She'll get a call once I die anyway.
Why does she keep looking for me?
I left after buying my own burial gown.
Why are you looking for me, Myung Ja?
I will take my ill body with me until the end.
This is my wish, Myung Ja.
Please don't cry.
If you cry,
your mom's heart aches as if it's being torn to shreds.
Ma'am!
What are you doing out here?
(Episode 95)
- Help me. Take me back inside. - What? My goodness, why...
- Help me. Let's go back inside. - Okay, watch your step.
If she's not here,
and if I can't find her anywhere in her hometown,
where can I go to look for her now?
Where did my mom go?
I left, thinking I'd never see her again...
until I died.
I have to say, it is nice to see her again like this.
My dear daughter, Myung Ja.
Forget all about your incompetent mother now.
Just live your life, my dear child.
My goodness.
Hey.
The other business owners in the building said...
this space had been sold.
I wanted to drop by because I was worried.
How did it get sold so quickly?
Are you all right?
Well, the thing is...
Anyway,
are you planning to open...
a new alteration shop in a different neighborhood?
Well, this shop...
I own it now.
What?
Dan Soo bought it for me.
What?
Hold on. Dan Soo is the person who bought this shop?
Yes.
He said he bought it...
so I could stay by my son's side...
and keep doing what I like.
Really?
Oh, my. So, you own this shop now?
Somehow, this happened.
My gosh. Look at you. Your face is glowing.
Now that you can live comfortably thanks to your successful son,
you look like a radiant flower in full bloom. I have to say,
I'm kind of jealous.
Well, you know what?
I feel like you've changed...
since meeting Dan Soo again. What's going on?
What?
I mean, you used to call me so fondly all the time...
and acted like you'd do anything for me.
But ever since you met Dan Soo again,
you've been looking rather uncomfortable in my presence.
Oh, no. It's just that...
I want to start working again,
so I have a lot to think about.
I see. Hey, why would you work so hard?
Your rich son can afford to buy you this building.
My goodness.
I'll be off, then.
I'll be out of your hair,
so keep working away.
Goodness. She has a rich son now, so she doesn't care about us?
We were so worried about her.
Seriously, she has changed.
Gosh, I can't believe this.
Oh, hey. What happened?
Did you find your mother?
Oh, no. What are we going to do?
If she didn't go to her hometown,
then where could she be?
I think something...
happened to her.
Hey! Why would you say that?
What am I supposed to do? I can't find her.
I've been running around,
but I can't find a single trace of her.
I'm so worried about my mom.
- Gyeong Bok, what should I do? - My goodness.
Gosh, Myung Ja! You poor thing.
What should we do?
- Hey, don't cry. - Oh, no.
Oh, goodness. Myung Ja.
Don't worry too much.
Please find my mom.
Please, I beg you.
Gyeong Tae.
Please find my mom.
I want to do whatever it takes to find Mom.
If you're my husband...
If you're her son-in-law...
It's my only wish.
Please grant my wish.
Please, my mom...
Find my mom, please.
All right, okay.
All right, honey. I'll find her.
Yes, I will.
Myung Ja...
Okay, honey.
(Honey. Geon's mom. If you're reading this letter...)
Hae Joon, are you watching us from above?
Geon and I have been reunited.
Now, I have nothing more to wish for.
You're already done for the day?
Yes, I wanted to have dinner with you,
so I ran here.
Anyway, what were you reading that you're crying again?
Oh, this.
Your dad's letter.
Dad's letter?
Yes.
Dan Soo, you must miss him a lot too.
I guess your dad...
left this for me because he knew I'd come back.
But he didn't know it'd take so long.
Honey. Geon's mom.
If you're reading this letter,
that would mean you came back to me and Geon.
I'm writing a few words...
in case we miss each other.
I know that you left us because of me.
There wasn't any proper proposal between us,
let alone a wedding.
We never had much to our names,
and whenever my mother would approach us,
we couldn't even pack up what little we had...
and had to move from place to place.
If I get to meet you again,
I want to start over.
I still love you.
And...
I don't resent you.
I miss you.
I'll run over to you to see you soon.
There.
What did I tell you, Geon?
You said you were going out to find Mom.
You told me to listen to Gong Hee's mom and dad.
That's right. Mom and I...
will come back together, holding hands.
Mom got lost.
I will come home with Mom, okay?
- Have fun with Gong Hee. - Okay.
Dad, one more thing.
Can I play your guitar?
Of course, you can.
- But let's wait... - Yes?
until your hands...
get to be as big as mine.
I'll teach you then, okay?
Okay.
I remember...
Dad from that day.
The day he left to go find you.
He left with this letter he wrote you...
and a ring box.
But...
how do you have this letter and the ring?
I received them too late through someone else.
Through someone else? Who is that?
Are there others who knew Dad?
I want to meet and talk to them.
That's...
Oh, my.
I heard the news from Gyeong Bok...
that Dan Soo bought this shop.
Dan Soo, good job.
Thank you, Mr. Maeng.
Mom, I wouldn't have been able to find you without his help.
Oh, please.
So, Dan Soo...
I'll see you at home.
Wait, you should stay for a cup of tea.
No, I'm off.
Why are you acting like that around Mr. Maeng?
Did something happen?
Do you still have more to do?
Yes.
Shall we go home together?
I'm done for the day.
No, you can head home first.
Okay, then. I'll be going.
You see, I really like this color.
It will never end if I only have suspicions.
I must find out for myself.
What is this about?
Well, I mentioned that I had something to ask you,
but you're not back yet.
I left the office for a meeting and came straight home.
I'll text you my address.
You can come if it's urgent.
Come in.
Have a seat.
Do you want something to drink?
I never thought you'd be sitting on my sofa.
Is coffee okay?
It's decaf.
I need to ask you something.
What could it be?
I'm dying to know.
Take a look around the house while you wait.
There are...
some items in my house that might pique your interest.
I should get rid of it,
but I couldn't bring myself to do it.
I never thought I'd have you over at this house.
For me, this is the place where Min Gi and I lived together.
You'll find traces of him around the house.
The place where you lived together?
Would you like to see?
This place is...
full of Min Gi's traces.
Didn't you know...
that Seo Min Gi and I lived together?
Oh, my. This must be news to you.
Seo Min Gi and I dated for three years,
and we lived together for over a year.
That's all in the past.
I came to talk about the present.
The present?
Like what?
Like why Seo Min Gi came home late last night?
I guess you want to know if he was with me.
You want to believe Min Gi's lie,
but you just don't believe him.
So, you want to confirm things through me.
- Isn't that right? - The person I'm doubting...
isn't my husband.
It's you, who keeps clinging to the past that's over and done with.
"The past that's over and done with?"
Do you really think it's that simple?
What do you think it means that we lived together?
We may not have had a wedding,
but we practically lived like a married couple.
There's history between us.
A history that will never disappear even if you get between us.
What makes you so confident?
Why shouldn't I be confident?
I am...
honest about how I feel.
You took what was precious to me.
I think you have to pay the price for that.
Weren't you ready for this?
I will...
do whatever it takes not to regret my decision.
For my child,
I will keep my family safe.
Is that so?
You must be sure of yourself.
Then, just do that.
Why did you come all the way here to ask me?
Just believe your husband's lie and go on with your life.
Seo Min Gi is a smart man,
and he'll come up with some clever lies.
It's obvious.
He'll go on with flashy excuses,
like how he will take responsibility.
How do you love such a cowardly man?
Will you please get out of the way if you can't do it?
I am...
in love with that man.
I think...
this confirms what I needed to know.
Then,
it's time for me to confirm something.
You.
Do you love Seo Min Gi?
I guess you can't bring yourself to lie.
But...
I caught you.
You...
cannot love Seo Min Gi,
ever.
Do you think you can read my mind?
I know you think you loved him,
and your feelings were sincere.
But it was admiration, not love.
The fangirl mentality.
Coveting something that can never be yours.
When you realize it,
it'll be too late.
Am I wrong?
Don't think you know everything about us and our relationship.
Look at you getting worked up.
Does it hurt to hear the truth?
Even so, you can't be hurting more than I am.
Shall I tell you how I am feeling as I'm trying...
to hold out now?
No.
I don't want to know.
See? I warned you.
I told you it wouldn't be easy.
Min Gi was with me...
last night.
At my place, in my room.
He was with me last night.
You've made such a foolish choice.
You'll soon realize everything, one by one.
The price for ignoring my advice.
You'll surely pay the price now.
(Bus Stop, Heungin Building)
(Seongchang-dong)
Aren't you getting on the bus?
I don't want to go to that house.
I want to...
go home.
Mom, I'm here.
I'm hungry, Mom!
Mom.
No Ah.
Oh, boy.
So, are you saying...
I'm getting stressed out for no reason?
It's perfectly fine for your ex-wife to meddle in No Ah's life?
Do you think I'm in the wrong for having an issue with it?
No.
When did I say that?
We can't expect Soo Yeon to completely ignore No Ah.
So, it'd just be easier if the two of you...
looked away as if you were complete strangers.
Oh, is that why...
you're distancing yourself from all of it...
as if we're complete strangers to you?
I see. You're really good at this.
You'll walk on this tightrope...
between Lee Soo Yeon and me until...
Until what?
- Goodness. - You little...
Dad, do you have to pee?
What? Oh, no.
My gosh.
When did you get here?
You're home.
Oh, my! Auntie Gong Hee is here!
- No Ah. - My goodness!
My one and only sister, Maeng Gong Hee, is here.
It's so good to see you.
What brings you by? Have you eaten yet?
You've been taking those supplements, right?
Yes, Gong Boo.
Why are you going overboard?
Oh, I see. You must've upset Hong Dan again.
- Goodness. - Be good to her.
How much longer will you keep upsetting her?
Why are you nagging me too?
Help me out here, all right?
Anyway, what brings you here at this hour?
Mother will be home late.
Right, no one was home,
so I was going to call you guys.
Anyway, where did everyone go?
Mother and Father...
have been running around to look for Grandmother.
We just got home after eating out.
I see. I really hope we find Grandma soon.
Maybe I should go out there and look for her too.
Don't.
You're pregnant.
How will you do that and work too?
Auntie Gong Hee, is there a baby growing inside your belly too?
Yes.
Your baby cousin is growing inside my belly.
You'll meet these babies soon. Lucky you, No Ah.
Does that mean I'll have two baby siblings?
You silly goose. You'll have a baby sibling and a baby cousin.
Don't you dare laugh in front of me, you little...
Goodness.
Aren't things stressful at work?
You can tell me everything.
Work isn't stressful,
but Grandma keeps pressuring me for no reason.
It doesn't scare me at all,
but I'm worried because of Gong Hee.
What if...
she can't do what she wants because of me?
I know how hard she's been working,
so I'm worried.
Right, you don't want it to affect her negatively.
We're both so grateful to her.
I should protect Gong Hee so that she won't get hurt.
Hey, Dan Soo. You know this, right?
Gong Hee is married now.
You can worry about her as a friend,
but nothing more than that.
Yes. Of course, I know that.
I used to hate it when she called me a friend,
but I'm now glad that I can be there as her friend.
After some time,
all these emotions will become dull.
You think so?
Will these emotions really become dull...
after some time passes?
Seo Min Gi and I dated for three years,
and we lived together for over a year.
There's history between us.
A history that will never disappear even if you get between us.
What should I do?
What am I going to do?
What are you doing?
Oh, hey.
Why are you hitting the punching bag with your head?
Because I don't have the energy to actually punch it, okay?
Maeng Gong Hee, where did your spirit go?
I guess Seo Min Gi has done something wrong.
What is it?
What did he do wrong...
that you're here with a gloomy face?
Hey.
Are you all right?
Yes, it's nothing.
I keep getting mood swings these days.
I heard it was to be expected in early pregnancy.
Don't worry.
What do you mean it's nothing?
It's written all over your face.
You see, even when you were little,
your eye shape changed...
when you were trying not to cry.
Your eye shape becomes rectangular.
What?
Who has rectangular eyes?
You should eat something first.
All right. I cooked you this ramyeon...
every time you had to work at night.
You're talking as though you cooked me this every night.
Don't you remember?
Every time you said you had to pull an all-nighter,
I cooked you ramyeon...
and picked up tteokbokki for you.
That's true. Thanks, Gu Dan Soo.
Thanks for this.
You can't swallow?
As if something is stuck in your throat?
Just tell me.
What is it?
I feel like there's this tangled mess...
sitting in my heart.
Where do I begin to untangle this?
Or should I just leave it as it is?
I'm not sure...
about anything.
What...
should I do, Gu Dan Soo?
(My Merry Marriage)
How shameless of you to come here.
I'm going to be brave and make an effort as Dan Soo's mom.
You want me to accept a mere thing like you as my family?
She said she'd spend the night at her parents' house.
Did she discuss this with you?
Or did she go there without telling you?
All of a sudden, without a word...
She didn't come home.
She must've been shocked...
from hearing that we used to live together.
