I'm sorry, my dear.
I'm sorry.
How do you feel now?
Did you feel like crying because he's yours?
You fool.
You abandoned your child.
When you betrayed Soon Young,
you left him too.
How can you be so shameless to come and see us?
How could you ask to see Min Su?
This will be the last time.
Don't think of seeing him again.
I'm showing him to you only once.
How did they...
manage it until now?
Soon Young and Min Su.
How did they manage it until now?
Why would you ask that now? What do you want to know?
What does that have anything to do with you now?
After you abandoned her,
Soon Young was practically a corpse.
Min Su saved her life.
When I found out she was carrying your child,
I did all I could to make her terminate the pregnancy.
But when Soon Young found out she was pregnant,
that's when she finally started to eat.
That's why I couldn't stop her.
To Soon Young, Min Su is her life.
Without him,
who knows what would've happened to her?
So don't come here again...
or ask to see Min Su.
If you do, Soon Young might...
disappear with him.
Unless you want her to wander around with the little one,
don't visit us anymore.
Min Su is Soon Young's child, not yours.
You got to see him, so leave.
Soon Young will be home soon.
Wait.
Just a moment.
You have to go.
Soon Young will panic if she finds out you saw him.
Go already.
Remember what I said.
This is the only time you'll see him.
Don't come here again. Now go.
Get out.
You're home.
Min Su, I'm home.
Did you see anyone on your way back?
Who?
Was someone here?
What? No.
Who would visit?
I thought I heard a noise outside.
Did you have a good day, Min Su?
Did you?
How was today?
What do you mean?
I'm talking about Jeong Hoon's wife.
She must give you a hard time.
Why do you think she wanted you back?
It's to keep you close and torture you.
I don't care.
You'd better not give me a hard time.
I begged you not to, and you went and told him about Min Su.
Not that again.
I wish I could sew my mouth up, you know.
I'm off to work.
What are you talking about?
Why do you want to give the theme song to Hye Rin?
Because it has to be included in her album.
Do you think that makes sense?
I'll release your debut album sooner than planned.
Trust me and prepare for that.
No. I can't trust you.
I can't give up on the song.
The decision is mine.
You do as I say.
Mr. Cha!
Hye Rin will sing the theme song for the radio drama.
Help her practice.
Pardon?
What about Se Ra then?
I can't give up on the song.
Se Ra.
I practiced so hard.
I just have to record it.
Why must I give it up to Hye Rin?
I told you I made up my mind.
Must I repeat myself?
I told you the song was mine from the start.
You just wasted your time.
Why did Mr. Cha suddenly give you the song?
It had always been mine.
Se Ra practiced so hard. What a pity.
How could he?
How could he do this to me now?
Jeong Hoon came over today and saw Min Su.
He did?
Yes.
He betrayed the woman carrying his child,
but I guess he missed him so much that he came to visit.
Soon Young doesn't know.
He must have a conscience. He cried when he saw the boy.
That jerk.
I told Jeong Hoon already,
but that was the last time.
When you see your brother, give him that message.
Tell him not to think of seeing Min Su again.
If he keeps coming by...
because he wants to see the baby,
it'll make Soon Young suffer so much.
She might disappear with the kid.
How much more must she suffer...
because of your stupid brother?
Okay. I get what you mean.
I'll talk to Jeong Hoon.
What are you doing here, Madam Gu?
Didn't you quit?
Why would I quit?
I was so sick yesterday that I couldn't come to work.
Can you let me off this once?
I can't do that.
You skip work whenever you want.
We don't need you here, so get out.
Find another job!
I can't quit.
I'll starve without this job. Where else can I go?
Why that...
She doesn't take you seriously.
She's driving me insane.
Is something bothering you?
Why? Do I look downcast?
A bit.
Hey.
How's my brother at work?
Why do you ask that suddenly?
Is something up with him?
Kind of.
I see. I had a feeling something was wrong.
Why? Did something happen?
Not really.
I think he slept in the office a few nights ago after drinking.
His wife came over the next morning, and they fought.
So I wondered if something was wrong.
Jeong Hoon isn't fond of drinking,
and he never drinks too much.
You know Jeong Hoon's ex-girlfriend...
works at his wife's boutique.
What?
How did that happen?
I don't know.
It's a crazy coincidence.
How did she get a job there of all places?
So what? Does Jeong Hoon's wife know?
- Yes. - And she still works there?
I can't tell you much,
but that's what's going on.
Poor Jeong Hoon. He's caught in the middle.
He brought it upon himself.
To be honest,
when he left his ex-girlfriend...
and announced he'd marry Mi Jin, I was against it from the start.
After he passed the bar, it was disqualified,
and it hit him hard.
Yes. I think Mom and Grandma...
know why that happened,
but I still don't know the reason.
So how are things with you?
You have no problems with Bok Shil, right?
What? Is there a problem?
Because of your mom?
We decided to take a break from each other.
What do you mean? Did you break up?
Not really.
She's going to record a radio drama theme song.
Yes.
She said she wants to concentrate on her singing for now.
I told her to do so.
That's it?
Is her CEO preventing you from seeing her?
He disapproves of our relationship,
so I guess that plays a part.
It's fine as long as you two stay strong.
But you know,
your mom worries me.
When I see how she treats Hye Rin,
it disturbs me a bit.
I'm sorry.
It's not something you should apologize for.
I went to see your mom at her restaurant...
to ask her to let me date Bok Shil.
You did?
I bet my mom was mean to you.
Your mom doesn't like Bok Shil,
and that upset my mom a lot.
I promised your mom that I'd do everything...
to persuade mine.
Okay. I trust you.
Here.
Let's drink.
- Why are you so late? - I had a drink with Kyung Ho.
I heard he came to ask for your permission to date Bok Shil.
What good is my permission?
His own mom disapproves of Bok Shil.
He'll bring his mom around.
Can't you support those two at least?
Ok Boon.
Bring some drinking water in.
Okay.
Grandma, you're still up.
Hey, you're late tonight.
- Sleep well. - I will.
- Are you in touch with Jeong Hoon? - What?
Not recently. Why do you ask?
He hasn't called since he visited with Mi Jin,
so I'm curious.
They didn't seem to get along too well when they were here.
They need to have a baby to settle into family life.
- Go on inside. - What? Okay.
Oh Jeong Hoon speaking.
You're still there?
I'm still finishing up at work.
Will you be very late?
No, I was just about to leave.
Okay.
Is Jeong Hoon really at work?
Do you think he's somewhere else?
I just called him at work, and he picked up.
There's a lot to do with the dam project.
Don't call his office to check up on him.
He wouldn't do anything stupid.
Why shouldn't she check on him?
They say, "Fires should be checked after they're put out."
That means husbands should be kept in check.
Stop it.
I'm home.
Welcome. You're late.
Go upstairs. I'll bring your tonic.
- Yes, go get some rest. - Okay.
Mom, warm the tonic for me.
Can't you do it yourself?
Come with me.
Did you sort out Hye Rin?
Yes. She will sing the theme song.
Good. Well done.
Take special care of her even if I don't tell you to.
Don't make her come see me again.
- Do you understand? - Yes.
Jeong Hoon, here's your tonic.
Leave it there. I'll drink it later.
Drink it now.
It tastes worse when it's cold. Here.
Jeong Hoon, let's quickly have a baby.
I think I'll feel comfortable around you if we have a baby.
I might be able to shrug off this terrible feeling I have.
A baby is like a thread that connects a couple.
It can't be cut no matter what.
Right?
Drink this.
What's wrong?
I think he has a slight fever.
Let me see.
He's fine.
Stay home if you're worried.
I don't get what you're up to.
You can always pay her back some other way.
Why do you put up with seeing her?
She'll visit again if I quit.
What if she were to see Min Su?
If that family...
hears about Min Su, I'll never survive that.
How could I?
What kind of karma is this...
that we keep having to meet?
Take good care of Min Su for me.
Call if you notice anything's wrong.
I will, don't worry.
I don't know how to deal with this anymore.
What are you doing?
He must be enjoying something delicious in his dream.
Who is?
Who else would it be but Johnny?
My goodness, he slept out here?
Why are you all out here?
What are you staring at?
When did you come over last night?
You won't let me in so I had to sleep out here.
Sleep with me.
You can't let him.
What if he gives you lice?
They're all gone.
You disinfected the place.
Still, you stay away from Kyung Ho.
- Get to work. - See you.
- Bye. - Bye.
Johnny, you aren't welcome in our room either.
I'm off to work too.
- Take care. - Bye.
- Bye, Dad. - Bye.
See you.
Mal Soon, where's my breakfast?
Seeing Johnny eat in his dream made me hungry.
Is there enough for me?
Did you give me any for safe keeping?
You needn't feed him.
He ate so much in his sleep until now.
Why did you wake me up then?
My late mom...
had cooked me a feast...
and I was eating.
That dream means a windfall.
What?
It means a windfall?
Yes.
A dream of an ancestor giving you food...
means you will gain great wealth.
Sell it to me.
For how much?
I'll pay you when my son-in-law returns.
Put it on the tab.
No thanks.
Sell it to me then.
Forget it. Why would you buy someone else's dream?
I won't sell it anyway.
It means I'll get great wealth.
I'll buy a housing lottery ticket.
Can you afford to buy one?
You're right.
How much will you pay me?
I feed you already.
I won't buy a dream I didn't dream myself.
Food?
Fine. I'll sell you my dream.
Really?
Did you all hear that?
I bought the dream off Johnny.
Does it really mean we'll become wealthy?
It does.
My goodness.
I should buy a housing lottery ticket.
I lost out. What a pity.
Who will check the Hoseo Dam site today?
It's the first visit so I guess Mr. Oh?
Why hasn't he said anything?
One of us must go with him.
You're right.
He's been acting strange lately.
Last time he got drunk and slept in his office.
These days he doesn't bug us with work.
That's all because of the fight with his wife.
Even if he was dead drunk, why wouldn't he go home?
It was a serious fight.
It looks like it's lasting a while.
You have to look around the Hoseo Dam site.
Oh, right. I forgot about that.
I think I can go instead.
It's just a brief check.
- Will you do that? - Sure.
Jeong Hoon.
What is it?
Jeong Tae told me.
If you need my help, tell me at any time.
I will. Thanks.
Kyung Ho.
- Are you going out? - Yes.
I'm missing everyone today.
I came to see Mr. Hwang but he's not in.
I was hoping to have tea with you.
Sorry.
The theme song that Se Ra was going to sing.
It's mine now.
It had been mine from the start.
I wonder why Mr. Cha...
wanted to give it to Se Ra.
Is Mr. Cha in?
No. He went to the broadcasting station.
I see. Then is Bok Shil...
Oh Se Ra. Where is she?
She'll be in her room.
Bok Shil, it's me.
What are you doing here?
I came to see Mr. Cha but he's out.
- Yes. - What happened?
Hye Rin's going to sing your theme song?
How did you find out? You met her?
She was at my company.
I came over as soon as I heard.
I see.
I don't know why.
Mr. Cha told me to focus on my album...
and let Hye Rin sing the theme song.
I'm so upset.
I don't want to lose out.
Mother, how are you?
Hello, Hye Rin, what brings you here?
- Hello. - Hi.
What are you doing?
Can't you tell?
I'm making young radish kimchi, Kyung Ho's favorite.
I see. You seemed to like snacks so I brought some.
You don't have to bring us gifts.
You don't have to try winning brownie points.
You bought it already, so I'll take it.
Mal Soon has chili powder all over her hands.
Why is it so bland?
Choon Ja, get the fish sauce from my kitchen.
Tell your future daughter-in-law to get it.
Why should I?
You're right. Hye Rin, can you get it for me?
What? Okay...
Where's the kitchen?
Over there.
This will be so tasty.
Is this it?
That's it. Hand it over.
Do you want to mix it up?
Me?
I can tell that you never did any housework in your life.
You should start learning if you're to get married.
I'll show you what to do. Give it a go.
Go on, she told you to help.
That's it. Mix it up like this.
It'll take forever if you do it like that.
Stick your hands right in and mix it around like this.
That's it.
Oh dear.
What a disaster.
Housework takes a lot of practice, you know.
No woman is an expert from the start.
You pick things up one by one.
What a lovely sight.
A future mother and daughter-in-law making kimchi together.
They aren't in-laws yet.
Kyung Ho's the one who'll marry, not Mal Soon.
It depends on what he wants.
You know how filial Kyung Ho is.
He'll do what his mom wants in the end.
Right, Mal Soon?
That's right.
You just trust me, Hye Rin.
Even if I bring home the ugliest girl and tell him...
to marry her, he will.
Ok Boon, shall I help you?
- Don't bother. - Let me help.
Is this your first try?
What? Why?
If you add too much rice, it bursts.
Does it?
Choon Ja, what are you doing here?
Dad. I'm helping Ok Boon.
What do you think you can do to help?
No one starts off as an expert.
We pick things up.
My goodness.
I never thought you could say something so sweet.
Learn how to make gimbap and all sorts of things.
Then you can get married.
Don't worry, Dad.
I was so worried because I don't know of anyone...
who can teach Choon Ja how to keep a house.
Consider her a daughter and teach her all you know.
I will.
Do you have what I ordered?
- Of course. Jeong Woo. - Okay.
- Here you go. - Here's the money.
I'm so proud of you, Choon Ja.
Goodbye, then.
- Bye. - See you.
Why did it burst?
You can't put too much rice...
and you have to press down as you roll it.
Okay.
Ok Boon, isn't Jeong Tae a good son?
Of course he is.
Would he marry the ugliest girl...
if you wanted him to?
I don't know.
Don't worry about the ugly part.
Why isn't he here today?
Doesn't he help out before going to work?
He had plans.
Did he?
This burst too.
It still tastes good.
My goodness.
He let his guard down and lost the girl.
Don't those wigs cost a lot nowadays?
They do. A beautiful hairstyle...
is a huge part of a woman's charm.
Hang on. It looks like those ladies are planning something.
These are for the sale so finish them quick.
- Hello. - Welcome, ma'am.
- Hi. - Why are you here?
I dropped by after meeting the wives of the...
You're so shameless.
How dare you keep working here?
I told her to stay on.
Why?
I paid her in advance.
She has to work and pay me back.
She asked to be paid in advance?
What did you do with...
the money I gave your aunt? Why do you need even more?
I'll get back to work.
Stop right there.
You're married.
Do you have a baby?
Does your husband know of your past?
You supported him as if you were his wife for four years.
Does your husband know you dated someone so seriously?
What should we do about her manners?
I asked her a question and she left without answering.
Leave her alone. She's like that.
Jeong Hoon has terrible taste.
Why did he date her for four years?
Mom.
What if you paid her in advance?
Why keep her here?
She's a nuisance.
When do we begin construction on Hoseo Dam?
I sent staff to check the site.
We'll have a schedule soon.
Okay.
I have to work on getting nominated soon,
so I won't be able to help you out.
You'll have to run the company on your own.
Yes, sir.
To be able to focus on work,
you must have no other distractions.
Do you get my point?
Yes, I do.
I told you many times before you got married.
If you give Mi Jin a hard time...
because of a woman, I won't forgive you.
If you have anything to say about that, say it now.
I don't.
Good. You shouldn't.
Any problems at home will ruin my chances at being nominated.
I have to be careful but...
so do you and Mi Jin both.
Remember that.
Yes, sir.
A pretty young lady
Is dancing and singing
- We need to talk. - About what?
I'm sorry, sir. Hye Rin and I need to talk.
Okay. We can continue practicing later.
What did you do?
Why did you take my song?
You're the one who schemed.
This song was mine from the start.
You coaxed Mr. Cha and stole it from me.
I did not.
I can't let you have the song.
What are you doing here, Se Ra?
As the CEO, I decide who sings that.
It's not up to you to give up the song or not.
I don't get you...
or why you suddenly made this decision.
I can't trust you anymore.
I can't just do whatever you say.
If you won't obey,
then I can't keep you.
Fine. I'll leave.
I'll leave!
What are you doing?
Se Ra.
Why don't you trust me?
I'll release your album sooner.
Can't you give up one song?
You broke the first promise you made.
You said you'd make me smile and look at this.
You told me to pick Kyung Ho or singing...
and I chose singing.
And you took that song away from me.
How am I to trust you now? I can't.
Se Ra.
(Oh Jeong Hoon, Planning Director)
I told you many times before you got married.
If you give Mi Jin in a hard time...
because of a woman, I won't forgive you.
You fool.
You abandoned your child.
When you betrayed Soon Young, you left him too.
Min Su, hang in there.
Oh dear.
Soon Young.
What's wrong with him?
He was fine earlier,
but his fever suddenly spiked.
Why are you here and not at a hospital?
Min Su, you poor thing.
Oh dear...
Soon Young.
- What's wrong? - Move.
What's the matter?
I must see a doctor. Move!
Is he sick? What's wrong with Min Su?
(Through the Waves)
He has to see a doctor.
I wronged you and Min Su both.
Erase Min Su from your heart.
To a woman, a child is the best weapon.
Don't come here again.
Jeong Hoon needs a baby to make him want to come home.
Choon Ja, what just zoomed by?
You know that I love you, right?
- She didn't come home? - She didn't.
That's why I feel so tortured.
You sacrificed Bok Shil.
This place must be like torture for you.
What's wrong with you?
- We're seeing each other. - What?
If you have a conscience...
He's my son.
What right do you have?
