(Episode 92)
I'm sorry. We're closed.
We're only open until 11 p.m...
Hey.
It's been a while, Min Guk.
Hye Yoon...
You still remember my face.
I was worried you might not recognize me...
right away. Then it would've been embarrassing.
Hye Yoon.
Can I sit down?
This is quite a surprise. You didn't call me ahead either.
I had my reasons for staying away all these years.
But I'm almost done sorting them out.
Does that mean...
I told you I'd be back...
before Ga Ram started school.
Ga Ram...
is doing well, right?
I miss him.
Are you really coming back to me?
To Ga Ram?
Why do you ask?
You can't believe it?
You'll let me see Ga Ram, right?
I'm Ga Ram's mother.
Can you tell your family that I'm back...
as soon as possible?
- You're home. - I'm back.
Dad, thank you for working hard today as usual.
Thank you, Ga Ram.
Ga Ram, it's getting late.
Let's brush your teeth and go to sleep.
I can do it alone now.
Okay.
Gosh.
Min Guk. Is something wrong?
You don't look so good.
Right.
You seem completely out of it.
What's wrong? Was there an awful customer at the cafe today?
Did you have a tough day? Is that it?
No.
It's not that.
What? Who's back? Hye Yoon?
Are you really telling us Ga Ram's mother is back?
So she came by the cafe just now?
To tell you she sorted out her complicated situation?
Yes.
What on earth? None of us saw this coming.
The news of her return isn't a bad thing.
We shouldn't be so shocked.
But it is a great surprise.
Where has she been all this time?
How come we couldn't reach her?
How come she hadn't called us even once?
I don't know. I didn't even have a chance to ask her that.
So what does she want?
Does she want to live with you and Ga Ram?
- Yes. - She must have come back...
because that's what she wants.
Why do you think she came back...
only now without settling down?
Where do you stand on all of this?
Will you take her back?
She's Ga Ram's mother, after all.
And she came back as she promised.
Why are you asking that to him?
He waited for Ga Ram's mom without seeing anyone else.
I'm not exactly happy about this for some reason.
But Min Guk, why do you look so troubled?
The one you desperately waited for finally showed up.
But you don't look so happy.
It's just that I find it hard to believe.
Of course, you do. You must be so confused.
One day, she suddenly showed up...
and told you to raise Ga Ram, saying he was your son.
Then she left, and you haven't heard from her for six long years.
And now she's back and says she wants to live with you.
Good grief. Anyone would be dumbfounded.
Min Guk, when will she come to see Ga Ram?
I told her to come tomorrow afternoon...
so that she could meet Ga Ram when he came back from kindergarten.
Since she's Ga Ram's mom, we can't stop her...
from seeing her child.
Goodness.
Dad, what is it?
What?
Nothing.
You have something to say to me.
By any chance,
don't you want to see your mom?
Mom? Why are you asking that suddenly?
No reason.
I was wondering if you were curious about your mom.
Well... I'm not sure.
I think I'm curious about her, but at the same time,
I'm not so sure if I am.
Ga Ram, your mom is back...
to see you.
To live with you.
Right. It was because of Yoo Dong Gu and Ko Chun Young.
Because those two people did something they shouldn't have done.
That's why I kept saying you couldn't be together.
Director Kang Sun Woo and I...
are not in a relationship.
Stop it, please!
I said...
I never wanted to see you again...
both in professional and personal capacities.
That was why Eun Sung...
suddenly acted cold toward me.
Eun Sung, I need to talk to you.
Let's meet up no matter what.
I'm not going to say I won't give up on you or such.
So meet me.
I have something to tell you for the last time.
For the last time...
Hi, Eun Sung.
I see you came before me.
Well... Yes.
The weather is very cold, right?
Indeed.
It has not been this cold in the past few days.
What is it that you want to say?
Eun Sung.
I finally found out...
why you suddenly left me.
About how our parents got a divorce 30 years ago...
I heard about it from my mother yesterday.
I see.
Without even knowing that,
I resented you.
I hoped you had waited just a little longer.
I hoped you had tried just a little more.
Why did you rush to the decision without even discussing it with me?
It wasn't like that.
I was very shocked when I heard about our parents.
And...
that did influence my decision to end things with you.
But that wasn't the only reason.
It was also because I understood how your mother felt...
when she had no choice but to tell me the story.
I was just...
unsure...
if I could keep trying and hold out longer.
Eun Sung.
This is...
where we should end things. That's all.
Us crossing paths with each other...
is no one's fault.
I'm sorry.
I really liked you so much.
I'm sorry too.
I promised I'd always stay by your side...
and that I'd be on your side.
I'm sorry I can't keep that promise.
Eun Sung.
Let's end it here.
Yes.
Eun Sung.
I loved you dearly.
Me too.
What is it that you guys want to tell us?
Well...
About the lady who's renting the room at our restaurant.
What about her?
Did she cause some kind of trouble?
No, that's not the case.
Actually, she's your blood-related aunt.
Our blood-related aunt?
You mean, our birth mother's younger sister?
The one who kept Dad and our birth mom...
from reaching each other for 30 years?
So our birth mom cut ties with her. You mean, her?
Yes.
But why is she staying at your restaurant? This is sudden.
We'll tell you the details later.
Anyway, what we want to tell you today is...
Your aunt wants to apologize to you two.
For what she did wrong 30 years ago.
For what? That she pocketed the alimony you gave her...
that she was supposed to give to our birth mom?
And that she didn't relay your message to our birth mom,
which was why we couldn't see our birth mom for 30 years?
It still weighs on her conscience.
She regrets her past wrongdoings.
She wants to apologize after all these years?
That's pointless.
I don't know why she came here.
But now that she lives in our neighborhood,
she must want to do that to lift the burden of guilt.
I mean...
I don't think you should take it that way.
I was angry at first, just like you.
But still, I think she owes you an apology.
Of course, it's your decision to make.
And I'm not directly involved in this matter.
You can't say you're not involved in it.
I mean, you raised us for 30 years.
So, what do you guys want to do?
Your aunt is waiting for you at the restaurant.
I...
am going to meet her.
Whatever she did wrong in the past,
now that she lives so close to us,
we can't act like she's a stranger.
We can't refuse her apology and treat her as our enemy either.
What about you, Eun A?
Me?
I...
If Eun Hyuk is going to meet her, I'll see her with him.
(Haha Chicken)
Eun A and Eun Hyuk.
I am...
your aunt.
I'm sorry for not showing up...
until now.
- I was going to apologize sooner... - If so,
why are you apologizing after all this time?
Eun A.
Why are you only doing this now?
Do you have any idea...
how many people you have hurt and the pain you have caused them?
You complicated so many things!
I'm really sorry.
I have nothing to say.
How could you do that to your own niece and nephew?
How could you keep us away...
from our biological mother for 30 years?
Did you ever feel guilty about what you did?
I'm sorry.
I tried many times to tell the truth.
Your excuses don't mean a thing right now.
It's not like we can bring back the years we lost...
or get rid of the painful memories we have.
Come on.
I understand you're angry.
But we're here today because she wants to apologize.
Instead of pointing out what she did wrong,
- we should try to understand... - I must make it clear...
what she did was wrong even if she wants to apologize.
I'm furious.
I'm sorry.
No matter how much you resent me,
I doubt it'll be enough to make you feel better.
It's up to you whether or not you want to forgive me.
But...
what I did was indeed wrong.
So it is only right that I apologize to you.
Even if you drive me away,
I want to tell you I'm sorry.
I don't plan on hating you after all these years.
But don't think for a second that we forgave you.
Thirty years isn't a short time for us to get over that quickly.
I know that.
This is all my fault.
It's my fault.
Gosh.
You're here early today.
If you're going to come here every day, quit your job.
Why don't you work here as a part-timer?
I'm angry because of your aunt.
Don't provoke me.
My aunt?
Yes. Your aunt who lives in the back room of our restaurant.
Did my aunt get caught?
When? How?
I knew it.
You knew that she was living in the back room, didn't you?
How come you didn't tell me? Why did you play clueless?
That's because I know you have a nasty temper.
What?
Why is she just my aunt?
You're my mother's daughter.
She's also your aunt.
Why talk about her like she's a stranger?
I just met her.
I met her for ten minutes just now.
Time doesn't matter.
The fact that she's your aunt is important.
Whatever.
Where's Min Guk?
I'm not sure. I just came to work.
Mr. Shin's father was running the cafe. But as soon as I came,
he left for an important family matter.
An important family matter?
Yes. It seemed like a very serious and important matter.
What is it?
Do you need to talk to me?
Well, Ga Ram.
I need to tell you something.
What is it?
Ga Ram.
Your mother came back.
My mother? What mother?
What do you mean?
She gave birth to you.
Didn't you want to see your mother?
Right.
You've never seen your mother before.
Ga Ram.
Really? Mom is really back?
She came to see you...
and to live with you.
Yes. She came back because she missed you.
Where has she been all these years?
How come she didn't come to see me before?
Ga Ram. That's...
Ga Ram. Let's meet your mother first.
We can take our time to ask her all the questions.
So where is she right now?
At the cafe.
Should I ask her to come here?
What is it? Do you not want to see your mother?
It's not that.
(Good Day for Coffee)
What?
Ga Ram said he didn't want to see me?
It's not that he doesn't want to see you.
He needs a day to think about it.
What does that mean?
Why? I'm his mom.
What do you mean?
Ga Ram never had the idea of having a mother.
He must be flustered to hear that a mom he never thought he had...
showed up out of the blue.
I really didn't expect him to react like this.
I imagined that he would come to me and cry in my arms.
That's what you thought.
Ga Ram has his own thoughts.
He dealt with not having a mother for six years.
But still.
Okay.
I'll have a cup of coffee and leave. Let's meet again tomorrow.
(Good Day for Coffee)
By the way, I wonder what this important family matter is.
How come Min Guk didn't even come to the cafe?
Right. Is he not coming to work at all?
("The Last Leaf")
What? This is a picture of a woman.
Is she...
What is it? Whose picture is it?
I was wondering if this woman was Jung Hye Yoon.
That's the book Mr. Shin always keeps it by his side.
Let me see.
What? She's much prettier than I thought.
What? She's not pretty.
You're prettier than her.
Right. She's not as pretty as you either.
That's a common face you see on the street.
By the way, are you sure this woman is Jung Hye Yoon?
I'm not sure. I highly suspect that she is.
But there's no way of checking if she is.
Hello.
A cup of coffee, please.
Well, could you pay first?
A cup of Americano is five dollars.
Just give me the coffee first.
At our cafe, you must pay first.
Please come to the counter and pay...
Wait.
Eun A.
- What is it? - Gosh.
The woman in the picture.
What? The picture?
Jung Hye Yoon?
Do you know me?
Hey.
That's my picture.
That looks like a picture I gave to Min Guk.
Then are you really Jung Hye Yoon?
Then you're Ga Ram's mom?
Yes. I'm Ga Ram's mother. I'm Jung Hye Yoon.
Who are you guys?
No way. I can't believe this.
How could she show up here?
Right? Now of all times at that.
Does Mr. Shin know that she's back?
When did Ga Ram's mother come back?
Nothing happened last night.
Not until I got off work.
She came after you left.
Right before the closing time.
I was startled too.
Why did she show up out of the blue?
Where has she been all these years?
She came to see Ga Ram. She's his mother.
As for where she's been all these years...
That's none of your business.
So are you going to marry her?
Will you live with her?
That's none of your business, Sun Ju.
How come it's none of my business?
I told you I had feelings for you.
I at least have the right to ask you that.
The same thing goes for Eun A.
- Sun Ju. - She's working at the TV station.
But I bet she wants to ask you...
the same questions and say the same things.
She has feelings for you too.
Can you stop telling me about your feelings for me?
I get that you're honest...
and wear your heart on your sleeve.
But Hye Yoon is back now.
I don't care who's next to you.
But my heart is like a dandelion.
I will continue to have feelings for you and stay committed to you.
We broke up.
Eun Sung and I agreed not to see each other again.
Are you sure?
Yes.
I met with her today...
and settled it.
Good job. I'm really happy that you did.
I agree.
It's unfortunate that you guys got hurt in the middle.
But that will be a kind thing to do to each other.
If you continue to date someone you can't have a future with,
it will only hurt both of you.
Right. I'm going to start over now.
So you don't have to worry about me.
I won't trouble you about this again.
Okay. We'll believe in you.
You're our son, after all.
Let bygones be bygones.
We can just look forward to our new relationships in the future.
Then I'll go upstairs.
I have a meeting regarding the cast who dropped out of the movie.
Okay.
What a surprise.
He's not pushing back. He came to his senses.
I told you, didn't I?
It didn't seem like he was going to fight back.
He must have given it some thought too.
He probably realized it wasn't something he could force.
I'm not sure if I have any rights to say this,
but I feel so sorry for the two of them.
If only the media hadn't reported...
the false news about them...
I know.
Although that must not have been the only reason they broke up.
I know this because I had my heart broken recently.
I learned that it was very painful.
What?
You had your heart broken recently?
Yes. I was rejected by the man I liked.
At the time, I didn't even realize that I liked him, though.
I won't ever see you again.
Detective Yoo.
My heart ached so much then.
Even though I managed to pretend to be okay.
I'm sorry, Ha Young.
At the time, I...
I'm the one who should say sorry.
I broke your heart.
And I...
came back to you after all that happened.
You see, I tell myself every day these days...
that it's time for me to give you back the love you gave me.
And that from now on,
I'll be the one who protects you.
Just as you said,
I'll be a better person...
and a more warm-hearted person to do so.
Things on the street are spinning.
I think I see double of you.
Oh, me too. I see double of you too.
All right. Then...
Guess which one is real.
Got it.
- This one. - This one.
This one.
- Here you are. My gosh! - Oh, no.
Ha Young.
Do you know that you look really pretty now?
What?
I'm sorry.
Let's get going.
Ha Young.
- Stay quiet! - Yes, ma'am.
My gosh. What happened?
Gosh, I'm thirsty.
Oh, my.
- Oh, my. Ha Young. - Goodness.
What have we done?
Gosh, my head hurts.
I remember...
that we kissed last night,
but I remember nothing after that.
I think...
we did it.
We did it?
(Unpredictable Family)
Did Ha Young not come home last night?
It's true that we spent the night together...
Don't you ever talk about it in front of others.
To be honest, I'm interested in Sun Woo.
I'm going to play Cupid for Ji Yeon and Sun Woo.
She has a big advantage that you two don't,
which is her child.
Ga Ram, look at Mommy.
Why didn't you come sooner?
