What do you think you're doing?
Can't you just follow my lead for once?
Hold on.
Relationships are all about seizing the moment,
so go for it.
Are you...
leaning in for a kiss?
What?
I'm sorry about that.
Let's go. I'm now hungry for some reason.
(Episode 29)
Women like to be wooed.
A packed lunch would be a nice example.
Did you really make this yourself?
Yes,
I'm actually quite a good cook.
What do you think?
It's delicious.
Didn't you say you weren't hungry?
I would eat this even if I weren't.
Here, join me.
It's really good.
How did you make this?
Are you sure you made this yourself?
Take your time. I'll bring you some water.
Normally, it'd be the wife.
I'm sorry.
You said you weren't on good terms.
It's actually a lie.
Sorry?
My mom made me say it.
She's embarrassed of my wife.
So are you embarrassed of her too?
No, on the contrary.
My wife...
didn't go to college, but she's still very wise.
Thanks to her, I was able to finish my education.
Who cares about college anyway?
We should get together sometime,
behind your mom's back.
- Of course. - Thank you for lunch today.
Next time, I'll be sure to buy.
Why are you eating ramyeon for lunch?
Did you eat the lunch I packed for you?
Some woman came by, and ate most of it actually.
Who would that be?
You know Cha Young Hwa, right?
She must've been starving because she ate it all herself.
Didn't you invite her to lunch?
Of course not. Why would I?
You know, this isn't as uncomfortable as it used to be.
Anyway, let's head out and get lunch.
It's all right. I'm good with this ramyeon.
You should get back to work.
Sure.
Still...
I spent a lot of time packing that lunch.
(Director Hong Myung Sook)
Mr. Cha, my goodness.
This is a surprise. Please have a seat.
I thought I'd stop by.
I'm glad you did. We'll be family soon anyway.
Yes, and it wouldn't be right to have two daughter-in-laws.
What do you mean by that?
His current wife is as good as gone.
They're separated.
The one that lives with you must be a ghost then.
Well...
I'm sorry. I guess I got ahead of myself there.
Don't tell me that you're here to break off the deal.
I won't wait for long,
and the prosecutors aren't yet done with your case.
Of course. I'll get rid of her soon.
I'm so sorry.
Is your husband on board too?
From what I gather, he's fond of her.
Besides, it's Do Hoon's opinion that counts the most.
By the way...
What is it?
I just can't wrap my head around it.
Why would you agree to letting her marry a single father?
Is there something I should know?
Every Jack has his Jill.
It's time Do Hoon found his, right?
Yes, of course.
His current wife didn't turn out to be the one.
I trust you to get everything sorted out.
Sure.
What brings you by?
Mr. Cha stopped by just now.
He wants this wedding over as soon as possible.
That's good, isn't it?
He has already been a huge help to us.
Something's not right.
Young Hwa may be divorced, but she's still a good catch.
Maybe she had a kid out of wedlock,
or is promiscuous beyond imagination.
No, I highly doubt it.
There's something going on, but I can't ask her point blank.
What would you do if there is an issue with her?
I'd call off this marriage instantly.
I'd rather go to prison than let Do Hoon marry her.
Anyway, I put Yoon on it, so I'll know what it is soon.
Yoon, it's me.
Hwangsil Women's Clinic?
Sure, I'll check it out.
I knew it. There was something going on.
What is it?
She's seeing an obstetrician.
I'll tell you what I find out.
Choi, it's me. Head to Hwangsil Women's Clinic.
Myung Sook can't know about Young Hwa's condition,
so do what you can to stop her.
Bring in the next patient.
(Obstetrician, Choi Yi Won)
And you are?
I'm here regarding...
your patient Cha Young Hwa.
How did it go?
I'm sorry, Sir, but I was too late.
I don't care. Just do what you can to stop her.
There's no need for that.
What do you mean?
It looks like Mr. Cha already took precautions.
Really?
Good.
Of course.
Mr. Cha wouldn't leave anything to chance. Good job.
He's meticulous as always.
I'm not allowed to tell you this,
but I will since you're going to be her mother-in-law.
Ms. Cha sees me for her routine checkups.
You do know that women should get them regularly.
Has she ever come in to get an abortion?
Has she had a child before?
No, of course not.
Is there a chance of infertility?
Don't worry, Ma'am. She's quite healthy.
This was silly of me then.
I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell her about this.
Of course.
I know it's used, but 150 dollars is a good bargain.
Why isn't the owner back already though?
How much for the cart?
You're the auto shop lady.
I didn't know you owned a junk shop.
Why on earth would you think that?
Sir, do you see this scratch?
I do.
Scratches in any case require a discount,
so how much is it?
You know, you should just stick to fixing cars.
Just tell me how much it is.
Who are you trying to fool again this time?
That's what you did with my car.
I want 1,000 dollars for it. That's 5 off the original price.
So this cart is more expensive than your car?
Are you comparing my car to this sweet potato cart?
Unbelievable.
Don't sell it to anyone. I'll get you your money.
Gosh.
And like that, I became a junk shop owner.
Could you pay your tab by the end of this month?
I'm afraid I can't wait another month.
You see, I'm closing shop.
Yes, thank you so much for understanding.
I haven't seen Nam Hui all day.
We're closing shop soon anyway,
so she said she'd rather stay home.
Good. Tell her to always stay home.
I'd rather she not work in the cold.
You know, you should really look for a job.
Mom, you can't tell Nam Hui this,
but this area has been approved...
I see you're all here.
Come on in and have a seat.
Would you like a hot beverage?
It's all right. I won't stay long.
Are things going well at the shop?
More or less, and we owe it all to you.
Why on earth do we owe him?
Sir, would it be possible...
to keep our shop open at least until spring?
There are things to wrap up, and we need to get new jobs.
Of course if that's what you need.
I felt bad kicking you out anyway.
Thank you, Sir. Thank you so much.
Sir, I'll buy the building from you.
How much was it again?
Forget about the down payment and tell me what it's worth.
Don't be absurd! Are you out of your mind?
I said I'd buy it, didn't I?
Mom, you know who I am,
and I always stay true to my word.
Sir, we should go and sit down with a realtor.
- I'm not selling. - Why not?
Why not? I'll make it worth your while.
It's not on the market.
Keep the shop open then and take care.
Sure.
He said he'd sell it to me.
This is a breach of contract.
He's only backing off because this area will be developed.
Developed?
So we won't have to leave?
No, we won't. He just wasn't being honest with us.
Anyway, don't tell Nam Hui about this.
She'll probably come out to work.
My gosh, I can't believe it!
I can now finally sleep at night.
How did it go?
Is there something wrong with Young Hwa?
No, she's in perfect health.
Now I can rest in peace.
Now you can focus on their marriage.
Out of the frying pan into the fire.
Maybe we should check to see if Mo Ah has health issues.
I'm sure it'll all work out.
What's there to worry when we have Mr. Cha on our side?
Yes, of course.
Anyway, once Mo Ah goes, I'll be coming after you.
Mr. Cha came to see me today.
- He did? - Yes.
He wanted us to quickly get rid of Mo Ah.
He doesn't want to wait.
So what do you think...
about making her stay at her aunt's?
At her aunt's?
We need to show Mr. Cha we're making progress.
While she's there, we'll think of a way for you to get divorced.
I thought the kids could have their wedding next month.
Yes, that's a great idea.
But don't you think a spring wedding would be better?
That actually does sound better.
You should talk with the in-laws,
and give them a hand.
Of course. While we're on the subject,
maybe Mo Ah can go home for a while.
It's all right.
Ever since you got here,
you haven't been able to visit, so sleep a few nights there.
Yes, this way you can focus on your health.
Are you sick, Mo Ah?
She has abdominal pain brought on by stress.
It must be because of your mother-in-law.
You should take this time to relax.
- Yes, Father. - I want to go too.
You can't. She needs to rest before the wedding.
Instead, I'll buy you whatever you want.
Yes, Grandma.
Good.
Can't I just stay here?
You should rest when you can.
I'll sign off on a vacation at work...
and drop by if I can.
- What about Jae Min? - He needs to study.
You can always go on a trip with your aunt.
That's not necessary.
I'll only be gone a few days.
Sure.
You want to set up a date?
Yes, of course.
It's up to the parents to get things rolling.
Don't worry about my husband.
He'll know about it when it's time.
Sure, I'll see you tomorrow.
Mo Ah's on her way out.
She's still here?
- I'm off, Mother. - Right.
Unwind and relax there and tell them I said hi.
Call me if you need me. I'll be right over.
I doubt anything will happen. Now off you go.
Do Hoon, we should talk.
I'm going to drop her off.
The car's already parked outside.
I'm sure she can go by herself.
Of course, Mother. I'll get going then.
I'll see you.
If only she was leaving us forever.
Tomorrow, we're officially...
meeting Young Hwa and her parents, so keep your schedule open.
- Tomorrow? - Yes.
Marriage happens faster when the parents get involved.
Shin Do Hoon?
He already has a wife.
He's divorced.
Still.
Why would we let her marry a single father?
That's just how it is,
so go ahead with the preparations.
I don't want to.
I've always done whatever you wanted me to do,
but not this time.
Your daughter is more important than money.
That's not the case.
Young Hwa...
is infertile.
What?
Did you just say that she's infertile?
- Says who? - I looked into it.
That's why she instigated the divorce.
I feel bad for not knowing.
This is absurd.
Because of her condition,
no other family would take Young Hwa in.
You're talking as if infertility is a crime.
Of course it's not,
but would you approve of an infertile daughter-in-law?
Honey, my friend's daughter was also diagnosed as infertile,
but she had a child after five years.
Young Hwa can also receive treatments.
You know her as well as I do.
She only divorced her ex because there wasn't a way.
She wouldn't have kept it from us, if there was hope.
Do CEO Shin and his wife know about her condition?
They don't. Only Do Hoon does,
and he's willing to marry her despite that.
He already has a kid,
so we're in luck.
Raising another woman's child isn't easy.
I'd rather tell her to live by herself forever.
That I can't agree to.
Anyway, this is the best for everyone involved.
So...
get Young Hwa on board.
Just play dumb when it comes to her infertility.
But Honey...
Good, you're here.
Things seem tense.
Young Hwa...
Honey, please.
Can I be excused?
What's up with Mom?
Did you two argue?
It's nothing.
Let's eat. What would you like?
You should take a nap. I'll fold these for you.
It's all right. I'm done anyway.
The others would die to see this.
Mo Ah?
Gosh.
I said I'd do it.
Goodness.
Mo Ah?
You really should buy new underwear.
Don't be absurd. I don't need new ones.
Where is everyone?
They went to a distant relative's wedding.
Isn't that right?
It's the niece of a distant relative to be exact.
They went to show off your marriage, not because they're close.
They'll be home tomorrow.
What's with that bag?
Mother said I should take some time off.
The wedding will take place soon, remember?
The near-prison experience sure made her softer.
So how's her temper these days?
The same as always.
She's very nice to me.
That's scarier if you ask me.
Where's Mo Hyuk?
He's studying in his room. You should go to him.
I see. Sure.
Guess who?
Mo Ah, I know it's you.
How did you know that?
Do Hoon just texted me.
You really are no fun.
Would it kill you to play along for once?
It should've been believable then.
You can sleep here. I'll bunk with Uncle.
It'll be weird sleeping alone in this room.
You can share a room with Auntie then.
Seriously?
Would it kill you to offer your company for once?
Compared to you, Do Hoon's way more affectionate.
By the way, how was your mother-in-law released?
With all the talk about her being arrested,
I thought she had no way out.
I heard that it was due to lack of evidence.
That's all I know.
I'm glad it all worked out.
You should rest then.
What are you doing?
I'm talking to the intellectually disabled.
Once you become a judge or prosecutor,
always look out for the disabled.
There's a limit to what someone like me can do.
Why? You're the most diligent public servant I know.
Gosh, thanks for that.
So where's Mo Ah?
She's in my room.
Are you already done talking to her?
There's not much to say.
We could always go out for a drink.
It's the chat room manager.
Bo Gum, you're logged in.
So how much does the sweet potato cart cost?
It's 150 dollars for a used one.
Don't lie to me, or I'll kick you out.
I asked around, and it costs 1,000 dollars.
That's not right.
Did she say 1,000 dollars?
Did you ask the price at a junk shop?
The one with the incredibly handsome owner.
No, the owner's ugly.
Anyway, thanks for letting me know how much it is.
Hang on.
Do the members meet offline sometimes?
No, we don't. Anyway, thanks for everything.
1,000 dollars?
Have I been talking to the auto shop lady?
That's absurd. She's too smart to be a member.
1,000 dollars?
I can't believe he tried to rip me off.
Now let's see. All I need is 150 dollars.
That's 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi...
- Gosh. - And 4, 5, 6...
What are you doing?
That's weird.
There's not enough.
Nam Koo, why do you think that is?
Don't look at me. It's not my fault.
- You and your old tricks. - That hurts!
I know we're in the clear, but this is still unacceptable.
It really wasn't me.
Don't you dare touch the money in the safe again.
Nam Hui, take out everything we have.
- We're going home. - Sure.
Unbelievable.
They always accuse me first.
Darn.
It really wasn't me.
You must be on your way home.
I guess I'm right on time.
You've probably been waiting for to me close.
Nothing gets pass you, does it?
I'm here for my next lesson.
So how's your business relationship coming along?
Good, thanks to you.
The girl you're interested in sounds a lot like someone I know.
Who?
Someone who has everything going for her.
She's nothing like the rich girls I've seduced all these years.
How did you get her to like you?
She may seem tough,
but she likes men who are pure.
I'm also manly, handsome,
with a strong sense of justice.
How could she not like me?
Why did you two break up?
It seems like you were fond of her.
That's why I broke it off.
Keeping emotions out of business is a rule I always keep.
That's enough about me though.
Why did you get a divorce?
Weren't you and your wife tight?
I wanted a better life.
Don't you already have everything?
When I was broke, I thought love was all I needed.
However, that wasn't the case.
We were just too different.
You know,
others can think that way, but you shouldn't.
No one is too different, and we can all be met halfway.
It's too late now.
Besides, the more we tried,
the more distant we became.
He must be already be getting along with Young Hwa.
My gosh.
Do Hoon?
How much did he drink?
The divorce must've hit him hard.
Is that what he said to you?
He feels sorry, so if they could reconcile...
I'm sorry,
but that's none of your business.
I don't know what he said to you, but forget about it all.
I'm sorry about breaking the deal.
It's all right. I did suffer for a few days longer,
but things actually turned out better.
That's what people call a win-win.
Anyway, congratulations on your safe return.
My gosh, Do Hoon. Do Hoon?
Unbelievable.
You've got to be kidding me.
Why are you at work? I said I'd sign off on your leave.
I'm not here to work. I came to drop off lunch.
Just promise me you'll eat this alone.
Sure. Thank you.
I see Mo Ah's here.
How are your aunt's family?
Yes, they're all good.
What's this?
I packed some lunch for Do Hoon today.
You should join him.
I'm afraid Do Hoon and I have plans.
I'm sorry, I guess I forgot.
Mo Ah, you should join us.
I'm introducing him to my VIP clients,
so I guess it'll be fine.
It's okay. I don't want to intrude.
I'm still too nervous to meet clients of yours.
You never change, do you?
Anyway, let's go.
I'll get going then.
I don't understand why I have to be here too.
Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be happy to see them.
Who would I be happy to see?
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
Not at all. We only just arrived ourselves.
- Please have a seat. - Sure.
Young Hwa, you're practically glowing.
It's actually Mr. Shin who looks as handsome as ever.
You should just address him by his name.
Yes, you should. I'd actually like that better.
Sure.
I still can't get over how sweet he seems to be.
Don't you agree?
You should've brought your wife.
Hang on.
His wife?
I heard that he's divorced.
Do Hoon, didn't you tell her the truth?
Well, I...
He's sometimes too kind for his own good.
I bet he didn't say anything for the sake of his son.
Anyway, they actually split up ages ago.
If you want to be sure, ask your dad.
I forgot to tell Young Hwa about that.
Anyway, we should order lunch.
How could we?
We should leave and let them talk.
Of course.
Can I ask why you seem so glum?
Is it because you're not satisfied with my son?
Of course not.
My daughter is the one who isn't good enough,
so I hope you'll be fond of her.
Don't be absurd. She's nothing but perfect.
Are you...
Are you sure that Do Hoon's divorced though?
Of course he is.
I didn't say anything because I was embarrassed.
I'm sure you understand.
Which time were you telling the truth?
I want to know.
I am divorced.
I'm sorry.
Of course.
Only a pig would've agreed to a blind date while still married.
Just so you know,
I didn't know it was a blind date.
You must've been disappointed to see me.
- I wasn't. - Well, I was.
What?
I don't want to date my business partner.
Anyway, let's not be forced into anything our parents want.
Are we done then?
Since we're here, we'll have a cocktail.
Just put in a good word for me at home...
and say that I'm a heartless brat.
Which drink do you prefer?
I like the cosmopolitan.
I'll order tequila.
Isn't that too strong?
Drinking is something I'm good at.
Besides, it's appropriate for someone who was dumped.
Gosh, he's heavy.
So much for being good at drinking.
Where do you live?
Mr. Shin.
Mr. Shin!
Do Hoon, wake up. Where do you live?
Taehwaroo.
What was that again?
Taehwaroo.
Bongcheon-dong,
Gwanak-gu, Seoul.
(Taehwaroo)
Am I in the right place?
Do Hoon, you're home. Now wake up.
Are we in the right place? I don't think we are.
Why are we here?
You told me this was your address.
- Did I? - Yes.
I drove you here because you kept repeating this address.
So what is this place?
It's where I used to work.
Before I found my parents,
this is where I lived.
I see.
It's nice.
Did you go on deliveries on that bike?
I did.
She's my little pony.
So that's why you were good on a bike.
This is new.
What do you mean?
Finally, I see you under that layer of steel.
Would you like to go inside?
I'll make you a bowl of jjajangmyeon.
Do you know how to make it?
I was next in line...
to win the restaurant.
Sure, Auntie. All you need is chili pepper powder.
All right.
What's Do Hoon doing here?
Isn't that Cha Young Hwa?
I'll take a rain check on that. We should go home.
Young Hwa.
How did you find our date today?
Were we on a date?
Yes, I guess we were.
So what would you say if I asked you out for real?
(I Am Sorry, but I Love You)
