(Episode 90)
What's wrong with the bus?
They said all it needed was gas.
The bus must have croaked.
What bad luck.
Why on our way to Midal's wedding?
This is a sign that the wedding should
be called off.
I agree with Uncle Baedal.
A wedding without witnesses
doesn't count.
How can you say that?
You should be giving mom your blessing.
This piece of junk is dead.
I'm going home.
Me too. Let's go.
Please wait.
What for?
The wedding's
probably over anyway.
I...
I'm not doing this.
Midal,
I bet the rest of my life on you.
I've put everything on the line.
It's freezing.
Let's pick up the pace.
I'm tired, Bom.
How about a piggyback ride?
Our princess is heavier than she looks.
Get on my back, Chisaem.
Do I have to go
to Ms. Lee's wedding?
Get on my back, ma'am.
Huh?
How embarrassing.
You're as light as a feather.
Let me down.
I've come to learn that while
it's important to get support from others,
it's not as important as your own
actions and attitude.
You and I are now one in body and soul.
I'll love you and care for you as you were me.
Take my hand.
Midal.
Mom!
Stop.
How can you get married
without us?
What's the rush
anyway?
That's right.
It's a good thing we ran.
Start over, will you?
Thank you for coming.
We'll start over then.
Thank you, my daughters,
Baedal, Jeongmi,
Ms. Kim,
and neighbors.
Kang Taejun and Lee Midal's
wedding will now commence.
Help!
Midal!
Help!
Help me!
That's enough.
What if he cracks his head open?
The new bride is worried about her husband.
Mind his back.
My legs feel like jelly.
Congratulations, dad.
Thank you.
If you make my sister shed a single tear,
you'll get it from me.
No problem.
Are you okay?
How's your back?
It's as strong as can be.
Shouldn't you throw the bouquet?
Right.
Ready?
Congratulations in advance, Bom and Maru.
It's yours, Ms. Kim.
But...
Why give it to my mother-in-law?
Bom's the only candidate here.
The bride gave it to me, so buzz off.
I'm keeping it.
Mother.
Are you going to remarry?
What was I thinking causing
Gukhui so much grief?
No. The franchise scam wasn't
for me to get rich.
I did it for my kids.
That's right.
If I were well off, you wouldn't have
done it, especially for chump change.
I'm sorry, mother.
I'm a bad son-in-law.
Forget it.
Don't sound so dejected.
We'll bite the bullet and
cling on.
For you and Jeonggi to survive,
we must be shameless leeches.
Gukhui, the thing is...
Won't you even say hello to your mother-in-law,
who hasn't been home in days?
Go and get me some warm tea.
That's right.
My stomach's cramping.
I need something warm to drink.
Geez, mom.
You should tell her what happened
and apologize...
Why are you still in your seat when
I asked you for tea?
Mom.
You know we sustained
a loss from this, don't you?
I'm sorry.
I must have lost my mind...
But you didn't spend a penny of it.
I told you to give the money back.
You got it, right?
But it was still wrong of me.
If this happens again,
I'll take
legal action.
Listen to how she talks.
And if you want to stay here,
you can't hurt the company or our family again.
Aren't you being too hard on mom?
Ow. Ow, my head.
Oh, my goodness.
My daughter-in-law rubs salt on my wound.
Ow! Ow, my head!
Mom, are you okay?
What's wrong, mother?
Ow, my head.
Mom.
Mother.
That smells good.
Let's see.
Everything you cook is to die for.
Thank you so much for enjoying
whatever I make.
But it's so good.
Why didn't you let me take you to a warm
island in the South Pacific?
It's lovely just to think about.
But I like camping.
We get to enjoy the nice night breeze,
a warm bonfire,
and a barbecue.
That's not all.
I hid something nice for you.
What in the world did he hide?
Why can't he just give it to me?
Where can it be?
How childish.
Geez.
Midal.
You startled me.
How amazing is this treasure that
you're putting me through this?
Isn't this fun?
It'll make our honeymoon memorable.
Give me a break.
I'm done.
I don't want the gift,
so let's just go.
I'm going to warm up by the fire.
Why do you give up so easily?
You almost gave up on the wedding.
And now you won't look for
the gift I got you.
Give up easily?
Why are you so childish all the time?
Though my late husband couldn't provide,
he never pulled childish tricks like this.
Listen, Midal.
You have the right to not like something,
but why compare me to someone else?
Isn't that against the rules?
It was a slip of the tongue.
Why criticize me for it so pointedly?
Would you like it if I talked about my ex-wife?
She was so sweet and...
Wait a minute, Taejun.
I married you because you begged
and pleaded.
How can you turn on me in less than a day?
I was duped.
I was completely duped.
But...
How can she make us do this
while she's enjoying her honeymoon?
Mom was worried about
closing the pub for just one day.
Let's not complain, okay?
Geez.
Why did mom have to marry
someone like Maru's dad
rather than a rich guy?
You marry a good provider so I can
get spending money from my brother-in-law.
I'm a good provider.
Yes, mom.
Huh? What are you talking about?
- Dad. / - Hey.
- Mom. / - Hi.
Let's go.
This is the first night
of your honeymoon.
Turns out this man here
is as petty as can be.
I should've known sooner.
Didn't you say Midal was cool and tough?
You were way off the mark.
She's a grudge-holding brat.
Excuse me? A brat?
That's right.
You called me petty first.
What's the matter with you two?
It's so cold that I wanted
to have sweet potatoes and
chat by the bonfire,
but he insisted on a treasure hunt.
Shouldn't gift-giving be fun for the gift giver?
What's the point then?
So you had a spat?
She said something
upsetting in the middle of the hunt.
So I...
I'm not saying I'm proud of myself, but...
Congratulations on your first lovers' quarrel
as a married couple.
It's nothing to be congratulated for.
Why don't you two finish your spat?
We'll see you tomorrow.
We'll head back now.
Why don't you stay?
Admire the stars and the moon and
listen to the breeze.
We'll head back together tomorrow.
Bom, you haven't had any alone time
with your mom since the wedding, right?
Spend the night with your mom
and talk about old times.
What would we have to talk about?
You and Maru face so many challenges.
Must you be with him?
Can't you be on my side, mom?
I thought you'd understand.
Do you remember how
Gaeul and I fought to sleep next to you?
I do.
You silly girl.
You've always been so loving
and trusting of people.
I was so mean to you,
yet you clung onto me.
You were never mean to me.
Go back to your birth parents.
Mom.
You should live with them.
And call Ms. Bae "mom."
I look bad because you're
having a hard time adjusting.
What's taking you so long?
I'll go later,
after Gaeul gets back.
It's best to go when our resolve is strong.
What if I miss you?
Stop being silly.
Just come and see me then.
I'm not halfway across the globe.
I'm just a quick bus ride away.
Then I'll come every day and...
I told you not to do that.
When I first sent you there,
I felt empty and lost
because I wasn't
ready to let you go.
But I've come to terms with it now.
We should each do well in
our respective places, right?
Let's go.
I'll take you there, okay?
I'm sorry to have worried you.
Whatever.
I'm not happy to see my flaky granddaughter.
Welcome back, Bom.
Thank you.
I'm sorry.
I feel so ashamed.
I went off at you because I was worried
about you and Aran's relationship.
I didn't know you'd get so upset.
She's back now.
And we know she's been fine.
What about her room though?
I missed you so much that I was in your room.
I'll move out
now that you're back.
You were staying here?
Do you remember these?
Some were taken before you went missing.
Mr. An took such
good care of you when I was busy.
I'm so grateful to him.
You were so beautiful.
It came out well.
Here.
I thought the film might be too old,
but the details came out nicely.
I didn't recognize her at first.
Your wife was very pretty and classy back then.
She still is.
Except for a few wrinkles
that set in because of me,
she hasn't changed.
You're such a sap.
Why aren't you doing any work?
You shouldn't waste your exceptional talent.
Oh, right.
Here.
I have an exhibit in New York next month.
Really?
Congratulations.
You should take lots of
great pictures before you get any older.
I should.
There's been a lot of commotion.
I got an old photo developed
to remember the good old days.
Look at how young I was.
You remember my friend Byeonghui, right?
The photography professor.
Of course.
He holds many exhibits overseas.
He asked me if I'd run a studio with him.
How great.
My son needs a camera in his hand,
not pots and pans.
You did better than him in your heyday.
Before you married Gukhui,
you won many
photography contests than him.
That's why a man must meet a good wife.
Alas, Jeonggi's been
overshadowed by his ambitious wife.
I feel bad asking, but it's
too good of an opportunity to miss.
Couldn't you help me out?
It won't cost that much.
I made it clear to you.
Just focus on our children.
What did you just say to your husband?
How dare you
treat your husband like vermin?
Stop it.
Stop what?
Grandma.
Stop what? Stop what, huh?
I felt terrible when I heard that
you and dad grew distant and
lived separately because of me.
But dad and grandma are too hard on you.
Don't hold back
and say what you want.
I'm not holding back.
I'm trying to be understanding
for your sake, our children's sake.
That's why you're hurting inside.
Why are you so upset?
I had no idea and only caused you grief, mom.
I'm sorry.
Did you just
call me mom?
I thought it'd be over if I disappeared.
But I'm not going anywhere now.
I'll protect you, mom.
Thank you, my daughter.
Thank you so much.
Bom moved back to your parents'.
Shouldn't you be there too
and stay right
by Ms. Bae's side to keep Bom
from opening her trap?
I'll deal with Bom,
so don't worry.
You keep saying that,
but what have you actually done?
How long must we live
in fear of your sister?
And why did you give up your post?
That's enough, Seonyeong!
Why are you taking it out on Aran?
Mom, you'll give Aran indigestion.
Aran's doing the best she can for us.
Her best must not be enough.
What has she to show for it?
Why is she... I'll go.
You're a smart cookie.
How did you manage to time
your pregnancy so perfectly?
I'm not pregnant, mother.
I'm just not feeling well.
No? You're not pregnant?
No.
Why can't you do anything right?
Your pregnancy would have
been our best defense.
Darn it.
No matter how bad things are,
you shouldn't talk about a baby so lightly.
Don't be so self-righteous over a baby
you don't even have.
Aran, how's your stomach?
Taeho, there's only one way out of this.
Get pregnant right away.
Mom.
Bom won't tell Ms. Bae
if her sister is pregnant.
You'll have children anyway.
This is the perfect time.
I have to get to work.
Aran.
Mom, please stop.
Geez.
Why won't anyone
help me save our family?
I'm about to give out.
No, Suho. Pull a bit more.
Choi Jia,
why did you let go?
We have to do this for a smooth delivery.
Doing stretches isn't important right now.
I think I'm starting to show.
What are we going to do?
This won't do.
We can't stay in hiding
like criminals.
We should let our families know.
You're right.
They'll find out anyway.
We should tell them we got married.
Yes, let's do that.
Let's go to my house first.
Is Suho keeping up with
his studies in Canada?
Hello?
I'm Suho mother.
Suho, please.
What? What did you say?
Wait. Hello?
Did he just say Suho's not there?
Gilsu. Gilsu!
What is it?
Gilsu, Gilsu.
I don't think Suho's in Canada.
What are you talking about?
You said he called when he got in.
What's going on?
Mom.
Hello.
What is the meaning of this?
Suho...
What are you doing here?
An Suho!
Did you lie to us again?
And you too, Jia?
We got married.
Do you think marriage is a joke?
It's not a joke.
I know it's hard for you to accept,
but it is what it is,
so we'll make it work.
You shouldn't kneel.
Our oinky.
Good grief. You little hussy,
you wheedled him into this, didn't you?
He was going overseas to
make something of himself,
but you ruined his life.
Mom! Mom!
Don't lay a finger on her.
Jia is...
Get out!
We don't need a son like you.
Get out right now!
You too.
- Father. Mother... / - Dad.
Get out!
Good heavens.
How am I going to stop them?
Ms. Choi, are you okay?
Why are you here?
To see me at my lowest?
You're pregnant, aren't you?
So what are you doing here?
What do you care?
Mind your own business and get lost.
Aran.
Ms. Choi.
Ms. Bae. Mr. An.
Why are you being so stubborn?
If you defied me to
become a director,
what are you doing here instead of
working harder at your post?
I finally realized that
I didn't deserve to be a director.
Don't you know this is more
irresponsible and disgraceful?
Ms. Bae, Aran is...
What did I tell you?
Be a good director
and assist Ms. Bae.
Why won't you do as I say?
Aran.
You're being like this out of fear.
You're scared
you'll be exposed,
so you're torturing yourself
by working at the warehouse.
Come clean and find peace
for the sake of your baby.
My baby?
You might damage your health
and put your baby at risk.
What about you?
Why are you hounding me
if you're so worried about the baby?
Why are you
stifling me with the past?
Aran.
Enough with your act.
Don't worry about me
and do whatever you want.
Pardon?
Transferring your shares to me?
That's ridiculous.
It's just a part of my shares.
It took a while to get the board's authorization.
And I'll be convening a special shareholders'
meeting appointing you to the board.
There's no need.
My duty is to be
your right-hand man.
You're family now, Mr. An.
You'll have my back
no matter what your post.
Master Kim's come around because
you were an effective liaison.
You've come through for me in so many ways.
There have been as many issues
between our families
as the many years we've known each other.
It's just company shares and a title,
but I hope we can move past
our differences and misunderstandings.
I knew the day would come.
Thank you, Gilsu.
I love you, honey.
You're partly responsible for
Gilsu's success.
Thank you, Aran.
Don't get ahead of yourself.
This isn't the time.
Geez.
Can't we take a breather?
I'm not worried about Bom anymore.
You shouldn't be.
She'll know better than to blab.
Right. And I threatened her that
you guys will get divorced
if she doesn't stop.
It was just an empty threat.
So if you'd just get pregnant...
Mom, stop it.
I know I shouldn't keep coming here,
but I stopped by as I heard about
Gilsu's great news.
Congratulations.
It's not like we did anything.
We're just grateful for your generosity.
I was worried you were still
upset at us over that
press incident at our house,
but my worries were unfounded.
That's been taken care of.
So I was thinking of taking you out to dinner, but
mother suggested both families get together.
Then let's do it at our house.
I've felt bad about
missing Taeho and Aran's wedding,
so let me make it up to you.
You're so gracious and eloquent.
Did you hear?
Mr. An will be
appointed to the board.
Ms. Bae already gave him some of her shares.
What are you talking about?
How can Mr. An...
And what's mom thinking?
(Transfer of Shares)
Bom.
I'll just say one thing.
Bom.
Allow me to explain first.
I was going to tell Ms. Bae everything.
But when I thought about it,
I was worried it'd be too shocking for her.
Mr. An.
I'll spend the rest of my life redeeming myself.
I'll always watch over your mother
and make it up to you as best I can.
What do you think?
Wouldn't that be better than
traumatizing your mother and wreaking havoc
on both families?
Mr. An, you
really disappoint me.
Stop deceiving Ms. Bae and me.
If you don't tell her today,
then I will.
Bom. Bom.
They say even a flea has
a sense of shame, but alas.
How dare she show up here
after shooing us away!
You don't say.
What a piece of work.
She's utterly shameless.
That's why
none of us should
cross Ms. Bae again.
You should be grateful that
she lets you stay here.
I was trying my best not to chew you out,
but who do you think you are?
Ms. Kim, is that the tone you should take
with your granddaughter's mother-in-law?
I don't know why you're being so cocky,
but you'd better watch it.
We're here.
It's my daughter-in-law.
Is our family's pride and joy here?
We should've done this soon after
Aran and Taeho's wedding, but
we've been so distracted.
Let's give Ms. Bae a round of applause for
organizing this meaningful dinner.
Applause, please.
Why is everyone so shy?
Bom said she'd be here.
Where is father?
I've had it.
I won't let him deceive mom any longer.
Fine.
What's so great about a seat on the board?
It's not worth it.
It's because of this child
that I ended up like this.
Gilsu, sit.
You're here, Bom.
I have something to say.
It's about why I went missing
20 years ago.
What are you talking about?
Why you missing?
It
was because of me.
It was all my fault.
Mr. An, what do you mean?
