(Episode 113)
How could you know about something that happened before you were born?
I'm the one who went through that.
I've been tormented by what they did for the past 30 years.
I understand that you were in deep pain.
But they told me it happened...
because there was no trust between you guys.
My parents...
never did anything they would be ashamed of.
Unbelievable. How dare you keep telling me that?
Wait. Are you...
making these claims only based on what your parents told you?
So are you telling me to come to my senses...
because I'm mistaken?
That wasn't my intention.
You seem to remember the same incident differently.
So I was just hoping you would listen to their side of the story.
Listen to their side of the story?
Listen. Your parents committed a morally wrong act.
Why would I listen to their side of the story?
Mom, please calm down.
Forget it.
So you only want to believe what your parents are saying.
Then we can go and ask them now.
Whether your parents have an affair with each other or not.
Whether they lied to you or not.
Mom.
Eun Sung.
We must clear this up at least once.
(Haha Chicken)
Seriously.
You really have to give it to her and her temper.
When she doesn't approve of something,
she has to express her disapproval. You know?
Exactly.
Since she came all the way here,
she should've stayed until we finished.
How could...
Why did you come back?
Did you forget something?
Or do you want to continue our discussion?
This isn't about Eun Hyuk.
I'm here to talk about us.
I must clarify what you guys did...
thirty years ago,
so no one dares distort the truth.
What? What happened 30 years ago?
Why all of a sudden?
Are you seriously asking us to talk about that again?
The day he bought medicine for me?
Yes.
If you have nothing to hide, why can't you talk about it?
Ko Chun Young. You told your daughter that...
you never had an affair.
Did you call Eun Sung and scold her again? Is that it?
"Since your parents had an affair with each other,"
"you should break up with Sun Woo."
I neither called her nor scolded her.
I ran into her on my way home.
Your daughter and my son were holding hands...
in broad daylight...
while disregarding their parents' wishes.
So what do you suggest that we do?
Should we lock them up...
because they're seeing each other outside?
Were you even listening to me?
Let's make it clear that they can never be together.
Your daughter held her head up high and told me...
that you two were absolutely innocent.
The kids are outside of this place right now.
What?
Are you saying you brought them here?
Yes. They're waiting outside...
to find out the truth of what happened that day.
Are you in your right mind?
I understand that you must be upset,
but how could you drag them into this matter?
Gosh.
If they have a clear conscience, they can just tell the truth.
What are they afraid of that they're so flustered?
You guys go home.
This is a matter between us.
He's right. This doesn't concern you two.
Why does it not concern them?
It seems like your daughter believed your words,
and not mine, and got the courage to start over with Sun Woo.
Mother, please stop it.
Stop doing what?
Don't you want to know?
If I'm...
trying to separate you two, believing what's not true...
of there's actually a reason that you can't be together.
But arguing like this...
won't help us to find out what the truth is.
It's already been 30 years.
Even so, no parent would lie in front of their child.
So I'll tell you...
what I saw that day...
Do tell.
What on earth did you see?
Tell them everything.
I'm not ashamed of myself at all.
Enough, both of you.
Must we let our children...
see us having such an ugly fight?
Besides, people pass through this alley.
It's not something to be proud of. Why would you make a scene?
That's why we should go inside.
We won't go inside.
Sun Woo.
Go home with your mother now.
Yes, Father. I'll do that.
Mother, let's go home. You're too carried away now.
Let go. I'm not going anywhere.
Look at Yoo Eun Sung.
She doesn't seem to want to leave.
Dad.
I don't want to see you and Mom being misunderstood...
I told you...
that it wasn't your place to step in.
Mother, let's get going.
If you want to go, go without me.
I want to see the end today.
All right.
But let's settle it among us...
without the kids!
Eun Sung.
Sun Woo.
Go home.
Understood.
Eun Sung, let's go.
I'll get going.
I'll get going, Mother.
Mother, I'll be off.
She left after all.
Then why did she act all confident?
You must've stressed her out so much...
that she was frustrated to the point that she came here.
I'm the one who's been frustrated for 30 years.
Do you think I'm not frustrated?
I feel like I'm going crazy! Can't you see?
I wish I could show you what's inside my head!
Seriously.
Ha Young, all our parents gave their approval.
They decided to let us get married.
I got calls from the elders.
They said they would discuss details of our marriage.
I think we owe it all to our baby.
I mean, we were meant to be together,
but our baby made it happen sooner than it was supposed to.
I think you're right.
Our baby helped us even before being born.
But...
it still doesn't feel real...
that I'm going to be a mom.
To be honest, I feel the same way.
It's hard to believe that I'm going to be a dad.
Do you think...
we'll be good parents?
Of course, we will be.
If we love and respect each other,
we can build a happy family for sure.
Was it too banal?
What's wrong with a banal comment?
Well... The fact that it's been said commonly...
proves that there have been many people who felt that way.
Ha Young.
Let's become really happy together...
to the point that everyone is jealous of us.
With our baby.
I'll be good.
For the sake...
of both you and our baby.
- A bump nickname? - Yes.
We'll give our nibling a nickname.
We can't keep calling it just "baby."
Hey, that's what the parents do.
We're the mother's in-laws. In-laws shouldn't meddle in it.
Come on. It doesn't always have to be the parents who name a baby.
Also, what's wrong with in-laws' involvement?
It's not a bad thing. It's an expression of affection.
Hey, you hated Ms. Shin, saying she was sly.
I guess you had a change of heart since you now soon have a nibling.
It's already been decided.
So it's pointless to keep putting in my two cents.
I'll only get on the wrong side of them before they get married.
These days,
women rather intimidate their mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
Mothers-in-law and sisters-in-law don't intimidate...
a new member of the family, unlike in the past.
So did you come up with any good nicknames?
You must've brought it up first because you had an idea.
Well...
Den?
How about "Den?"
"Den?"
Yes, it's shortened from "sudden."
What? "Sudden?"
The baby was conceived all of a sudden,
- which took us all by surprise... - Hey.
Don't even suggest that nickname to Eun Hyuk.
And absolutely not to Ms. Shin.
Unless you want to be hated by them for the rest of your life.
She's right. It's beyond bizarre.
That's such a bad nickname...
that you might be removed from the family...
even before the baby is born.
Is it that bad?
They're all hard to deal with.
Father, are you worried about something?
The thing is, I was very fond of the police officer,
and Ha Young got pregnant,
so I approved of them getting married. But...
But?
I gave it some thought...
and realized there were many things to worry about.
Ha Young will have two mothers-in-law...
who aren't easy to deal with...
and as many as three sisters-in-law.
I've been worried about that too.
And when the Haha Chicken couple opposed Ha Young,
they emphasized that she'd have two mothers-in-law.
I'm worried about the Haha Chicken couple too,
but his biological mother is even worse.
Maybe I shouldn't have said that to your mother.
I just hated that my parents were misunderstood,
and I wanted to date you without worrying about our parents.
We had to talk about it at least once anyway.
I didn't expect my mother to be that upset, though.
I'm worried if it might make our parents' relationship worse.
I think I shouldn't have talked about that issue.
This is a matter of trust, just as you said.
But they firmly refuse to hear each other out.
They already don't seem to care what the truth is.
Well... I'm not sure if we should leave them be.
This won't work.
I think I should go back there.
If it were not to be resolved,
it'd be better for them to be separated.
I agree. If it leads to a bigger fight,
it may be even harder to restore their relationship.
Then go home, Eun Sung.
I'll call you later.
Do you feel better?
Now that we let our children see the ugly side of us?
It wasn't my intention.
Your daughter made me so upset...
without knowing what had happened.
She knows what happened.
She must've said that to you because you gave her such a hard time.
When Eun Sung...
heard from you that we'd had an affair,
she didn't say anything to us...
and swallowed all the pain by herself.
She didn't say anything even to Sun Woo either.
She shouldered all the burden herself.
She shouldn't have dated Sun Woo in the first place.
I made it clear that I didn't like your daughter.
The person you have reached is unavailable.
Mother won't even answer her phone.
Is that why you hid the fact that Sun Woo wasn't your biological son?
- What? - He's not your biological son.
But you pretended he was your biological son...
to get him to break up with Eun Sung. Is that it?
Because that way, you could make them...
look like siblings,
which would be another good reason to oppose them.
What are you talking about?
Honey, come on.
Why are you so surprised?
Are you flustered because I knew about it...
when you meant to keep it a secret forever?
You even did such an underhanded thing...
to break them up.
But I knew about it. Did that prick your conscience?
Where did you hear such a ridiculous thing?
Stop talking nonsense.
What makes you think Sun Woo is not my biological son?
He's my son.
Do you think I'm stupid?
Did you really give birth to him?
Sun Woo is only one year younger than Eun Hyuk.
And when you divorced him,
Eun Hyuk was three years old.
So...
It makes no sense that you gave birth to Sun Woo.
Did you turn back time and then conceive Sun Woo...
while reliving your life after divorcing him?
If that's not the case,
did you secretly give birth to Sun Woo...
when you were still married to him?
You... Ko Chun Young!
(Haha Chicken)
This can't be true.
I'm not her biological son?
How...
How could I not be her son?
You...
You can't hide the truth forever!
You act as if you are some saint.
But why hide something so obvious?
Honey, stop it.
Why are you telling me to stop?
She keeps saying it's not true.
She's claiming to have given birth to a boy she never had.
I wonder what kind of evil intention you're trying to hide.
You...
Did you say that to my son?
You're finally going to admit that?
That Sun Woo isn't your biological son?
Did you say that to my son?
Answer me right now.
No, I didn't.
Why would I say that to him?
You're telling me the truth, right?
You didn't run your mouth, did you?
No.
I didn't tell anyone.
Not a word to anyone.
Sun Woo doesn't know.
Neither does Eun Sung.
We talked about it and decided not to bring it up.
I brought this up...
only for one reason.
Please stop being so stubborn.
And actually listen to what other people are telling you.
This world isn't yours alone.
You need to be considerate of other people too.
I'm really not...
her biological son?
My mother...
didn't give birth to me?
Did I make...
any mistakes to you last night?
When I first met you,
you were so beautiful.
When I was...
admitted to the hospital, you came with your dad.
Oh, my. You were just starting to walk then.
Then what she said last night...
Then how come...
I had no idea about this?
Did my parents...
keep this a secret for my sake?
Dad.
What a surprise to hear from you,
asking me to meet with you at this hour.
You even came all the way to my office.
Well,
I had a question.
A question?
What is it?
Well...
What is it?
This isn't like you.
Well,
is Mom...
not my biological mother?
What?
Did someone else...
give birth to me?
Gosh. What are you talking about?
Dad.
I found out everything.
Please tell me the truth.
Is Mom...
not...
my biological mother?
I did think that I would face this question one day.
But now that the day has come,
I am actually nervous.
All right.
I'll tell you the truth.
As you found out,
the mother you have now...
did not give birth to you.
Your biological mother...
passed away due to an illness...
not long after giving birth to you.
As for your mother now,
I remarried her when you had just turned...
two years old.
How did you two...
meet?
When we met,
it was before I had founded KS Foodville.
I was running a small shop in the market.
But one day,
I caused an accident due to a vehicle defect.
The victim of the car accident I caused...
was your mother.
Your mother...
had divorced Yoo Dong Gu, Eun Sung's father.
She didn't know that he had left for the Philippines.
That's when...
she met you for the first time in the hospital.
What's his name?
Sun Woo. Kang Sun Woo.
Sun Woo.
When I went to visit her in the hospital,
- I took you with me. - Oh, Kang Sun Woo.
Sun Woo.
I felt guilty...
toward your mom and felt as if we were in the same boat.
But...
for the first time,
I wanted more.
The beautiful smile she showed me when she looked at you...
kept lingering in my head.
Time had passed, and your mother was discharged.
She found out that...
Yoo Dong Gu left for the Philippines with the kids rather late.
She had been miserable every day.
- Jung Ae. - I ran into her again.
- Sun Woo. - Oh, my. Do you want to go to her?
Come here.
Goodness. Oh, my.
Sun Woo.
When I saw her crying profusely while holding you in her arms,
I decided to marry her.
"Yes."
"I'll raise Sun Woo with this woman."
"And I will help her find her children."
That's the promise I made to myself.
Sun Woo.
Your mother...
didn't give birth to you biologically.
But she gave you her heart...
and raised you as if you were her own.
To your mom,
you're every bit as much a son as Sun Ju is.
I don't care what people say. Sun Woo is my son.
I raised him with love...
and gave him my heart as his mom.
All right. Congratulations on becoming my son-in-law.
Thank you, Father.
Let me.
Please take good care of Ha Young.
You know that if you make her cry,
I won't let that slide. Right?
Yes, Father.
I will cherish her and love her with all my heart...
as her husband.
You guys make a great couple.
Your union was long overdue.
Right.
What a good-looking couple you are.
You guys are already photo shoot ready.
Right. Like the photo shoot couples take.
You know everything there is to know, don't you?
What's your plan regarding the marital house?
Well, we haven't gotten that far yet.
Ha Young and I didn't discuss that yet.
Dad. We just got a blessing from his parents.
Up until a few days ago, we thought marriage was out of the picture.
Right. But you know now that you can get married...
and have his parents' blessings.
You need to come up with a concrete plan now.
You have a baby on the way too.
You know, you're right about that.
I can't think of a reason to delay your wedding.
Right. That's true.
This is a sensitive topic for me to bring up.
But your family situation is quite unique. You know?
So I'm worried that...
Ha Young might have a hard time because of that.
Then again,
no mothers-in-law would be tough on their daughters-in-law now.
I'm sure you understand what I'm getting at.
Yes, Father.
Okay.
My dad made you feel uncomfortable, right?
Gosh. He shouldn't have said that.
Gosh, no.
It's natural for him to be worried as your father.
It's because my family background is complicated.
Don't feel too pressured.
Let's take our time to decide where we'll live.
I just want to enjoy spending time with you right now.
Honestly, I feel the same way.
If I'm with you,
I could even live in a cave.
Well... A cave doesn't sound ideal, but I see what you mean.
Great-auntie Ha Young.
- Oh, gosh. - Goodness. Oh, no.
- Dear me. Ga Ram, what is it? - Are you okay?
- What's up? - It hurts.
- Well... - Yes.
My dad told me to ask you if you wanted to have some tea.
But I think I caught you at a bad time.
Just continue doing what you were doing.
Okay. Right. We will.
Hey... Thank you, kiddo.
He's really quick at catching on to things.
He's very smart.
Come on, Eun Hyuk.
Then let's continue doing what we were doing.
Stop it.
Did you take your mother home safely?
Yes.
The elders seemed to have almost finished their conversation.
So I left alone.
Oh, I see.
Didn't their fight seem to have gotten more intense?
Fortunately, it seemed to be settling down.
I was worried.
I'm relieved now.
I know.
But why do you sound so downcast?
Did you not have dinner?
What? Oh, I'm going to eat now.
How about I treat you to a nice meal?
I can afford to do that for you now.
Thank you.
But today, I'll eat with my mother at home.
Oh, you're not at home now? Are you at the office?
Yes. I had something to take care of.
So I came back.
You said you were tired,
so you would go home to rest...
No. Never mind. Then I'll talk to you later.
Yes. See you tomorrow.
Okay. Bye.
Is something going on with him?
He didn't sound like he usually does.
(KS Foodville)
(CEO Kang Ki Seok)
Hey, Sun Woo.
Yes, Father.
Are you...
Are you okay?
You won't be so shocked because of it...
and become rebellious, right?
Of course not. I'm old enough to handle it.
But...
I have a favor to ask of you.
A favor?
Please don't tell Mother...
that I found out about it.
All right. Would that make you feel easy?
Yes.
I'm sure you and Mother had a reason...
not to tell me.
I want to respect your decision.
Okay. I understand.
I won't tell your mom.
But don't make it obvious.
Your mom is quick at catching on to things.
Yes, Father.
No. I didn't tell anyone.
Not a word to anyone.
Ko Chun Young...
won't tell Sun Woo...
when things don't go the way she wants, right?
Mother.
Yes. Hey.
You're back.
What?
Are you going to complain about how I argued...
with Eun Sung's parents?
And how I always try to break you two up?
Thank you.
What?
Thank you, Mother.
Something's off.
- Did Ko Chun Young tell him? - What?
You will do a good job.
You will be a good mother.
I should sort out the matter regarding Eun Hyuk's marital house.
Mom, are you planning to live with Eun Hyuk and Ms. Shin?
I'll tell you after we finish our first shoot smoothly.
I made a really good wish.
