Who is it at this hour?
(Kang Joon Ho)
What's going on?
Hello?
What's happening?
Darn it.
What a mess.
Song Joo.
I told you.
If you had any secrets...
and if you told me everything, I'd trust you.
Okay, so... I didn't do it on purpose.
I was just so angry that...
As angry as me?
I asked. I begged!
I only wanted to hear the truth from you.
Was it that hard to say just one thing?
I'm sorry but I didn't mean to deceive you, I swear.
I won't trust you anymore.
Whatever you say!
I'm sorry. Everything's my fault.
- Wait. - Get out of the way!
Where will you go?
I'll take you. I'm worried.
Then tell me.
Who did you call with that phone?
Who did you drink with last night?
Well...
I was with Mi Rae.
Careful.
I'm really sorry.
It's my fault. I'm in the wrong.
No, no. No!
Song Joo. Song Joo!
Song Joo!
I said I'd cook you rice.
I like this. It's tasty and light.
Call your dad after school...
and visit your stepmom.
Is she very sick?
I think so.
She's your stepmom who cooks and looks after you.
Don't ignore her.
Okay.
Eat up or you'll be late.
(Home Shopping Products)
What's this?
In case it helps,
I researched the cosmetic products available on home shopping networks.
Some of them are cheap,
but those that claim to have a special effect are expensive.
Compared to this product here, I think our price range might work.
How did you think of doing this?
You liked my idea.
So I looked into it. We must know to move forward.
You're better than me.
If you studied the field, you'd have been successful.
I can start now then.
Sure. Good luck.
Let's organize this by network and give it to Marketing.
Okay.
Since you scored, lunch is on me.
Sorry. I already have plans.
We'll meet a composer?
Yes. You wanted to.
Well, more than wanting to meet a composer,
I thought that we'd have to meet one.
After much trouble, I found us a composer.
Oh, there you are.
How have you been?
Sit over here.
Sit, sit.
Say hello.
This is famous composer Mr. Nam Woon Ah.
Don't you know him?
Gosh, of course I do.
You composed the famous "At Godong Station"...
and "Dear Brother".
It's a pleasure to meet you.
Do help me out. I'm Oh Dal Sook.
Hi, nice to meet you.
Since we finally found you a composer,
show him what you've got.
- I'll do my best. - Okay.
Slosh, slosh, sloshing at the brim
Like whiskey in a glass
Honey. Honey, honey, honey!
- Honey! - What, what, what?
What is it? Is something going on?
Yes, something's going on.
What is it?
My sweet little husband.
Just now, I met...
a composer!
Did you really?
That is so great. That's amazing.
So? Did he give you a song already?
We don't get songs the day we meet a composer.
He'll write me something nice in time.
What did you tell the man yesterday...
that he changed his tune overnight?
You're a true politician.
A real negotiator.
Right? I got through to him, didn't I?
Like I said, you look out more for the crying child.
I went over there...
and talked to him out of my love for you.
"How can you do this to someone you handpicked?"
I looked right into his eyes and made some demands.
Whether it's politics or entertainment,
communication and sincerity is key.
You're so, so cool.
This is why I love and respect you so much.
Respect?
Really?
You bet.
There's no husband like you.
You don't yell like Bok Nam...
or are a loser like Joon Ho.
You're the best. I'm going back for my lessons.
Wait, what? Lessons?
Vocal lessons.
For the next three days straight, I have vocal training.
Oh, do you?
Honey, thank you.
See you later.
This is a crime scene.
It was clean when I left work yesterday.
That means something went down during the night.
The criminal always leaves a trace.
A broken new phone and a vet who canceled all his appointments.
Are these signs of a breakup?
Director Kang.
- Hello. - Hi, Soo Mi.
Is Director Kang at work?
No.
He canceled his appointments.
Why?
One broken phone, another turned off, wife in the hospital.
Do you get it?
Not at all.
Ask him yourself later.
When you find out, tell me too.
Did something happen?
Song Joo, you're awake.
Do you recognize me?
Kang Joon Ho.
You're okay then.
Let me help.
What about the clinic?
I canceled my appointments.
That's the least of my worries when you're like this.
I don't even dare make an excuse.
I'm sorry.
Exactly what did you do wrong?
I deceived you and bought another phone.
And I lied to you about meeting Mi Rae.
But we didn't have an affair.
She told me not to speak ill of you around her.
You spoke ill of me to her?
No, I didn't say anything bad.
We just talked.
I told her about you, that's all.
I'm sorry.
What else?
There's more?
Is that all you did wrong?
That's all, I swear. There's nothing else.
Joon Ho, you really don't know.
Do you have something on me?
You disappointed me.
I wanted to trust you so badly.
I believe that...
you loved me as much as I loved you.
It was all fake.
That makes me so sad.
No, nothing's fake. It's all real.
I love you too. That's why I married you.
It's just that...
you were suffocating.
When I found out that you were tracking my phone,
I got angry.
I'm sorry. I really didn't know you were hurting so much.
Then what will you do from now on?
From now on?
Do well.
I'll do everything you say as best I can.
Then bring Dong Hyun back.
- What? - Right now.
Is Dong Hyun with you?
No, he's not here yet. Why?
When he comes, send him home.
No, I'll come and get him. Call me.
What's going on? Your wife's sick.
You should stay with her.
I should watch Dong Hyun then.
I'm in a bit of a mess.
Call when Dong Hyun gets there.
Dong Hyun won't pick up and...
he's not at Mi Rae's yet.
I told her to call when he comes so I can pick him up.
What will you say when you do?
That I'm taking him home.
No. That woman took him without my consent.
"Don't do it again. It's not what's best for him."
Tell her that.
Do I have to be that harsh?
For Dong Hyun's sake too, it's best that he doesn't see her.
He needs to get used to me.
And you should stop using Dong Hyun as an excuse to see her.
Okay.
Sort things out at the vet and go and get Dong Hyun.
It's 5pm now so be back by 8pm, okay?
Okay.
You refused lunch so have dinner with me.
Sorry.
I have to go home and make a stop on the way too.
How can my only employee abandon me on her first payday?
I made a reservation.
Sorry. You should've asked sooner.
I heard that superiors have to tiptoe around their staff nowadays.
It's true.
Sorry.
It's too late to cancel too.
Then eat with Ms. Seo.
It's nice to eat with your mother on your first payday.
Do you think I'm like you?
I have to go. Bye.
She's so excited.
Is she that pleased to ditch me?
Your dad told me to call as soon as you arrive.
It's to take me home.
I want to go as late as possible.
Call in two hours.
After dinner.
I'm not a fan of lying.
Mi Rae... Dong Hyun, you're here too.
- Hello. - Hi.
I got paid. Those are for you.
Hey, I'm so touched.
Congratulations on getting your first pay, Jin Ok.
Congratulations.
I wonder what you got us.
Gosh.
You got something that pretty much represents you.
Pure cotton, baggy and white.
I know. You should've gotten her something lacy.
Why did you get us presents...
when you can't have made that much?
It's instead of my mom.
We buy our parents red thermal underwear with our first paycheck.
But I don't have a mom to buy that for.
So I got you something.
You're making me cry.
Okay.
Instead of your mom, I'll wear it until it has holes.
Well done on working so hard.
I should've listened to my mom and instead of marrying so soon,
I should've gone to college like you two,
found a job, made money and bought her underwear.
Hey, if you did that, then by now...
you'll be saying, "I should've gotten married then."
Do you think so?
You wouldn't have met Bok Nam at least.
And you'd have had a better life.
Bok Nam is a very unique case.
He took my husband out...
to eat meat to thank him for everything...
and only ordered two portions, so Heo Se filled up on cabbage.
When?
Yesterday. Heo Se's really ticked off.
After all we owe him...
I'm so embarrassed.
You don't have to be.
We're used to it. It's fine.
This won't do. Come to my place for dinner.
Just like that?
Bring Heo Se and the kids. You too.
I'll buy you beef.
Wow, it looks delicious.
The meat looks amazing.
Are we allowed to eat all this?
It's fine, the meat's from beef cattle.
Try the meat.
It's Korean beef.
- Eat your fill. - Thanks.
Heo Se, especially you. This is on me.
Thanks so much. You're the best.
You're just wasting money.
Try some, Father.
This isn't too expensive. So Young, sit down.
I'm trying to lose weight.
This is okay. It doesn't have too much fat.
- Sit. - Okay.
- Thanks, Mom. - Enjoy yourself.
Oh, right.
For So Young, Mr. Baek and Dae Young.
What's this?
An allowance.
I couldn't give you a lot but it's from my first paycheck.
Mom.
You don't have to give me anything.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for accepting.
What about me? Where's mine?
You gave the kids money, even Mr. Baek.
Am I not family?
You can eat a lot of meat.
It's nice and tender and should be good.
Shall we all have a drink?
- Let's all drink. - Bok Nam, you too.
Let's drink.
Your life's in a right mess too.
Why don't you just retaliate?
Cause a fuss. You're at just the right age.
How can you say that?
Think about your own future.
Your parents won't.
Why won't they?
Parents have an obligation and...
What's the rest? Anyway, they have to look after you.
I try not to mind too much,
but she tracks my phone,
suspects everything and keeps calling and it's annoying.
GPS tracking?
That's thriller material.
You really need to fight back.
I told you to solve the problems.
I was just working on one right now.
Were you? Let me see.
Women are truly scary.
Bok Nam.
What? What?
Why are you eating like that? Slow down?
What?
It's tasty.
Is the food I eat a waste too?
Dad.
Bok Nam.
We're supposed to share but you're eating every...
- What? - We can always cook more.
Bok Nam must've been really hungry.
Eat all you want.
I'll cook some more in the kitchen.
My gosh.
Is he doing that on purpose?
Obviously.
He's upset that you didn't give him money.
He could be upset.
Why didn't you get him underwear when you got ours?
What did he do to deserve that?
We're told to treat the people we dislike a bit better.
I left him out on purpose.
He snubbed and mocked me and my job so many times.
He told me to quit over a dozen times.
He loses all his favor because of what he says.
He's such an embarrassment.
Look at him act like a child in front of Heo Se and Mr. Baek.
We're friends. It's fine.
Heo Se's simple-minded and will forget soon.
Yes, me too.
I forget things soon. You know me.
You two are the only reason I still laugh.
Shall I try some meat?
It's so good. It melts in my mouth.
It's hot.
(Kang Joon Ho)
Hello?
My gosh.
You didn't have to come all the way here.
Where's Dong Hyun?
Must you do this?
I have to take him back now.
She's in hospital...
and you'll stay with her all night.
I'll go home with Dong Hyun. We agreed to that.
Why are you two so particular?
Will you help me out?
I'm in a situation of sorts.
What situation?
Stop being so frustrating and talk.
I want to tell you. I really want to say how I feel.
You won't know how I feel.
Is something going on between you two?
Did you two fight?
It's best that Dong Hyun stay with one family for a while.
Song Joo's his primary caregiver so let's do as she wants.
I won't be able to call you for a while.
Just so you know.
You have a weird way of putting things.
We weren't in touch on a regular basis anyway.
Anyway, I can't call you for a while and neither can Dong Hyun.
Send him out. I'll wait in the car.
What got into him?
Hey, hey.
What is it?
Bok Nam's been really weird recently.
He ate all that meat earlier and now he's asleep snoring.
I just don't get it.
He worked all day and must be tired.
It's not that. These days I think...
I shouldn't have let you get married.
Why would you say that?
No. I thought he was outgoing and generous,
but he just yells all the time and throws tantrums.
He's so stubborn too. You saw him earlier.
Others were there trying to eat and he ate up everything.
I got him all wrong.
He must have a reason.
He's not that kind of guy.
What?
Are you defending him already?
The last time, when his store was robbed,
he said he asked me to watch his store.
He blamed and cornered me saying...
it was my fault his store was robbed.
I was so disappointed that day.
Were you not mistaken?
Who? Me?
No way.
I was so upset that...
I went through my call history. Look.
He's so stubborn and never gives in.
Are you okay?
Yes. I'm much better.
Did your mom give you something strange to eat?
No, we had meat. Beef.
That's right, beef. I checked, you can believe us.
Okay. Take Dong Hyun home.
Will you really be okay on your own?
I'm not seriously ill.
Go home with Dong Hyun and come back tomorrow.
Dong Hyun, you have no homework just for today.
Don't eat any snacks, shower and go to bed.
Okay.
There's salad and meat in the fridge for tomorrow. Eat that.
Okay, I'll eat it.
- Sleep well. - I will, thanks.
You're the best.
My gosh.
Dad.
Is it just us at home until tomorrow?
Yes. Why?
What are you doing?
I wanted to do that so badly.
Taking my socks off and tossing them as soon as I get home.
That's a bad habit.
I know it is, but I still wanted to do it.
And leave my clothes lying about.
Dad. Can I do that?
Yes. If that's what you want to do, do it.
But you need to put them away too.
Perfect.
TV, it's so good to see you.
Are you happy?
Yes.
I feel like I can finally breathe. I feel free.
Free?
Sure, you be free at least.
Do whatever you want tonight.
Can I really?
Do you mean that?
Yes, you can do what you want.
If you're serious, I'm ordering sweet and sour pork and jajangmyeon.
As you wish.
I'm so tired I'm going to bed.
Perfect.
It's late. Why not stay the night?
We'll just make you feel uncomfortable.
I prefer my place now.
"My place"? That's upsetting.
This is my place and so is my other place.
Don't you get upset.
Where's your dad?
He's asleep. He must've been tired.
He's fast asleep.
Don't wake him up.
Okay, bye.
- Take care. - Bye.
- Goodbye. - See you.
You tutored the kids. Get some rest.
I'll finish washing the dishes with you first.
You don't have to.
What is the matter with him?
He embarrassed me so much.
I can't ditch him now.
Do you feel better now?
Free?
Dad, it's amazing.
It tastes so good.
As long as you're happy, it works for me.
Dad.
Is something going on?
Yes, something's going on.
You don't need to know.
Dad.
What now?
Can I take tomorrow off too?
No.
Tell her to reduce my homework at least.
If not that,
can you tell her not to call me every hour?
- Dong Hyun, listen. - What?
Go to bed.
Come on. Dad.
My gosh.
Heo Se.
Here.
Drink some cold water and brighten up.
I'm done for.
I messed up this life.
I knew it.
This morning and at Bok Nam's earlier.
I knew something was wrong.
What is it?
She found out about my other phone.
She caught me red-handed...
and chewed me out completely.
The other phone?
The GPS tracker.
It's all your fault.
Why did you give me the idea and get me in this mess?
Am I the scapegoat for everything now?
Why does everyone blame everything on me?
You should blame your lack of wit.
My lack of wit?
Why did you get the new phone in the first place?
It was because your wife was tracking you.
You should blame the cause, not the result.
We're equally responsible.
Well...
I couldn't fight back.
Why not?
I used the other phone only to call Mi Rae.
I met her behind my wife's back and lied about it.
She ambushed me before I could do something about it.
Are you having an affair with your ex-wife?
As if. Not at all.
Mi Rae won't have it.
If that's the case,
you still have feelings for her.
It's not like we got divorced because I fell out of love,
and Mi Rae's still the amazing and cool woman.
Song Joo's too controlling and I feel suffocated,
so I miss my ex who was like a friend.
I don't know.
You poor thing.
You idiot.
You should've threatened to end it when your wife caught you.
It's not as easy as you think.
It's not like Mi Rae will have me back.
Song Joo's uptight...
but I still think I can get through it somehow.
Sweet men tend to have no backbone.
You seem so firm and direct most of the time,
so why are you bendy like a reed when it really counts?
My gosh.
So what'll you do now?
I already threw in the towel and went on my knees.
You actually knelt down in front of her?
Then it's over. It's over.
You're done for.
See, if I hadn't helped,
you'd have done this all night.
You're right. We're almost done.
Mom.
Shall we live by ourselves?
By ourselves? What about your dad?
I saved up what I made working part-time.
I can rent a small room.
Is it because of what I said last time?
I don't want to see you suffer because of Dad anymore.
Dae Young, you of all people shouldn't talk like that about him.
Why? Why can't I?
Even if we split up, you're his son.
I don't care.
Being your son is good enough.
I don't need anything more.
Kang Joon Ho, Kang Dong Hyun.
Is this what you're going to do?
After all I said, you still ignore me?
Wait and see.
You'll pay for this.
(Lady Cha Dalrae's Lover)
I think your dad's upset about yesterday.
You always condemn and scold...
and you never try to listen to anyone.
Didn't Master Sagong say he's going to produce a musical?
He's a teacher. He seems to be thinking about it.
Why worry when the school's his?
She calls every 30 minutes. It's annoying.
Dong Hyun. I know you have complaints...
but you should start calling her "Mom".
