- Episode 49 -
What did you just say to me? I think I heard you wrong.
Did you just ask me to break up with you?
You're right. I just got tired of everything.
I want to break up with you.
Where are you right now? I'll be right over there.
Let's meet and talk it out for the time being. Are you at home now?
Tae Min, don't come over. I won't meet with you even if you come over.
Does this make any sense to you?
Why are you doing this all of a sudden? Weren't we having a good relationship up until now?
Wait a minute, Jin Joo! Don't hang up on me, Jin Joo!
The owner of this phone is not available.
What's the matter? Did Jin Joo ask you to break up with her?
I'm not sure. She hasn't been answering my phone calls lately.
So, I was going to go over her house if I couldn't get a hold of her today.
She wasn't willing to break up with him when I asked her to for goodness sake.
Are you going to go over to see Jin Joo now?
Let's talk when I get back, okay Mom?
What are you doing there, dude?
Can we leave them alone in that room, Hyung?
That kid is very treacherous you know.
Yeon Tae is an innocent girl too. Is it okay for us to just leave them be?
Don't you feel sad that we are getting married so fast?
But you were the one that talked about marriage first, Sang Min dear.
That's true, but when you told me that we should just date at least ten more times,
it made me feel a bit electrified.
We promised each other that we will be dating intensely, too.
When did I say that? You were the one who said all that, Sang Min honey.
So, I was thinking that maybe we should go on a trip together. How about it?
Pardon?
Let's take a trip somewhere. You have a lot of time since you're off work anyway.
I'm not sure about that. Going on a trip is a little...
What's the big idea? We are going to get married as soon as we set up a wedding date. Let's go on a trip, okay?
You were thinking about something naughty just now, weren't you?
That's not true! I wasn't thinking about anything naughty!
It's hot in here.
But you were thinking about something naughty just now.
Even if we do go on a trip, I will be doing nothing but holding your hand when we go to sleep.
I told you that's not true.
The eyes cannot tell a lie you know.
What are you thinking about such a nice thing like that for?
I'm sorry, I completely forgot to knock.
It's okay, Hyungnim.
You're all right, Oppa.
Yeah, you two might be bored waiting for the meal,
so I brought a photo album for you to look at.
Thank you very much, Hyungnim.
- Thanks Oppa. - Sure. - Go on ahead, sir.
Oh no. Let's look at the photo album later. We should get back to what we were doing.
There's nothing we can do about you two being alone in the same room while they are getting the meal ready.
But you have to leave the door open so we can see everything! Got that?!
Yes, sir.
We would've been in big trouble if I'd gone in there a little bit late. It's clear that they were doing something, Bro.
- I can take the fish out on to the table right, Mother? - Yeah.
- I think it's almost done. - Yes, Mother.
Hold on a bit.
- There's more. Take these too. - Yes, Mother.
Has everything been okay with you and the in-laws upstairs since Binnie's birthday party?
There haven't been any problems, Mother.
Don't worry so much, Mother. I will take care of everything without a problem.
All right. I think you are sharp and wise,
so I do feel relieved.
They're just worried about the kids, that's all.
How's Pro Kim at your job?
Your husband is the type that doesn't like to talk about other people's flaws, so it's hard to believe him when he says he likes someone.
I think he's a good guy, at least compared to when I first met him.
I do think that he's a good person, the more I see him.
He is a bit fussy when it comes to his work, but I think that he is really good to someone that he cares about, Mother.
He has a lot of strong points, Mother.
I know, right? I knew it.
Yeon Tae and Jin Joo were friends ever since they were young.
They were friends long before their brother and sister met each other you know.
But Yeon Tae was weak in other areas, compared to Jin Joo, except for being good in school.
Jin Joo was outgoing so she was quite popular with the boys.
They say that there is no way of knowing what can happen to a person. See? When it comes to getting married,
Yeon Tae is going to have it better than her, right?
Does that make you feel that good, Mother?
Of course.
It will also be easy for you once Jin Joo gets married.
Once Soo and Bin's mother passed away, their grandmother
paid a little too much attention to the children. Maybe it was because she was feeling empty inside or something.
But don't you think that she will balance it out once Jin Joo gets married?
She will get to see a nice son-in-law and will get to see grandchildren through Jin Joo, too.
Then they will be less interested in the matters of Soo and Bin.
Yes, Mother.
- It's my turn to pour you a drink now. - Yes, Hyungnim. Please pour me a drink, sir.
But why are you guys only giving me the booze?
What do you think, pal? There is something that my father told me last night.
He said that Yeon Tae is his only daughter,
so he shouldn't send her away to you until he gets to see your drinking habits.
I have no drinking habits, sirs. The only thing that I have is sleeping when I get drunk.
I think you are very drunk, Sang Min dear. Stop feeding him booze.
He still has a long way to go, girl.
You're my only little sister for goodness sake. Hurry up and drink that, boy!
I haven't approved of your marriage yet.
I have so much to ask you before I send my Yeon Tae away to you.
You're right, Father. I've been curious about something all this time.
Why is it my dear sister, Yeon Tae, out of so many girls out there?
That's so true. I've also been so curious about that myself. Did you guys fall in love at first sight?
I don't think that's the case.
To be honest with you, we really didn't like each other at all at first.
But as we kept on seeing each other day by day, how should I say this?
Should I say that I saw the sincerity in her.
Anyway, she seemed like a very special and innocent person,
so I came to like her.
That's so true. It's hard to tell what a person will be like just by the first impression.
You have to be around someone long enough to realize their true value.
When I also met your father through others in an arranged setting,
I was wondering what they took me for that they would introduce me to a man that didn't look all that handsome.
And I felt offended and disappointed with the person who introduced me to your father.
So, is that why you wrote so many of those letters to me? Geez.
It's because that first impression wasn't everything, Honey.
But anyway, I was very disappointed at first.
He is such a short man with short legs too. He also has these short little arms.
This man was so small all around with nothing big about him, you know.
But he is such a deep person with a big heart.
You see, I don't have any other expectations.
Just as my husband treats me,
if you can do the same for my daughter, Yeon Tae, then you will be 100% son-in-law material for us.
That's right. Keep this in mind. We men lose to the women in this household.
So you have to be like that with our Yeon Tae too. Got that?
Don't you worry about that, Hyungnim. I won't be able to beat Yeon Tae at all. I would lose to her in every fight.
Did you guys fight that much already?
I'm just saying.
Didn't you witness everything that happened last time, Father?
My heart was so wounded because of Yeon Tae that I had to be carried over here by Ho Tae Hyungnim.
Father, I cannot do anything when it comes to Yeon Tae.
I saw all of it! I can't forget about that at all!
Here.
- Do you like poetry? - Pardon me, sir?
I asked you if you like poetry?
Ah, yes... Poetry.
My father likes poetry.
Father, your favorite poem is "The Night With the Stars", right?
You know, that's the one that Father used to memorize from time to time.
That's right.
Do you have any poem that you have memorized, kid?
Well... That's...
Father, since he is an athlete that's a bit...
I'm not talking about anything professional.
Rationality is important when it comes to life,
but sensitivity is very important in life.
Humans live by bumping heads with each other in the end,
and that's what marriage and life are all about.
- But Father— - I do have a poem that I have memorized, Father...
When you are leaving me because you are so disgusted with me,
don't you think I would've comforted her and brought her home to live a happy life?!
Oh, this is so humorous.
You punk. How can you not memorize such a famous poem for goodness sake?
Here, have a drink.
- Here. - Yes, Hyungnim.
Oppa, stop giving him booze. He's already had a lot to drink.
No, he still has a long way to go.
Real truth will only come out once he is fully drunk.
And I must hear that truth.
- You're okay with that, right Brother-in-law? - Yes, Hyungnim. I don't mind at all.
That's right. You shouldn't feel drunk already. Come here, boy.
Go ahead and drink now. Drink up. That's good.
I will be asking you a few questions now as Yeon Tae's second older brother.
You had tons of girls in the past, right?
- Oppa! - You stay out of this, girl. This is all for your sake, you know.
Yeon Tae here is a fool when it comes to love, and you are her first boyfriend, too.
You are famous.
You are very popular and also very good looking.
I have a feeling that a lot of girls threw themselves at you. Am I right?
Men who have had relationships with a lot of women
are not good at all. Spit it all out.
Girls?
Yes, that's what I said, buddy. You've dated tons of girls, haven't you? How many times have you dated?
Weren't there rumors that he stopped dating a long time ago?
I think none of them lasted that long.
I think I heard that he did date a lot in the past.
But it seems like he is very drunk right now.
Could it be that he...
No way. There is no way that he would say all that.
No way...
Father! Brothers!
I been reborn ever since I met Yeon Tae.
I have no other women besides Yeon Tae. There isn't anybody that I'm dating besides Yeon Tae.
How should I say this? I don't remember anything.
The only person who's on my mind now is Yeon Tae.
What am I going to do? What is he doing here like that? He should just go home already.
I turned off my cell phone.
Tae Min, don't call me anymore. I won't answer your calls even if you call me.
The owner of this phone isn't available now.
Tae Min, you idiot.
I am not answering any of your calls so what makes you think that I'm going to read your texts?
Don't wait for me and just go home.
What were you doing over there just now?
What do you mean what I was doing? I was just sitting here, Dad.
I heard from your brother-in-law earlier this morning
that Pro Kim is going over to Yeon Tae's house to meet her parents later on today.
- Is that right? - You should hurry up and tell teacher Kim to come over to our house to greet us too.
He's the one who asked you to marry him, so why isn't there any news about it?
Forget it, Dad. You're not even interested in me anyway. You're being like this for no good reason because you heard something about Yeon Tae.
Why are you going out again this late in the evening?
I don't know.
Hey, Woo Young. Are you going out to take the trash out?
Yes.
Since your going down that way anyway, do you think you can do this auntie a favor?
Auntie?
Soo calls me Auntie and you want to call me Noona? Just call me Auntie.
You know that I am dating your homeroom teacher, right?
Yes.
If you go downstairs, your homeroom teacher will be there right now.
If you go down there to take the trash out, your homeroom teacher will approach you
and will ask you if I am home.
Then you should tell him that I went over to the hair salon to get my hair done about an hour ago.
That's a lie though.
How can I lie to my teacher?
Do you think you can just say that to him this once for your auntie here?
Did you get into a fight with my teacher?
That is...
My teacher is a very good man though.
Oh, I know.
So are you going to do me this favor or not?
I don't think I can lie to him, though.
I won't be able to do that. I don't think my teacher would like that.
No, don't go down there. I will throw this away for you. Go back upstairs.
Go. Go back upstairs. Go away.
Did I pass the test tonight?
Of course, you passed.
Big Hyungnim, second Hyungmin, did I pass the test today?
What should we do about him, Ho Tae?
It seems like I can't find any fault with this guy. What do you think, Hyung?
I guess he is good enough so I should give him a pass too.
Thank you!
I'm going to walk him up to the nearby alleyway.
- So you should all go back into the house already, okay? - Yes, Father!
Honey, discipline Son-in-law Kim in moderation, okay?
- Alright. - You should go drop him off too, Yeon Tae.
You better come home early!
Don't worry about that, Hyungnim.
- Goodbye! - I'm off now. - See ya!
Alright!
To tell you the truth,
I'm not so happy about my dear Yeon Tae getting married already.
They say that there is a time for everything in life.
My beloved Yeon Tae just barely got past being labelled as a student and now she is officially in the workforce.
So, if she gets married now,
then wouldn't there be a lot of things that she'll be missing out on?
I feel like that's something she is going to lose.
And also I feel like my little baby girl is leaving me so fast,
and that makes me feel disappointed too.
Father...
When my baby girl was born,
I still remember that very vividly. It was completely different from when my two boys were born.
I felt anxious even when the sound of her cry was thin.
Would she break if I touched her? Would she fly away when the wind blew?
I always felt very careful, every time I held her.
Yeon Tae is that kind of daughter to me.
Get to date a lot just like everyone else.
And also get to do everything that you want to do.
She should also get as much love from us since she is the baby of the family.
I would like to do that if I had the right to do whatever I want.
Sang Min, do you know how I feel right about now?
Yes, Sir. I think I do.
You are right that Yeon Tae is getting married earlier, just like what you said, Father.
And she would clearly lose a lot for sure.
But Father. As I have been dating Yeon Tae, this is what I decided to do, Sir,
and my world will be revolving around Lee Yeon Tae starting from now onward.
This will be my creed for the rest of my life.
I will work really hard so Yeon Tae won't regret choosing me, not even once.
I will make her happy, Father.
I will work hard too, Father.
I will live happily.
Father, are you also going to give me pass too?
Since both of you are one team, what can I do? I have to give you guys a pass whether I like it or not.
Thank you, Father.
I've been coming to this neighborhood every day, but it looks a little different tonight.
Why is that?
I don't know.
Maybe it's because I'm thinking that you'll really be someone very special to me from now on.
A neighborhood that my girlfriend lives in
versus the neighborhood that my future wife lives in is a little different.
How are you feeling? You had to drink a lot because of my second oppa.
But it looks like you are okay to me, though.
Yeah, I'm fine. I'm not drunk at all.
But it's a fact that you can't drive since you did drink,
so I will be your chauffeur service for tonight.
Seriously? No way. Do you even know how to drive, Yeon Doo?
Of course I do. I might look like this but I have a level one normal driver's license.
Wow, you are better off than me then. I am Level two normal.
Alright then. I should go home comfortably in the car that you'll be driving tonight.
Please take good care of me, ma'am.
I will safely drive you to your destination, sir.
You worked really hard tonight.
I know. Today was your off day too but you didn't even get to rest.
It's okay. This is all for Yeon Tae's marriage anyway.
Hyungnim, you worked really hard tonight.
I didn't do much. You and Mother did pretty much everything.
I am really enjoying the drama you're working on. Keep it up guy.
Hyung, Sister-in-law. Take a look at this.
What is this?
This is the script for the drama that I am working on.
Tell Woo Ri and Binnie to audition for the child actor role for this drama I'm working on.
Oh my, really?
Of course, Sister-in-law.
There will be other children auditioning too besides Woo Ri and Binnie,
and we will be selecting the best child out of them all.
But Hyung, there is a high chance that they won't make it. Just tell them to do audition because this will be a good experience for them at the very least.
There will be other staff members besides myself and they will be in the audience and part of the process too. Children tend to freeze up when there are other people around.
That can also be a part of learning process too, you know.
- The kids would love it right? - Yeah, I know, right?
What is the role?
Oh, it's the role as the daughter of the main female lead. She will be a smart, clever and an extraordinary child.
That's right. That pretty actress
will be in charge of that child, right?
Yeah, that's right.
A true actor isn't picky with the role they play.
Anyway, either of them would be coming onto the show for only three episodes.
It will be a good experience for the kids and I think they will enjoy it, too.
Alright. Thanks for the offer. I will discuss it with both Binnie and Woo Ri.
Let me know about the location and time of the audition later on.
Hand...
Yeon Tae, let's go take a trip.
We can't.
Let's go take a trip. Okay?
Let's go.
When I saw your sister tonight, I was totally envious of her.
What for?
I have no parents and I don't have any older brothers to protect me, either.
After seeing your sister like that it made me feel so envious of her.
I also talked about that with your brother's wife, too. We were both saying that your sister is a very fortunate person.
That's why we were telling each other that she grew up to be a good and innocent girl.
Why are you envious? You have me now, Honey.
I can be your husband and I can also be your oppa now too. I can be everything that you want me to be.
That's a lie. It's hard to be a husband and a father to all of these children, so how are you going to be able to be an oppa, too?
- Is that right? - Mr. Lee Sang Tae, you just have to be good at one thing. All you have to do is be good to me.
The kids would love it if we bring up the audition, right?
I think they would like it but what are we to do if Binnie gets it and Woo Ri doesn't?
No way. That won't happen. We will get the parts then.
Your brother was saying earlier that kids with acting experience will be coming in for this audition though. Our kids are complete novices so there will be no way that they will make it, right?
But who knows? Woo Ri and Binnie might get it in one shot because they are geniuses.
That's nonsense. None of us have that kind of talent!
There you go.
Thank you. You want to stop by my house for a bit?
That's okay. My family will be worried if I come home too late.
That can't be helped. This is making me sad but I will go and help you catch a taxi though.
No, that's fine. You can go home now.
- You'll go all the way over there from here by yourself? - It's okay so you should go, just go home.
Do you want to stop by my house?
- No, it's okay. - Come here.
Binnie has an audition?
Yes, Father-in-law. I guess they need a child actor for the drama that my brother is directing.
You're talking about that morning drama, right? That drama is so entertaining.
My wife and the maid lady watch that every morning, without missing a single episode.
So both my Binnie and Woo Ri will be part of the drama then?
No, Grandpa. There will a few more children that they will be auditioning. And it will be only one out of those children.
Wait a minute, wait a minute here. Then should we get an acting coach for the children so they can practice?
No, Father-in-law. My wife and I decided to help them practice.
The audition will be coming up next week too.
How can you and the children's mother be able to be their acting coach? Neither of you are even actors for goodness sake.
They should learn how to act through an acting coach, you know.
We're not being too serious here since we are just doing this so the kids can get some good experience.
But the girls will be disappointed if they don't make it though.
They might be going for a challenge, but they should just come out on television while they're at it you know.
- Am I right? - Yes, sir.
What is this?
That's a script for a drama. You are aware that your uncle is a director for a television series, right?
Yes Dad, but I have never seen it though.
Have you seen that drama?
I saw a little bit of it when my grandma was watching it but the character from there was throwing the stir-fried-glass noodles though. It's so scary.
Woo Ri and Binnie, both of you had acting lessons from your uncle and you girls told us that you wanted to become actresses, right?
So, that's why your uncle gave you this opportunity to go out for an audition.
Really?
Just because you go for this audition doesn't mean that you'll make it no matter what.
But this is still a good opportunity for you girls, so let's get some practice so you can go for it, okay?
Alright. I really want to do this Dad.
Me too. I really want to get the part.
But it's okay even if you don't make it.
Whether you make it or not isn't important at all. The most important thing about it is the fact that you girls are challenging yourselves.
Your daddy is saying this by his life experience. There is no such thing as everything working out on your first try.
That's true. There is a saying, "There is no satisfaction on your first try."
Yes, Woo Ri, you are so right. Shall we do some rehearsing?
Binnie will be practicing with me and Woo Ri will be practicing with Ahjussi. How about it?
Yeah, we like it!
Who the hell are you anyway? Why should I be living with you? I'm here so I can live with my daddy, okay?!
We are a family now. You, your dad and I, all three of us will be living together from now on.
That's nonsense! I totally can't believe this! I don't even want to see your face, ma'am!
What?! You don't want to even see my face?!
Hey girl, where did you learn how to talk like that? How dare you talk like that to me?!
That's ridiculous! Look, who's talking!
I heard everything that you told my grandma, okay?! I told you that I'm tired of hearing it.
I hate my dad, but I hate you even more! I'm going to go and live with my grandma!
But Bin,
look here. When you are saying something so important like this you should talk clearly and pronounce the words accurately.
Actors/actresses have to pronounce all words accurately. That's how the viewers will understand what you're saying, right?
Right.
Here we are. Let's try this again. Read this part right here, "That's ridiculous!"
That's ridiculous! Look who's talking.
I heard everything that you said to my grandma, okay?!
I told you that I'm tired of hearing it, okay?! I hate my dad but I hate you even more ma'am!
I'm going to go and live with my grandma!
That's nonsense! I totally can't believe this! I told you that I don't even want to see your face!
What?! You don't even want to see my face?!
Look here girl, where did you learn how to talk like that? How dare you talk like that to me?!
That's ridiculous! Look who's talking. I heard everything that you said to my grandma, okay?!
I told you that I'm tired of it! I hate my dad, but I hate you even more!
I'm going to go and live with my grandma!
Woo Ri, look here. In a situation like this you have to look at your fellow actor.
Naturally, a good actor/actress should have the eyes that are alive you know. Alright?
When it comes to the reaction for acting, it's all about how you make eye contact. You got that?
Yes, I got it.
Then over here.
Pretend that I'm the lady here on the script. And try to make eye contact with me as you're acting, okay?
Okay, from the beginning.
That's ridiculous! Look who's talking here.
I heard everything that you said to my grandma, okay?!
That's great. That's exactly what I was talking about.
Great!
How was it? Was Woo Ri doing good?
She's really good. What about Binnie?
Binnie also did very well. She was fully sensitive enough to bring her emotions out. That girl has talent.
But don't you think the lines are a bit intense for the children?
Do you think it would be okay for our children to be a part of this?
I know, right? I'm worried that this will harm the mental health of our girls.
My brother made this offer out of being thoughtful so I can't tell him that I can't send our kids there either.
Wait a minute here. Why is your stepmother teaching Binnie and your dad teaching Woo Ri?
You didn't even know that, Grandma? They been doing this for a while.
Dad has been good to Woo Young, Woo Ri and Woo Joo. While my stepmom has been showing concern for me and Binnie.
That's a good thing though. I think Woo Young's mother would be better at teaching the kid because she is so clever and all.
But Dad and Stepmom are worried about the audition day since they have to work on that day.
The grandma that lives with us can't make it since she is worried about being able to make it on time to pick up Woo Joo from kindergarten.
Is that so?
- Ahjumma. - Yes?
- That thing... According to that custody cooperation paper, you know the document for the custody cooperation thingy... - Yes, Ma'am.
According to that paper, we would be able to take the kids to the TV station, right?
She said that we will be treated the same as her actual in-laws on that paper, right?
That's true. There's no reason not to, Ma'am.
That's right! If the parents are busy then the grandparents should go with the girls.
- That's right! - Of course!
Don't you worry about that!
Eat, eat.
So, both of you will be taking the girls to the their audition on the audition day, yourselves?
Actually, we were thinking about asking my sister-in-law to help me out with this.
Why would you ask a favor like that of a pregnant person?
You have us and we live so close, too.
I think that's a good idea. We would be thankful if you helped us out.
Alright then. I heard that the role is a daughter of a rich family.
So what do you think about us buying the girls each a nice outfit? Huh?
They are doing this to get some experience out of this.
So you don't necessarily have to do that, right?
Is that right?
Yes, Ma'am. You can buy it for them next time, Mother-in-law.
Alright then. That's quite alright.
But folks...
- You won't be discriminating against Woo Ri with Binnie right? - Omo, omo, omo!
You're worrying about nothing. Why would we discriminate? We're not that kind of people you know. My goodness.
Then would it still be okay even if Woo Ri makes it and Binnie doesn't?
That's what worries us a bit to be honest with you.
That's right. It doesn't matter if the kids make it or not since this is all about getting them to experience something new.
Of course we wouldn't discriminate. It would be okay for Woo Ri to make it, you know.
It's all about who has the talent you know. Geez.
Don't you worry. I will be in charge of Woo Ri and my wife can be in charge of my Binnie. Okay?
Alright, I will be Woo Ri's manager, okay? So don't worry about a thing.
Oh, really.
The day you'll be going for the audition with Binnie,
the grandma and grandpa who live downstairs will be taking you girls to the audition place.
But Woo Ri, the grandpa will be following you around and take care of you like a manager.
Are you okay with that? You are not close with the grandpa though.
It's okay, Mom. I'm still a bit scared of the grandma who lives downstairs.
You remember how she treated me like a thief and kicked me out of her house.
So that's why I might not be close to them, but I still like the grandpa way more.
Let's see here. Which one would be the best here? This one, I think you should go with this one.
This one makes you look like a daughter of a rich family, right? You are so adorable my baby.
Wait a minute here. Should we even put a hat on you so you can look even prettier? A hat, wow.
My goodness, you look more like a princess with that one than a daughter of a rich family.
Your Highness.
This one looks pretty too.
Woo Ri, do you have any other clothes besides the ones in here?
I don't, Sir. That's all I have.
Okay.
Oh my goodness. Wow, look at this.
The rice will start cooking.
But, would it still be okay?
What is?
You are not worried about having my in-laws taking care of the girls?
They can talk a bit rough at times.
That's okay for Binnie, but I'm not sure if Woo Ri would be okay with it though.
It will be fine. Your in-laws won't be able to act like they used to anymore.
Both of them are in the palm of my hands now. Don't worry, I will take care of everything.
I wasn't here yesterday so I'm not sure what happened. I heard that Jin Joo quit, effective yesterday.
Why? Why did she quit?
I don't know the exact details but I heard that she called here all of a sudden yesterday and told someone that she'll be quitting.
Did he leave?
He left. He left with his shoulders looking all droopy. What's the matter? You guys were going great.
Just because. I think it's better for me to break up with him than to keep on dating.
I know that there is no relationship without a story, but still...
We should talk with Yeon Tae and her parents about setting up a date for all of us to meet, right?
Mom, what's with the meet up between the two families already?
You already went over to greet the parents. The only thing we have left is for both families to meet.
But Mom, do you think it would be okay for us to rush into both of the families meeting up while Tae Min is going through hardship?
He is right, Honey. I think you are being a bit impatient this time, Dear.
What are you talking about? Tae Min is Tae Min and Sang Min is just Sang Min you know.
Tae Min will take his time getting married. He is still young, right?
Let's settle your marriage first.
If we don't set up a date for both families to meet then we will have to come back from Kanghwa Island. That would be too much of a hassle you know.
- Oh, you're here. - Tae Min, you're home. Have you eaten dinner yet?
I'm not in the mood to eat right now, Mother.
Mom, Mom, Mom, you should stay out in the living room for a bit.
But still...
Mom.
Did you get to see your girlfriend?
I won't be able to talk it out with her if she isn't willing to meet up with me. I heard that she even quit the nail salon.
What about your phone calls? Does she answer your calls?
No, she doesn't answer.
Jin Joo, I don't believe your words about telling me that you are tired of it all.
I know very well that you love me very much,
just like how you know that I love you very much as well.
I'm very worried that you are crying somewhere. I miss you, Jin Joo.
Why did you quit the nail salon all of a sudden? I'm so worried that something has happened to you.
Jin Joo, baby, please give me a call.
What should I do, Tae Min?
I bet he is very hurt right now.
What's wrong? Tae Min doesn't want to eat his lunch again?
No, he doesn't want to eat.
You are aware that he hasn't eaten in days, right?
Why did Jin Joo break up with him all of a sudden?
How should I know that?
Will Tae Min be okay?
How can I not cry when you are saying such things?
There is nobody in this world that's strong from the day they were born.
If you say mean things like that, even a strong person will end up getting hurt you know.
Tae Min's Mom
Yes, Mother?
Hey, did you ask Tae Min to break up with you?
You told me that you didn't want to break up with Tae Min.
You're the one that wanted me to break up with Tae Min, Mother.
You are the one that hates me, Mother. And you are discriminating against me with your future oldest daughter-in-law, too.
Jin Joo, you are the one that said that you'll continuously date Tae Min whether I treat you like that or not.
You don't seem like that kind of girl, but why are you so impatient with no backbone to speak of?
Are you going to just give up on Tae Min just because you are having a hard time right now?
If I don't give up then would you approve of me continuously dating Tae Min?
There is nothing I can do except break up with your son!
I've been working really hard to be accepted by you, but I can't do this any longer because it's making me feel so low and shabby.
I want to stop making great efforts for being accepted by you when you hate me so much.
I'm not a puppy you know.
Look, who said that you're a puppy here, huh?
To be honest with you, I do understand where you are coming, Mother.
You have such a good son who is decent, like Tae Min, so I think it's only natural for you to want a wonderful daughter-in-law.
So, I just want to let Tae Min go.
My beloved Tae Min can't even eat right now. Why aren't you picking up his calls when you gave him such a shock like that?
I would want to see him if I did pick up his calls, that's why.
Then why did you pick up my call, when you didn't even pick up Tae Min's call?
This will be the last time picking up your call, too, Mother.
Stay healthy and live well.
Wait! Hold on a minute, Jin Joo.
Even if you're going to break up with him, you should have talked to him about it in person since that's a nicer thing to do.
What am I supposed to tell him?! You're the only reason for breaking up for goodness sake.
I'm breaking up because you hate me so much and it upsets and hurts me so bad!
Is it okay for me to tell Tae Min about this truth?
You're the one who said that you like my beloved Tae Min that much, so you should've started to gradually become further away from him.
My Tae Min
Mother, Tae Min is calling me right now.
I'm sorry, goodbye.
Jin Joo. Jin Joo? Ji...
What should I do?
To be honest with you, I wasn't quite satisfied with it,
but he was making a fuss that he wouldn't be able to live without Jin Joo, so that's why we approved of them being together.
Then I realized that he was the real deal you know.
Of course, of course. He was so smart and trustworthy too. He is a very proper young man and he is handsome like a sculpture, too.
Flower boy, flower boy!
Hello.
I came up here because of the laundry. The future mother-in-law doesn't like you?
Your family members all think that your future mother in-law likes you though.
You heard it all?
I didn't mean to hear all of that but I kept on hearing it so it couldn't be helped.
Please keep this a secret from my mother and my brother-in-law.
You should also let your family members know.
If you go through this alone, you will be sick in the heart.
Thanks for your concern, Ma'am.
That woman has no idea what her own daughter is going through.
But she would come over to our house and tell us what to do, for goodness sake.
Geesh, is the daughter that passed on the only child to them?
They should also pay attention to the daughter that is still alive. Tsk, Tsk.
They are so darn pathetic.
Let's go take a trip. You have a lot of time since you are on break anyway.
I seriously can't believe this.
I told you that I don't even want to look at your face!
I don't want to hear it! Look, who's talking here?! I heard everything that you said to my grandma, okay?!
I told you that I'm tired of it!
I hate my dad, but I hate you even more! I'm going to go live with my grandma!
Who the hell do you think you are to be living with us?! I'm here so I could live with my dad you know.
No, Binnie, look at Daddy. When you read your lines you should make your eyes look more intense, kiddo.
You should never act while your eyes are looking loose. Got that?
Look at Daddy. Look here.
- Like this. - Got it, Dad.
That's exactly it! Bring all that power into those eyes!
Who the hell do you think you are for you to live with us?! I'm here to live with my dad.
That's nonsense! I can't believe this! I told you that I don't even want to look at your face!
That's ridiculous! Look who's talking here. I heard everything that you said to my grandma, okay?!
I told you that I'm so tired of it! I want to live with Dad...
Woo Ri, you shouldn't just stumble through while you're reading your lines.
The character that you'll be playing will be a mean and smart girl, you know.
So, that's why you have to be more precise and say your lines in a provoking manner.
Try it again.
Who the hell do you think you are wanting to live with us?! I came here to live with my dad!
That's nonsense! I can't believe this! I told you that I don't even want to look at your face!
That's ridiculous!
- What were you doing? - I think they are practicing.
- What are you saying? - I was talking about something else.
Mom. The auntie who lives downstairs was very strange yesterday.
Downstairs Auntie?
I went out to take out the recyclables,
and she said that my teacher was waiting for her in front of house and she told me to lie to him saying that she was not home.
That's what she told you to say to the teacher?
That's why I told her that I didn't want to lie and she even took the recyclables away from me. She also didn't let me go outside, either.
Yes, it seems like that girl broke up with the guy she was dating.
During Binnie's birthday party, didn't Soo's grandma say that that guy's parents are professors?
Maybe that's the reason.
It looks like the guy's family is not satisfied with your sister-in-law.
So, are you saying that his parents are only good to Yeon Tae?
Yeah. She told me to break up with him,
but she really adores Yeon Tae though. She even urges her to hurry up and get married, too.
Does Yeon Tae also know about this?
No. I couldn't tell her because of my pride.
Then his parents don't even know about you and Yeon Tae being in-laws?
No. She hates me even though she has no idea about that, but if she finds out that we are in-laws
then she would hate me even more, right?
So what? There are lots of doubly related in-laws these days anyway.
That doesn't even matter since his mother hates me.
I thought about it using both of my brains.
It's better for me to call it quits.
Even though his mother hates me, I was still going to work at it.
I even called her to and invited her out to go see a play with me.
She told me that she didn't want to though.
But after seeing her being so nice to Yeon Tae, I was so hurt.
It's Yeon Tae, out of all people, so I get to constantly hear how his mother is treating Yeon Tae so well.
So, it makes me feel miserable.
My pride has been injured big time because I'm being compared with Yeon Tae.
But the important thing here is the fact that you still have feelings for Teacher Kim.
I did tell him to break up with me earlier but I really didn't mean that.
I don't want to break up with Tae Min, Brother-in-law.
Brother-in-law, I'm sure you know this by now. I have become a brand new person since I met Tae Min.
After I met Tae Min, I started to work at a part-time job. I even quit shopping and I stopped receiving allowance from my parents.
I had so much fun though.
Tae Min filled in the gap when my mom and dad were being indifferent towards me.
I also learned some life skills from Tae Min, too.
But Tae Min even proposed to me
and I didn't even dream that something like this would happen to me.
Brother-in-law, this is the first time I ever realized that I'm such a foolish human being.
I should've studied hard and gone to a good university. I should've graduated from a good university and got myself a good job, too.
Then Tae Min's mom would've liked me, too.
Don't say that. You are plenty beautiful the way you are, sweetie.
Brother-in-law, you and Tae Min are the only ones who say that to me.
But you can't ever say this to Yeon Tae, okay Brother-in-law?
Yeon Tae told me that she wants to get married.
This is her first time dating and I'm sure she is super happy right now,
so I don't want her to be concerned because of me.
But wouldn't it be better for Teacher Kim to find out about this?
Maybe Teacher Kim would be able to persuade his own mother, you know.
Tae Min really loves his mother, you know.
And his mother also really loves him too. So, how can I say something like that with those two in between?
But Bother-in-law, you really can't tell Yeon Tae this, okay?
Promise me.
Alright, I promise.
My Tae Min
Then Teacher Kim
doesn't know that his own mother has been treating Jin Joo that way at all?
I don't think he has any clue at all. What a clueless fool he is. I didn't see him like that though.
Oh my. You act as if you weren't that way.
Before I married you, Soo's maternal and paternal grandmothers all dragged me out there, but did you have a clue back then, huh?
Maybe not completely, but at least I partially knew what was going on, you know.
I even butted in, helped you fight them, persuaded them and I did everything I could.
That's true. I acknowledge it.
But you had no clue at all about the fact that Soo's maternal grandparents moved downstairs though.
Anyway, if I catch this Teacher Kim punk. I will just...
But Pro Kim and Teacher Kim being brothers gets in the way, too.
And if that family only adores Yeon Tae then I feel sorry for Jin Joo.
I know, right?
If Pro Kim's mother is a strange woman like that then shouldn't we not send Yeon Tae away to that household to get married?
Well, that's what I'm not sure about.
Is she really a strange woman or is it because of her undying love for her younger son?
Indeed, all mothers do lose all rational when it comes to their children.
Your mother is no different either.
Think about Soo and Woo Young.
What are you going to do if they bring home a girl that they want to marry that doesn't quite meet your expectations, huh?
I won't oppose it as long as they don't bring home someone with three children.
Let's go.
Woo Ri, get in.
Wait, wait a minute. You and Bin go ahead.
What? Why? Before we go to the thing called an audition,
didn't we decide to give the kids a tour of the TV station?
Woo Ri. Let's take a taxi to the TV station, okay?
Why?
It's just something.
You go on ahead, I will catch up with you.
We really are going to go first.
See you later.
- Don't be late. - Okay, I got it.
Doctor, how are the results? Are the results good?
What shall we prepare for?
Yoon In Chul, it's been six years since you had vasectomy, right?
Yes.
Like I informed you before the surgery, impregnation success rate
declines as time passes by.
I see.
But Mr. Yoon, according to the results of the examination here, your normal sperm count is not seen.
Pardon?
What do you mean, Doctor?
So, at the present time pregnancy is impossible.
Mom...
Hey now, hey now. What's the matter with you dear?
What happened? Huh? What about Son-in-law Yoon?
He went straight to the cafe.
What happened? Didn't you two go to the hospital?
What? Why? The result didn't come out to be good? Hurry up and tell me without crying, dear, okay?
Mom, I won't be able to have any kids.
They said that it would be difficult for In Chul to have kids now. What am I going to do, Mom?
What?! What are you talking about?!
That's what the result came out to be, Mom.
What do we do, Mom?
What do we do?
Don't cry.
Oh, what do we do now?
Mom...
Seriously? I can pick any one of these?
Of course. You can choose an outfit that's prettier than the one Binnie is wearing.
I think I will be scolded by my mother though.
I can fight with your mother for you, so it's okay.
Grandfather, are you able to beat my mother? My mom is very good when it comes to fighting.
Is that right? How about if we do this?
I won't be able to beat your mother so I can just get in trouble for you instead. Okay? That's allowed, right?
Yes.
Alright, go ahead and pick the one you like dear.
Is she your granddaughter?
Ah, yes. She is my granddaughter.
Your granddaughter looks just like you sir.
Really?
Geesh, for goodness sake. Woo Ri, she said that we are like carbon copies of each other.
But why isn't your grandpa here yet?
Hum? That's Woo Ri and Grandpa.
Huh? Hey!
Ta-da! We are here!
Woo Ri, you look so pretty seeing you dressed like that.
Really? Grandpa bought it for me.
Thank you, Grandfather.
Yes, sure, sure.
- Yoon Woo Ri? - Yes. Yoon Woo Ri is here.
Please follow this way.
Okay, I understand.
Do well, Woo Ri. Fighting!
Do well.
Let's go.
- Grandmother. - Yes?
Woo Ri looks better than me, right?
No. You look prettier than her.
Don't worry and just keep practicing the script.
Do you think the kids started the audition?
They probably did.
I don't know if they did but I'm getting nervous about it.
Who was it who said that whether they make it or not isn't important at all since this is all just part of the experience?
- Mom! - No,
how come our kids aren't coming yet?
They should be here, Honey.
Just sit down.
Grandma!
Thank you!
Binnie, I'm so proud of you, dear! So, did you do okay with that audition of yours?
You were also able to memorize all the lines without being nervous in front of people, too?
Yeah, I was so nervous but I did well, without making any slip-ups with the lines.
You did great!
Woo Ri, did you also do well? You weren't nervous or anything, Woo Ri?
I wasn't nervous at all, sir.
I did my best just the way I practiced it at home.
That's great. You are a smart girl.
I'm sorry but Jin Joo wouldn't answer her phone.
Jin Joo asked me to break up with her all of a sudden and she even turned off her phone, too.
I know this isn't a courteous thing to do but I came over here anyway.
Follow me.
Just drink exactly three shots.
Yes.
Oh no, let me...
Just let me pour you some first.
- Did you do well? - Yes.
Of course, of course.
Oh my, where did she get such a nice outfit?
Binnie's grandpa bought it for her you know.
The role for the drama is a girl from a rich family.
And we bought her an outfit so she could look like a girl from a rich family.
Is that right? Oh, okay. The outfit is pretty and nice looking, but
the children's mother won't like it though.
Both Mi Jung and I loathe kids that are too into extravagance.
I told the grandpa that but he said that he'll get in trouble for me, Grandma.
Did he now? Anyway, thank you for everything.
Thank you for also buying Woo Ri a nice outfit and taking care of both of these girls, too. Thank you for going through all that trouble.
What do you mean? We didn't go through any trouble at all. We also had fun getting to see the TV station because of the children.
Binnie, I'm pretty sure you felt this today but you also need to grow some confidence.
If you're going to be acting in front of people you should have a brazen face too.
You were also being all shy with the people that are working on the drama at the TV station.
You shouldn't do that. You should be going around greeting people energetically and show how smart you are like Woo Ri here.
Okay, Grandma.
That's right! You should speak loudly even on a normal day.
Excuse me.
Me?
Yes, I was talking about you. You, that lives down on the second floor.
The second floor. Yes, why?
It's good that you are taking care of your grandchildren but you should also pay attention to your daughter, too.
My daughter? What's wrong with my daughter? She is doing fine.
Dear. Dear, our Jin Joo...
There is something terribly wrong with Jin Joo.
What are you talking about?
What in the world? It seems like Teacher Kim's mother doesn't like Jin Joo so she told her to separate from him.
So, Jin Joo told Teacher Kim to break up because of that woman!
What? This punk...
Why do you think my sister-in-law asked you to break up with her?
♪ A love that's like my destiny, you're my only love ♪
♪ Even if you complain to me, you are so lovely and you are my one and only ♪

KBS 2TV WEEKEND DRAMA. FIVE CHILDREN. ~ Preview ~
Grandpa bought Woo Ri a nice outfit.
What do you mean?
It's the third floor.
- I'm not here. - What's wrong with you all of a sudden?
If both families find out that Pro Kim and Teacher Kim are brothers they will be in panic mode.
The result for the audition came out, folks.
So, who got the part?
The one that got the part is...
I'm not going to allow you to marry my daughter no matter what happens.
Please give me some time, folks.
Please say hello. They are my oldest son's
in-laws.
You should just give it up too, since it ended up like this.
Mom, please change your mind about this.
What if I won't change my mind.
