(It's My Life)
(Episode 13)
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 you'd stop it?
Stay out of your father's life now.
I'll be by your side from now on.
Choi Si Woo.
Didn't 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 that you want to do?
It's over between us.
Says who?
There are many people here.
Don't be emotional, okay?
How could you do this?
Are you happy about fooling me and getting married like this?
For that crude woman with no class,
you fooled your one and only daughter.
Did you really have to do this?
"Crude woman with no class"?
Man Seok.
What did Seung Joo just say?
Was she talking about me?
My gosh.
This is why I kept it from you.
Please, Seung Joo.
People are watching.
Let's talk at home, okay? We can talk about this at home.
Seung Joo, do you think you live alone in this world?
If you're sensible,
you should know not to humiliate your father on a day like this.
I don't care about those things.
I cannot allow this.
I absolutely cannot accept this.
- Let's talk outside. - Let go.
- Come here. - I said, let go.
Let go. Let go of me! Let go!
- Is she okay? - What is going on?
- What is happening? - Did she get hurt?
Is she all right?
Are you okay?
Can you... Can you...
Can you take me home, please?
Stand up.
Step aside.
Let's go. I'll take you home.
Don't touch me.
You're the one who should stay out of my life.
Let's go, Nam Jin.
(Congratulations on your wedding.)
My stomach is upset. Could I be nervous?
What happened to your hand?
Did she do this?
I'm fine, Mom.
I didn't think Seung Joo could behave so badly.
There must be a lot of things to teach her.
How could she behave thoughtlessly in front of so many people?
She has no common sense.
Hello. I'm Lee Sang Hyun.
My heart started beating faster, and I wondered what was wrong.
This is what triggered it.
Wi-Fi of love
What are you doing?
Well... I came here to do something Chairman Ahn asked me to do.
I thought I should say hello to the two of you with Nam Jin.
Hello.
Don't mind him.
"Don't mind him"?
She lit a fire in my heart.
How could she say such a thing?
Would you like to...
drink a toast with me to celebrate such a happy event?
- My queen. - Your queen?
I'm speechless.
You're speechless?
That expression originally means there's no handle for a millstone.
There is no way we can find a handle for a millstone here.
I'm speechless.
Cheers.
Why...
Do you not like wine?
I'm sorry. It's just that I don't know what my queen likes.
Do you know the name of this wine?
No. I don't know.
This is rose wine made in Provence in southern France,
which is famous for the best rose wine in the world.
It's called Whispering Angel as it feels like the excitement of spring.
Rose wine.
I didn't know it was that good.
It's a combination...
of subtle strawberry scent and the scent of red flowers.
But you just...
gulped it down as if you were drinking water.
It's not the type of wine you can drink up like that.
I see.
Never show up in front of me again.
It's unpleasant.
You are beautiful.
You're also pretty...
and sophisticated.
You really are an angel. You're an angel.
Wi-Fi of love
Where do you live?
I have somewhere else to go...
rather than my house.
Where?
This...
is the last place I came with my mom before she died.
I see.
My mom was so frustrated because she was in the hospital.
So I took her here.
Do you know what she said?
"I love the breeze from the river."
"Let's come back with your dad next time."
However,
she couldn't come back here.
I asked my dad to come to Han River...
with me and my mom so many times.
But he said he was too busy,
and he would come here with us sometime later.
In the end...
It weighed on your mind.
My mom told me...
that my dad is such a poor judge of character.
She said he was the type of person who would get scammed easily,
so I should take good care of him.
However,
I think I couldn't keep my promise.
I'm apologetic towards her.
You tried.
I'm sure your mother knows that.
I think it's a good thing.
What do you mean?
Now, I'm confident to live...
as a person Han Seung Joo, not as someone's daughter.
Pardon?
What are you planting?
This?
It's garden balsam.
- Garden balsam? - Yes.
Don't you know what it is?
People dye their nails with garden balsam petals.
I know. But why are you planting the flower?
It's because I like it.
I like garden balsam so much.
They say if the dye lasts until the first snowfall of the year,
you will end up with the person you love.
You're innocent like a little girl.
To be honest, I know that dyeing my nails...
wouldn't help me end up with the person I love.
I just like the hope that the flower gives to people.
I feel like it's telling me that I can become happy if I wait.
"You can become happy someday if you wait."
Yes, Nam Jin.
Mom, I'm going to be late because something came up.
Why? What happened?
I can't leave Seung Joo alone.
Seung Joo?
Oh, the lady who saved my life at Dongdaemun Market?
Why? Did something happen to her?
Yes. It's a long story.
I'm afraid she might do something bad if I leave her alone.
Please take good care of Grandpa.
- Okay. - Call me if anything happens.
Okay. Don't worry about us.
Was that Nam Jin?
Yes. He'll be home late because something came up.
Did something happen to Seung Joo?
He said so.
He said she might do something bad if he left her alone.
- Hello, sir. - Hello.
Ms. Yang, you were here too.
Yes, Lawyer Heo.
What are you doing?
I was planting garden balsam.
When the flower blooms next year,
I'll dye your nails too, Lawyer Heo.
Pardon me?
Could you wait here for a minute?
Pardon me? Why?
Today is my Independence Day.
We should grab a drink.
"Independence Day"?
Let's go, Mom.
Hold on, are you running away?
This is called "moving out", not "running away".
Why are you just standing there? Help me put this in the trunk.
Well, I don't think you should do this.
You should speak to your father first.
I'll talk with him later.
I'll meet up with him and tell him after I calm down a little.
Well, should I call a taxi if you can't drive me?
Do you have a place to go?
No, I don't.
I'll just tell the taxi driver to drop me off wherever.
I mean, nothing will happen, right?
Gosh.
You're one fearless woman.
No, I can't let you go alone.
Where are you going to stay, then?
There are hundreds of motels in Seoul.
I can just sleep at one of them. What are you worried about?
My goodness, you're going to stay at a motel all alone?
No way.
Can you eat pig skin?
What are you talking about out of the blue?
I love pig skin.
That's great. Then how about we go for some pig skin...
over soju? What do you say?
Now, you're back to your usual self.
All right, I'm in.
Are you going to let him come back here?
What if we get caught for renting out a room...
without telling the landlord?
Jin Ah.
It's... It's really you, Jin Ah.
Follow me.
Where are we going?
Jin Ah, your foot...
Your leg... What happened to your leg?
How did you get hurt?
Why are you doing this?
Do you want me to take my own life or what?
Don't be angry, Jin Ah.
You're scary when you're angry.
You see, I'm so sick of you.
So leave now, please.
Don't show up in front of me ever again.
Do you... Do you hate me that much?
Jin Ah.
Can't I be with you?
Can't you see?
I'd never choose you.
You and your father think that you can buy women with money.
People like you disgust me.
You make me shudder.
If I go back home like this,
my dad won't let it slide.
- What? - My dad will...
file a complaint against your father.
Have you eaten anything?
- What? - Let's eat something.
I'm hungry.
You want to eat?
Jin Ah, Jin Ah.
Jin Ah can be so crafty.
She has that naive guy wrapped around her little finger.
- Enjoy. - Thank you.
Let's eat.
It's okay.
Just seeing you fills me up.
Eat up.
I bet you haven't been eating well looking everywhere for me.
Jin Ah.
Dae Sik.
Yes. Go ahead, Jin Ah.
Why do you like me so much?
Because you're smart...
and pretty.
I also think you're cool.
You can be cool too.
Stop following me around.
Instead, try doing something productive.
Like what? What should I do?
Think about it.
You rely on your dad's money, and all you do is follow me around.
What woman would find you attractive?
But I'm not good at anything.
What are you talking about?
You're a good cook.
You also play the guitar well.
Why don't you learn something?
Cooking, perhaps?
Do your best so that you can land a job on your own.
I want to see you standing on your own two feet.
If that happens, I may...
change my mind about you.
Are you saying you may find me attractive...
if I manage to get a job on my own?
You never know.
If that happens, and if you still feel the same way about me,
then I'll seriously consider...
dating you.
Really?
Thanks, Jin Ah.
I promise you that I'll become a wonderful man for you.
I had my own dreams,
but my dad forced me to do whatever he wanted me to do.
He made me choose a major that he likes...
and sent me abroad for school against my wishes.
Now, I even have to marry a guy he chose for me?
That's horrible.
How could he force you to live your life the way he wants it to be?
And that woman... That gold digger.
It's so obvious that she's after my dad's money.
How could I let him marry her?
I am his daughter after all. I can't let that happen, you know.
Exactly. You shouldn't let it happen unless he's a total stranger to you.
Also, I'm really disappointed in my dad.
Even on my mom's death anniversary, he skipped the memorial ceremony...
and ran to the hospital...
with that woman because of a mild burn on her hand.
That is incredibly inconsiderate.
How could he do that?
Your father is a horrible person.
Why are you being like this?
- What do you mean? - I am whining about my dad,
but you can't talk like that.
You don't even know him well.
I must say, I feel bad for him in a way.
He must've been lonely.
What? Did you just laugh?
Are you laughing at me now?
That's what family is like.
- What? - You can complain about them,
but it bothers you when others speak ill of them.
Deep down, you understand him.
Then you should just speak to him candidly about the way you feel.
My heart understands him,
but it's too late now.
We've come too far.
No, it's not too late yet.
It's never too late for family members to reconcile.
Even if it takes 30 years,
you're still family.
I made a foolish decision.
I shouldn't have struck a deal with Choi Si Woo...
on my dad's remarriage in the first place.
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.
Since you told me to make an effort,
I did.
But I only realized that I can't make it work like that.
So you declared independence.
Then you should read your declaration of independence.
"Declaration of independence"?
You see, Nam Jin,
I will do what I like to do.
I will get a job on my own...
and get paid what I deserve.
And I will also fall in love with someone passionately.
Good.
I've never seen any declaration of independence like this before.
Right?
All right. Cheers.
Cheers.
Who is it?
Is it your father?
No.
It's the man I kicked out of my life earlier today.
Let's toast.
To Han Seung Joo's successful independent life.
Cheers.
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message...
after the beep.
It's over between us.
How dare she ends it when I don't want it?
I'm the one who makes that decision.
Calm down and have a glass of wine, Man Seok.
Okay? Sit down.
Yeon Sil, Seung Joo seems to be very angry, right?
You were going to go through this at some point anyway.
Gosh. Why isn't she coming home?
She's never done anything like this before.
Man Seok, you're so mean.
It's our wedding night. How can you treat me like I'm invisible?
Yeon Sil, please understand me just for tonight.
Seung Joo has never...
slept out without calling me like this.
It's past midnight.
Wait. Did she...
Did Seung Joo run away from home?
Oh, no. Seung Joo.
Are you saying Seung Joo ran away from home?
- Report her missing to the police. - I already did,
but they couldn't find her because her phone was turned off.
Where is the last place her phone was on?
I see. I'll go check there. Yes.
She ran away from home?
How could this happen?
Seung Joo.
Gosh. Seriously.
Seung Joo. Seung Joo.
Yes, Mr. Lee.
What was the passcode of the door of the studio I rented?
Seung Joo, hold on a second.
Let's have another drink.
You drank way too much.
How much did she drink?
Mom.
Mom, don't go.
What's this?
Gosh.
Gosh. My head hurts.
What's this?
My hair.
Where am I?
(I rented this studio for my mom.)
I rented this studio for my mom to get her treatment at the hospital.
Stay here for a while.
I'll stop by tomorrow morning.
I'll bring you some of my mom's side dishes. So look forward to it.
Oh, right. Your hair got stuck on my sleeve...
while laying you down in bed, so I had to take it off.
Don't be surprised.
It's cold outside. He must've been very cold.
Stop. Stop there. Right there.
Oh, my. He's the man...
who took Seung Joo out of the wedding venue yesterday.
That man?
I heard he's Chairman Ahn's caregiver.
What? A caregiver?
Seung Joo has unique preferences.
Gosh. I will teach that jerk a lesson.
You jerk! You little...
Where are you going, Man Seok?
I'm sorry I came home late, Grandpa.
I couldn't leave her alone because she seemed so precarious.
You did the right thing.
I heard she also saved your mother's life.
We should help each other.
You came home late at night. Why don't you take a nap?
You must be tired.
Late at night?
What did the two of you do late at night?
What... What do you mean?
We... We just had a drink together. I let her vent to me.
Then why... Why are you stuttering?
My goodness. When did I stutter?
You seem a little suspicious even to me too.
Grandpa, why are you acting like this too?
Chairman Ahn, President Han of Minhan Group is here.
President Han?
You... You jerk.
President Han.
How dare you think you can be with Seung Joo?
I think there's a misunderstanding, President Han.
Misunderstanding, my foot.
Where is Seung Joo? Where is she?
What are you doing now?
Well... Chairman Ahn.
This man took my daughter Seung Joo...
How dare you hit Nam Jin?
- Grandpa. - Chairman Ahn.
- Chairman Ahn. - Grandpa!
- Grandpa, no. - Chairman Ahn.
- Grandpa, wake up. Grandpa! - Oh, no.
- Chairman Ahn. - Grandpa. Grandpa.
- Grandpa. - Chairman Ahn.
Chairman Ahn.
(It's My Life)
I will not marry Si Woo.
Are you seeing someone now?
Could you just pretend you never saw me?
Then please stop crying and live your life to the fullest.
You make me want to become a better person, Jin Ah.
- Hello, ma'am. - Mr. Jung.
How about a dinner together this evening?
Today won't work.
My father-in-law is in critical condition.
Chairman Ahn?
