ONE SPRING NIGHT
-What do you feel like eating? -Something good.
-Something good? Korean food? -You have to do it.
-Korean food would be good. -Sounds good.
-Japanese food? -I like everything.
-Really? Lamb skewers too? -Go slow.
-Set a screen. -No.
-Let's go. -Go for it.
EPISODE 3
Concentrate everyone!
Has he changed?
Or did I just not know?
Your boyfriend can be pretty assertive.
In what aspect?
The way he talks
and the overall vibe he gives off. Has he always been like that?
He tries not to show it, but he does have a strong sense of pride.
Are you okay?
Don't worry. That's not your boyfriend.
-Oh, you're right. -I find him attractive.
Are you this smitten by Gi-seok after that short chat?
Not Gi-seok. I'm talking about that guy who fell.
I keep noticing him.
Isn't he attractive?
Well, I haven't gotten a good look at him.
There's no need. He just stands out.
Shall I hit on him?
I told you to behave yourself.
I haven't even done anything.
Be on your good behavior so that you don't embarrass Gi-seok.
Hey, are you all right?
-Yes, I'm fine. -My gosh, I'm sorry.
Can you play?
I have to. To win, that is.
Where should we go? What do you want to eat?
I want to eat so many things, but someone keeps hinting that I shouldn't say so.
You don't seem like the type to be intimidated.
I'll go wash up quickly. Decide what you two want to eat.
Okay.
-I'm excited. -Gi-seok.
The team wants to go for grilled pork.
-I have to-- -We'll join you guys.
-What's with you? -What?
You're more than welcome to join us.
Oh, would you not like the idea?
What are you saying?
So? Shall we join them?
They'll be uncomfortable if we come.
Go with them. We'll figure something out.
Gosh, not at all. We'd really love to have you two join us.
Hey, Ji-ho.
-Let's go eat. -What?
Sorry about earlier. Is your foot okay?
Yes, it's fine. Don't worry about it.
God, I feel so bad.
Oh, right. Hey, that thing I told you about the other day.
-What? -Remember? That thing.
-Get going first. We'll meet you there. -All right.
Then... Wait for me in the car.
-Okay. -I'll unlock the doors.
-What's this about? -Jeez.
Are you a teenage boy or what?
Don't be so sheepish.
You said you'll start dating again, didn't you?
Then you have to get used to mingling with people first.
I didn't say I wasn't going.
Hey, Ji-ho. You're acting so weird these days.
I thought Si-hun would be home too.
He's busy, you know.
Was Dad okay after we left?
Don't even get me started.
He seemed awfully angry and upset.
So I pretended I didn't notice it and left him be.
I made these braised short ribs just now, so it's still warm.
I'm not hungry now. I'll eat it later.
Do you have some kind of health problem?
No, I told you that I'm fine.
You didn't need to get this herbal medicine.
Oh, right. You should take one now.
You seemed to have no energy at all, so I--
Okay, I'll make sure I take them.
Do you want a cup of coffee?
Have a seat.
Whenever you act like this,
I feel like I shouldn't let Jeong-in and Jae-in get married.
You were never the affectionate type, but you used to tell me stuff.
Since you got married, you've changed so much.
I'll go back to how I used to be.
It's easier said than done.
About Jeong-in...
Don't let her get married.
-For the rest of her life? -Why not?
Do you also think that getting married is a must?
I've been living with your dad for the past 37 years.
I'm old fashioned like him too, you know.
I think it's better than never getting married.
Why? Did Jeong-in complain a lot to you?
No, it's just what I think.
She's not like me.
She and Dad will clash a lot.
And you'll be so stressed out stuck between the two of them.
You've had it the hardest.
You've had to put up with all sorts of things and be a model for your sisters.
You never had your way.
Even with your marriage--
Take care of Jeong-in instead.
She doesn't listen to me, you know.
She's very opinionated.
She sure is a special one.
At least one of us is outspoken.
That's true.
Can I say a few words?
Thank you all for inviting me. I had such a great time.
I know that you guys are all younger than me,
but I'll do my best as an older member.
I'll do my very best.
Thank you everyone!
-Thank you! -Welcome!
-Okay! -Let's celebrate.
Everyone, well done.
-You did a good job too. -Drink up.
I had fun playing.
Did I do well today?
I think you need a lot of practice.
Mind your own business.
Dude, I'm serious. You need special training.
-You keep... -I'm not really good at...
Why only me?
-Half an hour a day, starting tomorrow. -Half an hour?
You need to eat a lot to be strong.
Exactly, you know very well. Then why did you eat so little?
At the kindergarten?
Someone's inside.
What did you say, Eun-u?
Daddy couldn't hear you. Say it again.
Today, I can't.
I'll come see you in three days.
Okay. In two days, then.
Did I drink?
No, I didn't.
I really didn't.
I'm not lying.
I can't even have just a glass?
All right.
Why are you still here?
I just got off the phone.
Is your kid's name Eun-u?
I overheard it earlier.
I must say, you're a good liar.
You did drink.
He doesn't like it when I drink. That's why I keep...
I really hate lying.
Go in first.
If we go back in together, we'll have to lie.
Well, we just used the washroom.
All right, then. Do as you please.
-Maybe I shouldn't have come. -You're welcomed.
Eat up.
-There's more meat. -Goodbye!
Yes, I had some. Eat up.
-What are you doing here? -Oh, this guy called me.
I called this starving future civil servant so that he can have some meat.
I'm glad you called him.
-I hope it's okay that I came. -Gosh, don't worry.
Don't you worry. I just tagged along too.
-How about we toast? -Cheers.
-Cheers.
-It's nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you. Welcome.
-You plan to take the civil service exam. -That's right.
And that guy...
You mean, this guy? I told you earlier that I work with Gi-seok.
-Oh, that's right. -Oh, did you?
So, you work at a bank. You touch money for a living.
-You shouldn't drink anymore. -Why shouldn't I?
And you? What do you do?
Oh, I'm--
Quiz time. Here's a quiz for you.
What do you think his job is?
Everyone, be quiet. Don't say anything.
Take a guess.
She won't be able to guess it. I mean, how would she know?
He must have an unusual job.
-What do you think it is? -What could it be?
Jeong-in, what do you think it is?
How would I know?
Gosh.
-Can I get a hint? -A hint?
A quack.
-Something is stuck here. -Are you okay?
-A doctor, right? -It's similar.
What's similar to a doctor?
-Think about what they wear. -What?
The coat.
The coat?
What? So, you knew!
Right?
-I think I overheard it earlier. -I knew it.
Yes, I mentioned earlier that I'm a pharmacist.
-Jeez. -Hey, you ruined the fun.
No wonder she seemed sharp-witted.
You're a pharmacist.
I never would've guessed.
-Really? -Yes.
-By the way... -Go ahead.
I've been wanting to say this since earlier.
Both sisters are gorgeous.
-Totally. -You've just noticed that?
There are three girls in our family,
and I'm the prettiest one.
I think Jeong-in is the prettiest one.
Jeez, come on.
-All right. Do you guys agree? -My glass is empty.
Those of you who agree, cheers.
-I agree. Cheers. -I don't agree.
Gosh, Gi-seok.
Do we have any fruit?
By the way, why have you been doing that?
To me, this is like meditation.
Why do you even need to meditate?
Who do you think is to blame?
Stop being so overbearing toward the girls. They're all adults now.
But not real, functioning adults yet.
They're running riot because you coddle them so much.
How dare they talk back to their father?
Forget it.
I shouldn't have brought it up.
When Jae-in comes back after graduating,
I'm going to marry her off right away.
We're having a hard time even with Jeong-in.
What are you saying--
Let's give it some thought before we decide.
That's what Jeong-in wants too.
What does she even know?
Working for a few years doesn't teach you everything.
And instead of wasting time on this,
you should study how the world works.
You study all you want.
Mr. Principal, go ahead and study all you want about the world.
Hey!
Is "Hey" my name? Even dogs have names.
Jeez, what's with you today?
If you do that one more time, I won't let it slide...
You're pathetic.
What the...
"SOMEDAY"
What's going on?
-Did you two reserve the same song? -Yes, it looks like they did.
-Just sing it together, then. -Sing it together.
Sing it with her.
Excuse me for a moment.
Oh, okay.
Hello?
I should stop there.
-Why turn it off? -It was good.
Just because.
Hey.
Is something going on?
With Ji-ho? He had to leave because of a family matter.
-Is it something bad? -No, it's nothing serious.
Which song should I sing?
Why did you stop the song?
I just wanted to.
Why aren't you singing?
-Me? I was going to. -Yes.
Then while you're making your choice, let's hear from our special guest singer,
-our future civil servant. -Gosh.
He actually wanted to be a singer,
but he had to give up because of his looks.
Can he sing that well?
-He's an amazing singer. -Check out the melody, guys.
-Oh, I love this song! -Prepare to be amazed.
I'm sorry, but could you drive a little faster?
-Sure. -I apologize.
EMERGENCY ROOM
PEDIATRICS
-Oh, you're here. -How is he?
-What did the doctor say? -They think it's gastroenteritis.
They said we have to wait for the full test results.
I had no idea that he was sick.
I feel so bad that I scolded him for not eating.
It's okay.
You said getting sick is part of growing up.
Your mom shouldn't have called you.
I should know. It's about my kid.
Don't give Mom a hard time about it.
What about dinner? Have you eaten yet?
Yes.
-Go home. I can stay. -Don't worry.
What if the two of you get sick too? Just go home, please.
But you have to go to work tomorrow.
I'll deal with it.
Get going already.
Daddy's here.
Has it been two days already?
No.
I came sooner because I missed you.
Does it still hurt a lot?
When you feel pain, don't tolerate it.
You have to tell us that you're in pain.
I feel totally fine now that you're here.
I'll be right by your side at all times from now on.
I'll stay right next to you so that you never get sick again.
I promise.
Wash up quickly.
Should I send you back to Mom's?
Okay, fine.
And tidy up the table.
By the way, why are you angry?
What are you talking about?
You suddenly got all quiet at the karaoke bar and you're cranky now.
No, I'm not.
What?
You are cranky.
What's with her?
Are you in bed already?
Nothing's up. I just got out of the shower and called you.
You must be tired.
Hello.
My gosh, I rarely see you even though we work at the same broadcasting station.
I know. Everything is well with you, right?
Well, I'm making ends meet.
Come in for a minute. Your husband is here.
No, it's okay.
Give him some moral support. The news isn't until later, right?
Come on.
Your wife is here.
Pardon?
She didn't want to come in because she was shy, but I insisted.
You're like two peas in a pod. You're both so shy.
Give each other some moral support.
Hey, it's good to see you.
I hope the show goes well.
I have to do a good job. I can't embarrass you, you know.
Please take good care of her. I haven't been that attentive lately,
so she's a little mad at me.
I knew it. I wondered why she seemed sulky for a moment.
Be good to her. You'll pay dearly if you neglect a wife like her.
What can I do to be a better husband?
I'll make it up to you.
Will that work?
What time do you think we'll be done?
-Today's show is simple. -Right.
-So we'll be done early? -Yes.
-See you later, Seo-in. -See you.
Hey.
I have to talk to you about something. Wait for me at home.
What? Shall we meet somewhere outside?
It'd be better actually. Where would be good?
When I got this job,
I thought librarians just sit gracefully and read books all day long.
But look at this. Why must we go through these event posters?
Why do they all look the same to me?
That's what I'm saying.
My gosh. Hey, we haven't even finished going through these.
There's even more.
Let's stop researching blindly like this and brainstorm again for the concept.
It's our regular book review event, so even we don't find it exciting.
Should we focus on the latest trends?
Jeez, I know nothing about the latest trends.
I guess I'll have to surf the Internet all night.
How about seasons?
-I like that. -I know that winter is over,
but "snow" would've been a nice theme.
Like the first snow?
The last snow.
My gosh, that's a refreshing idea. "The last snow."
-I haven't heard that before. -Yes.
Jeong-in, I keep seeing a whole new side of you these days.
You know?
The other day, you sounded like a hopeless romantic
and today you're all sentimental.
This is how I really am. Satisfied?
Gosh, hey.
My brain isn't working because I haven't eaten anything.
Let's go eat something.
-Great idea. -I know.
-Shall we? -Yes.
-My gosh. -Let's go.
MUSIC, TRENDS, SEASONS, SNOW THE NEXT TIME IT SNOWS
EPISODE 4 WILL AIR SHORTLY
How cute!
-How old are you? -I'm five.
EPISODE 4
You're five years old?
You're so adorable.
-Have a good day. Bye. -Bye!
-Say, "Bye." -Bye.
Goodbye.
She's so cute.
What's the matter?
What? Nothing. Let's go.
There's nothing I fear more than kids.
Why?
They're so innocent and pure-hearted.
What if I hurt them?
Hey, do you ever think that?
Well, I don't know. Maybe.
-What about Eun-u? -I made sure he's asleep.
I made all this food for you because you always eat out.
Why are you eating like a bird?
I'm eating, Mom.
Is it okay that you missed work today?
I've told my co-workers.
Eun-u needs to stay here for just another day or two,
so I'll stay here with him. Okay?
Finish your food and go home.
And just focus on work starting tomorrow.
No, I can take a few days off.
Gosh, you shouldn't miss work.
It's not like you have no other option.
Why inconvenience your co-workers?
Don't do that.
Mom.
Shall I move back in?
Living far from work won't improve the situation at all.
Do you think you'll actually get to see Eun-u more in the morning and night?
Forget it.
I'm more worried about you.
You're still so young.
Being young is great. I still have many opportunities ahead.
Do you date at all?
Occasionally.
Have you met anyone that you like?
No, not yet.
Your soul mate will come find you.
-You think so? -Yes, of course.
Nothing can stop your destiny.
And she'd better come find you. Will you be single forever?
Gosh, you're obviously not even worried.
Thank you.
Even this one can't make it.
What's happening this week?
-Someone else can't make it? -Ji-ho can't come.
We might not have enough people.
He left early that day saying something came up. Is it because of that?
Yes, I think so.
What happened?
-This is top secret. -Okay.
Actually, he has a kid.
-Oh, he's married? -No.
He had a girlfriend back in college and she was quite young.
About 24 at the time?
-Ji-ho was 28 or 29 back then. -I see.
She hid the fact that she was pregnant and fell off the face of the earth.
Then she showed up after eight months.
-Out of the blue? -Yes.
They talked about getting married
and maybe doing it after she gives birth.
She lived with his family for a little while,
but she vanished again one day.
So, what happened? Did he not look for her?
When that happened, Ji-ho totally lost it.
He even took a leave of absence and went everywhere looking for her,
but he couldn't find her.
Later, he found out that she had already left the country.
My goodness.
-That's crazy. -Yes.
Jeez, it must have been so hard for him.
A lot of time has passed, so he's okay now.
But back then...
He was utterly distraught.
Oh, dear. I feel bad for him.
If I had known, I would've been nicer to him.
-Why? What do you mean? -What?
I just feel bad for him.
Don't feel bad. Who cares if he's a single dad?
He makes good money, and he's healthy.
Also, he has wonderful parents.
Everything else is fine.
How is that fine?
What woman would like that?
-Get home safely. -Bye.
MISO PHARMACY
WOORI PHARMACY
Here you go.
Thank you.
What are you doing here?
I'm just stopping by. I'll be here tomorrow.
I said it's okay. Don't kill yourself.
It's fine. I can work.
What did the doctor say? Is he okay now?
-Yes, he's fine now. -Thank goodness.
We just brewed persimmon leaf tea. Do you want some?
No, thanks. I'll be off. Take it easy.
-Get home safely. -You can come in late tomorrow morning.
Can I help you find something?
Pardon? It's okay. I'm getting this.
Here.
-Your total is 2,000 won. -Okay.
Here you go.
Thank you.
I'll wait for you at the corner.
-Here's your 8,000 won. -Thank you.
-Bye. -Bye.
Did you come here to see me?
Why would I come all the way here just to buy this?
What's up?
What's up with you?
They're closing soon, so they'll be out any minute. Let's go somewhere else.
Can't we just talk here?
If they see us together, they'll start talking about you.
My son was a little sick.
How? Is it something serious?
He'll be fine in a few days.
That's good news.
I was worried after you left so abruptly.
It seemed serious judging by how your friends kept their mouths shut.
I was going to forget about it,
but here I am.
You could've just texted.
But you rarely respond.
I did that on purpose,
and I already told you why I did that.
Well,
I've moved on,
so you don't have to worry so much.
What did you mean earlier when you said
that people will start talking about me?
I'm not the average man.
"Who is the woman next to such a man?"
"What's her story?"
"Is she a single parent too?"
People will speculate.
You could become the subject of gossip.
Is that why you turned down my offer to be friends?
You know...
that's not why I did that.
You said you moved on.
We can be friends then.
Why do you want...
to be my friend?
No reason.
I don't need your pity.
You have some sort of weird victim mentality.
You'd understand if you were in my shoes.
Are you turning me down again then?
Being friends isn't a big deal.
We can ask each other how we're doing
and meet from time to time if we want.
What would your boyfriend say?
Are you worried about me or are you scared for yourself?
This doesn't really need to be said,
but I believe that my life should be respected.
From here on out, I'd appreciate it if you didn't
assume or worry about things I don't mention.
It makes me uncomfortable.
Let's give it a shot.
Let's be friends.
Have you suddenly had a change of heart?
You're funny.
Then you just gained a funny friend.
It's your sister.
What is she doing over there?
Who is she with?
It looks like Yeong-jae.
Who?
From that day?
It is Yeong-jae.
What's so funny?
The fact that they're together.
How is that funny?
What's wrong with her?
What's wrong? They must've exchanged numbers.
Unbelievable.
Are you getting out?
How do you expect to carry this on if you think that's unbelievable?
We're friends, so who cares?
I usually choose my words wisely,
but I don't know why I spurt things out when I'm with you.
Well, that made us become friends.
You're home late.
Hey, Jae-in.
Where were you tonight?
I saw everything, so be honest.
See what?
I saw you hanging out with that future civil servant out front.
Why didn't you say hi?
Why were you with him?
We're friends. We agreed to be friends.
Someone your age shouldn't be his friend.
Age and other aspects don't matter with friendships.
It's childish of you to think so.
Jeong-in, about that pharmacist.
-What about him? -He seems decent.
Why's that?
Did someone say something?
Yeong-jae talked about his friends,
and the pharmacist seemed like the best.
Should I make a move?
Why not?
One son-in-law is a doctor and now a pharmacist can be added.
Dad will be thrilled.
Don't take it too far.
Just remember they're all connected to Gi-seok.
That's your problem, not mine.
Just think about it.
It'll be an issue for you to date
anyone from that group,
but not me.
Why are you following me out?
Go back inside and readjust the budget.
-Yes, sir. -Mr. Kwon,
is there an issue with the budget plan?
You should've read the documents before signing them
and sending them up for my approval.
Do you not care anymore because you'll be leaving soon?
No, of course not. I'd never be like that.
-What happened is that-- -It's uncanny.
The school operates in a similar fashion every year,
but the budget only increases and never decreases.
This is why they say no one can be trusted in this world.
I'm sorry, sir. I'll be more thorough next time.
You're always all talk.
"I'll be more thorough next time."
I loathe those who get by on just their empty promises.
I hear you, sir.
That reminds me.
How about we grab that lunch you mentioned last time?
I have plans with Assemblyman Jang.
He's buying to celebrate his daughter becoming a professor.
I see.
Enjoy, then.
Gi-seok, yes. It's been a while.
Of course. Why haven't you been in touch?
We should if that's what you'd like.
How about today?
Where are you meeting my dad?
Shouldn't you know what it's about before getting riled up?
It's probably about us getting married.
And that annoys you?
-That's not it. -Of course it is.
You're right. I'm pissed.
I hate being pushed into it like this.
You don't want to get married, do you?
Is it marriage you hate, or just me?
What is it?
Why aren't you answering?
Gi-seok.
I'm listening.
I think that we should respect each other more.
I don't want to get married just because
we've been dating long enough.
I'm sure that's how you feel too.
Or maybe you don't.
It's not like anything has changed between us, so I guess--
Hold on.
You're acting strange.
Something's different.
Jeong-in.
Yes?
Is there something you're not telling me?
No.
Jeong-in.
I'm sorry, but can we talk again later?
Go home after work. I'll call you on my way to you.
What about my dad?
I'll take care of that. See you later.
Yes, Father. It's Gi-seok.
I'm sorry about this,
but a meeting came up for this evening.
I'll have to take a rain check.
That's right.
-Take care. -Bye.
Don't you feel bad that his son is sick?
More so because he's a man.
Exactly.
You should go home if you're that worried.
He was discharged this morning and is playing right now.
It's a particularly slow day today.
Isn't it a good thing since it means less people are sick?
If you open a pharmacy, you'll go under in three months.
I'm taking out the trash.
How much will it cost to open one?
It depends on where the location is.
Are you considering it?
I'm thinking about moving back in with my parents.
I'm a mother myself, but some might think
that I'm not when they hear this.
After my divorce, I asked my mom to help out with the kids.
To be honest, I regret it.
The amount of help I received was enormous,
but I couldn't have a life.
She was always watching the kids and doing chores,
so I thought I shouldn't do other things and be with my kids.
I wasn't even able to comfortably grab a beer with my friends.
Once you move back home,
Yu Ji-ho will be gone.
You'll only live as a son and the father of your child.
I want to tell you to be selfish.
You have the right to live a happy life.
Where's Jae-in?
I don't know. She wasn't here when I got home.
-Can I get you anything? -I'm good.
Tell me then.
What's the issue?
I told you everything on the phone
although it wasn't much.
I'm glad you know.
When the thought of marriage suddenly...
becomes a reality,
they say...
most get cold feet...
and rethink the idea as a whole.
But your reaction is more than that.
Am I wrong?
I don't know.
What exactly do you mean by that?
You're usually smart and know what you want.
Why have you become so vague all of a sudden?
Beats me.
Something must have triggered this.
No?
Only that can explain this and help me understand.
Gi-seok,
I think we need a break.
Are you breaking up with me?
We'll end up married anyway, right?
-My family hasn't-- -If marriage was my only goal,
I wouldn't have stayed with you.
Is time the only thing you need?
Are you sure that there's nothing else going on?
I'm sure.
Fine. I'll give you space then.
Are you leaving?
You'd prefer that.
That's cruel to hear.
Get some rest and reduce some of the anxiety.
I want to go to the zoo.
It's still too cold, so there won't be many animals outside.
Dinosaurs don't get cold.
They actually do.
Let me grab that for you.
Don't. I can do it myself.
All right. I'll be right over there,
so don't push up too high. Got it?
I'll be behind you.
LEE JEONG-IN
How have things been?
Good. How have you been?
It's probably your day off. I'm actually at work today.
Can I ask what you do for a living?
Jeong-in, can you take a look at my header for the library?
We both know you did a good job.
Hey.
Weren't you and Gi-seok on a break? Are you back together?
It's not him.
Then that's more suspicious considering the smile on your face.
-Aren't you busy? -I am.
Darn.
Are we really off to see dinosaurs?
Yes, we are.
But you said that the dinosaurs were too cold to come out.
They're not at the zoo but somewhere else.
Where?
Someplace warm.
ARCHIVE RESTRICTED AREA
WERE THERE DINOSAURS THAT LIKED FLOWERS?
My gosh!
I know who you are.
You're Eun-u, right?
How do you know me?
How do I know you?
Take a guess.
Dad, who is she?
Who do you think I am?
Go ahead and guess.
Mom?
ONE SPRING NIGHT
I knew something was up.
-We agreed to be friends. -Because that's all you could be?
No physical response means
that there are no feelings left.
Think of the opposite though.
The response will be involuntary.
-Are you getting married? -Soon.
We've been dating for a while.
Ji-ho has a kid.
He met the mom at a young age,
but she left after having the baby.
He should've done better.
Would that have changed things?
Doing better or not isn't the issue here.
Feelings have changed.
Are we at a point where we need to work on our relationship?
Is there someone else?
I'm actually not sure.
I don't know what's okay and what is considered as "crossing the line."
That's why this is frustrating.
I ended it before I get crazier.
Because I know how tough things will get...
for her.
