(Episode 26)
Hyo Sim, you came.
My Hyo Sim...
came for me.
Why haven't you been to the gym lately?
Ta-da.
What's this?
What else? Try it on.
Go on. Give me your arm.
Come on. There we go.
That's it.
Let me see.
Gosh, no wonder you're a model. You make it look good.
You look stunning. No one could look better than you.
Isn't this expensive?
It looks like a coat from a department store.
I can't buy my girlfriend just about anything.
I can buy you a gift like this because I'm your boyfriend.
You're not allowed to reject it.
Should I send you home without anything on this cold day?
It's like I'm putting you out.
Rather than feeling that way, just say you're grateful.
That's all it takes.
Why do you like me?
Why would you ask me something like that?
I have nothing going for me.
I'm not even on the prettier side.
Don't talk down on yourself.
I haven't come across anyone...
as responsible, generous,
and kind as you.
Me?
That's right. It's why you take on all the responsibility.
When I was a jerk at the beginning,
you still kept looking out for me.
No one would've blamed you...
even if you chose to ignore me.
But you kept trying to coach me despite all that.
That's because...
It's not easy to come across someone who is always sincere...
to others.
But the last thing I want...
is for you to sacrifice your life to be responsible for others.
I like that you're kind,
but I don't want you to hurt yourself in the process.
Doesn't your mother make life hard for you?
She does.
Did you talk to your mother?
No.
Why not?
Because she's...
so pitiable.
So what?
I think your happiness is most important.
But if your family...
keeps taking everything for granted,
I'd be so angry.
My family...
They aren't bad people.
They have their reasons.
Even so.
I want you...
to live more comfortably than you do now.
Should I have bought a pair of gloves?
Your hands must be freezing.
I'll take you home.
No, you can't.
You'll get an earful from my mom if she were to see you.
Then text me when you're home.
Mom.
Why are you out here in the cold?
(Missing Man)
I won't look for your dad anymore.
I won't wait for him.
"He'll come home."
"As long as he's alive, he'll come home."
"If he ran off and shacked up with a young woman,"
"after ten years, she'd be old and withered too,"
"so he'd return to his wife and kids." That's what I thought.
I'm done waiting for him!
Calm down, Mom. Let's go inside and talk.
I'd rip him to shreds if I could.
He left me behind with four kids...
so he could get on with his own life.
That's subhuman!
That's not what a husband does!
I'll rip him to shreds. I'll tear him up.
The darn punk.
I'll rip him to pieces!
He's not even human.
- Mom, stop! - I'll rip him a new one.
Your fingers are bleeding. Stop!
Mom. You have me.
I'll make it up to you.
I'll make up for what Dad can't do for us.
Don't do this, Mom. You're hurting yourself.
Trust me, Mom, okay?
Hyo Sim.
Hyo Sim...
My Hyo Sim.
(Missing Man)
Mom.
What are you so pleased about?
Here you go.
What's this?
It's my first pay from the gym.
Why give it to me?
You worked hard for it. It's for you to spend.
Just take it. I have nothing to spend it on.
Use it for this month's expenses.
You just lost your housekeeper job.
I can't complain that they want to...
stop hiring help because they can't afford it.
Why would you give...
You made this much?
A gym trainer is a popular job nowadays.
A team leader makes even more.
Even so, this is...
How much is all this?
Mom. Stop making these envelopes.
It takes me one hour to make what you make in five.
There's no point in doing nothing.
I should earn what I can when I'm younger.
Don't talk to me.
I'm trying to count the bills.
Hang on. Seventeen, eighteen.
Do you like it?
Yes.
Are you pleased?
Of course, I am.
Who doesn't like money?
Are you happy?
What's happiness? A soup ingredient?
Why are you talking to me when I'm counting money?
Wait. Where was I?
Right. Twenty, twenty-one.
It's okay. I just want you to be happy.
If you're happy, so am I.
Thirty-five, thirty-six, thirty-seven, thirty-eight.
Money is coming.
Money is endlessly...
coming to me.
I am blessed with a windfall.
Every single day,
a large sum of money will come.
All the money in the universe...
will come to me.
Thanks so much, Ms. Lee.
I'd have lost my job if not for you.
You must've been so stressed out.
My pay will be docked for six months,
but I'm grateful I can keep my job.
I won't cause you or the gym any harm now.
Mr. Hwang will handle our social media now.
Let's do our best from now on.
We'll handle our clients with even more care.
Okay.
Excuse me.
(Laundry Room, Staff Only)
- What were you doing? - Working, of course.
Doing what?
Stop it. We met early in the morning.
It's lunchtime now.
Don't be so harsh.
I was working with Ms. Min...
and must get back soon. What's up?
You'll have gotten paid for the launch show and shoot.
Check your account.
You called to say that?
Yes. I was low on excuses to call,
and it worked for me.
Okay, then. Bye.
What will you have for lunch?
Ms. Min and I will have gimbap.
Why don't you come over?
I can't. My lunch break is just 30 minutes.
I have lots of classes today and have to get right back.
Okay.
I'll call you again later, after lunch.
Can you please not call...
Hello? What the...
My gosh.
Ga On, I'm home.
Are you back from school?
Ga On?
Today, I'm not going to...
talk to them and ask them to hang out with me first.
I'm the one that always comes over to hang out with them.
That makes the lady from the rooftop room...
and even Sun Soon think I'm needy and gossipy.
- Ms. Bang. - My goodness.
Gosh, you startled me.
What are you doing here?
I was enjoying my solitude.
Ms. Bang, isn't Ga On here?
You told me not to spend time with Ga On.
She's not here.
Okay. Thank you.
Wait. I'm coming with you. Wait for me.
Then where would she be now?
She's not answering the phone.
Mr. Park, I think we should call the police first.
I told you to contact the police.
Wait. I'm coming with you.
I heard you were the detective in charge...
of the Daegwallyeong Pass accident of Taesan Group's...
Vice Chairman Kang Jun Bum from three years ago.
Yes, I was.
Now I just run a cafe though.
I got fired because of the case.
I worked my tail off to investigate the details,
but the whole thing was covered up by the higher-ups.
Can you believe that they even sent the vehicle back to Taesan?
Do you think that's what the police would do?
I get that Taesan Group is a big conglomerate...
and Advisor Choi Myung Hee had great influence...
on those who were on important posts in the police,
that's not just right.
Did you see the circumstances of the accident?
Yes.
For some reason, it turned out...
Vice Chairman Kang Jun Bum's car...
suddenly drove off the cliff.
Wasn't it because of a mechanical malfunction?
No.
We examined the tire tracks on the road...
and found out there was another car that caused the accident.
Did you identify the car that caused the accident?
The thing is,
I don't like talking about it with people from Taesan.
I had some bad experiences with them while working on the case.
By the way,
did you not know anything about the accident?
I was abroad on a business trip back then.
When I came back, I just heard about it from my parents...
and read some articles.
Then you should've gone and talked to Director Park Jin Myung...
instead of me.
Director Park Jin Myung?
Yes.
It's Director Park Jin Myung who stepped up to the plate...
and took care of the accident back then.
Oh, right.
He also took the dashcam footage of Mr. Kang's vehicle...
from the police.
That's enough for now.
I deeply hold a grudge against those from Taesan,
so I don't want to talk about the accident anymore.
- Thank you. Please enjoy it. - Thank you.
Come again.
Welcome.
Why are you here again?
Have you been doing well, Ms. Tae Hee?
I'm here to tell you something.
What?
Did you have fun?
If I knew you'd just be running an egg tart store,
I would've let you take care of a food company.
What crap are you trying to pull?
You silly thing with a nasty tongue.
What do you want? Just cut to the chase.
Come back home. Your brother is getting married.
You don't want to miss his wedding.
Tae Min is getting married?
You know I'm not talking about Tae Ho.
Are you sure Tae Min wants to get married?
That doesn't matter.
You'll be next. Seojin Group.
That darn Seojin Group.
Do you think I want to be their daughter-in-law?
Even your brother couldn't escape a marriage of convenience.
Do you think you can avoid it?
You've had enough fun.
Just crawl back home as I say.
Close up the store...
and end things with that loafer.
Otherwise, I will teach you and that brat a lesson.
You know I can be scary.
Don't let yourself be the reason that boy gets hurt,
and crawl back home right away.
Ms. Tae Hee.
Go and tell my mom.
That I would never go back home even if I had a knife at my throat.
Ms. Tae Hee.
Ms. Jang already has a lot of things on her mind.
Then she should give up on me.
She should just think that she doesn't have a daughter.
How would she think that when she had a daughter?
Tae Hee, the delivery is done.
Please leave.
Customers are coming in soon.
I told you to leave!
Who was that?
That doesn't concern you.
Please take your bankbook.

The model from the launch show...
and the photoshoot seems to have been well received.
She also got good reviews from the employees.
Is that so?
Some say she looked a little awkward.
There's a minority opinion like that,
but she received more positive reviews.
So I was thinking we should probably extend her contract.
But people barely know her!
Still, the model fee is reasonable.
And she's got the image and physique that fit our brand.
I believe we can get the most bang for the buck.
It's not easy to find a model as good as her.
By the way, is it true that this is her first time modeling?
Well... Yes.
She's actually a fitness instructor.
I knew it. She's really fit.
She's got the body that every girl wants.
What do you think, Mr. Kang?
Well...
If you want to go with her,
I have no reason to argue against it.
Still, I don't think hiring the same model again is a good idea.
Customers would find it boring.
I don't think that's a problem because this is a new brand.
I'll contact her first.
Are we done now? Let's wrap things up then.
- Okay. Thank you. - Good work.
Mr. Lee.
Yes.
Do you hate me or something?
Gosh, no. Why would I?
How can I hate you when I'm your subordinate?
That's absurd.
Then why do I feel like you don't like me?
We should grab drinks sometime.
Sure. We should do that.
(Youngjoong Real Estate)
(On sale, For rent)
Gosh.
What now?
How would you like to keep working with me?
Sorry?
During our internal meeting today,
there were talks about resigning you as our model.
People are fond of you.
What do you say to another year?
Who suggested that idea?
Are you worried it would've been me?
No, that's not what I meant.
The employees on the team suggested it.
Besides, who cares if I suggest the idea?
Aren't I part of the team too?
Do I seem like someone who can't separate business from pleasure?
Someone would bite my head off even if I attempted that.
All right. I'll give it some thought.
Hello?
If only she was a little cuter and flirted at times.
Maybe I should get her a tutor.
Maybe not.
(Real Estate)
(Taesan)
Hello, this is Kang Tae Min.
I heard you were with the FBI up until recently.
Please locate Park Jin Myung,
a former director at Taesan Group.
The package delivered has all the details,
but the New York cancer center was his last known whereabout.
Your fee won't be of concern,
so find him at all costs.
Just remember...
to only report back to me.
This doesn't concern Taesan Group.
Thank you.
Come in.
What is this about?
The model we booked for our recent campaign...
will be signed on until next year.
Until next year?
That's right.
The company isn't your playground.
This isn't something I pushed for.
She's the model you signed on.
Didn't it occur to you...
that your subordinates would take that into account?
The decision was made as a group...
following an objective review...
from external and internal sources.
Even you yourself admitted that the campaign was a success.
Sure.
If that's what you want...
Do that, then.
But if it were me, I'd never agree to this.
Well, you and I aren't alike.
However,
Cheonae Scholarship Foundation...
will be dissolved.
What?
Have it dissolved.
I'm sorry but I can't do that.
Don't fight me on this...
and do as you're told.
It's the only thing I can do for our late grandmother.
When running a company,
you must sometimes do what you don't want to.
Now, have it dissolved.
Or we'll have the board vote on it.
Why won't you let the foundation running?
At least tell me why.
I get it.
Is it also something I don't have to know about?
What issue could there be...
with supporting the education of the youth?
If you want to make a donation,
do so with your salary.
Why should I when a foundation...
could improve the company image and bring in more sponsors?
Why must you keep questioning everything?
Just do as you're told, darn it!
In organizations,
you are to do as your bosses tell you.
I'm afraid I can't comply.
If this is what you want, call a board meeting...
and let the directors decide on the matter.
Any decisions regarding Grandmother's legacy...
will never be forced upon me in any capacity.
She remains a bruise on my heart.
And so do my parents.
(Uicheon Villa)
Ga On, you're home.
You'll sleep in your room.
I can't believe that little thing ran away from home.
Unbelievable.
Why are you letting her sleep in her room?
You should bite her head off so that she never runs off again.
Gosh. That's enough.
Why should I stop?
She shouldn't be allowed to rest when she ran away from home.
She should get an earful.
It's not like she went very far.
She was in the building storage unit.
In this cold weather,
she could've frozen to death in that storage unit.
Didn't you see how blood was drained from Mr. Park's face?
Why did you have to enter her in a singing contest...
and cause this mess?
That darn singing contest.
No one will ever let me hear the end of it.
How is that my fault?
It was Ga On's destiny.
If I hadn't taken her,
she would've gone there herself.
Ladies, I'm good since Ga On was found.
Please don't argue about this and head upstairs.
I apologize for worrying you.
I can't believe she ran away...
without even eating the meal prepared for her.
Never have I seen a girl that relentless before.
Unbelievable.
Mr. Park, wait.
Could we talk?
(1st place: 20,000 dollars)
I know it's a hassle to raise a child.
I'm sorry I wasn't able to stop her from going.
Please don't apologize. It wasn't your fault.
Anyway,
why are you against her having a singing career?
I'm worried this will get to her head,
and I don't like the fact she can earn money...
that is too much for a young girl to handle.
I want Ga On to have an ordinary life.
I wish for her to grow up safely in an ordinary world...
where I can easily get to her when she needs me.
That is also what I wanted.
I had two sons,
and neither of them did anything against their parents' will.
Well,
their father was scarier than a roaring tiger,
so both of them...
always did as my husband said.
Back then, I believed that to be right.
I believed that them taking the path we paved...
was the best option for them.
It's why we had them study to take over the family business...
without asking what they wanted.
But then,
my youngest son...
passed away in a car accident.
He was only...
a little over 60 at the time,
and I only realized it after his passing.
I realized...
I had never asked...
what brought him happiness in life.
Until my own son reached the age of 60,
even though...
I was his parent,
I never thought about the happiness of my child.
It was his life,
but we wanted him...
to be safe in a bubble we had created for him.
Had I known he would've been taken from me,
I would've asked.
"What brings you the most joy?"
You have no idea how much I regret that.
Ms. Chae...
That being said,
why don't you let Ga On...
do what she desires?
She'll be all right since she has a decent father like you.
Have Ga On chase her dream to her heart's content...
and let her know that she'll always have a place to come back...
when she gets tired of it.
From what I saw,
singing brings her a great deal of joy.
It is a true blessing to have what you love...
also be what you're good at.
(1st place: 20,000 dollars)
Pil Lip, clear your books.
Right, of course.
- Move your plate forward. - Got it.
Grandma, thank you for putting in the work.
What else could I have done?
Your maternal grandmother...
just had to pull her back while moving her ficus tree...
and have herself hospitalized.
Thanks to that, I was asked to step in.
Unlike me, doesn't she have a husband?
I heard that Grandpa went camping.
In this cold weather?
He'll be fine since he has an RV.
Unbelievable.
Romantic camping in an RV. It sure would be nice to be him.
Ru Bi, come out and have dinner.
Cheol Su, what's your problem?
I'm not goofing around and have a busier schedule,
so why should I accommodate your free hours instead?
Who are you talking to?
- I'm only upset... - It's her boyfriend.
because you're being selfish.
Ru Bi, hang up this second!
And you're the one...
I told you to hang up.
Cheol Su, I'll call you back.
Did you just hit me with that spatula?
Why did you hit me?
How dare you hit me when even my mom doesn't?
Do you think you're old enough to be dating a college boy?
If you knew I was cooking dinner for you,
you should've come out to at least help set the table.
You came out only when I called for you...
and wouldn't still hang up the phone.
This is exactly why your dad doesn't want to come home to you.
- Stop hitting me! - Ru Bi!
My goodness. Did you just yell at your elder?
Is this how your mother has been raising you?
Getting good grades isn't everything.
You're one to talk.
Ru Bi, please!
Judging by how you treat Aunt Hyo Sim,
I'm glad to have been born to a mom like mine.
What was that? How exactly do I treat your aunt?
You have been extorting her in the form of gaslighting.
What?
What's that gas nonsense?
Well, that's...
You've been controlling her by manipulating her psychologically.
Kids these days use the most peculiar words.
What do you mean I've been controlling or manipulating her?
You see yourself as the most pitiful person on earth.
Because Grandpa left you,
you go on and on about how sad your life is.
Let's face it.
Him leaving the family wasn't hard on just you.
Our dad suffered too having to grow up without a dad.
So did Uncle Hyo Jun, Uncle Hyo Do, and Auntie.
It wasn't just you who had it hard.
My gosh.
But you're always playing the victim...
as if you're the only one he wronged.
You threaten and bully your children...
by having memorial services for Grandpa.
Being the gentle soul that she is,
Auntie goes along with your tantrums.
Did you think we didn't know that?
Gosh, how dare you?
You've been bleeding your parents dry...
in the name of getting good grades,
and this is what you're saying?
And you've been bleeding Auntie dry!
What was that?
Being a minor and a student is my excuse.
What's yours when you're an adult with grown-up children?
You're a selfish mother.
- You only care about yourself. - What?
I already gave Auntie my two cents,
but she still hasn't come to her senses.
My goodness. How could you?
Ru Bi, that's enough.
Darn it.
Goodness me.
Is this how things are with your family?
I can't believe it.
My gosh. What the...
My head hurts.
Are you kidding me?
Thanks.
You came to see my mom at the hospital...
when you've been upset lately.
Being upset...
isn't an excuse to ignore your mom when she's been hospitalized.
Still. I'm grateful.
What is it?
Let's sit down for a bit.
We're keeping the kids waiting.
They're the reason I need this.
I don't want to go home because of my own kid.
Honey.
She may be my daughter,
but I can't stand her at the moment.
But she's your daughter.
And because of that,
you should hold back and let her have her way.
Until when?
She'll grow up once she attends college.
No.
I doubt Ru Bi will mature.
Honey.
She's more likely to get worse.
It still doesn't mean you should badmouth your own child.
She'll change. I know she can be different.
All the studying is stressing her out, that's all.
She'll be free from it once she gets into college,
and we can then sit her down for a long talk.
You know she isn't an uncontrollable brat.
She'll be more at ease then...
and will understand what we're saying. Come on, honey.
Then...
What does that make you and me?
What do you mean?
How much longer must we live like this for our kids?
Isn't it a given?
Or we shouldn't have had kids.
Gosh.
I think this just isn't right.
Honey.
Let's not put too much effort into the kids.
What?
Let's let them grow up on their own.
Let's leave them alone so they'll fend for themselves.
What if they end up lagging behind?
We can give up everything and grind our lives into raising them,
but it won't change their lives.
It won't turn a bright future bleak.
In the end, it all depends on them.
If the parents dedicate their lives,
it does make a change. Why wouldn't it?
Even more so in this day and age.
Do you think other parents do all they can...
because they don't know better?
They do it because it changes their kids' lives.
It may change their occupations.
And they might earn a little more.
But so what?
They'll spend their whole lives as selfish monsters.
And we'll have raised and released them into society.
Honey.
Why is it so hard to raise kids?
Come with me.
I'm coming, okay?
You're chairman of the great Taesan Group,
and you cowered in front of a reporter?
The media has enough power to drop a bird in the sky.
Will you act with dignity and do some mind control?
How will you go on in life with such a frail mentality?
You drain all my energy...
that I'm left with zero mind to control.
You always manage to talk back.
It wouldn't have gotten so complicated...
if they hadn't wanted Tae Min.
Let's not talk about that now.
I want to rest, so leave the room.
"Rest?"
There's no time to rest.
We must rush the kids' weddings.
Whose wedding?
Did you hurt your head?
Tae Min's wedding, of course.
And Tae Hee's next.
Did Tae Min say he'd marry the TV Live girl?
He'll never marry her.
He'll have no choice but to.
Tae Min trusts and adores you so much.
What are you getting at?
Did you say something to him?
I said...
You evil witch!
Why did you tell him that?
You're crazy!
What do you want? For us all to go down?
If you wanted to disappear, you should've died that night!
What?
This is our only option now.
You need to persuade Tae Min.
If you don't,
we all crash and burn.
(General Manager Kang Tae Ho)
(Model Contract)
(Director Kang Tae Min)
Oh, hello, Director.
Hello.
I'm here about the photoshoot.
Are you?
Thank you again for helping to get the lawsuit...
against the gym dropped.
It could've been a disaster for us.
I'd like to represent the gym and say thanks.
It's fine.
Even if you're busy,
please let me treat you to a meal.
I know you went to a lot of trouble.
- You're here. - Give me a moment.
Give me a call.
See you around.
You should've called. I'd have come downstairs.
- That's fine. - Let's go.
- Is it cold outside? - Not really.
Hello?
Okay. I'll come over now.
What did you and Tae Min talk about?
I thanked him for helping to get the lawsuit...
against the gym dropped. Why?
Just because.
Here you go.
Thank you.
Oh, right.
I typed up the contract.
Read it carefully and sign it, like before.
(Model Contract)
Shouldn't you at least treat me to a meal?
I don't have that kind of money.
Come on. How can you not buy me one meal?
I'm going to find a place.
What?
Once I get paid, I'll rent a place.
I'm going to move out.
- You will? - Mr. Kang...
Tae Ho, you were right.
I failed to separate my life...
from my family's until now.
I should start right now.
Can I visit your new place?
- That's a no. - What?
I said I'd move out, not let my boyfriend in.
Then you won't accept my housewarming gift?
- Gifts are welcome. - What?
The bigger and more expensive the better.
Before I move out,
I must spend some of my money on something.
So I'm slightly low on cash.
If possible, get me something big and expensive.
You know, like a fridge, washing machine, or cooker.
You got so brazen.
You told me to get used to accepting from others.
Thank you for supporting my moving out.
Can I say something too?
Thank you for being a shoulder...
to lean on when I had no one else.
I called you again...
because I really thought we should settle this issue for good now.
Though I just followed orders,
I feel a pang of guilt for covering it up like that.
The car that caused the accident that night.
Did you identify it?
It was a remote area with no traffic or security cameras.
However,
we identified a car that followed...
Kang Jun Bum's car through...
the Daegwallyeong Pass tollgate.
It belonged to Kang Jin Bum, the current Taesan chairman.
At the time, Kang Jin Bum...
was at the top of our suspect list.
Tae Hee, I ran your bath.
Why are you so down?
Is it because of the man we met?
Shall I teach him a lesson?
- Mister. - Yes?
You said you loved me.
Yes.
Do you really mean it?
Do you think I'm the kind of man who plays with a woman's heart?
Then let's get married.
What?
You said you loved me.
So let's get married.
Well...I'd be happy to.
But why?
Just answer me.
Do you want to marry me or not?
Of course, I do.
I'd like to marry you right away if I could.
Good.
Then go buy a cake.
For what?
We need a wedding cake to get married.
Just go out and buy one.
What's this?
While you were out to get a cake,
I found a marriage declaration sample and printed it out.
I made a few changes, so you can just read it out loud.
Go ahead and do it. Don't you want to get married?
Okay. I will.
I, Lee Hyo Do, take you, Kang Tae Hee,
to be my lawfully wedded wife.
I promise to cherish, love, and be devoted to you...
in sickness and in health, as long as we both shall live.
I'm thankful to the world that allowed me to meet you,
and I'll always try my best to make you happy...
like your servant.
I, Kang Tae Hee, take you, Lee Hyo Do,
to be my lawfully wedded husband.
I'll make you feel like you're lucky to have a wife like me.
I will overcome any adversities and hardships...
and work hard to make our business,
Tae Hee's Eggs, continue to thrive.
All right. You may kiss me now.
What?
Just do it.
The groom is supposed to kiss the bride.
(Rainbow Studio Apartments)
What kind of audition takes all day?
Why isn't she calling me?
Gosh.
Darn it. I knew it.
She must've failed again.
She must be out boozing after failing the audition.
She will talk nonsense and throw up drunk again tonight.
It's just my luck, having a neighbor like her.
Director!
What? She's sober.
What?
What are you doing?
Thank you, Director!
Did you decide to go back to Hwang and Park?
Are you grateful that I made you realize your place?
You'll live at ease once you go back to Hwang and Park.
Come on! I passed!
Pass what?
I passed the audition!
I got to play Kwon Ji Soo,
the ex-girlfriend in the drama, "Bubbling with Love."
Really?
Thank you so much, Director!
Gosh, stop hugging me.
Why are you doing this?
Gosh. I get it.
It's unbelievable.
Yes, Mom.
I got a part in a drama.
I'm serious.
I will succeed as an actress.
Why did you turn off the light?
It's nothing.
Come on, Mom. Don't be like that again.
This is good news. Why do you bring up the lawyer thing again?
Anyway, make sure to watch it. Okay.
Tell Dad about it. All right.
Bye.
Are you happy?
Of course, I am.
I finally made it three years after I left Hwang and Park.
You got the part when you were about to starve to death, right?
What a mean thing to say.
Do you have to say that on a happy day like this?
By the way, why did you turn off the light?
It creates a nice ambience.
- Just come and sit. - Gosh.
Hey, you should drink a beverage.
You can't drink when you study.
Come on. Is it fun to drink alone?
Yes. I often drink alone.
All right. Cheers.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
What a big drinker.
By the way, your mom doesn't want you to be an actress?
No. My ex-boyfriend, mom, and dad were all against it.
I understand.
But I worked really hard at Hwang and Park...
and got my parents a new apartment.
You're a good daughter.
I thought I'd feel better that way.
My parents lived in difficult circumstances.
So my mom had always told me that I had to succeed...
since I was little.
I've heard it more than enough.
My dad lost his job during the IMF crisis,
so his only hope was me, his smart daughter.
I understand the pressure.
Do you know why I passed the bar exam right away?
I didn't have a second chance...
like you do now.
So I devoted myself to studying and passed the exam right away.
Are you saying I'm not trying my best to study?
Hyo Jun, I bet you were brought up with a lot of love.
What are you trying to say?
When I first met you, I thought...
you'd been brought up with a lot of love and expectations.
The fact that your family still supports you says everything.
Maybe that's why you're kind of selfish.
You know that, right?
How could you say that to the one who helped you pass the audition?
That's all the more reason why I'm saying this.
You helped me work on my vocalization, pronunciation,
and expression of emotions.
And I got the part thanks to you.
Now it's your turn to pass the exam.
When you have a hard time focusing on your studies,
you should think about this.
Thanks to whom do you think you can stay where you are now?
Whose sacrifice do you think makes you focus on your studies?
And do you really deserve all that?
Then it will make you come to your senses.
And it will make you study with your teeth set.
I want you to try that.
I guess I'm drunk. Why am I saying all this?
Anyway, let's just drink...
to the first step of my acting career tonight.
Here. I love you, Director.
Why did you take out a loan again?
You promised me you wouldn't.
I never asked you to pay it back for me.
I'll pay it back this time around, so don't worry.
Move out instead.
I'm sorry to say this.
I'll pay you back once I get better and start working again.
So can you give him some money?
Then have the other drumstick.
What about me, Mom?
I'll make you some porridge with the broth.
Wait and eat that.
Other women's daughters make lots of money...
and give some to their moms...
I worked so hard to save up that money.
You were going to drain the account to help your brother out.
Honestly, it doesn't change anything.
Is that what siblings are like?
If you want to be so selfish,
I'll have you guys removed from our family register.
And I'll live thinking I don't have any children.
You're the head of our family.
Let Mother take care of her own future.
I'm already upset that we can't hire Ru Bi enough tutors.
All you care about is being a good son.
If that's what you want, be a professional...
who can afford to support everyone.
If you want to be on your high horse just because you make some money,
just take it with you.
- What should we do? - Hyo Jun. Are you okay?
Can you do something?
Up until now, whenever something happened,
you were able to resolve it.
You're dead meat, Hyo Do.
Hey!
You!
- Get ready to roll. - Yes, boss.
I'll pay it back.
I'll pay it back,
so please don't hurt my mom or my brothers.
I read in a book that there are a lot of people like you.
Those who are codependent.
Caring about someone is something to be happy about.
It makes him happy,
and it makes you happy as well.
I enjoyed having drinks with you as well as having meals...
and tteokbokki.
Just keep eating.
I'll get you food like a swallow feeding its baby.
- A swallow? - Yes, a swallow.
Don't be like that...
and love yourself a little more.
Someone this beautiful...
You've got to be kidding me.
I can't believe I was patronized by my own granddaughter.
Is that little brat for real?
Why are you just getting home...
when your shift ended ages ago?
What's with that face?
Mom.
I have something to tell you.
What?
Mom, I'm going to move out.
What?
You'll do what?
I'm going to find my own place to live.
I'm moving out.
(Live Your Own Life)
I can't live like this anymore.
I'll soon find my own place to live, so know that.
- What? - Hyo Sim...
is going to move out.
Let Hyo Sim move out.
I'm against it too.
I blame this darn house.
It's natural...
for a child to move out and make a nest of their own.
Don't feel guilty about it.
On the night of the Daegwallyeong Pass incident,
did you follow Tae Ho's father in your car?
Let's do it. The wedding you so badly want.
What is the meaning of this wedding?
I know you don't have romantic feelings for Ms. Choi.
I heard the news. Congratulations.
I'm sorry. I wish you well.
