(Episode 74)
(Mother)
Yes, Mother.
Oh, one moment.
She didn't have to step out.
My gosh. Why did you come here?
Your dad told you to go straight to your uncle's place.
You and Dad are going. Do I have to be there too?
I'm tired.
Hey! If your dad finds out, he'll be very angry. Hae Mi!
My goodness.
Hi, Chang Yi.
Where are you?
Oh, I was just about to leave.
You're still at home?
What about Hae Mi?
Hae Mi? Oh, she said she was on her way there from work.
I spoke to her on the phone just now.
Okay. Drive safely.
I'll see you in a bit.
Gosh, this is so stressful.
Hae Mi, you really are not going?
I told you. I'm tired.
Daughter! Then can I borrow the black coat you were wearing?
Sure.
There it is.
Let me try it on.
Oh, nice.
I knew it'd look great on me. Okay.
Goodness. She's not a kid anymore.
Why keep trash in her pockets?
What is this?
What is Yeong I doing with Kyung Jun?
Kyung Jun must be seeing someone else.
You just spoke to that woman, didn't you?
Don't worry, Mom.
Some sly fox has latched onto him,
but she's no match for me.
So she is that sly fox who is after Kyung Jun?
Mom.
Is it her?
Mom.
I am asking you if it's her!
Mom...
I will teach this fox a lesson!
Something's off.
This is right.
Switch the two.
Okay.
What about Hwa Kyung and Hae Mi?
They said they were on their way. I guess they're running behind.
- Come on in. - Hello.
- Thank you for coming.
Thank you for coming, Ms. An.
- Hi, Eun Ho. - Hello.
Wait, Do Sik.
We need one more.
It's an even number.
Right. Hey, give me another one.
Yeong I.
I thought Hwa Kyung and Hae Mi would join us too this year.
I guess they're not coming.
Here, take this.
Okay.
Let's just do it without them.
Okay then...
Chang Yi, let's begin the ceremony.
Okay.
Oh, Hwa Kyung. There you are.
I thought you weren't coming.
What took you so long? Where is Hae Mi?
Yeong I. Where is Yeong I?
What?
Hello, Auntie Hwa Kyung. You're here.
You sly fox.
- Honey! - Hwa Kyung!
Auntie Hwa Kyung.
Hwa Kyung!
Have you lost your mind?
How dare you hit her?
Why did you slap my daughter-in-law?
You stay out of this, Eun Sook.
Come here, you little fox. I said, come here!
Honey, have you lost your mind? Why are you being like this?
Let go!
I'm fuming mad right now!
You know why I'm being like this, don't you?
Tell us the truth.
What is this? Explain this!
Ms. Seo! Yeong I.
- Eun Ho. - Hold on.
Ms. So, we'll take Mi Ri Nae.
- Oh, okay. - Come here, Mi Ri Nae.
- Let's go, Eun Ho. Go on. - Gosh.
Yes, they're dating.
I only found out recently too.
But do you really have to do this, Hwa Kyung?
Must you cause such a commotion on Do Jin's death anniversary?
Think about how heartbroken Hae Mi must've been because of her!
Do you have any idea?
Yeong I got herself into this mess.
If you want to talk about it, take it up with her!
Hey, why did you do that?
Did you seduce him on purpose to make Hae Mi suffer?
Hey! How could you do this to us?
My family and I were so good to you because we felt bad...
that you had to put up with your in-laws...
and raise your child after losing your husband!
That is not what happened, Auntie Hwa Kyung.
No? Then how did this happen?
Are you telling me that Kyung Jun took those pictures with you...
because he's actually head over heels for someone like you?
- Answer. Tell us the truth! - My goodness!
That's enough. Please stop!
Please calm down, Auntie Hwa Kyung.
We have to start the ceremony now. You can talk about this later, okay?
You kids should stay out of this!
It's true, Auntie Hwa Kyung.
- What? - Kyung Jun and I...
like each other.
I knew that Hae Mi liked him for a long time,
so I pushed him away at first.
I was so torn.
It is only recently that we've started seeing each other...
Hwa Kyung!
Honey!
Eun Sook.
How dare you hit her again?
Why do you keep being so mean to her?
Yeong I is my daughter-in-law, not yours!
Eun Sook, how... How could you do this to me?
I can even do things that are way worse.
Hwa Kyung, have I ever said...
anything mean to Hae Mi?
Have I ever hit her? Not even once!
Who do you think you are?
How dare you think that you can hit my dear child?
Get out. Go!
Don't even come anywhere near my house!
Let's go, honey. We'll talk at home.
I can't leave like this.
What's Hae Mi going to do now? I can't leave.
I refuse!
Come on. Let's go!
I'm sorry, Mother.
I'm sorry, Eun Sook.
- Let go. - Come on.
What about Hae Mi?
Oh, dear.
- Goodness. - I'm sorry, Mother.
Gosh, Grandma.
Oh, boy.
Yeong I, your cheek is swollen.
- You have a scrape here. - Where?
Hey, go bring some ointment.
Okay.
We have an ice pack in the freezer, right?
Hold on a second.
Mr. Jang.
I almost missed you.
Take a seat. I'll make you a cup of tea quickly.
Thank you.
I guess it's Mi Ri Nae's birthday gift.
That's right. I could give it to Yeong I at work,
but I wanted to make sure Mi Ri Nae got it on her birthday.
Could you drop it off for me?
Sure thing.
I was going to stop by Yeong I's place on my way home anyway.
Hey, Eun Ho.
What about the memorial ceremony? Is it over already?
We couldn't do it.
Why not?
Oh, this.
It's Mi Ri Nae's birthday present. He wants me to drop it off for him.
Please take a seat.
Go home, Eun Jin.
Mi Ri Nae is there now.
At our house?
I need to have a talk with Mr. Jang before I head home.
Okay.
(Yeong I)
The person you have reached is unavailable. Please leave...
What's going on now, Yeong I?
(Cafe Pareut)
Mr. Jang.
Before you started dating Yeong I,
did you end things properly with Ms. Kim Hae Mi?
Yes, I did.
I clearly told Hae Mi that Yeong I was the one I liked.
And even before that, I never had any feelings for Hae Mi.
However, our parents weren't happy about it.
So I clearly told our parents that we were just friends.
Anyway, why are you asking me about this?
Then why did Ms. Kim's mother show up...
and slap Yeong I in the face?
What did you just say?
She slapped Yeong I.
In front of the entire family.
Ms. Kim's mother found out about your relationship with Yeong I...
and caused a big scene.
She talked as though Yeong I seduced you on purpose.
I'm sorry. I need to go see Yeong I.
You'll go see Yeong I now?
Have you forgotten what today means to her?
You said Yeong I got slapped because of me.
How could I sit back and do nothing?
You see, this is why.
This is why I was worried when you two started dating.
Stuff like this is already happening.
Things will only get worse.
Let me warn you.
I cannot let Yeong I suffer.
I totally understand that you're worried about her.
However, you're overstepping your bounds now...
by doing this.
- Overstepping my bounds? - Am I wrong?
You're not her boyfriend. I am.
It is my job to worry about her and take care of her.
So from now on,
do not tell her that you're worried about her.
Are you that confident?
I will never lose her,
no matter what.
They couldn't even start the ceremony.
How will you face Mother, Chang Il, and Eun Sook later on?
You could've waited and brought it up after the ceremony.
Wait? Why should I?
Oh, you only care about the Kim family because you're one of them.
Kim Chang Yi. Do you know how upset I am right now?
And your daughter too. Your daughter, Hae Mi!
Of course, I know how heartbroken Hae Mi is.
Even so, how could you do that in front of the whole family?
My mother was there too.
Don't blame me.
When I think about...
how heartbroken Hae Mi must've been because of Yeong I...
I wanted to flip the table upside down!
You practically did.
And from the start,
I've always told Hae Mi that she should give up.
What? Then...
are you telling me that you knew about Yeong I seducing Kyung Jun?
I know nothing.
What I'm saying is, Kyung Jun and Hae Mi aren't meant to be.
We should comfort Hae Mi.
It's over already.
No, it is not over.
I didn't do what I did to end things like this.
What's done is done.
I'll take this all the way.
I'll be sure to bring Kyung Jun to Hae Mi.
Mom, what on earth did you do at Uncle Chang Il's place?
Why are you yelling at me?
You should've told me what was going on.
I can't believe you let someone like her steal him from you.
What did you say to Yeong I?
Go to your room, Hae Mi. Talk to her when you're both calm.
Don't tell me you caused a scene in front of the whole family.
Your aunt slapped me in the face too. Unbelievable.
Your dad just stood by and watched.
Then was I supposed to join the fight? Would that have been better?
I told you that I'd figure things out on my own.
Why did you have to step in and ruin everything?
What? Do you think I'm an idiot? I didn't ruin anything!
You're driving me nuts!
Mom, did you even think about how embarrassed this would make me feel?
How will I face them now?
We don't have to see them again.
We don't need that family!
Seo Hwa Kyung.
Mom, you ruined everything. This is all on you!
Fine! Blame everything on me!
Get out of my way!
Dad, I'm not in the mood to hear your nagging.
I'm not here to nag you.
Look at me.
My dear daughter.
This must've been so hard for you.
Having to see Kyung Jun and Yeong I every day...
You must've been so heartbroken.
Dad.
Gosh. I'm so sorry, sweetheart.
Dad, I'm so hurt.
It's okay.
I'm sorry, Grandma.
Father, Mother. I'm sorry.
No wonder he looked familiar.
He was the guy in the photo that Hwa Kyung showed us.
Eun Sook and I knew about it.
I'm sorry we didn't tell you, Mother.
It's a sensitive matter.
I understand why you couldn't tell me.
I was so anxious.
I knew something like this would happen.
Even so...
Today is Do Jin's death anniversary. Why today, of all days?
I'm really sorry.
Get out. I don't want to see you right now.
Honey.
I'm sorry, Mother.
I'm sorry I caused such a scene in front of you.
Hwa Kyung started it,
but you two are equally at fault.
My goodness.
When I saw the two of you fighting like that,
I thought I was dreaming.
When I saw her slapping Yeong I in front of me,
I totally lost it.
I get that she has to put her own daughter first,
but how could she slap Yeong I in the face like that?
Yeong I is a mother too, you know.
I do not want to see Hwa Kyung again, Mother.
Help her get ready for bed.
Do Jin.
You know how the family feels, right?
Yes, I'm sure.
Even when you were very little,
you couldn't walk past a single kitten on the streets in winter.
You always kept them warm in your arms and brought them home.
You were always so understanding and forgiving.
Please try to understand.
My dear eldest grandson.
It's cold out.
Stay warm and rest in peace.
Go upstairs and get some rest, Yeong I.
We got this.
Yes. Get some rest, Yeong I.
I'll go pick up Mi Ri Nae.
I do not want to see Auntie Hwa Kyung again.
Don't say stuff like that so easily.
Mi Ri Nae.
Mom.
I didn't even realize I missed your call.
Eun Ho told me what happened.
Here, take these.
Mr. Jang was at the cafe earlier.
Mom.
Why was Great-auntie Hwa Kyung so angry at you?
That must've been scary for you, Mi Ri Nae.
Well...
Just like I cherish you more than anyone else in the world,
Auntie Hae Mi...
is the most important person to her. That's why she was so angry.
You're still young,
so you may not be able to understand this.
When you desperately want to protect someone who is very dear to you,
you could get angry like that. It's something adults do.
(Kyung Jun)
I'm texting you because you may not be able to talk now.
Yeong I.
I'm always right here for you.
When you're stressed out, feel free to vent to me.
You can tell me anything.
Just reach out your hand,
and I'll hold your hand.
Never think that you're alone.
Good night.
I know you're always there for me, Kyung Jun.
Thanks for Mi Ri Nae's birthday present.
Good night, Kyung Jun.
Mom! My candle. Hurry!
Oh, right. Okay.
Ready, go.
- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday, dear Mi Ri Nae - Happy birthday, dear Mi Ri Nae
- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you
Thank you for coming into this world, my dear daughter.
Come here.
I love you, sweetie.
I love you too.
Mom, I want to open the present from Mr. Jang.
Shall we open it now? Hold on.
There's this and...
(The Day Dad Comes Home)
My gosh. This is my favorite book, Mom!
What is this?
(Happy birthday, Mi Ri Nae.)
Title, "The Day Dad Comes Home."
Oh, it's Mr. Jang's voice.
Oh, it's here.
"My dad, who lives up above,"
"visits me every day."
"On sunny days, he comes to me as the warm sunshine."
"On rainy days, as the raindrops."
"On cold winter days, he comes to me..."
"as the white snowflakes."
"'Dad, you live up above in the sky.'"
"'Why do you visit me every day?'"
"He said, 'That is because I want to see you, Da Song.'"
"I asked, 'What about at night?'"
"Dad said, 'The bright stars you see in the night sky are me.'"
See? What did I tell you?
Your daughter-in-law is your child too.
No, she is our family. That's all.
Just admit it already. Is it that hard?
I can be mean to my family from time to time,
but when I see someone else hurt my family, I lose it.
Yeong I has such a tiny face. How could Hwa Kyung...
Gosh, I'm still so angry.
I should've slapped her once more.
Oh, dear.
Gosh, honey.
I'm home, Grandpa.
My gosh.
It looks like you had a drink or two.
Yes, I did.
Grandpa.
Yes.
Just because I love Yeong I,
and because we're...
in a relationship now...
Do we really deserve to be criticized like this...
just because of that?
I'm scared.
She has to overcome too many hurdles because of me.
What if it makes her miserable?
Grandpa, tell me what I should do.
I really want...
to protect her.
I truly want...
to make her happy.
Kyung Jun.
Just never betray her.
Sorry?
Even if everyone else in the world...
tries to bring her down and points the finger at her...
and at you as well,
side with her...
and be there for her no matter what until the day you die.
That's love, after all.
If you want to protect your love,
you need power and strength.
Don't let anything shake you up.
Be stronger.
Okay, Grandpa.
I will.
(The Love in Your Eyes)
There's someone I can...
and should never forget.
Someone you feel indebted to? I have someone like that too.
Chairman Jang.
What brings you here?
Bring me the scorecard at once.
It'll be even harder for us to fire Lee Yeong I now.
Honey, why do you seem so relaxed?
Have you given up already?
No, I never gave up.
I'm waiting for Ms. Kim to take care of her.
