(All characters, organizations, places, entities, and events...)
(in this drama are fictional.)
A conservative and progressive panelist will fight...
and debate hot topics sweeping the nation each week.
This is "Debate".
We have a new member of "Debate".
He's very popular these days as the National Dad.
He will be our progressive panelist.
- It's Mr. Wi. - Former Assemblyman Wi Dae Han.
(Wi Dae Han, Former Assemblyman)
I believe the progress of democracy...
begins with healthy debate.
I will do my best so that "Debate" can become...
a healthy and great program. Thank you.
He's so corny from the start.
Assemblyman Wi, your daughter is here...
to cheer you on today.
Yes, hello. I'm Han Da Jung,
and I'm a junior in high school.
My girlfriend is so pretty.
Isn't there anything you'd like to say to Assemblyman Wi?
Good luck, National Dad!
Thanks.
The fact that the sudden rise in minimum age...
hurt the employment rate...
and made it harder for small business owners...
is a fact that everyone knows.
It's true that the economy is tough for small business owners.
However, to say that's due to the rise in minimum wage...
is to confuse correlation for causation.
The wages of restaurant workers went up...
by more than 10 percent last year.
Sales are decreasing, but expenses are increasing.
Can you still say there is no causation?
You're correct.
However, are you that angry that the wages...
of low-wage laborers went up?
- What I mean is... - It's understandable.
Since you're a high-wage laborer. Right?
Boring.
It is now time for a new segment.
(Public assembly)
Public assembly.
I understand that today's bill was prepared by Lawyer Kang.
What is the bill?
As many of you know,
the current anti-abortion law...
was ruled unconstitutional by the court.
The National Assembly must revise the current law...
by December 31, 2020.
Today, I brought forth a bill...
that will revise the current law.
Now we will begin the debate on the revised law.
Before we begin our discussion,
I would like to make one thing clear.
The rulings of the court...
do not mean a complete end to the anti-abortion law.
The exact definition of the court's ruling...
would be to revise the current criteria for legal abortion.
If I may express my personal opinion,
I think...
abortion is a crime.
- What is he saying? - What?
- Thank you, Mr. Wi. - Are you okay?
- Is she sick? - The biggest issue here...
is the period of pregnancy allowed for a legal abortion.
I think the right to life of a fetus is very important.
But I believe that the women's right to physical autonomy...
takes priority.
Considering the period when a fetus can live without an umbilical cord,
abortion should be allowed in whatever circumstance...
until 24 weeks of pregnancy.
24 weeks...
Isn't that too far?
If we consider how some religious groups may react,
this statement can be a bit too extreme.
He still has a long way to go.
The right for a woman's health and physical autonomy...
are two precious rights protected by our constitution.
So I have always believed that abortion could never be a sin.
But now my values have changed.
Now I...
have a daughter that I never expected to have.
If my child's unmarried mother had decided to end her pregnancy,
my daughter would not have seen the light of day.
Looking at how healthy and beautiful she is,
I had no choice but to accept...
that a fetus is also a precious life.
However,
there are women who can't afford to make such choices.
Can you blame them? Will you make them criminals?
I agree with you.
But the current anti-abortion law...
has a very narrow set of exceptions for legal abortions.
And this is very important to note.
There is one thing we always leave out in abortion debates.
And that is the responsibility of men.
The current law only holds women to be accountable.
I think accountability...
should be more on men than women.
- What is a good policy for women? - Goodness, Wi Dae Han.
You are still in the game.
- Should we terminate the law? - This is how...
he gets back in the game, using abortion.
He is going to get support from both conservatives and women.
I think so too.
Thank you for your opinions.
Those of you who side with Lawyer Kang,
who argues that abortion should be legal...
up to 24 weeks of pregnancy,
(Public assembly)
press one. Or,
if you agree with former Assemblyman Wi Dae Han,
that abortion should not be legal...
after six weeks of pregnancy,
press two.
Please vote now.
Maybe she ate something wrong.
Are you okay? Is it serious?
Are you okay?
(Episode 5, If It Happens to You)
- Good job, everyone. - Good work.
- Good job. - Good work.
I can't understand this.
How can you get a 51 percent approval rate?
That means I was that persuasive.
His daughter's story was too powerful.
To be a people's bill,
you need more than 80 percent, right?
Yes.
Isn't that too high?
Do you see how Mr. Kang doesn't know about TV programs?
It needs to be set high to create a dramatic effect.
How can you not know after so much experience?
That is how we can name it as the people's bill.
My point exactly.
Is that so?
I think I will side with him to say it is too high.
You have something on your jacket.
This program will be a big hit from the beginning.
The most trending keywords are abortion and Wi Dae Han.
Our program is dominating the trending keywords chart.
You know that anti-abortion idea came from me, right?
Of course, I do.
The other writers were against it, but I knew it would work.
I knew it in my guts.
Great job.
- Soo Hyun. - Da Jung.
How are you feeling? I saw you were retching earlier.
I'm fine.
I think my stomach got upset because I was too nervous.
You did such good work today.
You sure you don't need to take any medicine?
Of course not. I'm fine.
This is her first time on TV.
Dad, you were amazing today.
Huh? Dad?
Amazing?
This is what you see every day, right?
You two look so alike!
Right?
Da Jung, are you joining us for dinner?
Yes.
Of course, she is!
It's okay. I should get home and put my siblings to sleep.
Have fun for me, dad.
Why, thank...
What are you talking about? I should go home with you.
We can do dinner next time.
Of course, we should go home together.
For the success of...
- "Debate"! - "Debate"!
Everybody bottoms up! All right?
Bottoms up, bottoms up. Give up if you can't.
What are you doing?
Even if she said she'll go alone,
what kind of a dad actually sends his daughter home alone?
I didn't send her alone. She went alone.
Didn't you see her running away to go home?
Come on! Bottoms up.
I said, bottoms up.
(Early pregnancy symptoms)
(I have a fever. Is it a cold? Why do I feel nauseous?)
It tastes so good.
You can give it to me. I will cook the meat.
Thank you.
Are your hands available only for eating?
Huh?
I always burn it.
He is cooking very well.
Can you cook these too? Leave the plate there.
You can just keep it.
You're so annoying that my patience is burning up.
Annoyed? You shouldn't get annoyed.
Hang on.
- I can pour you a glass of water. - Don't do that.
You can't get annoyed. Here is your cold water.
It is a skill to annoy her and then give her a glass of water.
Are you going to continue to fight here too?
We should only fight on the ring.
Of course! I agree with him.
Otherwise, there will be a huge accident. I'll be fine...
- Whatever. - No way.
This meat is cooked well. Have some.
Thank you.
Lawyer Kang. I am right next to you. Can you pour me a drink?
I am cooking right now. Mr. Koo, could you?
Oh no!
I didn't know your glass was empty, Hye Jin.
Come on, drink.
Excuse me! Can you change the glass?
I think the glass is broken.
- I don't think I can use it. - Really?
- Goodnight. - Goodnight.
How can I help you?
Can...
I went to the same college as Soo Hyun,
but she was...
closer to Mr. Wi than me.
Why is that?
They were on the student council together.
And they spent many nights together!
You are right. We did pull some all-nighters.
Goodness.
Right, right. All-nighters.
We pulled all-nighters working together.
Not all student council members are close.
Now that is too harsh.
You know that I adored you.
Adore me? When?
I am curious.
How was Soo Hyun when she was in college?
Me?
I was just normal.
Why do you want to know?
I know right? Why does he want to know?
I am a curious person.
I have a very special relationship with Soo Hyun.
She even moved in across the street.
I can see her front door when I open mine.
Hey, excuse me.
That's not anything special, just a coincidence.
- Soo Hyun! - Whatever.
If coincidence keeps happening, that's destiny.
- Exactly. - You two...
might end up dating each other!
You never know what might happen.
See? You didn't know!
You didn't know that would happen to me!
I'm sorry.
Why did you have to say such nonsense in the first place?
What do you mean, it's nonsense?
It is! Do you think I'm crazy?
Why would I date someone with four kids?
- That won't do. - You're right.
You're right. I made a huge mistake.
Please...
Please be one line.
Good job today. Get some rest.
Soo Hyun.
Well...
About those days back in college.
Why did you suddenly stop keeping in touch with me?
I don't know. It was so long ago that I don't really remember.
I was a bit upset, to be honest.
I get that you took the semester off,
but you didn't have to stop talking to me like that.
I didn't know you were holding grudges.
Were you still thinking about that?
I'm not exactly holding grudges...
I was just curious.
Forget it.
You should go on inside.
Da Jung didn't look too well.
Take care of her.
It is! Do you think I'm crazy?
Why would I date someone with four kids?
Did you see the show?
Of course, I did.
It was your first appearance ever.
I fell in love all over again.
You looked great on TV. I thought you were a K-pop star.
What do you think about it?
I told you, you were so pretty.
No, not that.
About abortions.
Oh, that?
If...
we got pregnant, what would you do?
Of course, we have to get rid of it!
That's what I've been thinking until now,
but I was convinced by your father.
Fetuses are human too.
I don't think abortions should be considered so easily.
Then what?
Are you going to have the baby?
Are you the one who is going to give birth?
And how are you going to raise it?
Why...
are you getting mad at me?
That's why you're the problem.
You're so indecisive,
so you keep whining that you're not fit to be a pop star!
Da Jung, you're going too far.
Da Jung?
But the current anti-abortion law...
has a very narrow set of exceptions for legal abortions.
And this is very important to note.
There is one thing we always leave out in abortion debates.
And that is the responsibility of men.
The current law only holds women to be accountable.
I think accountability...
should be more on men than women.
(Viewers in favor of the renewed "Debate".)
- Did you fight with him? - Who?
Dae Han.
Why would I fight with him?
You need affection to fight too.
Since you're having breakfast here instead.
I should keep my distance. So people don't get the wrong idea.
They say strong denials are strong affirmations.
Jung Ji Hyun.
Why do you keep trying to put us together?
Because I think it's my fault.
What is?
The reason you're pushing Dae Han away.
It's not like that, so forget it.
"In short, the renewed "Debate"..."
"was a great show by Wi Dae Han,"
"made for Wi Dae Han and by Wi Dae Han."
What a great line.
Did you see that? That's the kind of person I am.
Look at this article.
I'm a zombie.
Just eat your food. And get that rice off your face.
Zombies don't use spoons.
Hey, if you keep acting like this, you're going to have cereal again.
I'm a zombie too!
You should get that rice off your face.
Da Jung, are you sick?
I'm just not hungry.
Why not?
Did you have ramyeon last night?
What's wrong with your sister?
I've never seen her like that before.
(Jung Han Soo)
Salute!
I saw the show. You're still one smooth talker.
Not only that, I looked great on TV.
Whatever. Let me see you. Come to the city hall.
Yes, sir.
Are the youth the only ones who don't have houses?
We rent houses too!
- We rent houses too! - We rent houses too!
Rescind the decisions made on the Purun Low-income Apartments...
without our consent immediately!
- Rescind it! Rescind it! - Rescind it! Rescind it!
The only way to develop Jungang-gu is to build an international school!
Gosh, they must get up so early.
The old prison estate is a great piece of land.
The access is great too.
They think the price of their houses...
will depend on what is built there,
so that's why they're taking it so seriously.
Begin working on bringing in an international school!
- Begin working! - Begin working!
How are they going to enforce building the apartments...
when the residents are objecting like this?
I'm sure they feel pressured.
That's probably why Mayor Jung wanted to see you.
Me? What for?
You're popular these days,
so he wants you to change the public opinion.
Is that so? Gosh.
So did he hear that I'm popular?
It must be hard for them.
What do you think you're doing?
That's Soo Hyun's... Wait here.
Sir. Hello.
Do you remember me? Wi Dae Han. I'm Soo Hyun's friend from college.
I didn't expect to see you here.
Well, I do remember,
but why would you be so friendly with me?
Well, I am a close friend of Soo Hyun's.
We're working together right now too.
What are you protesting about?
Don't you see this?
We're protesting the low-income apartments.
Oh...
That's great. I was on my way to meet the mayor.
You know the mayor?
Of course, I do.
I used to be Mayor Jung's aide.
We're practically friends.
Then you should have said so!
You should go to the mayor and talk things out with him!
I am the president of the Inju Market Merchant Union,
and we can't let Purun Low-income Apartments come in.
- It will ruin the neighborhood. - Yes.
The youth aren't the only ones who don't own a house.
I live in a rented place too.
- You should tell that to him. - Sure.
- Don't you think so? - That's right!
I mean,
he's good friends with the mayor.
Gosh...
He's Wi Dae Han.
- Wi Dae Han! - Wi Dae Han!
- Good luck, then. - Yes, sir.
- Give him a round of applause. - Gosh...
Good luck.
I don't think they'll change their minds.
Of course. The public wants to bring in...
an international school instead of a low-income apartment.
Kang Kyung Hoon spearheaded that.
An international high school was his campaign promise, right?
That's right.
I'm confused.
I understand Kang Kyung Hoon because his core support group...
is older people.
But why is Han Soo so hung up on the low-income apartments?
The party is focused on winning over the young voters.
If we don't win them over, the election will be tough.
True. Things are different for people in their 20s and 30s.
The young people get housing,
and our party wins over their votes.
It's a win-win.
If you get this done, you'll gain favor from the party,
so it's a gain for you too.
That's an added bonus.
But come on.
I understand the party's and your situation,
but I need to live too.
I didn't tell you to die.
You know...
that there are many more voters in their 40s and 50s...
than 20s and 30s in Jungang-gu.
Why do you think Kang Kyung Hoon is saying...
we should get an international high school instead?
He already knows which side has more votes.
You and he are in different situations.
What do you mean? How are they different?
You know our party is filled with Assemblymen who hate you, right?
Why are you hitting me where it hurts?
If I shun you too, you will totally be...
the ugly duckling.
You'd have to run for office as an independent.
Stop it. You're scaring me.
You should be scared.
I'm the one who put you into "Debate".
That means I can also pull you out.
Did you put me there to make me do this?
I want a win-win, that's all.
Purun Low-income Apartments will have 2,000 units.
Who do you think will get 2 to 3,000 votes if that comes in?
If that comes in, all of those votes will be yours.
The bell rang.
Hello.
Is Da Jung still not here?
She's cutting, obviously.
Cutting?
She has lost her mind.
She went on TV, so she thinks she's too good for school.
But Mom.
Is my real dad really an Assemblyman?
Yes, he is. Why would I lie about something like that?
Then why am I so bad in school?
You got your report card, didn't you?
Yes. I came in third this time.
From the bottom.
You brought up your dad first in case I scold you.
You figured it out. You're so quick.
You're better than any assemblyman when it comes to scheming.
What gave you the guts to have me, anyway?
Guts?
Think about it. My dad wasn't around.
I wouldn't have had the baby if it were me.
I can't raise it by myself.
Because I'm a mom.
The best decision I ever made in my entire life...
was having you, Da Jung.
Thank you for giving birth to me.
(Jung Woo)
Da Jung, did something happen with your dad?
If your dad makes you mad again, just tell me.
I'll run right over.
So? Did your talk with the mayor go well?
Yes, well...
But I don't think it'll be as easy as I thought.
- What? - From what I hear,
they already got government approval,
so he can't just prevent them from building it.
We know that.
That's why we want to find a way.
Gosh. You're so much more frustrating than you look.
Gosh.
Anyway, is there a particular reason why you oppose...
that low-income apartment?
To be honest, I don't care...
whether we get an international school or a low-income apartment.
Then why did you go protest? You must be busy with the restaurant.
Don't get me started.
You saw the woman talking her head off...
on the platform at the protest, right?
We oppose Purun Apartments that will ruin our neighborhood.
- We oppose! - We oppose!
The woman with the megaphone?
- That's right. - Yes.
She's the one who's pushing the international school.
She's insanely aggressive.
One word from her and all the women of this town get worked up.
As in, if she hates you, it'll hurt your business.
That goes without saying.
If she posts something on one of those mommy blogs,
sales will plummet that very day. My business will die.
How could I not go to the protest?
Hello, I'm Kang Kyung Hoon.
Hello.
My gosh.
Yes. Okay.
Assemblyman Wi. How long has it been?
Your popularity is shooting up lately.
You even got a nickname "National Dad".
I must really be popular...
if even you know about it.
You're so snippy.
The National Dad...
should have a kind heart and be a good role model.
I should have a kind heart to the people who deserve it,
to be a good role model.
You were very proper and polite when you were in high school.
Yeouido ruined you.
Assemblyman, my mom's restaurant...
It is our lifeline.
Please help us so that...
our lifeline doesn't get cut.
I beg you.
I miss your mom's blood sausage soup.
I'll try to change the neighborhood people's minds.
You said not to have hope. Why did you change your mind?
I just think this is wrong.
The young people can't lose hope of having homes, can they?
No, they can't.
Han Soo.
It wasn't just the party that dumped me.
My own dad dumped me.
I know.
I'll help you, so let's band together...
and take Kang Kyung Hoon's seat in the Assembly.
- We need a new mayor. - That's right.
That's right.
He only thinks about kissing up to the higher-ups.
He cares nothing about developing the area.
Exactly.
We need something like an international school...
to help our kids' education and increase property value.
- Exactly. - Right.
But what? Low-income apartments?
Hello. I'm sorry to interrupt,
but do you know who I am?
Of course, I do. The National Dad.
You were on TV last night too.
I saw you too. Oh my gosh. You're better looking in person.
- I know. - Look at those eyebrows.
They're so thick.
You looked so carefully.
Thank you.
I'm sure those of you who watched the show know,
but there's a bill proposal segment of the show,
so I wanted to hear your opinions.
If you don't mind, may I join you?
Of course, we don't mind.
Get up. Please, sit.
- My gosh. - Sit. Sit.
Thank you. Mothers really are kind and open-minded.
Goodness.
What opinion do you want to hear about?
Well, so... We propose a new bill on our show.
I thought it would be nice...
- if it related to our district. - Oh my gosh.
There is one.
You know the city is forcing us...
to let Purun Low-income Apartments come in, right?
Yes, yes. I think I've heard.
Please propose a law that prohibits cities from doing that.
That's right.
Hold on just a minute.
Don't let the city...
build low-income housing unilaterally.
That's right.
But may I ask you...
details about why you oppose it?
Our property value will drop if things like that come in.
- That's right. - It's a violation of...
our rights over our assets.
- That's right. - Our house value will drop.
Property value will fall.
- That's right. - Did that ever happen before?
Did property value ever drop after a low-income apartment went in?
I've never heard of any...
I never did either.
- Have you? - Where?
What do you mean? It happened everywhere.
- That's right. - Every single one.
- That's so true. - Right?
Every single one.
So... Where exactly?
Don't get me wrong.
The way TV shows work,
I need solid evidence. That's why.
- That's true. - He needs solid evidence.
Why are you asking me for evidence?
Am I a City Hall employee?
Then you're saying you don't have...
any solid evidence to back your assertions.
Right?
What are you up to right now?
Are you trying to pick a fight with us?
Pick a fight? No way.
You might not know it, but I went to a very prestigious university.
Before you tell anyone else what to do you,
you should first educate your child right.
- What I meant was... - This is such a waste of time.
- We should leave. - Sure.
My apologies.
No logic, whatsoever. She just hates it.
Soo Hyun.
I saw a lot of positive opinions on Mr. Wi.
Even in internet communities for women.
I knew that it was a calculative move...
to capture both conservative and women votes.
And our viewership went up too.
Since we worked so hard for it, we should work hard to keep it.
What do you have for the next bill idea?
(Kang Joon Ho)
If you have time later, we should go get a stamp on my loyalty card.
I prefer this place to cafes.
Have you never been to one before?
Yes, for various reasons.
But I served the full term for my military service.
And of course, I shot guns too.
Well, let's see how you can shoot.
Shall we?
Enemy on your left.
What? Where?
Why are you standing there? You are going to get killed.
What? Where are you?
You see the house behind you? I'm inside.
House? Behind me?
What are you doing?
Come on. Get ahold of yourself!
I think I got shot.
I can see that. Hang on. I will come and get you.
Where are they shooting from?
Goodness.
You people are so mean!
This is too brutal for a guy who just began playing games today!
Get down!
What?
You need to give me a better reason than that.
What do you mean you just didn't feel like going to school?
If you don't like that excuse,
then you can think however you want.
Are you going through puberty? Tak is enough of a handful.
Do you think you are the only one dealing with a handful?
I'm dealing with a handful too!
Hey.
Song Yi, did I do something wrong?
Tae Poong, did I do something wrong?
Your existence is wrong.
Is that right? I am sorry.
It's all me. I should be the one getting punished.
I should just...
Keep eating.
I should just kill myself.
Who is it?
Is this Mr. Wi Dae Han's house?
Yes. Who is this?
I am your son.
What?
What kind of a crazy guy are you?
How can you be my son?
I am no Casanova. I don't have children everywhere.
Just wait there.
Sir, calm down.
I am Da Jung's boyfriend.
What?
It's nice to meet you, sir.
My name is Choi Jung Woo, and I am Da Jung's boyfriend.
How old are you?
I am 20 years old.
Are you a college student?
I didn't go to college.
Then what do you do?
I am a trainee for an idol group.
I am preparing for my debut, which I am hoping will be this year.
An idol?
Yes, sir.
I heard about that too.
Not everyone can debut, right?
You are correct, sir. It is not easy.
But it is not a dream...
if you give up just because it's hard.
In that regard, I have huge respect for you.
Respect?
Your passion for your dream.
I admire that.
You even walked in mourning to be an assemblyman.
And even worked as a designated driver.
I was really mesmerized by your TV program yesterday.
Your jokes are really funny.
I am now a huge fan.
You what?
All right. But you should get back home tonight.
He is right. I'll walk you out.
- Jung Woo. - Yes.
You should sleep over tonight.
We didn't even have time to play.
I want to hear you sing too.
I will sleep over next time.
What? Are you coming back?
Sleep over?
Of course. Da Jung is here.
I will see you again, Father.
It's been annoying me for a while.
How am I your father?
Then should I call you father-in-law?
He is crazy. Really crazy.
Then maybe a little more friendly term.
Dad?
You didn't have to come all the way to my house.
Come on.
It's all because of you.
You hung up on me yesterday.
And you ignored my texts.
Wouldn't you be worried too?
How is your debut coming along?
Great.
Ta-da!
- What is it? - Our album.
Our debut date is set.
It will be two months later.
Good for you.
I came by to give you this today.
I was able to debut because of you.
You are the one...
who filmed me singing and posted it online.
That is how my company found me.
If I fail, you have to take care of me.
Forever.
What if you are successful?
Then...
I will take care of you.
Forever.
So...
My bus is here. I got to go.
Congratulations on your debut.
See you!
You didn't look very happy today.
Hang in there. I will always make you smile.
Jung Woo, I think I am pregnant...
(Jung Woo, I think I am pregnant...)
Our debut date is set.
It will be two months later.
I have never seen you so angry.
Was your image as a gentleman all a lie?
Well, I got competitive.
You weren't good enough to get competitive...
Let's do it again next time.
And you can't beg me to go easy on you.
I thought you were all for peace, but you are very pro-war.
I am pro-war, but I'm also small-minded.
To be honest, it bothers me.
What does?
You live close by,
so I'm worried you might see Dae Han often.
I do, of course,
but it's because of the kids, not Dae Han.
By "kids"...
do you mean...
Yes. The four kids who live with Dae Han.
The girl on the show...
seemed quite smart for her age.
She may seem mature,
but she's still a kid.
It has only been two months since they lost their mother.
I do feel bad for her.
She pretends to be fine and looks after her siblings.
I'm small-minded,
but I'm quite smart, so I do understand.
How you feel.
Yes, Da Jung?
Soo Hyun, are you home?
No, I'm outside. What is it?
I wanted some advice.
It's because of Dae Han, isn't it? What did he do this time?
It's not that.
Soo Hyun.
What do I do?
Da Jung, where are you?
What? "Pregnant"?
What are you talking about?
Da Jung.
Did you go to the hospital?
Not yet.
I just used the pregnancy test.
With who? When?
He's two years older than me.
About one month...
before my mom's accident.
"Two years older"?
He's 20?
Why that jerk...
No, Soo Hyun.
It's not like that.
Did you want it too?
Yes.
Han Da Jung! You're still in high school!
You're a minor!
Even if you like him, you should know how to hold back!
You're too young for this.
I guess...
that's why I'm being punished.
Am I the only one who knows?
Yes.
I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow,
and let's think about the rest afterward.
I don't want...
Mister to know.
It's just like you thought.
Kang Kyung Hoon was helping Jae Hoon's mother.
How?
One of Kang Kyung Hoon's aides is her nephew.
I knew it.
It seemed fishy that they were trying so hard.
What about the promotion committee for the school?
There were some other parents along with Jae Hoon's mother,
and there are also a variety of other people.
There are quite a few from the merchant union too.
Is that so?
So that's how it is.
Do you know which strategy is the easiest way to defeat your opponent?
What is it?
Alienation.
Why are you making it sound so hard?
Don't you just mean playing both sides?
Do you have to sound so stupid?
Anyway...
If you make the enemies fight, you handle it without intervening.
Okay?
I think Wi Dae Han is working on the apartment problem, sir.
So he's trying to team up with Mayor Jung?
Those who have no chance always act like that.
They always side with the wrong team.
The public is for the international school,
so I don't think you should worry.
We can't trust the public.
Hire a great photographer to tail Wi Dae Han.
He's bound to be causing problems somewhere.
Yes, sir.
I'm hungry. When will we eat fried chicken?
We're almost there. Just wait a bit longer.
Song Yi, do you remember what we practiced?
Yes. I'll do my best.
Good luck!
Slow down. You'll get an upset stomach
Eat as much as you want.
- Go on. - By the way,
how is the low-income apartment case going?
About that...
We did some investigation to see the exact state of affairs,
and it turns out that it's completely opposite of the rumors.
What do you mean, "opposite"?
Those who were objecting were most worried about...
falling house prices...
and turning the neighborhood into a slum.
Of course.
But it turns out that...
there are more places...
where the economy was revived due to the influx of people.
- Is that so? - Yes.
You're being so gullible again.
I'm not being gullible.
He said it revived the economy.
And?
And just think about it,
if there are more young adults in the neighborhood,
it will liven it up. How would it harm the neighborhood?
You know, you're right.
No, he's not! Well...
the international school won't harm the neighborhood, either.
No, it won't.
I guess you have a stronger point.
No, it won't do any harm.
However, let's say they built the school.
How will you two benefit from it?
Well...
To be honest...
there's not much to gain.
Soo Hyun isn't a schoolgirl anymore.
That's what I'm saying!
Soo Hyun lives in a really old building and it isn't safe.
But if they build the low-income apartments, it will be great...
if she can get a nice and safe place to live in, at a cheap price.
I guess you're right.
Besides, it's so sad to think about the place they used to live in.
What?
There were so many cockroaches...
and there were cracks on the wall.
I prayed every night before bed.
That our house wouldn't fall down.
Goodness...
Gosh...
You poor things must have had such a hard time.
Goodness...
I think the reason they had to live at a place like that...
is that we don't have enough low-income apartments.
That's why I'm paying more attention to this problem.
Sure. All parents feel the same.
I think people should raise their voices according to their interests.
That's why I don't think negatively about Jae Hoon's mother.
What?
Kang Kyung Hoon is helping her out,
so it is natural that she will speak in favor of him
What are you talking about?
Didn't you know?
Her nephew...
works for Kang Kyung Hoon.
What?
What are you talking about?
Are you saying we were the puppets...
of Kang Kyung Hoon and that woman?
I thought you knew.
Anyway, you should keep speaking your thoughts.
Oh, my heart.
- Oh, my heart! - Goodness...
I was protesting...
in the wrong place all this time!
- My gosh. - My gosh.
- So you didn't know. - Oh my gosh.
Do you see the fetus?
You're about 11 weeks along.
I should tell my boyfriend, right?
You should.
I'll go with you if you want.
If you're angry, I can beat him up for you.
What's there to be angry about?
We did it together.
About not telling Dae Han...
I understand how you feel,
but I don't think it's right.
- Then what? - He's your dad.
Whatever you choose,
I think it's right to think about it and decide together.
I'll win over all the market people to our side,
- so don't you worry. - Thank you.
I see Soo Hyun always fights for justice and sides with the weak...
because she takes after you.
You're so silly. Like father, like daughter.
Excuse me.
It's Soo Hyun.
Hey.
Da Jung. Can't you stop stalling,
and tell me?
I really have to get back.
What is it that you need to tell me in person?
I took Da Jung to the doctor.
Why? Is she sick?
I'm pregnant.
She's 11 weeks along.
The kid that came to your place yesterday is the dad.
Come on.
Stop fooling around.
Whatever.
I can see in your eyes whether or not you're lying.
Who do you think you're trying to fool?
Do you think I'd joke about something like this?
Yes.
You're scaring me.
You look like you mean it.
I do mean it.
You mean it?
Yes.
Where's Da Jung?
Calm down...
and think about what you're going to do.
How can I be calm and think?
Da Jung is a minor. She's only in high school!
Exactly!
The dad needs to be stable...
and judge rationally.
I said on TV that abortion is wrong!
How could things get so messed up?
Are you worrying about Da Jung or yourself?
I'm worried about both. Both!
It's 100 times harder for Da Jung right now.
It should be hard for her. She did this, so it should be hard!
Darn it.
Where is this jerk?
That punk.
(Mr. Wi)
Hello?
I'll text you the address. Bring that punk.
Right now.
Okay.
What did he say?
He says to bring you.
Where?
Father.
I'm truly sorry.
Okay, I'll kill you.
But if I hit you unilaterally, it becomes assault.
I don't want to go to jail.
So let's fight fair and square.
Come at me.
How can I hit you, Father?
Please just hit me.
Shouldn't I tell him?
Don't stop him. He needs a beating.
Hey. Look.
I know this is wrong,
but I can't hold it in.
You need to take a beating today.
Hey. Bite down on your mouthguard. Here I go.
I'm sorry, sir!
I'm sorry.
What?
Are you okay?
Did you just duck?
You ducked?
- Father. - What?
I'll take responsibility.
How?
How will you take responsibility?
How can you take responsibility after doing that to a teenage girl?
I said in front of the nation that abortion...
Fine.
I'll hear you out.
How will you take responsibility? What will you do?
I thought a lot on the way here about what I should do...
to take responsibility,
and there was only one way.
We'll have the baby.
- Are you insane? - Are you insane?
But...
you said abortion is a crime.
What...
I was being theoretical!
You punk. She can't even take care of herself,
but what? You want her to have a baby?
You call that being responsible?
Is ruining her life what you call taking responsibility?
Still,
I can't tell her to get an abortion.
So you shouldn't have done that.
If you truly cherish her, why were you so reckless?
I'm...
really sorry.
This is wrong.
You didn't even ask me.
I'm one thing, but you're making your debut soon!
Someone like me...
doesn't deserve to become a pop star.
What does she like about a clueless punk like that?
How is she such a bad judge of people?
Enough.
What will you do about Da Jung?
What else? I have no choice.
She has to get an abortion.
You talked on TV about how precious life is,
but you say that so easily.
Do you really think this is easy for me?
It's hard. It is,
but we have no choice.
What were you thinking...
when you decided to keep the baby?
I felt bad.
I wanted to take responsibility somehow.
That's good enough.
At least you didn't try to avoid it.
I will...
handle the rest.
Stay here. I'll go with Soo Hyun.
What do you mean?
I should go with you.
People may see you.
Who cares about that?
I don't want you to, that's why. Just stay here.
Just stay here with Dae Han.
I'll be with her, so don't worry.
I'll be right back.
Dae Han, don't treat her like she's some criminal.
I really don't want to do this either,
but this isn't just for me.
Still, that's...
Give it to me. I'll put it on.
Sorry.
(Happy Dreams OBGYN)
Let's go.
(Happy Dreams OBGYN)
Okay, let's begin.
So why...
Why were you so reckless?
Darn it.
I know...
I really messed up,
but you did the same thing.
What?
Hey, I was...
I was...
Anyway, it's different!
Da Jung.
Are you okay?
Yes.
That was quicker than I expected.
Mister.
I want jjajangmyeon.
Slow down. You'll get indigestion.
He's right. And talk while you eat.
Jung Woo. You eat too. Let's eat.
Okay.
I didn't get the abortion.
I'm keeping the baby.
I'm going to have...
our baby.
(The Great Show)
This is a contract violation.
I'm sorry.
You ran your mouth...
- saying abortion is a crime. - Is this fun for you?
It costs 300,000 dollars to raise a kid...
and send the kid to college.
I plan to just stay by your side.
That article is wrong.
Where do you kids get the guts?
I suddenly felt strong.
Since I'm a mom, I want to protect my baby.
If that's true, it must've been shocking.
What act is he trying to put on now?
People!
No way.
That's right.
