(Episode 82)
Goodness. I didn't know it would be so hard to marry my mom off.
Does a wedding have to be that complicated?
Gosh, I don't think I can ever do that again.
Seok Gu, thank you for your help.
Don't say that. You did all the work, Cho Hee.
Honestly, I didn't do anything.
All I did was stand next to them for a photo.
Still, you didn't get drunk this time, you know.
Come on. Why would you bring up what I did a long time ago?
Seok Gu, you caused so much trouble at our wedding.
You know we couldn't even get a single nice wedding photo, right?
I'm sorry for that, okay?
I regretted ruining your wedding so much.
I'll make it up to you for the rest of my life, Cho Hee.
Are you serious?
Yes. I promise you.
Then I'll look forward to it, Seok Gu.
Sure.
Ri An, it must've been hard for you to be a flower girl.
No, it wasn't, Dad. I really enjoyed it.
And it was really fun as I did it with Sa Rang.
- Really? - Yes, Dad.
Ri An, can you be the flower girl at my second wedding too?
Sure, Uncle Seok Gu.
Seok Gu, you just said you couldn't do it again.
Well, you never know what tomorrow holds.
Goodness, you brat. Seriously.
Now that Mother isn't here,
this house feels so empty.
I know, right?
It still doesn't feel real that we'll live without her.
I know, but she moved out to become happier,
so let's try to make our days more joyful, Professor Kang.
Let's do that, Senior Manager Seo. Ri An, you too.
Okay, Dad.
Stop it. You guys are making me sad about not having a wife.
Come on, Seok Gu.
Oh, right. Will I have that room all to myself starting today?
- Goodness, you. - Seok Gu, please.
Sleep in the living room, okay?
That's my room from now on.
I mean...
I'd never seen Bae Soo so happy before.
He wouldn't stop smiling. He must've been so happy.
He was smiling from ear to ear.
Ms. Na looked gorgeous at the wedding, you know.
The two of them looked so sweet together.
I was surprised to know how strong Ms. Na was.
She promised me she would give me her bouquet,
but she threw it too far, and Sun Hae caught it.
Oh, I didn't know that.
I'm sorry. Had I known it, I wouldn't have caught it.
Don't be sorry. The bouquet found the right person.
They say that you'll stay single for three years if you can't...
get married within six months after catching a bouquet.
Bo Ri, you should be relieved that you didn't catch it.
Listen. If you can't get married after catching a bouquet...
when you don't even have a boyfriend,
you would stay single for the rest of your life.
What makes you think I don't have...
Forget it. I don't believe what you said.
Stop it, you two.
Sun Hae must feel bad about catching the bouquet.
Oh, it's okay. I'm fine.
Hey, you can touch it if you want.
Gosh, I'm so upset.
(Sisters Side Dish)
It's getting late. You must be tired too.
I'll go home by myself.
I should take you home since it's late.
Let's get going.
Oh, my. Hello, Mr. Attorney.
Oh, hello.
Who is she?
Well... She is...
Are you going somewhere?
Yes, I am. Then goodbye.
- Let's go. - Okay.
(Sisters Side Dish, Premium Dry Cleaning)
What's going on?
Are they going to get married or something?
I guess she missed her chance...
to get with that attorney while hesitating.
(Sisters Side Dish)
Why are you talking to yourself? Aren't you going home?
Mr. Soo.
About the attorney whose mother runs this side dish store.
Is he getting married?
Oh, you must have seen him with his girlfriend.
They looked great together, right?
I don't think so.
By the way, what does his girlfriend do?
The owner of the side dish store told me...
that she was a college professor or something like that.
A college professor?
She's very elegant and graceful.
I think she's perfect for the attorney.
You wouldn't know if she'd marry the attorney...
until they walk down the aisle.
Ms. Ma, why would you get mad at me?
You should go now.
I'm out here to lock the door.
She's a professor?
I'll stay a little longer to play with Jun.
Jun seems to want to be with me for longer.
Lately, he seems to like you...
- more than he likes me. - I want to play with him.
Really?
Yes. Whenever you tucked him into bed,
he woke up at night and looked for you.
I should come to see him more often.
- Right, Jun? - Yes.
I'll come more often.
- Let's try this one more time. - Dong Ha.
Yes?
What are your parents like?
They're ordinary people.
And they love each other.
They got married after ten years of dating.
They're still lovey-dovey and enjoy each other's company.
Oh, I see.
I understand.
But why are you asking about my parents?
I'm wondering...
if they know you're seeing me.
Sorry?
Nothing. Never mind.
Here you go.
Now, look. "I need a friend."
It means, "I need a friend."
This person must be a friend like Sa Rang.
- Right? Yes? - Honey.
I'll go to my mom's house to pick up the food gift,
and go straight to Won Ju's house.
Okay.
Mother said she would go there...
as soon as she arrived.
Be there on time with Seok Gu and Ri An, okay?
Oh, really? Then I'll drive you to Mother's house.
That's okay. The traffic is bad at this hour.
Stay home and help Ri An study.
Ri An, see you later.
Okay, Mom. Be safe.
- Okay. - All right, honey. Be safe.
- Okay. See you later. - See you.
Let's continue, Ri An. You get this part, right?
The next one. "Who wants to run away?" It means...
People in Chungcheong Province include braised jumbo shrimp...
in the food gift from the bride's family.
So I made some of it too.
Don't forget to take it with you.
Mom, thank you for this.
You must be busy with other things too.
That's okay. It's for my daughter's mother-in-law.
This is the least I should do.
Jang Geum.
I've packed grilled dried pollack and pyeonchae.
I think we just have to pack the fritters once you finish up.
- Good. I'm almost done. - Okay.
Cho Hee, take out the tray to put the fritters on.
Oh, okay.
Oh, right. Mom, after packing this,
I'll be upstairs for a while.
Sure.
- It looks so good. - Put these first.
- It looks delicious. - Indeed.
You're here to pick up the food gift, right?
Yes.
Thank you for attending my mother-in-law's wedding.
Don't mention it.
I saw you came with Sun Hae.
And Sun Hae caught the bouquet.
By any chance, have you made up your mind?
Yes, I have. I'm dating Sun Hae now.
At some point, I started to want to see her...
and think of her so often.
Now, I want to be with her every single day.
That's great. You look happy.
Do I?
Kang Rim.
I'm always on your side. You know that, right?
I'll get going now. Get some rest.
Thank you, Cho Hee. Get there safely.
Okay. Bye.
Won Ju, do you want to try it?
Sure.
It's good...
I mean it's not too bad.
But I'm worried that everything got cold.
Well...
It's because it's usually not made for people to eat it right away.
Shall I heat some up for you?
No, that's not necessary. You don't have to do that.
You seem to like the food, although it got cold.
- Honey. - Well, it's not bad.
Dad is almost home.
Really?
Then we'll be out in a second.
Okay.
- Come on in. - Welcome back.
- Grandma. - Grandpa.
- Hi, Ri An. - Sa Rang, let me give you a hug.
Did you enjoy your trip?
Yes, we did. I see that everyone is here.
We had a great time thanks to you all.
Hyung Do, thank you for booking the hotel.
We slept so well.
Thank you.
I'm glad to hear that.
And we enjoyed delicious food...
at the restaurant that you recommended, Ms. Seo.
We had such a great time.
That's good to hear.
I was worried the food might not suit your palate.
Please go and change into comfortable clothes.
The food is ready.
Right, Mom. Hurry. I'm hungry.
Shall we?
Let's do that.
I'll show you the way. Please follow me.
- Okay. Thanks. - Thank you, Won Ju.
- I'll move your suitcase. - How sweet. Thank you.
This is your room.
Oh, my.
I wanted to replace the furniture and redo the walls.
But Father didn't want that.
So I just decorated the room to create a romantic atmosphere.
Do you like it?
Of course I like it.
You made a lot of effort. I really appreciate this.
It was so much work. I was...
Right. I can tell how hard you worked on this.
Father, please know that I put in a lot of effort.
Of course. You can leave now.
Pardon?
Oh, right. I'm leaving.
Take your time.
Take all the time you need.
Great. My daughter-in-law is so quick-witted.
This is where we're going to stay from now on, right?
Yes, that's right.
Do you think it's too small for the two of us?
Of course not. That's nonsense.
It's just right.
You're right. They say...
that a newlywed couple's room should be small.
Sorry? Oh, my goodness. Stop it.
You stop it.
Come on. Stop it.
- You stop it first. - Come on...
I'm going to make you feel like the happiest woman in the world.
- Stop it, Brad. - Here we go.
Oh, my. Everything looks tasty.
My mother-in-law made all this.
I see. Jang Geum made all this?
No wonder.
You mean the one who actually made the ppageumjang,
Ri An's grandmother on her mother's side, right?
Yes.
Well... She's been running a side dish store for a long time.
Jang Geum was...
such a great cook when she was a little girl too.
I see that she was considerate of me...
and made my hometown food. It all looks so delicious.
Ms. Na, try it. It's just amazing.
I'll do that. Eat a lot, Brad.
Yes. It tastes so great.
I'm glad you like the food.
Father.
"Father"?
She addressed him differently as if she had been waiting for it.
Well... Mother...
I mean, my goodness. The food looks absolutely great.
How was your honeymoon?
Did you two enjoy a romantic time?
Hey, that's embarrassing.
We had such a romantic time...
that we have more than enough love right now.
We'll give you some of it when you leave.
No, I'm fine. You two should enjoy all the love you have.
Let's eat now before the food gets cold.
- Yes, Dad. - Eat up.
- Here you go. - Thank you.
Ri An, eat a lot.
- Ms. Na, eat up. - Okay.
Here you go, Ri An.
Sa Rang, you eat a lot too.
Yes.
Kang Rim, why did you take me here all of a sudden?
How about we listen to some music?
Now I'll read the next story.
The person who sent this letter asked us to read it at this hour.
It's from Seo Kang Rim from Mungil-dong.
"There's a person I've known for a long time."
"She was there for me whenever I faced a hard time..."
"and helped me get through it. She's so precious to me."
"I thought she was a nice person, but didn't have feelings for her."
"But at some point, my heart started to pound..."
"whenever I saw her."
"She was hurt emotionally..."
"for a long time because I didn't realize how I felt about her."
"For that reason, I am sorry and grateful toward her."
"Now I want to spend the rest of my life with her."
It was such a romantic marriage proposal.
- I wish you two forever happiness. - Kang Rim.
And I'll play a song for you.
Here.
The path we'll walk on together...
may not be rosy all the time.
But...
as long as we walk together,
I believe we can overcome anything.
Will you put on these shoes...
and walk with me through the path?
You know...
that you'll stay single for three years...
if you don't get married within six months, right?
Sun Hae.
Let's get married.
Sun Hae, what brings you here at such a late hour?
Exactly. They look as if they have an important announcement to make.
Kang Rim, is everything okay?
Mom.
We decided to get married.
Is that true?
Kang Rim.
Yes, Ms. Oh. You will approve of us getting married, right?
Of course I'll give you my blessing.
I've waited for this moment all this time.
Sun Hae.
Thank you so much...
for not giving up on Kang Rim to the end...
and for staying by his side.
Ms. Oh.
Now I know...
that you and my family...
were meant to become a family.
Your father and Kang Rim's were such close friends too.
I wish...
Dong Geun and Sun Hae's father were here with us now. They would...
have a drink together to celebrate it.
Auntie Poong Geum.
Why would you say such a sad thing...
on a happy day like this?
Sun Hae, congratulations.
I'm really happy for you.
Thank you, Bo Ri.
Ms. Oh.
You'll finally become a member of our family.
I've finally found them.
That con man's family.
While we're struggling like this,
you must be enjoying all your wealth...
A professor?
His child enjoyed luxuries with our money...
and became a professor?
Hold on.
I know who she is.
She is...
She's Professor Choi Sun Hae at Hankang University?
(Cometome)
What? Kang Rim and Sun Hae decided to get married?
Yes. They came home together to tell us the news.
That's great news.
Mom, you must be so happy.
Yes. I'll visit you soon.
Bye.
Ms. Seo, is someone else in your family getting married?
Yes. It's my younger brother this time.
Maybe Ms. Seo's house brings them good luck...
seeing that we keep hearing good news about her family.
Are you talking about your brother who's a lawyer?
Yes.
I wonder who's the lucky lady to be such a great man's wife.
Well... Actually, he's marrying a friend of mine.
That's amazing.
You'll be your friend's sister-in-law.
I know. I never knew that this would happen.
Are you okay with that?
I think it would be a little uncomfortable for me.
Honestly, I felt that way at first.
But now I think it doesn't matter as long as they're happy together.
And I'm happy that my friend whom I trust the most...
will be a member of my family.
True. The couple's happiness is the only thing that matters.
If their families or friends...
meddle in their marriage, it'd only ruin everything.
Anyway, congratulations again, Ms. Seo.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
Thank you, everyone.
Ms. Seo, it's almost our lunch break.
How about we order some pizza?
You guys should eat without me today.
I have to go somewhere.
Okay then.
- Shall we order a pizza? - Just a pizza?
Let's order something else too.
- That's too much. - Not at all.
I can't believe she's been so close to us all along.
Her name is Choi Sun Hae, right?
I want her to pay for...
what her father did wrong.
(Assistant Professor Choi Sun Hae)
Let's get married.
May I help you?
(Hankang University Law School)
You're Han Seul A's mother, aren't you?
What brings you here?
You're Choi Hyung Nam's daughter, right?
Do you know my father?
Yes, I do. I know him very well.
I thought about him every single day for the past 22 years.
I don't understand what you're talking about.
I tried to find him,
so I could have my revenge by any means.
But I found out that he had died.
Well... I don't know what you're here for.
But you've crossed the line.
Don't be disrespectful to my late father...
You won't be able to say that if you see this.
Your father Choi Hyung Nam was...
a con man, a thief, and a murderer.
He caused my husband to die and ruined...
my life and my daughter's. He was a scumbag.
Excuse me.
Clearly, you're mistaken.
My father was not that kind of person.
Leave immediately, or I'll call security.
I knew she'd react like this.
What...
What are you doing now?
Pick it up and open it.
Let's see if you can still say that after you see what's in there.
You'll see when you open it...
that my family wasn't the only family that your father destroyed.
Your fiance's family was involved too.
So don't think of running away.
I'll make sure to be compensated for...
what your father did to us by any means.
Call me once you check the documents.
Don't make me wait for too long...
because I'll go to see your attorney boyfriend.
(Hankang University Law School)
(Hankang University, Department of Urban Engineering)
What? He said he would be at school today.
Where did he go?
I'll just go to see Sun Hae first.
(Choi Sun Hae, Date of Birth: January 10, 1984)
(Assistant Professor Choi Sun Hae)
This can't be true.
How...
How could my dad do something like this?
Sun Hae.
Oh, no. Sun Hae, I'm sorry. I forgot to knock.
(Hankang University Law School)
By the way, I wonder where my husband is.
I went to his office, but he wasn't there.
Sun Hae, what's the matter?
Is everything okay with you?
Cho Hee.
Yes.
Why are you shivering?
Are you feeling unwell?
No, it's not like that. I'm fine.
You don't look fine at all.
You look so pale.
Sun Hae, are you in trouble?
Cho Hee.
Yes, I'm here. Go ahead and tell me.
(The All-Round Wife)
Since you were not home with us,
I missed you so much, Mother.
Come over to our house to see her.
If we just sit back and watch,
we'll be in trouble.
She can never marry him.
But how do you know Professor Choi, Mom?
There must be a misunderstanding.
What's going on with her?
She hasn't replied to my text either.
Oh, my. Sun Hae.
Ms. Oh.
