(Episode 123)
We should go now.
I need to go home early today.
My great-auntie is coming back today from her honeymoon.
Sure. Let's go.
Let's go.
Hello.
- Where are you? - Why are you asking me that?
Why do you want to know?
Jung Hye Yoon.
If you keep this up, I won't let it slide.
I might just go ahead and expose the truth to everyone.
What on earth are you talking about?
You must know what I mean better than anyone.
That there's a side of the story Shin Min Guk deserves to hear.
Shut your mouth.
What? Are you getting nervous?
Is fear overwhelming you?
Is that a tremble of fear I hear in your voice?
Jung Do Chul, you...
Don't do anything.
Don't mess with Ga Ram. The same goes for Min Guk.
Gosh, how touching.
I can't help but tear up at your desperation.
Please, Do Chul.
Let's not hurt Min Guk and Ga Ram for the second time.
Dad.
Hey. You're here, Ga Ram.
Hello, Sun Ju.
Hello. I'm glad you're here.
I actually wanted to ask you if you were doing well at school.
There are some challenges,
but overall, I'm happy.
Gosh. You were already mature before you started school.
But now that you started school, you really became an adult.
Gosh, Sun Ju.
To be a real adult, I must be over 20 years old.
Right. You're the smartest kid.
I rarely acknowledge other people,
but I will definitely acknowledge you.
You will?
(Your genes can predict your health in the future.)
What?
A DNA testing lab?
Why am I...
What's that?
Nothing.
I think they sent the message to the wrong person.
I see. Is that so?
Ga Ram. Did you make a girlfriend?
Don't worry about me.
You should make a boyfriend.
What? You...
- Hey. - Mom. Dad.
- Come inside. - Hello.
- Gosh. - Goodness.
Thank you for coming.
Driving here must have been exhausting.
No, I'm fine.
I talked to Eun Sung while driving.
So it wasn't tiring at all.
Gosh, yes. You're such a reliable son-in-law.
Given your age, a long drive shouldn't tire you out.
That's right. Having good stamina will boost our national power.
You guys can talk about that later.
Why don't we sit down first?
Gosh. Where are my manners?
I made my son-in-law stand up the whole time.
Everyone, come. Let's sit down.
Yes, Mother.
Sit down.
How was your honeymoon? Was it nice?
It was fantastic. No better word can describe it.
It was the right call to travel Korea.
Because we planned the itinerary when we traveled,
it never got boring...
or too exhausting.
I see.
There was also a new kind of joy in exploring an area...
that wasn't so touristy.
More importantly, what I liked the most...
was that I was with you.
Oh, my. That was a given.
What are you doing? Our parents are here.
I get that you're madly in love.
But this is too much.
What? It's nice to see them so in love.
Eun A. You must be jealous.
Yes. If you're jealous, you should up your game.
Don't fall behind your younger sister.
I'm not jealous. What do you mean?
I was just saying that they should be more careful.
Eun Sung has to live with his family, after all.
Dad. Jin Sil. We're here.
Welcome to my house. My daughter. My son-in-law.
Welcome back.
It's only been a week.
But you guys look different.
Thanks to you, we had a great time on our honeymoon.
By the way, where are Min Guk and Ga Ram?
They are on their way here.
Ga Ram must have stopped by the cafe.
I see.
They're here.
Great-auntie.
Hey, Ga Ram.
Great-auntie. Did you have fun on your trip?
Yes. I had so much fun.
I also brought a present for you, Ga Ram.
Hello.
What?
Sun Ju.
Eun Hyuk. Ha Young.
What are you doing here?
What kind of question is that?
I heard you were coming back from your honeymoon.
I couldn't wait to see you. So I came here as a surprise.
You wanted to see me?
So you came here?
I didn't know we were that close.
You must be closer to Director Kang than Eun Hyuk.
If you missed anyone,
wouldn't you have missed Eun Sung the most?
Min Guk.
If you were going to come, you should've come alone.
Why did you bring an unwelcome...
Dad told her not to come several times.
But despite what he said, Sun Ju kept following us home.
Right.
I kept telling her she couldn't come.
I begged and asked her not to come.
Why, Ms. In-law?
Are you uncomfortable with having me around?
"Ms. In-law?"
You are my in-law.
I'm Eun Hyuk's sister.
You are my sister-in-law's sister-in-law.
We're all sister-in-laws.
Gosh. But still. Addressing me like that...
Yes. Sun Ju. Since you came here,
stay for dinner, and enjoy the food.
We were about to have dinner.
Really? Thank you.
I heard that your culinary skills were amazing.
Gosh.
Oh, my.
This is so tasty.
You're just as good a cook as Jang Geum.
Thank you.
But why don't you slow down?
You'll get indigestion if you eat that fast.
I'm young. I won't get indigestion from this.
Besides, if I get indigestion, I can buy some medicine.
- Kang Sun Ju. - Yes?
Sun Ju.
Eat a lot.
Thank you.
By the way, how many children...
do you guys plan to have?
I'm not sure. Why do you ask?
I was just curious.
I'm wondering how many nieces and nephews I would get to have.
Ha Young and I didn't get a chance to have that discussion yet.
I would be happy with just Dodam.
What are you talking about?
Dodam will be lonely alone.
What? Then how many kids do you want to have?
I never gave any thought to the number of children.
But we should have at least two children. Don't you agree?
Our population is going down.
Our country's birth rate is going down too.
Well, yes. You do have a point.
But is it necessary for us to expand our family?
You can call it however you want. But that's just my opinion.
We must have more than one child.
By the way,
it seems the roles have switched.
I thought Great-uncle Eun Hyuk would want a lot of children.
And I thought you would only want one.
Right.
Given how passionate Ha Young is about her job,
I thought she'd say one child would be enough.
Work and raising children are two different things.
I have no intention of giving up on having enough children for work.
You're more family-oriented than I thought you were.
You're completely different from your image.
Oh, okay.
My dear son-in-law, how's the food? Does it suit your palate?
Yes, Mother. Everything is tasty.
It's amazing that every dish blows me away.
That's great. Eat a lot.
Eun Sung, you eat a lot too. And make sure to chew well.
Oh, here's stir-fried squid that you like.
Thank you, Mom.
Oh, dear. It must've been a lot of work to make all this.
Your mom cooked from this morning...
until you guys came.
I helped her too even though I wasn't very helpful.
Thank you, Father.
I'll do the dish after dinner.
That's okay. I'll do the dish.
I see you're determined to win brownie points with Mom and Dad.
Come on. How did she know?
Whether or not that's true, he seems just adorable to me.
There's no son-in-law in the world who would volunteer...
to do the dishes on his first visit to his in-laws after his wedding.
Absolutely. My point exactly.
We're lucky to have him as our son-in-law.
To be honest, even when you first came to our restaurant,
I liked you.
Even though Eun Sung said you were a customer,
you felt familiar for some reason,
and I became fond of you right away.
I remember you telling me to give Sun Woo extra popcorn.
As much popcorn as he wanted.
Looking back now,
all that was how you expressed your love for me.
Yes. I think you're right.
Wait. We don't have water on the table.
Where's my mind at? I filled cups with water and forgot.
Oh, my. Honey.
Mom, what's wrong?
Oh, it's... Never mind.
I felt dizzy for a moment.
Are you all right? Are you very dizzy?
I'm fine now.
Maybe it was because I got up suddenly. I may have...
hypotension.
There.
Mom must've overworked herself.
On top of preparing for Eun Hyuk's and my wedding,
she made all this food.
It's normal for people to ache from fatigue after a big event.
Let's get Mother some herbal medicine.
Shall we?
Honey, are you all right?
Yes.
I felt a little dizzy.
But I'm perfectly fine now.
Should we close the shop for a few days so you can rest?
Just as the kids said,
you seem to have overworked yourself to prepare for and host the wedding.
Goodness, you. We can't close our shop.
How are we supposed to earn money?
We should be bold enough to give up on money...
You be bold. I'll stay petty...
when it comes to money matters.
You should take bold actions...
for your own sake once in a while...
I already said that was unnecessary.
You're trying to take a few days off,
using my condition as an excuse. You think I don't know that?
Honey, can you read minds?
Or did you learn to read minds from Gung Ye or something?
How did you figure out exactly what I was thinking?
What's taking them so long?
Could Dad be getting scolded by Mom for something he did?
We were all in a good mood just until now.
I doubt that's what's going on.
You see...
You just don't know our family dynamics.
Especially the fickle hierarchy between my mom and dad.
Nonsense. It's not fickle at all.
Mom always wins, and she has the upper hand over Dad.
Oh, I see.
That's true.
But there may be an exception from time to time.
What were you guys talking about? What was so interesting?
Well, I wouldn't say it's interesting.
We were talking about the sweet love that you two shared.
"Sweet love?"
We share that?
What makes you think so?
Anyway, when will you start shooting the movie again?
The first shoot is scheduled for next week.
- I see. - Oh, I see.
- Next week? - Right.
Eun Sung, you must be excited.
It really is the new beginning of everything.
Both my marriage...
and my first step as an actress.
You were dumbfounded earlier because of Sun Ju, right?
A little bit, to be honest.
But that's also what's interesting about her.
I must say, she has many different charms...
even though she's my sister.
The reason she came here alone was nonsense.
She said she had to be here...
because Eun A was at your parents' house.
It seems that Sun Ju has her own logical process.
My guess is that she thought it would be fair...
if there was a sister-in-law at each of the houses.
But Eun A is not Eun Sung's sister-in-law.
She's Eun Sung's sister.
But from Sun Woo's perspective,
Eun A is also his sister.
And that makes her Eun Sung's sister-in-law.
Right.
Anyway, Sun Ju has her own unique color...
that no one can copy.
That makes her cute,
but at the same time, it makes her scary.
That's why I'm worried about what might happen.
I wonder what kind of sister-in-law she'll be.
I understand.
By the way, don't we look like watermelon?
I want to eat some watermelons.
Shall I go get it for you?
Tomorrow is the day that Eun Sung moves in.
Will it be fun to live with her?
How will it be?
Should I intimidate her as her sister-in-law?
Or should I just keep treating her as my friend?
Hey, what are you mumbling about?
You look like you're chanting a spell.
Well...
You know that Sun Woo's wife is my friend, right?
I was thinking about how I should redefine my relationship with her.
Hey, why would you redefine your relationship with her?
It'll be hard enough for her to live here because of your mom.
You should be warm to her.
No. Sun Woo's love alone will be enough to keep her warm.
She'll feel even hot, not just warm.
Still, how you treat her matters as much as how Sun Woo does.
Giving her a cold shoulder suddenly now that she's your sister-in-law...
would be mean.
Is that so? Then should I stay friends with her?
Yes.
As a matter of fact, I prepared something for Eun Sung.
Really? What is it?
A flower basket.
I'm going to use these flowers that I've grown...
- to make a flower basket for her. - That's sweet.
As a welcoming gesture.
That's a great idea.
I know. I'd rather not do something than do it halfheartedly.
Once I decide to do something, I do it properly.
Show me.
They grew well.
They're so pretty. Here.
Eun Sung, what are you doing up?
You're up.
I wonder...
what's keeping you up...
that you're still out here.
Well... Take a guess.
Well...
The thought of leaving your parents...
whom you lived with for 30 years...
makes you feel sad and uneasy, perhaps.
The fact that you'll live separately from Eun A and Eun Hyuk...
must sadden you as well.
That too.
I'm going to live with your family, starting tomorrow, you know.
I'm a little worried about whether I can be a good wife to you...
and a good daughter-in-law to your parents.
Eun Sung.
You no longer...
have to worry about stuff like this all by yourself.
I'll help you adjust to your new life.
Also,
I, too, have to make an effort as your husband.
You're not the only one who should make an effort.
Do you think I can be loved by your mother?
Even though I'm still lacking in some ways.
Even though I'm not good enough by her standards yet.
It will happen eventually.
But don't feel pressured too much.
We decided to get married to be happy together.
So let's not worry too much about things outside of ourselves.
I mean, of course, I fully understand how you feel,
and I'm grateful to you.
Still, I want to be loved.
It may be that I'm being greedy,
but I want to be acknowledged by Mother.
Goodness.
They said they were almost here.
Why haven't they arrived yet?
My gosh. Are you waiting for Sun Woo and Eun Sung? Is that it?
Goodness, you. They'll be here when it's time.
It's as if you were going to meet your lover after 100 years.
- My gosh. - It's taking them longer...
than I thought. That's all.
Gosh. My lover, my foot.
Oh, is that so?
Then why have you been looking so nervous since last night?
It seemed that you couldn't even sleep soundly.
That's because a person who's not a member of our family...
is moving in with us today.
It's normal for me to be worried.
Eun Sung is now a member of our family.
Don't say that in front of Sun Woo.
He'll be upset.
Why would I say things like this in front of him?
- Sun Woo and Eun Sung must be here. - What?
Oh, my. They're here.
- They're here. - Gosh.
Yes, she was indeed waiting for her lover.
- Gosh. - Goodness. Mom. Dad.
- Hey. - We're here.
Welcome home.
How was your honeymoon? Was it good?
Yes. Thanks to your help,
we had a nice time on our honeymoon.
I see. Driving back must have been tiring.
Both of you must be tired.
Yes, Mother. Thank you for welcoming me.
Eun Sung.
- Hello. - Hey, Sun Ju.
I mean...
My dear sister-in-law. Hello.
"My dear sister-in-law?" Gosh, that's making me cringe.
I knew it. I can't treat you like a sister-in-law.
I guess we are indeed friends.
Sun Ju. I told you not to act silly.
Starting now, Eun Sung...
Anyway, she's not your friend.
Gosh. She's my friend. How can I not treat her like one?
Even if she became my sister-in-law, we're still friends.
Okay. That's enough for today.
Eun Sung. This is my aunt.
Gosh. Hello. I heard so much about you.
Yes. I heard a lot about you too.
I hope we can get along well.
Okay.
All right. The brief introduction is turning into a long conversation.
Let's sit on the sofa and talk more comfortably.
Okay.
Give them to me.
All right.
I'm sure you're still tired from traveling.
So I'll keep it short.
Eun Sung.
Welcome to our family.
Thank you, Father.
Sure. From now on, if there are any problems,
don't keep them to yourself.
Talk to Sun Woo...
or other people in our family.
Okay. I'll do my best to become a true member...
of this family.
- Sure. - Okay.
We had gone through a series of uncomfortable incidents.
But let's try to become a family from now on...
by understanding and comforting one another.
Okay, Mother.
Your family and my family will be different from A to Z.
Let's be careful around each other,
so we don't make each other uncomfortable.
We'll all have to try our best.
Okay. I may be lacking in many ways.
So please teach me a lot.
Okay. Sure.
Eun Sung will be great.
Please help her, Mother.
Okay. I'll make an effort too.
Gosh. Our room is newly decorated.
Mom must have decorated it...
when we were away on our honeymoon.
This is beautiful.
I knew it. Mother has such a sophisticated taste.
I'm glad that you seem to like it.
Let's have a happy marriage...
in this room.
Okay. I'll try my best.
You should do the same.
Standing here like this...
makes me feel that we're really married now.
What if someone were to walk into our room?
No one is going to walk in here.
It's our room.
Sun Woo. Goodness. Oh, my gosh.
Hey! You...
You need to knock before entering the newlyweds' room.
Sorry.
I'm not used to the fact that you're married now.
What are you still doing here? Leave already.
- Okay. I'll leave. - Okay?
It doesn't matter why I came in. It's not a good time.
Leave already. Move faster!
That little brat. She's clueless.
She couldn't have come in at a worse time.
Gosh. Is that the sparkle of the newlyweds I only heard about?
Oh, my. Eun Sung is more passionate than I thought.
I get that she's in love.
But it's her first day at her in-law's house.
Gosh.
Eun Sung must have said hello to her parents-in-law, right?
Of course. It's been a long time since they left.
Do you think her mother-in-law will be nice to Eun Sung?
She's not going to scold Eun Sung on Day One, right?
Gosh. She won't want to look so unreasonable.
She can't scold Eun Sung without a good reason.
Eun Sung will have to make a huge mistake for her to do that.
Besides, Sun Woo is with her.
He will protect her from his mother too.
But still. For some reason, I'm getting worried about her.
It feels as if...
I sent my daughter to the enemy's camp all alone.
Gosh. If you're that worried about her,
why don't you call her?
Yes, Dad.
I said hello to my parents-in-law.
I'm resting in my room now.
What did your mother-in-law say?
Did she say she wanted to get along with you?
Yes. She said we should try to understand...
one another and become a family.
Yes, Eun Sung.
When you try to adjust to a new environment,
you're bound to face difficulties.
But you and Sun Woo must help each other...
to be happy together.
If something happens, call me.
Okay, Dad. Don't worry.
We'll only show you how happy we are and how much we love each other.
Okay.
I believe in you, Eun Sung.
Yes.
What?
It's the number from the payphone yesterday.
Hello.
Hello?
Who on earth are you?
Didn't you call me yesterday too?
If you need to talk to me, talk.
How come you're not saying a thing when you were the one who called me?
You must have had a reason...
I need to tell him first.
But I can't muster up my courage.
What is this?
This person didn't write anything.
I'm getting a similar vibe.
Hello.
Hello?
This is Shin Min Guk.
Did you...
send me a message yesterday?
Yes. I sent you the message.
There's important information I had to let you know.
By the way, it took too long for you to call me.
By the way, who is this?
What? No way. Did you already forget my voice?
Jung Do Chul?
Yes, it's me.
Jung Do Chul.
It's been a while, Min Guk.
I should ask him to give me a bit more time.
It's better that he hears it from me...
than from Jung Do Chul.
I need a bit more time...
to prepare myself.
Gosh. She called me right on time.
It's Hye Yoon.
What?
Hey, it's me.
Where are you? Let's talk.
Sure.
I'm at a cafe. Why don't you come here?
Which cafe?
Well,
I'm at Good Day for Coffee.
I'm at the cafe Ga Ram's dad runs.
What? You're where?
Jung Do Chul!
Then hurry up, and get here.
Min Guk is waiting for you.
Jung Do Chul!
What on earth are you doing right now?
You were gone for a while. Why did you suddenly come back?
Why did you call her here?
I told you.
There was important information I had to tell you.
Important information?
From you?
Why? You're not trying to lie to me, so you can scam me again?
I know that...
you're not Hye Yoon's relative.
Exactly.
I have nothing to hide from you now.
I had a reason to send that message to you from the beginning.
The DNA testing lab.
That holds the answer.
What are you talking about?
Ga Ram.
Are you sure he's your son?
Are you sure he's your biological son?
I came here to tell you that.
The truth from six years ago.
The truth Jung Hye Yoon...
covered up.
I hear that other daughters-in-law do everything...
for their mothers-in-law from morning until night...
when they live together.
I had no idea. I'm sorry, Mother.
You tell me.
Am I nitpicking now?
What nonsense are you talking about?
What do you think you're doing?
Stop being a fool.
You can talk about the rest with Jung Hye Yoon.
Min Guk.
