Can't you do your job better?
Does it make sense to you...
that you still don't know who Ms. Kang is seeing?
What Dan Soo said was very strange.
What Ji Na said too.
Given how Ms. Kang joined you for dinner today,
I am sure she isn't seeing anyone else, ma'am.
Stop guessing.
Bring me some evidence.
Solid evidence.
Can't you do your job better?
If you can't, just quit!
I apologize, ma'am.
What a mess.
Ms. Eom must be so upset.
(Pregnancy Journal, Maeng Gong Hee)
"Pregnancy Journal, Maeng Gong Hee."
Pregnancy.
If I tell Mom this amid all this chaos,
she might collapse.
I should keep this to myself for the time being.
No...
Don't go.
Don't go!
Tonight,
I don't see a single star.
Without you here,
I don't have anyone to eat late-night snacks with!
This voice...
Hey, Gu Dan Soo!
Maeng Gong Hee?
Why do I have to order so much...
just to have some tteokbokki delivered?
I don't have anyone to go to the convenience store with...
even when I'm scared to go out alone at night!
You said to lean on you when things were hard!
You said you'd always stay by my side!
So why did you leave?
You should be by my side, at least!
How could you leave like that...
just because I got a little angry?
Why do I feel so frustrated...
no matter how much I yell?
Gu Dan Soo!
Hey! You jerk!
Gu Dan Soo, you total fraud!
- Hey! - Why are you calling me?
Gu Dan Soo, you...
I'm right here.
Why are you worried about ordering too much tteokbokki?
I know you can eat everything by yourself.
Who are you? Do I know you?
Why are you acting like you know me?
Is that it?
Are you angry because you don't have someone...
to eat tteokbokki with?
Are you fine except for that?
No.
I'm not fine.
I could tell you stuff...
that I couldn't even tell my mom.
Even when I was stressed or exhausted,
I felt okay when I was with you.
But that friend disappeared overnight.
How could I be fine?
"Friend?"
Yes, a friend.
You and I are best friends since childhood.
I can't give any other excuse...
than the fact that we're friends.
I need you.
Can't you just stay by my side?
I'm sorry,
but I don't need a friend.
Hey, Gu Dan Soo.
There's something you don't know.
Even when we lived in Kkotsan,
I wasn't just friends with you.
You were my first love.
What?
If you didn't know, keep it in mind from now on.
Hey, Gu Dan Soo. You...
If I keep staying with your family,
I'll always be your friend.
Snot Face Geon.
Rude Gu Dan Soo.
Your childhood friend and roommate...
who's always on your side.
That won't cut it for me.
I want to become more than that.
Can't we just stay friends?
No.
I have no intention of staying friends.
If what you want is...
your childhood friend, Snot Face Geon,
I can't be that for you.
I told you to dress more warmly.
Don't catch a cold.
I'm too far away to buy you cold medicine.
Bye.
Then what do you want to do?
What else can we become...
other than friends?
Is everyone asleep?
Gosh, seriously.
My gosh.
Did you just get home, son?
Mom, hold on...
Wait!
Wait! Put down the weapon!
- Mom! Stop. - How could you do this to me?
How?
How can you constantly make me worry?
Answer me if you can. Go on!
You said I did my duty as a son...
on the day I got accepted to medical school.
You said going to medical school was enough.
You call that an excuse?
But you told me to answer you, so I did.
Gosh, you punk!
Oh, my.
How could you do this?
How could you not know...
until your son turned five years old?
Soo Yeon hid it from me on purpose. What could I do?
I'm flabbergasted too.
What will you do about Hong Dan?
What will you do? You just got back from your honeymoon.
It's no better than a marriage scam in my eyes too!
What do you plan to do?
That's why marriage is the problem.
Mom, I must not be cut out for marriage.
That's why I said I wouldn't get married...
You fool! Are you serious right now?
I'll take care of everything.
How will you take care of things?
What did Soo Yeon say?
Did you get in touch with her?
I did get in touch, but...
You got in touch, but what?
She's going to study in the US for two years.
You know how she likes to study.
She should take my name since it means "to study."
My gosh!
- My gosh! You... - Come on, Mom.
Just hit me instead. That would make me feel better.
Right. I really don't want to become a mom...
who hits her grown-up child.
But you asked for it.
- You deserve a beating. - Wait, not with this.
You! My goodness!
Why do you live like this? Why?
When there's something you shouldn't hear,
- these are the best. - You punk!
- My gosh! - Here. Let me see your ears.
- Mom. - My gosh!
There. You can't hear, can you?
There you go.
Oh, goodness. My baby.
Right. It's okay.
Relax.
Ssook Ssook.
It's no big deal.
Mommy got a little worked up, right?
I'm sorry.
It's fine.
You know, Daddy...
No!
That jerk isn't your daddy. Daddy, my foot.
Ssook Ssook,
you don't have a daddy anymore.
Mommy will do...
everything a daddy would do for you.
What do I do?
Mom, what do I do?
All right.
Well, do these fit you?
Do you wear these to bed?
Okay. Arms in the air.
Arms in the air.
Hey.
What did your mom tell you?
I am Maeng Gong Boo's son.
Right, and I am Maeng Gong Boo. That's me.
Daddy.
I'm your dad...
Yes, you're right.
Didn't your mom tell you anything else?
Why?
Hey, you'll be living apart from your mom.
Aren't you even crying?
- Why? - Goodness.
Hey, I'm asking the questions here.
What do you mean, "Why?"
Hey, he's just like you as a kid.
Your nickname used to be Why Man.
Well, you do...
look like me. My gosh.
Come here.
You should get changed.
I can change myself.
Mom told me that I should get changed on my own.
Oh, goodness.
Oh, my. What?
Oh, my.
- Hey. - My goodness.
Oh, my.
He knows what he's doing.
He's better than I am.
- Goodness. - My gosh.
He knows how things go.
He is better than you.
Goodness.
That's it.
Gong Boo isn't at fault either.
He didn't know this would happen.
Gong Boo is the one who's the most shocked right now.
Don't yell at him so much.
I know.
I know that too.
But my heart...
It's just burning up. That's all.
I thought I had gotten him married...
and that I was finally free from being his mom.
But he came back with a kid.
I mean, he's old enough now.
Can't he just take care of himself now?
I can't be there as his mom forever.
How much longer do I have to do this?
Do you think it ends?
It never ends until you end up in your coffin.
You're right.
Even at this age,
I'm whining to my mother.
You still have to be there for me as my mom too.
At least you know that.
Mom.
What if Gong Boo gets divorced again?
I don't even want to think about that time. It was like a nightmare.
Back then, Gong Boo was completely distraught.
He quit his job at the clinic where he used to work.
He was a wreck.
I gave him all my money and whatever I could borrow...
to help him open up his own clinic,
and he barely managed to pull himself together.
I thought he could finally live a stable life.
Mom, does he have a cursed fate or something?
My goodness.
Oh, dear.
Even if it's just once.
I want to see him again, even just once.
My son, Dan Soo.
(Son)
Hello?
Who is this?
I'm hanging up. No more prank calls.
Wait.
Dan Soo. It's me, your mom.
I'm your mom.
I...
want to tell the whole world that I'm your mom,
hold you in my arms even if it's just once,
and apologize to you.
Dan Soo.
Dan Soo, my son.
Dan Soo.
Yes, a friend.
You and I are best friends since childhood.
She had to call me a friend again.
All she has to do is take just one more step toward me.
Is it that hard, Maeng Ggong?
Son.
You met Ji Na's mom, didn't you?
At Chairwoman Hwang's place.
You knew?
Yes, Dan Soo told me.
Do you know how I was treated today?
Ji Na's mother...
treated me like a housemaid...
and outright belittled me.
And you know what?
Ji Na walked in, holding Chairwoman Hwang's hand.
What is the matter with Ji Na?
She says she will marry you...
and does these things.
My pride?
Fine, they can go ahead and stomp all over it.
But...
thinking that you might get your heart broken...
makes me so sad...
and miserable.
Mom.
I'm sorry.
Min Gi.
I'll put things right.
I'll...
put everything back to where they should be.
Don't worry about a thing, Mom.
Where are you?
Home.
Why do you sound upset?
Did something happen?
Did you perhaps hear something...
from your mother?
No, she didn't say anything.
I'm just tired.
Really? Then I'm relieved.
Oh, right. I can't go to work with you tomorrow.
My mom will sleep here tonight.
I think she wants to stay with me to watch me 24-7.
How much longer do you plan to avoid this problem?
Just until tomorrow.
My mom will go home in a couple of days.
Sleep well. I'll see you tomorrow at work.
- Hey. - What are you doing?
Hey, I haven't eaten anything all day.
I've been running around to get things sorted out...
since I got back from my honeymoon.
And as soon as I got home today,
Mom started yelling at me.
Give me a minute.
Thank you.
Don't you think you owe Soo Yeon an apology?
An apology? Why should I apologize to her?
Regardless of how it happened, she had to raise him all by herself.
She couldn't even tell you.
Get your facts straight. It's not like she couldn't tell me.
She chose not to tell me to mess with me.
I mean, for five years...
She's so mean. She's spiteful.
Hey.
Things are completely over between you and Soo Yeon, right?
Hey.
It's not that simple, you see.
To me, Soo Yeon is a spiteful woman...
and my ex-wife,
but she's that kid's mother.
And I'm his father.
But what about Ms. Eom?
I do not want to see her get hurt.
I feel so bad when I think about Hong Dan.
But I don't think I can go back to her...
and ask her to forgive me, you know.
How am I going to ask her to raise a child who isn't hers?
I'm not that shameless.
What would you do if you were me? Would you ask her...
or not? Should I leave her?
Should I go back to Hong Dan?
Gosh, I don't know either.
Just eat your food. Good grief.
You asked me first. Why are you mad at me?
I wonder if Hong Dan is eating well.
She kept crying nonstop earlier.
She's pregnant. What if she collapses or something?
My goodness.
Food is the best remedy, Ssook Ssook.
We have to eat well. Okay, Ssook Ssook?
The two of us...
will cheer up and stay strong, Ssook Ssook. Yes.
(Quack)
I will not answer your calls.
(Quack)
Can we meet tomorrow?
Gosh, I don't know.
No one understands...
how I feel now.
No one.
(Eom Hong Dan, Read)
She read my message but isn't replying.
They even have the exact same sleeping posture.
He does resemble Gong Boo so much.
(Pregnancy Journal, Maeng Gong Hee)
(Congratulations, Gong Hee!)
Hey. It's not that simple, you see.
I have a kid.
To me, Soo Yeon is a spiteful woman...
and my ex-wife,
but she's that kid's mother.
And I'm his father.
To you,
I'm your mom.
And Mr. Seo...
is your dad.
What?
I guess I left these in this drawer.
Hey. Gu Dan Soo, Snot Face.
So,
what do you want to become other than my friend?
I'm in over my head now too.
My heart is so full...
that it's even hard to breathe.
You never beat me when we were kids either,
whether it was in running...
or in catching bugs.
So,
just lose to me again this time, Gu Dan Soo.
What? I'll go and see who it is.
Oh, Min Gi.
What's this?
Min Gi, what are you doing?
Please consider me as Ji Na's match just once, Mother.
Do you think...
this will soften my heart?
You were mistaken.
Do you really think...
Gu Dan Soo will inherit Jayce Group?
What?
If I promise you that I'll become the chairman of Jayce Group,
will you give me your permission?
What?
How does it taste?
It's pretty good.
He says it's pretty good.
No Ah, I'm your aunt.
Auntie Gong Hee.
I've heard a lot about you from my mom.
What did your mom tell you?
That you're better than my dad.
Goodness, she was right about that.
She taught you so well.
- She insulted me to my own son. - Just hold it in.
Gosh, how can you be so cute?
You're so adorable.
Hurry up and get married so you can have your own kid.
What? No way.
What do you mean?
You're old enough to be a mom already.
- Oh, try this too. - Yes.
- Thank you. - Of course.
Oh, dear.
- Gosh, what's wrong with her? - Eat up.
What's wrong with you?
What do you mean?
Why do you keep getting an upset stomach?
Are you perhaps...
pregnant?
Mom...
My daughter.
Please tell me that nothing is wrong.
At least you...
Please tell me nothing is wrong.
(My Merry Marriage)
I could...
have Jayce Group become a part of Dodo Group.
I can't talk to anyone with the surname Maeng...
for more than three seconds.
"No one from the Maeng family is allowed inside."
Hang on a minute. Who doesn't have that surname?
Me?
Gong Hee, did you see this article?
Did Holly agree to this?
What... No.
How did this...
Was it perhaps Kang Ji Na?
Mother.
My surname isn't Maeng.
