Look at these pictures and pick the woman you want to meet.
Let me see.
You getting married? Why do you need to see them?
You never know. One of them could be my future wife.
Worry about that when you've reached a higher position in life.
How do you plan to provide for your family?
You're gonna leave me to be a team leader after I'm married?
I've decided.
Yeah? Which one?
Take a guess.
Let me look.
The one in the middle looks the prettiest. Totally my style.
I think it's the second one. She's a looker.
Jae-bum, it's not this girl, right? I've got my sights on this one.
Go on, who is it? Enough with the dramatic pause.
The girl I chose... is not here.
You trying to be funny?
None of them is to my liking.
I won't be set up on a blind date. Understand, Uncle?
- Thank you for the meal. - Hey! Hey!
Argh.
Calm yourself.
Goodness, Mi-ran, why did you drink so much?
I drank with my boyfriend.
Oh!
He also gave me a present.
Wow, that's pretty.
You should've brought him here.
I waited all day for you to introduce me to him.
What about the pictures on your laptop?
Unfortunately, those pictures have been lost.
What? Then I can't see his pictures?
When do I get to meet him?
I have no time tomorrow. And I really want to see him.
You'll meet him someday.
The wedding gifts come in tomorrow?
Yup. Don't make any plans for tomorrow, okay?
You probably know well what it's like to be loved.
What?
I'm not sure about my love.
I don't know what's going on and what I should believe.
Why are you saying that? He gave you a present.
I don't know. I'm so confused.
I don't know if he really loves me.
I did everything I could to hold onto him.
I threatened him, I fought with him.
I'd get so hopeful one day, then feel so much despair the next.
Then the following morning I'd tell myself that he loves me.
Ran.
I don't know what to do.
I love him but I don't believe him when he says he loves me.
What happened, Ran?
What do I do? I don't know what to do.
Ran.
Welcome.
Lady, is dinner ready?
Welcome, welcome.
The groom is so handsome.
Lucky Ga-eun.
What is it, Mom?
It's no big deal. They did the usual.
Wedding presents are all the same.
You should've excused yourself today.
Thanks.
Can I take this to mean you understand me?
Jung-woo. What are you doing here?
Doesn't Mi-ran's bracelet look better than the one I got for your mother?
Bracelet?
Yeah.
Mi-ran, can I see your bracelet? I'd like a closer look.
You must have a lot of interest in women's jewelry.
He's a lot more sensitive than other men.
Jung-woo, Mi-ran's boyfriend bought it for her.
That's right.
They stand for my boyfriend's feelings. I don't care to show it to you.
And regarding that question you asked, I'll think about it.
Question? What did Jung-woo ask you?
Can I tell Ga-eun?
Ga-eun, you're such a curious cat.
What is it? What did you ask?
What did you two talk about? Did you make fun of me?
Yup.
Jung-woo, what is it? Tell me.
Don't tell me it's nothing.
I asked Mi-ran something of a favor.
I asked if she's gonna live here after you're married.
I thought your family would feel lonely.
With you two both gone, the house will feel so empty.
So I asked her to stay and take care of your parents for you.
Jung-woo.
So I asked her if she was gonna move out.
Now I feel all embarrassed. I really have to tell you this stuff?
Jung-woo, you think so way ahead of me.
Thanks.
You touched by something so small?
I gotta get going. Young-gyu's waiting for me.
Where is he waiting?
A bar near the house.
Geez, it's cold. Why's it so cold this winter?
Seriously.
Are you leaving?
Yes, Father.
You did well today.
Hold on. This is a small thank you.
I couldn't find a time to give it to you earlier.
You don't have to, sir.
Just take it. It's not polite to refuse.
Go have a few drinks with your friend.
Thank you.
Ran, it is indigestion?
I think so. I don't feel so well.
Want some medicine?
It's fine. I have to go out anyway.
You have a date, huh?
Can I take this off now? Thought I was gonna suffocate.
Ran, can you take out this pin for me?
Sure.
What ring is this? Looks old.
Jung-woo's mother used to wear it, but she gave it to me.
You gonna be okay without medicine? I think we have some in the house.
I'm fine. I'll buy some if I can't stand it.
Alright, then go have fun.
You heading out?
Yes.
Thanks for everything today.
Go have fun.
Dear, you did well today. Want a massage?
You crying?
Leave me alone!
What's wrong? Are you hurt?
Dearest!
I tried not to mind, but I'm too ashamed.
They call those wedding gifts?
I could barely look the helper lady, let alone our relatives, in the face.
Geez, is that what this is about?
Don't blow it off like that. Like it's somebody else's business.
How could she send a copper ring if she didn't look down on us?
Just a gold necklace and gold ring. Not even a diamond.
She's gone too far.
This has permanently scarred my pride.
So you're crying? You cry about everything.
It wasn't just a gold ring. There was also a pearl ring.
Oh, big deal.
Know what pearls stand for? Tears, that's what.
It's like she's cursing Ga-eun to a life of tears.
I don't like a single thing about that household.
Women find the weirdest things important.
What?
Alright, I'll have a word with Jung-woo.
Or I'll have him buy you another full set.
Forget it. You'd never understand.
No one understands how insulted I am.
Goodness.
It was a big day. Just go to bed.
Dad, can I come in?
Sure.
- Time for your medication, Dad. - Right.
You must be so tired. Why haven't you gone to bed?
I'm not tired at all. I didn't do anything.
Were you looking at Sung-eun?
No. There's no point in that.
Days like these remind you of him, don't they?
I'm sorry.
Kid, why are you sorry?
Don't say that on a happy day like today.
Dad.
I'm so happy and proud of you for growing up so well.
Forget everything painful and be happy.
I wish nothing more for you.
Dad.
I know, don't cry.
I won't cry.
You're not going to work at the company anymore?
I want you to continue working.
I told you, I'm not interested in working.
Let Young-eun do that.
Not that kid. I'll support Jung-woo instead.
Come back if you ever want to work again.
I don't want to see your talent go to waste.
I'm fine, Dad. I won't go back.
I'm satisfied with Jung-woo's love.
Alright.
Sung-eun, where are you?
Hello?
It's Kim Mi-ran.
Ah, hello.
I'd like you to repay your debt today.
Sounds good. Where shall I meet you?
- You gave it to them in cash, right? - I did.
Will they be able to bring her back home?
I have to separate her from Ga-eun no matter what.
Watch her. Don't let your guard down until the wedding's done.
I will.
Cheers.
Waiter.
Thanks for coming on such short notice.
No need for that. I promised I would.
How about ordering some drinks?
I haven't held so much cash in a while. Smells great.
Guess Mi-ran can be of some use.
Baby, how about expanding our business?
- Business? - Yup.
The 'Blackmail Park Jung-woo' business. What do you think?
We know his secret. If we threaten to tell the Sun Apparel president...
Park Jung-woo will pay us regularly?
You're learning. You caught my drift right away.
Idiot. You want to go to jail or something?
Getting all carried away 'cause he paid us this once.
Don't hit me on the head.
Go clean the spare room.
We're gonna need new wallpaper if Mi-ran's gonna move in.
The problem is, will she come willingly?
- We have to make her. - What am I gonna do with you?
Excuse me, can we get two more beers?
You sure? You drank a lot.
Why? You regret that you agreed to do whatever I asked?
Of course not.
A day like this is hard to bear when sober.
There was a man I loved so much I'd follow him to hell.
But today he brought over wedding gifts for my friend.
Then that backstabbing witch managed to steal your fianc?
What are you...?
Truth is, I saw her and your fianc at the department store.
I didn't know whether I should tell you because I didn't think you knew.
I didn't want to stir up unnecessary trouble.
I'm really sorry about all this.
I see.
I totally understand how you must be feeling right now.
Don't stress over it and just forget it all.
Men are easier to find than a cup of good coffee.
Look around. You're surrounded by men.
It's that guy, right? The one who betrayed you.
Please act like you don't know. I don't want to seem pathetic.
Can you do a love shot with me?
Pretend to be my man and help out my pride.
You understand?
Sure thing.
Thank you.
Then with this I've repaid you for ruining your laptop.
Alright.
Don't hang onto your pain.
Thank you for today.
I was glad to be of help. Good night.
Goodbye. Thank you for the ride, Jae-bum.
Goodbye.
Who is that guy?
You've been waiting to ask me that?
What does it matter to you?
I asked you who he is.
You're unbelievable, you know that?
You sent wedding gifts to Ga-eun's family today.
Or did you forget already?
So that's it?
That's why you were cozying up to some random guy?
Mi-ran, don't do this.
Don't ruin yourself because of me.
Don't flatter yourself. Who says I'll ruin myself?
That guy is more impressive than you'll ever be.
He's a director at Young-eun's work.
He seems quite rich. An elevator to the penthouse.
You're not the only one who can do that.
Young-eun's work?
That's right. This is better for you.
You wanted me to back off. You should be dancing for joy.
Kim Mi-ran.
What? Want to eat your cake, too?
Jung-woo's mother used to wear it, but she gave it to me.
Where did the ring go? I'm in trouble if I lose it.
What are you looking for?
I'm missing the jade ring Jung-woo's mother gave me.
What do I do?
I'm sure I left it here.
Ran, did you see my ring?
Why ask me?
Why are you mad? I was just asking.
You weren't just asking.
We use the same room. If you ask me, you're accusing me.
I wasn't accusing you of anything.
I was just asking if you've seen it. No need to get angry.
You're always like this, I swear.
What?
Do you know how hurt I've been by the words you say carelessly?
Ran, when did I hurt you?
Stop acting like you don't know.
Or maybe you just didn't care.
Did you know that a carelessly thrown rock can kill an innocent frog?
Your rocks have hurt and killed me relentlessly.
What are you talking about?
Don't play innocent.
You don't care about me as long as you're happy.
I'm not following you at all.
What exactly did I do to you?
- This is... - My inferiority complex, is that it?
You suspected me of tearing your picture, yet you say it's an inferiority complex?
Something strange happened.
Someone tore our picture and dropped it on the floor.
What?
I jumped to conclusions based on what the helper lady told me...
Think I didn't hear about that? You always act like this.
Yet you claim you've never hurt me?
I'm sorry, Ran. I didn't...
Sorry, sorry, sorry!
Think sorry will salvage the pride you've stepped all over?
I think it's time for us to end this friendship.
Ran.
Sorry. I'm really sorry.
Forgive me, Ran.
Ran.
Isn't it amazing? Like it's alive and breathing.
What are you doing?
Why did you bring me? You should've brought Seo-jin.
I'm not interested in art.
Hey, this is real art here. Stop wasting time elsewhere.
Uncle, you want to discuss art with me?
My life is art in itself.
Stop messing around.
You're all about the physical appeal of art.
And what's with the earring?
You don't look like a serious businessman.
You're like a kid.
How can you discuss art when you're so narrow-minded?
There is only one art.
Music, the fine arts, they call connect to each other.
I don't get how you can be learned in the arts and not appreciate my music.
It's a mystery.
Stop talking nonsense and take off that earring.
Uncle.
And meet the girl I'm gonna set you up with.
Don't you dare rebel.
Why don't you get married, Uncle? Sounds like a plan.
I said no rebelling.
I can't believe this.
Jung-woo, make me smile.
My heart feels so heavy I can't focus on anything.
Okay, I'll meet you there. Bye.
Look, I want to take care of this legally.
Miss, we're begging you. Please let it slide.
We're sorry.
Just like that? Besides, I should discuss this with my lawyer.
What can we do to make it all better for you?
Mom! Mom!
That rude brat is coming to apologize.
Rude brat?
The one who beat me up.
She's coming to our house.
I threatened to sue and they immediately backed off.
Foolish girl! Why are you bringing them here?
I'm already preoccupied with your sister's wedding.
If you want an apology, meet them elsewhere.
Alright, Mom.
I have to go back to work. Where should we meet them?
I should talk to Lawyer Kim.
How can you wrap up the abalone without letting me taste it?
They won't notice if one's missing.
It's better than using our money to buy something.
We need to use this to ask for forgiveness.
Don't act up and just pretend you're sorry, alright?
Fine. This is so unfair.
As they say, 'All mighty is the dollar.'
With no money or connections, I have to take the abuse.
What do you mean no connections? Just wait a bit.
Someday we'll have connections AND money.
When Jung-woo's father-in-law passes, it'll all be Jung-woo's.
And when's that gonna be?
Where is that brat?
Ma'am?
