My goodness.
There really must be a special connection between us.
Ok Boon.
Where do I need to go to find you?
My kids are useless.
They don't even care that their father is single.
My goodness.
(Episode 4)
Dad.
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Well, Dad.
It's about marriage.
- Marriage? - Yes.
It's been a long time since Mom passed away.
And I think it's time we welcome a woman into the family.
I can't agree with you more.
You're right. A man needs a woman.
That's just the way of the world.
But I'm surprised to hear you sound so mature.
So the thing is,
there's a woman I'd like you to meet.
A woman you'd like me to meet?
I actually have...
someone specific in mind.
No, you should meet this woman first.
Really?
Is she a widow? Or is she divorced?
She's never been married.
She's never been married?
- How old is she? - She's 28.
What? Really?
My gosh, come on.
I should have a conscience. She's way too young.
What? I thought you'd say the opposite.
I know men tend to like younger women.
But I'm a man with a conscience.
I can't date a woman who's 28.
What?
Okay, I understand. Thank you for the gesture.
But it's okay. My gosh, you're really something.
- Dad, I think you're mistaken. - Gosh, just forget it.
Jin Sang, people will badmouth me if they hear about this.
No, that's not it!
I was talking about me, not you.
There's a woman I want to marry.
You?
Why would you talk to me about your marriage?
- You little punk. - What?
Hey, Mom.
This is very delicious.
Really?
Well, you see...
This is delicious too.
Do you have something to tell me?
What's wrong with you? You keep calling me.
Hae Jin, is that a ring?
Are you dating someone?
My goodness, he's right.
What is this? Where did you get it?
Well, to be honest,
there's someone I want to marry.
- Hae Jin. - Are you serious?
What does he do? What kind of person is he?
Well, he's...
Why don't you just meet him?
His family wants to meet up and talk about marriage.
"Meet up and talk about marriage"?
How long have you guys been dating?
I'll tell you the details when we meet them that day.
My goodness, you are unbelievably sly.
I can't believe you kept it a secret until now.
What kind of person is he? What does he do for a living?
You're making me feel impatient. Will you please tell me?
Well, he's just...
Why don't you just meet him yourself?
You kept rushing us, so we came 30 minutes early.
But why are they still not here?
Are you sure they're coming?
Is there really a woman who wants to marry you?
Yes, of course.
The fact that she actually decided to marry you...
is beyond belief to me.
No sane woman would do such a thing.
Be quiet.
I need to go to the bathroom.
My bladder will burst if I wait any longer.
My gosh, we're late because we waited for Cheol Jin.
Why did his professor suddenly want to see him today?
- Mom. - Yes?
Here's a sedative pill.
Why would I need a sedative pill?
You're the one who should have it.
But still...
I'm just worried you might faint.
My goodness, Hae Jin.
I really can't wait to see him...
considering that you still haven't told me anything.
I'm fine as long as he isn't someone like Jin Sang.
There's no need to be nervous.
I need to go to the bathroom.
We're already late, so you should go inside first.
- Okay, don't take too long. - Okay.
My goodness.
Ok Boon.
They say, "You run into your enemy at the worst place and time."
But when it's someone special, it's a different kind of surprise.
I can't believe I'm seeing you here.
What are you doing here?
I'm here to meet my son's future in-laws. What about you?
I'm here to meet my daughter's future in-laws as well.
Really?
We're both meeting our future in-laws on the same day?
We really do have a special connection.
The fact that we keep running into each other like this...
shows that there's a strong connection between us.
So what?
We met in 40 years after we both lost our spouses.
Why do you think the skies made that happen?
Who knows? Only the skies will know.
Ok Boon, wait. Ok Boon.
My goodness.
Hello, I'm Kang Hae Jin.
You can sit down.
So...
I hear you want to marry Jin Sang.
Yes.
My goodness, you're unbelievable.
Why would you want to marry a guy like him?
- Dad. - What?
Anyway, I'm all for the marriage,
and I'm very grateful that you're willing to marry a guy like him.
But I'm just concerned about your future...
I just hope that you'll be happy.
Mom.
It's nice to meet you.
Hello, it's nice to meet you too.
Hey, you should also get up and greet her for the first time.
It's not my first time seeing her.
Ok Boon, is this your daughter?
My goodness.
Baek Su, is he your son?
Mother, please take a seat.
Let me get this straight.
The guy you want to marry is Jin Sang?
Mom, you should sit down first. Let's sit down and talk.
No, there's no need for me to sit down.
Why would you...
marry a guy like him?
- Mom. - Why in the world...
would you marry a jobless guy like him?
You seem to be pointing at me. I'm not the one she's marrying.
Be quiet!
My blood pressure just went up, so keep your mouth shut.
Mother, please sit down first.
There's no need for me to sit down.
I will never approve of this marriage!
Mom! Mom!
I'm sorry.
- My gosh, Mother... - Hey, you punk.
Don't follow her outside.
I'm also against this marriage.
I won't ever give you my approval!
Dad, come on!
My goodness.
- Mom. - Be quiet!
I'm just going to forget about what happened today.
So don't even mention it again.
Mom.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Why would you marry a jobless punk like him?
You're not in your right mind.
How could you even think of marrying that kind of guy?
Tomorrow, I'll find you a guy who's way better than him.
So stop talking nonsense.
Mom, I want to marry him.
I don't think...
I'll ever be able to meet a guy who's good to me as Jin Sang.
What are you talking about? Why would you think that?
You're more than capable of finding a guy better than him.
My gosh, this is all my fault.
I should've made sure...
you got enough love and attention even after your dad passed away.
But I was too busy making a living, so I couldn't.
You're only being like this because you crave love and attention.
Otherwise, there's no way you'd fall for a guy like him.
Mom, that's not why.
I can't let you marry a guy like him. Never.
If you marry Jin Sang,
I'll make sure we never get to see another day.
What's this all about?
The guy you want to marry is Jin Sang?
My goodness gracious.
Cheol Jin, listen to me.
My goodness gracious.
I'm going to teach that jerk a lesson.
Cheol Jin, don't...
Stay still.
You're not going anywhere.
Mom, please.
What?
How dare you covet my sister?
I'm not coveting her. I'm in love. We're both in love with each other.
Jin Sang!
We already slept together.
That's a two-way thing.
What did you just say?
You know what? Why don't you just hit me?
If that will help you blow off some steam...
Fine, go ahead and hit me.
Hit me until you're no longer angry.
Cheol Jin!
I think you've hit me enough.
Stop dating her.
I won't ever let you marry my sister.
Then just kill me.
I can't live without Hae Jin anyway.
So just kill me right now.
Get up and eat.
You're acting like your love is something incredibly special.
Get up.
Are you going to starve to death in front of your mother?
I just don't feel very good. I'll eat later.
Don't lie to me.
If you don't eat, I won't eat either.
What's with the dry heaving? You haven't eaten anything all day.
No way.
Did you sleep with him?
- Did you? - Mom.
My goodness, I can't believe this.
What are you going to do now?
I never thought my own daughter...
would get pregnant before marriage.
My goodness, what are you going to do now?
What are you going to do now?
- Mom. - My goodness, you brat.
- Mom. - My goodness gracious.
Welcome.
Hey.
Why did you want to see me?
About the kids' marriage...
My goodness, don't worry.
I won't ever approve of their marriage.
Let's just approve.
What?
Let them have the wedding since they're so madly in love.
My gosh, why can't you be more persistent?
They'll surely overcome this.
They have a long life ahead of them.
My daughter's pregnant with your grandchild.
What? What did you say?
There's nothing we can do now that she's pregnant.
It's also useless to get angry over it.
You'd better be good to my daughter.
If you're mean to her, I won't stand still.
That's all I have to say.
My goodness.
Ok Boon.
Were we destined...
to become in-laws?
My gosh.
Hae Jin! Hae Jin!
Hae Jin, are you serious? Really?
Yes, my mom gave us her approval.
My gosh, he startled me.
Hello?
What?
I won the contest?
That's impossible.
Are you serious?
My script really won the contest?
Thank you. Thank you!
What was that?
My gosh, he startled me.
Maybe something good happened to him as well.
My gosh.
- Hae Jin, follow me. - Okay.
Follow me for a second.
Hae Jin.
I promise I'll be really good to you once we get married.
You chose me even when I have nothing.
I'll forever be grateful for that and make sure you never regret it.
My eyes will only see you,
my heart will only beat for you,
and I promise I'll never make you cry.
Do you promise?
I love you, Hae Jin.
"So they got married..."
"and lived happily ever after."
(7 years later)
The end.
That's a lie.
What do you mean?
They didn't live happily ever after. That's a lie.
Cinderella became...
a typical middle-aged woman after she got married.
And the prince rarely comes home.
Mom, Aunt's weird.
Your aunt?
It's because she got double eyelid surgery.
No, that's not what I'm talking about.
She told me Cinderella didn't live happily ever after with the prince.
Jin Bong, stop joking around.
It wasn't a joke.
Hae Jin, when is Jin Sang planning to arrive?
- Should I call him? - Yes, you should.
What's with the feast?
Jin Sang's coming home in three months.
I should feed him well while he's here.
Look at you.
Why don't you ever do the same for me?
You've never cooked seven side dishes for me.
But you cooked up a feast for your husband. My gosh.
Jin Sang, where are you? Are you almost here?
I see.
Okay, bye.
Isn't Dad coming home?
He apparently needs to attend his professor's seminar.
Is he choosing not to come home?
Or could he really not make it?
Listen carefully.
Let me tell you the reality.
Cinderella found herself back in the kitchen once she got married.
Actually, things were even worse.
Her golden days were long gone,
and she was just a middle-aged woman now.
He hasn't come home in months.
The prince felt frustrated with Cinderella.
And he didn't want to come home.
Jin Sang, let's go. We need to go to the seminar.
Oh, okay.
(Civil Law, Administrative Law)
(Lectures on Administrative Law)
He started to feel a huge gap of interest between them...
that seemed very hard to overcome.
So what happened to them?
- Do you want to know? - Yes.
Jin Sang.
Why did you marry me if you were going to be like this?
My gosh, why did I get married?
I can't say.
Their future depends on how they choose to deal with their problem.
Father, would you like a taste?
No, it's okay. It always tastes the same.
You sometimes seem to think you're a really good cook.
Where's your aunt?
She's busy doing what she always does every morning.
Tell her to come outside and eat.
My gosh, should I try taking it off?
What if it turns out to be a mess?
Aunt, Mom wants you to eat.
How do you think my nose turned out?
How would I know? It's covered in bandages.
But try and take a close look. Do you think it'll look pretty?
You spent money on it, so I'm sure it won't look like a pig's snout.
Hurry up and come outside.
That brat.
It should be a lot better than a pig's snout!
Jin Bong, come on out. The soup will go cold.
Why do you always make a huge fuss about eating?
I heard your brain works better if you eat breakfast.
Then Aunt doesn't need to eat.
She never needs to use her brain.
Hey, a beautiful woman doesn't need to be smart.
Father.
You know that I need to go to the academy today, right?
Can you fill in for me this morning? I won't take long.
What about your mother?
Today's the anniversary of my father's death.
She's busy getting ready for the memorial ceremony.
Why did your father have to die on the day you go to the academy?
Pardon?
I'm busy today.
Let's just close the restaurant for today.
We don't even make that much money anyway.
We can't do that.
It might not cause a huge loss,
but I don't want anyone coming and going back because it's closed.
I can't help you because I have an important appointment today.
What kind of appointment?
I promised to work part-time at the realtor's office today.
Again?
Jin Bong.
Can you help me out...
I can't work at the restaurant looking like this.
You guys are so mean.
Do you think my mom's a slave?
She's the one who earns a living for this family.
My goodness.
Director Kang, are you going to work?
Mom, you're doing it again.
I told you to stop calling me that.
Why? You're a director at a broadcasting station.
That's why I'm calling you that.
I'm not a director. I'm your son.
My gosh, I'm calling you that because I'm proud of you.
You know today's the anniversary of your father's death, right?
I'll come home early.
Don't make any pancakes, okay?
I'll cook them after work.
My gosh, I don't want the director cooking any pancakes.
You should just focus on producing your next drama.
There's nothing to watch on TV these days...
because you're not making anything.
- I'll see you. - Okay, have a good day.
Watch out for cars, and listen to your teacher.
I'll also be attentive and study hard. Are you happy now?
Yes, you should go.
Mom, don't live like that.
What?
No one will ever acknowledge your hard work.
Bye, Yu Ri.
Bye, kiddo.
Hey, Mom.
Hey, it's me.
Aren't you supposed to go to the academy today?
What? Oh, yes.
Why didn't you tell me?
You know I easily forget things.
I know you're busy getting ready for Dad's memorial ceremony.
Your father's no longer alive.
Taking care of my daughter is more important to me.
It's okay, Mom. You don't need to worry.
Father agreed to fill in for me.
My goodness, what's gotten into him?
He never does anything to help.
What are you talking about? He helps when I'm really busy.
I'll see you tonight. I'm sorry I can't be there to help.
It's okay. We've been doing this for years.
Take your time and come after work.
By the way,
hasn't Jin Sang come home yet?
What?
He's busy studying.
They say, "Sons-in-law will forever be a guest to a mother-in-law."
But I guess I'll never even get to see my guest.
But then again, he didn't even come to congratulate my birthday.
So he obviously won't come to his father-in-law's memorial ceremony.
Okay, then.
Father.
Are you leaving?
I shouldn't slack off. I should go and make money.
- Father. - Yes?
I'll give you that money.
- You? - Yes.
So can you please work at the restaurant for me?
I have an exam coming up, so I can't miss a class.
But we can't close the restaurant because there will be customers.
How much are you going to pay me?
My service is worth a lot of money.
30 dollars.
Hae Jin.
- I'll see you. - Okay, fine.
50 dollars.
Make it 100 dollars.
How about 70 dollars?
Okay, fine.
Instead, that money better be coming out of your pocket.
Make sure it has nothing to do with our sales.
Okay, fine. I've already pre-cooked everything last night.
So it won't be that hard.
Are you here to eat pork cutlet?
Yes.
But why would you...
eat pork cutlet for breakfast?
What?
We're not open right now, so you can go somewhere else.
No, wait.
I traveled a long distance because I heard...
the pork cutlet here is very delicious.
My goodness, that's too bad.
Then you'll have to travel a long distance to go back.
What? No, wait.
(Ssyong Ssyong Pork Cutlet)
Hey, Mr. Han.
We should change the location today.
Come to our restaurant.
Are you all doing well?
- Yes. - Yes.
Just a second.
Hae Jin, how did you cook this? It's really delicious.
I just followed your instructions.
I should take it home before it gets cold.
My husband's favorite day is when I go to cooking class.
He loves eating the food I cooked.
My gosh, I'm surprised you still care so much about your husband.
I know, right?
(An Introduction to Administrative Law)
(Loss compensation)
Jin Sang, what are you doing?
What do you think? I'm studying.
Jin Sang, you shouldn't lie to us.
- Let's go eat. - Okay.
(Hae Jin)
(Wanna Taste?)
Jeong Ju Ri is back!
Aren't you going to attend the seminar today?
Seminar? Yes, I'll go.
- Do you have a girlfriend? - No, not exactly.
- Let's get out of here. - What?
I want to be alone with you.
Until when are you going to tell your friends I'm your older sister?
Will you be quiet?
I'm your wife, not your older sister.
Just leave before my friends get here.
Didn't your sister just fall down?
Don't mind her. She'll be fine.
