(It's My Life)
Did you talk to a lady on the first floor earlier?
Well, I don't remember that.
This is her. Her name is Jung Jin Ah.
Who is she? Why are you asking me about her?
She's my friend. A very special friend of mine.
"A very special friend"?
I have to find Jin Ah. Please help me.
Jung Jin Ah?
Yes, she's around 165 cm tall with long straight hair and very pretty.
I saw you talking to her at the elevator.
Don't you remember?
I don't remember.
Please think about it again.
You got into the elevator with her.
Look, Mr. Yang.
Do I have to remember everyone I take the elevator with?
Go to the police if you're trying to find someone.
Why are you taking up a busy person's time?
I'm sorry,
but please think about it carefully one more time.
I really have to meet Jin Ah.
All right. I'll tell you if I remember anything.
Thank you, Director Choi.
You are dismissed.
Yes, thank you for your time.
He has a girl?
And it's Jung Jin Ah?
This is interesting.
Yes, Director Choi.
Bring me the personal details report of the qualifiers.
Nam Jin.
I don't know why I feel sick.
I feel nauseous just like women have morning sicknesses.
I also feel like I have a fever.
My body feels strange.
Nam Jin.
Yes?
What's wrong with you? Did something happen?
- I saw Jin Ah. - Jin Ah?
You must've been mistaken. Why would she be here?
I'm sure it was Jin Ah.
Why didn't you go after her when you saw her?
The elevator Jin Ah got in stopped on the seventh floor.
So I searched everywhere on that floor, but I couldn't find her.
You had so much to think about and didn't get enough sleep.
You probably saw things.
I said it was Jin Ah.
I would never mistake anyone else for her.
Fine. All right.
It seems like you have lost a lot of energy.
Let's go home. I'll tell your mom to make some healthy food for you.
- Mr. Lee! - I get it. It was Jin Ah.
So what do you want me to do?
I already have so much on my plate and feel nauseous.
Why are you acting like this too?
Let's go. Let's go home.
What is wrong with Dae Sik?
Why is he always a roadblock in whatever I do?
- Hello? - Is this Ms. Jung?
It's Choi Si Woo from Hyunkang.
Yes, sir.
I have something to ask you about.
Do you happen to know a man named Yang Nam Jin?
Pardon? Yes, I do.
Why are you asking about him?
He asked me to tell him where you were...
saying he should find you.
Would you mind if I gave him your number?
- No. - Why?
According to your resume, you're from the same town as him.
He's a stalker. You should never tell him where I am.
A stalker?
He said that you were his friend.
A very special friend of his.
It's true that we're from the same town.
But he gave me such a hard time while following me around.
Anyway, I don't want to see him again.
I see.
If it's so hard, why don't you report him to the police?
I don't want to do that.
I can't do that since we grew up in the same town.
I understand. How is your foot?
Try not to move too much and take good care of yourself.
Okay.
A stalker?
So he's a pathetic man who chases after a girl?
He doesn't usually drink that much alone.
Could something have happened?
Someone told me...
that people that share those small things...
along with laughs and tears...
are a family.
Right.
There's nothing I wouldn't do for my son, Si Woo.
- Animal kingdom? - Yes.
He took in abandoned pet dogs in the town,
stray cats, rabbits, chickens,
and even turtles. He raised all of them in our house.
What else would you call it rather than the animal kingdom?
Nam Jin has a very good heart.
That's not all.
Whenever he saw needy people, he gave them his shoes...
and jacket he was wearing.
He once gave our rice cooker to an elderly person who lived alone,
so I had to cook rice in a pot for a few months.
I'm sure he was influenced by you.
Gosh, no.
All I could think of was to make ends meet.
I couldn't think of helping others.
I heard you made kimchi for elderly people who lived alone...
and visited them to keep them company.
Well, I just shared kimchi with them that I made for me and Nam Jin.
What are you two talking about?
It's so good to hear the two of you chatting together.
Is it?
Ms. Yang and I were talking about Nam Jin's childhood.
What? Mom, you didn't speak badly of me, did you?
- She talked badly of you a little. - Pardon?
You got 30 out of 100 points for math in elementary school.
My goodness. Did you tell him things like that too?
You must take after your dad.
Young Gyu hated math so much.
Really?
I thought I might take after Mom.
But she strongly denied it saying she was good at math.
Hey. I told you I was good at math.
Why don't you believe me?
Mom, you know I didn't mean it like that, right?
You don't have to be sorry.
You raised him like your own son.
I believe that's how Nam Jin became who he is now.
Of course. Absolutely.
- You are right. - Father, I'm here.
What brings you here at this hour?
My angel is here.
Your angel?
I want to prepare dinner for you with my own hands.
You'll prepare dinner for me?
Si Woo will join us later.
Let's have dinner together without other people, Father.
You asked me to help you prepare dinner for Chairman Ahn.
But all you do is put packed food on the plates.
I bought these dishes from a very famous restaurant.
Well, you wouldn't know.
Oh, I should light a candle to create a good mood.
I'll light the candle.
You know how to create a good mood as I expected.
Well... Chairman Ahn didn't seem to like greasy food like this.
Don't act like you know him better than I do.
Ms. Heo, please bring Father here.
Yes, Ms. Choi.
- Let's give them some privacy. - Why?
Why would we join them when a family eat together?
What's wrong about that?
- Come with me. - Wait.
I'll see you around.
- I'm Lee Sang Hyun. Lee Sang Hyun. - Gosh.
- Wi-Fi of love - Come on. My goodness.
- Why are you singing? - I think I fell in love with you
- At first sight, Wi-Fi of love - Come on. Stop singing.
My goodness.
Was all you did display the food you bought on the plates?
I didn't just buy the dishes.
I made special orders to some famous chefs.
You even lit a candle too.
Is this a memorial ceremony? Are you praying that I die soon?
Father, that's too harsh.
I have no intention of playing along with your little game.
Father.
Ms. Heo, please...
set the table again with Ms. Yang's pureed soybean stew...
and her side dishes.
Yes, sir.
You're being so mean to me.
Have you ever treated me and Si Woo...
warmly until now?
You never looked at us. You always said harsh things to us.
Do you even know how miserable you made...
me and my son feel?
Your husband died because of you. How dare you raise your voice?
How many times do I have to tell you that?
Si Woo was sick that day.
He was burning with fever and having a hard time breathing.
I was afraid something bad might happen to Si Woo.
I never knew Si Woo's dad would end up like that.
I really didn't know.
Whenever I see you, it always ends like this.
Leave now.
- Let's go, Mom. - Si Woo.
You don't have to do this.
Grandpa would never accept us as his family.
Don't waste your time and energy.
I can't see sincerity from the two of you.
Sincerity? What do you mean by that?
What on earth do you want from us?
The two of you visit me for only two reasons.
To ask me to change Si Woo's family name and to give you my company.
You're mistaken, Father.
Even a pet dog...
knows which person adores it.
I'm over 80 years old.
Do you think I wouldn't know what you're thinking?
Then why did you do that?
You should've left Mom and Dad to love each other.
Then none of this would've happened.
What?
You're putting the blame on us when you were wrong.
Dad died because of you, Grandpa.
How dare you!
No matter how much you hate me,
I'm the heir of Hyunkang.
I'm going to change everything.
I'll show everyone...
that you were wrong.
Let's go.
How could Si Woo say this to me?
Chairman Ahn.
Si Woo.
Were you very upset?
Don't meet Grandpa without me from now on.
You don't have to go see him.
How can I not?
People are watching.
I'm the so-called daughter-in-law.
What if people point fingers...
for not taking care of the sick father-in-law?
I hate seeing you act like you did something wrong...
more than getting fingers pointed at us.
I wasn't acting like I did anything wrong.
I was just playing my part.
Si Woo, your grandpa...
must really be senile.
Senile?
Earlier,
he was smiling and laughing at the caregiver.
Is he showing interest in her?
He said she's the most valuable guest he's ever had.
Really?
I even got weird thoughts.
What thoughts?
Unwelcome guests walking in on a happy family.
That's what I felt like we were.
Mom, you said you're going to court next week. Right?
- Yes. - Don't.
What do you mean?
I'm going to live as Choi Si Woo.
I'll take over Hyunkang as Choi Si Woo,
not Ahn Si Woo.
I'll get rid of any trace of the Ahn family.
Si Woo.
When I take control over the company,
I'll have to change the name of the company first.
What do you think about my idea?
Excuse me.
Who are you? What are you doing in front of my house?
I... I'm...
looking for someone.
You're the man I saw this morning.
Are you still here?
Have you seen this person?
The owner of the supermarket said he thinks she lives here.
Look.
I go to work early in the morning and come home late.
I don't know who lives around here.
Please just take a look.
This is so annoying.
(Searching for Runaway Wife)
What? Isn't this Jin Ah?
Do you know Jin Ah?
Yes.
Yes, Yeon Ji?
Jin Ah, are you a married woman that left your husband?
What?
Are you really not going to eat?
I don't have an appetite.
Please don't act like this and reach out first.
Like you said,
even dogs know which person adore them.
Do you think Director Choi wouldn't know that?
It must be hard for him to deal with the fact...
that his own family hates him when he seems to have everything.
That's why he's going astray.
He probably doesn't feel like that inside.
Do you...
think I was wrong too?
No.
It must have been the right decision back then.
However, Director Choi's mother...
must have greatly resented you.
I think you should understand her.
That evil woman...
was worried I'd take her son and raised him alone for 10 years.
A decade later, she came to me with her son.
That's why he takes after his mother's last name.
Show them how you really feel first.
You don't hate Director Choi, do you?
You're just worried about him.
So tell them the truth and embrace them.
Okay.
Let's try what you said.
Today was the perfect chance.
You saw it all.
She laid out food she bought and made a big deal out of it.
It would've been nice if you just enjoyed the food.
My grandpa is a stubborn man.
Did you just call me your grandpa?
What else would I call my grandpa?
Thank you, thank you.
Chairman.
I made you some brown rice porridge.
I heard it's good for you.
I seem to find ways to inconvenience you.
Thank you, Ms. Yang.
Don't mention it.
- It's hot. - Okay.
Try it.
You said you didn't have an appetite.
Did you see?
This is what sincerity means.
He registered the marriage without telling you?
How could that happen in times like this?
There was nothing I could do other than run away.
Sue him immediately.
Registering a marriage without the person knowing...
is a crime.
I'd like to sue him immediately,
but if I do,
his family will sue my parents for fraud.
Fraud?
This is unbelievable.
Make him stay away from our neighborhood.
Okay.
Do you know how hard it was for me to get rid of him?
I'm sorry.
Did he leave when you told him to?
I told him you might not return if he stays here...
and that you might hide in a place no one knows,
so that he should go home today...
and that I'd set up a meeting this weekend.
He left when I said that.
You want me to meet Dae Sik?
Are you going to let him come back here?
What if we get caught I rented out a room without telling the landlord?
Okay, I'll handle this.
My beautiful bride should be getting a facial.
What brings you all the way here on our wedding day?
I came because I wanted to see you.
How could you say the sweetest things ever?
- Have a seat. - Okay.
The bedding, curtains, tea table and chairs...
will be delivered to your house today. Is your housekeeper home?
Housekeeper?
What housekeeper?
The person who helps around the house.
- We don't have a housekeeper. - What?
Then who does the household chores?
Who cleans...
and who cooks?
We have someone that comes and cleans twice a week...
and Seung Joo and I take turns cooking.
We aren't that good a cook, but it's edible.
What about the trash and the laundry?
I take out the trash and Seung Joo does the laundry.
My goodness. Really?
I lost weight from not being able to eat well, didn't I?
I'm sure you'll cook delicious food for me when we get married.
I'll be looking forward to it.
- I don't know how to cook. - What?
What do you mean you don't know how to cook?
What did you eat all these years?
I eat out.
I only know how to make chicken breast salad.
You can learn how to cook.
That isn't a problem.
Man Seok.
Are you marrying me to make me your housekeeper?
Of course not.
How can I let you work in the kitchen?
I'll do it.
I'll do everything, so don't worry about anything.
Are you serious?
- Oh, right. Seung Joo. - What?
What about Seung Joo?
Seung Joo is at home. What should we do?
What do you mean?
If she sees our bed, new curtains,
and furniture delivered to our house,
she could find out we're getting married.
Oh, no. You're right.
What should we do, Man Seok?
Gosh. Darn it.
Hi, Seung Joo. It's me.
Yes, Dad.
You're craving the food I made for you yesterday?
But it's too late for lunch.
Haven't you had lunch yet?
I was too busy working to have lunch.
Okay. I'll make it right now and bring it to you.
My goodness.
Thank you.
I really enjoyed it.
Maybe you take after your mom. You're quite good.
I'm a pretty good cook.
I'm sorry, Seung Joo.
- For what? - For everything.
I'm too busy working to take care of you.
I can't even help you prepare for your engagement ceremony next week.
This is for you.
- What's this? - My engagement gift for you.
Buy a new car with this.
Please take it back. I'm jobless. I don't need a car.
I despise people who waste resource...
by driving a fancy car when they don't even have a job.
You brat. Just spend it as you like.
You're acting weirdly.
You did something to apologize to me for, didn't you?
You always give me an allowance when you're sorry to me.
My goodness. No... No. I didn't do anything wrong.
You're lying.
When you didn't come to the contest when I was in elementary school,
you bought me inline skates.
You're acting just like the way you did back then.
Stop talking nonsense and leave. I should work late tonight.
Okay.
Take care of your health even when you're busy.
I love you, Dad.
I'm sorry, Seung Joo.
You may be disappointed right now,
but you will understand me someday.
My goodness.
Nam Jin, you look so great.
You look like Alain Delon.
- Do I look okay? - Yes.
I feel a little awkward.
You look fabulous.
This is my wedding gift for him.
Tell him that I'm sorry for not attending his wedding.
Okay. Is President Han of Minhan Group...
Seung Joo's father?
Then Seung Joo will be there too.
Why? Do you want to see her?
Gosh, no.
She's dating Director Choi. People might get a wrong idea.
We're just friends.
- Chairman Ahn. - Yes?
You may not know,
but Nam Jin thinks that Jin Ah is the only girl...
in the whole world.
Jin Ah? Nam Jin, do you have a girlfriend?
She's not his girlfriend.
No, sir.
She's just Nam Jin's old friend.
How could you make her look like Nam Jin's girlfriend?
I didn't say anything that's not true.
If he's the owner of the company that works with Hyunkang,
Director Choi's mother will be there too.
She'll probably come since she'll be his in-law.
Chairman Ahn, I'll go with him.
Okay.
I can't believe you.
Who are you to go there?
I'll make watery kimchi today, so stay and help me.
No. I will go with him.
Nam Jin, let's go.
Oh, no. I'm running late.
Where did Mom's picture go?
I'll put all these in the storage room.
Did Dad put it away?
No way. I don't think he did that.
I like how you dressed today.
You look intelligent, elegant, and classy.
Thank you.
By the way, what time is the wedding?
3pm.
3pm? Then why are we leaving at 3pm?
We won't even be able to see the wedding ceremony.
I had something to take care of.
Is the design contest going well?
Yes. The employees at my company chose...
the same designs you chose.
I was right about you as I expected.
Gosh. I wish I had participated in the contest too.
Then I would've been chosen as a successful applicant.
I'm just joking.
You are so innocent and transparent.
In my experience,
people who show their feelings just as they are like you do...
always end up being hurt by other people.
So...
I want to protect you.
I want to keep you from getting any filth...
from anyone in the world.
Are you protecting me or controlling me?
Both.
My goodness. You look so pretty, Yeon Sil.
You looked prettier at your first wedding though.
But you're still pretty.
Don't be silly. I was much younger back then.
Of course I was prettier than I am now.
By the way, you promised to help me get away with embezzling.
If you don't, I might run away with all the money gift.
Gosh.
Watch your mouth.
If I don't marry him, both you and I will become penniless.
Yeon Sil.
- Oh, my. Man Seok. - Hi.
I'm so nervous.
What if I faint in there?
You have me, Yeon Sil.
I will protect you.
You're so manly.
By the way, has Seung Joo not arrived yet?
Did you not even tell her about our wedding either?
I can't do that. She's my only daughter.
Think about Seung Joo's temper.
What if she screams that she's against our wedding?
I'm scared.
I asked Director Choi to bring her when the wedding almost ends.
So don't worry about anything.
Thank you.
(Bride: Ko Yeon Sil, Groom: Han Man Seok)
(Bride: Ko Yeon Sil)
(Groom: Han Man Seok)
What is going on?
This is not...
That's right. This is your father's wedding.
That can't be.
How could this be happening?
No.
This can't be.
You're here, Seung Joo.
Why are you so late?
You knew, didn't you?
Of course.
Your father personally asked me for this favor.
How could you do this after promising me to stop it?
Stay out of your father's life now.
I'll be by your side from now on.
Choi Si Woo.
Did you say trust and respect will bring us comfort?
However,
what meaning does our relationship have...
when I can't even trust you?
So?
What is it you want to do?
It's over.
(It's My Life)
My heart started beating faster and I wondered what was wrong.
This is what triggered it.
Are you running away?
Are you saying Seung Joo ran away from home?
Now I'm sure.
A marriage without love,
dating someone just because we have the same interest...
and getting married.
I won't do any of that.
