(Episode 35)
Ji Young.
You came early. Did you wait for a long time?
- No. - What would you like to eat?
An Americano? A latte?
Or a sweet cup of grapefruit tea with honey?
- I'll just drink coffee. - Okay.
Excuse me.
- Thank you. - Enjoy.
Is everyone doing well?
Your uncle's a really fun guy.
I drank so much that I couldn't play golf properly the next day.
Let's go have Italian for dinner.
I made a reservation at a really nice restaurant.
- Mr. Shin. - Yes?
I feel a little uncomfortable about becoming too close to you.
It's not because of you. It's because of myself.
What do you mean?
I...
have an embarrassing past.
Something I can't dare to tell anyone.
I don't want to confess what it is and talk about it with you,
and I don't want to hide it from you and start seeing you either.
I don't know what happened, but I can embrace all that.
I'll eventually be able to understand.
Being loved by someone and becoming happy is a good thing.
But I'm too ashamed of myself.
I'm so embarrassed of who I am...
that I can't seem to accept anyone into my heart.
Please let me just live my life.
I'm sorry.
Ji Young.
Wounds are healed by time.
I've also been through a lot,
but time healed everything.
Let's take this slowly. I'll stay by your side.
My gosh, what should I cook for breakfast tomorrow?
Let's just cook some seaweed soup
Why aren't you sleeping?
I can't seem to sleep.
Really?
Do you want some alcohol? It works like magic.
I'll just have some tea.
Are things going well with Mr. Shin?
I could see that he was totally into you that night.
I mean, he came all the way here.
And I'm sure he didn't come because of your uncle.
He obviously came because he wants to start dating you.
Should we invite him over for dinner...
this weekend?
What do you think about having a pork belly party?
Aunt Ki Sook, I'm not going to meet him anymore.
What? Why?
I told him that he makes me feel uncomfortable.
How come?
I don't want to date anyone.
So please stop talking to me about him.
Why are you so hard on yourself? It's not like you committed a crime.
But I'm in no place to confidently date someone either.
Why can't you be confident?
You didn't do it for money. You did it to save your family.
Why do you keep making yourself feel so small?
I feel comfortable staying single.
Mr. Shin deserves someone way better than me.
Gosh, I'm so frustrated.
She just blew her luck.
What's wrong?
Ji Young rejected Mr. Shin...
because of her past.
What? I thought he already knew about her divorce.
No, not that. I'm talking about the surrogacy.
He won't know as long as no one tells him.
And so what if he finds out?
It's not like she got pregnant after having an affair with someone.
That's exactly my point.
He's really a good catch.
He's really competent and has a good personality.
He seemed like a really good guy.
Don't worry. He won't back off that easily.
Really? How do you know that?
A real man wouldn't give up that easily.
He needs to push through and be persistent.
Look at me. Your brother was so protective of you.
But I pushed through and got my woman.
My gosh, you didn't push through and get your woman.
You kept crying and wailing that you'll die without me.
And you didn't even eat.
I only started dating you because I felt sorry for you.
My goodness.
When did I do that?
Gosh.
Let's take this slowly. I'll stay by your side.
No, you'll become more disappointed once you get to know me better.
But I don't regret having done what I did.
Because that gave birth to Joon Su.
Hey, Bestie.
He looks adorable.
Joon Su! Joon Su!
Please give Joon Su back to me! He's my son!
Ms. Choi, please give him back!
I noticed that your aunt runs a cosmetics store.
Do you want her store to close down?
And I heard your cousin's in the army right now.
I heard a lot of accidents occur in the army these days.
Grab onto the handle.
Now, let's go backwards.
Now, let's bring you forward.
Father, you have a call from Chairman Jung.
Oh, really?
Hey, Chairman Jung.
I'm at home.
What? The baseball stadium?
With my grandson?
My gosh.
Tae Woong loves baseball.
Really? Yang Hyun Jung's going to be there?
Gosh, my grandson would love it.
When's the date?
This Friday?
Okay, sure. I'll bring him there.
Grandpa, are we going to a baseball stadium?
Yes, we're even going to eat a meal with your favorite pitcher,
Yang Hyun Jung.
What time do you need to go?
I should take him there as soon as he's done with kindergarten.
He needs to get there early so that he can get autographs...
and take pictures with the players.
He has a violin lesson that day.
Just ask the teacher to come teach him at home next time.
- Okay, I'll do that. - Great.
I'll go to the kindergarten to pick you up on Friday.
Okay, I'm going to get autographs on my baseball.
Okay.
Now, let's go backwards.
Really? The daughter of that department store?
When? Tomorrow?
I'm not sure. I don't know if he'll have time.
Gosh, okay. I guess I should just set a schedule first.
Okay. I'll call my son and tell you.
Thank you, Ms. Jang.
Hey, Mom.
Sang Hyuk, are you busy tomorrow evening?
No. Why?
That's great.
I want you to meet the daughter of that department store owner.
She said she's free tomorrow, so I set a schedule.
Why do you keep doing this? I said, I don't want to.
Gosh, please do as I say.
She has a great personality, and she's pretty.
She's too good to let go.
I'm sure you'll end up liking her.
I don't want to go on a blind date.
Why not? Are you seeing someone?
That doesn't matter. I'll take care of my own love life.
Why do you try to keep interfering with my marriage?
You know I don't like it when you do that.
Okay, sure. I guess that's why your first marriage was such a success.
Anyway, I already set a schedule.
If you don't show up, you'll be humiliating me.
You better know that.
Not enough retail stores are advertising their stores.
How about we change the system and make retail stores...
with high sales pay an extra amount of money for advertisement?
What do you all think?
What are you talking about?
The retail stores are having trouble increasing their sales.
We should be giving them money instead.
If we increase the advertisement fee,
it'll do nothing but pressure the owners of the retail stores.
Instead, we can use a famous model to increase the sales.
Then it'll benefit the retail stores.
We're already using a famous model.
People will badmouth us saying we only care about ourselves.
No, no. Director Choi is right.
Let's do as she says.
Have you gone mad?
How could you think of doing that?
You're the one I don't understand.
We need to make profit. We're not social workers.
You need to look further beyond what's in front of you.
If you keep focusing on the company's benefits and nothing else,
the retail store owners will slowly start abandoning us.
And that will bring a decrease in our sales.
You're too idealistic.
Reality isn't like that.
The purpose of an enterprise is to make money.
How many times must I tell you this?
Director Choi is impressive.
She just started working, but she already knows a lot.
I told you, didn't I?
She's very smart.
She thinks just like me.
You're right. I think she'll be able to help you with the business.
And it seems like our ladies' wear will do better from now on.
Of course.

Tony! Tony!
Is Tony not here?
No, I'll go look for him.
Call me as soon as you find him.
Okay. Tony! Tony!
You have a date at 6pm at Wellington Hotel's cafe.
Don't forget to go.
Come in.
Mr. Shin, the new product's here.
Oh, really? Let's see.
Tony! Tony!
Tony, no.
Where did you go?
Tony.
I'm so relieved.
Do you know how worried I was?
What were you doing here?
There's a mantis here.
You're right.
It keeps eating insects.
It even ate a grasshopper a while ago.
Really?
Gosh, you're so full of curiosity.
The mantis is the strongest insect, right?
Yes.
Hey, I found Tony.
I'll take him back. You can go first.
Bye.
Should we go now? Your friends are waiting.
I want to stay for a bit more. I've never seen a mantis before.
Let's go now. We'll be late.
It's too hot, and I'm tired.
Here. Get on my back. I'll give you a piggyback.
Are you that happy?
Yes, you're my favorite person.
I like you a lot as well.
Let's go.
- Ms. Yoon. - Hey.
My gosh, look at him sleep after startling all of us.
He was looking at a mantis.
My gosh, he's so peculiar.
Where are the kids?
They're with the other class.
They all brought lunch boxes. Let's go eat.
My gosh, he must think you're his mom.
Yes, he's my son.
I agree. You sometimes really feel like Tony's mom.
I know, right? He really doesn't feel like someone else's kid to me.
Let's go.
What?
Are you saying they had lost Tae Woong?
No, they didn't exactly lose him.
He got left behind because he was looking at a mantis.
But Ms. Wendy quickly brought him back.
That still means they forgot to take him with them.
What's their problem?
How could they forget to bring him along?
He's such a precious child.
I should say something.
My gosh.
I think I should go talk to the director.
Forget it.
They all probably went home.
Just let them be for today since they found him.
Tomorrow, your father-in-law will be going to the kindergarten.
So I'll tell him to say something to the teachers when he gets there.
It'll be more effective for him to say something than you.
They'll get scared and won't lose their sense of responsibility.
My goodness. It's almost time for Sang Hyuk's blind date.
I hope it goes well.
You're home. How was the interview?
The look on your face tells me that you messed it up.
Whatever.
You used to look down on me for always failing my interviews.
What? What?
I'm sure you'll get a job. Don't be too distressed.
Everyone's having a hard time getting a job these days.
Ji Young, does Sang Hyuk...
No. Does Mr. Shin hire any interns?
Should I ask him if I can work there?
I can't believe you're already trying to use connections.
What's wrong with that? He might become my brother-in-law.
Se Young, I'm sorry.
But he and I aren't dating. Please don't get the wrong idea.
(I'm working out right now. I'm so full of energy.)
I'm working out right now. I'm so full of energy.
I hope you eat something nice and stay healthy.
What are you doing? Why didn't you show up?
I never told you that I'll go.
What? I begged you to go.
How embarrassing is this for me?
She comes from a really prestigious family, you know.
I'm sorry, but stop trying to set me up with someone.
I'll choose whom I'd like to marry myself.
I knew he'd be like that.
That jerk never listens to anyone.
Be honest with me.
Are you seeing someone right now? Is that what it is?
Yes, yes. I'm dating someone.
She's really pretty and nice.
So please take your focus off me, okay?
I'll hang up now.
Hey! Hey! Sang Hyuk!
He's seeing someone?
I don't know. He just kept saying "Yes, yes" and hung up.
I don't know if he's really seeing someone or just saying that.
Why does he always give us such a hard time?
My gosh, he's always doing the opposite of what we tell him to do.
Just let him be.
Let's see how long he'll keep this up.
About Sang Hyuk...
Do you think he's really seeing someone?
- I'm not sure. - Really?
You guys are close. Haven't you ever talked about that with him?
Why would I ask him that?
Do you think maybe he's still seeing Min Kyung?
It's been four years. I'm sure they're over.
I don't know. But I don't think he's meeting Min Kyung.
Then does he have a girlfriend?
I'm not sure. I don't meet Sang Hyuk that often these days.
Can you look into it for me?
Sure.
Okay, I'll meet up with him and ask. Bye.
My gosh.
There we go.
Goodness, Tae Woong. You must be happy...
to go to the baseball stadium with your grandpa.
Grandpa, are you going to come to my kindergarten later?
Of course. I'll go pick you up when you're done.
Okay.
I'll join you at the stadium right after work.
We're sitting at the skybox, right?
Yes, that's right. The owner of the baseball club...
and CEO are going to come say hello, so you should come as well.
It's next to the broadcasting booth.
Okay.
This is Tae Woong's uniform.
Let him get changed into this before he goes.
Okay, Ms. Choi.
- Let's go now. - Goodbye.
- Okay, bye. - Okay, bye.
- See you. - Bye.
- Have fun. - Okay.
Kyung Shin.
It's been so long.
What's gotten into you? I'm surprised you called.
Have you been doing well?
I'm doing good. What about you?
I see you on TV sometimes. Is your career going well?
Thankfully, I keep getting roles, although I didn't become a top star.
How's Mother and Father doing?
Do you have something to ask me?
Sang Hyuk's been coming home often.
He reconciled with both Mother and Father.
Why did you two get divorced?
Well, our personality difference played a part.
Why do you ask?
He keeps refusing to go on blind dates.
So I thought maybe you guys weren't completely done yet.
And so what if that's the case?
Why is that any of your concern?
I'm just trying to help you out if I can.
You want to help me?
They say, "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't."
We've been through a lot of ups and downs together.
I don't want to have to get used to a different sister-in-law.
I guess you could say we're not done...
since I have something I need to receive from him.
What do you mean?
My alimony. I didn't get a single penny.
He said he'll give me alimony once he earns money.
But I'm saving it instead of asking him for it right now.
Why?
I don't know. It's kind of like a connection.
I feel like it'll really be the end once I take that alimony.
I'm going to get Yang Hyun Jung's signature on my baseball today.
Really? I'm so envious.
My grandpa's coming today. He's going to take me with him.
- Gosh, I envy you. - That must be so fun.
Then I guess I'll get to see your grandfather today.
I've always wondered what kind of person he is.
He's the best grandpa in the entire world.
Really?
Come in.
Hey, Sang Hyuk. Are you seeing anyone for lunch?
I just missed you. That's all.
Okay. Should we meet...
at the pasta restaurant near your office?
Okay. Bye.
Why are you meeting him?
I'm going to eat lunch with him.
Why do you miss him?
Are you dating him?
What are you talking about?
Both you and him are nothing but human beings to me.
What are you doing here?
Were you going to ask me to eat lunch with you?
No, no.
I came to borrow this.
I heard you didn't show up at the blind date.
My mom is seriously killing me.
Kyung Shin asked me if you're seeing someone.
I'm not seeing anyone. Plus, I got rejected anyway.
What? You liked someone?
Yes.
But I must not be that charming. She dumped me loud and clear.
My gosh, I didn't know that happened.
Eat up.
What about you? Are you seeing anyone?
I'm not seeing anyone, but I might get involved with someone.
What's that supposed to mean?
I'm going to have a baby.
- What baby? - My baby.
I'm going to use a sperm bank.
Are you serious?
Yes.
Shouldn't a kid grow up with a dad?
What are you going to do about your kid's pain and confusion...
for not having a dad?
Just because there's a dad doesn't mean it's a normal family.
There are many different types of families in this world.
Divorced families, single parent families,
and families where grandparents raise their grandchildren.
There are also unhappy families due to family abuse or conflicts.
Isn't it a bit narrow-minded to judge a family by its form?
But still, kids learn about masculinity from their fathers.
That especially goes for sons.
You think they learn masculinity from dads and femininity from moms?
Don't you think that's a dichotomous opinion?
What's your definition of masculinity?
Well...
(Twinkle English Academy)
There we go.
You look so cute. You're all done.
The chairman's here.
The chairman?
Tony's grandfather must be here. He's all ready.
Let's go.
I'm so sorry about what happened yesterday.
We should've been more careful.
I'm sorry.
Thank goodness you found Tae Woong.
What would you have done if you had lost him?
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, sir.
Hello.
Please be more careful from now on.
Tae Woong's a very precious grandchild.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, sir.
Grandpa.
(I am also Mother)
What an easy life you have.
I'm not doing this for fun.
I'm going to make you quit working at the company. Got it?
Yeo Min Kyung apparently...
got pointed out as a celebrity who habitually gets propofol injections.
She likes you, but she's scared.
All she needs is a guy who can strongly hold onto her.
If I meet a woman who's 100 percent perfect, I don't think...
I'll ever let her go.
