You, I, and Ji Hoon, us three.
Let's live together from now on.
I should've done this a long ago. I'm sorry I took so long.
I'll make up for all the hardships you've been through as we live.
Don't worry.
From now on, I'll look after you and Ji Hoon.
What?
Why should you look after us?
Because Ji Hoon is my son. I'm his father.
What do you mean? You aren't.
Ji Hoon isn't your son.
Don't be like this.
I looked into it already.
I checked the records of the hospital you gave birth to him.
No. Ji Hoon is my son.
It was over between us...
when you left me.
The day you chose Se Young over me...
was the day you abandoned us both.
I didn't know you were pregnant.
If I did, it would've been different.
No. I actually went to see you and tell you.
But that day...
you refused to listen to me.
It's all in the past.
There's no reason for you to take us in now.
You have nothing to do with us now.
Ji Hoon did just fine without a father so far,
and we can go on just as we were.
We'll do just fine.
Soo In.
I know why you chose Se Young over me.
Go back to her and marry her...
and live the life you dreamed of.
Stop bothering me and Ji Hoon. We are good as we are.
(Shinchon Boutique)
Soo In.
This doesn't change the fact that Ji Hoon's my son.
Please stop it.
The more you do this the harder it is on us.
Whatever you say, I will not give up on him.
What do you mean?
Are you saying you'll take Ji Hoon from me?
That's not what I'm saying.
Please, Jeong Wook.
If you really care for Ji Hoon and me, leave us alone.
Get on with your own life.
Soo In.
Dad.
- Hello, sir. - Mr. Choi.
What are you doing here?
I'm here on business.
Are you?
I should get going.
Okay, then. Goodbye.
What was he here for?
To buy clothes?
Why are you here? You didn't say you'd visit.
I came over to see you.
You didn't have lunch, did you?
Let me treat you to lunch.
Do you have something to say to me?
Yes, I do. It's about...
registering Ji Hoon's birth.
What do you think of registering him as Dal Ja's son?
Who, Ji Hoon?
Yes. We can register him as her son...
and ask her and Dae Bong to raise him for you.
Where did you get that idea from?
You know your aunt can't have children...
and you can't stay single forever.
Isn't it best for everyone...
if Dal Ja can adopt Ji Hoon?
No. I will raise him.
Don't be so negative and think about it.
You never know what'll happen.
You might get remarried one day...
and Ji Hoon won't be with complete strangers.
Dal Ja's my sister, your aunt.
I can't live without Ji Hoon. Don't say that!
What will you do about it, then?
He has to start school soon.
He can't if he isn't registered. You're ruining his future.
I'm not telling you to make up your mind now.
You'll need time to think as well.
Think long and hard what would be...
the best for Ji Hoon's future.
I know why you chose Se Young over me.
Go back to her and marry her...
and live the life you dreamed of.
Stop bothering me and Ji Hoon.
I noticed this morning that one of the doors is stiff.
We should wax the hinges with a candle...
before we leave.
That door has been squeaking for a while.
It needs fixing.
We can ask Dong Chul to fix it for us.
Can we?
Shall I call and ask him to come over now?
He won't be in.
He went to Seoul to see Soo In and won't be back yet.
He went to Seoul? What for?
To talk to Soo In about registering Ji Hoon's birth.
I see.
Gosh, it's so hot outside.
- You came back. - Hi.
- Can I have some cold water? - Sure.
My goodness.
Did you talk to Soo In?
Yes, I told her my idea.
I guess it's too sudden.
She couldn't answer so I told her to think about it.
I guess it would be a tough issue for her.
I actually saw Mr. Choi in Seoul today.
- Mr. Choi? - Yes.
I went to Soo In's workplace...
and they were talking about something serious outside.
Just the two of them?
What issues do they have to discuss seriously?
I have no idea.
Why else would Mr. Choi be at a clothing store?
I'm sure he went to buy Se Young some clothes.
Was that it?
How are the wedding preparations going?
So so, I guess.
You said you'd give Jeong Wook some money yesterday.
Did you?
Yes, I did. Why?
Never mind.
You still don't like him enough, do you?
Stop being like that.
He's about to become a member of our family for real.
You should accept him now as a part of the family.
How about Man Pyo and that woman?
Did they break up?
I don't know.
What do you mean? You said you'd deal with them.
I'd been a bit distracted with Se Young and the wedding.
Are you saying that Man Pyo's still seeing her?
I think so.
You couldn't just break them up?
Why did you want to see me outside?
Se Young.
What is it? Is something wrong?
I don't think we can get married.
What did you just say?
I'm sorry, Se Young.
Let's break up.
Why are you doing this all of a sudden?
I don't love you.
Jeong Wook.
I know how good you were to me...
and my family.
You loved me a lot too.
I'm very grateful...
and that makes me feel terrible.
Stop. Stop it.
I heard that everyone gets cold feet before the wedding, so...
Se Young.
You know very well that I'm serious.
No. I don't believe that you don't love me.
There's another reason, isn't there?
Marrying you when I don't love you...
would be just wrong.
It will make us all very unhappy.
That's the reason.
No way.
I can't break up with you.
There will be a wedding...
and you will soon regret you ever said this.
You know the more you say that, the more it'll torture you.
Will you please stop this?
I really can't live without you.
I'll pretend we never had this talk.
Why does he suddenly want to break up?
Did he find out all about Soo In and her son?
Is that why?
Jeong Wook. Jeong...
Where is he?
Mr. Choi went to Seoul.
To Seoul? What for?
He said he had something to do.
Why are you here again?
I told you not to come here. Why won't you listen?
I don't want to bother you...
or push you.
Will you stop it?
Please, just leave me alone.
I don't want an answer right now.
You need time to think.
Today, I'm here for Ji Hoon.
To tell you I'll take him to the zoo.
What zoo?
When we ate together,
he said he wanted to go to the zoo and I said I'd take him.
If I take him without telling you, you'll get scared again.
I want your permission.
No. You're not taking Ji Hoon anywhere.
- You can't go. - Soo In.
Will you please leave me and Ji Hoon alone?
Stop coming here. Just don't show up.
Ji Hoon.
Hello, Mr. Choi.
I brought some pastries for you to share with your friend.
It's okay. You can take what I give you.
Share it with your friend.
Thank you.
You're so well-mannered.
What's your friend's name?
Min Soo. He's my best friend.
Is he?
Try to get along with him and don't fight.
Okay.
Why did you want to see me?
Did you see Jeong Wook?
What did you say to him?
What do you mean?
He wants to break up with me. He won't marry me.
It's all your fault.
Why is it my fault?
You promised me.
You said you will stay out of our lives forever.
Don't worry. I'll keep that promise.
Ji Hoon and I won't get in your way.
What you're afraid of won't happen.
Don't worry.
How did Jeong Wook find out?
How did he know the kid is his?
I don't know.
I think he looked into it himself.
Soo In, I can't live without him.
I really can't survive without him.
I beg you.
Take your son and leave...
to where no one knows you.
Where Jeong Wook can't find you.
Please, Soo In.
Se Young, what's wrong?
Did something bad happen?
No.
Don't lie to me.
Tell me what's going on. Don't conceal anything from me.
I said it's nothing.
Can you marry Jeong Wook and live as if nothing happened?
What do you mean?
He has a child with another woman.
Can you live with that?
The boy has nothing to do with Jeong Wook.
The kid is Soo In's.
Jeong Wook will have nothing to do with him until he dies.
What if he finds out?
What if he hears Soo In had his child...
and he wants to go back to them?
- What then? - That won't happen.
Se Young, will you please listen to me?
You're too much in love with Jeong Wook.
If you marry him like this, you'll be really unhappy.
Don't say that, Mom.
You're just making things even harder for me.
Se Young.
Please, Mom.
If you want me to be happy,
don't get in my way.
If I don't marry Jeong Wook,
I won't survive.
I can't live without him.
Se Young...
Why did you want to see me?
Why did Soo In and Mr. Kim break up?
Why do you care?
I need to know if it's over between them.
Do they still have feelings for each other?
Why do you care?
It's none of your business.
I know Soo In has a son.
I also know he's mine.
I want to go back to her.
But she won't accept me.
Now do you want her back?
Jeong Wook, have you really forgotten...
what you did to her?
I know what terrible things I did to her.
But I didn't know about Ji Hoon back then and I do now.
I'll leave Se Young, Taesan,
and everything I have to get her back.
Can you do that?
I know how greedy you are.
You chose your ambition over Soo In.
Tae Soo.
I don't know what you're thinking,
but this won't change what you did.
Tae Soo, I'm begging you.
I'll make it up to her. I'll pay the price for what I did.
Whatever you say, if Soo In refuses,
I won't help you.
If you really care for her, you must help me.
I'm the only one that can make her happy.
I'm Ji Hoon's father.
Whatever people say, I'm the one they need the most.
I'll take full responsibility.
Come in.
- Did you want to see me? - Yes.
Mr. Jung's daughter's getting married.
I thought we should discuss what to give them.
A present?
Mr. Jung's done a lot for us over the years.
We should give him something nice.
You're right. Let me think about it.
Okay.
Grandma.
Do you remember suggesting that...
I go on a date with Ms. Jung?
Yes, I do.
Were you the one who suggested that?
No, it wasn't me.
Mr. Jung liked the idea of having you as a son-in-law.
So he asked me how I thought about...
letting you two meet up.
Why are you asking me that?
It's nothing.
I finished up outside.
- Did you? - Yes.
Why did you get into a fight with...
Mr. Song who sells dried fish?
Oh, that?
He talked nonsense so I gave him a piece of my mind.
What nonsense? What did he say?
The people...
seem to be gossiping about...
Soo In and her son.
Are they?
Don't let that bother you.
People love to talk about others,
but they get over it just as quickly.
That's true.
Even if I did care, what can I do about what's already happened?
I just have to pretend I am not listening.
Sorry you got into trouble because of my daughter.
Your daughter's practically mine too.
If anyone gossips about Soo In again,
that person will get a good talking-to.
Thanks a lot.
- Sook Hee. - What?
You know what it's about.
What else would I talk to you about?
I have a headache so get to the point.
I'll get married after Se Young.
Seol Hee and I aren't young. We can't wait for long.
Are you really going to marry her?
Of course. I told you so.
We don't want to break up with each other.
- Man Pyo! - Sook Hee.
What's this about?
Why are you so unsatisfied with Seol Hee?
Do you really not know?
All jobs are equal.
She isn't some lowlife.
You won't find someone who works as hard as she does.
How many times must I tell you?
Forget it. I've had enough of you.
Get married. Do what you want.
Can I?
Do you mean that?
You gave permission, didn't you?
Can Seol Hee and I set a date?
My permission means nothing.
It's my husband's you need.
I don't care what happens.
Get his permission yourself.
Don't you worry. I'll talk to him.
Thanks.
My head's about to split now.
Oh my goodness...
Come in.
Do you have a few minutes?
I'd like to talk.
About what?
Are Se Young's wedding preparations going well?
They're coming along.
Can I do anything to help?
My wife and Se Young are in charge.
I don't think so.
Is that what you wanted to say?
Actually... Jae Man.
After Se Young's married,
Seol Hee and I'd like to get married too.
That's what I wanted to say.
I said you can't marry her.
Why are you being so stubborn?
You can say what you want,
but Seol Hee and I won't break up.
- Man Pyo. - Jae Man.
Just this once, I would like you to...
let me have my way. Please.
I said what I came here to say.
I'll see myself out.
Oh dear.
Ms. Oh, I'm back.
Hello.
What is it? Is something wrong?
What's going on?
My landlord came by.
He wants me to leave when the contract's expired.
I can't believe he suddenly said it just like that.
Why would your landlord say that?
I don't know. I asked and he won't tell.
I offered to pay more rent and he refused.
If the landlord wants me gone,
there's nothing I can do.
What's wrong with him?
He may have the power to do so,
but it's not right to kick you out like that.
If I leave like this,
I won't get any of my deposit back.
I don't know what to do.
Do you want me to talk to the landlord?
It won't help.
I tried begging and he still wants me gone.
I went through so much to buy this cafe.
How could this happen to me?
Mr. Hong.
How much have you had?
Are you worried about Ms. Oh?
Dal Ja told me what happened.
I feel so sorry for Seol Hee.
I know.
She ran that cafe for years.
Why is the landlord so mean?
How could he do this to someone he's known for years?
I'm angry with myself...
than the landlord.
What about you?
If I had some money,
I wouldn't have to care about the landlord.
I could just set up a new cafe for Seol Hee to run.
There's nothing I can do for her.
I hate myself for being so incompetent.
It's all my fault.
Don't say that. Why is it your fault?
It is.
If I hadn't wasted my money on investments,
Seol Hee wouldn't have to go through this.
I should've grown up sooner...
and saved up more money.
I can't go back and start over.
I'm such a loser.
I'm pathetic.
- Did you have a drink? - Yes.
I joined Mr. Hong because he was upset about what happened to Ms. Oh.
I see. Ms. Oh cried a lot today.
The rich people are worse.
How could her landlord...
kick her out like that?
I don't know.
Did your brother get to talk to Soo In?
Yes, but I don't think she likes the idea.
She said she'd think about it.
Why wouldn't she?
We may be related,
but it's her son. She can't just say yes...
right away to giving up her son.
I guess.
And you know what? When Dong Chul was in Seoul,
he saw Mr. Choi.
Mr. Choi?
He's often in Seoul for business.
That's not surprising.
He saw Mr. Choi with Soo In.
You asked me if Soo In had dated someone...
before she left Incheon.
It can't be Mr. Choi, can it?
Goodness, no. That can't be right.
When Soo In left,
Mr. Choi was already engaged to Se Young.
He was, wasn't he?
Those two even set a date to get married.
Let's not bring them into this.
Why do you think Mr. Choi was there to see Soo In?
Young Sun suggested he was there to buy Se Young's clothes,
but I don't think that's right.
I don't know.
Maybe he dropped by to say hello.
They used to work together.
Is that it?
What? Do you have something to say?
Yes.
I'm giving you this watch as your wedding gift.
My mom and I picked it out today.
Se Young.
You can exchange it if you want.
Incheon Hotel called us back.
There's an opening a week before the date we'd set.
I'd like to get married a week earlier. What do you think?
Will you stop it, Se Young?
I told you yesterday that it's off.
And I told you that we will get married.
I gave you time thinking that you'd need it to accept the news.
I was wrong.
Jeong Wook.
If you won't give in, I have no choice.
I'll go downstairs and tell your parents right now.
Tell them what?
That we'll call this wedding off.
How can you do this to me?
No. You can't do that.
Are you sick?
You don't look well.
What? Do I look unwell?
Yes.
Are you tired of the wedding preparations...
because it's in a rush?
No, I'm fine.
I know there's a lot to do.
I hope you can manage.
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
My marriage with Se Young...
Jeong Wook, Jeong Wook, wait.
What's wrong, Se Young?
I'm really sorry.
- Our marriage... - Jeong Wook, no.
Don't do it. You can't...
- Se Young! - Se Young!
- Se Young. Se Young. - Se Young!
Se Young. Se Young.
Has she been under a lot of stress lately?
What? Oh... Yes.
Is that the reason?
Yes. She's very weak...
and her weakened immune system caused her to go into shock.
An IV drip...
and a few days' rest should do the trick.
Don't worry too much.
Okay.
I guess she was overdoing herself because of the wedding preparations.
It's a big event.
There's a lot to consider.
I need you to take good care of her.
She'll be your wife soon.
What is it you were going to say?
What? Oh, it's nothing.
What was Se Young saying no about?
I'm not sure.
Se Young, are you feeling better?
Yes, I am.
I'm sorry.
I put you through too much.
Jeong Wook.
Can you do me a favor?
Please don't tell...
my parents anything.
Se Young, I don't love you anymore.
This won't change anything.
Still, don't tell them.
Even if our wedding ends up falling through,
let me be the one to tell them why.
Can you do that for me?
Soo In. I beg you.
Take your son and leave...
to where no one knows you.
Where Jeong Wook can't find you.
Please, Soo In.
You, I, and Ji Hoon, us three.
Let's live together.
I'll make up for all the hardships you've been through as we live.
Don't worry.
From now on, I'll look after you and Ji Hoon.
What?
Why should you look after us?
Because Ji Hoon is my son.
I'm his father.
I'm sorry, Se Young.
Let's break up.
Why are you doing this all of a sudden?
I don't love you.
Stop. Stop it.
You know very well that I'm serious.
No. I don't believe that you don't love me.
There's another reason, isn't there?
You're so well-mannered.
What's your friend's name?
Min Soo. He's my best friend.
Are you Ji Hoon?
Yes. Who are you?
Why did you break up with the woman...
you were going to marry?
Do you still have feelings for her?
I loved her for a long time.
It won't go away just like that.
I told you not to come here.
- Come back to me. - I told you.
I don't want to.
Because of Mr. Kim?
Will you stop it?
Whatever you say, I'm Ji Hoon's dad.
I'm asking you one last time.
Do you want to leave me?
Yes. I can't stand looking at you.
You three will never get to live together.
