(Episode 8)
Jin Sup.
Do you think you'll be able to run away from me?
You'll end up abandoning your wife.
Honey.
I think we're fighting too often these days.
I love you.
I love you so much.
I'm sorry for giving you a hard time.
It's all my fault.
I feel sorry for those who risk everything they have for love.
Cut the nonsense, and just lend me some money.
There's no such thing as love.
Love is just a futile fantasy.
That's why novels, dramas, and movies keep talking about love.
It's because it doesn't exist in real life.
I want to know if you can lend me money or not.
You asked me why I'm willing to get married to someone I don't love.
This is my answer to your question.
I don't care about that.
Money. Money.
I just want you to lend me some money.
Do you have any more questions?
Well...
Well, the thing is...
What is it? Why are you so hesitant?
I'm in a little bit of debt.
I'll pay off all your debt if you get married to me.
Really?
I owe quite a lot of money.
I don't care how much you owe. I'll clear off all your debts.
I have a lot of money. You're jealous, aren't you?
Yes.
Should I just get married to him?
Then I'll be able to get rid of my debt right away.
I want to give Jin Hee...
a mother as soon as possible.
Then let's say we do get married.
What if we get divorced because we really can't stand each other?
Will you be paying me alimony?
No. I won't be giving you any alimony.
That's because I'll never be the one to ask for a divorce.
So I guess you're really asking for a loveless marriage.
Do you really think couples stay married because of love?
They just stay married because they don't want to...
lose their face or hurt their child.
So in the end, they stay married not because they love each other,
but because they can't get divorced.
They stay together because they don't want to go through a divorce.
Okay, let's say you're right.
I have one more question.
Go ahead. Ask me anything.
Do we sleep together?
Were you curious about that?
You seem really naive, but I guess you're not.
My gosh, what are you talking about?
That wasn't clearly stated in the contract, so I wanted to make sure.
I'm not going to sleep with the woman I get married to.
Why?
I don't want to give my heart nor my body...
to the woman I got married to by contract.
You're really full of yourself.
Listen to me.
You're not attractive enough for me to want to sleep with you anyway.
I'm glad to hear that.
Gosh, I'm getting tipsy.
Let's keep drinking like we're crazy.
Okay, okay. Let's do this.
Here.
- Are you up? - Where's Jin Sup?
Don't tell me he didn't come home after leaving like that last night.
Good for you.
I'm going to go to his office later to give him...
some new clothes and food.
I cooked taro soup, your favorite.
How do you expect me to eat when my son didn't even come home?
Mother, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for not being more considerate about Se Ran.
I'll really do better from now on.
I always have a good reason behind scolding you, you know.
I only keep yelling at you...
because you can't have babies, and you don't do anything right.
I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
Grill some dried yellow corvinas.
Dried yellow corvinas are the best when I don't have an appetite.
Okay, Mother. Drink this first.
You should always succumb to me like this.
Excuse me, can you tell me what happened?
We got drunk and spent the night together.
We didn't sleep together, did we?
It's a possibility.
My gosh, that's not good.
Are you really going to get married to me?
Me? Why would I do that?
"Let's just get married." That's what you said.
I can't have said that.
Don't be so sure.
My gosh, this is my signature.
I'll go to work now.
Wait. Hey! This is not fair.
Does this mean I really have to get married?
Did Ms. Jo take the day off again?
She came early in the morning and told me to give you this.
"A letter of resignation"?
My gosh, how can she just quit without giving me any prior notice?
She's getting married in two months.
Really? Does she have a boyfriend?
She's probably getting married because she does.
I'll return the credit card you gave me.
Thank you for everything.
I can't believe this. "Thank you for everything"?
Hwa Young, are you really going to break up with me?
(My love, Lee Jin Sup)
The receiver cannot pick up the phone. Please leave a message...
Hwa Young, are you really trying to drive me crazy?
(22 Missed Calls: My Love, Lee Jin Sup)
Jin Sup.
Hey, loser. You must be really desperate right now.
But then again, I do find this quite charming.
(My love, Lee Jin Sup)
(Loser)
I'm furious.
I'm going to call you until you pick up, Hwa Young.
Mr. Lee, your wife's here.
My gosh, why did she have to come all the way here?
Tell her to come inside.
I brought you some new clothes and breakfast.
This is your oriental medicine.
I was going to heat it up for you at home.
But you're at the office more often, so I just brought it here.
Make sure you drink them, okay?
Forget it.
I can't be bothered to gain energy. I'm not that excited about life.
Why? Did something happen at work?
Did something bad happen at work?
Just forget it. I'll take care of it on my own.
By the way, Ms. Jo wasn't outside.
I need to tell her to make sure you take your medicine.
- Did she quit? - Why would she quit?
Do you want her to quit?
My gosh, you startled me. I never said I wanted her to quit.
You didn't have to yell at me like that.
I was just frustrated because you suddenly came...
and started wasting my time when I have a lot of work to do.
Okay, fine. I'll go soon.
You didn't eat breakfast, did you?
I'll leave after I see you eat.
I'll eat later. Just leave it there.
Honey.
Are you still angry at me?
Just leave the food there and leave!
I already have a headache because there's a lot going on at work.
Honey.
Please just leave.
I guess there really is a big problem at work.
Did you miss me that much?
That's not why I'm here.
I came to make an objection regarding the marriage contract.
- Let's just get married. - We don't even love each other.
We met through a blind date.
That means we liked each other's condition.
The problem is that we won't love each other even after marriage.
Instead, you'll have money.
And I know money is something you desperately need right now.
That's true.
Not only will you be able to pay back all your debts,
but you'll also get to buy expensive designer shoes and bags.
It doesn't sound so bad.
So let's just get married.
Do you really think this is going to be okay?
I'll go introduce myself to your family tonight.
Are we really going to get married?
And what do you think about getting married on Saturday?
That fast?
- Hey, Ye Eun. - Hi.
Sang Eun, I'm sorry about what happened with my savings account.
It's okay. That's not a problem.
Mom, someone's going to come tonight.
You don't need to cook too many stuff,
but please prepare a meal with a couple side dishes.
Who am I cooking for?
Your future son-in-law.
My future son-in-law?
Sang Eun, were you seeing someone?
What kind of person is he?
His name's Choi Jae Woong, and he's s cosmetic surgeon.
- He appears on TV and... - "Choi Jae Woong"?
Are you talking about the famous doctor who appears on TV?
Yes. I'm going to get married to him on Saturday this month.
What? Saturday of this month?
Are you crazy? Why are you in such a rush?
He wants to get married quickly.
He's in a rush because he likes me so much.
- Ye Eun, let's go. - Where?
We need to go grocery shopping for dinner.
What? Oh, okay.
You don't need to make a fuss. Just give him what we have.
What should I make? I need to cook some new dishes.
My gosh, Mom.
(Min Won Ik)
Honey.
It's lonely here, isn't it?
I'm also having a hard time every day because you're not here.
I feel empty...
and lonely.
Chairwoman Na, we should head back now.
Yes, we should.
I knew Hyung Joo would come.
Now, it's time to start my mission.
- Are you okay? - No.
I'm a little dizzy.
Mom looks really exhausted.
I don't want to leave my husband.
I don't want to go home all by myself.
It's...
It's so scary to live all by myself.
- Chairwoman Na. - Chairwoman Na.
- Mom! - Chairwoman Na.
- Chairwoman Na, are you okay? - Chairwoman Na.
Chairwoman Na.
Mom. Mom!
Hyung Joo, she couldn't even eat properly. She had a hard time.
- I'll carry her on my back. - Chairwoman Na.
Hyung Joo, I'm sorry for doing this.
But if I don't do this, I know you're going to stay hidden.
Mom, are you okay?
Hyung Joo. Are you really Hyung Joo?
- I'm sorry. - Hyung Joo.
You're not going to leave again, are you?
You're not going to leave me all by myself, right?
I won't.
Ms. Yang. Ms. Yang.
- Yes, ma'am. - Hyung Joo's home.
Please cook braised pollack,
seafood shabu-shabu, and... What else is there?
I'm already cooking his favorite dishes for dinner.
Hyung Joo, I'm so happy.
I finally feel alive now that you're here.
Hyung Joo.
I guess my freedom's over now.
By the way, did you call Jin Sup?
Yes, I called him in the afternoon.
But he couldn't pick up because he was in a meeting.
You should try calling him again.
He should be here to meet your sister's soon-to-be husband.
Okay.
The receiver's phone is turned off. Please leave a message...
You turned off your phone?
My gosh, she's so slow-witted.
Everything about her is great expect for the fact that she's slow-witted.
(Wife)
Honey, I know you're busy. But please call me back.
- It's something important. - "Something important"?
(Wife)
Honey, did you get off work?
No, not yet.
A CEO doesn't have fixed working hours like regular employees.
I'm busy. Just tell me why you've called.
Sang Eun's going to bring her fiance home tonight.
Sang Eun's getting married?
Yes. I know you're busy.
But I was wondering if you could join us for dinner.
Why didn't you tell me earlier?
I'm a busy person.
How can you just call me last minute?
I can't make time tonight.
Okay.
Make sure you eat dinner.
My gosh, why is he so edgy these days?
Please enjoy.
- What? - Do you have a lot of customers?
Why do you care whether I have a lot of customers or not?
You should come home for dinner.
Sang Eun's going to bring her fiance home tonight.
My gosh, Sang Eun's getting married?
My goodness, this is unbelievable.
Mom, I told you not to cook too many dishes. Why did you make so much?
Sang Eun, are you really getting married?
And are you really getting married to Choi Jae Woong?
Is this really happening?
Yes. Things kind of turned out that way.
My goodness, you'll be able to turn your life around now.
Sang Eun, congratulations!
I heard he was married once.
I think you could do better.
Hey, you don't know anything.
Not all divorced men are alike.
Do you know how rich,
smart, and good-looking he is?
My goodness, that must be him.
- Who is it? - Sang Eun, its' me.
Come in.
Jin Hee wanted to join, so I brought her with me.
- Hello. - I'm glad you came. Let's go in.
Come inside.
Here.
Jae Woong, this is my mom.
- Hello. - Welcome.
- Hello. - She's my daughter.
You're so pretty.
I wasn't able to clean properly, and I couldn't cook many dishes...
because I heard about your visit this morning.
Mother, please let me bow to you first.
My gosh, it's okay. You don't need to bow.
Mom, you should let him bow. He's your future son-in-law.
"Future son-in-law"?
That doesn't sound so bad.
I'm so jealous.
- Is it delicious? - Yes.
Sang Eun, I'm so jealous of you.
He's really that guy from TV. He's so cool.
No one that famous has ever come to our house before.
You're right. I hope Mom will also meet someone nice like him.
- That's impossible. - Why?
I heard men don't like women who have kids.
Does that mean Mom won't ever be able to get married again?
I feel so sorry for her.
What are you doing?
My goodness, be careful.
My gosh.
What were you guys doing there?
Don't cause a fuss, and just wait in your room.
Da Hong, let them join us for dinner.
No, it's okay.
Da Hong's practically Sang Eun's sister.
- So would that be okay? - Yes, of course.
Come in. I always eat alone, so I like eating with many people.
It's okay.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello, it's nice to meet you.
My princess, there are so many delicious dishes here. Eat up.
Okay.
They say mothers tend to love their sons-in-law more than fathers.
Why did you cook so many dishes?
I'm so touched, Mother.
My gosh, he's so sly.
- He seems like a decent man. - I agree.
You must've been surprised at how quickly we decided to get married.
I just wanted to get married with Sang Eun as soon as possible.
My parents live abroad,
so you don't need to buy anything for our marriage.
All you need to give me is Sang Eun.
Mother, I'll treat Sang Eun well.
You hypocrite.
If she finds out about our contract marriage,
my mom will collapse in an instant.
My goodness, you're such a gentleman.
You're a lot handsomer in real life, and you're really kind too.
You're also very manly.
Why is she overreacting? She's not the one getting married.
Jin Hee, eat up.
Okay, Sang... No, wait.
- Okay, Mom. - "Mom"?
Okay, my daughter. Eat up.
Here, eat up.
Byung Sook.
Why aren't you eating?
I need money.
Why do you suddenly need so much money?
Why do you need so much money when you don't even have a job?
I'm trying to get myself a job!
How?
I'm going to get cosmetic surgery.
I need to become pretty in order to get a job.
What? You're going to get cosmetic surgery?
How many surgeries are you going to get?
You're asking for so much money.
I'm going to do my eyes, my nose, and...
Anyway, I went to a cosmetic clinic to get a consultation.
And the doctor said I'll need at least that much money.
What?
You're already pretty. What's there to change about you?
Dad, I'm going to get cosmetic surgery no matter what.
That's the only way I'll be able to get treated like a human being.
Shut it.
Let's say you do get cosmetic surgery. What about your fat?
What are you going to do about all this fat?
That's why I'm starving. I'm trying to lose weight.
Then lose weight first.
Are you going to give me money if I do?
Yes. If you lose weight, I'll give you that money.
My gosh.
Byung Sook.
You don't need cosmetic surgery. You're already pretty.
You're a natural beauty.
Be proud of yourself.
You can do it.
Let's lose weight first.
I only skipped one meal. Why am I so hungry?
Honey. Honey.
Are you really going to give her money if she loses weight?
My goodness.
Do you really think she'll be able to lose weight?
There's no way. She'll never be able to lose weight.
My goodness.
Is that why you said you'll give her money if she loses weight?
You're so cute.
I'm always cute.
"I'm always cute."
My goodness.
She's going to take a man home?
Come here, Hwa Young.
- Who is he? - He's my boss.
To be exact, he's my former boss.
What's your boss doing in front of your house?
I quit without giving him any prior notice.
I didn't even transfer my duties to anyone.
Hwa Young.
Mr. Lee, I'm sorry for quitting so suddenly.
But it's rude of you to come to my house at such a late hour.
As I already told you,
he's my former boss.
And he's Mr. Kim Dae Young.
I'm going to get married to him if things turn out well.
Hello.
I didn't have time to transfer my duties to my successor.
But I'll do it tomorrow.
So I'd like you to respect my private life...
and leave, Mr. Lee.
I'll do whatever you tell me to.
I'll get divorced if that's what you want.
- What are you doing? - Get lost. She's mine.
Hwa Young, the fact that I can't see you is driving me crazy.
I can't do anything. I think I might go insane.
Seeing you with someone else has made me realize that...
I'll never be able to let you go.
Can you take responsibility for what you just said?
Yes.
Hwa Young, I love you.
Hey, what are you two doing?
I'm sorry. I went on a blind date out of anger...
just so that I could break up with him.
But I don't think I can do it.
Are you guys shooting a movie?
Are you trying to joke with me?
I'm really sorry.
My gosh, what a ridiculous situation.
Hey.
Hello?
I love you.
Can you leave your wife?
Answer me. Can you leave your wife?
Yes, I can leave her.
- I can do that for you. - You better keep that promise.
If you don't, I'm going to kill you.
Did you meet your future brother-in-law?
Yes.
Your old sister who's nothing but tall is finally getting married.
Your mother must be relieved now.
By the way, hasn't Jin Sup come home yet?
No.
It seems like he's sleeping out too often these days.
He said he needs to work until late because he has a lot of work...
Se Ran just called and told me that she's coming back next month.
"Next month"?
Doesn't she still have one more year left of school?
Why? Aren't you happy that she's coming in a year early?
No. I just think she return after she finishes her studies.
Don't worry about Se Ran. She knows how to take care of herself.
You should worry about Jin Sup. He might end up collapsing...
if he keeps working so hard like this.
We paid so much money for Se Ran's tuition abroad.
The least she could do is finish her studies.
The receiver cannot pick up the phone. Please leave a message...
Honey, is there something wrong?
I feel nervous.
I keep feeling nervous and scared.
Did you sleep well?
Yes. It's been a while since I slept so well.
My gosh, it feels so nice to wake up with you.
Eggrolls, braised beef, and spinach
- Ta-da. - You cooked bean paste stew.
I want you to get divorced in a month.
"A month"?
Don't you think I'll need more time?
You'll end up not doing anything if I give you more time.
If you can't do it, let's just end it here.
No, I'll get divorced. I can do it.
I'm going to stay here for a few days.
She does trust me, and she is a little slow-witted.
But if I keep sleeping out without even calling her,
I'm sure she'll sense that something's up.
I'm going to give you a month. If you don't get divorced by then,
I'm going to start doing things my way.
Okay.
Eat up.
My goodness.
His house is really nice.
See? He told me not to buy anything...
because he already has everything.
He bought new furniture and kitchenware when he moved last year.
But how can I not buy anything when you're getting married?
Look around.
Everything's new. There's nothing to buy.
Ta-da.
Jae Woong gave me his credit card.
He said I can use this to buy what I need.
My goodness.
My son-in-law has such a big heart.
"My son-in-law"?
I guess money really does make people happy.
Does he know that you're in debt?
He already paid everything for me.
My goodness.
You're so lucky. You met such a great man.
I'm not exactly lucky.
I just gave up love for money.
Ye Eun, why are you so quiet?
Ye Eun, is there something wrong?
Mom, what did you say?
Is there something wrong?
Why are you so absentminded lately?
I'm just really tired these days.
Sang Eun's getting married soon,
and Se Ran's coming back to Korea next month.
Your sister-in-law's coming back to Korea?
My gosh, she's going to give you such a hard time.
Your mother-in-law and sister-in-law are going to be so mean to you.
I understand why you're so out of it.
Your sister-in-law is really difficult to handle.
Jae Woong, this is so unfair.
I didn't even get to get married once.
But this is already your second time.
And you even asked me to check if anyone could sing for you.
Wasn't that a bit too much?
If my marriage annoys you, you should get married too.
Say hello. He's the groom-to-be.
And he's my close friend. He'll be singing at your wedding.
Hello, my name is Cha Do Hoon. Congratulations on your wedding.
I'm Choi Jae Woong.
- Please sing well. - Of course.
By the way, you're close with a lot of famous celebrities.
- Why didn't you invite them? - I'm not going to.
Like you said, it's my second wedding.
So I'm going to invite only my closest friends and family.
My goodness. Jin Sup.
Are you busy with work?
Yes, things are quite hectic.
Did you eat? Should I fix you a meal?
I need to go to a factory in Busan. I came to get some clothes.
Something feels weird.
They don't look as close as they used to.
I wonder if Jin Sup's cheating on Ye Eun.
No, that can't be.
He's crazy about Ye Eun. There's no way he'd cheat on her.
I'll... I'll do it.
Honey.
Is there something going on?
Let's get divorced.
What is it?
Is there really something going on with you?
Ye Eun.
Let's...
(Happy Sisters)
It's not normal for anyone to be this considerate.
You should be nice to Jae Woong and treat him well.
Don't get too touched by what I do for you.
- It's too pressuring. - What an arrogant prick.
I feel sorry to ask for a divorce when her sister's getting married.
Do you not feel sorry that you're cheating on her?
I wonder how Dad coped through all this.
I lost my husband and suffered so much because of that sly witch.
You mean brat.
Let's have some fun.
