(Hate to Love You)
You must be freezing. Let's go in.
Yes. Your lips are purple too.
- Oh, really? Let's go in. - Yes.
Isn't that Dad?
Who is that woman?
Gosh, it's so warm here.
My gosh, it looks like you guys had a great time.
- Both of you seem very happy. - Yes.
Thanks to you, we had a great time.
Mr. Jung, can I step out since you're here now?
Of course. By all means.
You came with me even if it's very far. Thank you so much, Mr. Jung.
My gosh, don't mention it.
Your life story is very sad.
Thinking about it still makes me sad.
I did struggle financially.
I'll make sure you won't have to cry until the day you die.
My gosh, you're making me blush.
You went a bit too far with that one.
It's not like only young people have emotions.
We should say things like that too.
Gosh, you sure have a way with words.
Well, Mr. Jung. There's...
one more thing I need to tell you.
You can tell me anything.
There's another reason why I'm rushing to turn my life around...
at this old age.
What's the reason?
The kids, Eun Jo and Myung Jo.
What about them?
I wasn't able to fix the family register...
while living with their dad.
So I'm still the only one on my family register.
Oh, gosh.
Well, after the kids' dad passed away,
I tried to register the kids as my family,
but I couldn't do it because of the law.
I understand.
Regardless of their age,
unmarried women are not allowed to register a child as their family.
Oh, you knew that too.
Right. Of course. There's nothing you don't know about as I expected.
I'm embarrassed. Please don't say that.
That's why my dream is to register my marriage...
so I can...
register Myung Jo and Eun Jo as my family.
What do you think?
Oh, yes. I was worried she might refuse to register our marriage.
You must be concerned about your own children.
You need some time to think about it, right?
Not at all. For your children,
we should register our marriage as soon as possible.
My goodness. Mr. Jung.
Oh, no. I made a mess.
Please leave it.
Let me clean this up.
- I'm sorry. - That's okay.
You must be tired from the trip. Please go back home now.
That's okay. I should see you off.
You don't have to.
I'll be home soon, so please get some rest now.
Then go home safely. I won't walk you out.
Yes, Mr. Jung.
- I'll call you later then. - Okay.
- See you later. - See you.
All right. Hang on.
Would this be enough?
Considering the thickness of my finger,
would this be her ring size?
What brings you here? Are you here to see me?
Was she the one?
What are you talking about?
Was the lady you said you were going to marry...
the owner of the pawnshop?
Did you see her?
Why didn't you say hello if you saw her?
Is that true?
What's wrong?
Why her?
Do you even know who she is?
Why? Do you not like her?
Everyone knows the shrew of Geumdong Market.
And Gil Eun Jo...
Why did you choose her out of everyone?
What you see is not everything.
She's acquainted with Mom. She knows Bu Sik's mother too.
I really don't think this is right.
In Woo, I told you not to judge others by their appearance.
Besides, it doesn't matter whether your mom knows her or not.
Is she that rich?
How rich is she?
I thought you were on my side.
I'm disappointed.
I'm disappointed too.
I won't tell Mom or anyone else.
So please reconsider your marriage.
I'm begging you.
She's trying to rain on my parade.
What's the matter with her?
You bring bad luck.
Things started going downhill for us when you were born.
We had to sell the lands we had left and even got scammed.
It's not like I chose to be born.
How could she say such a thing as an elder?
(Contact list, Hong Rock)
(Bu Sik)
Why won't she pick up? Did something happen?
The person you have reached is not available. Please leave a message...
Should I go see Eun Jo?
Bu Sik.
I'm relieved.
I meant to wait until you came, but you came early.
You didn't know when I'd be back.
Do you have something to tell me?
Why is it so difficult to say?
It's about my dad.
What about him?
Not so long ago,
I heard that he met someone.
However, I can't give him my blessings.
Why is that?
She's not good enough for him.
Aside from that, I don't want to be involved with her family.
Everybody's parents are getting remarried lately.
Judging from what you said, you must have known her family for a while.
I just happened to know her family.
Whatever happened, my dad used to teach at a college.
Even if she is very wealthy...
This isn't right. He can't do this.
Shouldn't there be a reason he chose a woman like her?
Didn't your dad tell you that?
He kept saying that In Jung and I will benefit from his marriage.
He said he will be a good dad, which he never was.
He asked me to trust him.
That doesn't sound so bad. What's the problem?
Do you think so?
She won't be your stepmom anyway.
She'll only be your dad's wife.
That's true.
There's no reason for us to meet.
Then accept her.
The way I see it, it looks like he wants you and In Jung...
to benefit from it financially.
Shouldn't you welcome the idea instead of being against it?
In Woo's dad's girlfriend didn't come back since then, right?
She's probably too scared of my hair trimmer to come back.
Could she have come here because she knew you're his ex-wife?
I said I'm not interested. Why do you keep bringing that up?
It's because I heard a very interesting story from Bu Sik.
What story?
- I'm home. - Hi.
It's about some people...
who won the lottery after their parents got remarried.
You can just buy a lottery ticket.
What does remarriage have to do with winning one?
It was a metaphor. They didn't win the lottery.
A man got remarried to a rich woman.
As she died before him, he and his children...
from his previous marriage inherited all her wealth.
They earned so much without making any effort.
Did she have no children?
Of course she had children. That's the problem.
They filed a lawsuit because wrong people inherited from their mom,
and Bu Sik is working on that case.
Can such a thing happen in the real world?
It's even more dramatic than dramas.
That's right.
I made fried rice for dinner, so help yourself.
Mom, wait.
What? Make it quick. A customer is waiting downstairs.
About Ms. Kim, the owner of the pawnshop.
What about her?
I heard she's rich. How rich is she?
I'm not sure. It's not like I checked her bank account.
But rumor has it that her wealth is worth tens of millions of dollars.
That much?
What's the point of talking about it? It's a pie in the sky to us.
Why did you ask about her wealth?
It's just that so many people say that she's a millionaire.
To be honest, she doesn't look rich.
She's tacky and doesn't have a good eye for beauty.
She's also rough.
Being tacky isn't a problem when she has that much money.
It's not that she can't afford things. She chose to save money.
Well... I heard she has children too.
She's living with her ex-husband's children.
A daughter and a son around your age.
Is her son the medical student you tried to set In Jung up with?
That's right. He would be a good match for her.
But In Jung hates the idea.
I still wish things had gone well between them.
Haeng Ja doesn't care about others, but always dotes on the kids.
She's much better than any moms who raise their own kids.
She's much better indeed.
I'm leaving now.
I shouldn't go in, right?
I'm scared to bother Suk Pyo these days.
He looks tired, but I don't think he's going through anything serious.
I hope he doesn't pushes himself too much.
By the way, how about you...
give up your one-sided love for Suk Pyo now?
How can a mom stop loving her child?
That's how I feel...
even though I don't know what he's thinking.
It looks like he's starting to talk about his mom.
Wouldn't it be okay for us to tell him about it now?
No way.
If we don't approach it carefully, we'll end up ruining everything.
I'll tell him after completely reconciling with Mom, okay?
I think relationships are the hardest things in life.
Are you realizing that just now?
It sounds like you're finally maturing up.
When I received this, I dreamed of being a chancellor of a university.
No, the Minister of Education.
I had such big dreams.
I'll be able to buy a humble ring if I sell this, right?
It looks like he wants you and In Jung to benefit from it financially.
Shouldn't you welcome the idea instead of being against it?
Well, it's not like I've seen what's in her bank account,
but rumors say that she has tens of millions of dollars.
No matter what anyone says, you and In Jung are my family.
I'll make up...
for the hardships you went through and the tears you've shed until now.
I'll let you live with pride and confidence.
So please...
trust me just this once.
This may be a new opportunity for me.
Not just me. You too, In Jung.
Where is it?
What are you doing in my room now?
I was looking for nail polishes.
My nails look so bad now.
What color?
Wouldn't pink be the best?
Next time, just ask me.
It looked like you were going through my stuff. I don't like it.
Oh, let me use your car today. I have somewhere to go.
It looks like you're upset from the few things I said to you yesterday.
You didn't just say a few things.
It's still early in the day. Why are you so cranky already?
Tell me if you need anything else.
I don't need anything else.
And stop sulking, okay?
We'll live together for a while, so I want to say what I need to say.
Say what?
You're the one who started it, Aunt.
Yes, I know that.
So next time, I'll let you start.
I...
I've been able to do pretty much everything I wanted to do,
but I've always been lonely...
because Myung Jo is the only family I have.
What are you talking about?
You have Haeng Ja, who'd do anything for you.
But she's not my biological family.
We live together now, but if we end up parting ways, that will be it.
That is true.
You're different though.
You're my aunt,
a relative who will help if anything happens to me or Myung Jo.
Now, I know why you hate me,
but I'm not responsible for it,
and it's all in the past anyway.
I don't want to hear that our family went bankrupt because of me again.
"A relative"?
That would be the case if you were my brother's daughter,
and I wouldn't be this torn.
I just can't like you. What do you want me to do? Gosh, seriously.
Bu Sik will try so hard to make me feel better,
and Hong Suk...
What will Hong Rock say?
Gosh.
Why did you want to see me?
I heard that there will be an open bidding for the beauty center.
That's right. Wasn't that the plan from the beginning?
That was then.
Do I really have to hear it through our employees?
I was going to tell you.
I'm happy to return to the head office because it's doing well,
but shouldn't I be the first to know about everything?
It was decided at the board meeting last week.
I attended it too.
You went to the board meeting?
But Chief Director Goo...
I mean, Choong Seo. He didn't say anything.
Isn't he my proxy anyway?
I attended it myself, so he didn't need to be there.
By any chance, are you...
I'll get back to work if you're done.
I was moving products to the car.
You're not thinking of starting a new business project, are you?
You can't. It's still too early.
I'll decide what to do.
See? My hunch was right.
You can't. That card is too risky at the moment.
You may lose your position as the CEO.
The group's future depends on this.
Stay out of it.
When I return to the head office,
promote me to an executive director position.
I totally deserve it.
If you don't, I'll get the board members to vote.
My gosh.
A glass of water with ice, please. Please make it as cold as possible.
Here.
It's lukewarm.
I was worried that you might get sick if you drink ice water now.
By the way, why are you so angry?
Then I'll wait until you tell me.
I have a lot of time.
I can see that it's not the right path, but he keeps insisting it is.
He says that he has to take the path even though I advised him not to.
What should I do?
He probably thinks that it is the right path.
I guess that's why he wants to take it.
This is hard.
This is not right.
Everyone will be doomed if things pan out like this.
"Doomed"?
I should be the bad person from now on.
It breaks my heart, but I have no choice.
Gosh.
Slow down. Drink it slowly. Goodness.
- Yes, come in. - Sure.
- It's your first time here, right? - Yes.
This is my office.
It's very cozy and nice.
I've always wanted my own office.
This space is perfect for an office.
Sorry, I didn't mean that we should turn this into my office.
- Please have a seat. - Okay.
- Put it down here. - Okay.
Say hello. This is Mr. Jung.
- Oh, right. Here. - Thank you.
Hello, I'm Min Yang Ah.
It's nice to meet you too.
Have some tea.
The house I'm living in now...
is quite old and small.
I've been living there all this time because I'm used to the house...
and there haven't been any problems,
but it'll be too small when my family becomes bigger.
I don't care. The house isn't important.
Well, that's what you think.
Isn't a smaller house better because you can be closer with your family?
And I need time to become closer to Eun Jo and Myung Jo too.
Well, that's true, but...
Okay. All right. Then I'll figure out...
about what to do with the house.
Okay.
Oh. Aren't you Mr. Jung from the cafe?
Oh, I haven't been able to introduce her to you.
- Well, this is my kids' aunt. - Aunt...
Oh, if she's their aunt...
I'm Haeng Ja's sister-in-law,
which means that she's my sister-in-law as well.
I see.
- Ms. Kim. - Yes.
- Could you spare a moment? - What? Okay.
- Please excuse me. - Okay.
You came to the cafe several times. Why didn't you tell me before?
That you're Ms. Kim's sister-in-law.
Didn't you notice it?
I thought you already knew.
There's no way.
Would that be true?
Eun Jo, it's been a while.
I'm here for a facial massage. Would it be okay?
I didn't make an appointment.
Give me a moment.
If you can wait for 20 minutes, you can get the service.
I'll wait then.
- Manager Gong. - Yes?
This should be delivered to Mr. Hong Suk, right?
- Yes. - I see.
Let me think. Whom should I ask...
Where is Suk now?
I'll deliver this to him.
But you're here for a facial massage.
I forgot that I have plans.
I'll give it to him on my way out.
Will you do that?
Well, he must be in the parking lot or the storage room.
Okay.
She hasn't shown up for a while. Is she up to something again?
Why are you leaving?
I was on my way back for the facial massage.
- Were you going to serve me? - Yes.
Are you leaving because you don't like me by any chance?
No.
Something came up. I'll come back later.
A rich girl sure is different.
You book a massage at this hour on a weekday.
I always work at this hour.
I'm just envious.
I would be living a life like yours if I had rich parents too.
I hope you'll be born like me in your next life.
Don't you think that's too harsh?
Is hoping you'll be born in a rich family in your next life harsh?
I could get rich in my present life.
Why do I have to wait until my next life?
In Woo.
Yes, Eun Jo?
Did you eat something bad or what?
You've been acting so weird lately.
Someone told me that sadness and gladness...
succeed each other.
I mean, I won't necessarily work as an intern at the beauty center...
and love someone who doesn't love me back for the rest of my life.
She seems different somehow. What is it?
Confidence?
Right. She's full of confidence.
Did she win the lottery or something?
I was asked to give you this at the beauty center.
- Thank you. - I...
I volunteered to come here to see you.
You only said what you had to say last time.
You have to hear me out this time.
It was hard for me to decide to come to see you.
I understand.
I had a lot to say to you.
I wanted to make one thing clear.
I didn't do anything out of pity.
I never pitied you.
Of course I worried about you at first because you were suffering,
but I wasn't protecting you like you said...
It wasn't like that.
What else was it?
If I reflect on that time,
I think...
I liked you.
For a while. Just a little while.
I'm sorry.
For what?
What are you sorry for?
You never said anything like that.
Anyway, I've said everything I had to say.
I wanted you to know that I didn't pity you.
I thought I would feel comfortable only then.
I don't think that way.
Okay then.
We won't need to see each other anymore.
Take care.
I'm going through a hard time, so I want to hold onto you.
But I'm sorry I can't do that.
It's so cold.
I'm glad that the business is going well,
but I'm sad that I'm too busy to meet my boyfriend.
You need to earn as much money as you can to marry him.
That's true, but Bu Sik is becoming quite successful.
It seems like we can pay off our debts soon.
We would be better off if we didn't pay the interest.
But being a lawyer is a good job as I expected.
Here she goes again.
You must be happy. Congratulations.
Is saying "Congratulations" popular these days?
Or are you trying to make it popular?
You say that every single day.
I think I should pack lunch for Bu Sik.
We all work to eat. Is he too busy to eat?
Apparently, yes. It looks like he only has a quick bite for lunch.
- Goodness. - Guys, did you hear the rumor?
- What? - What rumor?
They say something must be going on with Haeng Ja.
- What do you mean? - Is she dating someone or what?
No way.
She would think it's a waste of money.
I'm not sure, but the rumors say she seems to have a boyfriend.
- Really? - Really?
This is unbelievable.
What do you mean you're not sure?
Who else would know?
Right. Exactly.
Forget it. You'll be in trouble if you mess with Haeng Ja.
I just imagined Haeng Ja dating a man.
But we decided not to buy a ring.
I wanted to. Try it on.
My goodness.
It looks good on me.
Did I measure the wrong finger?
It looks pretty.
Look at the humble ring...
on the finger of the mighty Kim Haeng Ja of Geumdong Market.
Do you really want to do that?
Are you playing house at your age or something?
A diamond ring wouldn't look good on my finger.
Whatever.
But why is Eun Jo out all day long?
I don't know.
You didn't upset her again, did you?
Do you think I'm a shrew? You, Haeng Ja, are the shrew.
It's you, not me.
Listen. Never call my name like that again.
You don't have time to complain how I call your name.
What else should I do now?
You must find a house to live in.
You're not thinking of starting your marriage in this tiny house...
with me and the kids, are you?
Dad.
Haeng Ja is getting married.
You already know about it, right?
You must've sent him to her.
But today, I'm here to talk about me.
I need your permission on something.
Even if I do whatever I want to do,
you'll support my decision, right?
What's going on? Why is everyone coming into my room together?
What's up? Is there something you guys want to say to me?
Eun Jo does.
Where on earth have you been until now?
You said you have something to say.
Haeng Ja.
Go ahead.
It looks like...
you're about to read the Declaration of Independence aloud.
"Independence"? Are you moving out?
Congratulations on getting married, Haeng Ja. I mean it.
Don't go overboard.
Let me know when your wedding will be...
so that I can start planning too.
Start planning for what?
Do you want to plan a double wedding or what?
Eun Jo.
I want to get married before you do.
