicinal patches?
Lots. Let's put them on after resting for a bit.
If you're going to rest, shouldn't you lie in bed?
That is true.
I think that needs a hot towel.
Medicinal patches will do.
Let's go to your room.
What if you hurt yourself?
I've been working out.
Doesn't it feel totally different?
- Here? - Yes, there.
I'll help you now.
No, I can manage.
No. Stretch out your leg.
Shouldn't I bend it?
Bend it, then.
- Is this the spot? - Yes.
There.
There. It stuck on nicely.
You did a good job.
You're good at anything now, Dolt.
I told you I had a huge learning curve.
Are you pleased?
I am.
That's comfortable. You should lie down too.
That reminds me.
I got to learn that...
Hyun Jae invites Mi Rae over for meals.
That's because he's a good cook.
We'll stick to dining out.
Then, why don't we also have at-home dates for the time being?
I'd love that.
This makes me feel like...
we've been living together for some time.
Would it be this way once we marry?
Do you want to get married?
Should we get a beverage?
I'm good. I was going to keep it short anyway.
What did you want to say?
Here. They're the clothes your mom bought me.
Why are you giving me this back?
I don't think I should keep them.
I thought about it,
and you were right, sweetie.
Why are you suddenly calling me that?
You told me the other day...
that you couldn't bring yourself to look me in the eye.
Because of the guilt.
It's the same for me.
I can't see you without feeling guilty either.
Our relationship was based on a lie.
One lie led to another...
and then another.
Our relationship...
is a mixture of truths and lies which are indistinguishable.
It's too complicated.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
I'll do whatever you want.
You can tell me what to do.
But know this.
It's true that it all began with a lie,
but I fell in love with you.
I'm still in love with you.
I really wanted to die.
Now that I think about it,
I would've ended my life had it not been for you.
I'm going to work hard from now on.
I'll pay off my debt...
and make up for the heartache I caused.
Thank you.
I feel like you'll be okay on your own now.
What...
are you saying?
We should break up.
I met with your father today.
He said he would wish me luck, no matter what I chose to do.
Hearing him say that broke my heart even more.
How could I have been so cruel to such nice people?
I'm overwhelmed with guilt every time I think about them.
I tried to deal with the guilt...
because I didn't want to break up with you.
But...
being with you...
only reminds me of what I did wrong.
I'm sorry.
You're sorry and so am I.
Constantly apologizing to one another...
will eventually drive us apart.
I'm too ashamed to ask you to stay.
But Yu Na,
I wish you'd reconsider.
I need to go.
(It's Beautiful Now)
Tell me. What's the matter?
Yu Na wants to break up.
The female employee.
I'm an employee at Bong Food.
- She seemed nice. - Right?
Ms. Sim was taken to the ER.
You said I could win this case!
A client of hers who held a grudge caused a commotion.
Hae Jun!
I appreciate you having feelings for me first.
I'm grateful too.
My heart is on the mend.
I always feel safe when I'm with you.
I haven't seen siblings this affectionate before.
We're not siblings.
I just assumed since you two look alike.
- Do you have a daughter? - Yes.
My hunches are sometimes on the nose.
I felt a special connection.
I now know the true meaning of blood ties.
