Honey...
Honey.
Tonight, I will show you...
how far I can go.
Honey.
Hey, Honey! Honey!
What are you doing?
Honey. My goodness.
My goodness. Honey.
Gosh.
Dal Sook.
Are you up?
Don't ask.
Goodness.
Did you sleep well?
Yes, this is it.
Holding me close...
and asking if I slept well.
I feel so happy.
You waited for me.
Thanks so much.
I'm more thankful to you for trying.
I guess...
you don't just get what you want by waiting.
You have to work towards it as you wait.
Think about it.
How hard did we try?
Right. We wore that conjoined-twin T-shirt...
and did all sorts of things worthy of a comedy show.
What I realized is that while we went to that couples' clinic...
and did those hilarious things,
we also talked a lot to each other.
We fought a lot too.
But we didn't fight like enemies never to meet again.
All that talking, the communication.
I think that worked.
Communication. Yes, talking.
That's important between couples.
What I realized is that...
you must talk to each other to rekindle your love.
Good for you.
Since we're at it,
there's a topic that needs some serious talking about.
What is it?
You beat Il Lan...
and passed the audition.
I feel so sorry for the girl.
It's not the first time she failed an audition.
That's not the problem. What will you do?
- What? - They'll make you a trot singer.
Will you do it or not?
Do you think I'll take the offer or not?
I don't know.
Do you want me to or not?
I don't know.
Then think about it today...
and bring your answer this evening.
I'll hear your answer first and then decide.
- Honey. - What?
Thank you for last night.
That's okay. I should thank you.
That's that.
Bring your answer this evening.
I will.
(Episode 45)
What's taking them so long?
- Girls. - Mom.
- Il Lan's not going to school. - What?
- That little brat's... - Honey, honey.
Gosh.
Don't just yell at her and comfort her instead.
How upset must she be?
Even I'd want to skip school.
Then you go and get her.
Okay.
My gosh.
Goodness.
Will you become a trot singer?
Do you think I will or not?
I don't know.
Do you want Mom to become a singer or not?
I don't know. I'm not sure what's better.
Then bring the answer to both those questions this evening.
Il Lan.
I understand how you feel so well.
How could you fail,
and your mom who went up to help you pass?
You should go on a TV show that tells incredible stories.
Right? Right, Dad?
Yes.
I understand how you feel.
I knew it.
You're the only one who understands.
Right?
Take the day off and rest up.
You can skip school tomorrow too. Go back when you want to.
- Can I really? - You bet you can.
I'll call your teacher. Don't worry and rest up.
This is great. You're the best.
Thanks. So...
What'll you do if your mom decides to debut as a trot singer?
She can't.
Then will you never audition again?
I will.
But if you keep skipping school like this,
will your mom let you?
I'll go to school.
Right? Get ready and come downstairs.
- Okay. - Hurry up.
- Hurry. - Hurry.
What do you mean?
One of our laboratory workers moved to that company recently.
I think he took all the information.
How else could they have an identical design?
How much info did he take?
He resigned right after your investor briefing.
The renewed concept was out by then.
Then he won't know the components or characteristics in detail.
We'll sue him first,
get him detained and then find out.
We have the files we need.
Meet the Legal Team and prepare for a lawsuit.
You should apologize before we sue someone.
- Apologize for what? - You blamed Jin Ok.
Now I know it wasn't her. Why should I apologize?
And the situation was suspicious.
You shielded her from any possible disadvantages...
so why should I apologize?
Oh, gosh. Yellow roses?
Are they pretty?
They are. Where did you get them?
Someone asked me to pass these to you.
You don't believe me? It's true.
There's a card inside. Read it.
Then you'll know the sender.
Sorry. We found the leak.
Mr. Oh.
The laboratory called.
Chinese medicine component in Somi's product is different from ours.
It's for the better.
Let's create a better product...
and get a patent first.
That's easy to say. How can we make a better product?
I'm sure you'll have an idea.
You're unbelievable.
Rock seaweed from the wild makes...
the best seaweed soup.
Dong Hyun must be happy that he can eat your seaweed soup.
It's such a relief that he's with me today.
Dal Sook.
That sounds like Jin Ok.
Oh, gosh, these are beautiful.
Hey.
You can't have bought those yourself.
- Were they a gift? - From my superior.
Your superior who's a guy?
That psycho?
Whether he's a psycho or an old man,
the man should buy the flowers.
Why did he get you flowers?
He wanted to apologize to me.
The CEO ran off her mouth.
He's not a psycho if he cares about how his employees feel.
He sounds like a nice guy.
My gosh. They look amazing.
Right? It's actually the first time I ever got flowers.
I didn't know how it feels when someone...
buys you flowers.
I thought, "This bouquet must be worth a ton of bean sprouts,"
but I was pleased.
So this is how it feels to get flowers.
That's a given.
Flowers are always nice to receive.
It makes you feel like people care.
It does. It's been so long since I got flowers.
Heo Se's so nice to you. Doesn't he buy you flowers?
He buys me meat but not flowers.
Such is life.
Jin Ok, you finally got a bouquet of flowers...
but from another man.
Bok Nam should learn.
I deserve a bouquet too.
- You got a role? - Yes.
You quit drinking to focus on getting your voice back...
and you finally did it.
Good for you. I'm so proud of you.
Congratulations, Mi Rae. Keep the flowers.
Why should I keep the first bouquet you got in your life?
I'm the one who really deserves flowers.
What happened?
If you deserve flowers, it must be a good thing.
Wait. Did the couple therapy work?
That succeeded as well,
but there's news that will shock you both.
It's shocking? What is it?
I got it.
Are you pregnant again?
Hey. The therapy only just succeeded.
I can't be pregnant already.
Then what is it?
Il Lan had an audition not long ago.
Did she pass?
Il Lan failed, and I got through.
I'm leaving. I have to cook a breakfast feast for Dong Hyun.
And seaweed soup.
I have to cook dinner too. See you.
Hey!
I'm not kidding.
Il Lan was so nervous that...
she froze on stage.
I got frustrated, so I went up and danced with her.
The judges saw that and said they want to make me a trot singer.
The guy wants to see me tomorrow.
It's true, okay?
Dal Sook, I think you deserve these.
That's true?
Dal Sook.
Your dad wanted to sing trot,
and you'll realize the dream instead.
But...
I'm not sure if I should go in tomorrow or not.
What do you mean? Why even think?
Of course you must do it.
Right. You have the talent and the heart for it. Why not?
Mi Rae, you said that...
not having a dream is a problem,
but it's hard to survive if your dream betrays you.
The music industry's tough.
Hey, if you're not sure what to do, do it.
When you can't decide, give it a shot first.
What are those?
You don't know because you've never seen them before.
These are called flowers.
I know what they are.
You wouldn't have bought something so expensive.
Why does everyone think I wouldn't have bought them?
You compare the price of everything...
to the price of bean sprouts.
Would you have bought something you can't eat?
- Was it a gift? - Yes.
A gift?
Who would give you something like that?
I slaved away for someone all my married life and never got flowers.
Instead, I got them from someone I met a month ago for doing well.
- They're from Seo Jin? - Yes.
Gosh, now that I think of it, the roses look like you, Mom.
They're yellow, not the passionate red.
They look like you, aging gracefully.
You think?
Just like the roses,
you're blooming too.
I wish that were so. Thanks for saying so.
Put it somewhere else.
We can't have that next to food.
I was about to take it to my room.
These flowers look like me?
- Dad, what are these? - Be quiet.
Where's your mom?
Doing the dishes.
In here? Come with me.
Yi Ran, what do you think is going on?
I don't know, but it looks like Dad did something dreadful.
Like what?
Something he needs 100 roses for just to get out alive.
Do you think he'll make it?
- Mom. - Mom.
What do you want? My goodness.
Hey.
What's this? Honey.
Dal Sook. Accept my feelings for you.
I need to know what those feelings are to decide.
Congratulations so much on passing the audition.
Dad!
My gosh. Are you that pleased?
Of course I am. I got so lucky.
You don't buy me flowers.
What gave you the idea?
Honey.
I thought about what you said this morning.
Whether you do it or not, I wanted to congratulate you first.
Someone in our family showed talent by passing an audition.
I had to do this much.
Dad, are you going to make Mom a singer?
No, I said I don't want her to sing.
I won't debut, so don't worry.
Honey.
Until a while ago, I was still on the fence.
But the flowers you got me changed my mind.
No one can guarantee I'll do well as a singer.
Even if I do well,
would that mean more to me than you and the twins?
That's not what I meant when I gave you that.
Like those lovely flowers in bloom,
I want you to be successful too.
That's why I bought them.
It's more than enough for me that that is how you feel.
- Mom. - You brat.
Now do you feel bad? What'll you say?
I'm so happy that you're my mom, Mom.
Goodness.
Honey.
What man cries over something like that?
- Come here for a hug. - I'm being so silly.
- Did you cry? - Oh dear.
- What's wrong with me? - Stop crying.
Oh dear. My goodness.
What a mess.
I cooked sausages and seaweed soup last night...
just so he could have a birthday breakfast feast.
Mom, I'm off.
- Wait a bit. - I'm late.
It's your birthday. Have some seaweed soup.
I cooked it last night in case I got up late.
Why did you sleep in too?
Forget it, I'm late.
Dong Hyun.
Dong Hyun, wait.
I'm late.
You can't just leave on your birthday. Have some soup.
Then you should've gotten up early.
Sorry.
Have some broth at least.
I cooked it for you.
Why did we both sleep in on a special day like this?
It tastes just fine.
Dong Hyun.
Why are you so late?
Take this with you.
- What's this? - Your birthday lunch.
I cooked spicy shrimp and your favorite sausages.
There's seaweed soup in the thermos. Enjoy it all.
Thank you.
I'll come home later.
Okay. See you later.
Hey, Jin Ok.
Jin Ok.
What can't he find this morning that he's shouting for me?
My goodness.
Jin Ok.
Oh dear.
Did you get fired from your job already?
- Why haven't you left? - I'm working from home.
Is washing dishes working from home?
You called me to ask me that?
Put my socks on for me.
What are you doing?
Are you trying to suffocate me?
I can't move my arms that well.
It's true. I'm all weak.
I can't clench my fingers.
Maybe they're just cramped. Massage them and try again.
If you have the time to talk, put my socks on for me.
My gosh.
I have to put your socks on for you?
You'll ask me to feed you soon.
How strange.
Look.
You can make a fist.
Did you do that on purpose?
Why can I do this now?
I couldn't do it earlier.
I put up with you for too long.
That woman...
How odd.
It's good to receive gifts.
A gift set. That's it.
My mom was so pleased.
Women all love flowers.
You don't like flowers?
Men loves flowers too.
They are pretty, but there's no other use for them.
Come on.
Must something have a use to like them?
Women like a lot of pointless things too.
Like jewels, handbags, and flowers.
How do you know more about that than me?
You're the one who knows too little.
You might end up like my dad.
What about him?
He never bought my mom...
a single flower let along a bouquet.
She got her first bouquet from her superior at work.
It's great for Mom, but think how Dad must've felt.
He wouldn't have been pleased.
The vase was on the dining table.
"Why is that on the table?"
"Take it away." He yelled.
Oh dear.
It's not a laughing matter.
You'd better be good to my sister.
I thought about it at home.
To prevent this from happening again,
we must differentiate ourselves with something no one can copy.
How about selling a gift set with a mask pack and cream?
A gift set?
Yes. Our new ampule, mask pack, and cream...
can be used together. They'll look good too.
A cream with a special function?
That sounds good.
Perfect.
That will definitely set us apart.
Why are everyone's socks bothering me today?
What?
Are those the only socks you have?
They're mismatched. Nice.
Where is Nurse Kim So Young?
Nurse Kim So Young?
- Nurse Kim. - Yes?
Must you upset me at work too?
What do you mean?
Those. Are they for you?
Can you sign for them?
- They're for me? - Yes.
To So Young who's like a flower. I love you.
What does it say?
You can't see. It's a secret.
Where did you go without telling me?
To get these.
What are those?
- Items to improve your image. - What?
Will you give a presentation in mismatching socks?
You're too generous. You could've bought just one pair.
Put them on.
Can you put them on me?
Just kidding.
Oh dear.
It's not about my voice anymore.
It's about my energy levels.
My goodness.
I shouldn't waste time. I should prepare...
Dong Hyun's birthday feast before he comes home.
Seaweed soup and rice is all it needs now.
Why isn't he home yet?
Son, when will you come over?
- Where are you? - At home.
At home? Mom's at home too.
No, Dad's home.
Dad's home?
Why are you over there?
I prepared the birthday meal you couldn't eat this morning.
I just...
I'll stay here.
You're busy practicing.
I just make things harder for you.
I'll just stay with Dad.
I'll visit you sometimes on the weekends.
Okay.
It's getting cold, so dress warm.
I will. Bye, Mom.
Did you talk to your mom?
Yes.
You lost weight while you were with her.
You should be eating well so you can keep growing.
I'll cook something special for you.
Okay.
Have some fruit. They're good for you.
I won't make you memorize as much English as before.
Okay.
But you must get the grades for your other subjects up.
Okay.
I'm so pleased that you're back.
Hey. What happened?
Why did he come back when he left saying he'll live with you?
Did something happen?
Why did he go home if nothing happened?
I wasn't able to care for him much because I had to practice.
He went back...
thinking it would be best for me.
I slept in this morning...
and couldn't give him any seaweed soup.
Okay. That's what happened.
Why am I crying about something like this?
I'm so embarrassed.
- Oh dear. - Hi.
- Sorry to make you wait. - Hello.
I'm Mr. Go of Go Entertainment.
Oh, nice to meet you.
I'm Tak Heo Se, Dal Sook's husband.
- I see. - Hello.
- You're on the district council? - Yes.
- Nice to meet you. - Same here.
- Please sit. - Sure.
I told you how I feel about this clearly over the phone.
Why did you want to see me in person?
I see how flummoxed you must feel...
because you got asked to sing after participating in an idol audition.
That's true.
And my daughter's against it too.
It's all my fault.
I should've explained everything first.
First,
take a look at this.
What is this?
The contract that our chairman wrote up himself.
Read it carefully and if you...
don't like anything or have a question, ask away.
Why would I read a contract that I don't want to sign...
1, 2... Honey, how much is this?
Hang on. It's...
1, 2, 3... Tens of thousands?
Did you wear just one sock today?
What do you mean?
Who wears just one sock?
You're right.
So that's why just one foot hurt.
If only you'd put it on for me.
I'm thirsty.
It's all about that.
Did you go to work like that to spite me?
Why would I do that? You're being unreasonable.
How could your mom raise you like this...
then give me such a hard time?
How dare you say that about my late mom?
She was good to you in her later years.
Did you raise your son well?
I did.
Look at Dae Young. He's a fine young man.
He's perfect. Unlike you.
How is he unlike me? He's my blood.
You have no conscience.
I have no conscience? My gosh.
I should be saying that to you.
You have no conscience.
Not a drop of your blood flows in Dae Young's body.
Have you lost your mind? I warned you already.
I won't live with you if you say that again.
Gosh, I'm so scared. We sleep separately already.
Leave the house if you want to.
(Lady Cha Dalrae's Lover)
How about we live with them...
and try to change your dad?
Let's barge in this evening.
I want to do it,
but I'm not sure if it's worth betting seven years of my life.
You're on the crossroads of becoming a star or not.
Be brave and do it.
I ate your food all my life,
and I haven't been able to eat them recently.
So Young's not feeling well.
She wanted to stay with her family so we barged in.
