Who is it?
Come in.
Hyun Jung, is it you?
Come in.
No one's here.
Goodness.
Who put them there?
Mom?
Hyun Jung!
Mom!
Hyun Jung!
Mom!
Hyun Jung.
Mom...
Se Ran, what's wrong?
Se Ran, is it a nightmare?
Is it?
Goodness. What was with that wild dream of yours?
Was it a dream?
That tiger over there.
What?
Did you see a tiger in your dream?
A tiger was there in the form of a carpet.
And over there was a pretty basket...
full of apples.
It's a conception dream.
A conception dream?
My goodness. We're meeting Tae Ju's family tomorrow,
and you dreamed of this the night before.
The people closest to the couple often have these dreams for them.
A tiger and apples. What could that mean?
Could they be having a twin boy and girl?
Anyway, it's not a dream to take lightly.
Conception dream or not,
all I want is for good things to happen.
It seems we're headed in that direction.
Gosh, it's freezing.
Tae Ju, are you asleep?
No. Why?
It's freezing out there.
Unbelievable. It's so cold.
I'm freezing.
- Was it cold out there? - Yes, but it's warm in here.
Here. Tuck yourself under the comforter.
We'll only be sleeping tonight.
Tae Ju, no touching.
- Hey. - That's off limits.
Tae Ju, this isn't PG-rated. Old habits must die hard.
- It's delicious here. - Right.
Hello. Congratulations.
Hello. Welcome.
- You made it too. - Welcome.
- Auntie. - Hey, Sang Jun.
You look incredible today.
Your boyfriend must be joining you today.
- It explains why you're dressed up. - Stop that.
I've been dying to meet him, so please introduce him to us today.
Unbelievable.
Brother-in-law, come on in!
Sure.
Auntie, come on.
Right...
- Hi, everyone. - Come on in.
Auntie?
You...
You're Tae Ju's younger brother?
You're Sang Jun's aunt?
Are you really Sang Jun's aunt?
His mother's sister?
That's right.
Sang Jun's mom is my older sister.
I can't believe this.
Did you really not know?
She's your sister and not your cousin?
She's my biological sister.
Like I said, I'm Sang Jun's aunt!
My mom and sister...
can't know that you're Tae Ju's brother.
Are they both inside?
Yes, of course.
We can't go in there together.
The second...
my mom calls you out as my boyfriend,
today's gathering...
will become a colossal mess.
You should head inside for now.
I'll come up with an excuse to stay away.
Don't.
We'll pretend...
that nothing happened.
You were a student of mine who once took my class.
That's all we are.
Head inside for now.
I'll be in touch.
Gun Woo, answer me first!
Darn it.
Aunt Hyun Jung.
Why are you out here?
Let's head inside, Great Aunt Hyun Jung.
Just a second.
Something urgent came up.
Take this and head inside.
Go on without me.
What on earth? Where is she going?
Shall we?
Come on.

(Do you like me or sweet potatoes?)
If you don't take your pencils back,
I'll put them into the sweet potato roaster.
Excuse me.
We're closed now.
Oh, okay.
Considering the time she texted me,
I think she found the pencils as soon as I left.
Then she must've taken this photo and sent it to me.
(Ms. Kim So Rim)
But still, this is just too harsh.
Why would she put them in the sweet potato roaster?
I guess it's good manners to go take them back.
Dad, this is not fair.
You promised you'd invite your girlfriend to brunch this week.
Well... I don't remember saying that.
You two should enjoy your brunch alone this week.
Where are you going? You can't leave.
We have something to tell you.
Something to tell me? What is it?
I want to know if you are thinking of marrying her.
Her? Whom are you talking about?
The woman who came to see you at the office.
I said it wasn't like that.
But why?
Once you marry her,
we want to get married too.
Right.
It's too soon to talk about marriage...
Anyway, we can talk about it later. I should get going now.
Enjoy your food.
Wait, Dad...
I think he's going to meet his girlfriend.
You think? Should we go out and follow him now?
The pizza is getting cold.
For now, let's just eat.
And we can try staking out the cafe later.
Okay.
I'll watch my future mother-in-law closely.
I don't think I can call her Mom though.
Maybe I should just call her ma'am.
I think I will call her Mother with no problem.
I bet you will be her beloved son-in-law.
I really hope so. But what if she is bad-tempered...
and calls me like, "Hey, Cho Nam Soo!"
- What? - I'm just joking.
Let's eat pizza.
Mother, I love you.
Today's menu is galbijjim made with rib-eye.
I added curry powder and marinated it...
the special sauce I made.
The name of the dish is Happy Curry, which means...
the dish will make you happy.
I'm so honored to treat my in-laws to a meal...
with the dishes I made myself.
I'm really happy.
I hope you will enjoy the food and have a lot of fun.
- Yes. - Sure. Thank you.
Actually, this place used to be Haengbok Kalguksu...
which was named after my son.
Haengbok Kalguksu is...
where Tae Ju's mom and dad first met.
And now, it's Today's Curry,
which is a popular restaurant.
I believe the place you're sitting in now...
will bring you good luck.
I guess that's why you wanted to have...
our first family gathering here.
You're the best, Ms. Choi.
Thank you.
Hurray for Ms. Choi!
- You say that too. - Ms. Choi.
I love you.
I love you too.
I hope today will leave us with happy memories.
Let's have a good talk without ceremony...
and congratulate Tae Ju and Sang Jun...
with warm applause.
All right. Please give them a big hand.
All right.
We're not in a nightmare now, are we?
No.
This is the reality we're in.
And in the next town,
they are having a family gathering.
(Tae Ju)
It's Tae Ju.
Hey, Tae Ju.
Where are you now? Why aren't you coming in?
Well...
The patient I performed the toe surgery on two days ago...
have a problem, so I rushed to the hospital.
Yes.
Don't worry about me and enjoy your meal.
Okay. I'll call you later.
Quiet.
Hello, Se Ran.
Why aren't you coming?
Young Sik's family is here already.
The thing is, my stomach suddenly hurts.
I think I should go see a doctor.
It's not serious, so don't worry.
I'll call you back later.
When Sang Jun was talking to you on the phone at my place,
I was right next to him.
Tae Ju told me to bring...
her future uncle-in-law.
Earlier, I was taken aback and lost for words,
but now I'm sort of relieved.
It's a good thing that we're in-laws.
What's good about that?
It's all clear now.
We shouldn't be together.
My mom and sister like you, so if they ask me,
I'll say you're just my student,
and I have no romantic feelings for you.
Let's do this.
Are you sure you can lie to them?
It's not a lie.
It was the weather.
I was confused about you for a moment,
but it won't happen again.
Are you serious?
I am.
You know what?
I've liked you since I was 20.
And I was happy to see you again.
I thought we met again because we were meant to be...
Let's not talk about that.
- But last night... - Let's just...
forget the whole thing.
For now,
stop coming to the cafe.
Stay out of my mom and sister's sight.
And I'll pretend I'm seeing someone else.
Then it's all fine.
Someone else who?
I'm just saying that.
Gun Woo.
You should see someone nice.
I'll be on your sister's side...
as one of her in-laws.
How can this be happening?
That's life.
You'll get it sooner or later.
What if I miss you?
What then?
Think of your sister Tae Ju.
I'm...
your sister's husband's aunt.
What if I still can't give up?
Thanks for your help with yesterday's shoot.
I won't use that clip.
- If I still can't give up... - Goodbye.
When you see your family this evening, don't look glum.
Let's not give up this easily.
Let's take some time to think about it.
You need to go.
Can the bride and groom please stand?
I'd like to propose a toast for the bride and groom.
I ate here since I was in elementary school.
I never thought we'd get to have this party here too.
Life will bring us good things and some rough times,
but I'll hold Tae Ju's hand tight...
and march ahead.
When we say, "Sang Jun, Tae Ju,"
please shout out, "Be happy."
Sang Jun.
Tae Ju.
- Be happy! - Be happy!
Congratulations, everyone.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Father.
Hey.
I feel so happy today.
Everyone here is family now.
I feel reassured.
I'm happy too, as my name suggests.
Whoever named you "happiness" had awesome taste.
Years ago, I had a dog called Happy.
Did you?
Is your youngest, your son not here?
He came right up to the door,
but he had to return urgently to the hospital.
Oh, is your son a doctor too?
Yes.
My grandson's a very handsome orthopedist.
Oh, I see.
My younger sister's seeing an orthopedist too.
I see.
Now that you mention it, she's not here either.
Something suddenly came up. She must be running late.
I apologize.
There's no need to apologize.
- What? - Stop it.
- Hello. - Oh, hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
I'm sorry for getting you wet last time.
Oh, that.
I paid the price for what Sang Min did.
It's okay.
What? Did you come over to badmouth me?
She's the reason I was against this marriage.
Don't worry. You have us now.
Whose side are you on?
Tae Ju's, of course.
What?
I heard you decorated the whole place.
You did a great job.
Thank you.
You can't really call them decorations.
I just put up a few light bulbs.
The Christmas tree outside is beautiful.
Isn't it? People come by to take photos.
You should take some too.
- Sure. - Okay.
Smile.
- Oh? - How about...
- we toast to the couple? - Yes.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
- Nice to meet you. - I hope we get along.
Where did they go?
Did she burn them for real?
- Hello, sir. - Hello.
So...
In the fire that you have in there,
do you burn pencils too?
Yes, I do.
That's why the fire's extra strong today.
But why...
Why would you burn pencils when you have so much firewood?
Isn't that too much?
I need to take a look inside.
To get whatever's still left.
Okay, then.
Why would you burn pencils?
Is that it?
Are you looking for this?
What...
She told me to tell you...
I burned pencils too, if you asked.
Can you watch the fire for me?
Oh, sure...
You can't have it back.
Fine. You can keep them all.
Why'd you come back, then?
You said you'd burn it if I didn't come for it.
Why do you care if I burn what's mine?
Why did you come here?
You want to confuse me, don't you?
If that's how you felt, I apologize.
Go away.
Ms. So Rim.
What?
With the pens I gave you, write only nice, happy thoughts.
Don't burn them with the sweet potatoes.
- Don't write anything sad... - Don't even care anymore.
Tell me honestly.
Why'd you leave the pencil?
Because you like pencils.
Then why'd you come back for it?
Because you said you'd burn it if I didn't.
Are you in elementary school?
I have no idea what you're saying.
You're not honest or courageous and you can't hide your feelings.
That's why you're still in a lowly sales position.
You can't rise to manager or chief.
I never said I'm a lowly guy in sales.
That's just your assumption.
Either way, just go.
Give me back that pencil.
I don't want to.
I'm sorry for leaving it and for coming back for it.
- Just give it back. - No.
- Give it back. - No.
Send me the photos you took of me at the last bus stop.
From above too.
- Ready? - An aerial shot.
I haven't sent them to you yet?
No. After sending them to me,
you must take a photo too.
That's only fair.
Then I'll give you two pencils.
What the...
Come on.
Sit over there. Go on.
What...
Stay still. Don't move.
These look like feelers.
Let me take this out.
You did the same to me that day.
I did that to make you look prettier.
I'll make you look prettier too.
Don't I look a bit silly with two?
Yes, you really look silly.
We both concluded that was a silly look.
I know that, and I looked silly.
Then why did you stick these on either side?
This is called revenge.
Fine. If getting revenge makes you feel better, great.
Look at me. Are you ready?
Smile.
Show four teeth, four upper teeth.
Smile wide.
Smile.
Do I look silly?
Of course you do. Don't worry.
So Rim.
- Hey, Dad. - Gosh.
What are you doing?
Nothing.
A silly customer came by, not knowing we close on weekends.
You can't call a customer silly.
I'm so very sorry.
We're hosting a family gathering.
- I see. - I made curry galbijjim...
and curry pasta today.
Would you like some to go?
Gosh, I'd appreciate that.
That isn't necessary, Dad.
He wasn't able to eat the last time he came by.
- It won't take long. - Right.
My gosh.
Here you go.
Thank you.
It's not like this is from me.
Can you text me my photos later today?
I'll think about it.
I don't know what it's about, but they must be having a good time.
We're laughing and chatting, I guess.
I'm glad.
How so?
Because you'll write about something happy today.
Since he offered me this delicious meal,
I'll buy everyone some baked sweet potatoes.
Have whatever is in the roaster as dessert.
Sure. Have a good day, then.
Right. Thank you for the food.
Sir, the sweet potatoes...
What now?
I was worried you'd throw something at me.
Unfortunately, my hands are empty today.
Right. What a relief.
Is it me you like or the sweet potatoes?
I want an answer.
Here's another chance for you to be honest.
Is it the sweet potatoes you like, or is it me?
I like sweet potatoes.
Is that what you'll write in your diary tonight?
- Yes. - I'd like to read it.
It's rude to ask someone to show them their diary.
That's weird.
Although I haven't read it,
I feel like I have.
Your diary entry for today, I mean.
So Rim, come have your noodles.
- Sure. - You should head inside.
Don't forget that we're closed on weekends.
Of course. Sure thing.
Right.
- Come on, So Rim. - Go on and head inside.
You should head inside.
- Right. - Right.

Who's calling me?
Hello?
I have a parcel for you, but your studio's closed.
Hello?
I have a parcel for you, but your studio's closed.
It says "LED light bulbs" on the box.
The light bulbs I ordered must already be here.
You can leave it by the door.
But what if someone steals it?
The security camera's there for extra protection.
You can leave it there. Thank you.
(Photo and Essay)
It's the fake Prosecutor Bae Dong Chan.
I'm curious as to why you pretended not to know me...
when you did.
(BG Logistics)
Look friendlier. In 2, 3.
Let's laugh since it's a good day.
All right, good luck! Wait, that isn't right.
Let's smile!
That's great. Keep laughing.
Why don't we take photos too?
Sure.
Sang Jun, when are you going to officially move in?
Oh, right. Mom,
I'll be staying at Sang Jun's...
from Monday to Friday.
We'll stay at your place on the weekends.
But Sang Jun agreed to move in with us.
His manager has to come and go easily,
and we have a small living room with one bathroom.
It's uncomfortable.
I've been talking to a contractor about an additional bathroom...
and got an estimate for it.
The house will go under renovation too.
There's no need for that. We can just stay for the weekend.
The unit Sang Jun lives in...
is right above mine,
but I don't know the combination to his front door lock.
I won't come and go as I please.
Besides, Tae Ju will find it easier...
to go to work from Sang Jun's place.
Sang Jun, this isn't what you promised.
I suggested it, Mom.
Mother, you should come by my place sometime.
It'll be comfortable for Tae Ju,
so please don't worry.
My goodness.
Tae Ju agreed to sit down with us for a meal...
at least 2 or 3 times a week.
What?
Tae Ju won't be cooking though.
You don't have to worry.
Of course she shouldn't cook for anyone.
But just eating with in-laws is stressful enough,
and you want her to do that a couple of times a week?
Didn't you live with your mother-in-law...
right after you got married?
Why do you think I've had chronic gastritis?
My gosh. Why I never...
I see. My goodness.
You saying that makes me look like a terrible mother-in-law.
Sang Jun, move in with us instead.
You can have meals with us at least 2 to 3 times a week.
This isn't something you should be stubbornly persistent about.
What do you mean I'm being stubborn?
This is what they agreed on.
Tae Ju could've caved in.
That's not the case, Mom.
Are you implying that we threatened her?
I'm sure the threats were nonverbal.
Who wants to have meals with their in-laws these days?
- No... - Sang Min, no.
Don't you have a brother of your own?
You'll soon be the in-laws that you dread so much.
Can't you see you're ruining the party for everyone?
You're the one who made it worse.
Sang Min?
Let's keep it down.
But I didn't do anything.
Okay, fine. Let's stick to a continental breakfast instead.
All we want is to see Tae Ju often,
so we'll have light meals instead.
I'm good with any sort of meal.
As if.
Ms. Yoo, you startled us.
There's no need to yell.
How can I not raise my voice right now?
She just had to ruin the good mood.
Mother, light or heavy, we won't go there for meals.
Please don't be angry.
You're the worst, Sang Jun.
Did you have to ruin a perfectly good day?
You're the one who ruined the day.
Why do you want...
my daughter over for meals 2 to 3 times a week?
- Are you insane? - Mom!
My gosh. Why don't we...
I can't believe you called me insane...
when my mother is also present.
- Look here, dear in-law. - Dear in-law.
Do be quiet, dear in-law.
- Let's take a photo. - Sure thing.
Okay, everyone.
Please keep arguing.
- I love natural settings. - We'll start over here.
I loved the sulk you had on your face just now.
- Please stop. - All right.
- Please keep arguing. - Over here as well.
Sure thing.
Photos last a lifetime,
so let's smile for now.
- Let's smile. - Go on.
- Let's all smile. - Looking good.
Please keep arguing.
- Stop it. - This is great.
- That's enough. - Please keep arguing. In 1, 2.
- Here we go. - Please don't.
All right. Let us make things clear.
We'll stay at Sang Jun's on weekdays.
We'll be over at Tae Ju's on weekends.
That's how it will be.
We will refrain from having meals with my family.
What a fussy family.
Is having meals with in-laws what you prefer?
I'm going to marry a foreigner.
See? You're also against having meals with your in-laws.
- That's hardly the case. - As if.
I have your sweet potatoes!
Someone bought all those that were in the roaster...
for us to enjoy.
Have your fill and take some home if you want.
There are even more outside.
Please enjoy.
Isn't this what youngsters usually wear?
You're young enough and should dress this way.
Besides, your girlfriend would love it.
I'm not sure.
Your look seemed too gentle when you left the house earlier.
It's why Nam Soo and I picked up a few things...
that would make you desirable.
He picked these out for you.
Mr. Cho,
what did I say about working on weekends?
This is hardly work, sir. I'm pleased to help.
My gosh.
Where can one buy clothes like these though?
I'll make sure to keep your closet filled, sir.
Think of me as your secretary...
and also your personal stylist.
From now on, I'll be in charge of your outfits on dates.
Still, this is quite embarrassing.
Dad, do you know what they call you at the office?
I hear employees call me a recluse.
Actually, it's Leo.
Leo?
Because you looked...
like Leonardo DiCaprio when you were younger.
Unbelievable.
Didn't you know that? I thought he was your sibling.
Mr. Cho, cut the nonsense, will you?
Anyway, I'm urging you to clock out.
Please try these on when you go on your dates. Got it?
- Sure. - I'll see you at the office,
CEO Leo.
Thank you for the hard work.
Maybe they do suit me.
- Gosh. - Goodness.
What a hectic day.
I thought Gun Woo would eventually come by.
Everything is fine with the patient who went into surgery.
As it should be.
He had to miss the family event for that.
I let Sang Jun's family have the rest of the sweet potatoes.
Good.
That was my first time arguing at a family gathering.
We still parted ways with smiles on our faces.
That's only because everyone was drunk.
Still, it was a fun day for all of us.
Sang Jun's the only normal person in that household.
Please, Mom. Don't say things like that.
I'd want to have meals a couple of times a week...
with Gun Woo's wife after he gets married.
You wouldn't tell her that even if it's what you want.
Sang Jun's family openly suggested it...
which makes them different.
Don't worry. I have a plan of my own.
What kind of plan?
I'll offer to cook meals...
and make beef curry, vegetable curry,
cheese curry, pumpkin curry...
There's also curry udon, curry pasta,
curry tteokbokki, curry soup,
cheese curry with sweet potatoes, and cheese curry with spinach!
Feed them that for a week,
and they'll want you to have meals separately.
Exactly.
You shouldn't cook it with my recipes though.
My curry is addictive and will never get old.
Dad, that would be disastrous.
I'd never do that.
If they harass you in any way,
I'll make Sang Jun pay in double on the weekend.
Goodness.
Gun Woo, goodness. Is your patient all right?
Yes.
You should've joined us when you could.
We went from eating, drinking, and even arguing...
until late in the evening.
She's right.
I'm sorry I missed it.
Get some rest, then.
Sure.
- What's going on? - Beats me.
- Let's go to him. - Sure.
Gun Woo, take a seat.
What?
Are you sure your patient's all right?
Of course.
Why do you look sullen though?
Because I missed a delicious meal.
- Was it fun? - It was.
It felt like the beginning of a family war.
Everyone was there except for you and Sang Jun's aunt.
I see.
Did you break up with the woman you've been seeing?
What do you mean?
You've been busy with romance lately.
We only ask because you seem upset today.
Don't be absurd. I haven't been seeing anyone.
Nurse Kim told me...
you've been going on dates every day.
That it's evident in the way you dress.
That's her way of teasing me.
- Anyway, I'll go and wash up. - But...
Something must be up with him.
By the way, who bought all those sweet potatoes for us?
A patron who loves Dad's curry.
Well, I'm grateful.
Right?
I thought you were only having lunch.
How's your upset stomach?
I'm feeling better.
Things were so hectic that I lost track of time.
The baked sweet potatoes are on the dining table.
Have some when you get hungry.
I see you had a good time.
A good time?
Well, I can't say that it wasn't fun.
Why didn't you come by later on in the evening?
Only you and Tae Ju's brother were absent today.
Apparently, he's also a doctor.
I can't believe they have two children who are doctors.
By the way, what did Sang Jun and Tae Ju agree upon?
Right.
The wedding will be put on hold as well as the honeymoon.
In the meantime, Tae Ju will move in with Sang Jun.
But they'll be staying at Tae Ju's on weekends.
It would've been nice...
for you to have come by with Dr. Kim.
Se Ran, I'm not dating him.
It was only a silly idea that I briefly entertained.
You said you liked him though.
When did I say that?
He's not the one for me.
Anyway, please know that. I'll let you rest, then.
Sang Min, can't you collect your own parcels when they come in?
You should've been at the family gathering today.
Things were a darn mess.
If only you had seen how obnoxious Tae Ju's family is.
Why do you keep buying things when you don't earn any money?
I've been sticking to the little things these days.
- Like socks, headbands... - Unbelievable.
- And nail polish. - As if.
I wonder what this is.
I'm having a hard time...
keeping track of the things I bought.
Wait.
This isn't what I ordered.
As if.
You bought gloves?
It's Bae Dong Chan.
Why that crazy jerk...
What's wrong?
It's from Bae Dong Chan. That fake prosecutor.
What?
(BG Logistics)
I apologize, Sang Min.
I know it's hard for you to forgive me,
but all I ask for is some of your time.
I have something to share about your cousin.
What is he talking about?
Who is he trying to con again?
What about Young Sik does he want to talk about?
Who knows? Maybe he's sour about getting beat up by Young Sik.
You darn fraud.
Take that.
(Photo and Essay)
Have the bulbs burned out?
No.
I just ordered them to create a warmer atmosphere.
In winter, it'd be nice to have...
some yellow bulbs instead of the fluorescent lights.
Eun Ju, you're such an exemplary housewife.
Thank you.
Thank you for helping us wash the dishes and clean up that day.
Gosh, please don't say that.
I should thank your son for preparing the food.
Hey, do we have some sweet potatoes left?
Of course. I'll go heat them up for you.
The family gathering was quite boisterous and fun.
I'm sure our grandchildren will live happily ever after.
By the way, did you hear any good news?
Like what?
My daughter had a dream about the conception of a baby.
What was the dream like?
It was a dream about a tiger and an apple.
That must be a conception dream.
Maybe it's a boy-girl twin.
That's what I thought.
But who is the conception dream for?
I think it's for Sang Jun and Tae Ju.
I don't think so.
I'm very conservative, so I drew a clear line.
I'm sure they never did such a thing.
You can't be so sure.
Young people these days are nothing like us.
Is there anyone in your family who might bring good news?
I heard Sang Jun had an aunt.
It might be her.
I hope that's the case.
But I still think it's for Tae Ju and Sang Jun.
I'd love to see Sang Jun have...
a healthy baby boy.
Isn't the owner of this place here?
He's out to take wedding photos, so he will be back by around three.
Is that so?
Are you here to have your ID photo taken?
Yes.
Would you like to make an appointment?
Just tell me the time you want, and I'll get him the message.
No. I'll come next time.
There's a photo of Lee Sang Jun, the actor.
Yes. He took the photo here when he just made his debut.
That photo has been here for 20 years.
Have you been here before?
Because Mr. Jang is that good.
Of course, he is.
- I'll come back later. - Okay.
- See you. - Bye.
It feels somewhat strange.
What do you mean?
She seems like Mr. Jang's ex-girlfriend or something.
My goodness.
Young Sik couldn't even afford to date anyone before marriage.
His wife is his first love.
And they are still such lovebirds.
Men and melons are hard to know.
My goodness. How could you say that about our family's eldest son?
Grandma, the sweet potatoes are ready.
They are still good when they're reheated.
Eun Ju.
Has Young Sik ever seen anyone else other than you?
Pardon? What are you talking about?
Gosh, it's nothing.
Why would you ask her that?
Some woman just stopped by to have her ID photo taken.
And Ms. Choi says she looked like Young Sik's ex-girlfriend.
Gosh, I was just joking.
He's been always with me since when we were in our 20s.
I don't think he ever had time to cheat on me.
I can assure you.
My goodness. It was just a joke.
- Gosh. - I bet the woman was pretty.
Pretty, my foot.
You look a lot prettier than her.
You're the best, Grandma.
Please enjoy the sweet potatoes. I'll go clean up.
- Okay. - All right.
- Eat. - My gosh.
Mr. Wang and Mr. Lee are on their way here.
- Please have a seat. - Okay.
Would you like some coffee?
Sound great.
- Ice Americano? - Yes, please.
Gosh, he's got a lot of scripts.
("The Moon That Embraces the Sword")
(Lee Sang Jun has a son, and I'm the mother.)
"Lee Sang Jun has a son,"
"and I'm the mother?"
Mr. Cha, it's been a while.
- Did I make you wait long? - No.
I didn't mean to read it, but I just found this.
I know.
After my marriage was reported,
we got some ridiculous comments on the agency's website...
and even notes like that.
You should respond strongly to malicious comments like that.
Aren't you supposed to report this to the police?
It's not even worthy of a report.
- All right. Let's have a seat. - Okay.
Ji Woo told me that the family gathering was a lot of fun.
Gosh, it was just like a sitcom.
And I see you get a lot of scripts.
Before I pick my next role, I'll discuss it with my agency...
and give it a lot of thought.
But it shouldn't take too much time.
We will choose about two projects...
before someone else snatches away the good ones.
And we will do your project as we promised earlier.
Thank you.
Then we will get to meet more often.
Sure. Let's meet often.
Okay.
(New Business Proposals, Foreign Investors)
Your photo came out better than I expected.
Excuse me, Mr. Sin.
Hey.
The video I was supposed to finish by today is not done yet.
Give me some more time.
Have you been busy dating your boyfriend?
That's not true.
Fine. I can wait.
Send me when it's ready.
Thank you.
By the way, what was so funny?
No, it's nothing.
Come on. If it's fun, just share it with me.
I need to get some ideas.
What are you doing? I said it was nothing.
Come on, just show me.
You were watching something with a smile.
No.
- Hey. - Just show me.
This is my privacy.
- Stop it. - Just give me that.
Hello. I've always wanted to meet you.
Hello. I'm Cho Nam Soo from the CEO's Secretary's Office.
Nice to meet you.
Well... Yes, hello.
I don't want you to get the wrong idea though.
I was just trying to see his phone...
Right. She suddenly...
Let's have a meal together this weekend.
We will prepare a nice brunch.
What?
I see.
This company has such a friendly environment.
Please excuse me.
Mr. Sin, I'll give you a call.
Hey, you can't leave just like this... Wait.
- Gosh, she's... - She's very beautiful.
I know.
She's a friend.
She seems like a very close friend.
- She looks smart and gorgeous. - Right.
I'll work even harder...
as your stylist.
The misunderstanding will soon be cleared up,
so I won't make an excuse.
Get back to work.
Wait, you two.
Don't stick together like this at work.
And stop coming to my office together like this.
Yes, sir. We will get going then.
We'll be out.
An office full of love.
What are you talking about?
Gosh, why did she show up all of a sudden?
(Influencer marketing, comic concepts)
(Sweet potato)
I came too early, right?
No, it's actually nice. We have more time to talk.
- This is for you. - Thank you.
You seem to be in a good mood.
Ms. So Rim, I'm only telling you...
You can call me So Rim at work.
Then I'll call you Ms. So Rim.
Okay.
I just saw our CEO's girlfriend.
Our CEO? Your father, you mean?
Yes.
Seeing your father's girlfriend put you in a good mood?
Yes. After getting divorced when I was young,
Dad was alone and lonely for a long time.
So I'm happy.
It's nice to have someone to rely on in old age.
Good for him.
Others object to their parents...
getting remarried because of financial reasons,
but I'm all for it.
I want my dad to remarry soon and give me a sibling.
You two must be close.
I think we get along because we're not.
There's no reason to argue.
Does your father know you're dating a colleague?
Yes. Assistant Manager Cho serves our CEO so well.
He would do his best, wouldn't he?
Mr. Sin.
Our CEO was there?
Yes, just now.
He likes your ideas and supports you a lot.
Would you like to meet him?
Yes.
Hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello.
(List of Influencers)
Lots of influencers...
post halfheartedly or don't even post at all.
I think we should weed some out.
I disagree.
They all have over 100,000 followers,
and the executives think old PR practices have limits.
We can't force them to post,
but we can't sue them over a minor deal either.
How about we nudge their emotional side?
Show them that we as a company care about them.
For example, you could hand-write personalized letters.
Handwritten letters are a lot of work.
You can hire people to do the work.
You give them a sample and have them write copies.
Doesn't hiring someone defeat the purpose of handwritten letters?
We should do all the writing.
With blotches and all so it looks real.
That might cost too much.
Right.
Ms. So Jin, no...
Your name is So Rim?
- Yes, Mr. Cho. - Okay.
The doodles in your notebook show you have nice handwriting.
Since it's your idea, why don't you do the writing?
That's 50 letters to the influencers...
and 50 to our top customers.
You can't expect her to write 100 letters.
You should be responsible for your suggestion.
I can do it. It's nothing.
To Jelly Jung who deeply loves our products.
Hello.
It's already December and time to wrap up the year.
I thank you deeply for the love and support you showed us.
I'd be so grateful if you could grace the event with your presence.
From Gipeun Cosmetics in the deep of winter with much thanks.
I'd love to meet you, Jelly Jung.
I mean it.
That's just the first one.
When will I ever finish all 100?
I can do this.
I can do it.
Gun Woo.
Are you sick or something? Why are you out here?
Hey.
I just wanted to rest.
You're rarely at home on your day off.
I'm getting older myself.
What a joke.
If you're bored, come with me to Sang Jun's.
What? Why are you headed over there?
I'm taking Mom and Grandma to see Sang Jun's place.
You could come along and say hi to Sang Jun's mom and grandmother.
Well...
No. I'll visit some other time.
Take care.
It looks like a place a star would live in.
Don't you think it's nice?
It's quite spacious.
It'll be hard to keep clean.
The vacuum cleaner does the cleaning.
If Sang Jun and I do half each, it's done in no time.
It's not like we must clean every day.
I'm thinking of replacing the windows.
As you can see, I have everything we need.
Tae Ju doesn't need to buy anything.
Do you want to change anything like the curtains?
We don't have to spend money for the sake of spending.
We don't need anything.
Dowry, wedding gifts, souvenirs, we'll skip everything.
Don't worry.
There's a room I can use as a study so it's great.
Auntie.
Hello.
I'm Jang Hyun Jung, Sang Jun's aunt.
I missed the gathering because I was unwell.
I apologize.
You needn't apologize. It's fine.
Thank you for joining our family.
I made some cookies with all the love of my heart.
They're for you.
Oh, my goodness.
Thank you for putting in the effort.
It smells nice and nutty.
They just came out of the oven.
Oats, oatmeal, almonds. They're made with all that's good for you.
Gun Woo will love these.
Yes, he will.
- By the way. - Yes?
You had a conception dream?
I don't know if it's a conception dream,
but I dreamed of a tiger and a basket of apples.
It sounds like one.
Yes.
Are you two already...
Oh, no. We're actually conservative. It's not us.
It's really not us, Mom.
It feels weirder to hear you deny it.
You're legally married.
I know.
We'll work on it.
Would you like to see the rooms? Come this way.
Okay.
Auntie, thanks for the cookies.
You're welcome.
It's so reassuring to have you around.
I'll help as best I can so your in-laws...
don't stress you out too much.
Thank you.
Oh, I hoped to meet your fiance.
I'm not seeing anyone.
You said you were seeing a nice guy.
I didn't mean it.
It's true.
I hope you meet a really nice guy.
Thanks.
Tae Ju, come over here!
I'm coming.
It looks delicious.
You're home early. Are you not going on dates anymore?
No.
What are those?
You should taste one.
I've never had anything like them. They're delicious.
We visited Sang Jun's place.
His aunt came by and gave them to us.
She baked them.
If Dad's a curry fairy, Auntie's a cookie fairy.
They're so good.
I can feel and taste the almonds and they have a great flavor.
Sang Jun's aunt is pretty and she seems nice, which is a relief.
Gun Woo, have one. It's light and...
Hey.
Why are you crying?
I have conjunctivitis.
My eyes sting and they tear up.
See an eye doctor tomorrow.
I will.
- Goodness. - Oh, dear.
I thought he cried over the cookies.
Don't be silly. Why would he cry over a snack?
You could shed a tear if you taste something really nice.
My curry made lots of people cry.
Of course you did. You're the curry fairy.
You do look a bit like a fairy.
I was out of my mind. I did this to myself.
All right.
I can do this.
Some shut-eye won't kill me.
I...
(To Jelly Jung who deeply loves our products.)
I see they can make printed texts look handwritten these days.
Those were written by hand.
Someone's been writing these?
Yes, the one who suggested the idea offered.
I bet it'll take all night.
I'm sure she'll get it done if that's what it takes.
Mr. Sin, should I pull your car out front?
No, I'll get it myself. See you tomorrow.
Sure.
Have a pleasant night.
Why don't we head to the coffee shop?
Sure. Wait downstairs for me. I'll be right out.
- Let's go. - Sure thing.
I see. All I have to do is copy this word for word.
(Who deeply loves our products...)
What is he doing in there?
It must be a dream.
Yes, you're dreaming.
(Three Bold Siblings)
Gun Woo and Aunt Hyun Jung seem to know each other.
Really?
Young Sik knew that my fiance wasn't a prosecutor,
but he lied to me.
I know it's absurd,
but I wanted to hear it from you.
Can I let Sang Jun know, then?
I'm sure Tae Ju will understand.
What's your issue with that Mu Yeong guy?
I don't think he has feelings for me.
Just for the day, and just for ten seconds,
I'll be shameless.
