That's why I'm saying I'm leaving!
And what will that solve? Huh?
You broke your children's hearts.
So you should take responsibility.
But instead, you're trying to run away again.
Well then, what do you want me to do?
Just stay here this time, okay?
No matter what anyone says,
no matter what happens, stay with your kids.
No. I'm leaving this house.
I can't live here when you're gone!
I'm leaving!
Oh!
Why are you being so stupid?
I'm letting you have this,
this amazing happiness, I'm giving it to you!
I'm letting you be the happiest man on earth!
Can't you understand what I'm saying?
Thanks.
You don't know how good our children are.
They're acting furious and angry,
but inside, they're so warm and kind.
I do know that.
Do you know what happiness is?
Have you ever felt grateful about being born?
I have. So?
I felt it when Dongseok got married.
I felt it when Dongtak's son was born.
I felt it when I drank with my brothers.
I feel it every morning when I see Dongok.
I feel it whenever Donghui's twins
follow me around, calling me "grandpa."
Who do you think I am, Soshim?
So it makes you happy to live with your kids.
Doesn't it make you happier than
when you were chasing around other women?
How can you say that?
So? What are you saying?
If it's all so great, you should stay.
Why would you let me have this?
Because you're their father.
I got to enjoy that happiness thanks to you.
What?
If not for you, how could I have such great kids?
How could I have met such a fine father-in-law?
How else could I have met
such loving brothers-in-law?
I am so grateful to you because of that.
I couldn't believe my misfortune at first,
but I met Yeongchun, and a loving sister,
and my handsome son Donghui because of you.
I'm so grateful to you for them.
That's why I'm giving them to you.
I can't believe you...
Why don't you just curse me?
Swear and spit at me, why don't you?
But truthfully, I can't go back to
a husband-and-wife relationship with you.
I don't want that, and that's why I'm leaving.
Soshim...
But you should stay here.
Stay here and be a father for them.
You broke your kids' hearts,
so do your best to mend them.
Do you understand, Mr. Kang Taeseop?
Oh, it's disgusting.
Oh, I'm disgusted.
Is your mom really a human being?
Is she a human being?
What are you talking about?
She's not. Your mom's not human.
What are you talking about?
I'm not coming here again.
I'll never see your mom again, either.
I'll never see her again!
Yeongchun!
What's wrong with Yeongchun?
I know. What's going on?
Haewon, what is it?
I said I understood your mother.
I'm taking that back.
Bring me the divorce papers.
I'll stamp them right now.
And...
I'm the one who's leaving this house.
Episode 48
What is it? What's wrong?
Did my mom hit you?
Then why did you say those things?
She's not human? Why would you say that?
Why won't you see my mom again?
What kind of person is your mom?
What kind of person is she to you?
What are you talking about?
I thought I knew your mom very well.
I thought I knew her better than anyone...
But I don't know her at all.
Out of the blue...
Go ask your mom why I'm acting like this.
Donghui, what's this? Huh?
Your father's leaving after the divorce?
What?
I can't believe how your mom's acting.
Taeseop, what is this?
She says she loves living with you all,
but that she's doing this for me.
She wants to create a place for me,
and that's why she's leaving this house.
If she hates me, she should kick me out.
But she wants me to stay so she can leave.
I'm not worth it.
After everything I've done to her...
I did awful things to her and broke her heart.
But since I'm your father,
she's letting me have all the happiness.
That's enough.
Is what he said true?
So you lied to us and told us you were
sick and tired of being our mom
so that this man could have it all?
Your father is a changed man.
He's not the same man I used to know.
He'll be a good father to you from now on,
and he'll be a great grandfather, too.
We're talking about you, not him.
Is it really for him, so he can be a father,
and not for you, for your own happiness?
You're abandoning us for another person?
That's not true. Why would I abandon you?
How could I dare abandon you?
If you don't want to be with him, kick him out.
Ssangshik...
That's right.
Even if you kicked Taeseop out,
nobody here would say anything to you.
I'm leaving.
That's why I said I'm leaving.
Oh, please stop. Why are you doing this?
I want to do this. I made my decision.
So why are you arguing with me?
Are you babies who'll die without your mom?
What will you do when I die?
Mom!
Do what you want, mother.
If that's your decision, if you want that,
then do it.
Dongseok.
Father, you stay and let mother leave.
I told you I would take care of you.
Kang Dongseok!
Mom!
So when are you planning on leaving?
How could Dongseok say that to his mom?
"When are you planning on leaving?"
I felt bad about punching him until just now,
but I shouldn't have. That rude jerk.
You punched Dongseok?
Oh, you punch people? Your own nephew?
Oh, are you a savage?
Did you just say savage?
Why do you think this gentle soul
punched him?
If he's gentle, everyone in the world is gentle.
If you don't provoke me, I'm gentle!
Still, how could an uncle punch his nephew?
Oh, I feel sick.
I must be under a lot of stress right now.
Why do I feel like throwing up?
Are you okay, Myeongnan?
Are you pregnant?
Are you kidding me?
But isn't Soshim so very thoughtful?
I almost cried because I was so touched.
What did Taeseop do to deserve her?
That wasn't touching!
I had to try very hard not to scream.
What about Soshim's life?
Let go of me!
Calm down! I don't want you beating him up.
Why can't I beat him up?
He deserves it!
But he's a prosecutor.
You know what happens
if you hit a prosecutor!
He's my brother before he's a prosecutor!
I'm trying to teach my insolent brother a lesson,
so what's wrong with that?
There's nothing wrong with that.
If he deserves it, you should beat him up.
I'm furious at myself for not doing that
because of my prior offenses!
You're not furious at yourself!
I said no violence!
If someone deserves it, why not?
Misuk, we're not savages living by instinct.
We're rational, civilized people.
Let go of me!
Dongseok isn't getting away with this.
Dongtak!
Where's Dongseok?
Tonight was pretty shocking for you, too?
Did he go to mom's room?
Hey, Kang Dongseok!
Stop that.
What?
Dongtak!
I said stop it. Don't bother Kang Dongseok.
What? You're siding with him right now?
Stop causing trouble and stay quiet.
Go back to your house.
What?
You're siding with him after what he said?
What he said made sense.
She said she's leaving, so he asked when!
How dare you...
Donghui!
Stop it. Kang Dongseok did nothing wrong.
Haeju, he's acting weird, right?
Yes!
Donghui, did Dongseok bribe you?
Dongwon hasn't been sleeping well lately,
and he just fell asleep right now.
If you keep this up and wake Dongwon up,
I'm going to wake San up, too!
Oh, my...
Dongtak, moving back home might be
a bit humiliating, but let's do it.
Mom, I think I'm going to become a star!
I really have a good feeling about it!
I can provide a good life for you.
I'll make you a star's mom!
So don't rush into getting a divorce
or leaving this house! Give it more time, okay?
Don't listen to whatever Dongseok says!
Dongtak, that's enough.
Don't get sad! Don't get hurt!
Just rely on your eldest son! Please!
I'll take him home and come back for San.
Mom! You know I love you, don't you?
This is the divorce agreement.
And this is your...
Why are you doing this?
We were going to help her with her divorce.
But that was...
You can stamp next to your names.
Give it back.
Why are you in such a hurry?
We can take our time and do this tomorrow.
She's made up her mind, so why bother?
I have so much work at the office.
I have to finish this so I can focus on that.
Haewon.
What happened to your lip?
You don't need to know that.
How can you say that to your mother?
Why don't you stay with Yeongchun for now?
Dongseok!
If you stay here, the uncles or Dongtak
might make you miserable.
It's better to be separated from father...
Stop it, Kang Dongseok!
For the divorce to go through.
Okay, I understand.
Mother!
Haewon, give that to me.
Hurry!
Give it to me.
Grandpa?
Shh!
Where are you going, grandpa?
Don't tell your dad. Go back to sleep.
Okay.
Dad, dad!
Wake up.
Why? What time is it?
It's 4:41 in the morning.
It's not time to wake up yet.
I only fell asleep just now.
Come here, my son.
Let's sleep. Let's just sleep.
Dad...
Grandpa just left.
Oh, okay.
What?
Dongwon!
Why were you sleeping here?
Grandpa left the house.
Dad went after grandpa.
So things got crazy, and I couldn't sleep.
Are you with your father right now?
Yes, I am.
Oh, that's a relief.
Dongwon said your father left the house.
I was so shocked.
He didn't. He was just going outside.
Dongwon misunderstood.
Okay, I see.
Bring him home safely.
I will.
Where are you trying to go?
The bathroom.
Then why take your bag?
Fine. I was running away.
I'm trying to disappear forever. So what?
Wasn't it you who wanted me gone the most?
You should be partying, not stopping me!
Do I owe you money?
Yes.
You borrowed $60 and never paid me back.
You stopped me because of that?
Fine. I'll pay you back before I leave.
You're supposed to be my son!
Mister.
What?
How can you call your father "mister"?
Why did you leave in the middle of the night?
What?
Mom told you to stay at home,
Kang Dongseok said he'd take care of you,
and things are much better at home,
so why are you running away?
Because I was afraid you would blame me
for making your mom leave.
So you'll stay if I don't blame you?
No, that'd make me want to leave even more.
Why is that?
Oh, man!
Why are you and Dongseok doing this to me?
Go back to how you used to treat me.
When you treat me so well,
I get really scared.
So you do have a conscience.
Of course I do!
I don't have much, but I have a conscience.
So please let me leave.
I don't deserve to stay with you.
Why are you following me?
Haewon knows that I'm with you,
so Kang Dongseok will kill me if I lose you.
I've done so many horrible things,
I can't stay with you guys.
I know you've done horrible things.
If I told you one of them, you'd kill me.
Oh, mister, who do you think I am?
I'm not that crazy.
Yes, you'd definitely kill me.
Whoa! You don't even know your own son.
You may think I'm that kind of person,
but my mom didn't raise me like that.
Tell me what it is, then.
Fine.
I wasn't planning on hiding it from you.
Even if you beat me to death,
I was going to tell you before I left.
If you promise to let me go, I'll tell you.
Tell me.
That con man, Han Bin...
Of course I didn't know he was a con man,
but I introduced him to your mom.
I thought he was a good man,
and I did it for Yeongchun's happiness.
But anyway, I did a terrible thing to the woman
who gave birth to my child.
I'm sorry, Donghui.
Hello.
So I told that woman not to cut in.
I told her to get in line like everyone else.
And some people even applauded.
But you said that woman was big and scary.
You weren't afraid?
A little bit.
But...
Dr. Wujin told me I'm a brave person.
I say that to myself, and I'm not as scared.
Good for you.
You can take care of yourself without mom.
I won't have to worry about you anymore.
Right. You don't have to worry.
Dongok.
Yes.
You're a smart girl, and you have Dr. Wujin.
So you'll be fine without mom, right?
Yes.
The contract and the firm registration?
Here they are.
We can charge him with forgery, attepted fraud,
and fraudulent use of a forged document.
When is Choi Seongjun being subpoenaed?
The day after tomorrow at 3:00 p.m.
Excuse me.
Hi.
Your mother is packing her things right now.
Like you suggested,
she's going to Yeongchun's place.
Are you glad it turned out how you wanted?
Are you happy now?
What are you doing?
I'm hiding mother's shoes.
Haewon, why are you doing this?
What's wrong with you?
You told me to leave things to you and go.
That was when I thought you were leaving
because you were tired of everyone.
Didn't you hear what I said last night?
I told you to give me a bit more time.
I'm sorry, mother.
I just don't think this is right.
You leaving this way is not right!
What are you doing home at this hour?
I came to pick up mother.
Are you really out of your mind?
Hey, Dongseok!
Do you want me to kick your butt?
Give me mother's bag.
Don't do this.
I understand how you feel, but don't do this.
Give it to me.
I said don't do this!
Give it!
No! I won't!
Haewon!
I said I won't give it to you!
No, Dongseok.
If you send your mother off like this,
both you and your mother will regret it.
I won't regret it.
I'll never regret it, so give it to me!
Oh, kids.
What's all this?
This is a picture Donghui and Dongok drew.
This is a flyer with my picture.
These are the letters we wrote to mom.
And this is...
What?
Mom!
You still kept all these?
But you can't read.
Leave them. I'm going to learn how to read.
Grand Prize, Kang Dongseok
Kang Dongseok!
Stop lying, why don't you?
Stop lying
and tell your mother you wanted to stop her.
Tell her you really wanted to stop her,
but since she wanted this,
since you want her to be happy,
you decided to help her,
despite everyone turning against you.
Tell her you were going to help her leave,
even though it made everyone hate you.
Ask her why she stabbed you in the back.
Tell her this is wrong.
That's enough. Stop it.
Tell her you're angry at her
because she's only thinking of your father.
Tell her that it's making you furious,
and that's why you're acting like a child.
Haewon!
Tell her your heart is broken
and that you're screaming inside
because she's being a fool,
only thinking about other people's happiness!
Tell her that's why you're acting this way!
Let's go, mother.
Mother, you tell him, too.
Tell him you understand him.
That you do, but this is all you can do.
That you're really sorry.
Dongseok...
Mom is going to tell you
a very long story. Will you listen?
Should I talk? Can I start now?
Cut!
What? Did I make a mistake?
One month later
Aunt, that was your tenth bad take!
No way. Wasn't it the eighth one?
Stop saying, "Should I talk? Do I start?"
I said you should just start.
Okay. I'll be careful and just start.
And...
Stop swallowing like this.
I didn't swallow like that. I just swallowed.
It's just that I'm nervous.
Why should you be nervous?
It's just our homework, so relax.
She shouldn't relax. She should be nervous.
Okay, okay.
I will relax or get nervous.
Roll the camera.
Cue!
Family talent show, UCC.
Good afternoon.
I'm Dongju and Dongwon's aunt, Cha Haewon.
My special talent is...
Ta-da!
It's magic!
What's this? King of spades. It's black.
Aunt will transform this.
One, two, three!
Queen of hearts!
Oh, what should I transform this into?
Okay!
Ta-da! It's a rose!
Ta-da! This is an empty shopping bag.
Did you see it? Did you check it?
Aunt will give you a present.
What's inside?
It's a lollipop!
Whoa!
Ta-da!
Dongju's lollipop!
Whoa! Incredible!
Dongwon's gum!
Whoa!
Aunt, you're the best! You're amazing!
I was a famous magician in Gyeongju.
Teach me some magic tricks!
Shall I?
Show us more. I want to brag to my friends.
Should I show you a few more?
Yes!
Okay. Watch carefully.
I have laundry on the stove!
I'll show you more later.
I bet five cards she burned the laundry.
She burned the laundry, and she'll say,
"Oh, Cha Haewon! You're such an idiot! An idiot!"
I bet everything I own on that.
Cha Haewon! You're such an idiot! An idiot!
Haewon!
What's that?
You burned laundry again?
Uh, yes...
Oh, boy.
What were you doing?
I know. What's wrong with me?
Where'd you put the bulgogi from yesterday?
Huh?
I thought I saw it in a bowl in here.
It's all gone already.
What? Who ate it?
You ate it last night, as a late-night snack.
Me? No way!
You're right. I ate it.
Why are you eating so much these days?
You had two bowls of cold noodles for lunch.
Oh! Is it...
I'm angry. Stress-related overeating!
Huh?
Oh, man!
Misuk is so weird. She always argues with me!
I think she feels threatened by me.
Are you okay?
Oh, I don't know why she does that to me.
Whenever I say anything, she gets...
Haewon! Haewon, are you home?
Oh, hello, aunt.
What's wrong with your aunt Myeongnan?
Shh!
The milk's expiration date was yesterday,
and she attacked me in front of everyone,
saying, "Is this how you do business?" Whoa!
Aunt.
Does she want me to go out of business?
We're family! She could've told me later.
She doesn't have an ounce of consideration...
She's inside.
I know. I wanted her to hear it.
Venting to you made me feel better.
Thank you for listening.
Haewon!
Yes, Dongok!
The clinic's nurse went
like this and asked me,
"You there, are you really Dr. Min's girlfriend?"
She called you, "You there?"
- Yes! / - Who does she think she is?
So, what did you say?
So I stared at her like this.
Yes?
"Yes, I am.
I am Dr. Wujin's girlfriend.
We are seeing each other." I did well, right?
Good job, Dongok! Good for you!
- But Dongok... / - Yes?
If you meet that girl, I mean that nurse,
and she says something like that again...
Yes, if she does?
Make an angry face like this!
Angry face!
Lower your eyes.
"Mess with my man, and you die."
Die?
No, no!
You're not going to kill her.
You're just protecting your boyfriend.
She might a seductress.
Think about this, Dongok.
If that nurse goes to Dr. Wujin and goes,
"Ho, ho, ho," laughing like this,
tapping his shoulder, saying,
"Dr. Wujin, I really like you!"
Then what? Would you feel good?
No, I wouldn't feel good.
If she goes, "Dr. Wujin, take me to dinner!"
What would you do?
You would feel really bad, right?
Yes.
So you have to tell her not to mess with you!
Again!
"Mess with my man, and you die!"
Mess with my man, and you die!
But is it okay to be this rude to a stranger?
Should I say, "You die, ma'am?"
That won't scare her!
Oh, you're too nice for your own good.
Oh, Dongok, excuse me.
Hi, Donghui.
Donghui?
Did you help my son with that UCC thing?
Yes, I burned the laundry doing that.
I gave it everything I've got.
Dongju keeps asking to get a perm,
but don't ever let her.
Okay.
Straight hair looks great on her, so don't.
Okay, okay.
No matter how hard she begs, don't give in.
Haewon?
Hello? Haewon?
I know! I got it, Donghui.
I'm Dongwon's aunt, not her mom!
What?
When are you getting married?
Why aren't you bringing your girlfriend over?
Did you two break up? Did she dump you?
Haewon!
I wasn't going to say this,
but your nagging is making my ears bleed!
So please get married and tell your wife
to help Dongju and Dongwon with homework,
discuss Dongju's perm with her,
and prepare the twins' meals
and take them to the bathhouse!
And leave your sister-in-law alone!
Kang Donghui, you think I'm not busy?
I'm Kang Dongseok's wife, not yours!
Oh, it's exhausting.
Haewon, I need to see you.
Oh, yes, uncle.
When did I ever nag?
Wow, Cha Haewon, I'll talk to you at home.
It's been a while, Miss Kim.
It's been a while, Mr. Kang.
Goodbye.
I can't believe this!
How could you do this to me?
How could you not call for a whole month?
What? You don't think that's a problem?
What about you?
Why didn't you call me?
What?
You said you'd think about it and let me know.
I was waiting for your answer. So?
But...
How could you just wait and do nothing?
Why didn't you call and ask for my answer?
Weren't you even frustrated?
What if I had married someone else?
Is she the one?
He came every day for a month and asked me
to call him if there was a girl
having chicken and beer alone.
Is she the girl you were looking for?
Yes.
So you finally met her.
Congratulations.
Where did you go for a month?
How come you never came here?
Were you at a chicken farm?
I've been going on blind dates.
My mom had to drag me the first time,
but after that, I went willingly.
I asked everyone to set me up on blind dates,
so I was busy meeting men for a month.
So that's why you never came to the restaurant.
Yes.
I decided to erase you from my memory
and meet someone 100 times more handsome
and 1,000 times nicer, and get married.
So? Did you find a good guy?
If I had, would I be here?
Would I have these dark circles under my eyes
and go around looking so shabby if I had?
Yes, you do look very shabby.
When's the last time you washed your hair?
Did you at least wash your face?
What?
You have sleep gunk in your eye.
Hey!
I thought I was dying.
From missing you so much
during the month we were apart.
From worrying that we were breaking up.
And from feeling guilty about
having treated you so badly.
Kang Donghui...
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry!
I missed you to death, too.
Slow down. Eat slowly.
You'll get sick and end up in the hospital.
I can even eat rocks, so it's okay.
Didn't you say you had questions?
Oh, right.
Presents for Dongok's family
What does your grandmother like?
Our grandmother?
The ends of rice rolls!
What?
The two ends of rice rolls.
That's our grandma's favorite.
She only eats those, not the pretty pieces.
Seriously, seriously.
Grandma eats those because she wants to give
the nice, pretty ones to us.
Yes, I think Dongju is right about that.
Fine! You win!
Our grandma likes...
Oh! Fish heads!
She really loves fish heads! She does!
She only eats the heads of roasted fish.
That's because she wants us to eat the meat.
Oh, man! You're such a baby!
Fine! You win! You know everything!
Hey, stop fighting, you two.
Did you tell your dad about me?
Yes! We told him aunt Dongok's boyfriend
is really nice to us and really, really likes her.
We said that.
Dongju, you're the best.
But it's the truth.
Why are you scared of our dad?
No! I'm not scared.
I just want us to be friends.
I want him to like me.
Oh, you can be honest with us.
Why? What are we?
When you marry our aunt, you'll be our uncle!
You know that.
You're a genius, a genius!
Wow, what else do you want to eat?
I'll buy you anything!
Mess with my man, and you die.
Dr. Wujin!
You were thinking about me, right?
How did you know?
How do you think?
I was thinking about you, too.
Are you finished with work?
Um...
I can come pick you up in a while, right?
I'm almost finished.
By the way, Dr. Wujin...
Yes?
Don't smile like that.
What do you mean?
Don't smile like that for other people.
Why not?
Well, actually...
Anyway, don't smile like that to that nurse!
Do you hate it when I smile at other women?
Are you jealous?
Oh, I'm happy.
I'm so happy because you're jealous.
Don't smile so handsomely, Dr. Wujin!
Let's go inside, grandmother!
The producer and everyone are waiting!
No! Why should I go in there?
Is it because of yesterday's fight?
We didn't fight!
I just talked to your dad as an adult.
Exactly!
You "talk" to my dad every other day!
Is it because of your "talk" with my dad?
Why does your dad always argue with me?
He changed. He wasn't like that before.
Is it because he's gotten a tiny bit famous?
You know better than anyone he's not like that.
What?
What if the twins tease me after watching it?
They'll say you hate my dad so much,
you didn't participate.
They gossip all the time.
It'll really hurt my pride if that happens.
Who cares if they do say that?
Okay then. We'll do it by ourselves.
Mul!
Can they wait until
I get my hair and makeup done
and pick out my outfit?
Best of the Best: I'm a Fake The winner is Kang Dongtak!
When my dad is on, it's game over!
The best of the best is Kang Dongtak
San, you have to root for daddy.
Mul, does this look okay?
- Good? / - Yes.
Mul, straighten your shirt.
You should've told me about the outfit.
I would've changed my hair and makeup.
But you left saying you didn't want to be on.
You're welcome to take it off.
I didn't say I was going to take it off.
Anyway, is it just the two of them?
Why is the camera so small?
- That's it? / - Mom!
Oh, my grumpy mother-in-law's at it again.
Does my mother-in-law have to be included?
No, she doesn't.
This is for the Chuseok Special,
so there's no need to be nervous.
We'll start in five minutes.
Five minutes?
Mother, would you like to go stand there?
What?
Yes, Dongtak has to win the best of the best.
Let's only have people here
who sincerely support him.
Haeju, you...
I second that!
Just let Dongwon and Dongju tease me.
Uncle Won, join us!
Huh? Me?
Yes, Won, come here. You should join us.
It's okay. It's only for family.
You're family, too!
Dongtak...
Yes! Won, you're family!
You were with us from the start.
I have a shirt for you here. Go and change.
Haeju...
Uncle Won, go change and sit by me.
Okay, Mul.
Mother, why are you still sitting there?
Huh?
No, I want to be in the clip, too!
I'm not moving.
But does he have to be in it? He's not family.
While Dongtak delivers his lines,
the rest of you can smile and look natural.
Okay.
The camera's rolling.
So handsome, so handsome, so handsome.
The best of the best is Kang Dongtak!
Hyojeong, I'm on TV!
Cut!
- Mom! / - Mother.
- Grandmother! / - Mrs. Lee...
Yeongchun.
Oh, Dongseok, hi.
She started dozing the moment she sat down.
She even brought me homemade side dishes.
She's gotten much better.
She also brought pickled plums,
but I'm sure those were store-bought.
They were far more delicious than the others.
Go sit down. I'll bring you a cold drink.
Haewon.
Huh?
What are you doing?
I'm on a trip.
With whom?
Who's with you?
You're with your husband?
Yes...
Are you with Kang Dongseok?
Who is it, then?
Dongseok!
Who did you go on a trip with?
Huh?
- Yes, mother. / - Yes, father.
What?
