Why'd you do it?
How could you tell me he was dead when he was alive and well?
Who gave you the right? He's my son, not yours.
And I'm your mother.
Your happiness is more important to me than that child.
It was so clear to me that your life would be ruined.
I couldn't just stand by and do nothing.
My happiness?
Not once since I thought he died was I ever grateful to be alive.
I cursed every day I was alive, wishing I could trade my life for his.
I was more dead than alive.
All this time, I had no idea.
After all this time, turns out he was alive and well.
Every year I would visit that lake.
Can you even imagine how I felt?
I knew.
And I was all the more sure that I did the right thing.
Thanks to me, you spent one day out of the year in tears.
If I hadn't done what I did, you would've spent every day in tears.
Don't. Please.
I don't blame you if you don't consider me your mother anymore.
Go ahead and hate me for the rest of your life.
If I had to make the same decision, I wouldn't change a thing I did.
Even if it would kill me?
You didn't just kill off my baby.
I died that day, too.
How could you even smile at me after what you did?
How could you face me every day?
It's frightening. You disgust me.
Stop already. That's enough.
Get out. Now!
- Dad. - You...
You're no different from your mother.
You're hurting her right now because of your child, same as she did.
You're so blinded right now, you can't see your mother's pain.
We don't need a daughter like you.
Get out. Get out this instant!
Sis, calm down. You can't leave like this.
- Sis! - Eun-young!
- Eun-young... - Dad.
Hurts a lot...right?
Like your heart's being shredded to pieces.
Your mother's lived with that pain for five years now.
Take a look at this.
She scrimped and scraped every penny while we all called her greedy and cheap.
But this is where all that money went.
I had no idea.
I always yelled at her for stashing away money.
I'm not tell you to forgive her.
Even so... I can't help thinking...
She deserves a lot of pity.
That's all I ask you to consider.
It's freezing. Why are you sitting outside?
Just 'cause.
Hong-jin, come with me.
Sure, okay.
Why didn't I recognize you... when you're so precious?
You were right in front of me... and I never realized it.
Lady, you crying?
Nope.
My, your hands are cold. You feel cold?
I'm not cold.
You're not? But your hands are so cold.
What a strong, healthy boy you are.
As long as he's alive and well, it's all good.
Pooky bear?
Why the cutesy act? You're scaring me.
I've been thinking.
About what?
Let's adopt Bi-an officially.
What am I going to wear tomorrow?
He'll just be our son on paper.
Let's see here. Sweetums, I need a new wardrobe.
Sure thing, you got it. Anything you want to buy, it's yours.
It won't cause any problems, I swear.
Can I buy some ties, too?
Go right ahead!
Never mind, no need to buy all that.
Gee, I'm tired. Going to bed. I'm gonna knock right out.
There we go, that feels good.
Be like that, you bum.
Think I'm an idiot? That's like signing a slave contract.
I plan to live like a feather, light and free to fly with the wind.
Oh yeah, that feels good.
You're late.
What's the matter?
Eun-young?
Eun-young. Eun-young! Wake up!
Eun-young, open your eyes. Eun-young. Eun-young!
Guys, is Eun-young almost home?
Is she almost...
Almost home...
Hyeong-woo, it's past your bedtime. Time to go to sleep.
Hyeong-woo?
I am not sleepy.
- Do as I say. - I am not sleepy.
Yes, hello?
No, Eun-young's not with me. I haven't spoken to her all day.
She's not home yet?
Okay, I'll call her. Bye.
- Hello? - Isn't this Seo Eun-young's phone?
This is Hanguk Hospital's ER.
No, she doesn't seem to have a guardian with her.
Eun-young. Eun-young!
Um, excuse me? Where did the woman lying here go?
She was here a moment ago.
Sweetie.
Uh, how'd you find out?
I heard Eun-young was here. What brings you here?
I brought her here.
- You did? - Yeah.
She fainted in front of me as I was leaving Hyeong-woo's house.
But Hyeong-woo's mother didn't seem to know.
I didn't have the chance yet to call her.
Yeah, I didn't call her yet either.
I didn't want to put Eun-young in the spot, just in case.
Yeah.
- Where's Eun-young? - I'm not sure.
I left her unattended for a sec and she disappeared.
I'm sorry I'm late.
What's wrong? Why do you look so sick?
Did something happen?
No, nothing. I'll be heading up then.
Yeah, go on up. We'll talk later.
I'm sorry. And good night.
Fishies do not sleep.
Hyeong-woo is also not sleepy.
Hi, Eun-young.
Why haven't you gone to bed yet?
Fishies do not sleep.
- Hyeong-woo is also not sleepy. - But I'm very sleepy.
May I go to bed?
- Yes. - Go to bed soon.
It's late. Can't you do it tomorrow?
I have a lot to do. Tomorrow we sign officially with Dodo.
- Okay, then I'm off to bed. - Um, sweetie?
Good night.
- Don't strain yourself. - I won't.
You guys are married now.
Um...
A bad husband sleeps comfortably in the bed while his wife sleeps on the floor.
- Oh, good morning, ma'am. - You, too.
- Where's Eun-young? - Is she okay?
She hasn't come down yet.
Hmm, good morning. What brings you to the 2nd floor?
Eun-young's not up yet.
Maybe she overslept. She came home late last night.
Hyeong-woo!
Mom, Eun-young is sick.
You should've come get me. Call Dr. Han. Hurry.
I'm going.
A husband takes care of his wife when she is sick.
That's right. You did well.
I see.
I understand. Bye.
I called to see if Eun-young made it home okay.
Well, did she?
Yeah, but she's pretty sick. The doctor's over.
I see.
You should've called me from the start. She probably left because it was you.
Like I said, I didn't have the chance.
I wish you two would be friends again. Is that so hard?
Alright, I'll stop nagging.
Sheesh.
Hey, sweetie. Time to get up.
- What do you want? - You gonna be like that?
- What did I do? - Look.
Out of 24 hours, how can you sleep for 11 and eat for 6?
You're really asking for it. You've got nothing to say if I cheat on you.
Go ahead, cheat away. Whatever you want.
Something's up, with the throwing up and the laziness.
You eat and eat and still want more. Wait a sec, don't tell me you're...!
What?
No way. Never mind. Go back to sleep. Sleep away.
Oh no.
I'm sorry, Hyeong-woo.
I'm so sorry.
Lady.
Yes, ma'am?
She won't eat?
- She's still asleep. - She is?
- Shall I go wake her? - Let her sleep.
I have to go out. Warm that up for her later.
But Hyeong-woo's missing his meals, too.
He can eat when she eats.
Okay.
Her mother-in-law makes rice gruel for her.
Her husband nurses her all night, neither eating nor sleeping.
What a blessed life she leads.
Maybe it's an act.
That's enough from you.
You're acting weird.
How so?
All she's done is lie to you since the wedding.
Why are you doing so much for her?
I'll tell you... after you're married.
Ah! And I'm finally free. Look, look at my leg!
I thought I'd never take it off.
I miss you. Where you at? Want me to go to you?
I can run to you. Literally.
- Na-kyeong, what's taking so long? - I'm ready.
Mother, I can take care of it.
No, no, I should go along and prepare my son's celebratory dinner myself.
You're gonna cook and everything?
Of course I dearly want to.
But the kitchen's your territory and I don't want to overstep boundaries.
- So true. Let's go. - Yeah, let's.
How about salmon steak for the main course?
- Jeong-woo likes salmon. - Sounds good to me.
Oh!
I'm sorry. Go ahead.
Why, thank you.
Are you two sisters?
So a lot of people ask, but I'm actually her mother-in-law.
Mother, let's move on.
Sure, but what's the hurry? Huh? Hey, hey.
Wow, we bought way more than I thought.
- Whoa. - It's heavy. Careful.
- Man, you guys bought a lot. - Hey, it's you again.
- Can I help? - That would be great.
We're fine, thank you.
Gee, don't be so harsh when he's just being nice.
Sorry, young man.
It's fine.
Huh, look at her. What's with her?
I'll apologize for her. You were just trying to help.
Don't worry about it. Bye.
Geez. Honey, you here?
I'm home.
Where'd she go?
Where could she have...
- What do you want? I'm busy. - Where are you?
Where's Bi-an's... his stuff... where... Where are you right now?
- I'll tell you when I get home. Bye. - Honey!
Hey, hey!
Please leave a voicemail...
He sat up by your side all night.
I've never even seen him stay up past his bedtime.
- You going somewhere? - Yeah, I have something urgent.
The chairwoman will worry. You're still sick.
I'll be back soon. Take care of Hyeong-woo for me.
Will do.
Lookin' mighty spiffy, if I do say so myself.
Puts me in the mood to work.
Ugh, my suit's gonna smell like cooked meat.
Sweetums! Bo-young!
(What's she doing?)
Hey, sweetums.
I thought you had a cold. What are you doing here?
Huh? Um, eating well is the best way to fight a cold.
Things are so tense at home... And it just smelled so good.
So you're telling me... you at all this by yourself?
So what if I did?
I did eat a lot. Want to join me?
Heck no. My suit's gonna stink. Let's go already.
Hold up. I'm not finished here.
- Lady, where's the rest of my food? - Coming right up!
There we go.
Would you take a look at her. That's what you get for eating like a pig.
You eat and you throw up. That's what being pregnant's all about.
- Preg-pregnant? - Yessiree.
Hey, Eun-young.
Hi, dad.
Where's Bi-an?
Bi? Ah, Bi-an.
- Um, the thing is... - Is he at the sauna still?
- Dad...? - Well, you see...
He's gone.
Mom, what do you mean, he's gone?
His father came for him.
So forget that he exists and go back to how things were.
