Be good to her...
instead of me, Ms Lee.
You are...
her real daughter.
What?
She keeps having a difficult time saying this, so I will.
She is...
your real mother.
What are you...
talking about?
Explain...
so that I can understand.
My dad got married to her when I was five years old.
When she stood surety for her relative and ended up in debt,
my dad passed away from the shock.
She cried every night, looking at a picture of her daughter.
That's why...
I couldn't call her mum.
Are you saying that...
I'm her daughter?
I found out only recently.
She saw a picture in your wallet or something.
When?
- When? - I don't know exactly.
Ask her yourself.
At first, I was worried I'd lose her.
But not any longer.
I don't want to get in between you two.
I'll get out of your way.
Be happy, you two.
Honey.
What are you doing here?
I told Ms Lee about Ms Ok.
What?
She should find her mother as soon as possible.
I'm sorry, Ms Lee.
Let's go.
Let's go right now.
What?
Okay, Il Mok.
Bang Geul.
I have to go somewhere.
Please watch Ga Ram.
Okay.
Mi So.
I guess I don't deserve to be happy.
I've been looking forward to...
Jeju Island so much.
I've been so excited.
Joo Ye Eun just ruined everything.
My head is throbbing.
Let's go home.
Kids are home.
Okay.
We shouldn't leave our kids alone.
Why are you...
here?
Did something happen?
I'm sorry, Mother.
I've never...
hated Ye Eun this much in my life.
I begged her to let me talk to Mi So myself.
Mi So must be shocked.
I'm so sorry.
What did Mi So say?
Does she resent me?
I was too busy trying to stop Ye Eun.
It's over now.
It's all over.
Why are you staring at me?
You should have let Ms Ok tell her.
She couldn't seem to do that.
I told her to, but she never did it.
It was different this time.
Don't yell at me.
I'm pregnant.
I saw a doctor a few days ago because I had pain.
I might miscarry.
That woke me up.
I realised I should stay at ease to protect our baby.
Whenever I saw them, I felt guilty.
When I told Ms Ok to tell the truth, I meant it,
but she never seemed to do it. That's why I had to step in.
I had no bad intentions.
How could I do something bad if I think of our baby?
I have no hard feelings towards Ms Ok.
I thank her for raising me.
But...
I don't want to see her again.
She brings out all kinds of emotions in me.
It's so painful.
I need some sleep.
I have to protect our baby.
That's the only thing I care about.
The result will be out soon.
Hang in there.
I'm sorry, Ms Ok.
What's your mother's phone number?
I'll call her.
I don't have a mother.
I'm so sorry.
Think of me as your mum for the day.
You shouldn't get worn out.
I'll get you a cup of water.
This is my mum.
Isn't she pretty?
She probably changed a lot by now.
I probably can't recognise her even if I run into her.
Ms Lee.
May I hold your hand?
Sure.
Mr Kim is a trustworthy man.
I don't know what this is about,
but I hope you two can make up soon.
Ms Ok. Thanks to you, I was a bit less lonely.
Mi So.
You knew...
about this, didn't you?
Isn't that why...
you tried to send Ms Ok and me to Jeju Island?
That means Mother knew, too.
Do you understand...
this situation?
This doesn't make sense.
How can Ms Joo's mum be my mum?
She lived as her mum...
for 30 years after abandoning me.
Don't read too much into this.
Come on.
You'll feel better after a nap.
Rest well, okay?
All right.
Dad.
What's wrong with Mum?
Is she sick?
Her heart is in pain.
Bang Geul, will you stay in your room with Ga Ram?
Okay.
My goodness.
What should I do?
I can't...
bear to look you in the eyes.
I'm sorry.
Please tell Ms Lee that I'm sorry.
Why did Ms Joo have to...
Why on earth did she do that?
Why did she have to do this today?
I know it sounds like an excuse,
but my wife was under a lot of stress, too.
She went to the hospital a few days ago...
and the doctor told her that she may miscarry.
She took this on herself because Mother couldn't tell her.
She must've felt guilty for taking away her mother.
Mi So seems like a different person now.
I'm too scared to talk to her.
I'm sure she is stifled.
I'm not sure...
about what I can do.
For now,
we'd just have to wait for her to calm down.
Do you want this?
I can smile thanks to you, Ga Ram.
- Mum. - Yes, Bang Geul?
Is your heart in a lot of pain?
A bit.
Don't be hurt, Mum.
I will pat you.
What?
Your hand is better than a medicine.
Come here.
I love you, Bang Geul and Ga Ram.
Honey.
Can you...
take me somewhere else?
Please.
This is...
You loved...
this road.
Nothing has changed...
from back then.
I, Jae Min, will always be...
next to you, Mi So.
We'll always walk down the same road.
If you need my hand,
you can always grab it.
Just like how you used to.
I should be crying.
Cry.
Cry all you want.
You don't have to care about others.
Why do mums lie...
that they will be back...
after three nights?
That's what my mum said when she abandoned me.
I waited so long for her.
I really did.
I was...
younger than Bang Geul at that time.
How can she abandon such a baby?
Why does she have to be Ms Joo's mum?
Why?
Do you feel better?
Yes.
I cried all I want.
No matter how I think about this, I really can't understand...
that she abandoned her child.
I can never abandon Bang Geul and Ga Ram.
I don't think...
I can face Ms Ok.
She can't suddenly show up...
and become my mum.
Ms Joo is in this, too.
I want things to stay this way.
I've lived a good life without a mum anyway.
No matter what you decide to do,
I am on your side.
I'm going to live even more diligently than now.
I'll bring up my kids well...
and work hard.
I'll also love you more.
I am honoured.
You should do what you want, too. Don't mind me.
You can continue with shared babysitting...
and preparing to return to work.
Don't worry.
- Mi So. - Yes?
Smile today.
Smile...
today.
Let's go.
- Mother. - Oh, my.
Why are you back so early?
Your back isn't in a good shape.
Of course we should be back early.
Ga Ram, Mum's here.
- Mother, I'll take Ga Ram in. - Sure.
Let's go.
Come here.
What did she say?
She wants things to stay the same.
Oh, my.
It would have been nice if Ms Ok had told her in Jeju Island.
After spending some time together, they would have started talking,
and they could have worked things out.
Ms Ok must be devastated by now.
Why don't you visit her?
I better not.
What could comfort her now?
She needs some time alone.
Have you ever...
tried to find your mother?
What for?
My mum left me when I was five.
She never came to see me.
It means she doesn't miss me.
She might have a reason.
I heard she got married again.
What could we do even if we meet now?
She already has her own life.
I'll end up resenting her even more.
Look at this.
Look at this, too.
- Wait. - Who told you to do this?
Bang Geul's dad did.
Isn't my handwriting nice?
It is. Good job.
He said if I can do it well, I can win against math.
Can you?
Take out your workbook now.
I don't want to.
You quit math classes. You should at least do this.
I'm taking another math class.
You still have to prepare for your school classes.
If you don't, you'll be the worst student in your class.
Here. Try it.
Hurry up.
Why are you here at this time of the day?
I feel so down,
so I'm just stopping by.
You should go to Jae Min if you're feeling down.
He must be feeling down, too.
Did something happen?
Young man.
Do you know what you should do...
to forget your pain?
What is it?
- You should cook. - What?
- Let's cook. - Il Mok.
What are you talking about?
I should come up with dishes...
that will satisfy...
our little visitors.
It's 11pm.
What's left will be yours.
- What should we start with? - Take everything out of the fridge.
Everything.
Okay.
- The whole family is here. - Of course.
It's your first day after the merge.
Mum, take this lunch box.
Okay.
Thank you, Honey.
Mum, smile today!
Smile today!
Ga Ram will smile, too!
I have so much support.
- I'll get going. - See you.
(L'equip)
With the new name,
doesn't it feel weird?
It does.
They changed everything during the weekend.
Good morning.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
What's up with the atmosphere?
We should cheer up on our first day after the merger.
- Okay. - Luckily,
it wasn't a hostile takeover.
Restructuring won't happen until later.
- Really? - That's great.
The marketing team will take our projects into consideration.
The sales team will follow the new rules.
Just keep up the good work.
- Okay. - Okay.
Good luck.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
We don't have to worry about restructuring for now.
Ms Joo.
When should we have our meeting?
Mi So.
Why are you suddenly so polite to Ms Joo?
She's in a higher position than me. It's only natural.
I'm sorry I've been rude to you, Ms Joo.
Ms Lee.
What's up with you? You're making me uncomfortable.
Why are you uncomfortable?
I'm just being polite to you.
I don't want to...
be involved with you personally from now on.
You live your life.
I'll live my life.
Is it because of Ms Ok?
Ms Ok?
She raised you for 30 years. She's your mother.
Take care of...
your mother.
You're here.
- Il Mok. - Yes.
Why can't you look me in the eye?
What are you talking about?
Don't be so sorry.
Mi So will be fine after some time.
What's wrong with you?
Why don't we go and advertise our shared babysitting?
That sounds good.
You know,
Mrs Cinderella majored in art.
With someone who majored in sports, our curriculum will be perfect.
Could we find someone who majored in sports?
I do know a master of sports.
Who is it?
The owner of this apartment.
He shouldn't waste his muscles.
Why didn't I think of him before?
He did great on the company's sports day.
I'll make sure to persuade him.
Aren't we almost as perfect as "The Avengers"?
Thank you, Jae Min.
You're welcome.
Il Mok.
- Cheer up. - Okay.
It's me. I have a favour to ask.
The thing is...
I'd like to meet the principal of Haneul Elementary School.
Please let me meet him soon.
I'd like to treat him to a nice meal.
Okay. Thank you.
Honey.
Why do you want to meet the principal?
Eun Sol should prepare to enter the School for the Gifted.
School for the Gifted?
Gosh.
Don't you know that's all parents' biggest interest these days?
Considering Eun Sol's talents,
she should aim for a school supervised by a university.
I wish Seoul National University accepts elementary school students,
but they apparently don't.
Seoul National University of Education do, though.
Why would you want to meet the principal?
Eun Sol will need a letter of recommendation from the principal.
I better meet him beforehand.
Eun Sol should get prepared during her vacation.
She's talented in both math and science.
Okay. I'll tell her to study.
But she needs some time to hang out with her friends.
Didn't she already do enough of that?
Do you think a week is enough?
I don't want Eun Sol to waste her time like that.
I'm going to get close to Eun Sol in my own way.
Sing the chorus together.
- Under the sea - Louder!
- Under the sea - Under the sea
- Darling, it's better - Darling, it's better
- Down where it's wetter - Down where it's wetter
- Take it from me - Take it from me
- Up on the shore they work all day - Up on the shore they work all day
- Out in the sun they slave away - Out in the sun they slave away
Full time to floating
I can't sleep because of the noise.
It's so touching.
It is?
Do you have the lyrics, everyone?
- Yes. - We're going to learn them now.
Let's learn them line by line.
- Okay. - It'll be so fun.
All right.
Is that someone who wants to join shared babysitting?
- Is that so? - Is it so?
- This isn't easy. - Oh, my.
There has been a complaint about how loud this house is.
What?
We weren't that loud.
Whatever it is, please keep it down.
Sure. I'm sorry.
My goodness.
There must be a very sensitive person.
I heard noise complaint issues are very big these days.
I'm worried.
Aren't you going home?
Mi So.
- What? - You should go home. It's past 8pm.
What? Really?
What's with you today? You were really out of it.
I guess so.
I'm sorry, Honey. I'm really late.
Right now? I'm right in front of the apartment.
Orange juice?
Okay, I'll get some.
Mi So.
My child.
