(Episode 58)
Mr. Min has a lot to do today.
He's working late.
(Min Ji Seok Law Office)
Who could it be at this hour?
I wonder.
I came to see Ji Seok. I'm at the lobby.
He must be insane.
Who was it?
I'm not sure. No one is here.
My goodness.
You were here too?
- I can't believe you. - Wait.
How dare you come here?
My goodness. Come here.
What are you doing here?
Why do you ask? Didn't you see my text?
I came to see Ji Seok.
Exactly. Why?
- To ask him for money. - What?
Are you crazy?
What can I do?
After you kicked me out like that,
I didn't even have enough money for dinner.
It's not like I can go and ask my ex-wife's family for help.
What were you going to say to him?
Are you here to brag about...
how your business completely failed,
then how you bought me a fake ring,
and got kicked out because of that?
Why do you think I had to get a counterfeit ring?
You're really picky about this.
You're such a picky person.
Only high-end brands can satisfy you.
Yes, that's right.
I'm used to only high-end brands.
I thought you were a high-class man too.
Stop looking down on me.
Not all lions are violent.
A gentle lion is a lion too.
Don't look down on me because of my circumstances.
I still have potential.
Still, you shouldn't have come here.
I was just going to ask him to buy me dinner.
When his uncle is in a difficult situation,
he should help out.
Also, he thinks of you as his mother.
Be quiet.
I didn't marry you because I wanted to...
show up in front of Ji Seok like this.
Lower your voice.
Even if you run into Ji Seok, don't go into his office.
If you do, I'll never see you again.
Then let me go home.
I'm starving.
My goodness.
Here.
Take this and disappear.
Don't be like that. Let me come home with you.
Gosh.
Then find a way to make money.
You might want to come back to that house,
but I can't wait to get out of there.
How could I make money at my age?
Men at my age are retired, and they look after grandchildren.
I've made myself clear.
Honey.
I couldn't tell her that I failed to find investors...
in this situation.
How will I make money at my age?
Where should I go?
Where...
What is it?
Nothing. Let's go.
What was it? Did you see someone?
I think I saw the man living with my aunt.
Your aunt's new husband?
Yes.
I feel so bad whenever I see him.
But I don't want anyone to ruin my mood while I'm with you.
To you, he must be what that woman is to me.
- I mean my dad's lover. - Exactly.
- Let's go. - Okay.
I'll get going now.
Okay. Bye.
Who is he?
He wants the part-time job.
You haven't hired a new part-timer?
You said there was someone you liked.
He was supposed to start today,
but he didn't show up, and I can't reach him.
People are so irresponsible these days.
Gosh.
I had so many customers today.
I couldn't take any break.
That's too bad. I hope you'll find someone soon.
- You'll get sick at this rate. - I know.
It's so hard to find a part-timer.
Let's stop talking about it. Why don't we...
Sure.
Go ahead.
You should drink after a bad day.
Gosh, I'd love to have a drink too.
That's my shoe.
Did she see me?
- What are you looking at? - That shoe.
The customer hasn't come back yet?
No. He probably doesn't know he left it here.
I don't like that shoe.
- Why not? - Don't you remember?
Tae Pyung used to like that kind of shoes.
I did think that it looked familiar.
Don't tell me it's his.
- What? - Have you been...
meeting him behind my back?
- Am I crazy? - What?
You two were very close.
Still, after all that's happened, how could I meet him?
I don't talk to him anymore.
So? Are you sad about it?
Sad, my foot.
I've erased him from my mind.
I'll never see him again in my life.
When you become unsure, remind yourself...
of what he did to our sick Go Woon.
I could never forget it.
He even sued us.
I know. It doesn't end there.
He slapped Go Ya in the face too.
Even if you want to forgive him,
I won't let you.
Am I crazy? Why would I forgive him?
When I die,
I'll make sure he and Oh Na Ra die with me.
I'll make sure they're punished.
My goodness.
If I stay here, I don't know what they'll do to me.
Mr. Swallow.
Come here.
What's the matter?
I'm sorry. I have to go now. Let's talk some other time.
- Hold on. - What?
Eat it while it's hot.
- It's for me? - Yes.
Why?
I just like you.
- You like me? - Yes.
I like you too.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Why are you standing here?
I got some buns for you.
It's cold. Why would you walk outside?
Why didn't you just go to bed?
He was worried if his mom was hungry.
You're so sweet.
San Deul used to do this when he was little.
I was working as a hair salon assistant.
When I come home late at night,
San Deul would be standing outside the door...
with roasted sweet potatoes in his hands.
He would give them to me, saying, "Mom, you must be hungry."
There you go again.
It's just that I've been through so much.
While raising him without a husband,
I cried so many times.
Don't cry anymore.
I'm sure San Deul wasn't lonely thanks to you.
It's the same for me.
Go Woon is right.
Stop now.
Your son turned out so well in the end.
You're right. My son is the best.
He entered and graduated from the best university of education...
in the country top of his class.
My son, Choi San Deul, teaches sixth-graders
at Kkumnamu Elementary School
That's right.
Let's go now.
- Let's go. - Let's go, Go Woon.
Still, it's hard to breathe in the dark.
It brings back memories.
(Nyctophobia)
What are you doing?
I'm studying.
Nyctophobia?
Why would you fear darkness? Darkness is so beautiful.
All exciting things happen at night.
Go to bed.
By the way, why did you start to like him?
It began in the elevator.
What? Did you...
That's not it.
He once shared his umbrella with me.
In the elevator, I saw that...
his one shoulder was completely wet...
because he covered me with his umbrella.
My heart suddenly started to beat fast.
That's it?
Are you a kid? Why would you become so happy about such a thing?
Have you had your first kiss yet?
You have.
I guess you're not that innocent after all.
- You're doing all the things. - Aren't you going to bed?
You always end up saying dirty things.
Still,
don't give all of your heart away though.
- What do you mean? - You never know.
What if his family...
doesn't approve of you and tries to break you two up?
If they don't, will you go eat your hat again?
Do you think...
you'll gladly let your son marry a girl like you?
What am I like?
First of all,
you look really tacky. And you're from a lousy family.
You're the lousiest part of my family.
The fact that you're my sister.
- What? - And...
everyone lives similar lives.
His family also has wounds and pain of the past.
Not as bad as my family.
His aunt...
also abandoned her family and left like our dad.
And she was like a mom to him.
Just as Oh Na Ra has hurt our family,
his family was also hurt because of that man...
who broke his family.
Aunt. Could she be...
even better than Lee Jeong Hwa?
For example, Ha Ji Na's daughter.
If she's Ha Ji Na's daughter, she's a daughter of a conglomerate.
If that's the case,
it's even better.
I guess your dream will become a reality, after all.
You were dying to have Ha Ji Na as your daughter-in-law.
You might get her daughter as your granddaughter-in-law.
- I'm home. - Welcome back.
- You're here. - Yes.
Right, may I invite my girlfriend on this weekend?
Does she want to do that?
Yes, she wants to meet you.
You'll find out soon enough,
but the more you meet her, the more charming she gets.
Are you taking sides already?
I'm just asking you to be nice to her.
I'll go upstairs.
Okay. Go get some rest.
What's with him? He sounds so silly.
That's how my son behaved...
when he said he's bringing you over.
Anyway, it's thanks to me that you get to meet her...
this quickly.
What do you mean?
To be honest, I found out...
the girl's number behind his back and gave her a call.
I said I wanted to meet her.
Have you considered her feelings?
She must've been shocked and burdened.
Think about how I felt.
He's already head over heels.
What if he brings her later, and I end up not liking her?
The longer they date each other,
the harder it'll be to break them up.
I need to see her now.
If I like her, I'll get them married as soon as possible.
If I don't,
I'm breaking them up.
It's someone that Ji Seok likes.
Why are you thinking about breaking them up first?
And she will be my future daughter-in-law.
Please excuse me.
Goodness.
I can't believe her.
This is dangerous.
Your touch is giving me butterflies.
I miss her already.
Goodness, good for you, Go Ya.
I heard you're meeting your future mother-in-law.
Yes.
She's not her mother-in-law.
Why? She'll be her mother-in-law once she gets married.
Go Ya, don't lose your heart.
Stay confident and be yourself.
- Okay. - Yes.
They might think our family isn't much at first,
but everyone has to approve of you after they get to know you.
- I guarantee that. - Thank you.
Don't worry about me.
Be all ears to what his family has to say.
If they don't approve of you,
I don't want him either. I don't care if he's a lawyer.
Let's go, Go Woon.
Stop saying that they'll not approve of her.
If they didn't like you at all,
they wouldn't invite you home.
Goodness, if they end up not approving of you,
it's all because your mom jinxed this.
I'll be back.
Oh, right.
Give me one second.
Your party left...
this notebook here.
Oh, an appointment?
Give me one second.
Where's my notebook?
San Deul.
My goodness. Where is it?
San Deul.
Didn't you go to work?
I'm about to.
I've been calling out your name.
Really? I'm looking for something.
Are you looking for this?
Where did you find that?
You left it at my company's cafe.
They remembered that you were there with me and gave it to me.
I see. I'll have that.
Don't touch it.
What is this?
What?
What is this notebook?
It's...
Kim Na Rae, 30 dollars. Ma Dan Bi, 50 dollars.
Kim Eun Bin, 50 dollars.
Go Ya...
Are you...
taking bribes from parents?
Are you insane?
Then what is this list?
Why can't you answer me?
It's my fortune-telling fee.
Fortune-telling fee?
(Diploma, Choi San Deul)
Just trust me
I will keep my eyes on only you
I will embrace you for the rest of my life
San Deul, are you insane?
A tarot card reader?
Do you tell fortune with tarot cards?
Yes.
When did you quit working at school?
Three years ago.
That means you fooled us for three years.
- I'm sorry. - Yes, you should be.
I can't believe the degree to which you betrayed us.
How can you betray your family like this?
This is going to kill Aunt.
That's why I couldn't tell.
I kept on telling myself that I have to tell her.
But whenever she brags to people about how I'm a teacher,
I just couldn't bring it up.
I knew it would kill her to find this out.
You know it so well.
What will you do now?
It's not like I wanted to quit either.
You worked hard to achieve your dream too.
It was like that for me too.
I wasn't happy at all...
doing something that my mom wanted me to do.
But I'm happy now.
I love my work.
I can take your side no matter what you do for a living.
But not this.
If this was your dream, you should've stood up for it.
You can't deceive your family and do this. This is wrong.
- I know. - We need to tell Aunt.
- I'll be there with you. - Go Ya.
- Give me a little more time. - San Deul.
Please.
It already makes me so nervous that you found out.
Will you give me some time to get a hold of myself?
I'm sorry.
You're going over to meet your boyfriend's parents today.
I'm sorry to trouble you like this from the morning.
You need to get a hold of yourself as soon as possible.
Okay.
What will I do with Aunt?
And with San Deul?
Your husband is always drunk,
and your kids never listen to you.
For those working moms, when you come back home...
from a long and a tough day,
you see a mountain of chores that are waiting for you.
What are you doing here?
What can I do?
After you kicked me out like that,
I didn't even have enough money for dinner.
It's not like I can go and ask my ex-wife's family for help.
What were you going to say to him?
Are you here to brag about...
how your business completely failed,
then how you bought me a fake ring,
and got kicked out because of that?
Why do you think I had to get a counterfeit ring?
You're really picky about this.
You're such a picky person.
Only high-end brands can satisfy you.
Yes, that's right.
I'm used to only high-end brands.
I thought you were a high-class man too.
Stop looking down on me.
Not all lions are violent.
A gentle lion is a lion too.
Don't look down on me because of my circumstances.
I still have potential.
As you become stressed out, your blood pressure goes up.
Are you wondering how that's related to the kidney?
In fact, your stress level and blood pressure...
are closely related to your kidney health.
When your stress level goes up,
your adrenaline level increases.
In turn, your blood pressure goes up,
and it affects your kidney.
High blood pressure can cause many kidney diseases.
With raised blood pressure,
the glomeruli in your kidney become damaged,
which causes the kidney malfunction.
Studies show that 85 percent of kidney patients...
have high blood pressure.
Yang Sook, what are you doing?
I'd love to have a drink with you.
I'm not in the situation to drink.
Mom.
I'm taking Go Woon to the hospital.
Okay. Make sure he wears warm clothes.
Don't worry.
By the way, Go Ya is...
meeting her boyfriend's family today, right?
Yes. I'm worried.
About what?
I hope she won't talk too much...
about our family there.
What do you mean?
That her dad had an affair...
and that she and her dad sued each other.
Come on.
It's too embarrassing to tell anyone.
I don't think she'll tell her future mother-in-law all that.
Go Ya can sometimes be too honest.
I hope she won't say any unnecessary things.
Once she does, she won't be able to marry this guy.
She must know better than talk about those things, right?
But you seemed like you didn't want Go Ya to get married.
Still, I'm not okay with the guy's family not accepting her.
If they don't want to accept her,
I won't just sit back.
- She's coming over? - Today?
Yes. That's right.
If you're introducing her to the family,
maybe you'll get married to her.
Well, as long as she is fine with that.
Eun Seok, is he really Ji Seok?
You said you've seen so many couples...
who can't stand being together anymore and get divorced...
that you don't want to get married. Where did that guy go?
- Exactly. - By the way,
will your mother like Go Ya?
She has a very high standard...
for her future daughters-in-law.
But now that she is getting old, she seems to have changed a lot.
- What do you mean? - The other day, she said...
what Ji Seok wants is what she wants...
and she is happy as long as Ji Seok is happy.
She said she'd approve of any girl...
Ji Seok brings.
Did she say that?
Yes, she did.
What time is she coming?
At 6pm. Come if you have time.
No. I won't come for your girlfriend's sake.
She's coming over for the first time.
I don't think I should be there.
It'll make her uncomfortable.
You're so thoughtful.
I have to go now. Please excuse me.
- Okay. - Already?
I want to meet someone before meeting my girlfriend.
I see.
Go Woon, play with this phone here.
- I'll go pay the bills. - Okay.
- Hi, Go Woon. - Hi.
Did you have an appointment today?
Yes. You said you had recovered. Why are you here again?
I'm here to see you.
To see me? Why?
To keep my promise.
I promised I'd grant you a wish, remember?
Oh, that's right.
Tell me what it is.
Don't be shy. Go ahead. What is it?
- Riding a bicycle. - Riding a bicycle?
Yes. Please teach me how to ride a bicycle.
That's it?
Yes. I'm a year older now.
I want to show my family that I can do something.
Especially my eldest sister. We're planning to...
go on a bicycle trip when I recover.
I want to start practicing.
I see.
Okay. I'll teach you.
There's a playground near your house, right?
Let's practice there for 30 minutes whenever we have time, okay?
That sounds good.
How did you know there is a playground near my house?
What?
I kissed your sister there.
Of course I know.
There is usually a playground in every neighborhood.
I see.
I'll text you my address then.
- Okay. Let's do this. - Okay.
Here you go.
- Ye Kyung. - Yes?
Have you ever seen a girl who looks like this from behind?
Do you think you can find that girl with that picture?
Hello.
- Hello. - Hi.
You're working this weekend?
Yes. I had to get the market research data.
I'm going home after checking the display here.
Do you like the new display?
Of course.
Customers seem to love it.
That's great.
Are you going on a date?
You're dressed up.
I'm meeting some elderly people.
Do you mean your boyfriend's parents?
Yes. Excuse me now.
Bye.
I'm jealous.
Doesn't she look...
a bit like the girl in the picture?
Wait. She does.
Could it be her?
No way.
It'd be perfect for his grandmother.
What should I get for his mother?
This one?
This one looks good too.
Hello, ma'am.
Why do we keep running into each other?
It's not like I want to see her.
Are you looking for clothes?
Yes.
Can you help me with something?
I was looking for a cardigan.
It's for a woman about your age. She is a bit thin...
and likes bright colors.
Which of these two should I get?
Well... I'd choose that one.
Thank you.
(Ji Seok)
Hello?
I was getting something for your mother.
Mother? Goodness.
I can't believe she has a boyfriend.
How can she be so shameless?
She'll run a man's life.
She and her father...
sued each other. It was a mess.
What kind of family would accept her?
Does the guy's mom know...
what a mess her family is?
I have a son too.
I feel so sorry for her.
Maybe I shouldn't have helped her.
We must have bought the same thing.
Gosh.
Why did you buy so much?
I bought cardigans for your grandmother and mother.
You didn't have to.
I couldn't have done that.
They did such a great job raising you.
I want to give them a nice present.
How can you be so sweet?
Are you teasing me again?
- Shall we go? - Yes.
I'm nervous.
Don't worry. I'll stay right next to you.
Okay.
Hi, Ji Seok.
We'll be there soon.
Really? Come in. I'm all ready too.
Mom, I just got to Ji Seok's house.
I'll call you after.
Why am I so nervous about this?
Shall we?
Okay.
(Forever Enemies)
You need to run me an errand.
Yang Sook, it's so cold.
What about your dad?
I wish Mr. Min puts on a huge smile after he sees this.
Keep it as a secret.
Your life's savior saved my mom too?
If you had met her, you would've adored her too.
Let me ask you for a favor.
Good for you.
You're loved by a good man like Ji Seok.
Did you bring her?
Why does it have to be you?
