(Episode 47)
Why is she staring at me?
Did she figure out who I am?
Hello, I'm Kang Suk Joon.
I'm Oh Pil Jeong.
Ms. Oh.
Yes?
Let's eat.
Okay.
Does it not taste good?
No, it's not that. I just don't eat a lot.
What a liar.
She eats bibimbap in a huge bowl...
and stuffs it in her mouth.
I heard you wanted to meet me.
Yes. Thank you for helping us sign a deal with Choi Woo Mi...
and helping us with the one point golf lesson.
I only did it for Woo Mi.
But I'm glad it ended up helping the company as well.
I heard you used to be a caddie.
What do you do now?
I guess Min Cheol didn't tell you.
I'm currently a middle school PE teacher.
You're a teacher?
You have an amazing job.
You think that's amazing?
Yes.
Then why don't you support her dream instead?
She won't listen to me.
No, not as Kim Min Cheol.
Support her dream as Director Kang Suk Joon.
What?
Tell her you want to meet up so you could thank her for her help.
Then tell her that you think teachers are amazing...
and that she shouldn't give up on becoming a full-time teacher.
Tell her that's what she should do as a fabulous woman.
What if she still decides to give up on her dream...
and marry that guy?
Then there's nothing you can do.
You no longer need to feel sorry about her.
But what if she recognizes me?
You need to make sure...
you put on a great act.
Do you know when I was first impressed...
by a woman?
What?
It was during PE class when I was in eighth grade.
We were heading back to class after playing volleyball,
and I suddenly smelled the scent of sweat...
coming from our PE teacher.
She wiped the sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand,
and that somehow seemed very attractive to me.
And that's when...
I started liking my PE teacher.
Now that I know you're a PE teacher,
I can already imagine you teaching at school.
I can imagine you wearing a sweatsuit...
and running around the schoolyard...
covered in dust and sweat.
But I'm just a short-term teacher.
I don't know when I might get fired.
Then I'm guessing your dream is to become a full-time teacher.
Yes.
I hope you succeed in achieving your dream.
I heard your kids came to see me at work.
I finally understand...
why they wanted me to meet their mother.
It's probably because you're a mother with a dream.
Can we meet again...
if I become a full-time teacher?
Of course.
You would've gotten the job thanks to my support,
so you can treat me to a meal.
- Let's eat. - Okay.
Ms. Oh.
Good luck.
I hope you see great results.
Thank you.
Isn't that Suk Joon?
What's that on his face?
Is that Oh Pil Jeong, the owner of the house in Seogye-dong?
By the way, seven years ago...
Never mind. I'll tell you when we meet again...
after I become a full-time teacher.
I hope that was enough.
Suk Joon?
Yes.
I'm sure it was Oh Pil Jeong.
Why did he dress up...
like how he used to look seven years ago?
We'll know once we ask him.
You wanted to see me?
I saw you meeting the owner of the house in Seogye-dong...
dressed up like someone else.
It was you, right?
What are you up to these days?
Dad told me to thank her...
for helping us sign a deal with Choi Woo Mi. That's why I met her.
Then why did you wear glasses and a mustache?
If I didn't dress up, she would've recognized me.
If you wanted to thank her, you could've sent Ms. Lee...
or someone else instead.
I also needed to talk to her about something else.
What's that?
It has nothing to do with you.
Mr. Ha.
Yes, Ms. Lee?
My mother-in-law and Suk Hwan are very worried...
about Director Kang who's currently living in Seogye-dong.
I know he went there to get them to settle,
but I was wondering if there's another reason.
I'm also family,
so I'd like to help them with whatever they're worried about.
I know you're family, but I can't tell you anything...
without their permission.
Come in.
Hey, Eun Ju.
Here's the list of golf courses you asked for.
We left out the public golf courses.
Yes, we need to start with membership-based golf courses.
How long has Mr. Ha been working for you?
It's been about eight years.
He doesn't talk about his personal life. He's very quiet.
That's why I trust him.
Isn't he married?
No, I don't think so.
He was adopted by an American family when he was little,
and after he turned 20,
he came back to Korea to look for his parents.
Why are you so curious about Mr. Ha all of a sudden?
I want to know what kind of guy he is...
so that I know how to behave when I'm around him.
He just takes care of the miscellaneous stuff...
for both me and my mom.
You can treat him comfortably.
Okay.
It's okay. I'll do it.
Wipe your hand with this.
Cheer up.
Then I'm guessing your dream is to become a full-time teacher.
Yes.
I hope you succeed in achieving your dream.
Pil Jeong, what are you doing?
I'll be right out.
Did you meet Director Kang?
- How was he? - Was he handsome?
Wait. I have something to say to you first.
I decided not to marry Mr. Ha.
Mom.
Min Ho. Min Ji.
Can you wait until the competition is over?
Once I become a full-time teacher,
I'll go on blind dates again.
Why can't you ask Mr. Ha to wait for you until then?
He doesn't want her to teach.
He told her to quit her job.
- Really? - Yes.
But I really enjoy teaching. It makes me happy.
My dream is to become a full-time teacher...
so I can continue to teach at school.
Today, Director Kang told me...
that he hopes I get to achieve my dream.
- He said that? - Yes.
That gave me a lot of courage.
If you guys also root for me,
I'll do my best to become a full-time teacher.
What did that director say?
I just don't want to regret it.
I don't want to end up blaming the kids...
for not having achieved my dream.
What if you don't get the full-time job?
I would've done my best, so I won't regret it.
And I'll go ahead and marry the guy you guys want me to marry.
Did you meet Director Kang?
Yes. I'm glad you didn't show up.
What?
If I knew he was Director Kang,
I would've met him a lot earlier.
What do you mean?
He wished me good luck on getting the full-time job.
And that gave me so much courage.
You never even listened to me when I told you the same thing.
You've never been in love with a PE teacher...
who was covered in sweat.
Why does she look so happy? She was also like this earlier.
No way.
Do you know that Director Kang doesn't ever plan to get married?
- If you're interested... - Don't worry.
I'm only going to focus on the competition from now on.
- Hey. - What did Ms. Oh say?
It looks like she was really touched.
She's only going to focus...
on winning an award from now on.
That's great.
I guess you really made things up to make it sound nice.
"Make things up"?
I meant every word I said.
What did you talk about with your mother?
We talked about Suk Joon.
We were wondering if he's interested in Oh Pil Jeong.
No, he's not.
She's going to marry the guy she's seeing right now.
How do you know that?
Well, she turned out to be a PE teacher at my mom's school.
I found out at Styling Class.
I see.
Why didn't you tell me?
It's her personal life, so I didn't think you'd be interested.
I guess you're right.
Since we're on the subject,
let's promise not to lie to each other.
Are you sure you're not hiding anything from me?
To be honest, I dated a lot of women before I met you.
But now, I won't ever show interest in anyone else other than you.
What about you? Have you ever dated anyone before we got married?
No.
Really?
I thought you didn't show up on our blind date seven years ago...
because you were dating someone back then.
That's not true.
I'm glad to hear that.
Now, you're my woman.
You seem very happy...
after having met the director.
Really?
I've always wanted to meet him.
Cheer up.
I want to ask him why he cried...
as he gave me the handkerchief that day.
I was really glad when you called and asked me to meet.
When should we get married?
You're so much better than me.
And thank you for being so kind to my kids.
There's no need for you to feel pressured.
But I can't marry you, Mr. Ha.
What?
You told me you'll protect me...
like a flower in a greenhouse.
But I realized that I've always been a wild flower.
Wild flowers...
are used to the rain and snow.
And they don't belong in the greenhouse.
So I want to continue living as a wild flower.
Don't you care about your kids?
My kids are also used to living as wild flowers.
This is a great opportunity for you.
You'll regret it.
Even if I do,
it's okay.
(Carrot Real Estate Office)
I didn't know the deposit would cost so much.
We should find somewhere cheaper.
I envy people with parents who own buildings.
Then they won't have to pay the monthly rent.
You don't know what you're talking about.
Some people expect their kids to pay the monthly rent.
- Are you serious? - Yes.
I need to check something. I'll call you later.
Your mom isn't getting married?
No, she wants to become a full-time teacher first.
Then she'll start going on blind dates again.
Why is it so hard to get a dad?
If your mom becomes a full-time teacher,
she might end up with someone better.
So wait until she gets the full-time job.
Stop whining like a little kid.
I'm not a little kid.
You're smaller than me, and I beat you in arm wrestling.
That's because you caught me off guard.
I bet I'll beat you this time.
Are you sure? Then how about we try it again?
Sure. But if I win,
stop calling me a kid and start treating me like a guy.
Okay.
Ready, go.
I won.
What have you done?
From now on, I'm a guy, not a little kid.
I can beat everyone else as well.
She's a PE teacher at Daehan Middle School?
She's apparently going to marry her blind date,
so that means there's nothing going on between her and Suk Joon.
Gosh, I thought we had something.
How are things going with Suk Joon trying to find Kim Bok Soon's son?
I haven't heard any updates, so I'm guessing he's still lost.
If Suk Joon can't find his mom,
we should make her find him.
How?
We just need to help her out a little.
This is amazing.
I want to come here every day after practice.
I should ask my dad to buy me one.
Feel free to come after practice.
I'll let you use it for free until the competition.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Thanks.
You met Director Kang seven years ago?
Yes, but I don't think he recognized me.
Did you recognize him the moment you saw him?
Yes. It was right after Min Ho's dad died.
We got kicked out of our house,
and I was working at a restaurant.
And when he gave me his handkerchief and told me to cheer up,
it really consoled me.
I see.
He told me that he hopes I get the full-time job.
And when he said that,
I suddenly became confident about becoming a full-time teacher.
I know your kids are important,
but your life is just as important as well.
Someone told me...
that a mother needs to be happy for the kids to be happy.
Now that your kids decided to give you some time,
give it your best shot.
Thanks.
I'm on my way home after I dropped by the golf course in Incheon.
Okay, I'll see you tomorrow.
Mr. Kim.
Why are you riding all by yourself? You could've gotten hurt.
- Are you here alone? - I came with my grandma.
She went to buy a drink.
I see.
Let's see you ride your bike. I'll hold it from behind.
Hold on tight.
Let's go.
There.
Okay.
Mr. Kim, I'm good, aren't I?
Yes, you are.
Is your dad teaching you how to ride a bike?
Your daughter is so cute.
What?
Have fun with your dad.
Why didn't you tell her that I'm not your dad?
Why didn't you tell her that I'm not your daughter?
Well...
- Let's go home. - No, I want to keep riding.
Okay. There.
Where does she get all that energy from?
Why did you want to see me?
I heard you guys practice until late.
Aren't the kids upset about that?
No, they're fine.
Really?
I thought Ms. Oh is going to get married.
Shouldn't she be going on dates?
If she stays until late for practice,
how is she going to get ready for her wedding?
She's not getting married.
What?
She's not getting married?
No, she's going to focus on winning the competition...
so that she can become a full-time teacher.
Min Ho is really disappointed.
What if she doesn't become a full-time teacher?
She should know better.
Does she think it's easy to get remarried with two kids?
She will never be able to get married...
if she doesn't marry the guy she's seeing.
Why would you say that?
Do you think it's easy to find someone to marry?
She decided not to marry him, so I guess they're not meant to be.
Why are you guys so interested in Ms. Oh's marriage?
What?
Min Ji.
My goodness, she's burning. Min Ji, wake up.
Let's see.
What's up?
Min Ji has a fever. I'm going to take her to the hospital.
Sorry.
- Let me carry her. - No, it's okay.
I feel like you might drop her. Come on.
- Just a second, Min Ji. - Come on.
1, 2, 3.
There.
What did the doctor say?
She doesn't have a bad cold,
so we can take her home after she gets her IV shot.
She was fine this afternoon when she was riding her bike.
Kids often get sick as they grow up.
You can go home now.
Will you be okay all by yourself?
Yes, of course. I've been through all this with Min Ho.
Thank you.
(Hyeju Hospital)
Mr. Kim.
Yes?
Min Ji, are you up? How do you feel?
I'm okay.
You're still here.
It looks like she's almost done, so let's go home together.
That's not necessary. You can go home first.
I want to go home with Mr. Kim.
Okay.
I carried you here, so I'll carry you back home.
Okay.
I can carry her.
She wants me to carry her.
I like your smell, Mr. Kim.
Thank you.
I think it's because she grew up without a dad.
She acts like a baby...
whenever she's with a guy who's old enough to be her dad.
Dad.
You should quickly get married for Min Ji's sake.
We're having lunch with your friends today at 12 p.m., right?
Yes, they all told me you looked handsome at our wedding.
Really? I guess I should treat them to something nice today.
I'll meet you at the restaurant...
after I'm done with a meeting.
- Okay. - Okay, let's go.
Come on.
We're going to eat something nice thanks to Eun Ju.
She married such a great husband. I envy her.
Eun Ju actually wanted to marry her husband's brother,
Kang Suk Joon.
- Really? - Yes.
Back when we were in England,
I told her he's the second son of LX Group's chairman.
And she started hitting on him.
Then why did she marry his brother?
I asked her at the wedding,
but she acted like she was never interested in him.
You have no idea how cunning she is.
My gosh, the cunning ones always get married to the best guys.
Exactly.
(Mom Has an Affair)
Your husband is a bit late.
What's the matter with you?
- How far did you go with her? - What are you talking about?
Don't tell my brother the truth no matter how much he pressures you.
Did you fight with someone?
Let me apply it for you, Mr. Kim.
Did you do what I told you to do?
- It's probably there by now. - Thank you, ma'am.
Did Kang Suk Joon send those boxes?
Why does he care so much about Oh Pil Jeong?
Let her pay little at first.
And once the business does well, you can ask her to pay more.
Have we met before?
