Thank you...
for only taking it this far with my aunt.
We're finally being punished...
for the sins we committed.
Back then, we had no idea this would happen.
We'll be hurting our children once more.
We started this,
so we must finish it too.
(Episode 30)
- Let's go. - Got it.
Come on.
What is he doing?
I guess he's climbing over the wall.
As the son from a noble family?
- My goodness. - My goodness.
Hurry and go.
The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed...
Hey, why aren't you answering my calls?
If something happens to me, call the police right away.
If I get caught, they will bury me in the ground.
Don't tell my daughters.
What do we do?
I don't know what he's doing, but I guess we should do as he says.
He wants to keep it a secret from us.
I don't feel good about this.
Gwang Nam, wait here.
- What are you going to do? - I have an idea.
Just stay still. Don't do anything.
Make it quick!
I can have a new tooth implanted.
Dad...
My goodness. Please wait.
Gwang Nam!
Dad.
Gwang Nam...
Cheol Soo, are you in there?
Cheol Soo?
What do we do?
Get rid of them.
Dad.
Oh, dear. Please spare us, sir.
Please spare at least my daughter's life.
I don't mind getting killed here. Please let my daughter go.
Stay quiet.
Don't harm my dad!
I'm begging you, sir.
Please let her go.
Dad, please don't beg.
Why would you beg at these jerks?
Dad, keep your pride.
You insolent brats! I'm from a noble family.
What are you talking about?
Are you an independent activist or what?
I've never seen a father and daughter together as thieves before.
So...
let me see the face of the daughter from a noble family.
Gosh. Darn it.
Look at you being all cheeky.
I guess you don't fear anything.
That's right. I have no fear. Don't mess with my dad!
Gwang Nam, stop it.
Why did you follow me in the first place?
You just ended up risking your own life.
I said keep quiet!
Dad.
I'm going to kill you all.
Who is that fool?
- Get rid of her. - Yes, boss.
Dad.
You little...
Gwang Nam, take Dad out of here.
No, I can't leave you alone.
Go ahead and hit me.
Gwang Tae.
- Gosh. - Are you all right?
If we keep them alive, they'll call the police, right?
No, we won't call the police. I promise.
Please spare my girls' lives. You can take my life.
- Take care of them. - Goodness.
I'm sorry. It's all because of me.
Please forgive your stupid father.
- Dad. - Dad.
- What? - What's going on?
Here.
- We're over here! - Darn it.
Stay there!
Arrest them all.
Search every hole and corner of the house and the front yard.
- Hold still. - Darn it.
- Gosh. - Don't move.
Who do we have here?
It's been a while, Detective.
What are you doing here?
- Were you... - We're not part of them.
The thing is...
Detective, my dad has been repairing this house.
And he found them suspicious. So we came to catch them.
This is the evidence.
That's true.
It's not that we're here to steal the money.
We rushed here after getting a tip-off, but you were even faster.
I guess about three million dollars are buried in the ground.
I know that. Three million in the ground.
Two million between the walls.
And another three million under the toilet.
They hid 10 million dollars all over the house.
10 million dollars?
Then, Detective, are we going to receive some reward?
Like when we turn in lost money.
That's right.
But the thing is, all the money here is counterfeit.
- What? - What?
- Counterfeit? - Counterfeit?
They are...
the manufacturer and supplier of counterfeit money.
Anyway, what you did is commendable. So we are going to give you a call.
You will be receiving an award for good citizenship.
Where were you earlier?
I was going to call some martial artists I know,
but they weren't available.
Dad.
I have no face to show to you guys.
I'm utterly ashamed.
We all are the same.
I'm too ashamed to face my ancestors.
I was digging the ground blinded by money.
If someone saw me there...
No one saw you. I was the only one there.
I guess I was out of my mind.
I wasn't aware of the power of money.
And it was counterfeit money too.
I've lived my whole life with the pride in my family,
but it's all gone.
When I saw people who tarnished their reputation for money,
I didn't understand them and even felt bad for them.
But I'm no better than them.
I'm even worse than them.
I didn't know I was such a greedy, pathetic man.
They say all things yield to money.
And you had your reasons.
You wanted the money for our sakes.
You tried to save my life even when getting beaten up.
Dad. This is a secret, right?
This is just between the three of us.
I will appreciate that.
This is too embarrassing to tell others.
We have nothing to be embarrassed about.
Gwang Nam, it feels like we've become a lot more intimate.
Those who do wrong things share a close bond with one another.
You're right. They're loyal too.
You were pretty good at fighting.
We'd have been in huge trouble if it hadn't been for you.
Dad, I don't need to participate in the Olympics, do I?
You told me to quit training,
but see how useful it was.
Whatever you learn is bound to come in handy one day.
Yes. You are right.
Sleep well, Gwang Nam. I'll go upstairs.
Gwang Tae.
- What? - Why do I feel like this?
Me too.
I feel so sorry for Dad.
My heart breaks for him.
He used to be more upright than a bamboo pole but now...
Because we're a mess,
our old Dad's getting into all sorts of stuff.
He even resorted to stealing.
He never even looked at money on the ground.
I've never seen him so crazy about cash.
I've made up my mind.
Whatever it takes, I won't let Dad steal again.
Me either. Gwang Tae.
Let's do this.
Let's build our family back up.
A woman? As if.
I don't have the time for that.
Who did you talk to all night, then?
You saw me?
It was... It was about work.
You're my own son,
but how do you defend clients when you're such a bad liar?
Lawyers don't lie. Everything's based on evidence.
If we lie, we're penalized.
Would you talk all night about work?
With a huge grin?
Tell me the truth. Who is it?
It's no one.
It is a woman.
My gosh. What woman would a single dad have to talk to?
I'm not trying to pry.
I just want to know what she's like.
Is she able to raise Blessing, and is she able to tend to you?
We have to be sure about that.
You divorced one wife and the second died.
Your third one must be a good woman.
You were born with a dreadful fate.
That darn fortuneteller.
When she said you'd marry thrice, I cursed her out as I left.
Now I see she was so very right.
The scallion kimchi's great. It's seasoned just right.
I can taste the fish sauce.
I might gain back the 18kg.
Is it that witchy thing?
You know a witch?
Some things can't be explained. There could be witches.
You're evading me. It must be her.
Did she say she'll raise Blessing?
She said she can't even keep a dog. She hates collecting dog poop.
Looking after a baby will be much worse.
You must wipe up its vomit, change its dirty diapers,
nurse it all night if it's sick,
and feed it on time.
Will she dress him, wash him, and put him to sleep?
I didn't ask.
What?
If you end up going back to her,
your dad will jump out of his grave.
How can he jump out when he doesn't have a grave?
For Blessing's sake, you can't go back to her.
Raising a child isn't for everyone.
The carer's personality, character,
and morals are very important.
Go on a blind date this weekend.
My friend's church friend knows a lovely...
Forget it.
Will you stay single, then? When you're still so young?
Who would take in a single dad?
Who wouldn't? You're a handsome lawyer.
Even I'd line up for you.
Only you would.
If you had a daughter, would you tell her to marry me?
I better do something about this.
I'll meet her and shove some sense into her.
Where did you go last night?
Dad went out with us on a date.
I feel so left out, not having a dad.
What's wrong, Dad?
What? Oh, it's nothing.
Cheol Soo, I decided not to get married.
Why not?
That's a bolt out of the blue.
I just don't want to, so I won't.
You can't call it off just because you don't want to marry.
We even bought dresses.
And practiced a song.
I was single my whole life. Why bother now?
The idea of having to baby an old man just put me off.
You finally got some sense back.
Is this your idea or did you guys agree on it?
I suggested we call it off.
Is it because Dol Se's penniless?
Why must you keep asking, mister?
Well done, Bong Ja. Why marry so late in life?
You say that because you were married many times.
That's all you need to know. Now finish your food.
Cheol Soo, I'll get you a warmer bowl of soup.
Auntie called off the wedding. We practiced the song for nothing.
Auntie.
Sit down. I'll bring you some soup.
- Let's talk outside. - You be quiet.
(Ilmiri Jjimdak)
You studied the recipe for days. Is it ready at last?
It smells just amazing.
Why have you been so out of sorts all day?
Are you expecting someone?
I'm expecting customers. Who else?
Gong Chae.
Hi there, Ttu Gi.
Is this a new recipe?
Yes. It's made with tomato sauce.
How is it?
Everything you cook is good.
I'm glad you think it's good.
Do you think it'll sell?
Yes. It'll be a hit. You should have some too.
I had more than enough.
Did you say you were at Haeundae Orphanage?
Yes.
I'm from there too.
Are you really? No wonder.
We're orphanage alumni.
It's good to meet a friend.
Me too.
You can come over whenever you want to see me.
Mom told me not to see you again.
You can see me in secret.
Why are you so nice to me?
Do I need a reason?
Are you really seven years old?
Why? Do you think I lied about my age?
I look older, don't I?
Not at all.
I'm just seven,
but I've been through so much that I feel like I'm nine.
That's too bad.
You've been through so much that you look old for your age.
Why should we struggle so much when there's not much to life?
Your mom. Does she work?
I don't think so.
How much does she owe you?
Why ask?
Can't you wait until I grow up?
I'll make money and pay you back.
I'll sign a contract if you want me to.
You'll sign a contract?
(Mushroom samgyetang meal kits available!)
I'll take two of those.
Welcome. Give me a moment.
You bought a couple last time. Did you enjoy it?
If you like it...
Enjoy the food. Goodbye.
I have you
Isn't he practicing too much?
I think so too. I'm worried he'll ruin his voice.
Whatever the world says
Okay, okay, there's no giving up
Good luck to my life
Ye Seul.
Don't try too hard. Take a break every now and then.
How many times do you think Na Hoon A sang "Hometown Station?"
How many times did Cho Yong Pil sing "Return to Busan Port?"
Mr. Tak said that...
the second try is an improvement from the first,
and the 11th is an improvement from the 10th.
My goal is to reach the finals of this audition.
Tae Ri, you need to practice your dance moves.
I brought some groceries. Put them in the fridge.
Ye Seul.
I said all I wanted to say, and I haven't changed my mind.
What was your mom's dying message?
I said I'd whisper it to you on your death bed.
It doesn't mean anything.
You want what you want and I want what I want.
Stop bringing me groceries.
I told you that I do this because of what Mom said.
- "Ye Seul." - Forget it.
Hi, Cheol Soo.
Are you at home?
Stay right there. I'm coming over.
Tell the truth.
What is it about?
We have our reasons.
What are those reasons? Talk to me.
Why was the wedding called off?
It's your fault, isn't it?
You don't need to know.
Is it money?
We had a little argument, that's all.
What?
Who are you to argue with her?
Can't you suck it up and give her...
what she needs when the wedding is right around the corner?
Just agree to whatever she says.
A real man doesn't argue with his woman.
So what now?
This is killing me as is.
Who knew things would get this messy?
What do you mean it got messy? Just tell me.
Did she catch you with the eel lady?
Of course not! It's just that...
Cheol Soo would kill us if he finds out.
- Well... - Yes, go on.
It's my prostate.
Did you tell her?
Is that why she called off the wedding?
Who would be fond of it?
Don't you worry. I'll get it fixed and marry Bong Ja.
Neither of us has anybody left,
so we'll battle out any issues that come our way.
Who knew one's prostate could create such a hurdle?
Can't they invent the perfect cure?
Are the research companies sleeping on it?
Don't tell me you went alone that day.
Of course not. How could I go alone?
What's with the voicemail you left?
You told me to call the police.
I left the message but didn't go.
- Cheol Soo. - Yes?
Your canine tooth.
Why does it seem like it's missing?
(Yeso Pretty Smile Dentist)
(Implants)
I ended up spending money that I didn't have to spend.
This is wrong.
Did you tell Cheol Soo?
I told him we just fought.
He can't know.
I'd be criticized, but my niece will have to move abroad.
You only care for your niece, don't you?
Do I only mean that much to you?
It's been settled.
You saw your son that day.
Didn't you hear what he said to me?
We shouldn't marry even if Gwang Sik wasn't involved.
He thinks I'm the reason why his mother died.
We can't fight this unless we're on the same page.
What will people say when they find out...
about our messy family business?
I've moved on already.
Well, that was fast.
I didn't mention this before,
but I knew from the very beginning...
that we weren't meant to be.
Maybe I already knew in my heart when you failed...
to come to me multiple times.
You should move on too as fast as possible.
Why though when I shouldn't?
We should never see each other again.
It's too hard.
(Bang Gi)
Goodness, Bang Gi. How's business?
Good enough.
The weather's hot these days,
so it must be hard to make...
tteokbokki and fritters in front of the stove.
Can you help me out?
I need to go into self-quarantine starting today.
What?
My goodness. Are you all right?
I'll be fine.
It's just that one of my customers had COVID-19.
Could you have me for just two weeks?
Yes, of course, I should help.
(Menbosha, Twisted potato)
- The potato? - Yes.
- Should I roll it in sugar?
- Yes. - Sure.
Here you go.
- Thank you. - Take care.
Get your delicious twisted doughnuts!
The tteokbokki is just as good.
(Gallery Town Blueprint)
Be gentle while cleaning those.
Are these really that expensive?
So they say.
Lee Kun Hee's private collection mesmerized the world,
so I should get started on mine as well.
I should settle the debt with the homeowner.
We need a house like this in order to marry off Ki Jin.
Right.
What are you doing?
I know about the challenges you took on since a young age...
in hopes of raising me well.
I'm also aware that I'm your pride and hope.
You even sent me to study abroad,
so I'm sorry to have disappointed you. I really am.
I've always felt guilty about it.
And at that point, talk about filial piety.
You're like a father to me.
And I promise to be good to you just like you were good to me.
I'm grateful...
to hear you say that.
You've finally come to your senses.
You'll get rid of that riffraff and start over then.
A girl like her will ruin your life forever.
That's what I thought so too.
That she's a riffraff who's quick to use her fists.
But she's the real deal though.
She was just born in the wrong era and society.
Again with the society.
What did it ever do to you to make you blame it all the time?
I survived that society you're always complaining about.
That's because you're special.
Normal people like us need to get lucky in life.
Pung Jin, it's my only wish.
Let me have this and I'll do anything else you ask.
She's the only person who can fill the void in my heart.
She's the kind of woman I've been waiting for.
Don't give him any food.
Yes, sir.
But...
You should never be on an empty stomach.
Take your time, okay? You don't want indigestion.
Here.
- Can I get a soda? - Sure.
- It still didn't work? - No.
Do you have any more good ideas?
I can't let this hinder our marriage project.
Of course not.
Either way, we'll always be a team.
Nice!
You're smart, so think of something.
We'll try to come up with an idea.
Wait!
Did you think of one?
You know me.
I know how I can get your brother to like me.
You're the best.
The night is deep, sir.
What should I do about him?
I think the best option is to send him back to the US.
(2021 K Real Singer Audition)
This might all be in vain
But I will forgive you with the love I have
Ye Seul, do well today.
Got it.
Tae Ri, don't be so nervous yourself.
I'm not.
Gosh, I forgot to tell Gwang Sik.
Later.
She'll be upset if I don't call her.
- Gwang Sik. - Gwang Sik!
Hi, Gwang Sik.
Ye Seul, say hi.
Where are you right now?
Is something up?
I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, but we're at an audition.
Can you wish him luck?
I'll be rooting for you. Here, take my energy.
We'll do well!
Greet her, will you?
We'll go out for entrails if he passes the first round.
Care to join us?
We don't have the time for this.
- Number 313, get ready to perform. - It's you.
Here.
- We can do it! - We can do it!
Han Ye Seul and Lee Tae Ri. This way.
Okay, okay, it's okay
Whatever the world says
Okay, okay, there's no giving up
Good luck to my life
On the stage that is called life
Everyone has their own role
On the stage of my life
I am the lead
Wherever I went, I was number two or three
It caused a lot of heartache
But from now on
To each other
We are number one
Okay, okay, it's okay
The tteokbokki here is good.
I'll learn how to make it and cook it for you someday.
It's nice to go on dates like this.
Same here.
You didn't like snack food places before...
and refused to walk outside to keep your skin out of the sun.
But I hear the sun is good for you.
I asked you to bring Blessing out so that he can get some fresh air.
He's having fun all on his own.
That reminds me. We used to eat snacks like this...
when we dated back in the day.
Not a cute place like this, but a dowdy one.
That's right.
We dated for 3 years and stayed married for 15.
I had forgotten about it all,
but the memories came back to me as I was moving out of the house.
As if they happened yesterday.
You mentioning it brought memories back for me too.
How time flew like that got lost on me.
You stuttered in my presence at first...
and the coffee cup shook vigorously in your hand.
Why though?
That's what happens when you're nervous.
I couldn't believe a lawyer could be like that,
so I thought you were a fraud.
Look at us talking.
We talked more than we did throughout our entire marriage.
You're right.
Isn't the work you're doing taking a toll on you?
You usually need your morning sleep.
It's fun. And I like earning the money.
I think I sleep less now too.
Is it delicious?
Take a look. Don't Blessing and I look alike?
One might think I'm his mom. Right?
You're actually not wrong.
- Really? - Yes.
His birth mother would be upset to hear that.
I don't get how she could've left such a beauty behind.
She must've fought to stay alive.
Blessing might not be able to talk, but it must be hard on him too.
The mother who hugged, fed, and put him to sleep...
just suddenly left him, so how could it not be?
Grown-ups can at least talk about it,
but the little one can't.
Just thinking about it breaks my heart.
It must've been hard on you too.
At first, I didn't know what to do.
I didn't have any experience.
Blessing wouldn't eat or sleep, so I was lost.
I was so worried that I took him to a doctor...
only to be told that he was under stress too.
Now that his mother's gone,
he probably didn't have the will to live.
So this is what I told him.
"Blessing,"
"let's do the best we can to hold on."
"These are the cards you were dealt."
"It's how your life was designed."
I cried while feeding him,
while changing his diaper,
and while driving him around the block.
We both cried our eyes out.
It was quite the scene.
Could I...
be Blessing's mother?
What?
I want to be Blessing's mom.
Could I do that?
Ye Seul, the results will be announced.
What's taking them so long?
Thank you for waiting until this late hour.
It took a while to add up the scores.
Since we're all busy here, I'll call out the numbers...
of the contestants that made the first cut.
- Number 1, 15, 37. - Nice!
- 127, 142, 280. - I made it!
- 282, 310, 313. - Yes!
- 357, and 399. - Ye Seul!
That'll be all.
Ye Seul, you made it to the main round!
You made it in the top 50.
All promising singers around the country participated,
and now you just have to beat half of them next.
Good job, guys!
We'll keep moving forward.
But don't tell anyone until anything's for sure.
Got it. Talking about it will only jinx it.
Why was your phone turned off?
Why do you want to know?
Can we get a bottle of soju?
Sure.
Ye Seul,
I'm close to 60 now.
They say we live until 100,
but it won't be long before I lose the energy I have.
Being young, you'll have many other chances in life,
but this is my last.
Because of me, her life was ruined.
You hate her for making your mom's life miserable,
but I never contacted her when your mother was sick.
This isn't me bragging.
I didn't contact her for ten years after that.
I acted properly and was never out of line.
So what? It's nothing to brag about.
Only a piece of garbage...
would've contacted her right after mom's death.
Because of me, she lived her life...
without ever getting married or having kids.
I want to finally give her what she deserves,
so please take a step back for me.
What about me though?
Must you let...
your own son live with the same sorrow?
If I'm forced to end it with Gwang Sik,
I'll live the same way you did for decades.
Is that what you want for me?
Do you want me to live in sorrow...
only loving a woman I can't have?
You said it was painful for you.
Is that what you want for me?
Do you?
I was curious, that's all.
How did your audition go?
I didn't make the cut.
Don't be too disappointed. I'm sure you'll make the next one.
I'll get going then.
What are you doing? Stop this.
Are you insane? Why are you being this way?
You said we were nothing.
That we can easily break up since we haven't even slept together.
So how's this for an answer?
You've gone crazy.
That's how I intend to be from now on.
Could I...
be Blessing's mother?
(Calls)
Please give me some time to think.
Don't you ever fall ill, my baby.
Here.
What are you drinking?
My knees hurt, you see.
I think drinking these helped.
People take a handful of supplements when they grow old.
That's how we all live longer now.
Must one take supplements just to live until 100?
Of course, we should. We should do everything we can.
It must be pretty tiring...
to deep-fry food in this hot weather.
I should help Bang Gi any way I can.
I just hope nothing happens while he's in self-quarantine.
We should be more careful too.
I wonder when we'll live in normalcy again.
Mankind will prevail.
We survived all the other numerous diseases.
Bang Gi sure is relentless.
He sells twisted doughnuts during the day,
works at a barbecue restaurant in the evening,
and works as a driver at night.
He works around the clock to provide for his three children.
I'm proud but I also feel bad for him.
It made me realize that I should turn my life around too.
Ttu Gi gets older every day,
and I should be a mom she can be proud of.
Bong Ja, isn't it funny?
Who knew that knowing how...
to deep-fry doughnuts could come in handy?
Mom ordered me to fry them...
and went off on dates with the doughnut guy.
I know.
Auntie, I hear you got a part-time job.
Yes.
She's deep-frying twisted doughnuts at Bang Gi's place.
When she's the master at avoiding tough work?
I guess you'd do anything for a child.
Tell me about it.
Auntie, do you have any books on the economy?
Check over there. You'll find a few.
You've never once read a book in your life.
Bong Ja, are you sure you don't have any regrets?
You even got yourself a dress.
I don't.
Marriage is what you do when you're clueless and young,
not when you're old.
We come into this world empty-handed and leave it the same way.
We all die alone too.
Wait. So this is where Dad's journal is.
Don't look at it.
What is it?
It's nothing.
Cheol Soo, you should burn it.
I can't.
Then do what you want with it.
I can't hold onto it any longer.
Meet me outside.
(Han Dol Se)
No.
I'm outside the building. Should I head up there instead?
Are you drunk?
I only had one glass.
Bong Ja,
should we go somewhere and die together?
Why would I die when I have my own building?
Who knows what kind of riffraff would own it next?
You may have something to live for since you have a building,
but my life is meaningless without you.
If I can't have you,
then I could die right here, right now.
Death doesn't scare me anymore.
I went through hoops to live what time I have left with you,
so my life's not worth living now.
Loving you was the sole purpose of my life.
That's enough.
You should understand where I'm coming from...
and side with me on this matter.
How can you be so cold?
I know you want to live with me too.
Enough with the nonsense. Head home and go to bed.
If I can't have you,
then I could die right here, right now.
Loving you was the sole purpose of my life.
Are you heading out?
Oh, someone wanted to see me briefly.
What is it? Why aren't you in bed?
It's nothing.
What did you do with the journal?
I took care of it.
So Bong Ja...
Is there something you want to say to me?
Well,
men are all the same at that age.
What?
I'm not trying to defend Dol Se,
but urine streams weaken as we grow older.
They're not as strong as they used to be.
Dol Se broke many toilets back in the day, you know.
So don't find that to be a deal-breaker.
He's a poor guy.
After losing his wife to an illness,
he hardly took care of himself for about ten years.
He ended up having a stroke, you know.
(Shining Sun Fish Market)
After barely recovering from the stroke,
he did everything in his power to regain his health.
That health scare he had is why he became determined...
to care for you until the day you die.
I know he lacks in many ways,
but please take pity in him and cut him a break.
You're the only one who can take him in...
and he's the only one who can take you in.
(Lawyer Bae Byun Ho)
- Let's sit. - But I don't want to.
See?
You can't eat at places like this if you have children.
I could never take care of a dog.
I'd have to clean its poop, bathe it,
dry its fur, take it to the vet,
and take it out for regular walks...
with poop bags in my hand.
That's definitely a deal-breaker for me.
You know,
I was on edge these past few days.
I wasn't this afraid even when I took the college entrance exam.
But on my way here,
I felt really nervous.
And I was excited.
I never imagined...
that you would say that.
I really appreciate what you said,
but I'm not the man I used to be.
I'm a divorced man with a son.
I know.
All I care about now is Blessing.
To be honest with you, I can't think of anything else.
I know.
I thought of that too.
I understand your concerns because I even refused to have a baby.
In those days,
I was really pathetic and self-centered.
I wasn't mature enough to raise a child.
But I've changed.
I guess it's true that people change after a brush with death.
It's not like I proposed to you with no plans.
I was a burden to you for 15 years.
So now, I want to be of help to you.
I know how you are feeling.
And I can see that you've changed.
But this is a real-life problem. This isn't just about feelings.
Once you become his stepmom, you can never turn things back.
He's a little baby now,
but he will soon go to school and go through puberty.
You will have a lot of stuff to do as a mom.
If there's a chance you might want to give up,
you shouldn't even begin in the first place.
I don't want Blessing to be hurt twice.
This is about a person's life.
When I first found out about Blessing,
what really bothered me wasn't that you cheated on me,
but the fact that you had a baby...
with another woman.
I blamed myself thinking it was all my fault.
I divorced you...
because I thought I was foolish enough to lose all I had.
The elders say one should get married and have children...
before one becomes old enough to know better, and it's true.
I didn't know what you wanted.
I didn't even cook for you.
I just tried to squeeze money out of you.
You had nothing to take comfort from.
I don't know how you could put up with me for 15 years.
I want to make up...
for all the things I have done.
I want to redeem myself by taking good care of Blessing.
If his mom was alive, I wouldn't even dare to think about this.
I guess this might be the last chance I have.
I'll make Blessing...
feel like I'm his real mom.
Byun Ho, I really want to do this.
I want to take good care of you and Blessing.
I don't want to let this chance go.
Please let me be Blessing's mom.
Well...
You know we have a lot of things to get through.
And you know we have to convince Mom.
Are you sure you can deal with all that?
So are you saying yes?
You're the only one who wants to be with a single dad.
Gosh, I have no other choice.
I won't drink this.
Give me your hands.
Stop crying.
Thank you, honey.
As long as you're on my side, I can get through anything.
I'll deal with Mother.
Let's do that.
Don't cry.
I swore to Dad.
Whether it's a chance, money, or a person, I will never give up...
what's precious to me once I decide to keep it with me.
And that's you.
Auntie, it's me.
Do you have time tonight?
Auntie.
I wanted to drink with you.
And I want to drink with you too.
Do they sell drinks here at night?
Yes. Do you want some beer?
Sure.
Auntie.
If you're really over him,
can I be with Ye Seul?
I don't think I'll ever be able to meet someone like him again.
Slow down.
I've been drinking quite a lot, but I just don't feel drunk.
Well...
Gwang Sik.
Yes?
He came to see me last night.
He'd rather go somewhere with me and take our lives.
He says he could die with no regrets if he didn't have me.
He would trade his everything and even his life for me.
There's nothing great about me,
but when we grow old,
he wants to tend to me until he dies.
I've never had that kind of love in my entire life.
He's the only man who ever said...
that I have the scent of flowers, not the smell of fish.
When Mom forced me to get married,
I held out getting all beaten up.
I always said I'd moved on and gotten over him,
but it was never true.
I tried to curse him and blamed him,
but I always had feelings for him.
When I wake up in the morning,
he's the first person I think of.
It's always been like that for 35 years.
Who else would call an old woman like me their baby?
Even my mom never called me like that.
I believe he's the last love of my life.
Gwang Sik.
Should I just get married?
Can I set all other reasons aside...
and just get married like you said?
Sure.
I want you to do that.
Can I ask you a favor?
I'd like you to find a place for two people there.
A woman, of course.
We're married yet. Please make it quick.
I will get on the ship with you.
I really appreciate it.
(Shining under Starlight)
Come on up.
Sit. I made your favorite kimchi soup.
You like hot soup.
Soothe your hangover.
Forget everything I said last night.
Auntie.
Don't say a word. Just eat.
Hey, are you up?
I'll bring it straight to your restaurant.
Don't demand too much of a discount.
When do I ever charge a huge margin?
I know you know.
I'll head to work soon. Bye.
Hello.
Really?
Thank you. I'll be there right away.
I'll call you when I leave.
Auntie, I'm at the bus terminal.
You may deny it, but I saw how you feel.
I'll come back when your wedding date's set.
(Closed Temporarily)
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message...
She just left on a business trip.
Where to?
She said she's off to look for mushrooms.
I don't know where.
Sir, I'm borrowing the truck!
I need this truck today! Hey, Ye Seul!
(Moving Specialists)
I love Sokcho, where we went together.
I always want to go back.
Who's there?
Why are you here without calling, darling?
What now? What'll you do about it now?
Why? What's wrong?
My niece left home this morning.
- What? - Why did you take it this far?
Why are you giving me such a hard time?
What if something bad happens to her?
What if her dad finds out?
She'll be fine. Don't worry too much.
How can I not worry?
Your niece isn't that soft.
She survived on her own for a whole year overseas.
She'll take a break and then she'll come back.
Don't worry too much or you'll fall ill.
She won't even answer her phone.
Does he have a place to sleep?
Does she have food to eat?
Why worry about sleep when she's only be gone for hours?
Why do you think she left?
It's so we can get married in peace.
How can you say that at a time like this?
We don't even know if she's dead or alive.
We're the worst for each other.
You torture me my whole life!
Bong Ja!
Auntie. What's the matter?
I don't know how to explain this to you,
but then I have to tell you.
Just tell us straight up.
Gwang Sik didn't go on a business trip.
What is it, then?
I don't know how to put this.
It's about Unit 301.
Oh, right. He came looking for her earlier.
They said they broke up, but it seems all weird.
The truth is, Unit 301's dad is my fiance.
He's my ex-fiance now.
Wait, Auntie, I'm confused.
Unit 301's dad...
is our future uncle?
No way.
There's a love square?
You can't do that.
I know.
Is that why you called off your wedding?
Is that why Gwang Sik broke up with Unit 301?
Yes. She told me to get married...
because they won't.
It's all my fault.
Why did I say what I did?
What did you say?
I asked her if I could get married.
Why did I have to say that when I was drunk?
So she upped and left to show you her resolve?
Who did you say is showing her resolve?
Well...
Gwang Sik wants to show us how determined she is to succeed,
that's all.
That's right, Dad.
Yesterday or today,
did you see a woman on her own here or nearby?
Thanks anyway.
- What is it? - Ye Seul.
Why are you so hard to reach? You're not at home either.
Where are you? What about practice?
Ye Seul, get over here quick. I think we'll make it big!
Your preliminary score was really high,
and the judges gave good feedback.
Get over here. We have a lot to discuss.
What?
Ye Seul. Hey!
What's wrong?
He told me not to call first, then he hung up.
Is he out of his mind?
We went on a sisters' last trip before Gwang Nam got married...
to a small waterfall next to Daecheon Beach.
I don't remember its name.
(35 missed calls from Number 1)
Gwang Sik.
Ye Seul has to enter the final round of an audition,
but he's preoccupied with something...
and he put everything aside and left home.
(Number 1)
- Where are you? - You don't need to know.
Where are you?
Don't look for me.
Why are you so stupid?
What are you doing when you have an audition final?
Why would you throw away such a great opportunity?
I don't care. I asked where you are.
Because of me, Mr. Tak dropped you and you missed out on 15 TV ads.
And now an audition.
Do you want me to become an obstacle in your life?
Why...
Why do you think only of yourself?
Must I live with the guilt forever?
Opportunities like this don't come around often.
I don't care about that. Tell me where you are.
I need to see you.
I'll go back once I see you.
Tell me where you are!
I'm headed to Daecheon Beach.
I won't stop looking until I find you.
Why go to Daecheon? I'm not there.
I'm at...
I'm at Sokcho.
Where we were together.
I'll come over, so...
Stay there.
(Turn with caution)
Why is he coming when I said I'd go to him?
(Number 1)
The receiver cannot be reached. Please leave a message...
(Revolutionary Sisters)
What do you mean Ye Seul can't be reached?
He even moved out.
Why have you been looking for the rice cake store owner's son?
Is it to kill him?
I can't go back home anyway,
so we'll just move in together.
My brother will take us in once we're pregnant.
Your samgyetang is delicious.
- Thank you. - I hope we get along.
What are you doing here? What is this? Get out of here!
- Who said I wanted this? - But...
