(Guidelines were strictly followed when filming with children.)
How much can you give me?
On the condition that I give up being Dan Soo's mom...
and that I'd never show myself before my son again.
How much will you give me?
So, it was you?
The woman who ruthlessly abandoned me and left?
Are we going somewhere?
Yes, we're going to meet Mom.
Really? Where's Mom? Let's hurry, then.
But I have to meet someone before that.
Hang out at Gong Hee's place for a bit, okay?
Then can I play with your guitar?
My guitar? Sure thing.
When I'm back, I'll teach you how to play the guitar.
Nice.
I can't find the nightingale
Teach me how to play that song.
All right. When I'm back,
we'll practice the song together. Sounds good?
Yes.
Hold it. Like this.
Mr. Gu!
Hello.
Oh, Gong Hee. You're here.
Do you mind playing with Geon for a bit?
Of course, I don't mind. That's why I'm here.
Don't you worry.
Let's go, Geon. You're ready to have fun, right?
I probably look really stupid right now.
Maeng Gong Hee.
What would you say if you were here now?
Why must you leave me alone?
Why aren't you by my side now,
Maeng Gong Hee?
Here.
Just try one.
I can eat a whole bowl of rice with just one piece.
My gosh, it stinks.
I told you to throw it away. Why must you be so stubborn?
It's good.
Don't throw it away.
What is this?
Min Gi, you can't eat soy sauce marinated crab.
You're allergic to shellfish.
Oh, no. You can't eat it, Mr. Seo?
You didn't even know that about your husband?
Why didn't you tell her?
He must've told me in the past. I guess I forgot.
It's okay if I eat it occasionally.
It is not okay.
You react badly as soon as your lips touch them.
Also, stop calling him "Mr. Seo."
It makes me feel suffocated.
Goodness. I'll get indigestion thanks to you.
Dear me.
No Ah, you look like you've grown a lot.
I told you to call me often.
Didn't you miss me?
Mom doesn't want me using my cell phone,
so I couldn't call you.
"Mom?"
No Ah, who are you talking about?
I'm your mom.
What? I have another mom here.
I have two moms.
What are you talking about?
No Ah.
Mom is right here.
At daycare, my teacher told me to write about my mom,
so I wrote two separate paragraphs.
About Lee Soo Yeon and Eom Hong Dan.
You're both my moms.
Why are you calling that woman your mom?
No Ah, you only have one mom, okay?
No Ah, give me your phone. Come on.
Listen, Ms. Lee Soo Yeon.
Why do you keep calling No Ah? You are confusing him.
What on earth did you say to No Ah...
that he's calling you Mom?
He's calling me Mom because I am his mom now.
Is he supposed to call me Dad, then?
Don't you even think about...
how this could confuse No Ah?
You stay out of this.
Put Maeng Gong Boo on the phone.
Let me talk to his father right now!
Who are you to order me to put my husband on the phone?
Hey, Lee Soo Yeon. What's with you, seriously?
Here, listen to this story for a bit.
I'll come back in a bit and read you the book. Here.
Let me warn you again. You have no rights over No Ah.
Let the boy sleep and live your life.
I am No Ah's mom.
I can't let that woman steal my No Ah from me!
Didn't she abandon him as if he was a burden?
What is this nonsense she's saying now?
I'm going to hang up now. I wish you all the best.
"I wish you all the best?"
My goodness. Did you have to act all cool even in that situation?
No, I wasn't trying to act cool.
I wanted to be sincere.
She abandoned her son and left, so she should live well.
Why does she keep calling him when he's doing fine?
Who keeps calling?
What's going on? Is it about No Ah?
The thing is,
No Ah's mom...
Soo Yeon keeps calling No Ah at bedtime,
so I told her to stop calling.
No Ah's mom is...
- Hong Dan now. - Right.
Does Soo Yeon want to take him back?
Well, she left him with you,
- but she might want to take him... - No.
I won't send him back to her.
No Ah is my son.
Yes, of course.
She abandoned him, so that's it.
How dare she want him back?
I'm worried because of Soo Yeon.
She has quite a temper too, you know.
Oh, please.
It'll all be fine.
What if she stubbornly insists on taking him back?
No Ah is still young.
He'll be so confused.
No Ah is young, but he's thoughtful and wise,
so he'll be all right.
Are you going to be so nonchalant about this again?
Well, it's not like...
Soo Yeon is going to come back right away.
I'm just anxious. That's all.
I have a bad feeling about this.
You're always worrying for no reason.
That's a bad habit of yours.
Worrying for no reason?
My worries have always come true.
I'm the only one who worries about this family.
You're always distracted by other people's worries.
What? What did I do?
Am I wrong? You keep going out and disappearing.
And you're always having nightmares.
You should worry about your family that much.
Why am I the only one who's worried all the time?
I called you both here...
because the competition to choose my successor...
might have to be expedited.
The Holly Project is getting good feedback.
In order to convince the board,
it would be good to keep this momentum going.
I thought you were going to give us more time.
I can't wait for too long.
I'm about to achieve my goal.
Will you be able to catch up?
Isn't direction more important than speed?
While you were wandering the world, designing clothes on a whim,
I kept my place at Jayce Fashion.
I know this company well.
I will show you what I can do in a faster and stronger way.
Please make your decision once you see the outcome.
If that's what you say,
I should wait and see.
But I can't give you too much time.
Bring me good results.
Yes, ma'am.
If you're finished, I'll be going now.
Grandma.
Why are you so anxious and in a rush?
Is it because I asked you about Ms. Audrey?
Did you perhaps hear something?
No.
You said you lent her money.
And that was why Mr. Seo went to see her too.
Isn't that right?
Oh, yes. I did.
Well, is there some reason I shouldn't know?
Of course not.
Then what makes you so anxious and rushed?
It's as if you've been caught with a secret no one can know about.
This man, Holly, seriously...
The collaboration line from the fashion show...
had great responses,
and he already sent over...
these designs.
This one.
Don't you think it'll be a huge hit?
I was so impressed too. He must really be a genius.
All I gave him was the idea of using recycled materials,
and he completed these so quickly.
I knew he had an extraordinary aura.
It doesn't even look like a recycled material.
And it's totally different from the designs from the show.
Oh, I like it.
It might be good for getting the word out...
about Holly's good influence.
It would help our company's image too.
Of course. Let's proceed with this. Sounds good?
It really leaves you in awe.
- Look at these lines. - I know, right?
About what you said during the meeting...
The Holly project.
I wish you'd take your hands off of that project.
Excuse me?
But I've been in charge of this project since the beginning.
If Gu Dan Soo pulls off this project,
the chairwoman will pass the group down to him right away.
That position doesn't belong to Dan Soo.
So, you should take your hands off of that project.
What? I don't really get it.
Why are you telling me to quit the project?
I told you.
If he pulls off this project,
he will inherit the group.
That position is...
the one I've been dreaming of.
Gong Hee.
We're a married couple now, so I'll be honest with you.
The chairwoman said she'd give me and Dan Soo an equal chance.
A chance to compete...
to become Jayce Fashion's next chairman.
So?
Dan Soo doesn't have what it takes to lead Jayce Group.
A capable person should be in that position.
A family succession is an unreasonable...
and outdated concept.
So, you mean you've been working all this time for that position?
I'm nearly there now.
I need some time.
I...
want to become a stronger father for our child.
I can't let my child live as a servant too.
Gong Hee.
Can't you take my side?
At least for our child's sake.
No.
I can't take your side.
Is it because of Gu Dan Soo?
It's neither for Dan Soo nor for you.
And I don't agree that this is for our child's sake.
Working at Jayce Fashion was an old dream of mine.
I never even thought about who's master and servant.
Thinking that way in life...
is too cruel on yourself.
I want our child to watch its parents dream...
and have a positive outlook on life.
I'll consider I never heard what you just said.
At the meeting,
they all loved your designs using the recycled materials.
The director was going on about...
how it'd be a huge hit.
As our genius designer,
you just keep designing as you've been doing.
I've brought you some minor revisions.
Maeng Gong Hee.
You knew, didn't you?
You told me to go to Ms. Audrey.
Didn't you know everything when you said that?
Did you meet with Ms. Audrey?
Did you hear?
So you knew.
Even when you knew,
you didn't tell me.
Why? Because you couldn't care less about me?
I only found out recently too.
I wanted you to hear it directly from her.
Did Ms. Audrey tell you everything?
No.
I just found out.
How?
I heard her talking to my grandma.
Dan Soo.
Don't let that woman know...
that I know about this.
That itself is unpleasant.
Why are you calling your mom "that woman?"
Forget it. You should go now.
- Gu Dan Soo. - Ms. Maeng Gong Hee.
You may go now.
Are you okay?
What if I say I'm not okay?
Can you handle that?
It's not like you can comfort me now anyway.
- Don't be like that... - Get out.
I want to be alone.
(Executive Director's Office)
Hey.
I heard you took a bunch of food to your in-laws.
I guess you'll visit us soon with food from your in-laws too.
Gosh, how good will it taste?
Oh, right. I have to bring food in return.
When I got married, we skipped all that...
since I don't have my own family.
But it would be nice if you did that for your parents.
I'm sure Mother is waiting.
What's this?
My gosh. I'm off.
Oh, dear.
I'm sure Mother isn't even thinking about this.
What should I do?
(Food for in-laws)
(High Quality Fruits and Rice Cakes, Best Fruit Baskets)
All right.
Let me see.
All right. Let me taste this.
Yes, that's it.
I can tell it's Maeng Gyeong Bok's recipe.
Whenever she brought this from home when we were kids,
the whole class would swarm around to get a taste.
Squeeze that out
(Myung Ja's daughter)
Oh, dear.
What's up?
Mother.
Would you be okay with me having dinner with my family today?
With your family? Why?
Oh, I have to visit them to drop off something.
Sure, do whatever you want. What about Min Gi?
I think he's working late today.
All right.
I have to keep up with my low-sodium diet.
Why did they have to send me this?
And why is it so good? How annoying.
All right. Let's see now.
It's so good.
Oh, no. I shouldn't be doing this.
My goodness. I need to watch my figure.
No, I shouldn't eat this. Stop.
No.
Whatever. I should just eat it.
Yes, I'll eat it. It's so good that I can't stop myself.
Whatever.
There's no way Jung Ssang Sook sent us food that she made herself.
Oh, my. Should I open this one too?
They're all from a famous place.
They'll be delicious.
My goodness. Is this food or art?
It does look luxurious.
Oh, my.
How are we going to eat these when they're all so pretty?
My, I guess Ssang Sook has accepted the fact that we're in-laws now.
She is doing her duty as your mother-in-law.
You acted like the world would end once you two became in-laws.
It's actually no big deal, right?
No big deal, my foot.
I still wake up in the middle of the night.
Knowing her, there's no way she'd be nice to you.
Tell me how she treats you.
If she's mean to you, I will just...
You'll just what?
You should be fawning over her so she'd be nice to Gong Hee.
They say having a daughter puts you at a disadvantage.
What's wrong with having a daughter?
Why should it put me at a disadvantage?
If she hurts my daughter's feelings even just a little bit,
I'll make her pay for it.
Don't worry.
Both Mother and Father are nice to me.
Good. Just tell us if they're ever mean to you, okay?
Mom, try this.
- Here. Auntie, try this. - All right.
(General Manager Seo Min Gi)
Ms. Eom said earlier...
that Gong Hee would visit her family after work.
Shouldn't you go with her?
What are you doing?
(Jayce Fashion and Hermes)
A collaboration with Hermes?
This is a huge project.
Are you leading this project on your own?
Once Dan Soo and Gong Hee launch a new collection under Holly's name,
Dan Soo's influence in the company will only grow.
I need to generate meaningful results...
where I can take full credit.
You're talking as though you want to be...
the next chairman of the company.
I can help.
What?
It's a collaboration with a global luxury brand.
Designing for the top one percent.
Do you think you can find someone better than me?
If you have a goal, you ought to accomplish it.
And I can help you accomplish your goal.
This is work, you know?
Let's see.
First off, I like your approach.
With your experience in the marketing team,
I'm sure you've already come up with a solid PR strategy.
Leave the designs to me.
The best designer should design for the A-list customers.
I should go.
Where are you going?
Mom.
Mom!
Mom.
Mom!
Mom.
My gosh.
Dan Soo.
I'm here to ask you something.
I've been racking my brain,
but I really can't figure out the answer.
I see.
What is it?
A while ago,
you told me that you had a son.
But you don't live with your son now.
Did you abandon him?
Dan Soo.
I was abandoned too, you see.
By my own mother.
How would a parent feel...
after abandoning their own child?
I'm curious.
Tell me.
Did you abandon your son?
Well...
I mean, I...
I was just kidding.
I knew you'd never do such a thing, Ms. Audrey.
You're always so nice to me.
Right.
Well, Dan Soo. Would you like a cup of coffee?
I made some coffee earlier.
One moment.
Gosh, it's hot!
Does it hurt?
No...
I'm fine.
That's strange.
I'm...
still the little boy who's scraped his knee...
by falling over in the torrential rain.
My scraped knee...
still hurts to this day.
Dan Soo.
Please be quiet...
and stay still.
Just for a moment.
Gu Dan Soo, did you have to go somewhere?
Did something happen?
Ms. Audrey...
I met her.
She...
ruined everything.
My dad...
and my life too.
Don't say that.
She's your mom, whom you missed even in your dreams.
You told her not to go, not to leave.
I know you've always missed her.
What do you think you're doing?
Why, you little...
Gu Dan Soo!
(My Merry Marriage)
- Ta-da! - It's a gender reveal party...
for the baby, Mother.
Lee Soo Yeon won't suddenly come back, right?
Maeng Gong Boo.
I'll take No Ah back.
Gu Dan Soo.
I can tell you're faking that smile.
I can see everything.
Do you know something, Mr. Maeng?
Please tell me the truth.
In the end, you're asking me about my sin.
