Melody of Love
Did you wait long?
No, are you done now?
Yeah.
Are you hungry?
No, I ate before the performance.
You were great up there.
Really?
Better than when you won at Korea Sings.
You're getting better by the day.
Really?
It's so rewarding to hear you say that.
I'm glad I practiced all those times.
Deulim.
Is there something you'd like to ask me?
Dad.
Ask away.
I'll answer all your questions.
Your father went to see Deulim?
I think so.
He asked me if I knew where the theater was.
He never asked you that before.
What's gotten into him?
Maybe he wants to tell her the truth.
Yes. That must be it.
I think so, too.
Is he out of his mind?
What is he going to say to her?
Think of this as for the best.
Deulim has to know the truth.
Why should she?
She was fine without knowing the truth.
What good will it do for her to find out now?
This is all your fault!
Why weren't you more careful?
I didn't mean to blurt that out.
You and they pushed me to saying it.
What are we going to do?
I feel so bad for Deulim.
We have to do something.
Call your father.
Mom, let dad take care of this.
How can I?
Call him now!
Yes?
Where are you?
Why?
Are you with Deulim?
Yes.
Come home.
We need to talk.
What about?
Where are you? I'll be right there.
Stay home and don't worry.
Honey!
What now? He just hung up on me.
Is he with Deulim?
Yes.
He's going to tell her.
Where is he?
He won't say.
He sounded determined.
He's horrible!
He's about to ruin everything!
How can you say that?
You're calling him horrible?
He's done me nothing but harm.
It started when he brought that baby home
after he lost everything to that con man!
Stop it.
I worked so hard to raise that girl.
Now he's about to tell her that I'm not her mother!
You raised her all these years.
Deulim will still see you as her mother.
Don't worry.
Yes.
We can't hide this forever.
Even if Deulim is shocked by this,
she'll want to know the truth.
Her heart will be broken.
Oh, my heart...
What are we going to do?
Mom.
Kids nowadays dance and sing so well.
I can dance that.
You?
You can dance that?
Watch.
Okay.
You're so good!
Taehui!
Why aren't you studying?
I was studying.
Now I'm taking a break.
I told you to listen to meditation music.
Why were you dancing?
And why didn't you stop her?
Why would I stop her?
I finally feel like I'm raising a daughter!
Wake up Taehui. If your scores go down,
it'll be hard to bring them up again.
Whatever.
I'm home.
- Hey. - Son.
Did you have a happy day today?
Yes, dad, thanks to you.
What good chemistry you have.
Go see his performance. It'll cheer you up.
I gave up on him after he went to work in theater.
Other sons become lawyers and doctors
after their dads, but he's in theater!
When will you stop saying that?
Where's Uncle?
Sejun, I'm home.
Hey.
Are you not feeling well?
I heard you skipped dinner.
What use is food?
I've lost all meaning in life.
What's wrong?
I think I've lost her.
Already?
She's uncomfortable around me.
Maybe you were coming on too strong.
Maybe.
I asked her to come over to our house.
She started pushing me away after that.
Why didn't you take things slow?
You've only just met her.
I never thought time was that significant.
Look at you.
You've known Suim for years but you didn't make a move.
You're right.
Time's not important.
Did Suim give you an answer?
She's busy with her new case.
Be more proactive.
Call her and go see her.
You're making me laugh.
We haven't solved our own problems but we're giving each other advice.
You're right.
I'm not my parents daughter.
Is she crying somewhere again?
Are you busy?
No, I'm fine.
Let's go shopping for clothes, since you have some time before your arranged date.
Mom, I don't want to go to that.
You're backing out now?
You're making me feel like an idiot.
What did I do?
I'm not a child.
I don't want my mom telling me which girl to date.
But you don't have anyone.
Your grandfather wants a grandson.
There's a girl I like.
Who is she?
It's too soon to tell you.
But I'll tell you later.
Are you lying to get out of that date?
When have I ever lied to you?
Do you have feelings for Suim?
Mom.
I told you that you can't be with her.
I'll never change my mind. Understand?
Honey.
Nothing's going my way.
Give Suim a chance.
This is your fault.
If you've tried to get closer to Hyeonu,
and accepted him as a son,
I wouldn't be acting so superficially.
I'm sorry.
If you don't approve of Suim because of me,
I'll work harder to reach out to Hyeonu.
You've said that a million times.
Honey.
If you don't trust me and Hyeonu,
I'm afraid there's nothing you can do about yourself.
You think I don't trust you?
That's not true.
It's the same thing.
I know you.
Honey.
I thought I should tell you one day but
I hope that day would never come.
Dad.
You're all grown up now
so I can tell you the truth.
Tell me.
I had a friend I loved. He died, leaving his little baby girl behind.
He passed away,
leaving you behind.
My father is dead?
How?
It was a traffic accident.
And he had no other family.
That's why I took you in.
What about my mother?
Tell me. What happened?
As far as I know, days after she had you...
Did she pass away, too?
Yes.
I want you to marry
a good man rather than doing musicals.
That way, I can tell my friend I did a good job raising you.
I'll tell them how proud you make me.
Dad.
But today, I changed my mind.
You really lit up that stage tonight.
Deulim.
You grew up so well thanks to your
parents and to me and your mother.
Even if we scold you sometimes,
our love for you has never changed.
You have to believe us.
Dad.
You can cry today but don't let this bring tears to your eyes again.
Your parents would want you to be happy and cheerful.
What are you doing out here?
Mom was worried.
Suim.
Stop crying.
Your face is going to freeze.
Mom's waiting.
Let's go.
Let's go home.
Come here, girls.
Let's go.
Deulim!
Grandma.
Did your father tell you everything?
I'm so sorry.
Why? She has parents and a sister.
Are you okay?
You were sitting on this for days?
Let go of this starting from tomorrow.
And you mark what I said to you.
Your mom loves you more than anything.
You know that?
I do.
Why are you being so polite?
Go back to how you always were.
Did you have dinner?
Yeah.
Where's your mother?
In her room.
Mom.
Are you happy you know the truth?
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
I don't believe your apologies.
You've apologized so much, I don't believe you.
I'm sorry I was a bad daughter.
I'm sorry I couldn't ask you about this.
I was scared
that it might be true.
So what?
You're still my daughter!
Mom.
You're freezing!
Why did you stay out like that?
What if you catch a cold again?
I'm okay.
No mater what... This is your home, Deulim.
And I am your mother.
That's never going to change.
I know.
And yet you didn't tell us how you felt?
Did you want to see my heartbroken?
I'm sorry.
Thank you for raising me.
I'm sorry.
You were having such a rough time and I didn't know...
Don't, mom.
Public opinion is not on our side,
especially with the HR case.
Let's focus on winning our other suits.
Yes, sir.
Hyeonu, are they setting the date for pleading?
Yes.
Are you ready?
I'll be fine if I stick to my briefings.
Divorce cases can be difficult.
Don't make mistakes in court.
You're making me nervous.
I'll see you later.
Suim.
Hey.
I look forward to working with you.
As do I.
Let's work hard.
Do you two know each other?
Yes, but we're going to approach this case fairly.
How? Your client isn't being fair.
What do you mean by that?
Stop lying.
We've been together for years.
You can't do this to me.
Stop lying to people.
And I'm never going to settle so stop bothering me with that.
I have no intention of settling.
I'm seeing this through to the end.
I won't let you have your way.
Fine, let's do it.
please, calm down. Let's go.
Laundry!
- I went to Dandelion Apartment. - Okay.
THis is for Rose Apartment.
I have to go to the theater!
Just do one more round.
I'm already late.
I have to make lunch, too!
Hey! Deulim!
Ugh.
Stop making her work.
She'll be too tired to perform.
That's why she has CHinese medicine.
Wait, she didn't have it this morning.
I knew it.
You're supposed to be her mother.
I feel bad giving it to her in front of mother.
What are you making today?
Sandwiches.
But it's so cold out there. Eat something warm.
Why are you making lunch anyway?
Because it's expensive to eat out.
You're talking like your mother now.
You're talking behind my back to my daughter?
What are you doing?
She's mkaing lunch.
THis is because of the $1,000 you took.
That's my money.
That's what you say about all money.
It's in my pocket so it's mine.
I have to deliver food now thanks to you.
What?
It's nothing.
What about your medicine?
I'm busy. I'll take it later.
Hey! Stop!
Hey!
The medicine won't help you if you skip drinking it.
I'll drink it as I'm leaving.
But that's cold. I have to heat it up.
It won't matter once I drink it.
Bye.
Why is she always in a hurry?
Hello.
You asked to see me, so I was happy to come.
Have a seat.
Have you made up your mind?
My opinion hasn't changed.
I won't do licensed productions.
That's unfortunate.
Then we'll have to bring in another director.
I'll leave Milky Way after this production.
You can discuss with Eunha regarding that.
What do you mean?
I'm sorry.
Do you really have to do this?
I apologize for being so stubborn even when I knew our company was struggling.
Taegyeong.
I hope you bring in an excellent director and your musical does well.
I see. Thank you.
I wish you good luck.
I have to go back to rehearsals.
I finished putting up posters.
Why didn't you put on gloves?
I store a lot of heat in my body so I hate wearing gloves.
But it's winter.
You're going around like that?
What?
You're not like your usual self.
Was I that mean to you?
No.
But you've never been this warm to me.
Now I'm confused.
Right.
Good luck, Suim.
Yeah, you too.
You did well.
I think you have a good case.
Yeah?
But these divorce suits are so cruel.
Their arguments are so different but there's basically no evidence.
It was like seeing enemies fighting.
Yeah.
But the fact that the son isn't the husband's child is a decisive factor.
The court will probably let him win.
Are you saying I'll win?
We'll have to see about that though.
Since you won this round,
you owe me lunch.
I'm sorry. I have plans.
Oh.
You seem to have lunch plans every day.
Yeah, it happened that way.
Sorry.
I'm getting sad.
Don't be. Don't be mad.
I'll take you out some other time.
Okay, see you.
Bye.
Tada!
What's wrong with this?
I still remember the nightmare of the rice rolls,
and now you're giving me this?
Try it and see.
Tell me the truth.
Did you spend the $1,000?
Is that why you're making these lunches?
What are you talking about?
I used that to pay for these ingredients.
I don't believe you.
I said we should eat at a restaurant,
but you insisted on eating outside.
If you're going to complain,
I'm going to stop buying you lunch.
That's not fair.
We were both at fault anyway.
So I think I've done enough.
Fine.
Then keep bringing the lunches.
I guess I have no choice but to eat them.
Don't complain about my cooking again.
I think it tastes delicious!
Ah, this is so good.
How are things with your family?
Fine.
I learned how much my family loves me.
That's great.
I told you things would work themselves out.
I'll admit you helped me a little.
I'll pay you back later.
This kid...
It's good to see you smile again.
You're really ugly when you're frowning.
It's better when you're smiling.
Hurry up and eat.
Are you okay?
Why did you bite my finger?
Because you caught me by surprise!
Does it hurt?
Tell me the truth.
Did you do that on purpose to hurt me?
How could you?
Can't you see I'm being real?
Ow...
Let me see.
That must hurt.
Sorry.
I swear I didn't do it on purpose
Here.
Hyojin.
Sejun.
I thought I might see you here.
I was right.
I was passing by.
Goodbye.
Are we really ending it?
I told you how I feel.
I have nothing left to say.
I don't think this is over between us.
I'll come here every day until you take me back.
Please don't.
I'm never coming back.
Goodbye.
We're not over!
I'm going to wait for you! No matter what!
What's this?
Who let their dog poop here?
Excuse me.
Yes?
I think this is your dog's doing.
That couldn't be.
I brought my pick up bags.
Where are they?
Let me see them.
Why?
You don't trust me?
Now I'm offended, so I won't show you.
Where's your conscience?
What?
It's people like you that's ruining it for all other dog owners.
You should clean up after your dog.
Shouldn't you know better?
What?
How dare you talk to me that way?
How dare I?
Do you even know me?
You're standing there lecturing me!
You need to clean up that conscience of yours.
You're ruining it for every pedestrian here.
Ha. Whatever!
My conscience is as white as snow.
No one else has a cleaner conscience.
Come in. My mom's not here.
It's too bad your dog isn't here.
Are you hungry?
I'll cook this time.
You can cook?
I make ramen.
That's not cooking.
It's not easy to cook ramen well.
You have to put in the right amount of
water and cook it for just the right amount.
Yeah.
Then try it.
Sit over there.
Did you enjoy your walk?
Who are you?
Mom.
These are my friends.
Oh.
Are you the ones who came last time?
Yes.
Hi.
Who's second place and who's third place?
- Huh? - Excuse me?
Why are you asking them that?
That's how moms are.
What are your names?
I'm Lee Jahye.
You?
I'm Kim Seonghun.
I've never heard those names before.
I know most of the A students in your school.
You'll hear our names more often.
You must be second place.
What do your parents do?
Why do you ask?
That's rude. You should just answer.
Mom, stop it.
You kids are all the same.
Smart kids are so stuck up.
I need to lie down. I have a headache.
Do your studies.
Why does your head hurt?
I was out walking my puppy when I got into a big row with this woman.
She was so rude.
Taehui, we should go.
Why?
See you at school.
Bye.
Come again soon.
Are they really second and third place?
They don't look so smart.
You really embarrassed me.
Why?
She's so much like her father.
What an awful woman.
Did you have a weird customer?
I saw this woman walking her dog.
She didn't pick up after him.
I stepped on it. We got into a big fight.
You got into another fight?
I had to.
Why do you keep getting into fights?
When have I done anything thoughtless?
It's thoughtless to start fights.
Suim, isn't it illegal not to pick up after your dog in a public park?
Yes.
It's a crime.
You're subject to a fine of less than $100.
See?
I should have said that to that woman.
I hope I run into her again.
Why didn't you come straight home?
Why did you go to the park?
Huh?
It was on my way home.
You have to take the long way to get there.
I went to see the falling autumn leaves.
You're like a young school girl.
I'm young at heart but I have kids to feed now.
Don't be stupid and eat.
Fine.
Did something fun happen today?
Remember that $1,000 guy?
You're still seeing him?
Huh? Yeah.
What for?
You got the money.
It's a long story.
It's not good to get involved with a jerk.
He actually seems like a good guy.
What?
You said he's in a gang.
Now you changed your mind?
I was wrong about that.
Really?
What does he do?
That's not important.
As long as he's not in a gang.
Professions can be important.
He seems nice.
And kind.
And a little cute.
You're starting to worry me.
I don't know.
I'm going to shower.
Tell me what's going on!
[Taegyeong]
Why is he calling at this hour?
Taegyeong?
Suim.
What is it?
I'm near your house.
Can you come out?
It's late.
Please. I'm asking you.
Is something going on?
I wanted to see you.
Have a drink.
You too.
I love seeing you smile.
I wanted to see that smile.
I wanted to see you, even if you haven't given me an answer yet.
Taegyeong.
I try to stay hopeful every day, and I try to wait until the next day.
But then I call because I missed you.
I'm sorry I kept you waiting.
I really am.
That's okay.
I don't want you to be uncomfortable.
I didn't want to lose you.
I was scared I might hurt you.
I'm grateful you think of me in that way,
but there's a guy I like.
