You see,
I'm sorry...
for resenting you.
After losing Do Jin like that,
I suppose I needed someone to resent and hate...
to cope with it.
I'm sorry.
Yeong I, I'm really sorry.
I'm so sorry for making you suppress all your needs and wants.
And I'm sorry for letting you go so late.
Now,
you should fly away freely...
and live your life. Okay?
Fly freely and find your own happiness.
My gosh! Look at the sea!
Oh, my!
Mi Ri Nae, are you having fun?
Mom, look! I found shells!
Mom, aren't these pretty?
Mom, isn't Mr. Kyung Jun coming?
The other day, Grandma said the two of us...
could live with Mr. Kyung Jun now.
So are we really going to live with him?
Can't you tell Mr. Kyung Jun to meet us here?
I miss him.
What about you? Don't you miss him?
I...
miss him too.
As much as you miss him.
I miss him a lot.
Yes.
You haven't even eaten yet,
so I brought you these.
Thank you.
Kyung Jun.
Are you really planning to move to the US?
Yes. I plan to go.
Thank you for everything.
Please take good care of my grandpa.
You're a coward.
You advised Se Jun not to run away,
yet you're trying to run away from your own problem right now.
This won't solve your problem.
If you want to run away...
because it's unbearable and you miss her terribly,
use that courage to ask her to come back.
Do not back down.
For once, you can be a little shameless.
You love her.
Who could dare to criticize you?
You're so in love with her.
Please.
Don't make a foolish mistake, okay?
This is huge!
Eun Ho.
I suppose Mr. Jang hasn't given up on Yeong I yet.
He asked me if I was with her.
He sounded all serious.
He asked you that?
So?
You told him that Yeong I went to the beach with Mi Ri Nae, right?
Of course, I did.
But it doesn't look like Yeong I told him...
about Mom giving her permission to date him again.
Gosh, why are they being so careful?
Had I been in her situation,
I would've kissed him as soon as Mom gave me...
her permission.
Eun Jin, do you mind giving us some privacy for a moment?
Eun Ho wanted to talk to me about something.
That's why we're here.
All right, sure.
Eun Ho.
What did you want to talk to me about?
Are you going to ask me out or something...
Here.
Do Young.
How about you study and go back to college for nursing?
What? College?
I barely managed to graduate from college.
You know that I'm not book smart.
I've been observing you, so I know you adore kids.
And you're very helpful to the nurse.
The nurse spoke so highly of you.
You definitely have an aptitude for it.
Study and graduate from nursing school.
When you graduate, I'll hire you again.
Really? That's your plan, seriously?
Yes.
Well, if you say so...
Shall I give it a shot?
Yes, give it a shot. I'll help you.
Well...
I have one more condition.
Hey, he's kindly volunteering to be your career counselor.
What do you mean you have a condition?
Hey, come on.
Even when you're looking for a studio apartment,
they throw in a bunch of bonuses these days.
What is it? Go ahead and tell me.
If I do manage to get into nursing school,
go out with me.
I won't dream of becoming your girlfriend.
Let's go out on a date and see.
Hey, Do Young.
You're cool. You seized the perfect chance to ask him out.
Eun Ho, I thought you were going to ask me out today,
so I got all dressed up.
Okay?
Let's go out on a date and see.
Stop being so difficult.
My goodness.
All right.
Let's do it.
For real, right? You can't change your mind later.
Nice!
The sea is huge.
Right, Mom?
Yes, it's huge and vast.
It's as big as the love between you and Mr. Kyung Jun.
What? Look at you.
Where did you learn to say such things?
Mi Ri Nae, shall we head back?
We should have dinner.
The sun will go down soon.
No. Let's hang out here just a little longer. Please?
I want to see the sea when it's all black too.
I heard shooting stars...
fall into the sea at night. They sparkle in the black sea.
Who said that?
It's a secret.
To tell you the truth,
Mr. Kyung Jun told me when he visited me in the hospital.
Mi Ri Nae.
Why do you like Mr. Kyung Jun so much?
Well, Mr. Kyung Jun is handsome.
And he's tall.
Yes! He has a big heart and a nice voice too.
Right, he has such a nice voice.
That's right. He smells nice too.
He smells like Daddy.
When he holds me, I feel like I'm in Daddy's arms.
In Daddy's arms?
Soft and cozy like the clouds.
Oh! Mr. Kyung Jun!
Mi Ri Nae!
Kyung Jun.
How did you get here?
I drove.
I asked Do Young where you were.
Oh, my. This view is just amazing.
I can't believe you came here without me.
It's so nice here.
Mi Ri Nae is asleep.
She told me not to leave while she was asleep.
She made me promise a bunch of times.
I couldn't muster up the courage to come and see you,
so I suppose...
Mi Ri Nae has lost her trust in me.
Yeong I.
I owe you an apology too.
For pushing you away like a coward,
for trying to run away...
while hiding my feelings for you,
and for taking this long to muster up the courage...
to ask you to stay with me.
I...
came too late, right?
I've been waiting.
For you to reach out your hand first.
I couldn't pluck up the courage either.
I thought...
I'd make it even harder for you if I asked you to stay with me,
so I couldn't even try.
I was being a total coward.
I was just hoping you'd ask me to come back to you.
I was always curious...
what my day-to-day life with you would be like,
how fun and joyful it'd be,
and how we'd comfort each other...
when things get tough.
Just imagining it made me happy.
We'd wake up together in the morning.
Then we'd have breakfast and go for a walk together.
We'd drop Mi Ri Nae off at the kindergarten.
Then on our way home, we'd get some snacks...
and chat.
Most importantly,
we'd walk together in the same direction.
It'd make me so happy...
that I'd cry tears of joy.
Yes, me too.
I've pictured our life together too.
When I whine,
you'd crack funny jokes to make me feel better.
I'd cook your favorite dishes,
and we'd enjoy them together.
All the little happy moments.
"I should record them in my diary so I won't forget."
I've imagined such a happy life with you.
We almost...
lost the chance to make it happen.
Yeong I.
Let's...
live together.
(2 years later)
My goodness, Director Kim.
The business is getting too big, don't you think?
How about we move the concert...
to the next quarter?
We hosted the donation event recently.
These days, marketing is important for welfare foundations too.
Oh, sir.
Why did you put me in charge if you were going to meddle in everything?
I have...
plenty of experience, you see.
Thanks to him,
we've already been nominated...
for the award from the Minister of Health and Welfare.
I see that the two of you get along very well.
Time to eat!
Dad! Here.
Thanks, Mi Ri Nae.
Gosh, it's hot. Father.
What is it?
This is too hot.
- Is it? - Yes.
My goodness. It's hard to get it right.
Mi Ri Nae, eat just one more and go to school. Here.
I don't have time.
At this rate, I'll be late for school, Grandpa.
Grandpa has to go to work too.
Just one more, okay? Here.
There, good girl!
Dad, can you tie my hair?
Yes, Mi Ri Nae. Sit down.
Here, I'll take Pu Reu Mae.
Oh, my. Come here, Pu Reu Mae. You're a big boy.
You're running late, Mi Ri Nae. Move aside.
Se Hee. Today is your last day, right?
Yes. I'm a business owner now. You know that, right?
Congratulations on opening your convenience store. I'll come visit.
I should've done it sooner.
I'm not cut out for corporate life.
No.
It's the other way around.
You weren't a good fit for the company.
Good morning!
Isn't it such a gorgeous day, Ms. Im?
Are you extra happy because you're taking a break from your kids?
Maybe.
Oh, go ahead.
Hi, honey! I just got to work.
I see. I'm glad you got there safely.
I'm trying to put Pu Reu Mae to sleep now.
Honey, will you be home late again?
Yes, probably.
You know I've been working late...
to prepare for the launch of our new PB product.
Oh, maybe you didn't know.
You probably don't get any updates during your paternity leave.
That's right.
No one tells me anything now.
I'm probably the only vice president in the whole country...
who's on paternity leave.
Well, why didn't you beat me?
It was your idea, you know.
You said we should play rock-paper-scissors,
and the loser would take the leave.
Don't tell me you've already forgotten it.
I know it was my idea.
Anyway, honey.
What are these things on the bed?
Oh, those?
They're canned underwear.
It's a collaborative project I'm doing with an underwear company.
Try it.
I'll give the rest to the family as a gift on the weekend.
This would be very convenient for traveling.
Oh, right.
Can you pick up some sundae on your way home? With extra liver.
You'll have to feed me. My wrists hurt.
Okay, I'll feed you.
Oh, I have to go.
I love you a lot, as always.
I love you too. A lot.
I was so happy when I read in your letter...
that you'd be released on parole for being a model inmate.
When were you released?
This morning.
And you came straight here to see me?
I got to see the outside world after a long time.
Then I wondered who I should call.
And you were the first person I thought of.
Not your brother or your niece and nephew?
I still can't pluck up the courage to see them.
Thanks for everything.
You wrote to me often...
and visited me often too.
I promised you that I would.
You said you were being transferred to an overseas branch office.
When do you leave?
I actually volunteered to be transferred.
It's a hassle...
to deal with my parents pestering me to go on blind dates.
And I feel more at home when I'm abroad.
I leave in about ten days.
How many years will you work there?
Well, three years at the very least.
But it could be permanent and never come back.
I see.
Then...
are we going back to being pen pals?
Well...
Do you plan to return to TS Retail?
To be honest, I haven't thought about it yet.
I think both my grandfather and father...
want me to return to the company.
The truth is, I'm afraid.
I'm afraid of what people might think.
I feel like...
it'd be shameless of me to even covet such an idea.
If you're that afraid,
just quit.
Would you come with me?
The rent in the US is way too expensive for just one person.
I'm not being impulsive.
I've thought about this for a long time.
So think about it.
You can study there and work part-time too.
We're still young, you know.
That'd be nice.
We'll be roommates.
How adorable.
Pu Reu Mae looks just like you when you were little.
Se Jun...
was released on parole today.
He'll be home later.
Really?
I heard he could be released on parole.
Your father told me.
I came to tell you about Se Jun's release.
I didn't want you to worry.
I'll be off, then.
Kyung Jun.
Would you...
visit me again?
I'll see you soon, Mother.
- Ta-da! - Oh, my!
- My gosh. - Yes, that's good.
- All right. Here comes japchae! - Oh, nice.
- My gosh. - Where should I put this?
Honey, you should put it right in front of Kyung Jun.
He likes japchae, you know.
Okay, all right.
It's your birthday today. Sit down and relax.
Yes, sit down.
People would think this is your 80th birthday party or something.
My gosh, Do Young.
In the old days, Yeong I always set the table.
Look at you doing all the work now, Do Young.
I always do this, Auntie Hwa Kyung.
- Mom! Dad! I'm here. - Oh, they're here!
- I'm here too, Mother. - Hi!
My gosh! Geum and Ok are here. You're adorable.
Hi, Ok!
Gosh, my sweet pumpkins.
- Here, let me. - Okay.
Let me hold you.
Oh, no.
Gosh, it's okay.
Is this Ok?
No, that's Ok. Am I wrong?
What?
- Really, Mother? - Yes, I'm sure of it.
Why did you have to change the names?
Chairman Jang came up with the names.
In my eyes, they look exactly the same.
Ms. So is right. That's Geum.
- Right? - Yes.
Mother! We're here too!
- Oh, Mi Ri Nae is here! - Let's go inside, Mi Ri Nae.
My gosh! Mi Ri Nae!
- Happy birthday, Mother. - Thank you.
Yeong I, you should've helped him carry these things.
You have nothing in your hands except for your little purse!
I know, right?
Right, Mother? She's always like this.
I always carry everything...
- Yes, I know. - and look after the kids too.
I understand that she loves to work,
but she went to the office this morning...
even though it's the weekend and she knew we were having lunch with you.
We barely made it here on time.
I told you to come home early.
I can't believe you're telling her on me right away.
Whatever.
I feel so bad for you. I totally understand how you must feel.
Yeong I gets obsessed once she starts working.
I'm the only one who knows that!
- Yes. Now, I know too. - My gosh.
Sit down.
I made a big batch of japchae, your favorite.
Take some home for your family.
Nice. Mother, you're the best!
Peekaboo!
Look, he's smiling.
Mi Ri Nae, you're so good.
My daughter, you're so good at it!
Mi Ri Nae, look here!
Daughter, look at Daddy. Yes, that's it!
In 1, 2, 3. Cheese!
How adorable.
Whose daughter are you? You're so beautiful.
You bought the cake and even flowers for Mother.
You packed gimbap too? When did you prepare everything?
You should've told me.
You're always busy.
It's a special day, so I wanted to do everything.
Those who don't do housework have no idea.
Stay-at-home moms have to do so many things at once.
I've become a skilled multi-tasker.
I'm blessed to have a wonderful husband.
I chose well.
I chose you.
Thank you.
You know, back then...
If I didn't go there to ask you to come back to me...
What would've happened?
Then...
I would've tracked you down.
Even if you were in the US or in the Arctic.
Why would I let someone like you go?
So?
How do you feel now?
I'm happy.
I'm very happy,
and I feel at ease.
What about you, Kyung Jun?
I feel the same way.
I'm happy too.
And you are...
still the most radiant person...
in my eyes.
Gosh.
I can basically see all the love filled in your eyes.
It sure is.
(Thank you for watching The Love in Your Eyes.)
