I hope...
you don't take what I tell you next the wrong way.
Why would I take you the wrong way?
What does this concern?
Dad,
I'll sort things out on my end.
What?
I'll give my place back to Jung Eun.
What do you mean you'll give her your place?
How would you do that...
when you two have different places?
You can't be her, and she can't be you.
In order for you, Jung Eun, Hyun Jae, and Mi Rae to be happy,
I should remove myself from this family.
But doing so...
won't make me less of a son. Just on paper...
Are you kidding me?
Are you serious right now?
How can I be happy without you in the picture?
How can I be happy without my son by my side?
What about Hyun Jae's marriage?
I'm a parent too.
Hyun Jae, who likes to be neat and tidy,
has been living in a mess of a house.
I haven't seen him like this before.
How can I sit by and do nothing...
while my child suffers?
Are you saying that your son is all that you care about?
You couldn't care less about me.
How could I live without you?
Besides, we could've discussed this first.
Why did you come to this decision alone?
Who could I discuss this with?
You?
All you care about right now is Jung Eun.
Honey.
Honey, what was that?
How could you say that to Father?
What option do we have?
Are we supposed to let Hyun Jae suffer like this?
I'm saying it's not just your call to make.
(It's Beautiful Now)
(Episode 40)
Honey.
How can you be this stupid?
Why do you sacrifice yourself every time?
You could have Hyun Jae break up with her.
They decided to take some time apart anyway.
I just can't see Hyun Jae struggle.
But you can't say things like that to Father.
After Father found Jung Eun,
he is so happy that all he can care about is her.
And it's not like I'm entirely happy about that.
But I understand how he feels.
Since he's your father too,
I also understand...
that you want to count on him and force yourself on him.
I actually like how you go against him.
But this is just not right.
I can't believe your dad said such a thing to me.
There are things that you can say and things you cannot.
I guess that's how frustrated he was.
If he had asked you to make a decision,
you would've felt a lot of pressure. So he was being considerate.
Why would I feel pressure when he's my son?
You must be really disappointed.
Of course, I am.
How could he say that he would leave me?
Do you think that makes sense?
I'm just upset that he actually thought of it.
How could this happen?
Kyung Chul didn't recognize Jung Eun when she was under his nose.
He must've felt terrible and upset.
- By the way, - What?
I find this so strange.
Why didn't Jung Eun's adoptive parents...
try to find her birth parents?
You're right.
I wondered that too, so I asked Kyung Chul.
But he says he doesn't care.
What did Jung Eun's mother-in-law say?
She might know something.
So you liked mandarins as a kid.
You still like it.
I do like mandarins.
Soo Jung.
I just got a call from Kyung Soon.
She's asking how you ended up with your foster parents.
Why would she want to know that?
But why do you think...
your mother didn't take you to the police when you were lost?
The sign my father had left on my arm...
made her think that I was being abused.
And that was what I figured.
I guess your mom had her own reason,
but you know what it's like for parents to lose their child.
She should've tried to find your birth parents...
to see what was really going on.
I guess she couldn't do it because my father had to go to France...
as an exchange professor back then.
Is that so?
Wait, honey.
Well... Do you have any photos or stuff like that...
from when you first met your foster parents?
No.
Wouldn't parents keep stuff like that?
In case their children ask about their past.
I never ask them about my past.
What...
I'm sorry.
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.
She said Soo Jung was abused as a kid.
She didn't want to take her to the police station.
She didn't take her to the police station...
because she thought she had been abused?
That's nonsense.
What are you doing here this late at night?
I was on my way home from our parents',
and I wanted to stop by.
Why did you want to stop by?
Hey, will you clean up this mess?
This is why Dad felt bad for you...
and said such a thing.
What did he say?
I thought you were the only one who was having a hard time,
but apparently, it was a lot worse for Dad.
What about Dad?
He told Grandpa...
that he would sort things out on his end.
And it made Grandpa furious.
I wasn't sure...
if I should tell you this or not.
But this is what we do. We open up.
In order to address a problem,
we need to get a grip on it first.
I just thought it would be better to give you all the information...
so you could work things out.
Thanks.
This isn't just about you.
I'm really worried about Dad.
Look at her. She's working really hard.
Mom and Dad, did you see what I just did?
We did.
You're so good.
But you have to be tall if you want to be a model.
You'll be tall because you take after me.
We don't know that.
Just keep working on your walking...
while figuring out other things you're good at.
After I saw Dad work,
I can't wait to grow up and make some money.
I want to be a lawyer...
and make a lot of money to give it to Dad.
What? A lawyer?
Just hearing that makes me proud.
But I can make money. Why would you worry about it?
Don't worry about money and just focus on what you want to do.
You know I work two jobs.
What else do you do? I want to see that too.
Me too. I wonder what Dad does.
Then do you want to come to my workplace again?
- Yes! - Yes!
Is it you, Yoon Jae?
Ta-da.
- You're here. - Why are you late?
I stopped by Hyun Jae's.
To tell him about Dad.
Something happened to my family.
Go get changed first. Then let's talk.
I almost forgot.
Your brother came to my clinic today.
I gave him a 20-percent discount.
You didn't have to. Don't give him discounts again.
How would I do that to your brother?
I always offer 20-percent family discounts. So it's fine.
I'm not fine with that.
He's so annoying. Since when did he care about me?
Did his wife come over to give us some side dishes today?
Didn't she say that she was disappointed?
Don't worry about my brother's family.
I'm going to visit Mother this weekend.
Why?
She always gives us side dishes. Since we're married,
I want to give her some pocket money.
Are you serious?
I think that would be nice.
That's what my sister-in-law said.
Since she knows a lot of married people,
she might know how mothers-in-law feel.
I must say you are such a fast learner.
I do learn fast.
And so do you, Dolt.
Can I just have tea now? I can change later.
Sure.
So what happened to your parents?
Honey, aren't you going to bed?
I'm going to bed.
Dad, free up some time for me tomorrow.
Who is it from?
- Hyun Jae. - What did he say?
He wants to meet me.
Did something happen again?
I don't think so.
I hope not.
I just hope the whole thing will end soon.
I'll come to your office after work.
Father. Do you need something?
Is Min Ho not up yet?
Will he not exercise with me?
He's still asleep. Shall I wake him?
No, I'll go on my own.
Father. Don't take to heart what he said last night.
He was upset, that's all.
Do you also think I care only about Jung Eun?
It's only right and natural that you do right now.
Things just got a little complicated...
and our kids got involved.
Don't think too much of it.
How can I not?
You heard what Min Ho said.
Grandpa. Are you going out to exercise?
Yes, I am.
- Take care. - I will.
- See you later. - See you.
Why isn't Dad going with him?
He's leaving Grandpa to go on his own?
There's a reason for that.
What reason?
What's going on, Mom?
What else do we have going on?
Is it about Hyun Jae?
Why would Dad get upset with Grandpa over that?
He's not upset.
Your dad's just being a little whiny.
He's your grandpa's son.
However old they are, a child is still a child.
Dad hasn't grown up yet?
He hasn't.
Why are you up so early?
I'm going to Gyeonggi Province today.
We're cleaning a building today.
I don't have to wake you now.
I need to wake up to go to work...
if I'm to make money.
I'll cook you some meat. Eat well so you can work.
Grill it without any sauce.
Okay.
Where's Mi Rae?
She left for work early.
She's working really hard nowadays.
It must be bearable for her.
I don't know if it's because it's bearable...
or if she's just trying to bear it.
Whatever it is, she's bearing with it.
I should see things through.
I'm not against her marriage.
But in this situation,
anyone would reach the same conclusion.
I'm the eldest member of this family,
so I will sort it out for you.
What will you do?
Solidify what is already going on.
I feel so bad for Mi Rae.
When you're young,
you think love is everything, but it's not.
When you look back much later,
you'll wonder why you cried so much over it.
Jung Hoo.
You'll get it when you're married.
- Dad. - Yes?
Does it have to be like this?
Mom's dad and Hyun Jae's father aren't related by blood.
Society only accepts so much.
Who cares?
It's not a rule that must be obeyed. It's just what others think.
Don't think like that.
Are you angry?
No.
What was that about?
Mi Rae.
I wonder if it's okay to leave Mi Rae as is.
Are you convinced your father didn't abandon you?
Yes.
If you think about it,
your father had a really tough life.
What if we'd lost Mi Rae or Jung Hoo...
and had heard nothing for 50 years?
I bet you wouldn't have been able to do anything else...
until we had found our kids.
Is Min Ho not having breakfast?
He ate already before going to work.
Why did he leave so early?
He has a meeting to prepare for and some other things to do.
Is he avoiding me?
Goodness, no.
Come in.
Hyun Jae.
You're stressed out, aren't you?
So what?
Don't you have a lot to do?
Hand over a few of the cases that you can.
I can't do that.
I gave you lots of my cases when I got married.
I'll return the favor.
I'm fine. I'll keep all my cases.
I won't stop you, then.
Did you hear...
what your father said?
Yes.
Why did he decide to do that?
Because he loves you lots.
I'm sure he loves his other sons just as much too.
I heard it was the first time he spoke so strongly to his father.
You're a good, filial son too.
You must be feeling dreadful.
I don't feel great.
I'll understand better how he feels when we talk this evening.
Do you really not talk to Mi Rae anymore?
I'm respecting her wishes.
Mi Rae.
What are you doing here?
I dropped by before work.
You're working hard.
Because I have to.
Do you need anything?
Why are you trying to be so nice?
I'm not being nice. Why would I be?
Other people are lining up to do that.
I'm a pitiful fool who's getting pushed away by the woman he likes.
You like Yu Na, don't you?
I do not.
I need something.
What is it?
Macarons from Star Macarons.
I can get those for you at any time.
(Hyun Jae)
You won't take it?
I should go now.
Is it Yu Na?
It's Hyun Jae.
Oh, whatever.
Hello.
How are you doing? Are you okay?
I have no reason not to be.
How is Mi Rae?
Does she eat well?
She's doing great and eats well.
Don't worry.
Okay. That's good to know.
See you.
Bye.
He asked how you were...
and if you were eating well.
Grandma said she'd meet Hyun Jae's grandfather today.
What for?
My guess is that it involves you.
Goodness.
- Hello. - Yes, hello.
It's been a while, Ms. Yoon.
- Please have a seat. - Sure.
I guess I should now call you my son's father-in-law.
Yes, that seems about right.
Thank you for being fond of my daughter.
How can I not be when she's good to me?
I think I told you that once before.
I should've come to see you sooner,
but I've been too focused on clearing the air with Jung Eun.
I asked you out here today to talk about our grandchildren.
I see.
You know how life can take the most unexpected turns.
Look at you and my daughter-in-law for example.
See how our fates are entwined.
People wouldn't believe it if we told them our story.
Of course.
Two people end up married after falling in love,
but they still meet bumpy roads along the way.
Splitting up two people in love...
isn't something I wish to do,
but I guess I'll have to play the villain.
I'll make sure that Mi Rae gives up on this marriage.
I trust that you'll do the same with Hyun Jae.
I met with Mr. Lee today.
He referred to me as his son-in-law's mother.
I guess he's right.
Jin Heon gained a new father-in-law.
Right.
I told Mi Rae to come home early.
Tell Jin Heon to come home early today as well.
Sure.
Did you think you would get away with stealing my money?
Do you know what that money means to me?
That's enough.
Who are you to butt in? Mind your own business.
Please help me.
Chang Yeol?
Soo Jae.
I thought you'd be living the good life with my money.
Look at yourself.
I'm sorry.
How much did you scam from him?
Two thousand dollars.
He beat you to a pulp over 2,000 dollars?
I guess I can kill you since you stole 30,000 from me.
I don't know how this all happened.
Scamming people of their money became a habit for me.
I'll make sure to pay you back.
I was going to once I had the money.
Your parents. How are they doing?
(Law Firm Haejun)
- Dad, you're here. - It looks like everyone went home.
Right. Come on in.
Sure.
I was hoping to grab drinks with you today.
Why did you come by the law firm instead?
Drinks weren't on my mind.
It's better to stay sober during rough times.
Right.
Dad,
why did you say that to Grandpa?
Because you're suffering.
Because you're in pain.
I wouldn't be much of a father if I sat idly by.
I'm also well aware of how much you love Mi Rae.
You're not one to have easily decided on marriage.
Marriage hasn't been a priority for you,
but you were excited...
to marry her.
So I figured...
that removing myself would make everyone happy.
I made the best move...
that I could've made as your father.
I didn't want to force you to break up with someone...
against your will.
Rather than...
forcing you to give up on the person you love,
I chose...
to support you...
in the best way I could.
We told Mi Rae to come home early.
Why isn't she here yet?
I'm sure she'll be home soon.
I'll be in my room.
I don't think I can handle her being disappointed.
No one wants this.
This is something that's inevitable.
Life isn't about only saying nice things.
I'm cleaning up your mess.
Shouldn't you at least be grateful?
- I'm home. - Hey, you're home.
I see you're all out here.
Grandma, what did you want to talk about?
Have a seat first.
Mom, did you have a pleasant day today?
I did.
I met Hyun Jae's grandfather today.
The man who is also your mother's father.
- Right. - I told him...
that you and Hyun Jae...
couldn't get married.
Mr. Lee didn't say anything,
but it seemed like he accepted the idea.
We must be on the same page.
Anyway, just know that...
it has to be this way.
All right.
I'll get going, then. What about you?
I actually have some work left to do.
Right.
It's your mom.
Hey.
Where are you?
At Hyun Jae's office.
Once you're done talking, bring him home with you.
Do you need to see Hyun Jae?
Your father has something to say.
But I don't think I have it in me to see him just yet.
Grandpa, I'm here.
Hey, Hyun Jae.
I'm home, Dad.
I haven't seen you in a while.
We talked last night, didn't we?
But you didn't see me before going to work today.
What did you have to say, and why did you want Hyun Jae here?
I met Mi Rae's grandmother today.
You and Hyun Jae should know...
about her thoughts on the matter.
What did she say?
She wants...
to call off the wedding.
What did you say to that?
I couldn't say a thing.
You should've said you were going to think about it.
Saying nothing...
would've seemed like an agreement in her mind.
I wasn't expecting it which is why I froze on the spot.
What has gotten into you?
I let what you said to me slide yesterday,
so what is with the attitude?
Is it because...
you only care about your son...
and couldn't care less about my feelings?
Grandpa, it's not like that.
He's just upset to see me like this.
It's not because he doesn't care about you.
You should've seen him yesterday.
He meant what he said last night.
Do you have any idea how crushed I was?
How could you think about not being my son anymore?
It made me rethink why I even bothered to live.
Father,
he only suggested that for the sake of his son.
He was only venting his frustration out on you.
Who else do we have at this age, Father?
It's not like anyone would let us vent.
Recent events made me realize...
that you're the one he relies on and depends on the most.
Min Ho's the one...
I rely on the most as well.
It's why you are never to say such a thing again.
It's true that I only had eyes for Jung Eun these past few days.
But you saw it yourself.
You saw how she reacted when she first saw me.
I had...
to clear the air with her first.
Of course. I'm sorry, Dad.
I bet you are.
Yes, it was wrong of me.
You're my son,
and our bond is sacred.
Have you had dinner? Can I get you anything?
I'm good.
You shouldn't skip meals.
How's Grandpa?
We'll know once your dad joins us.
You heard your grandpa, right?
You know what was suggested by Mi Rae's grandmother.
Never have I been against your decisions or goals.
I know too well that you would always do as you please.
But this is a different matter.
Mi Rae's grandmother has made up her mind,
and Mi Rae's mother seems to be in agreement.
And Mi Rae's mother is your grandfather's daughter.
Your father...
tried suggesting the impossible...
to give you what you wanted.
(Law Firm Haejun)
She wants...
to call off the wedding.
What did you say to that?
I couldn't say a thing.
Are you closing up alone again?
I'm afraid so.
Saet Byul left early since it was her parent's birthday.
I'll wait while you close up, and then we'll go home separately.
Sounds good.
What on earth?
There's no need to be so jumpy.
But it's scary.
Why did the lights go out?
It must be a blackout.
Although, this has never happened before.
What do we do?
Don't you know?
How do I know?
Should I call emergency services?
There's no need for that.
Sometimes, the power goes out in the entire building.
This could be due to an inspection.
I'm sure power will be back on soon.
Then all we have to do is wait.
Gosh, the fridge!
I can't let what's in there melt.
I'll go outside and check if others are experiencing the same issue.
It's just this store.
The electricity can get cut off if too much of it is consumed.
I just have to switch the circuit breaker back on.
Where is it?
We'll have to look for it.
Maybe I should call Saet Byul.
Let's try to find it first and then call her.
Look at you being proactive.
I thought you were scared a second ago.
My eyes have adjusted to the dark now.
Boo!
What the...
I think it's that over there.
The lights are back on.
Are you that happy about it?
Solving a problem always feels nice.
You can't just go home on a day like this.
I love how Seoul has a river that flows through it.
Have you been here often?
On rare occasions.
I was here with my boyfriend once.
It's empty.
- We should get going then. - I'm not finished yet.
Aren't you being self-centered?
I'm not like this to others,
but I guess I'm being like this when I'm with you.
You must like me.
I told you not to like me.
This is why I was hesitant to hang out with you.
I'm a human being after all. It's only natural that...
I like someone who's nice to me.
Even if it's not romantic feelings.
I guess you're right.
Mr. Hyun, you're a nice person.
It's not wrong that I want to be friends with someone nice.
But if it's between a man and a woman,
some people might think I'm taking advantage of you...
or toying with your emotions.
It's hard.
Everything is so complicated with you.
Can't you just take things easy?
I think it's about time you can.
We can just hang out and have a drink together like this.
I don't want more than that.
You keep pushing me away with all those thoughts,
and that makes things more complicated for us.
Just take it easy.
I think I've done enough to make you listen to me.
How do I take it easy?
We can just talk as we're doing now.
You're not that younger than me, but you keep calling me Mr. Hyun.
You treat me like your elder.
I'm still in my 20s.
Sorry.
Don't be. Let's just talk casually.
Don't treat me like a guy who goes after women.
Okay.
- Dad! - Hey, guys.
So is this where you work?
Yes. You're here for a tour.
You shouldn't make a fuss or run around here, okay?
- Yes. - Yes.
Dad, what do you do here?
Me? This is what I do.
- Let me help you. - Will you?
- Be careful. - I want to help.
Aren't you tired?
I'll be tired if I keep doing this.
- I'm not tired at all. - Me neither.
Ha Neul, Ba Da, and Hae, you guys are so sweet.
Look at you guys. You are the best.
- Let's just hurry and go. - Okay.
I'll hurry.
(Kase Bio)
Eighty...
Aren't you going to bed? What were you doing with my laptop?
I was just checking something.
What did you check? Oh, right.
Is it about your work?
Not really.
Wait.
Let go of it. This is mine.
What...
- Oh, my gosh. - Don't be shocked.
That was just an exclamation.
Am I supposed to be surprised?
Well... The graph is going down.
It just bottomed out, so it will soon be bouncing back.
You sound just like a fraud.
"Bottom out and bounce back."
"This is going to be a jackpot."
Honey, did you invest all your money in Kase Bio?
Not all my money.
The thing is...
Once they succeed in developing a new medicine,
it will hit the jackpot.
I was told it wasn't a good idea to invest in bio stocks.
Honey.
Having only superficial knowledge is the most dangerous thing.
I've studied a lot about the stock market for years.
Fine. It's not like one can lose a whole lot in the stock market.
Let's go to sleep.
Okay. I should go to bed if you want me to.
- All right. - Let's go.
Mi Rae, come out and eat.
Mi Rae.
Are you still asleep?
Aren't you going to work?
I will.
Is she up yet?
You told me to wake her up. What are you doing here?
Let her sleep a little more.
She woke up. I'll go to work then.
Okay.
Mi Rae, you're up.
What are you doing in the blanket?
Hey.
Mi Rae.
I'm fine, Mom.
I should wash up and go to work.
Hey, honey.
How is Mi Rae doing?
Gosh, I don't know what to do.
It's not like I want to oppose her marriage.
We all have no other choice.
By the way, aren't you going to meet your father again?
Why would I meet him?
My only parents are...
Jin Tae Hyun and Jung Mi Young.
Then what about me? I should meet him.
What do you think he would take me for?
If you got along with your birth father,
do you think it would upset your deceased parents?
That didn't even occur to me.
It's just hard...
to see Mi Rae suffer like that.
This is when you have to stay strong.
Mother, I have something to tell you.
What is it?
I should get going now. Does it have to be now?
No. I just need to talk to Mother.
- Okay. You should go then. - All right. See you.
- See you. - Bye.
Mother.
You're against Mi Rae's marriage.
That's because of me and my father, right?
Why else would it be?
Mi Rae says she will break up with him for me,
but I can't let her do that.
It will be all right once you get through this.
You didn't want to be involved with Mr. Lee's family.
I know you cleared up all the misunderstandings,
but it won't be easy for you to take a stranger...
as your parent all of a sudden.
That's not a relationship you would want.
Come to think of it, I just feel bad for Mr. Lee.
Any parent would understand...
how devastated parents would feel if they lost their child.
When I think of Mr. Lee, I just want to let everything slide.
But I can't stop...
thinking of your deceased parents.
They were people of remarkable personalities.
They never got upset, and they were always gentle.
But when you were lost,
why didn't your parents take you to the police?
It keeps coming back.
They had no other choice.
How do you know?
You were only four years old.
You just know what your late foster parents told you.
A long time ago...
It was about three years after you got married.
I went to meet your mother. I wanted to thank her.
And this is what she said back then.
I asked, "How did you get such a sweet daughter like her?"
And she said she stole you from the sky.
What?
She added that you were such a perfect daughter.
But now that I think about it, I don't think that's what she meant.
Could they have deliberately kept you for themselves?
Mother, my parents aren't that kind of people.
Maybe not.
But I just can't think of anything else.
Anyway, Your late foster parents were the ones who took pleasure...
in raising you after all.
("My Father, Professor Jin Tae Hyun")
How do you know?
You were only four years old.
You just know what your late foster parents told you.
You were in here? You slept here?
Yes.
Ms. Sim, Mr. Lee's in his office.
So what?
He didn't go home last night. He slept here.
He did?
I rushed over because I thought you should know.
What's going on?
What do you mean?
Did something happen last night?
No.
Then what's all this?
What's what?
I stayed to work because I was behind.
Is it about your father? Did you talk to him?
He did come by yesterday.
He was here?
Why didn't you tell me?
I should've stayed to say hi.
He came over after work.
I have work to do.
You want me to leave?
Yes.
Okay.
Hyun Jae.
Get a shower.
You smell.
What are you doing here?
Nothing's wrong, is there?
I told you nothing was wrong.
Why won't you believe me?
Because things keep happening.
Let's sit down.
Is Grandfather not home?
He went out for a walk.
Hyun Jae...
He told me he spoke with his father.
Nothing else happened, I hope.
Did he not tell you?
No.
Mi Rae's grandmother wants to call off the wedding.
She met with my father-in-law to tell him so.
Hyun Jae heard the news last night.
Oh, so that's why...
What? Did he say something?
No.
This is for you.
- What's this? - Your allowance.
Thank you for cooking for us.
- Forget it. - Take it, please.
Take it and brag about it to everyone.
That your daughter-in-law gave you money.
You're so good at cheering someone up.
- Kyung Ae. - Hi.
Hello.
What are you doing here, Ms. Sim?
I dropped by to see Mother.
I'll let you chat. I need to go now.
- Go ahead. - Bye.
- See you.
Goodbye.
I can't treat her the way I should and want.
Kyung Ae, can you teach her a lesson?
Remind her who's boss and where she stands.
I myself don't know where that is.
I know where we stand, but not about the next generation.
I'll teach you, then.
What's this?
She gave it to me even though I refused.
Daughters-in-law are not like sons.
She's so sweet considering we're unrelated and I like her more.
Hae Jun.
You're cleaning up and Hyun Jae's making a mess.
You both changed completely.
It's tough, isn't it?
Soo Jung.
Do we have any snacks?
We do.
I'll get you something once I'm done packing Mi Rae's food.
You're going to visit her?
Yes.
She surprised me this time.
She seems to have accepted it readily.
Compared to how elated she was when she was planning the wedding.
Mi Rae definitely takes after you.
She's in control of her emotions.
I'd say she's hiding them.
She thinks showing how she feels hurts other people.
She got that from you.
You need to work it out if she is to be able to.
Why are you both so cautious?
Did Hyun Jae...
call you?
He didn't call me,
but he called my brother.
I guess he chose to do that to respect your wishes...
about not calling each other.
He must want to call so badly.
Right now...
His family is a mess too.
My father-in-law saw how sad Hyun Jae was...
and told his father he would cancel his own adoption.
Hyun Jae is the type to eventually get what he wants,
even if it takes time.
He doesn't give up.
Even more so when it comes to love.
But this time,
he's facing a situation that's out of his control.
He's not holding back and sitting still because...
his love for you is weak or meaningless.
I know that.
That's why I was thinking I should sort it out for him.
Hyun Jae never gives up,
but I'm pretty good at that.
- Mom. - Hello.
Hello.
I brought Mi Rae some food.
I'll leave you two to chat.
No, you can stay.
I just came to drop this off.
I was just about to leave.
Bye, Mi Rae. Oh, dear.
- I'll call you later. - Okay.
- Bye. - Goodbye.
Did I just chase her off?
No.
Your father...
tried suggesting the impossible...
to give you what you wanted.
What?
You're meeting a client in ten minutes.
Where are you?
Serve some tea and stall for five minutes.
Gosh...
What are you wearing?
I can change. Is my client here?
Yes, drinking tea.
He's really such a mess.
A total mess!
He's out of his mind.
What's a mess?
Hello, Ms. Sim.
What is Hyun Jae up to?
Well, he...
Darn. With all the work he has been doing around the clock...
Hey. Hi, Hae Jun.
Ms. Sim must be able to work on her own time.
Or did she come by to actually say something?
Hyun Jae's father seems to be having a hard time...
with what's been going on.
His grandfather has been upset to see his son that way.
It must be hard on you too.
Are you still upset with Hyun Jae's grandfather?
I have started to forgive him.
Really?
Yes.
Hearing what he had to say...
helped me understand his situation.
Understanding someone is the key to forgiveness.
That's great.
That's why I'm going to get through this.
As you know, I'm good at giving up on things.
I'm sure I'll be able to get it done once again.
You're lying.
You're masking your feelings...
to prevent hurting other people.
What else can I do?
You mean too much to me,
and the last thing I want is to bring you pain.
You have never brought me any pain.
Do as you wish and don't hide your feelings.
This is me doing what I want,
so don't worry about me.
I want you to be happy, Mom.
What I want is for you to be happy.
I want you to be happy, Mom.
You need to work it out if she is to be able to.
I asked, "How did you get such a sweet daughter like her?"
And she said she stole you from the sky.
They stole me from the sky?
I'm the worst.
I...
wronged you.
I hated it when people said I couldn't have children.
I would've done anything if it meant...
I could have a child.
No way. My mom wouldn't have.
You saw what was on her arm, right?
She was abused!
We can't drop her off at the police station.
Mom, my gosh.
It's all my fault.
I hated being called childless and barren.
Hearing others snicker made me shudder.
People said marrying the wrong woman ruined his life.
And then we met you.
Your father was already set to teach at a university in France.
The timing was perfect.
We could easily tell people...
that you were the daughter I gave birth to.
What...
My gosh. Mom!
Mom?
Yes, Father.
How is Hyun Jae doing?
He says he's doing all right, but I don't quite believe him.
Well,
he has buried himself in his work...
and has been eating and sleeping at the law firm.
I see.
Good night, Father.
Do you not recognize me?
Why are you looking at me like that?
You should've called first. What if I wasn't here?
Hae Jun told me about how you've been doing.
Have you had lunch?
I'm here for you.
So do as you wish, Hyun Jae.
I was going to stay back.
I thought I'd be able to.
I stayed away in order to respect your wishes.
I held back over and over again,
but I can't anymore.
You suggested we take a break.
At this rate though,
we'll never be able to get back together.
We don't have a choice.
How can you be sure?
We haven't even considered our options.
That's because...
this isn't up to us.
As long as we are on the same page, there will always be an option.
What can we do, then?
Move in with me.
(It's Beautiful Now)
I want to spend the rest of my life with Mi Rae.
Is that why...
- you asked me here? - Yes.
I think I had another conception dream.
You said that the last time, but nothing happened.
I know that it's just a silly dream.
Your blood test result shows that you're pregnant.
We can get married now.
I still don't know if this is right.
Drive home safely. I'm so sorry.
He doesn't want to break up with you.
Were you going to end things with him?
That's where I'm headed.
Mi Rae, is it your stomach?
