(Episode 113)
Kids, wake up.
You need to go to school.
Get up. Come on.
I'm going to use the bathroom first.
Me too!
Girls can share it, can't we?
Oh, no. The girls took over.
You should get up early tomorrow then. All right?
There you go.
Oh, I forgot.
Well, did Se Ra sleep well with the kids?
Yes. You know kids get along easily.
Right. It's way better than that noisy place.
You'd have more work to do though.
I'll just think of it as feeding one more person.
That's not that simple.
Having another mouth to feed is really scary.
Goodness, I hope nothing would happen.
Oh, my! I think your surname must've changed!
You must've become Ko Bok Hee!
So I am. It was approved.
I'm no longer Park Bok Hee, but now I'm Ko Bok Hee.
This is great.
What's going on?
My application for a change of surname was approved.
I'm now Ko Bok Hee.
Goodness.
You have really become Ko Choong's daughter, Ko Bok Hee.
That's great news.
Mother, I'm here.
It's me.
Hey. You're here.
You look like you're in a good mood.
Do I?
I got some groceries on my way here, and I think I made a good choice.
I bought everything that's good for you, so you should have them.
How unusually considerate of you.
It was nothing.
Don't stand there. Sit down, Eun Lim.
Pardon?
Oh, I'm Eun Lim.
You would've said: "I am considerate!"
You seem like a different person since you're nice.
Really?
Was I nice?
Everyone knows you're sassy.
So I guess I am.
Gosh, I guess you change too as you get old.
I can't believe we're already 20.
It feels like I've lived for ages when I'm only 20.
Of course, if you're 20...
That would be nice.
I studied so diligently and lived hard.
I thought I'd become happy if I do.
Although I haven't lived that long, why does it feel so empty?
My mom passed away early,
and my dad is busy.
Maybe that's why I'm not that affectionate.
That's not true. People like that are warm inside.
Really?
You even comforted me.
Although you're sassy,
I'm grateful that you think of me and always be by my side.
- Are you? - But Eun Lim,
I have a crush on someone.
Really?
Who is it?
Well,
- don't you think Choong is nice? - Choong?
My dad?
- Why are you so surprised? - Oh, it's nothing.
So she used to like my dad.
But I don't know what to do.
- Have you heard anything about him? - What?
Although he's quiet, he thinks of you as a friend...
and talks and laughs with you.
I'm not too sure.
So you don't know either.
I didn't know I'd ever talk to you about this.
To be honest, I've never opened up to anyone before.
It's good to talk to you.
Is it? I'm glad.
Eun Lim,
I don't feel like I'll become happy.
I'm talking to you like this,
but I feel like we won't be able to in the future.
I think I'll die a lonely death without anyone by my side.
No way. You'd never!
You'll become very successful.
- I can see the future a little. - Really?
Yes. You'll become the CEO of a big company,
and you'll earn a lot of money.
And you'll have the coolest son ever.
It's true.
- I hope that becomes true. - It is.
And you might be able to...
see a beautiful daughter-in-law.
A cute grandson and granddaughter will be by your side.
- Is that so? - Yes.
So you won't die lonely without anyone by your side.
I'm going to be by your side until the end as well.
You must be hungry.
I bought some noodles so we could have lunch together.
I bought rice noodles since it's better than having flour.
I'll cook it quickly. Hold on.
What is she saying to a senile old hag?
They're so good at talking nonsense.
But Jung Young Sook keeps going back and forth.
But why won't your friend come?
My friend?
You know that girl with long hair. Why won't she come?
Oh, really?
Maybe she's not hungry yet.
Then why did you bring her? She looks mad.
She does?
Goodness, why did she get mad?
Here come your noodles.
Enjoy.
Today's dish is happy rice noodles,
so we could be happy every day without being mad.
You eat so well. Is it good?
Should I cook for you tomorrow too?
Yes.
I love foods that are thin and long.
If I eat this, I feel like I could really live for a long time.
I've been sick before.
It'd been nice to live long and healthy,
but we've gotten sick anyway.
So let's live for a long time and see people beside us.
It's not our fault that we're sick.
Why? Eat more.
Try it with this.
I don't want anymore.
What?
Are you okay?
Why are you speaking casually to me?
Do you see me as a crazy hag?
I'm sorry.
Go home.
Okay. I'll come again tomorrow!
Yes, Sir.
Right.
Really?
Hello.
Director Jang!
What is it?
I have some news today.
Ta-da!
What?
Do you know what happened today?
What happened?
It must be good news as you seem very happy!
I'm now...
Ko Bok Hee, not Park Bok Hee.
Did you change your surname?
Yes. That's the first news. Now the second news is...
What is it?
The publisher called...
and said my copyright might be sold for a soap opera.
Really?
What is it then?
It could be made into a soap opera?
Maybe!
It’s not a big production company, but a new company.
They said that they want this as their first work.
For real?
Do they want you to write the script yourself?
No. They'll only buy the copyright and use a drama writer.
So my book will be an original.
Still, it's a soap opera! Isn't that amazing?
It's incredible!
Wait. Isn't that Park Bok Hee...
Not Park Bok Hee.
I mean, isn't that story about Ko Bok Hee?
It is!
I think I'll feel a bit ashamed...
when my life gets aired on TV.
But I don't care!
Will they really make it?
I heard there are numerous originals where they just buy the copyrights.
But if it's really made, what is it?
I will appear on the soap opera too.
I must choose that actor. Don't you think?
Why is that?
You do it yourself.
That sounds good too.
Then...
the two of us could be partners...
Shall we?
If it's decided to be produced, shall we both go to the auditions?
I almost forgot.
Jung Woo is...
denying everything from the prosecution investigation.
What if they just wrap things up?
That can never happen!
According to Lawyer Kim, there's a notepad that he always carries.
He said he probably wrote everything down there as he did.
Notepad?
If there is such a thing, I hope we find it.
Yes. We need to put Jung Woo in jail somehow,
so that Sang Ah can't stand it and reveal herself.
I think my mom knows something,
but she can't remember well these days.
I heard...
you went to my home and had lunch with my mom today.
I did. We ate noodles and had a chat.
I think that she and I became somewhat...
like friends.
How was the investigation?
They're making a fuss by digging up everything from the past.
First, I need to find my notepad!
Your notepad? Where is it?
Would you...
like to do an errand for me?
- I'm always doing it. - No. Not like that.
You have to do it in secret.
I'm an expert at those.
What is it?
While I'm being investigated, people are keeping an eye on me...
and monitoring every move I make.
You should go by that house to see Sang Ah and run errands.
Pardon?
So are you really hiding Sang Ah?
What if you get caught?
Be quiet.
I'm still on period of probation.
If I help and get caught, I'll be in trouble!
I can't do it!
Why do you keep asking me to do illegal stuff?
It's hard to cover her by myself.
You said you'd be Lee Jung Jae from "Sandglass."
You said that you'd watch over me quietly with no other intentions.
How can you believe that as it is?
I gave up.
I already gave up on protecting Sang Ah...
so I'll pretend I didn't hear anything.
As long as you heard it, you must become an accomplice.
I'll reward you finely, so be my contact with her when you go there.
And ask Sang Ah to look for the notepad Young Sook has.
Hold on a second.
The more I hear it, the more it makes no sense.
You want Sang Ah, who is currently wanted,
to look for the notepad that Young Sook has?
Are you out of your mind?
No.
I'm not out of my mind. I have dementia.
Right?
You were so serious about your joke that I thought it was real.
How can you hide Sang Ah who is on the wanted list?
Also, how can she find the notepad?
I'm not joking...
about hiding her and asking her to find the notepad.
Pardon?
It's a place that she'll never be discovered...
and even if caught, you can talk your way out of it.
Where is that place?
I'm not saying I'll do it,
but I'm just asking as I'm really curious.
Why did she remove the router?
Why isn't Jung Woo showing up?
Gosh.
It's me. Open the window!
Cha Ban?
Take this.
Did Jung Woo send you here?
Wait a minute.
Well,
Director Yu told me to come here frequently...
as he's under investigation and being followed.
But you were really hiding here.
It's shocking.
This is for the "What on Earth" show.
Why is it all bread?
I want to eat jjajangmyeon or curry.
Director Yu said you shouldn't eat anything that smells.
Buy banana milk...
or coffee milk next time. I don't like plain milk.
You're picky even in this situation.
Even if you get caught later,
you should never spill to them that I bought you bread...
and milk like this. Okay?
Right. Director Yu want you to find the notepad and bring it to him.
- The notepad? - Yes.
Only when he has that notepad he is safe.
And he must be safe so he can cover for you.
Where are you going again?
Are you going to meet Director Jang again?
Are you going to his house?
Then let me meet Mrs. Jung.
She doesn't answer my calls these days.
Why do you need to meet her?
- She didn't give me the money. - What?
Are you getting paid for doing weird things again?
What do you mean by weird things?
It's fair compensation for my labor.
I faced a tremendous threat...
and got her Jung Woo's notepad.
Notepad?
How did that notepad look like?
Why?
How is my mom doing?
She doesn't eat and keeps sleeping.
Is that so?
(Ppoki)
Hello.
Yes. Jung Woo's notepad.
My mom has it?
All right.
Then where did she put it?
When did you get home?
Oh, just now.
Do you happen to have Jung Woo's notepad?
What's that?
I need to get more sleep. You can go out.
My mom can't remember it.
Her mind seems to come and go,
but she can't remember that part.
If she has taken the notepad from him in secret,
it must be somewhere in the house.
I'll keep looking for it, so Park, I mean,
you should look for it too when you're here, Ko Bok Hee.
All right.
Ko Bok Hee?
Park Bok Hee or Ko Bok Hee.
It's equally tacky.
But...
they started searching for the notepad too?
Geez.
Where did she hide it?
I'm here.
I'm here, Mrs. Jung.
It's me.
I brought ingredients for mapa tofu today.
Do you like tofu?
Sit down.
All right.
Don't be like this to me.
It's making me uncomfortable.
You don't have to be.
I only come when I have the time.
I don't want my son to see me at my lowest, nor to you.
What if...
you thought of me as a close friend...
or a caregiver?
Do you not...
hold a grudge against me?
Of course, I do.
You did some wrong things to me,
but instead of being fond of me,
you detested me in every way.
So I hated you.
But you are Director Jang's mom.
So I will forgive you.
What do you like about Si Kyung so much?
Director Jang?
He's warmhearted...
You think he's warmhearted?
He's as cold as ice.
He isn't. I wouldn't say that of your son.
He's warm all over.
Yesterday...
I mean,
if you treat him the way you did to your friend,
and be frank with him,
he'd be warm and cozy.
What?
He can be like that.
Even if my kids and I...
are lousy and feel so small,
when he shows up, he will light up the room.
And I wouldn't feel sad anymore.
He's like the warm spring sun that thaws winter.
He is the only one...
who makes me feel that way.
Since you brought him into this world and raised him,
I like you, Mrs. Jung.
You might not have seen that side of him...
as you have been apart for long.
But he's far from being cold. He has a gentle heart.
And he can be cute.
Gosh. I was rambling again.
Then I'll go and make lunch now.
Keep it simple.
I liked the noodles.
Pardon?
If you have the noodles from yesterday, make that.
Tell Si Kyung to come over and join us.
I'll do that.
Mom said she wants the three of us to have lunch?
Yes.
"Tell Si Kyung to come over and join us."
That's what she said.
Mrs. Jung, I mean,
Mother really said that.
So hurry home.
Okay.
This is serious.
What is it? Aren't you feeling well?
You should...
get married.
Come again?
Did you just give us your approval?
I thought my consent didn't matter.
No, it is. How could it not be?
I knew you'd open up to me someday...
but I didn't know it'd be this soon.
You know how older people can be stubborn.
What did you say?
So, they don't like going back on...
what they have said. They hate it.
But you're so cool, Mrs. Jung.
Keep quiet.
You're chattering away. Why would you be so talkative?
The noodles will get soggy.
Okay.
Thanks, Mom.
That being said, set a date for the parents to meet.
I will.
Sure.
(My Wonderful Life)
Do you know how difficult dementia is for people around them?
Listen to her. She makes me want to go back on my permission.
The trial's on tomorrow afternoon. But something's strange.
Neither the judge nor the prosecutor is buying into me.
Could you get arrested?
I can get her out to China soon, so let her know.
Buy whatever she wants to eat.
No one lives there.
She'll run away if she finds out.
Do you think I say this because I'm straying?
Let's go downstairs then.
