Why don't I see where Yoon Jae is at?
Sure.
Gosh, Hae Jun.
Sorry about that.
Hurry up and take your seat.
Oh, dear.
- Oh no. - What just happened?
I'm so sorry.
Excuse me.
I'm sorry. Please go ahead and talk amongst yourselves.
- Mom. - We will take care of it.
But...
Keep them company.
Well... Okay.
All right then.
Shall we introduce ourselves first?
Okay.
- All right. - Okay.
- Okay. Let's do that. - All right.
(It's Beautiful Now)
(Episode 32)
Gosh, what do I do?
What are you going to do now?
Gosh, you're just...
Hyun Jae, what do we do?
I do have an extra shirt in my car, but...
Hey, quickly go and grab it.
But it's not quite right for this occasion.
Still, it would be better than wearing nothing underneath.
Hurry.
Maybe wearing nothing underneath would be better.
Just go and bring it.
Whatever.
Go bring it.
- Go. - Okay.
- It's in a paper bag in the trunk. - Okay.
Gosh, this is humiliating.
Why did you do that on such an important day?
- It's unbelievable. - I didn't do it on purpose.
(Room Blue, Mr. Lee Yoon Jae)
How did it go? When are you coming?
I can't deal with the elders all by myself.
What's taking him so long?
What did Hae Jun say?
Isn't it obvious? She wants me to come in.
My gosh.
Hurry up.
Is this right?
Hey!
How am I supposed to wear this?
Yoon Jae has always been a good child since he was little.
He did well at school.
And he was always nice to his younger brothers.
He didn't even fight with them.
Am I right, guys?
Sure. You're right.
We just fought a little.
Grandpa, I witnessed it.
All right.
Hyun Jae, that was because...
you kept insisting that you were right.
So I just pushed you a little. It's not like I hit you.
I see. He's right. He didn't technically hit you.
I totally understand why he did that to Mr. Lee Hyun Jae.
He always insists on one's own way.
He's just like you.
I believe that's why they have become lawyers.
Actually,
we would've supported Hae Jun...
even if she had wanted to stay single.
You see, she won't be able to live a free life...
once she gets married.
What? Is he saying that he doesn't want her to marry my Yoon Jae?
I guess you have a point.
But Yoon Jae will be nice to her so she won't feel that way.
Thank you for saying that.
They will set up their home at Hae Jun's place,
so we didn't have to prepare anything.
What is she saying?
Is she criticizing us because we don't have anything...
to do for this marriage?
She's my one and only sister,
so I wanted to get her everything she wanted for her wedding.
He's just all talk.
Yoon Jae and I...
decided to start our married life with what we have now.
Right.
We will appreciate it if you give us your blessing.
We will take care of the wedding ourselves,
so you don't need to worry.
Then when do you have in mind for their wedding?
(Hanguk University Hospital)
- You're here. - Hey.
Is Mother sleeping?
Yes.
Mi Rae and Jung Hoo booked a restaurant.
They told me to bring you.
But I can't leave her alone before the care worker comes.
Then I'll stay here.
You should go get some fresh air.
Honey, I'm sorry.
For what?
You wanted to tell the truth and start over...
before we got married.
To be honest, I don't know what it's like to grow up without parents.
I thought I would be able to make up for everything.
I thought the same thing.
Once I got married and started a family,
I thought I would be able to forget the absence of my parents.
But that wasn't the case.
When I gave birth to our children and raised them,
I couldn't forgive them even more.
How could one abuse and abandon their own child?
I can't stand that I have the blood of those cruel people.
Why don't you try finding your birth parents now?
If you find them and see what they are like,
you will probably stop torturing yourself with uncertain memories.
There was a time when I thought the same thing.
I, at least, wanted to hear some kind of excuse.
But what difference would it make?
Their excuse wouldn't change anything,
and I'd just be more miserable.
Still, now that Mother found out about it,
I feel much better.
I feel relieved.
In a way, I'm grateful to Jin Ju.
There's nothing to eat.
Where is everyone?
I guess Jin Heon and the kids went to see Soo Jung.
Mom, do you really have to live here?
You have enough money, so it'd be better to live alone.
If you had lived alone,
I would've felt more comfortable staying with you.
I don't want to live alone.
We should live together to get attached to one another.
Why would Jung Hoo and Mi Rae take their mom's side...
when they were attached to you?
They just don't understand how you are feeling.
I mean, she's been deceiving you the whole time.
Think of the time you've spent living together.
But you didn't even manage to win them over.
You don't know what to say, do you?
You can't agree more with what I say.
Will you stop talking?
Mom.
About Soo Jung's mom.
Why do you think she didn't tell people Soo Jung was adopted?
Back in the day, those who were infertile...
were often kicked out.
Some people even had concubines.
I get that she had hard times,
but why did she have to lay the burden upon Soo Jung?
She could've just told the truth and lived on as a foster mother.
Why would she make things so complicated and confusing?
That's why Soo Jung never smiled brightly,
not even once.
Are you taking Soo Jung's side now?
I really liked her and never took it easy on her.
But when I think of how she has deceived me...
with such an innocent face, I get furious.
Mom, that's why you have no one but me to turn to.
What do you have to do with this?
Look what happened to you after caring only about Soo Jung.
You have to count on your own children.
You know I did.
How could you say such a thing to someone who just got betrayed?
But I'm not like Jin Heon or Soo Jung.
But you will go back to Australia.
So? Will you take Soo Jung back?
Are you really going to give your building to Soo Jung?
Do you think I've lost my mind?
This is like a home cooked meal.
You've been really nice to me recently.
You should get some rest when you're not working.
This is no big deal.
And I'm not off today.
I'm having a staff dinner tonight. An employee is resigning.
You should just play along with her. You don't have to be so humble.
He cares a lot about you, Mom.
He even made some soup and a salad for you.
I wouldn't worry if you took care of it.
I do everything because you're busy dating.
I rarely see him these days.
Only when he comes to the hospital.
That's right.
Mi Rae's been spending the night with me...
and switching with me so I can rest.
Did you hear that?
Yes.
If your dad's out and so are you, there won't be anyone at home.
I want Auntie to go back to Australia soon.
Why do you dislike her so much?
I will talk it out with her.
Pretend you don't know.
I can't.
How long will you stay at the hospital?
You're not guilty of anything.
Why should you stay out?
Strictly speaking, it's our home.
If Grandma feels uncomfortable, she should leave.
Where else could she go?
She's family too.
It was wrong of me to deceive her.
Let's eat.
Jung Hoo, have some more meat.
Mi Rae, you too.
Are you going to the restaurant?
Yes.
Thanks for the meal.
I'll treat you any time.
What happened between Mom and Auntie?
Auntie hit Mom.
Where?
On the cheek.
That's unbelievable. How dare she?
I'll get her sent back to Australia.
I need your help.
Okay.
I'm so angry.
What did you and Jung Hoo talk about?
About Auntie.
I want her to go back to Australia.
She will soon.
You're not staying at the hospital because of her, are you?
No.
It's Hyun Jae.
Take it.
My ears are blocked.
No.
Hi, Hyun Jae.
Are you at the hospital?
I'm on my way back.
I had lunch with Mom.
Oh, did you?
Why?
My family met Yoon Jae's family today.
The food here was quite good,
so I was going to buy some for your mother.
- Do you want some? - No.
What about me?
I bought enough for you too.
She has to eat dinner anyway,
so I'll buy her something.
When will you leave the hospital?
I'll be there until the evening.
Okay.
Should I have told him you were listening?
No. He'd have felt awkward, then.
Ba Da, eat all you want.
I'm so pleased that you got full marks in math.
So am I.
Who did you get your math mind from?
I was so surprised.
Did you know all the answers?
I guessed one.
Mom, studying's fun now.
Because I get praised.
Wait. If you're good at math, do you become a doctor?
It would be so nice if she'd be a doctor.
Mom, I'll be a manager like Dad.
That's a high position.
A lawyer is even higher.
Uncle Dentist is marrying a lawyer.
And mom works for Uncle Dentist.
That's not true. No position is higher or lower.
We do different things.
The lawyer your Uncle Dentist is marrying...
is higher up than Uncle Hyun Jae.
You said no one was higher or lower.
You're smart, Ba Da.
I guess that's why you got full marks.
I wonder how the family meeting went.
Isn't that when things usually start to go awry?
What did you want to say to have me stay behind?
Dr. Lee.
He won't provide anything?
We explained we'd take care of that.
We can't ask his parents to chip in when we're over 40.
Then he should bring to the table at least the same amount as you.
Listen. If he were the type where we had to...
give and take exactly the same,
I wouldn't have decided to marry him.
You really...
Marriage is the real deal.
You might not see much else because you're in love,
but life isn't like that.
I'll deal with that matter then.
What about the dowry gifts?
Do we have to exchange those?
You're getting married, and you don't know the basics?
When we got married, I gave you money for a new outfit.
We were planning not to exchange any gifts.
You must do the basics so no one complains later on.
Whatever you say,
when you hit hard times,
it's your own family that will back you up.
If you'd shown me this much interest before,
I'd have felt less lonely.
I have to go. Yoon Jae's waiting.
My gosh...
What?
Did they leave?
What are you wearing?
It looks funny.
Hide me.
Oh, dear...
(Math)
Full marks? Gosh.
At last, someone in our family is getting good grades?
Hang on. Let's think.
Who did she get her smarts from?
It's not me. I think it's So Ra.
I'll make her a doctor like Yoon Jae.
A doctor? I'd like that.
She should marry a lawyer, then.
Like Yoon Jae.
Yoon Jae's fiancee is a lawyer.
Yes, my CEO.
Mom, you need to be careful.
Don't you act like a nagging in-law to my CEO.
We wouldn't dare do that. Not in these times.
We're too distant for that.
You know your place, don't you?
Still, So Ra gave the whole family dowry gifts when she got married.
I expect something in return.
- What? - Goodness...
Mom, solve this.
- Yes. - Can you?
Oh, dear.
I was offended earlier.
Hae Jun's sister-in-law.
She looked down on Yoon Jae...
because he was moving in with Hae Jun.
It's not like that.
It is. Yoon Jae said before...
that he had nothing to show for other than being two years younger.
What did you think?
I have to go to work.
Kyung Ae, don't you think you're being too sensitive?
Can you prepare for a wedding in a month?
Hae Jun said she'd find a wedding hall.
She must know lots of people.
Why won't either of you comment on what I think?
I'm not Yoon Jae's parent.
I don't think it's right for me to get directly involved.
All I can do is stay in the back and offer moral support.
Did you hear what he said?
Why are you acting like an observer at our son's wedding?
It's not like that.
What can I say when a couple in their 40s is getting married?
Considering he's marrying off his sister who's over 40,
isn't he being too overbearing?
Hae Jun's brother and his wife.
We decided to let that go.
I tried to, but they kept aggravating me.
Yoon Jae is two years younger.
A dentist is a good enough job.
Why should he be treated like that?
I'm also bothered she has no mom.
He needs a mother-in-law to look out for him.
Yoon Jae likes her.
They are so haughty because she has an apartment.
Why wouldn't they be? Apartments cost a fortune.
Getting upset will only hurt you in the long run.
Is this how I'm treated for raising a son well?
Even if they say they'll pay for everything,
shouldn't we at least get them new wallpaper?
Do you think they need new furniture?
Why isn't he home yet?
They hang out all the time. Shouldn't he come home...
and talk with us after such an event?
What is it?
Why don't we order in for dinner?
Or we could also go grocery shopping.
Let's head to the market.
How about a barbecue?
Nice.
Do you think we'll be able to book a wedding venue?
I already made a few calls and left my number...
in case somebody canceled.
Someone's calling me. Can you get my phone?
(Mom)
It's your mom. I'll put her on speaker so I can say hi.
Sure.
(Mom)
What took you so long to pick up?
Where are you right now? Are you still with Hae Jun?
Do you really want to marry her...
when her family clearly looks down on you?
- Mom. - What? Get home this instant.
Got it. Can you hang up?
Did my brother look down on you in any way?
Not really.
But my mom could've thought so.
He mentioned the house...
and then about how you could lose your freedom.
Does that upset you too?
Of course not.
Then how do you know how she feels?
She looked straight at me when they said those things.
She must be the sensitive type.
It's nothing to be upset about.
You should drop me off and head home.
Without having dinner?
You should eat at home.
It's fine.
I'll go home after having dinner with you.
He hung up instantly. She must've been next to him.
Is she not letting him take calls at ease?
Mom, I'm off to work.
You're off to work on a Sunday?
The cleaning job.
Are you going to stick to that?
Yes. Why do you ask?
I'm not fond of the idea.
Working outdoors is always exhausting.
I'd rather you work an office job.
Working a desk job doesn't suit me.
It seems impossible to get the boys to do what I want them to.
Is your mom not fond of me?
She is.
She seemed angry on the phone.
What my sister-in-law said could've upset her,
but I'm not the one who said it.
No one said you did.
You're being sensitive too.
Why are you this bothered about what my mom said?
I'm not being sensitive.
This is me reacting reasonably.
You heard her too.
She thinks that my brother looks down on you.
How can I not react to that?
My mom and I exchange jokes all the time,
and I tease her endlessly.
She really didn't mean anything by what she said,
so don't worry about it.
Are you saying that I'm being sensitive...
over meaningless words?
I heard her myself.
The tone in her voice and the words she chose.
Are you angry yourself? It shows in the tone of your voice.
My friends said that it was common to argue...
with your fiance and his family while planning weddings.
I suggested we take care of everything ourselves...
to prevent that.
Who cares about what others think?
We can cross the bridge when we get there,
so why be terrified when nothing has happened?
Did I chop these all right?
- You did. - Right?
Don't be bothered by it.
Darn it.
(Restroom)
My heart skipped a beat earlier.
- Because of whom? - You.
The coffee sure is tasty.
(Restroom)
It's not like you to give cookies as a gift.
I gave them macarons before, so I wanted to change it up.
Besides, it's a good way to promote our baked goods.
I chose the right employee to hire.
It's your last day at Bong Food. Aren't you upset about it?
Working there put food on the table at the lowest point in my life,
so it does have a place in my heart.
I'm going to properly thank my colleagues and my boss.
Then, place one of these in the cookie boxes.
It's the shop's business card.
Especially in the one going to your boss.
Got it.
(Kobongmin Gimbap)
Hi.
You seem like a customer.
I'm still an employee until the end of the day.
I got you something to express my gratitude.
Thank you for everything.
It's your last day here, Yu Na.
We have something for you too. Let's give it to her.
Right.
Ji Chul and I got it together.
You did well.
We were going to wait until after dinner, but...
Gosh, thank you.
Did Mr. Hyun come in today?
Come in.
Mr. Hyun.
- Did you just get to work? - Yes.
I got you some delicious cookies.
I'll be back sometime with even better ones.
Did you make these?
No, these were bought.
Then why did you say you'd be improving the recipe?
This is where I'll be working, you see.
A friend of mine runs the place,
and I chose to work there because I had a feeling...
she'd value my input.
Is that so?
I wasn't sure...
whether or not I should tell you about my new workplace.
Why though? That's upsetting to hear.
Tell me about it.
You've been so nice to me.
That reminds me. I have a gift for you too.
That really isn't necessary.
The guys got me something already.
That's all the more reason for me to give you one.
It's in the car though, so I'll give it to you after dinner.
Don't leave without saying goodbye.
Mom, you should have some fruit.
No, I don't want any.
Mother, there's fun in eating, isn't there?
You ruined everything, you know.
Everything.
It's not my fault I can't have children.
Why won't you say anything when people share their foul opinions?
Why don't you ever say anything?
Mom, why don't you calm down and have some fruit?
Stop it. Why is that?
Okay, you don't have to eat.
Mom, would you like to lie down instead?
Yes.
All right.
Could you...
I thought my parents had a good marriage,
but she must've resented my father deep down.
I should be good to you too...
or you might resent me when you're older.
I'm here. Should I wait in the lounge?
- Mom. - Yes?
Hyun Jae's here, so I'll head to the lounge.
Why don't you ask him to come here?
I'd like to meet him too.
Sure, tell him to come here.
Are you sure?
Of course. The food he bought is for me, isn't it?
You'll trip.
No, I won't.
My mom asked you to come up.
My dad's here too.
Your dad as well?
I'm not prepared to meet him though.
I'll see that I am, then.
Let me see. Can you check?
Mother, would you like some water?
Why don't you ever say anything?
You shouldn't talk to her. She keeps mistaking you for my dad.
Got it.
Mom.
Hyun Jae's here.
Right, come on in.
Hello.
It's a pleasure. I'm Mi Rae's dad.
Hello, Mr. Hyun. I'm Lee Hyun Jae.
Jin Heon,
sit with me.
She must think you're my dad.
This way.
Go ahead.
Hello, ma'am.
Hi, there.
You said you liked my Soo Jung.
How much do you like her?
A lot, ma'am.
Gosh. But that's not enough.
What can you do for my Soo Jung?
That's what she asked me decades ago.
Honey, why don't you ever say anything?
Being barren isn't my fault,
so why won't you defend me?
Mom, he's Jin Heon.
Why won't you answer me?
What can you do for my Soo Jung?
I'll protect her from any kind of danger...
and keep her safe.
It was a pleasure to meet you. I hope to see you often.
Yes, Father.
I'll see Hyun Jae off.
Actually, you should leave with him.
Gosh, that's all right.
No.
I haven't been a good mom to her lately.
She should be living her life,
but I let her get wrapped up in mine.
Don't come by the hospital anymore.
Mom.
I have your dad.
Have fun with Hyun Jae today...
and don't worry about things here.
What my grandma said earlier...
What did she say?
"Being barren isn't my fault."
That.
Oh, that.
She must've been stressed out about not having kids...
before she had your mother.
When I told my mom...
that your father was adopted,
her demeanor shifted.
I thought her actions were unreasonable...
and that she was biased.
It turns out...
that she wasn't.
What I told her dug out the pain...
she had kept buried...
which deeply upset her.
What do you mean by that?
Grandma Mi Young...
raised my mom...
after adopting her.
They all kept it a secret until recently.
The pain and guilt...
my mom must've had to live with...
is unfathomable.
So this is where we'll call it a night.
Thank you for everything, guys.
Come by the store at any time.
We'll see you tomorrow, Mr. Hyun.
Sure, have a good night.
Good night, guys.
I'll get going too.
Sure.
Yu Na.
Yes?
I said I had a parting gift for you.
Right.
Thank you.
Don't you want to know what it is?
I do.
Open it when you get home.
It's so pretty!
(Dream-ville)
That's only because you dive all the way in...
when you put your mind to something.
It's actually a decent attitude.
Next time though, stop midway for an evaluation,
and abort the mission if necessary.
This was a learning moment for you, and
you'll become a better person because of it.
I hope you're well.
I now know what I'm going to do with my life.
I'm home.
You're coming home now?
Yes.
You actually chose...
to have dinner with her today?
I said I had something to say.
Which is what?
Didn't it upset you?
Why would I be upset?
You shouldn't have to marry a woman two years your senior...
while being looked down on.
I can't believe her brother.
And her sister-in-law for that matter.
Anyone will say that she's marrying up,
so how dare they think otherwise.
And to know that your grandfather heard it all as well.
They didn't exactly cross the line.
You're being too sensitive.
I also don't like how both her parents are deceased.
You can tell how a woman is by studying her mother.
But her mother passed away,
so I can't picture what kind of a woman Hae Jun is.
Judging by her brother, she must be feisty too.
How can you know by meeting them once?
Is this because we didn't offer you any financial aid?
There's no need to blow it out of proportion.
You weren't fond of Hae Jun from the beginning...
even though she did nothing wrong.
Besides, we want to prepare for this wedding ourselves.
Does that mean...
your parents don't get a say in anything?
That's not what I mean. But you're being unreasonable.
Hae Jun heard you on the phone earlier.
Do you have any idea how embarrassed I was?
But I didn't know that.
Why are you telling me that now?
There wasn't any time to say anything.
As soon as I answered, you fired away.
Yoon Jae.
How dare you talk to your mother like that?
Honey, we should talk.
Unbelievable.
I can't believe her, you know.
She should've said hello if she knew it was me.
Instead, she kept quiet and listened to me talk.
Honey.
It isn't wise to argue with Yoon Jae when he's about to marry.
He'll soon be leaving the nest.
This is so that I'll miss him less.
He knows that I'll be sad after he moves out.
So he's trying to withdraw his affection so we can grow apart.
He sounds like a good son.
Don't tease me.
This is unfair.
They know what I've been through to raise them.
It's not like he went to dental college all by himself.
He could study thanks to his parents' support.
How could he treat me like that just because of some girl?
Why were you being like that to your mom?
I was feeling upset,
and she got on my nerves, so I couldn't help it.
Actually, what Hae Jun's brother said did bother me a little.
Well...
He's not her parent and still young,
so he probably felt uncomfortable for an occasion like that.
Thank you for being so understanding, Grandpa.
Here.
What is this?
Use it for your wedding.
I've been saving it up for your wedding.
No, it's okay.
Hey, just take it.
Mom.
Hey. Did you just get home?
Are you feeling down?
I'm not feeling good.
Because of Yoon Jae?
I don't know. Everything annoys me.
Where's Dad?
Dad.
Hey.
Did you just get off work?
Yes.
I have something to tell you and Mom,
but she's not in a good mood.
She won't like what I say, so I'll just talk to you.
What is it?
I'm thinking of getting a new job.
What kind of job?
Cleaning.
I did it as a part-time job before, but I want it to be my day job.
If that's what you think, you should do that.
Thank you, Dad.
For telling me that without asking any questions.
You promised you'd take responsibility for your choices.
Grandma Mi Young...
raised my mom after adopting her.
They all kept it a secret until recently.
If you think about it,
losing your parents at the age of eight...
and being raised by a total stranger...
is something I can't wrap my head around.
It scares me.
The meeting with Hae Jun's family caused our family quite a stir.
I wanted to agree with what my wife said,
but I held myself back not to make things worse.
If our family had told each other everything we had inside,
would we have been able to stay as a family until now?
Hello, Hyun Jae.
You should've come with us after the family meeting.
Why?
Your mom was really upset after the meeting.
What was there to be upset about?
She's entitled to feel that way.
I mean, she has a point.
Grandpa and you exercise every morning,
so I was thinking of joining you tomorrow.
I don't think I will have time to see Mom though.
Will you exercise with us before you go to work?
Yes.
I feel bad that I've been inattentive to you and Grandpa.
Gosh. Oh, dear.
Darn, I'm starving.
What should I eat?
Mom, let's eat.
What? Did you cook?
I looked through the fridge...
and cooked something that you might like.
That's right. You can do anything when you set your mind to it.
Let's go.
All right.
What is this?
Have a seat. It's bibimbap.
This reminds me of the old days.
Do you want some beer?
It will taste even better with beer.
My taste has changed, so I don't like it anymore.
Then we will eat out tomorrow.
We just can't eat out every day.
I can't believe we have nothing to eat at home.
Don't Jin Heon and Jung Hoo cook?
They know you like a home-cooked meal,
but they didn't cook anything for you.
I haven't even clapped eyes on them for a while.
I don't understand why they have a maid just for cleaning.
They need someone to cook.
What's the point of having all that money?
Jin Heon has fortune on his side because of Soo Jung's hard work.
That's why his business is doing well.
She worked hard just because she felt guilty.
What kind of daughter-in-law makes sikhye for her mother-in-law?
It's just hypocrisy.
What she's done to me isn't hypocrisy.
Do you think I can't tell whether it's hypocrisy or not?
Why did you let her deceive you when you could tell everything?
I'm home.
It's Jung Hoo.
I need to talk to you.
Hey.
Have you been avoiding me?
- No. - Then what is it?
I haven't seen you at home for a while.
Did your mom tell you to treat me like this?
No. I don't want to see Aunt.
Hey!
You're a rude one, aren't you?
Hey, I get that you take your mom's side.
But you should at least have some manners.
Your mom and I were friends before we became in-laws.
Whether you're my mom's friend or sister-in-law,
I don't want to see someone who hurts my mom's feelings.
Hey, then aren't you going to see me either?
Why would I stop seeing you?
I understand you're mad at Mom.
But I feel bad for her.
I'm home.
Mi Rae is here.
Aunt.
I used to like you.
But I want you to apologize to Mom for your disrespectful behavior.
Hey! Are you guys kidding me?
Mom, now I understand why you keep talking about one's roots.
I can tell how your mom has raised you guys.
Unbelievable.
How could she say such a thing?
What do Mom's roots have to do with this?
Hey.
Aren't you guys getting out of line with your aunt?
And your grandma?
Do you care only about your mom?
Do you not care about how I'm feeling or what I'm going through?
Who do you think is feeling the most upset here?
I'm sorry, Grandma.
But can't you understand my mom a little?
I pity my mom.
You know what she is like.
While she had to keep things from you,
she must've felt devastated.
Was there anyone in this house who understood her feelings?
She is a really nice person.
Everyone is crazy. They all are out of their minds.
Hey.
What are you doing?
I'm going home.
I just can't stay here any longer.
Don't let what the kids say bother you.
I just want to be with my husband and my children.
If they find out what I went through here,
they won't let it slide!
Do you not care about me at all?
If you leave just like this, I will be left alone.
Live alone.
Why would you stay here when you have enough money?
You can't live only with money.
I need some company.
Then you should live with Soo Jung.
You don't even know anything about her roots.
Let her attend to you.
How can you say that?
Why did you hit me?
You are under your daughter-in-law's thumb.
But I'm just easy for you.
Do you know why I moved abroad after I got married?
It's because you're like this.
How could you think of giving her the building over your daughter?
It was a figure of speech.
Did I say I'd give it to her?
Right? That's what it's like, right?
There's no way you'd do something like that.
Not after all you went through to buy the building.
I'm home, Mom.
Are you packing? You're making the right call.
You moron.
You fool.
You idiot.
It's all your fault.
I'm sorry.
About what?
Your things.
I burned them all.
The clothes...
you were wearing when we first met.
The shoes.
Your old traces.
I got rid of them all.
It's okay.
Your birth parents. Find them.
Find them...
and ask them why they did what they did.
Mom.
I got rid of everything, so there's nothing left...
for you to find them with.
I miss my mom.
I miss...
my own mom right now.
Mom...
Your birth parents.
They might be alive.
Find them...
and ask why they abandoned you.
If you know the reason, don't you think...
you might feel a bit better?
I'm sorry.
All I can say...
is that I'm sorry.
Don't cry, Mom.
Mom, don't cry.
If I had given birth to a child,
it wouldn't have been a girl like you.
Don't cry, Mom. Crying will stress you out.
Don't cry.
Mom, stop crying. It will be hard on you.
Don't cry.
What a day.
You came early in the morning to exercise with me.
I missed you.
Grandpa.
I visited you in the evening not long ago.
Oh, yes, you did. I forgot.
Your grandfather keeps forgetting because he loves seeing you.
I'm getting so forgetful.
Don't overdo it.
Grandpa's healthy.
He should be.
The kid who argued with a friend after a few drinks.
How is he?
Yong Jin? Thanks for helping out then.
Until he settles down,
he'll need someone to watch him.
You seem to care for him an extra lot.
He really has no one else.
I know how it feels...
to be abandoned by your parents or to lose them.
I was a unique adoption case.
My parents hadn't abandoned me.
I was the one who lived...
with the guilt of surviving alone.
A person's first connection is with their parents.
If that gets messed up,
your heart and mind get messed up.
Why did you suddenly want to know about that?
Just because.
Did you tell Mi Rae I was adopted?
Yes.
Well done.
Once I retire,
I want to work for an adoption-related group.
I met a good father and had a good upbringing.
I want to return that much to society.
Your grandpa agrees with me.
What would I have to talk about? It went well.
Ms. Sim's brother is grateful, isn't he?
She may be the CEO of a law firm, but she's in her 40s.
How could she nab someone like Yoon Jae?
As if he's grateful.
Ms. Sim's good to you, isn't she?
Not at all. They're not married yet.
She should be good to you before they get married.
If you're not respected now, you won't be respected later.
Who expects their daughter-in-law to respect them these days?
I just want them to live happily.
Something happened at the lunch, right?
No, nothing happened.
What dowry gifts will you get?
Nothing.
Yoon Jae will move into Hae Jun's apartment,
so we won't exchange any gifts.
You won't give Ms. Sim anything?
That might upset her a little.
I'm not upset at all.
I'll do away with as much as possible.
Minus the wedding ceremony.
Did you agree on a date?
The sooner it is, the better.
It'll be the earliest opening I find.
Hotels have a year-long waiting list.
You're picking out a wedding gown when you don't even have a date?
Yes.
Here.
How about this one?
I like it.
But what would I know?
Pick out a few and show me later.
I'd rather pick from them.
Okay.
You'll just leave?
Without seeing Hyun Jae?
As if I would.
As if you would.
(Mother)
- Goodness. - Why?
It's Yoon Jae's mother.
Go. You should go.
- Okay, see you. - Bye.
Hello, Mother.
Shouldn't we meet to discuss preparations for the wedding?
Yes, Mother.
We should meet.
Yes, Mother.
Where shall we meet?
I'll reserve a place and call you back.
We don't have to go somewhere extravagant.
I'll come to where you work.
You're busy.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
This is so hard.
I shouldn't have overheard yesterday's call.
It stuck with me.
She's...
scary.
- Thank you. - Not at all, Sis.
Watch it.
I'll let you two chat.
Thanks.
He's so bright and cheerful.
He wants to act, right?
If Ms. Kim's drama is a hit, she'll let him audition.
So he's super excited.
I hope it's a hit.
Since you're the advisor.
That would be nice.
I exercised with my dad and grandpa this morning.
Whenever you mention your father, I feel closer to him.
He said something today.
A person's first connection is with their parents.
If that gets messed up,
your heart and mind get messed up.
What is it?
To have you in my life at this very moment.
It's nice.
It's reassuring too.
Mom, you seem to be in a good mood today.
I am.
Well, I'm happy that you're happy.
- Gosh. - Mother.
- I see you just ate. - Only a little.
You really didn't have to come.
Still. I stopped by before heading to the office.
Who's been taking care of your mother's meals?
I cooked her kimchi stew this morning.
I'm sure she'll grab lunch with Jin Ju later on.
As if she'd make her anything.
What else can we do?
By the way, aren't you exhausted?
Maybe you should stay at a hotel.
I'll stop by the house later today.
Are you sure about that?
Of course. It's my home, isn't it?
Why wouldn't I be able to head back?
Mom seems stabler now...
and will be bedridden for quite a while.
The house will become a mess the longer I stay here.
Someone must be here.
But the housekeeper doesn't come today.
Maybe Jin Heon's home.
When he should be at the office?
When did you get in?
Not so long ago.
I came home to cook for Mother and the kids.
Who's here?
You surprised me.
I didn't think you'd be able to come back.
Why wouldn't I be able to when this is my home?
This is where my family lives.
I may have let you slap me the other day,
but not today.
Your mother must be feeling better.
This has become a new normal for her, I guess.
My mom never intended to bequeath you her building.
The misunderstanding had me running wild.
Now that's out of the way, I have no hard feelings toward you.
I appreciate your honesty, Jin Ju.
Consider the message delivered.
You're not entitled to anything...
no matter how good you are to my mom,
so don't go out of your way to get on her good side again.
What did she say?
Don't mind her.
Isn't she cooking something for me?
Stop obsessing over meals and snacks!
I'm not obsessing.
Come on. Let's go.
Gosh, Mother.
Mother, I'm sorry. I'm late, aren't I?
Those who live close by are the ones who are usually late.
I had to take a call.
When we first met,
she arrived early to score points with me,
but I guess she thinks she doesn't need to anymore.
Mother, we should order something.
So you heard me on the phone yesterday.
Did Yoon Jae tell you?
How else would I know?
I'm only saying this because you heard me,
but your family upset me.
You can't exactly say that Yoon Jae's marrying up.
Right, of course.
Weren't you the one who liked him first?
That's right.
Also, about your wedding plans.
I know you want to manage it yourselves,
but it's hard for parents to sit back and do nothing.
Let me know if there's anything you need.
I'll think about it and get back to you.
(Director Lee Yoon Jae)
What?
Hey, Hae Jun.
What did you tell your mom?
I didn't tell her anything.
You should've informed me after telling her that...
I heard her on the phone.
I at least could've been prepared that way.
(CEO Sim Hae Jun)
What on earth? Why did she hang up like that?
Honey.
You're home early.
Since you're not home,
I got worried about Mom.
Are you off somewhere?
The hospital, of course.
Dressed this beautifully?
I wanted to lift up my mom's spirits.
I'm the only one she gets to see these days.
Good thinking.
I should get going. Her meal should be served soon.
Sure.
Nurse, please share this with the others.
Gosh, thank you.
Have a good evening, then.
Gosh, you look stunning.
You have just made my day.
Mission accomplished, then.
I dressed up for you to lift your spirits.
Gosh.
You seem out of energy though.
Your mother-in-law. Is she well?
Why won't...
she visit?
She came by the other day.
What?
Gosh.
You must be good...
to your mother-in-law.
All right.
I feel bad...
that we lied.
Would she give you...
a hard time if she found out?
No way. My mother-in-law wouldn't treat me differently.
Besides, don't you think about that.
Your meal is here.
You should grab a bite to eat as well.
- Sure. Please enjoy. - Thank you.
Mom, let's eat.
No, I don't want to.
You were feeling better when I left earlier,
so why are you in a bad mood again?
I'm...
exhausted.
I'd rather die.
Mom.
Mom, please don't think that way.
I know things are hard,
but you must adapt to this situation.
Once you do, you'll feel better.
At least take one bite.
No, I don't want it.
Here.
Mom, don't eat if you don't want to. Spit it out.
Can you have more?
Water.
Sure, I'll get you some water.
Here you go.
Mom?
Mom, slow down.
Swallow small amounts at a time.
- I'm good now. - Are you all right?
Yes.
You've had enough.
Would you rather lie down?
All right.
Mom, what's wrong?
Mom, does it hurt?
Where does it hurt?
Mom, why won't you say anything?
Doctor.
Mom, please. My gosh.
Doctor!
What's wrong with her, doctor?
- Please help her! - Ma'am, please make room.
My gosh, Mom!
Ma'am?
- What's going on? - Ma'am?
What's wrong with her?
(It's Beautiful Now)
What happened to her?
It seems like food entered her lungs.
Who's Hyun Jung Hoo? Is he an admirer?
I've come to know a nice bakery that has the best macarons.
- Tell me. - Hold on.
I'm Hyun Mi Rae.
Come in.
Hi.
How about we have dinner with...
- my future brothers-in-law? - Brothers-in-law?
My sister-in-law!
Why does that have you startled?
By the way, when will you and Hyun Jae marry?
I've been meaning to ask,
but I waited until you spoke to me first.
I think I had a conception dream.
Do you have any news you wish to share?
Is there anyone in the family that could be pregnant?
(Examination Room 1)
You never know.
