A Little Love Never Hurts
Episode 37
What is this?
Take a look in the first place.
Mutual Living Agreement
What in the world is this?
His children says they are okay with mother and him living together but against official marriage.
I don't want mom to live like that but if they like each other so much, I think think this agreement is not a bad idea.
What is this contract about?
This contract has legal standing too.
Isn't it a loss for mom to just live with him?
This document was drafted by a lawyer; he says that these things are common theses days.
"When they start to live together, he has to deposit $30,000"..
"In case of his death, the money will be considered as a compensation."
He says these terms are not unreasonable. We followed what the norm these days.
Sir, the weather got warmer. Would you like to go on a hike with me tomorrow?
There is a park nearby. Did you ever go there?
Yes. I have been there. I'll lead so be out in front of your place by 6:00 AM.
DId you tell this to mom?
No, not yet. Wh thought we tell you first.
What are you doing!?
Miss!
This doesn't make any sense. Are you saying that you want to sell mom for money
Hey. How can you talk like that at this point?
That's not it. What I am saying is that we should think realistically.
Quiet! Mother may hear.
His children doesn't want marriage. So we have to find mutually agreeable terms. Isn't that good for mom?
What agreeable terms between the children do we need?
Whether its official marriage or just living together, I think its up to them to decide.
Do parents stand idle by when their children gets married?
Just like that, children can't just stand idle by when their parents gets married.
Whatever kind of marriage it may be, marriage is a big matter to families: A big matter!
Even so, for children to come up with this kind of arrangement, its just crass!
Miss,
Both of them want to live so badly with each other.
They are holding out because of our concerns.
Why do you think they're watchful of their children?
What would it be?
It's because the two of them sincerely respect and worry about each other.
They're afraid that the relationship with the children will break down.
Mi Joo, did you come?
Yes, mother!
Don't put out this type of contract to Mother. I'll ask you Oppa.
She's deluding herself in thinking that she's the only one thinking of Mother.
This contract we can make it again many many times over.
What were you doing in that room?
Oh, I was just talking with Oppa for a minute.
About what?
Oh, I guess he's curious as to if things are going well with Ha Rim.
I guess he would be curious. But why were you so late?
I went to the library and studied and met Ha Rim too. Let's go in.
All right. Fine.
Hey.
Aigoo, I drank some in a long time.
It would be good to go home.
Hey punk, I have pride also.
When your mom left without even looking back should I have just followed her?
There's no reason for your face to look like that.
The start was your problem but this chance
there's a need to look back at our married couple relationship.
It's 35 years.
It's a long time.
But
except for having worked together,
there aren't any other memories.
When we were working in that basement factory, we were happy just sharing a piece of bread.
Father, in the future you can make better memories. There's still time.
If we can do that it would be nice.
Go on.
Yes. Goodnight.
Ha Rim.
Thank you for today.
For the first time I had an anniversary worthy dinner.
For next year's anniversary it would be good to prepare it more meaningfully.
You, don't let go of Song Mi Joo.
The more I see her the more I like her. The two of you, even without talking I saw a connection.
Thank you, Father.
Ok.
This is a color that's popular this spring but I think it would suit you well too Mother-in-Law.
Congratulations on your Wedding Anniversary. From Song Mi Joo.
I want to definitely see Mom and Dad wearing these pajamas.
From your daughter Ha Kyeong who loves you very very much.
The start was just so so but the middle was good.
The end was so so also.
The middle was good but why is the end so so?
Um, Dad's at the hotel and Mom is at home. We're back to the beginning.
If you come to know it house by house, everyone has worries.
What are your house's worries?
Doesn't your head hurt?
If you add our house's worries your head will probably explode.
Come to think of it you don't speak about yourself. Were you always like that?
I've never heard you talk about your parents or other family.
At the beginning you did say that your mother had passed away.
Except for that
there isn't anything special to say.
It's not that you don't want to say it?
Hello?
Hell...?
You didn't fall asleep, right?
To you Team Leader,
do I have to tell you everything that goes on in my family?
Do you know that your words are upsetting as I hear them?
There are a lot of things to be upset about. Hang up. It's late.
Jeong Jae Min.
On the surface you pretend to be bright and cheery but in truth there are many things you're hiding, right?
You don't have to be like that to me.
Later, if you meet a woman you don't want to lose,
show her even those hurts that you're hiding.
So that she knows that "this man is really thinking of me genuinely."
When you come to love the hurts is when you really come to love someone.
Don't use the love formula that you learned from books just anywhere.
This isn't something that I learned in a book but something I came to realize as I watched you.
Goodnight.
I'll see you tomorrow.
This man
pretends that he's fine.
She loves even the hurts but I don't have to do that to her.
Fine.
Don't worry.
I'm absolutely not doing that.
Thank you for today.
Father went to the hotel again but I believe that the 35 years that the two people spent together aren't in vain.
Sleep well.
I thought that too after seeing the two of them. Everything will turn out well.
Teacher, they call those things Couple Looks. Doesn't it look nice?
Should we buy a pair too?
Oh, no. Don't be greedy for too many things.
Are you tired?
Since it's the first time a little bit. From now on I'm going to have to come out everyday and exercise. My mood is fresh.
From now on I'm going to ask you to come out to exercise every morning so don't be lazy.
Yes.
It's refreshing, isn't it?
Yes. Slowly, slowly.
Slowly?
Since I'm drinking Miso Soup with you Teacher it seems like a quality Latte.
Me too. All the things I do seem like new when I do it with you.
This park I used to walk before, the sky I used to stare at and
even this coffee seem special.
I feel that way too.
The word "special" seem to have a new meaning too.
Being together with someone is a thankful thing.
Yeah. For me, even the smallest of things seem new.
Let's not get greedy about us.
Okay.
Oh! Father, Father!
Where are you coming from, so early in the morning?
Oh. I changed my hiking routine to morning. I'll get your breakfast soon.
No. No. I slept late. I'll get breakfast at work.
Oh. You got up early.
Did you sleep well?
Yeas, I did. I'll be back after I wash my hands.
Are you hiking with that woman too?
Selecting a new CEO was denied by the board.
It was rejected today also.
She left for work this morning. Where did she go?
Yes, I understand.
Hanging up.
Yesterday it would have been good if you pretended to be unable to win and came back to the house even if only for the children.
There's nothing I can say.
I'll call you later.
Hello Vice President.
You are here?!
You are working hard. The store looks sleek.
Thank you!
In a while, when new season's items arrive, it will be hectic.
Yes, I will keep my senses sharp and work diligently.
Because of you I'm laughing for the first time today.
Fine. Keep your senses sharp and work diligently.
Yes, Director.
Director.
If you're going to look at the other stores should I escort you?
I'm thankful for your words but I want to look myself. Work hard.
I knew you'd be here.
You come here sometimes too?
No.
I knew that you would come here sometimes when you were having difficulty.
Tha place by the triangle corner was our basement shop, right?
I believe so since from the large street down there it was about a 15 minute walk.
When we got the truck to move our merchandise, you were so happy.
Everything we did here had meaning and worth.
Should we go somewhere to have a cup of tea?
No. I have something else to do. I'll go first.
I don't expect you to hold onto me now because of company matters.
There are a mountain of things that have to be decided at the company.
You have to hurry up and make your decision for the company to function properly.
I know it. I'm trying to take care of things in order right now.
Unnie, I'm sorry that I'm a little late. Go eat lunch.
It's ok.
if you don't have dinner plans tonight how about having dinner with me?
Yes. I'll do that.
I'll decide the time and the place and let you know.
If you wear it together with your wife when you go outside it will suit you both well.
I don't know what size to choose.
How is your wife's stature?
Oh, her height is moderate and her body is on the thin side.
Teacher, this size is good for you
and for the Madam, this one.
Yes Teacher.
Don't hang up and will you come outside for a minute?
Come forward a little more.
Where are you?
There are boxes stacked there, right? Look behind them.
I hope that you like it.
Where are you calling from?
Look to the right.
It's cold so go on in.
Yes, you go carefully too.
Father, why don't you take off your sunglasses while you eat?
Why are you saying that? It's cool.
Have your rose colored glasses not come off yet?
When they were about to come off I put them back on again.
Hey, where is New Baby?
She says that she has something to take care of. She'll be right back.
You guys aren't easy these days either. Gossiping without end.
Why do you have so much to do?
Between a couple, its normal.
Coffee.
Ok.
No, no.
Honey, you just finish eating.
Honey, you eat a lot. Eat slowly. Chew slowly too.
All right.
Hey, if you're mostly done eating mix up some coffee and bring it.
Yes, I'll carry out your order.
Eat a lot.
Why are you suddenly being so good to me?
When are you going to become fickle again?
Man, even when I'm good to you you complain.
For this matter tell us a good time so we can come to an agreement.
That side must have decided to accept my proposal.
Do you have an idea what kind of agreement they want to make?
Now we'll have to each talk about it.
What are you going to tell Father-in-Law?
If the talks go well between us then I think it'll be good to tell him.
The phone is turned off so
What is she doing that she even turned off her phone.
What about to Brother-in-Law?
Jae Min is against the subject of a settlement so even if I call him he probably won't want to come.
All right.
See you later.
Ok, see you later.
Teacher Jeong.
I'll ask you to take care of me.
Yes.
Aiyoo, you should be careful, dropping so sloppily.
Ah, this is absolutely not a coincidence.
Because I knew that Jeong Yoo Ra was invited to the preview before I came.
Then I will go on.
Calls from Unni to you.<?i>
Excuse me.
How many stars are you going to give it?
This is also not a coincidence since I followed you.
What are you trying to do?
What does it look like I'm trying to do?
I wanted to see you one more time so I followed you.
Are you a stalker?
No. I'm only going to follow you to here.
After that I have to believe in coincidence once.
But by all means if we come to meet each other again then we should definitely eat a meal together once.
Instead you're gonna buy.
At who's decision?
You know how much Korean debuted movie director make?
Look here. I hate men who just throw themselves forward without virtue.
I'll do it so you don't hate it.
I may look like this but I'm actually a lot of fun.
Oh, that wasn't that funny.
I'll get up first since I have a staff meeting.
And in case you were to find me repugnant if I said a few more words.
Then I'll get going now.
♫ God help the girl ♫
♫ She needs all the help she can get ♫
♫ I sat for hours just waiting for his phone call ♫
♫ I leave the chocolate hidden in the fridge ♫
♫ I play his messages ♫
♫ It's all a lot of information ♫
Unni
Why were you not answering the calls?
I was in a meeting about a movie.
If you still don'y want get involved with dad's issue, I and my husband will meet with them.
So, don't say anything later.
Let's go together. I'm curious as to how and what kind of agreement we'll end up with.
How is dad?
His face is happy, happy everyday.
I think he decided not to bother with our concerns.
He even takes early morning hikes with her.
Don't think of it badly.
Have dinner before you go.
Unni.
Just what are your true feelings?
If possible, I want to help dad,
without feeling sorry or guilty toward mom.
Why?
Just..
If you stayed like that for one minute, I might feel better.
Is it because of your parents?
This, that and everything.
Team leader! Let's eat dinner and then continue.
Did she leave already?
Let's eat dinner and continue.
Yes.
Aiyoo! They left all by themselves!
Do you die if you skip a meal?
Not die but if I'm I get hungry, I can't see straight.
I don't feel like eating.
You go and eat all by yourself without any sense of loyalty to me.
Trying to keep loyalty to you is rather difficult.
Don't regret it later.
When I can't see straight because of hunger, I may end up eating you up.
Here take a bite.
Suddenly, I think of the meaning of life.
Why am I living? Did yo ever think about those things?
Why should I when it gives me headaches?
After I graduated college,
I only thought of about getting a job.
If I get a job, all my life's worries
will disappear. So I thought.
Since you got a job now, did it?
No it didn't.
I'm getting new worries now.
What is the right way of living?
How can I be a good son?
And how can I be a good younger brother to my sisters?
You worry about the things that you should be worrying about, I see.
Then, how was it before you went to college?
When mom was alive, I think I was happy.
No.
I was definitely happy.
You must have really loved your mom.
That was a strange question from me.
Of course you must have loved your mom.
She was not my real mother.
I
was a child that my father bore outside of marriage.
I met the biological mother once.
She didn't seem like a mother to me.
Even to this day, my only mom is
the one who passed away.
After mom passed away, I realized something.
To the family member, I was
an evidence that dad had an affair.
What is this?
If you want to lean on me,
you can lean on me and
you can cry if want to cry.
Are you trying to comfort me with that short arm?
Not comfort but just..
You can stop if the subject is too hard to talk about.
I already told you everything.
And, what if I was born outside of marriage?
I love my dad and my sisters.
Though I haven't completed,
I'm on my way to the right path.
Ah, I'm hungry!
Since I been yapping about things, I'm famished.
Jung Woo. When you are coming back, get about 5 portions of either kimbaps or burgers.
There is a hunger monster here.
I like chicken better.
He says he likes chicken better.
Ai, we were working on the mankins but you guys just left.
Hurry and come back.
It seems like you don't like serious things
That's right. That goes for you too, team leader.
Thank you for the advice.
You found out about one thing though.
What is that?
That your birth was right and mine was wrong.
Different level of birth?!
What kind of crap is that? You are you!
When you talk like that you seem worthless.
From now on, you don't have be dashing in front of me but
don't be worthless.
Welcome.
I reserved under Lee Hye Shin for two.
Ah. This way please.
Mother.
I am a customer today.
Eun Joo.
This is my mother.
Hello, how are you? I am Song Eun Joo.
She is Mi Joo's sister.
She is my guest. Please sit down.
I will prepare the dinner.
Now I know.
You met Ha Rim thru your sister working here, right?
Yes.
Why is your mother meeting Ji Joo here?
Since the are both customers today, please serve them well.
Okay.
Is your younger sister from your new mother?
Or..
Yes. She's my half sister.
I didn't get to ask this last time.
Why did your parents get divorced?
Dad had an affair.
Then my younger sister was born. After that, my mother divorced and left.
I grew up with the new mother.
Recently, I began living with my mom.
Ah, so that's why you wanted to include the new mother to the family introduction.
Yes.
She's a nice person.
If I wanted get picky about this, I could.
Since what your parents did wasn't your fault,
Let's not worry about that.
Let's finish out talk first.
Since we should eat joyfully.
Go ahead, please.
You said you won't marry without my permission:
That a heart can get change from waiting too long or
a heart can can change.
Is your feelings toward Ha Rim that shallow?
A heart that cools and change so easily?
I was saying that because if you and Ha Rim was going to sever ties, I didn't want that to happen.
I thought I should be the one to give up.
Well, I
gave many hurtful things to Ha Rim.
If accepting you is
my compensation to him.
Then, I should do that.
And I want to apologize for trying to give you money.
I am very thankful that you didn't tell HaRim.
On this Sunday,
If its okay with your parents,
let's do the family introduction.
Mother.
Until now it was uncomfortable for me to hear "mother" but
please call me mother.
I'll talk comfortably as well.
Shall we eat now?
Yes, mother.
Chef! Your mom laughed.
Its true.
Something good happened, right?
I'll take of this order myself.
Please take care of the other tables.
Okay.
Not sure how Harim likes to cook.
My mother was busy helping her father,
didn't have any opportunity to cook,
and so was I.
His sensitivity and detail oriented characters must be from his parents.
How about you, MeeJu?
I, too, love to cook.
Must be from my mother...
You must be a perfect match since both love to cook!
Have a sit, for a moment. I'd like to tell you...
Last time when we met MeeJu's mother,
I said, not to live by yourselves.
Such way of imposing...
I feel ashamed of it.
I'll apologize when the time comes,
please, you tell her for me as well.
Then, accepting Meeju, itself was,
being generous, I thought.
But I had a thought that we'll be strangers to each other,
if I let you live by yourselves,
after your wedding.
Mother,
that means, you allow our marriage?
Sure! Let's find out your house first!
Meeju mentioned that she'll continue her career,
it'll be much better off to live by yourselves.
Thank you, mother!
No need of thanking me.
I thought it's much better to gain a daughter-in-law,
than lose a son.
You seem nonchalant, now that I see...
You want to do that in front of me?
You need to adapt it...
This is nothing, now days.
Mother, you've tasted the grilled halibut with green laver sauce...
It'll be good for the second time.
Meeju knows all my menu by heart!
Get your suitcase!
Can't proceed the formal meeting without you.
Did I say I'll miss the formal meeting?
We must attend both the formal meeting, and the wedding!
Since I'm the father, even if we divorce!
I'm glad and relieved to hear that
you've allowed Harim's Wedding.
You must have thought of me as a business partner!
I was able to last till now because of you!
It would be difficult, right away... but
I plan to work less,
I'd like to pick out your tie at home,
play golf together.
Are you sure?
Have you seen me pretending?
I want to be comfortable as you mentioned.
Can you help me so that I can be comfortable?
Do I have to...
kneel down?
Your negotiation skill is unbelievable!!!
You are a born business person!
Ah! Oh, my...
You've had hard time!
I apologize for your concerns!
I'm grateful for Meeju's endurance.
It's important to understand each other.
You will be fine,
to remember that trust
even for other hardships.
Mom, I won't disappoint you!
Sure, I trust you.
You both will be happy.
Anyhow, I'm relieved that your mother allowed your marriage!
It's all because of Meeju!
I didn't do anything!
Mother accepted me for Harim.
Nop! It wasn't possible at all.
Mother! We're back.
We're back. Ah...
Hello... Uh, You're here..?
Mr. Harim Yoon! You must get your mother's permission before anything!
Oppa...
Do you think you can gallantly come & go our house
without the permission?
Uh! He's come with the permission!
This coming Sunday, we'll formally meet.
Ah! Congrats! This time is for sure?
Yes! I apologize for your concerns.
Sit down!
I have no idea how well off your family is...
Just congratulate them!
You need to be accurate...
It is a well off family... for sure.
It's the group wino.
So what? That person is only a cook!
Next time, I'll invite you to my restaurant.
I do have restaurant business.
I won't have time to visit your restaurant for eat.
Let's get going, Harim.
Yes, It's late. Get going!
Look!
Can I ask you a question?
Yes.
Do you have two mothers llike us?
What are you talking about?
Uh.. I heard that you're a cook instead of working at the office...
what if you have a mother who gave a birth to...
Right? Honey?
Is that it?
I have one mother.
Ah.. Yes. I'm sorry.
Get going...
Mother, I'll come pick you up on Sunday.
No, need to. I'll find a way!
I'll. Take care, now.
Good bye!
Byung Joo!
You were that curious about that?!
Because they were against the marriage, he's a son of Winner Group's son but only living as a chef.
Of course I would be curious.
Not everyone is the same.
You should have been careful with your words.
What? As a brother, I can't ask?
It'll be tight to see the others,
after the formal meeting...
Shall we ask for a postpone it?
We don't have to attend for the formal meeting!
He isn't the favor of his family...
Just tell them that only the elders of the family should go.
Even so, don't you want to see what the rich ones wear, what they eat?
Don't you want to see?
I suppose they all just eat well and dress well.
Just because Mi Joo is getting married to a rich family do you think we'll get anything?
What's important now is mom's issue.
You're right.
What you are saying is true.
Times like this, you seem smart.
I'll apologize on behalf of my brother.
He could have thought that.
May be I should go home and check about my birth secret.
If you find anything about that, let me know.
Then if there is a secret, you don't want to marry me?
Nope. I still have to marry you.
What if everything that happened today is just a dream?
Your mother thoughtfully
permitted me to work after marriage, so
I'm very happy.
In one sense, that's like mother.
She the type to yield on everything or nothing at all.
What's the matter? Something bothering you?
Do you want to live separately from them?
For your sake, isn't that better?
If your mother said no,
I might of wanted to live separately but
for your sake, I think we shouldn't live separately just yet.
Because there are lot of things that you and your mother has to reconcile.
You didn't have too many opportunities to spend good times with your mother, right?
But, if we live together with them, you will have harder time.
How about living separately and just being good to her?
From one point of view,
I didn't grow up in a normal family.
Until I became independent, my heart was always with my mom.
When we marry, your family becomes my family.
I want to feel what a normal family is.
Can we live separately from them after that?
Thank you.
For saying that, I am really thankful.
Mother in law apologized for what she said to you the last time.
Living together withem is not her desire but mine.
With work, living together family elders is not an easy thing.
On top of that, he has a live in aunt.
I won't think of it as a "slaving for the in laws".
More I think of about it, from his mother's perspective,
she will be saddened.
All this time, they weren't on good terms.
I think she will feel like she has lost a son if we live separately from them after we marry.
Although Ha Rim doesn't say anything,
he probably will be saddened,too.
What can I say if you guys are thinking that way?
They will think that they got another child rather than thinking
of you as just a daughter in law, I hope.
I think living together will make affections grow.
Yeah. Whether its loving to hate or hating to love, affection is affection.
Family introduction? -Really?
Yeah!
Chef's mother and Mi Joo came to the restaurant today.
She gave her approval at the restaurant!
Aigoo, that's a good decision. How can one find another good girl like Mi Joo?
Ai, that guy is not too bad either.
He may even be a better person but he doesn't lack anything as Mi Joo's suitor.
Of course that's way it should be.
Mi Joo and chef was so happy, I was even relieved.
Wow! I guess Mi Joo really is going to get married.
I know.
Is that true?
That's what I said. They just came in together.
Oppa, dad came back home.
It was because your hard work on their wedding anniversary.
Hey, how does this look? I heard you, Ha Kyung, got us this gift.
Wow!
You look good too mom.
Its called "sleepy nighty". So, let's see if its true.
Mother.
Can we live here for awhile after we get married?
What are you talking about? Weren't you a modern thinking man?
You wouldn't your wife to suffer at the in laws home.
You are a good business woman but I don't think you are the type to make her suffer.
Since you will be living here, are you warning us before hand not to make her suffer?
You can't decide that all by yourself. You have to ask Mi Joo.
That's right. Discuss it with her and then decide.
Living together with you is Mi Joo's idea.
You and I have lots to reconcile, we didn't spend too much time together and
most of all, she says she wants to become a real family member.
Ha Rim!
Because you took after me, you have a keen sense of picking a good woman.
It seems like everybody is staring at us.
That's because you look good no matter what you wear.
Anyway, its good that your daughter issue resolved.
Ai, on one hand, sending her like this makes me sad.
On the other hand, I feel relieved when I think of Ha Rim as a good mate for her.
If they live happily, sad feeling will be momentary.
Were you sad when you maried off your first daughter?
I was sad.
Since I didn't do much for her, I was even sadder.
But because of the son in law, I thought that I gained a son.
Ai, they say thinking of son and daughter in law as their own is all a lie.
How can son in law be like a son?
My son in law lacks nothing as a son to me.
Then, I should think of my son in law as my son, huh?
Please come in.
These are my parents.
I am Ha Rim's father. -I am Mi Joo's father.
This is Mi Joo's mother.
Nice meeting you for the first time.
She is my aunt and this is my younger sister.
Hello. I am Eun Ha Kyung. Please be kind to me.
Hello, I am Mi Joo's mother.
Hello, I am Mi Joo's mother too.
Please have a seat and converse.
Yes.
How about your other children?
Oh, they had other matter to attend to so we just came.
Thank you for giving us your pretty and well mannered daughter.
Thank you for saying that.
Yes, Mi Joo is wise and there is nothing lacking in her.
When you decide on the date, we'll make the reservation for the wedding.
But you said you don't need dowry and wedding gifts but
isn't that deviating from the norm?
Even sending a bed comforter will be what a parent will want to do.
I'm just saying that we should have the wedding without too much of a burden.
You know that Mi Joo is not an orphan.
We just can't send her away with nothing when the parents are still alive, right?
Mother. -Mi Joo.
Rather than wedding gift, how about we provide the in laws with suits.
Aiyoo. I'm okay. Don't be concerned please.
Then, we will prepare suits for the in laws.
Let's call that our wedding gifts.
Yes, we will do that.
Yes, I'll get it ready.
I didn't think Jae Min will come.
Oh, I told him to come. I thought it was appropriate.
I came to see what kind of negotiation you guys were going to do.
If you are curious about that, just wait. You'll find out soon enough.
That's enough, stop.
You came early I see.
Why didn't your sister come?
She had a family introduction today.
Honey, thats his son and his daughter in law.
I am Kang Sung Hoon.
I am Song Byung Joo.
Hello.
He is my brother.
How are you? I am Jung Jae Min.
Please sit.
Let's cut out the chatters and get to the point.
We can't negotiate by talking about them.
We should have negotiated terms on paper.
What is that you want to do right now?
Its a contract written up by an attorney.
If you have any objections, go ahead and talk.
Isn't that why we met?
The newlyweds want to live with us for awhile.
What do yo think Mi Joo's mother?
If they decided that way, its fine with me.
Aigoo, its so good of them.
Yeah, rather than living apart from us, we can get a sense of family and
after strengthening relationship, then you can move out too.
Yes, aunt.
But who makes their daughter in law serve the in law family these days.
The kids will never turn down the parents' request to live together with them.
The kids already decided to live together with them.
Hyungnim, we should say what we need to say from the get go.
If Mi Joo suffers living there, we can't even go visit her there.
We should let her visit her home every week.
And, how can the newlywed suffer living with the in laws?
Aiyoo, I'm not that kind of person to make her suffer if she lives with us.
You just stay still.
Its because Hyungnim isn't saying anything because of her pride.
She's saying that out of great concern for Mi Joo so
please understand her.
Yes, we can understand her affection for Mi Joo while she was raising her.
I would be thankful if you understood her in that way.
Actually, she raised Mi Joo like her own daughter.
Yeah, though I didn't give birth her,
I raised her as if she was my own.
She doesn't realize that Mi Joo was raised by her because of her.
Ai, in law parents are parents too. One should live cherishing them as well.
If she lacks things, please teach her things.
"At the start of this arrangement, he pays $30,000 deposit."
"If the man should die, there will be compensation based on their household expense accordingly."
"In case of separation because of personality differences,"
"there shall be compensation of: In 3 years, $30,000. In 5 years, $50,000"
Is this contract written with any human regards?
The two of them will live together because they love each other. Why does money have to be exchanged?
Are you stupid?
This is about them trying to sell their mother for money!
So, do we have to buy her with money now?!
Brother in law, calm down.
They have to be calculating because its not an official marriage.
I have consulted many times about this at the hospital.
How can money be involved in this?!
They are seeing it as a loss for their mother if they split up later.
Anyway, woman takes care of the man. right?
And, housework is real work,too.
So, she can't live together and do the house chores for free?
Then, he should live with a housemaid. Why does he have to live with a woman he likes?
Living together has legal standing too.
If one side dies, the other side requests their share of the asset and compensation.
So, you want to accept this contract?
We can't do that. I think this contract is solely based on their desire.
We can't settle like this.
We should meet with an attorney and get some advice.
So, you want to make a contract that is favorable to us.
We should make a contract that is less insulting and not too lopsided.
Anyway you are bartering dad and that woman with money. I can never agree to this!
You and we are different!
We want our mother position left empty.
Why did you have to butt in there like that?!
Even Mi Joo's mom wasn't saying anything. Why talk about all that nonsense!?
Honey, how can you say that?
Did you forget why I got divorced?
It was because I had an affair with you!
When I entered that restaurant, I thought I had made a mistake.
Bringing you and going there, it seemed like I was being insensitive and brazen.
I was so embarrassed in front of them.
Honey.
What did I do as a father to Mi Joo?
Until now, I only cared about myself!
Weren't we thankful to Soon Ae for treating us with dignity and to Mi Joo for growing up well?!
The fact that those people treated us respect was because
of Soon Ae and Mi Joo. -This was first time that I felt ashamed.
While I didn't know which hole my food was going down, what was it with you acting like a mother?!
If you would have stayed still. That would have been better!!
Aiyoo. That new mother was talking inappropriately.
Why did she have to talk when Mi Joo's mom was silent?
Since she raised her, wouldn't she worry about Mi Joo having a possible hard time living with us?
I should have comforted her by telling her that I will be serving her daughter.
Since she is wise and well mannered, you won't have hard time with her.
Anyway, having two mother in law is rather awkward.
Since we accepted it, let's just understand them and get over it.
We could congratulate ourselves today, right?
Thank you for being at my side without wavering.
Honestly, I did waver a bit.
I know.
If mother didn't change her mind, you were going to say that your feelings changed toward me, right?
You really knew that?
Do you how much I worried that you might say that to me?
If you would have said that, it felt like I had to let you go.
I should thank your mother once more.
For permitting our marriage before I said that to you.
We may face more difficulties in the future.
Even then, you will be at my side, right?
Ha Rim
you are promising that to me, right?
You are working really hard.
Are you feeling down?
Aren't you curious about the family introduction we had?
Ah. Why should I be curious that?
I wasn't going to feel jealous about that but
I was really jealous toward Mi Joo and Ha Rim.
They seemed really happy today.
If you are that jealous, you should meet a guy and have a family meeting too.
That's all you can say?
Sorry but I'm in no condition to make you feel better today.
Is there a problem?
Since its a family matter, I don't want to tell you.
Family matter is always a secret. Keep those secrets then. I don't want to know anymore.
Hurry up and come in.
Aigoo, what brings you two here?
Are you by yourself? Where are the kids?
They are busy these days. I don't see them these days.
Did you two fight again?
I made a mistake, Hyungnim.
Without regards to you,
I didn't want to show any side of being a mother to Mi Joo.
I didn't tell you that they decided not to live separately; I'm the one who is sorry because I didn't get to tell you.
No. I said inappropriate things.
We have nothing to say but what she said was out of real concern for Mi Joo.
Please understand us.
Song Ho Seob. Are you sick or something?
My heart is aching.
I got a heart in here you know.
You can die from suddenly maturing.
So you want me to die? When Mi Joo and Eun Joo gets married, who will hold their hands and..
So, stop talking so mature.
Hurry and take that out.
It not that much but
Use it for Mi Joo's wedding.
Its really not that much, Hyungnim.
But we did help with Byung Joo's wedding for their rental deposit.
And in regards to Mi Joo's wedding,
you take care of everything as you see fit.
Yes, Hyungnim. I won't butt in.
The money you invested in the restaurant.
We'll work hard to pay you back.
Then, you weren't going to pay? Be thankful I'm not charging you interest.
We'll pay you back since we really are thankful.
Let's go.
Hyungnim. I made a mistake. Please forgive me.
I guess Song Ho Seob was a father after all.
These are the terms that our side can give.
Living Arrangement Contract.
We tried our best to keep the decorum.
What if you say otherwise later?
We'll make the place of living (apartment) in her ownership.
Its a matter of how much the apartment will be worth.
If the two of them can live together in a place without inconvenience..
Then, shouldn't be around ( about 1000 sq. feet)?
Agreed.
Then, let's agree on this.
We should tell the two of them first.
Let's do that.
One of the term is that children shouldn't be interfering with them at their new place.
Of course we should. It would be rather unpleasant if we ran into each other.
Father,
are you okay with just living with her?
Why are you like this all of a sudden?
Did I ever say that I'll live with her?
You can be honest; I know you want to live with her.
Since you guys are against it, do you think I'll feel comfortable?
If you like her,
I want to help you to live with her for the rest of your life.
Are you sincere about that?
What is this? Are you guys giving money to help out with Mi Joo's wedding?
You should take a look at first. -Okay.
Okay, let's how much you gave.
Living Arrangement Contract
What is this? -Read it carefully.
In consideration of mutual agreements by the children of the parties,
there will be no official marriage registration.
Chung Hyun Soo will pay for the cost of the house that both will live in but the owner shall be Hong Soon Ae.
The cost of living will be the responsibility of Chung Hyun Soo.
In case of death of Chung Hyun Soo or separation from him,
the place of living,
as a compensation,
shall go to Soon Ae.
Preview
I think we were too concerned about what the children thought. We should clearly tell them.
Can't we really be together?
I want to ask somebody if we really can't be together.
Until I die, you won't get a cent!
Mother!
What are you talking about?
Why are you eyeing your mother's asset? What you are thinking is thievery.
Am I a child that was picked off the street?
This is really a coincidence, right?
You lived here?
For us, we don't need that kind of contract.
I will officially marry her.
In the end dad and I wasn't to get along.
Should both of us cut our relationship with dad?
