Are you the husband of the late Ms. Jung?
I am.
Could you sign this for me?
Her family wants to bury her, so all I need...
is your signature.
Just cremate her.
That's not her family's wishes.
Hey.
(Cremation)
Don't you know who I am?
- I do. You're from TMO Group. - Then...
just cremate her.
- You didn't have to come. - I won't stay for long.
Gosh, look how gaunt you are.
It'll help me sell the lie.
Did you make sure that she'd be cremated?
Yes.
Good. That way, we'll leave no evidence.
Is anyone in her family suspicious?
Of course not. They believe that it's Mo Ah.
While we're at it...
Do Hoon, how have you been?
Hello, Ma'am.
What are you doing here?
I'm here for Do Hoon.
It seems like you two have grown closer.
Our friendship seems to run deep.
Do Hoon was upset about his ex-wife,
so we had drinks recently.
Anyway, hang in there.
All right. I'll head inside...
and leave you two to talk.
How did things go at the police station?
I was in no shape to help.
As you can see, I'm a free man.
I'll pay my respects, and we'll have a drink.
You should go home.
I didn't call you because there was no need to.
What kind of a friend would that make me?
Please.
I'm not on good terms with her family.
I should've known.
Of course they're not fond of the ex-husband.
It's nice of you though...
to stick around like this.
Follow Nam Koo...
and bring him home if he wanders off.
I'll head back inside then.
Until next time then.
I wonder why he's here.
Did someone he knows die?
I shouldn't have come.
Nam Sil.
Were you worried that I'd be out grifting again?
You seem disappointed that I'm not.
I took extra precaution, so how did you know?
You're really bad at tailing people.
You never consider to hide.
So why are you here?
Wasn't that friend the groom of the wedding you attended?
He is. His ex-wife passed away.
You're lying.
If you weren't, you'd have placed a flower.
Unbelievable. Do you want to see if it's true?
Sure. I'd like to see for myself.
Thank you, Mo Ah,
for being alive.
If you weren't, I'd be in so much guilt.
Don't you turn up again though.
Our ties should end here.
Don't hate me even if you really are in a mess.
I heard you're cremating her.
You made the right choice.
What do you mean we're cremating her?
I signed the application.
Do Hoon, it's best if we bury her.
You should cremate her. That's the trend these days.
If that's the case, do it for yourself.
Also, who allowed you to make the decision?
I'm sorry.
I'll leave you to it then and get going.
I can't believe I let her fool me.
Do Hoon, we should just bury her.
Mo Ah asked...
to be cremated.
I'm sure she didn't mean it.
People rarely do when they're still young,
so just do as we suggest.
Let's cremate her.
What's gotten into you?
You wanted a burial as well.
Cremate her and be done with it.
We should pack up this funeral as well.
Are you insane? What's gotten into you?
I'll ask you one last time.
Is Mo Ah really dead?
Yes.
This is her.
Mo Hyuk, come on.
Don't do this in front of your sister.
Let go of him already.
See?
This is why I was told not to come.
Let's go. It's rude to watch people argue at funerals.
Just a second.
I know that you're upset,
but this isn't appropriate.
Is that woman...
really my sister?
- Answer me. - What's gotten into you?
Mo Hyuk, stop causing a scene in front of Mo Ah.
Let's go already.
Mo Hyuk, Mo Hyuk!
Who's he?
Probably the ex-wife's brother.
Why were they arguing...
at her funeral?
Because Do Hoon's guilty I guess.
Is Do Hoon a friend of yours?
You saw him earlier.
He's the TMO Group's CEO's son, Shin Do Hoon.
I see. So that's his name.
Did they agree to cremate her?
Whatever they decide is out of my hands now.
Anyway, we did a good deed thanks to you.
We held a funeral for a Jane Doe.
Mo Ah's family did all the heavy lifting.
Now that Mo Ah is taken care of,
I can go back to enjoying my peace and quiet.
Shouldn't you be planning...
for Do Hoon to become CEO?
You saying that almost sounds like a threat.
I'm the one who's terrified.
Faking Mo Ah's death was your idea.
Ideas are easier to come up with than putting them in motion.
It was you who put everything together.
Don't tell me...
that I'm your next target.
What a terrifying joke.
Anyway, I'd rather take this time to look after Jae Min.
Jae Min, you need to study.
I want to see my mom.
My gosh.
Jae Min, why are you crying?
Grandma, I don't want to study.
I want to see my mom.
Don't study if you don't want to.
That's not something a mother should say.
She's not my mom!
That's not how you talk to your mom.
She's not my mom.
She isn't my mom!
You don't have to call me "Mom" yet.
Just stick to my name.
That's absurd. He can't call you by your name.
But that's how it should be.
Would you be able to call a stranger "Mom" too?
Mom...
I'm glad you talked me into going to the police.
Did you see how strong I was with Nam Koo?
I certainly did.
What's not the point though.
People are nice to me at first...
until they find out I'm intellectually disabled.
I'd love nothing more than to work a normal job.
If I were hiring, I'd definitely pick you.
Why?
You make people around you smile.
Really?
What else?
You're pretty and honest.
All right. I'm declaring war on Nam Koo.
Kang Nam Koo. I'll punish you in the name of justice.
Nam Sil, take cover.
Right now!
What do you think of my resume?
(Resume)
Nam Hui,
I could always hire you as a regular employee.
I'm not doing this for money.
I want to experience the world.
Nam Sil...
The auto shop provides that as well.
It's all very much the same.
He's right. Now hand it over.
For lunch, we'll have your favorite fish stew.
Don't bother.
I'm going to get a job, so don't stop me.
Where are you going to work?
At a clothing store. I have an eye for things.
You can't.
Your legs will hurt from standing all day.
It's all right. I'm going to do this.
Thanks, Nam Sil.
Me? For what?
You helped me fill out my resume.
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have dreamed of this.
I'll get going then.
Nam Sil, did you really suggest that she do this?
I'm sorry.
Nam Hui, Nam Hui!
Nam Koo.
Can't you support her just this once?
She's awfully excited.
It's not that I want to.
You're worried that the rejection would crush her,
but isn't that part of the experience as well?
Anyway, you should follow her.
What? Why me?
I'm worried about her,
but she'll hate it that I'm there.
Don't be a worrywart.
You suggested this, so it's your responsibility.
All right, fine.
(Resume)
I see you're intellectually disabled.
I am, but I'm perfectly capable of functioning in this world.
Can you try to sell clothes to that customer over there?
Excuse me, can I get some help?
I'm sorry, but you're too fat for this color.
Unbelievable!
This would look better on you.
This interview is over.
Why?
You can't tell a fat person that they're fat.
How can they find what fits then?
I can't sell clothes that don't fit them.
Do you like it when people call you stupid?
I'm fine with it.
You should go. I need to get back to work.
I don't care if you reject me, but there's no need to be rude.
I can tell that I'm older too.
Fine, all right. I'm sorry. Are you satisfied?
Truth be told,
I'm not fine with people calling me stupid.
I heard it so much that I learned to live with it.
I try very hard, you know.
I study Chinese characters and keep a diary.
Anyway, people can lose weight,
so what's so wrong about telling them that?
Leave or I'll call the police.
The police?
I hope nothing went wrong.
Nam Sil followed her, so I'm sure she's fine.
Why are you crying?
Nam Hui, you can tell me what happened.
It's all right.
I was told off for telling a fat customer...
that she was fat.
It's all right. You did nothing wrong.
Don't cry.
- Mom. - It's all right.
Look at me. It'll be all right.
What happened today is that...
I know that she did nothing wrong.
Now you know why we weren't supportive.
Still, shouldn't she try again instead of giving up?
Do you find this fun? Are you enjoying the challenge?
She's able to work here because we're family.
It wouldn't be possible without me or my mom.
If only others were as understanding as us.
I know that you're trying to help,
but you're only hurting my sister.
It was a hard day for everyone.
We sent her off in peace,
so I'm sure she found her way to her afterlife.
Honey, I know how hard this was for you.
We should eat.
Shin Ae, go and buy some pork belly.
Mom, don't be absurd.
There's no need to act like nothing happened.
I won't let her get to me.
I need to restore my energy.
What now? Gosh, haven't you said enough?
She took her own life because...
she didn't care about any of us.
I've mourned for her enough, and that's all she deserves.
Now go and buy the pork belly.
Should I really go?
Don't be ridiculous.
Who on earth has a barbecue after a funeral?
Is that what you plan to do after I die as well?
If you're not going to, I'll go instead.
I'll treat myself to a feast.
Mom...
Should I just go instead?
No, just leave her be.
Good. That way, we'll leave no evidence.
Is anyone in her family suspicious?
Of course not. They believe that it's Mo Ah.
Gosh, were you home all this time?
I can't believe you missed Mo Ah's last moment.
I didn't want to see it.
We all didn't want to.
Anyway, it's still not too late.
Chun Soo, what will you do...
if she's still alive?
How can she be when we just had her funeral?
That's why I said if.
If? Well, I don't know.
Both the autopsy result and...
Do Hoon said that it's her,
- so how can it be wrong? - Right.
Saying otherwise would only make me look crazy.
What on earth are you talking about?
Has the shock messed with your head?
This explains why you picked a fight with Do Hoon.
There's something I need to do.
Mo Hyuk, where are you off to?
Gosh.
Goodness, you seem exhausted.
My poor son had to pay his respects to a stranger.
How can you say that when Mo Ah's family is devastated?
It serves them right for planning to sue.
If they hadn't, we wouldn't have done this.
It's all over now.
I need you...
to promise me one thing though.
What do you mean?
Don't do something like this behind my back again.
You're right. I'm sorry about that.
But I didn't want to fool you.
I just wanted to keep you from getting your hands dirty.
Don't worry, it's all over now.
All you need to do is focus on work.
Sure.
What now?
Are you here for a second round?
I'm busy, so go.
I came to apologize.
Come to think of it, I think I made a mistake.
Mo Ah would've been angry with me.
She's dead, so you're off the hook.
Right.
She's dead.
I'll forget about what happened,
since I understand how you feel.
If you need any help,
don't hesitate to call.
Thanks.
I knew I could count on you.
You should go now.
Hi, Young Hwa.
Keep thinking that way so I can find Mo Ah.
I thought you'd go home to rest.
There's somewhere we need to go.
It's time we registered our marriage.
I see you haven't forgotten about me.
Of course not.
I can't thank you enough for being so understanding.
We should hurry home afterward.
I was thinking about heading home early for Jae Min anyway.
- Why? - You'll see.
He's been like this all day refusing to eat.
Jae Min, let's eat out with Young Hwa today.
No, I want to see Mom.
Mom...
Jae Min, please.
You're probably tired, so go and get some rest.
Jae Min, let's play.
My gosh.
Young Hwa, are you all right?
Jae Min, how dare you!
I want to see Mom. Let me go to her!
Why don't you and I do some arts and crafts?
I don't want to. I don't want to!
Let me go to my mom.
You need to get scolded.
Don't do that to him.
Do Hoon, calm down.
Why won't you listen to us?
I hate you!
I want to live with Mom.
Mom...
You can't because she's dead.
Young Hwa!
What on earth are you talking about?
She's well and alive in the US.
Jae Min, I'll take you to the US to see her.
You can't see her anymore.
You know what I mean. She's not alive anymore.
It's not a lie. I'm telling you the truth.
She passed away.
How dare you say that to a little boy.
You can't possibly hide this from him forever.
He should know anyway.
How can you not know that it's for his own good?
- Liar! - You...
You're out of your mind.
She's not dead.
She told me to wait for her.
She said she'd be back...
with snacks for me to eat.
Mom...
How could you do this without asking me first?
I'm sorry.
I felt so bad for him that...
I thought he'd be better off knowing.
He wasn't ready for that news.
The earlier, the better.
Dragging it out will only deepen his wound.
Don't you think you were cruel to him?
Lying to him constantly is crueler if you ask me.
What are you up to?
I found it.
Isn't this the community center website?
It's for Nam Hui.
The community center helps find jobs for the disabled.
It's run by the government, so it'll be safe for her.
Don't bother. It'll still be the same.
- Nam Hui! - Stop it already.
The community center?
She still has to deal with her employer.
I told you that it won't be different.
Of course it is. The government's involved.
Don't you agree?
It does seem that way.
Nam Koo, can't I apply?
I'll do what you tell me to do.
Give her your approval.
I'd be against other places as well,
but we can trust a community center.
This is her life we're talking about, so answer carefully.
Worry about your life instead of my sister's.
Nam Hui, promise me that you won't go.
Sure, I won't.
See? That's it, so don't mention this again.
Are you really going to pass up on this opportunity?
Of course not. I declared war on him, remember?
This is now a guerrilla warfare.
Gosh, you're really smart. Don't you agree?
I'm not sure about this.
Nam Koo will be upset when he finds out.
I'm here to apply for a job for the disabled.
You can leave it there.
The person in charge will call you with an offer.
Sure.
- Thank you. - No problem.
(Welfare Division, Kong Chun Soo)
(Hannam Community Service Center)
This is a surprise.
Fancy seeing you here.
Are you saying that you're a public official?
No way.
Is it so surprising that I am one?
You're not like the public officials I know.
They're incredibly scary.
Are you saying I'm not intimidating enough?
Just so you know, I really do work here.
Unbelievable.
Can you be one even though you're this clumsy?
Gosh. Did you just call me clumsy?
Forget about it.
It's not like I'm begging you to believe me.
So what about you? What are you doing here?
I'm here to get a job.
What about your job at the auto shop?
Besides, this isn't the place you look for jobs.
I have my reasons.
It's me who's been having it worse these days.
I'm actually thinking about changing careers.
You know...
What if I worked at your auto shop?
You could teach me.
Working there isn't easy, you know.
That's why learning from you would be better than...
learning from a stranger.
We have a new employee anyway, so we're done hiring.
I could work for a year without pay,
so please consider it.
Do you want to work there so badly?
I'm not one to work as a public official.
And there goes your chance.
If only you hadn't lied about being a public official.
I'm not. I don't have a job at all.
Are we good? Now can you hire me?
I can't. We don't hire those that go back on their stories.
You're unbelievable.
Anyway, what do I do now?
I could ask the same thing.
Mo Hyuk only has three months left to study for the bar,
so this will affect him.
Mo Ah's death won't be easy to forget.
If he cared about her, he'd keep on studying.
- Mom, Mom! - Who's that?
Mom!
Gosh, you startled me.
Nothing can possibly surprise me now.
What is it now?
Mo Hyuk's throwing out his books.
He should get rid of what he doesn't need.
That's not it.
He's throwing out those he need for the bar exam.
What?
Hello?
When's the deadline for TMO Group's new recruit application?
I'll call you back.
What's going on?
Don't tell me you're giving up the bar exam.
I am. I won't be taking it.
What?
Why? You only need to study a few more months.
I'm not in the right mind to study, and I'm not sure I'll pass.
Is this because of Mo Ah's death?
I don't want to cook or work at the restaurant either.
I'm sick of it all.
But we can't stop living because she's dead.
I don't want to waste my time anymore.
I'd rather get a job and earn money.
That you can do after you fail the exam.
This is the last year to take it, so how could you give up?
It's my life and my decision.
Your life?
I know I don't have the right to stop you,
but I'm not saying this for me.
Mo Ah put you through school, and she wouldn't want you to quit.
So go look for a job...
once you've actually taken the exam.
Honey.
What a jerk.
That's weird. Why does he suddenly want to quit?
He probably wants to earn money and get out of this house.
Then you should've reasoned with him instead of telling him off.
You know how heartbroken he must be.
Throw your books away, and I'll kick you out!
I could send him to study abroad.
No, he's too young for that. If only he were a few years older.
- Mom. - What now?
Jae Min won't talk.
Leave him be. He's probably too sad to talk.
That's not it. I'm saying that he can't talk.
What?
Jae Min, what's wrong?
It's weird. He can't seem to talk.
What's wrong? Maybe he has indigestion.
He hasn't eaten anything though. I wonder what's wrong.
Jae Min, do you know who I am?
What's wrong with him? Since when did he stop talking?
I don't know. He seemed fine until...
his birth mother came up.
Did you mention her to him? How could you?
He said he wanted to see her, so I only comforted him.
Gosh.
Oh my, look at this.
This must be why he's so upset.
Whose is that?
It's his birth mother's.
Shouldn't we tell Young Hwa about this?
Jae Min, oh dear.
What should we do?
Jae Min, can you hear me?
Then why can't you say anything?
He's probably in shock because of his birth mother.
Still, this is absurd.
What's wrong?
He can't seem to talk.
Jae Min, would you like me to buy you jjajangmyeon?
It's not like him to say no to that.
You should answer when an adult speaks to you.
Yes or no. Why is that so hard?
This is why I told you not to tell him.
Now look at what you've done.
Jae Min, your mother really is in the US.
You believe me, don't you?
That's enough. You're making things worse by lying to him.
Just let him be.
What?
- Would you say that if he's yours? - Mother!
How could you say that to him?
Kids are like this.
They cry or don't talk if that's what they want to do.
Young Hwa, I don't think that's it.
I think...
he has aphasia.
What? Aphasia?
(I Am Sorry, but I Love You)
The community center?
You shouldn't have encouraged her!
Are you mad that you went to prison because of me?
That's right. I hate your guts!
You shouldn't say that. Not you of all people!
You're...
I already applied.
It has to be TMO Group.
I heard Do Hoon talking to his mom.
Mo Ah is alive.
Class President, Kang Nam Hui.
Top Excellence Award for Writing.
I came across Nam Hui's school awards.
She became disabled after being in a car accident at a young age.
If you want, I'll stop working at the auto shop.
I'll stay at home all day.
