Good morning, Mother.
Huh, where is she? She didn’t get up yet?
Mother, are you still in bed?
No. Isn’t she in the kitchen?
No, she isn’t.
Huh? Where did she go?
What’s the fuss?
Mother isn’t home, Grandfather.
Why wouldn’t she be here? Where has she gone from morning?
Well, I don’t know. I’m worried.
Gee, I thought something big happened. Don’t worry.
A person disappeared and you say don’t worry?
Did she tell you something?
It’s obvious. She probably went to the market.
She doesn’t shop in the morning.
She asked me to buy grocery and I forgot to.
She probably couldn’t wait and went to the market.
Gee, why does she become like her father-in-law?
Everybody, don’t worry. This isn’t a thing to panic.
Everyone, go back and do your thing.
Oh, Kihoon can get up and make breakfast.
He’s still sleeping.
You have to him get up. Miran isn’t here.
Kihoon is a good cook and the first son. So I think he should do it.
I’ll make breakfast. Look for Mom now.
The eldest son of this family can’t. How dare a man works in the kitchen?
We have many women here. You women do it.
Gosh, Dongppal. So ridiculous.
This is a smart age. Why be picky about gender?
Father, I don’t think Miran went to market.
Then where did she go?
I don’t know.
You don’t know where she went. Why did you say she went to market?
I feel like she might have.
Gosh.
Mom’s gone and what are you doing? You should look for her now!
I know. Look if she left a note in a room.
Okay, Aunt.
Then call her now.
Yes, Father.
Gosh.
Why is everyone fussing? I don’t get it.
She’s not picking up, Father.
What’s going on? Call her again.
Yes, Father.
She won’t pick it up. She left home.
What?
I think she’s gone far. Her cosmetics are gone.
The luggage I gifted her is gone from her closet.
How dare she leave home? What does she take her husband for?
She dares to win her father-in-law?
You frequently told her to get out your house.
She was about to explode. So many things happened.
Giving up the finance right must’ve been fatal. Oh, nuts.
Maybe she went to a bathhouse?
I’ll go out and look for her.
Kihoon, let’s go together.
My goodness. What in the world is she thinking?
My gosh.
Kihoon.
Go look for her at places she frequents.
I’ll go to the cafe and the market first.
When you find her, call us right away.
Okay.
See, isn’t it nice to exercise like this? It’s good for prevention of osteoporosis.
Okay, I’ll come out every day.
Anyways, Dalsoo isn’t not in sight. He exercising for three days and quit.
Wait. Isn’t he Dalsoo? He must be exercising.
Dalsoo! Came to exercise?
Have you seen Miran?
She came out with you? No, I haven’t seen her.
She left home.
What the heck happened? Are you sure?
Maybe she went out somewhere.
No, she left with luggage.
What to do?
What do you mean? We should look for her.
Where did she go? Let’s go. Hurry.
Should I make scorched rice soup? You need to eat.
I don’t feel like it.
You need to take medicine though.
It’s okay.
I don’t want rice. Oh, there’s bread.
Dongpal. Dongpal, let’s eat bread. Eat bread.
Don’t you know I don’t like bread?
Gosh. Why get mad at me for Miran’s leaving?
Be quiet. Bring me cold water.
You’re throwing a fit at me now. Darn.
My.
<To my husband Dalsoo, For the past 30 years…>
Did she leave on weekend on purpose when the whole family meets?
To see what happens when she disappears.
She left because she was angry. Why’d she pick weekend for it?
It was my fault too, Aunt.
Why you?
I made her upset. I should’ve refrained myself.
Why did you have to make her upset too?
So the whole family made her upset.
Who is it at this hour? Who is it?
Hyunsook. It’s me, Miran.
Huh? Miran?
What’s up at this hour? What’s this luggage?
You left home?
Give me a cup of cold water.
Okay. Go and have seat first. Is it because of your father-in-law?
Because of Dalsoo? No. Did Geumshil upset you again?
My mother-in-law? She gives me hard time and upsets me.
Gosh, I’ll just!
Gosh, forget it. It’s nothing new.
It feels like the family is attacking to devour me. It felt suffocating so I left.
I don’t wanna hear the family’s voice and sound of their breathing.
Okay, I understand. You must be beyond yourself. Welcome.
I’ll stay as long as I want to. Please let me.
Okay. Stay without certainty? For several days?
Yeah. Why, I can’t?
Not that…
It’s Yoonhee.
Yes, Yoonhee. What is it?
Your mother-in-law? I don’t know.
Maybe she went out nearby. Yeah, don’t worry.
Thanks, Miran.
Geez.
It’s Miran. Oh no.
Do I go out and not?
Someone came?
Huh? Why are you here?
Uh. Hyunsook has a very good hot pack so I was using it…
What an excuse. Come up with better one.
I sensed it all along. But I didn’t know you frequent here like a lover.
Not a lover…
Then still a friend?
My beloved sister. Congratulate me.
I finally decided to remarry Madam Hyunsook.
Your sister’s head exploded and left home but you want congratulations?
I’m sorry, Miran.
I know you’re upset but I might as well tell you now.
I can’t approve this marriage. Absolutely oppose it.
Hey, Miran. What’s wrong with you?
You act sophisticated but you’re being a mean sister-in-law already?
What have I done so wrong?
See, Jingyu? Hyunsook is always like this.
Heck with her being my in-law. She has a bad manner toward her in-law.
Hey, Miran. It’s because we’ve known each other since youth.
Can’t even tell if I’m joking or not.
Were you joking then?
I want to let her taste the hardship of living in the in-law world.
Just wait, sister-in-law.
Gosh, you can’t do that. Miss. You’re so mean.
Jingyu, Hyunsool, remember. Keep it secret that I’m here.
That’s no problem.
Sure, sure.
I want to rest. Let me borrow a room.
Okay, Use Yoonhee’s room. I changed her bedsheet to spring color.
Thanks, Hyunsook. If you have fruit juice, bring it to the room.
Huh? Oh, yes, yes. Yes, Miss.
Okay, have a good rest.
Do it, do it.
She packed up her luggage so she definitely left home.
Why would Miran leave home?
You really don’t know why, Father? Too many things happened for her.
It’s not only a thing or two. I’d have run away too.
I don’t think she went anywhere near.
Right. She’s nowhere to be found.
Why is everyone so serious? Can’t she go out for a while?
I think everyone is too serious. She could’ve gone to see a movie.
She could be eating with a friend. She could do all that.
So what I mean is… Fine, if that’s not the case.
Stepmother. You shouldn’t talk so lightly, like jokingly.
When we don’t know where she’s gone to.
Why get upset at me? I’m saying we should wait.
Let us think of all the possibilities.
Right, she’s right about that.
Have you heard Miran saying anything last night?
She didn’t say anything.
Dalsoo, did something happen? Did you make a trouble again?
What trouble? I never made any trouble.
She probably went out for fresh air. She’ll return when she’s calmed down.
She won’t come back even if we look for her. Let’s just wait.
How do you know that?
Why’d she want to see the people who made her explode?
Even if I don’t point it out, you know who you are.
It’s all my fault.
Dad, it’s my fault.
No, it’s my fault. I didn’t fulfill my duty as a daughter-in-law.
Nothing will happen, right?
Sweetie, have you called your mother?
Yes, but she doesn’t know.
Then Minji, call your uncle.
Even if she’s upset, she’d never contact Uncle.
Right, she won’t tell him of her trouble.
Minji, call Jisuk.
Dad, she couldn’t have gone to Jisuk.
Right, probably not.
She’d left home before and now again. She’s gotten fun out of it.
Huh? Has she left home before?
My gosh, but she looks decent. Gosh, she must have some temper.
No! My gosh. Father gave her a hard time back then too.
You say she’s gotten fun out of it? She just stayed at my house back then.
Where did Miran go? It’s a mystery, mystery.
But Father didn’t eat yet. Isn’t this too much?
You guys only worry about Miran and don’t even think about feeding Father.
Elders get weak when they skip even one meal.
Please make the meal, Jeongsook.
Okay, Dalsoo.
It’s okay. I can eat later so let me know when she calls.
I’m angry and upset but I can still eat.
You’re too stressed out.
I’m eating the food you prepared for me. Thanks.
I’m so happy you eat well. Yeah, this one here.
Eat this. This, this.
Jingyu, I feel like I’m at Mom’s house.
Think of here as Mom’s house. It’s like Mom’s house, right?
Sure, you said it right. Yes, it is Mom’s house.
I’m reminded of Mom. I think she felt sad whenever I went to her house.
She prepared a table full of food and didn’t let anyone touch it.
She told I could only eat it.
Miran.
Why didn’t I know back then?
What it means to live as a man’s wife.
Who knew how hard it’d be to live as a daughter-in-law of a family…
Miran. Let’s go to your mom’s grave. As Jingyu’s wife, I need to say hi to her.
Yes, that sounds good. Might as well, let’s go.
I miss Mom. Will you go with me?
Yes, I will. Hurry up and eat. Eat a lot.
Oh, my heart. Yes, let’s eat. Let’s eat and go.
Your excellent ability was the top agenda during the executive meeting.
Let’s prepare and send the new business investment plan to AJ.
Really? I wasn’t expecting it but thank you.
You’re welcome. It’s because you worked hard.
Working every day without a day off. You’re a next generation global leader.
The company is growing big thanks to you.
I’ll make into a global health company.
You can do it well. Your future depends on the AJ’s investment so succeed.
I should.
Grandma treats well me like she used to but I must be lacking.
Why do you think that way?
I feel a wall. A very big wall.
It might be because of the anniversary of Mom’s death coming up.
You look relaxed in a long while.
Yeah. I don’t want to think about anything.
Right. Stay relaxed while you’re here.
Happiness doesn’t seem a big deal but it’s hard to obtain.
Happiness children give isn’t much but I sacrificed so much for the family.
The result I got is sad. My family gives me harder times.
What to do when you say that?
I said mean things to you and Kihoon because of my daughter.
But I wonder if I could’ve survived without Yoonhee.
At least stop worrying about Kihoon.
All parents feel the same way.
Kids make us laugh and give joy but they give more headaches.
We just forget that they do.
We live our lives worrying about our kids.
Kids will have hard times without me.
Worrying about kids again. Think only about yourself.
Should I?
Sure. You’re so clueless.
Nice to have many women. Soojeong, eat grapes.
Grandma, boil me some eggs.
Ask Aunt to do it.
I have to go home.
Oh no, Soojeong.
Grandmother, we don’t have eggs. We need green onions and beef too.
Why do we lack so much? She left without filling them up.
The one who manages the household should fill up the refrigerator.
I’ll buy it tomorrow.
Didn’t you say ‘tomorrow’ yesterday too?
Mother will come at night, won’t she?
She won’t.
Miran is alright, isn’t she?
Of course, Dalsoo. Let’s assume she’s doing fine.
Dad, think that no news is good news.
Sad to think that she might be crying somewhere.
Our family’s done very wrong to her this time.
You too. And if you’ve decided to become a chef, try your best.
Don’t make any trouble, Dalsoo.
Okay.
Eat, Dalsoo.
It’s well cooked. It’s nice meat so eat now.
Eat a lot for strength and scold Miran.
Missus, has she called yet?
Don’t worry. She has built up resentment so she has to relieve it first.
Seems like you know where she is but pretend you don’t know.
No. She’ll return for kids’ sake. She treats her family greatly.
Right. But that family treated her terribly. Eat, Dalsoo.
Oh, oh. So scary, scary.
I’m back.
You came.
James, come here.
Dad, Mom!
Have you had fun?
Nice to see you two come together. You worked hard even on weekend.
Was it hard to babysit James?
No, I must be very blessed with a grandson. My day is fun and I’m happy.
I don’t want time to pass.
You have many other blessings.
Sure. I sure am a blessed old woman. Wash James.
Let’s go, James.
Dongpal, is go game fun?
Yeah, I can get focused.
Dongpal, shall we play hwatu?
I don’t know how.
You don’t know? You don’t know how to play hwatu?
I don’t play just any game.
We’re not in a good mood so how about drinking?
No, I usually don’t drink.
What? This is so fun. You told me you’ll make me happy.
Then shall we go outside and have some fresh air?
Miran isn’t back so go where? We should wait.
It’s not your fault but you provided the cause.
Big deal. How can she leave home because I didn’t buy grocery?
Wait until she returns. I’ll chastise her severely.
Geez.
Everybody corners me now. However, you shouldn’t be like this.
Who brought me here when I was doing fine on my own?
Darn! I had more fun living alone. So irritating.
Gee.
What do you need, Ms. Chairwoman?
You can’t accept me yet.
I’m sorry.
It’s because of your mom, right?
I think I should’ve never let her go. Then she’d have not died.
I’m sorry that I thought you could easily forget. I didn’t act my age.
I feel guilty about making my late mom and Jisuk suffer so much.
Even if I was abandoned like that, I should’ve never left the people I love.
I’m sorry, Hayoung.
Whenever you look happy with James, I’m reminded of my mom.
The day after tomorrow is my mom’s anniversary of her death.
I’ll wait until you feel comfortable. Please forgive me.
My beloved wife, please come back. I won’t do it again. Trust me this time.
Miran, you know how I feel.
Miran, don’t go back even if Dalsoo seduces you. See the end of it.
That way, Yoonhee will be comfortable. Hey!
I know Dalsoo is all talks. But Father is…
Gosh, look at you being soft again.
No.
Of course you are. You’re too nice. My gosh.
Father, I’m back.
Hi, you’re late.
Miran didn’t call yet, right?
No, not yet. She hasn’t called you either?
No, Father. Good night.
Good night, Grandpa.
Okay.
I’m sorry, honey. Always miserable because of me.
I’m sorry, Miran. Can’t you be merciful just this time?
Please come back.
Are you crying, Dad?
No, why would I cry?
It’s okay, Dad. Mom will come back when her mind clears up.
Okay. My daughter, thanks.
Oh gosh.
Where’s Miran, huh? Where’s Miran?
Oh, she went somewhere. Darn! Why do you wake me up?
Dongpal, don’t bother me and go to sleep now.
Miran, Miran. Where are you?
Where did you go, Miran?
Miran.
Miran. Miran.
Miran. Miran!
Miran. Miran.
Miran.
Miran. Miran.
MIran. Miran.
Miran. Miran.
