I thought he'd give up...
if he knew Seon Woo is my son.
He still wants to marry you two off.
It can't be.
How...
You didn't have to come outside.
Get home safely.
I will. Don't worry too much.
I won't.
Bye.
It can't be. Soo In's mother...
is my mother.
Does that mean we are siblings?
No, it can't be. Something's wrong.
I must have heard her wrong.
How...
How could this be?
(Chungil Flour)
Come in.
Did you ask for me?
Yes. There's something I'd like to ask you.
Sure. Go ahead.
What is Soo In's mother called?
Soo In's mother?
Yes. I'd like to send her a gift,
but I only know her address.
I don't want to ask Soo In.
I thought that maybe you'd know.
Oh, I do.
I think it's Lee Young Sun.
Lee Young Sun?
Yes.
Is something wrong, sir?
No, nothing. Thanks for telling me.
You can leave.
Okay.
It's Kim Seon Woo.
Lee Young Sun, the woman I asked you to find.
Is she really dead?
You told me she's dead. You said she's dead!
What happened? Tell me what happened!
Young Sun.
Will you never tell your son that...
you're his mother?
You said he thinks you're dead.
You're alive and well. Shouldn't you two meet up?
I can't do that.
You're family. How can you ignore each other...
when you know of each other?
It can't be helped.
Seon Woo will be devastated if he were to find out.
Maybe not now, but after he leaves Soo In and the wounds heal.
Do you think you could tell him the truth then?
You have to see him so often and yet you can't...
call his name or hug him.
Tell him you're his mom when the time is right.
Tell him you're alive, okay?
It's best he thinks I'm dead. For his sake, not mine.
Hello, Yoon's Soup.
It's Seon Woo.
Hello.
Can I...
hold your hand?
Your hand is so warm.
Hello.
Thanks for coming to see me.
What's wrong?
I'm just a little tired.
Is something the matter?
A lot has been on my mind and it's draining me.
I just wanted to see you.
I asked you...
not to come and see me.
Mother.
Don't even call me like that anymore.
I feel uncomfortable.
I'm sorry. I must leave.
Excuse me.
Dad.
What should I do now?
The mom I thought was dead is alive.
But she's...
She's Soo In's mother.
How could this be?
Dad.
What should I do now?
Now that Mr. Hong quit,
shouldn't we hire someone else?
A new delivery guy? For the time being...
let's do it ourselves.
Why? Do you know of someone?
No. It's just that I have a feeling we might have to move soon.
What?
Let's move to a nice three-floor building in the city center...
and stop selling things like this.
Let's start a business that's flashy and requires less energy.
What are you talking about?
I'll tell you when the time is right, so you just wait.
Dad took it? And spent it already?
Yes. As down payment for a building.
He can't afford the rest of the payments.
My money is as good as well gone.
I'm so sorry.
You must have saved up for years for yourself and Ji Hoon.
I need to leave him with someone so I can work.
How would you like to work at my boutique?
At your store?
Yes. One of my colleagues quit recently...
when she got married.
I don' know anything about design.
What can I do?
You'll sell clothes and manage the store.
I'm sure you'll do well.
You said you worked at a sewing factory once.
I'll ask the designer for you.
Will you do that?
Yes. I'm sure she'll like the idea.
Are you really going to raise Ji Hoon on your own...
and live alone?
What do you mean?
Can you really...
not marry Mr. Kim?
I still don't understand why you broke up.
Can't you tell me the truth?
We can't marry.
Mr. Kim and I just can't be together.
Why not? Why do you keep saying it can't be?
Where have you been, leaving your office for so long?
What? Is something wrong?
No.
I went to Dad's grave.
What for?
What's going on? Is something bothering you?
Grandma.
Yes. You can talk to me.
I'm really sorry for everything so far.
Why are you apologizing?
I wronged you so much,
not knowing how you felt.
I'm sorry.
What are you talking about?
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
I just wanted to apologize because I felt as if...
I'd upset you too much.
If you know that much, don't upset me again.
I won't.
I'll let you get back to work.
Grandma, I know you kept it from me...
to save me the pain.
I'm sorry and grateful.
I'll do the same for everyone.
I'll pretend I don't know and move on.
For everyone I love.
- Mr. Jang. - Yes?
Have you noticed Seon Woo acting strangely?
How do you mean?
He told me he went to his dad's grave,
but I got the impression that something's very different.
Do you think it's about Madam Lee?
He thought she could be alive,
but now he's heard she's dead.
Maybe he's in shock.
It's a relief if that's it.
Can you keep a close eye on him for me?
Maybe it's just old age,
but I just feel terribly uneasy.
Yes, I'll watch him, ma'am.
Here's the list of inventory.
Thanks.
Isn't it tough working when it's hot?
It's fine.
The more noodles we sell, the better it is for everyone.
Tell me whenever you need something.
I will, right away.
Mr. Ko.
What is it?
I saw Ms. Yoon a while ago in Seoul.
You saw Soo In?
Yes, I saw her...
and her son.
Oh, did you see him too?
Yes.
What is her husband like?
Why would you ask that?
I'm just curious.
Oh, well...
Jeong Wook.
Hi, Se Young. I'll let you talk.
I have to work.
I heard everything from outside.
Did you see Soo In?
We just met by chance in the street.
Why didn't you tell me you saw her?
I was afraid you'd get upset when it's really nothing.
Then why did you ask about her husband?
Why do you care about him?
I didn't mean anything.
Don't overreact.
Why ask about Soo In if it's really nothing?
Why are you acting like this...
about another married woman?
I can't stand hearing about Soo In.
Don't provoke me by mentioning her ever again.
Will you stop overreacting and exhausting me?
What? I overreact and exhaust you?
I'm not off work yet. Get out so I can focus.
What are we doing at a restaurant?
And why did you make me dress up in the summer heat?
You've been through a lot these past few days...
and we didn't exactly see eye-to-eye.
Let's enjoy a nice meal and get over it all.
Okay, then. Let's have a nice meal together for once.
- Man Pyo. - What?
You're actually here to meet someone.
Who?
So, the truth is...
Jae Man set this up so you could meet a young lady.
That's why we're here.
What? Sook Hee.
How could you do this to me?
I knew you'd react this way,
but if you walk out,
Jae Man will really make you pay.
The lady's from a very good family.
Meet her just this once.
No.
Man...
Hello there.
Come and sit down.
Did you find the place easily?
The streets weren't too complicated.
I'll introduce each other.
This is my brother, Hong Man Pyo.
This is Kim Eun Sook.
Hello.
Man Pyo. You should say hello.
I'm Hong Man Pyo.
I'll leave you to enjoy the meal.
Take your time and chat all you want.
Sook Hee. Sook Hee.
Hi.
(CEO Jung Jae Man)
Honey.
Did you introduce the two?
Yes. I left after seeing they'd met.
Do you think the lady likes him?
I don't know, I only introduced them.
They need to talk and find out.
Do what you can to marry the two off.
She's from a very good family.
Man Pyo won't find another match like her.
I know that.
I'm sure Man Pyo knows the woman's out of his league.
Are you sure he's completely over the cafe madam?
Of course he is. That's why he agreed to this meeting.
I think...
it would be best if I told you the truth.
I came here not knowing you'd be joining.
Had I known it were a date, I wouldn't have shown up.
- Is that so? - Yes.
I'm actually...
in love with someone else.
But my family doesn't approve.
My brother-in-law wants me to marry someone else.
That's why he set up this date.
Why do you keep on smiling?
It's quite a coincidence.
What is?
I'm in the exact same predicament you are.
I love this man, but my family disapproves.
They forced me to meet you.
- Did they? - Yes.
We're comrades then.
We are.
It must be so hard trying to persuade your family.
I'm dying myself.
It's so tough.
Since we're both in the same boat,
we might as well enjoy our meal...
and show them that love prevails.
- Okay. - Eat up.
How about a noodle toast?
- Shall we? - Sure.
- Eat up. - Sure.
Thank you. I really enjoyed the meal.
I had a good time too.
It's Mr. Hong.
I'm glad we decided to be honest.
What's he doing with her?
I wish you luck with your girlfriend.
Good luck yourself.
Thank you.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
Bye.
Did those two just meet up for a date?
Hello, Ms. Oh.
Did something upsetting happen today?
No.
I can tell that's a lie.
Did a customer upset you?
I said no.
You're scaring me.
Fine, if you say so.
What shall we eat for dinner?
What dinner? I doubt you'll feel hungry.
What do you mean?
Tell me the truth, Mr. Hong.
Are you hiding something from me?
Am I...
Did you notice that already?
That I have uneven buttocks?
Not that.
If you fess up now, I'll forgive you this once.
I'm not hiding anything from you.
What is there for me to keep from you?
So you won't tell me?
What's wrong with you?
I'm really innocent. I did nothing wrong.
Fine, then. You can leave.
I don't want to talk to you.
Poor me.
What?
What got into her?
This isn't good.
The date for the next payment is coming up.
Hello?
Hi, Mr. Kim, it's me.
Hello, Father.
Did you talk to Soo In?
No, not yet.
Why not? Didn't I tell you to just push ahead?
She will have to give in then.
Are you free tomorrow?
I'll come to Seoul to see you.
I'm busy and won't be able to see you.
I know why you're acting like this,
but just...
I'm sorry. I have to go.
Hello? Mr. Kim. Mr...
Oh, dear.
Honey. Honey!
What did you tell Mr. Kim?
What do you mean?
What did you say to him...
that he'd hang up on me like that?
I didn't say anything.
I bet you did. Would he react like that for no reason?
I'm trying to dream big and make something of myself.
Can you support me?
Neither my wife nor daughter are of any help.
You're being stubborn about something that can't work.
How can I help?
Forget it. I'll meet Mr. Kim...
and talk to him directly.
No. Where do you think you're going?
I'll go and tell Mr. Kim everything.
You sit tight.
No, you can't do that.
I told you to sit tight!
What is it now, Dong Chul?
What's going on?
Get out of my way. I'm going to Seoul.
Stop it, Dong Chul.
You know there's no way.
Not you too. Why is there no way?
Calm down, Dong Chul!
- Move. - Will you stop this?
- Dae Bong. - No!
Let go of me.
What a mess.
Mr. Kim and Soo In...
How could this be?
I can't believe what I just heard.
That unbelievable situation has happened to us.
I did think there was a reason Ms. Lee couldn't tell us about.
She must be so upset.
Do you think I'm not?
Tell me honestly. If you were me,
wouldn't you try to marry Soo In off to Mr. Kim?
Goodness, no. That's wrong.
Why is it wrong?
Don't you get it? You can insist all you want,
but it can't happen.
You need to give up.
If that's all you can say, go home.
I'm not trying to upset you.
I do know how you feel.
But what you want is wrong.
Oh, dear.
Mr. Kim refused to see Dong Chul.
Do you think he gave up trying to marry Soo In?
When you met him today,
did you notice anything?
No.
Did you tell him anything?
I treated him even more harshly.
So he'd never come back.
Oh, no.
I bet you cried so much inside.
I think he's giving up...
because it's just too much.
They have no choice but to break up.
Seon Woo must feel so alone right now.
I'm worried for him.
However hurt he is, I can't be there to comfort him.
I can't hold him.
Young Sun.
I asked you...
not to come and see me.
Mother.
Don't even call me like that anymore.
I feel uncomfortable.
Come in.
These are from Madam Cho.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Wait, Tae Soo.
You said you lived with Soo In's family.
Yes.
Then you must know well about her mother.
I'd like you to tell me what she's like.
Soo In's mother, you mean?
Yes. Tell me all you know, whatever that may be.
I'd like to know about her.
As you know already, she's a good person.
I know that.
When I met her at the restaurant not knowing who she was,
I thought she was a nice person.
At the time, I had no idea we'd have this kind of relationship.
Soo In's father was in prison for 10 years.
She must have gone through a lot...
with Soo In and Jung In.
Yes, I heard they did,
along with Soo In's mother.
What? What do you mean?
Does Soo In have two mothers?
Ms. Lee's her stepmother.
Her birth mother passed away a while ago.
Seon Woo found out a little too late that...
he and Soo In are not blood relatives...
and it hurts him even more.
Would it have been better to think they were related?
Would it have made it easier to give up?
Seon Woo thinks his reality...
and the time he spent with Soo In...
are like a distant dream.
We walked hand-in-hand.
There's much more to do.
We must watch a movie...
and take Ji Hoon to an amusement park.
And we must all go to the seaside.
Let's take our time and do them one by one.
(Seoul Cafe)
I got here early and had some time to think.
From the day we first met until today,
I still remember it all so clearly and it's so strange.
It's as if it happened yesterday.
I took you for a pickpocket and you slapped me.
When we met at the factory the next day,
I thought it was all an incredible coincidence.
That coincidence started us off...
and we got this far.
Because of you,
I was very happy and grateful.
I was a selfish man with many shortcomings...
and I think you made me a better person.
Thank you, Soo In.
You gave me a lot too.
I'm grateful as well.
Are you?
I think I caused you too much pain.
I feel terrible for all the trouble.
I wanted to treat you better...
and create nicer memories.
I'm sorry I can't.
Mr. Kim.
I just wanted to say that to you.
I'm so sorry.
Thanks for everything.
I'm sorry.
If only Mr. Kim and I weren't connected in this way...
It's all my fault.
Mr. Kim really misses his mother.
I don't want you to visit me to discuss Soo In.
What do you mean?
What have you done?
Stop it, Dad!
It's over between us.
I will never give up.
Go and tell Mr. Kim that you give your permission.
- I can't do that. - Where's Young Sun?
Maybe she got sick of you and left home.
