(Episode 123)
- Tae Woong. - Mom.
Tae Woong.
Mom. My mom.
Thank you for coming, my son.
Let me see my son's face.
Thank you for growing up so well.
Mom, why were you like that back then?
Why were you so cold to me?
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry for how I treated you back then.
But it wasn't because I hated you.
I love you so much.
I know.
Thank you, Mr. Shin.
Thank you.
I'll send him back safely.
- I'll come back tomorrow, okay? - Okay.
It smells delicious.
I'll cook all your favorite dishes. Just wait a little bit, okay?
Okay.
It looks delicious, doesn't it?
Here you go.
Gosh, it looks so good.
Here, have a taste. Wait.
Here.
This tastes just like the braised short ribs I had at the hospital.
Were you the one who brought them?
- Yes. - No wonder.
I was reminded of you when I ate them.
Really?
Eat up.
Isn't it nice that the three of us are eating together like this?
Yes, it's nice.
My little brother.
Mom, why aren't you eating?
I'll eat.
It's really delicious.
Do you also call her "Mom"?
What?
I decided to call her that because she feels like my mom.
Can I do that?
Yes, that'd be great. That means you're my sister.
Thank you, my little brother.
Here.
I'm home.
Did you take Tae Woong to his mom?
Yes.
Is he going to spend the night there?
Yes.
My gosh, he must be so happy.
He'll get to sleep with his mom. He must be really excited.
What if he suddenly insists on living with his mom?
That can't happen.
He won't say that. I already talked to him about that.
What's so wrong about living with her?
What?
I mean, he can go back and forth and live here and there.
My gosh, I'm so hungry.
Honey, are you still cooking?
I'm... I'm hungry.
Father. Mother. You should eat.
Let's... Let's eat.
- Tae Woong. - Push me too.
I love strawberry vanilla ice cream the most.
- Me too. - Me too.
We all have the same taste.
- Eat up. - Okay.
- Mom. - Yes?
I'm so happy that I get to sleep with you.
Me too.
I'm the happiest person on earth.
- I love you. - Me too.
I'm sorry.
Why?
I put you through so much.
I'm so sorry for that.
Mom, are you crying?
No.
Don't cry. You have me.
You can rely on me from now on.
I'll protect you.
Okay.
Let's sleep.
I want to sleep with you guys.
Okay, come here.
My little puppies.
I'm so happy.
- Me too. - Me too.
Let's close our eyes and sleep now.
Tae Woong fell asleep so fast.
Yes, he did.
Mom.
I think today could possibly be the happiest day of my life.
Tae Woong's probably sound asleep right now.
You made the right choice.
Yes, I think I did.
Tae Woong looked so happy.
And that made me feel at ease.
Exactly. I don't think it's good for divorced couples...
to become enemies if they have a kid together.
It's best to help each other out and greet each other with a smile.
Yes, you're right.
My gosh, it was so hard to open up my heart.
But now that I have, it feels like nothing now.
Good job.
Here. Congratulations on having done your homework.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Bottoms up.
Why didn't you drink everything?
Here.
These are your clothes.
These are your favorite snacks.
And this is my handmade pie.
I packed your sneakers in here.
And since it's winter soon,
I also packed some gloves and thick socks.
Gosh, there are so many.
Here. This is a gift from me.
- I got you a game pack. - A game pack?
My gosh.
He needs to study.
You're making it obvious that you're his mom.
It's okay. He's just a kid.
Play as much as you wish.
Come on.
Did you have fun?
Yes.
Then why do you sound so down?
Because I need to leave.
We'll be seeing each other in two weeks.
You promised me that you'll stay bright and cheerful.
Okay.
- Bye, Tae Woong. - Bye, Jenny.
My son.
Stay healthy, okay? I'll see you soon.
Okay. You too, Mom.
Bye.
I got some stuff for Tae Woong.
Thank you.
Please thank your parents for me.
- Take care. - Bye.
Bye, Tae Woong.
Tae Woong, is that you?
Yes, I had so much fun with my mom and Jenny.
My mom cooked me so many delicious stuff.
She made me braise short ribs, sweet and sour pork,
sweet and sour chicken, and japchae.
I played games with my mom and Jenny,
and we even rode bikes at the park.
It looks like he'll stay up all night talking about it.
Okay, good job.
Jenny even got me a game pack as a gift.
I'm going to go play it right now.
He couldn't stop talking about it. He must've had a great time.
Yes, I guess so. He has a huge smile on his face.
He's been so down lately.
I'm going to go upstairs.
What if he starts saying he wants to live with his mom?
He can't live with her.
There's never a limit to a human being's greed.
No way. They should be thankful that they even get to see each other.
They better not ask for more.
I'm also scared that Hyun Joon might...
suddenly want to get back together with her.
That's why you should set him up with a nice lady...
and make them get married.
It's not easy. He didn't like any of the girls I set him up with.
Apparently, Tae Woong was really happy.
He became really vibrant.
He looked a lot brighter and started talking more.
He kept boasting to everyone how nice his mom was to him.
That's so great.
It all worked out the way it should.
- Right? - Yes.
I agree with you. Hearing that made me feel happy as well.
A mother and son.
It sounds like a movie title.
Mom.
I miss my mom as well.
My goodness.
We're all feeling great. I feel like you'll sell a lot today.
You're busy these days, aren't you? I'll help you out.
Gosh, that would be great.
The restaurant is packed these days.
- That's because you're blessed. - She's right.
You all live so kindly.
My goodness, I'm flattered.
I think it was a great idea to open up a restaurant.
Yes.
Should we open another chain store?
The head office takes care of everything for us.
All we need to do is apply.
Sure, go ahead. You're the boss, so it's up to you.
I envy you.
When will I ever get to open up a restaurant like you?
I wouldn't ask for anything else if I had my own restaurant.
Don't worry. You'll get to start your own restaurant soon.
You also lived kindly, so you'll also receive a lot of blessings.
Wait.
Before you receive those blessings,
take this first. It's your bonus.
What? My goodness.
You work so hard.
Even when we all cook the same dish, your food always tastes better.
Thank you so much.
I'll work even harder.
You're working hard enough.
Give me the spring onions. I'll chop them.
Give them to me.
(Leah Women's Hospital)
Thank you.
I heard you asked Hyun Joon to do me a favor.
I was able to meet Tae Woong thanks to you.
That's great. I'm so happy for you.
But it wasn't just me.
Everyone else wanted you and Tae Woong to meet as well.
That includes Sang Hyuk and Ji Young.
It all worked out the way it should.
By the way, here.
This is a token of my gratitude. Take it.
You didn't need to.
No, Kyung Shin. I should be buying from you.
No, the business is already doing well thanks to your investment.
It's the least I can do for my savior.
Okay, I'll wear it well.
It's so pretty. I like the color as well.
Your clothes are really amazing.
Thank you. I'll live a really diligent life.
Mom.
What's with the fuss? I want you to go on a blind date.
Her parents are both teachers.
And she has a very good character.
You should go on a date with her.
- I'm not going to date anyone. - What? Why?
I was in a hurry to get married so that Tae Woong could have a mom.
But there's no need to do that anymore.
Tae Woong's not the only important person.
Until when are you going to remain single?
I'm sure someone nice will show up during my life.
I'll meet someone naturally when the time comes.
I like being single right now.
I'm going to go to work now.
My gosh.
Do you think he's being like that because of Kyung Shin?
They're divorced. Why would he want anything to do with her?
I'm worried that they might start interacting with each other again...
because of Tae Woong.
You look a lot brighter after having spent time with your son.
I know, right? She's smiling from ear to ear.
Yes, I'm really energetic.
I don't even need food for energy.
My gosh, it must've been a tearful reunion.
People who don't have any kids would feel left out.
My goodness, what are you talking about?
We all live for our children.
We're sewing in order to raise our kids.
We should work hard so that we can send our kids to college.
You're right.
Let's think about our children and live diligently.
Thank you for letting Tae Woong see me, Mother.
That's the limit.
It was very hard for us to agree on letting him meet you.
Yes, I know.
Don't get any more greedy.
Using Tae Woong to get something...
isn't going to work on us anymore. The same goes for Hyun Joon.
There's nothing more I ask for.
I just want Tae Woong to grow up well,
and I want Hyun Joon to meet someone nice...
and start a new family.
I'm relieved to hear that.
I hope you sincerely mean it...
so that we won't have to clash with each other again.
Come in.
Hye Rim.
Honey.
Why do I feel so sick these days?
What's wrong?
I keep having indigestion.
And see? I keep retching.
- Do you think I have an illness? - What?
I did a self-diagnosis,
but there's nothing wrong with me.
- Come here. Let me check. - Okay.
I know what the problem is.
What... What is it?
It's not a fatal disease, is it?
It's Couvade syndrome.
Couvade syndrome?
Then are you saying...
I'm having morning sickness?
We're having a second baby. I'm eight weeks pregnant.
Really?
Really? My gosh, Hye Rim.
It took me 30 hours to have Soo Ji, and I barely managed to stay alive.
What am I going to do?
You seriously drive me crazy.
What can I do? I'm a sperm king.
My gosh.
You must be happy that you're a sperm king. My gosh.
Hye Rim.
1, 2, 3. Great.
One more time. 1, 2, 3.
Nice.
Great.
1, 2, 3.
Okay.
I'm home.
What's gotten into him?
He's really happy these days.
Did something happen at school?
No, I think it's because he got to meet his mom.
I heard him boasting about his mom to his friends today.
I see.
Goodness.
Hey, Mom. I finished school,
went to violin and taekwondo class, and now I'm home.
Really?
You're such a good boy.
Mom, what are you doing?
I'm working. I'm on my way to deliver some stuff.
Did you finish your homework?
- What? - I guess not.
No. The thing is...
Come on.
You're playing games instead of doing your homework, aren't you?
No.
I think you're lying.
I can see you from here.
You should have fun after you do your homework.
Okay.
How does she know so well?
(Elementary)
My goodness, what are you doing?
- I'm doing my homework. - Your homework?
You're doing your homework even when your nanny didn't ask you to.
I'm so proud of you.
Mom told me to play after I'm done with my homework.
I see.
Apparently, Tae Woong's become really bright and cheerful.
He boasts about his mom to his school friends,
and he even listens to his mom by doing his homework first.
Mother and Father also seem happy...
that Tae Woong's become vibrant again.
I knew it'd be great for him. That's good.
I feel a lot more relieved now.
- What did you have for dinner? - Crab stew.
It must've been delicious.
What should I cook for you the next time you come?
Pork cutlets.
Okay, I'll make you some crispy pork cutlets the next time you visit.
Can't I just live with you?
My son.
Then you won't even be able to come visit me anymore.
Okay, fine. I'll stop.
Good.
You can't throw tantrums at your grandparents either, okay?
- Okay. - I love you.
What's this?
The delivery man left it in front of our door.
It's a vacuum cleaner.
I ordered one because you seemed to have a hard time mopping the floor.
Ji Young and Bong Kyu use this as well.
It looks nice.
Yes, we'll need something like this if we're going to move...
to a bigger house.
What? A bigger house? What are you talking about?
We should move to a bigger house once you earn a lot of money.
What?
- Like this? - Yes.
Is this how you do it?
Kyung Shin, look at this. This is incredible.
Jenny, the famous celebrity, wore our clothes.
- Look. - What? Jenny?
Here.
My goodness, that's incredible.
- Let me see the next one. - The next one?
She looks so pretty.
What are you guys looking at?
Jenny uploaded her photoshoot on her social media page.
What photoshoot? Is it for our brand?
No, she uploaded a daily photo of her wearing an outfit...
from a brand named Tony and Jenny.
Tony and Jenny?
Bong Kyu took these photos for her.
Her mom apparently didn't want Jenny to model for her brand.
But Jenny secretly took these photos and uploaded them online.
Really? How are people's reactions?
They're incredible. They all think the clothes are pretty.
Show him the next one.
Jenny, what happened?
Why did you take those photos?
Why do you think I'm asking?
What if people start asking you about me after they see the photos?
What if the reporters dig into the past...
and start writing articles that might harm your image?
Articles that might harm my image?
That won't ever happen.
Don't worry, Mom. I won't do any interviews.
I won't do anything else other than promote Tony and Jenny.
Okay.
Are you really not worried?
What's there to worry about?
I'm only trying to help my mom.
Let's finish your hair.
Yes, okay. Thank you.
Yes, this is Tony and Jenny.
Yes. Hello, sir.
We're getting orders right now.
Yes, I think you'll need to make some more.
Okay, bye.
Yes, that's right. You can try them on and buy the ones you like.
If you don't like anything, you can always return them.
Yes, of course.
Yes, can you tell me your size again?
Okay, then. I'll bring you the outfit in different colors.
You can try each one on...
- and see which one suits you best. - This is Tony and Jenny.
Yes.
Kyung Shin's clothing brand is doing really great these days.
What kind of brand is it? She's doing a business?
Yes. She gathered subcontractors...
that receive orders from rookie designers...
and made a brand named Tony and Jenny.
What? Tony and Jenny?
That's Tae Woong and Jenny.
My gosh.
Her brand's gone viral...
because the clothes are pretty and they have a unique way of selling.
Jenny even modeled for the brand in order to help her mom,
so it's doing a lot better.
It's not an official advertisement.
Jenny just uploads photos of her daily life...
wearing Kyung Shin's clothes.
And that must've felt very new to the consumers.
When people leave comments,
she even replies to them regarding the outfit she's wearing.
By doing that,
she's communicating with the consumers and giving them faith.
Is she still pressuring the subcontractors financially...
like she used to?
I don't think so.
That's her specialty.
Old habits die hard.
My gosh.
I get to meet my mom today.
Have fun.
Bye.
- Bye. - Bye.
He looks so happy.
Mom.
Let's go.
- Hello. - Hey.
Welcome.
I noticed that you modeled for your mom's brand.
Yes.
People seem to love it.
Yes, our sales increased a lot thanks to her.
That's good to hear. How many subcontractors do you work with?
I work with 10 small-sized subcontractors.
That's a lot. I'm impressed.
They're working with her because she lets them take a large profit.
Really?
How do you divide the money?
- 7 to 3. - 7 to 3?
They get 7 and you get 3?
Will that be enough?
That's more than enough. I just need to earn a living.
That's really not like you.
I'm just happy that I'm able to work.
I'm working with the people I met back when I was doing my time.
And we should be grateful that we're given a chance...
to contribute to society even after everything we've done.
We're having fun at work, and no one's being greedy.
So my life's a lot more comfortable and happy now.
Everything you said to me turned out to be true.
A good business is one that shares the profit...
and tries to coexist with other businesses.
Thank you. I'll be off now.
Let's go. I cooked you a really delicious meal.
I even made pork cutlets.
That sounds so delicious.
Okay, then. Enjoy your meal and have fun.
I'll go now.
Dad, you should join us.
No, it's okay.
Dad, come on.
He's right. You should eat with us.
- Come on. - Please, Dad?
Tae Woong.
Come on, Mr. Shin.
(I am also Mother)
Ji Young, you protected both Jenny and Tae Woong.
Thank you so much.
Are you going to get back together with her?
We're all mothers now.
I think becoming a mother is about getting rid of yourself.
You naturally disappear,
but it doesn't feel upsetting at all.
I'll be straightforward with you.
We'd like to offer you a spot in our department store.
