01x18 - Yoon Jae Gets Nervous

Post by bunniefuu »

A long day has passed

And now two people are under the moonlight

Casting one single shadow

When you close your eyes

A faint form of happiness seems to be in reach

It still remains in reach

- My wounded heart - No way.

This can't be just a coincidence.

No, it's destiny.

A goalkeeper won't keep me from scoring. My gosh.

Please remember

That someone who loves you painfully

Is right by your side

Even though

Our path seems endless

Even though heartache

Leads to tears

Until everything becomes a memory

The two of us

We will be each other's solace

I may still be clueless and lack in many ways

- But I will always - My goodness.

Be by your side

Even if harsh winds blow our way again

The two of us

Will withstand rough tides

Together

That was so cool, Mr. Lee.

What brings you here?

The male lead in my drama sings to his girlfriend.

Just like somebody.

That's right. She suddenly wanted to write that in.

It wasn't like that originally.

One second. Mi Rae.

This is my girlfriend.

Hello.

Hello.

Yes. Hello.

[It's Beautiful Now]

[Episode 18]

- Hey, Yoon Jae.
- Hey, Dad.

You're coming home early. I thought you said you'd be late.

Things turned out that way.

Have you had dinner?

Well, I need to eat now.

You seem different from this morning.

You were so confident that she liked you a lot.

Dad. Please forget about this morning.

Let's go.

[Choi Hae, 50 percent]

Get along...

I'm going to finish quickly so I can watch YouTube.

Hey. How can you think of watching YouTube...

after getting 50 percent?

Because I want to.

So pitiful...

You're going to be in so much trouble later.

No, I'm not. You are.

Seriously. You guys are so loud.

Ha Neul, where are you going?

I'm not going to study with you guys.

I'm not going to either.

Ha Neul, Ba Da, Hae. Be quiet!

Leave them be. All kids are loud.

That's because you only see them once in a while, Kyung Ae.

I think I see them more than you do.

They're always stomping around upstairs.

I asked So Ra to keep them quiet, but nothing changed.

She doesn't care what I say at all.

She must've asked the kids to be quiet, but they wouldn't listen.

She's saving up money to move into an apartment.

But money isn't the problem. They're going to be...

kicked out because of noise complaints.

So Ra has the day off today.

I guess she has an appointment.

She's even busier on her days off.

I saw Yoon Jae wasn't home either. Was he going to do something?

Did Yoon Jae's girlfriend also come say hello?

It seems Yoon Jae will be the one to get the apartment.

You're so interested in Yoon Jae.

No.

I'm very interested in your whole family.

And out of your family,

I'm most interested in you.

Why do I have to hear news about this family...

from Mother or Sung Soo?

Your feelings for me have died down.

- We're back.
- We're back.

Yoon Jae must be back.

I have to get going with the kids.

Gosh.

- Hello.
- Hello.

- Come in.
- Were you studying?

- Hello.
- Oh, hello.

Let's go home, kids.

Where is Ha Neul?

- She said she wanted to be alone.
- What?

- Ha Neul.
- Ha Neul.

Get up. Wake up.

Gosh. I knew you'd be sleeping.

Gosh. Why is she sleeping in this room?

- It's okay.
- Hello, Uncle Dentist.

You're so polite, Ha Neul.

Let's go.

There. Say bye.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

- See you later.
- Bye.

So you noticed. Yes, the enthusiasm is gone.

No way.

There's no way the enthusiasm is gone.

You dolt. You've had it your way until now.

I'm also going to do whatever I want.

I'm home.

You're home. So what? You dolt.

Why?

- Do you want another drink?
- Yes.

I'll go home after this one.

Okay.

Here you are.

That's good.

The mood is great.

What are you going to do? You were so confident.

Well, even monkeys fall from trees sometimes.

You can fail sometimes. Things can happen.

Hey. You seem very happy about this.

- Is this fun for you?
- Of course.

I can't say it's not. Sorry.

Hey. They're getting up. They must be leaving.

Hey. They're going to come over here.

I mean, if they do,

I'm going to be so cold to him.

- You got everything?
- Yes.

Let's go.

They just left.

You wait and see.

He's in the palm of my hand.

What is it? Are you waiting for a call?

No. It's nothing.

I think things aren't going well for Yoon Jae and his girlfriend.

You said she really liked you. Has she changed that quickly?

No. It's not like that.

Yoon Jae said she liked him that much?

Yes. That's what he said.

He must be delusional.

Dad.

Who would deeply like a man in his forties...

who wants to keep things casual?

Deeply? You're so vulgar.

- Hey.
- Hey. What's vulgar?

Just leave it.

You teased him first.

I just chimed in at the end.

How funny.

It's not broken.

Seriously. Does she really not like me anymore?

It was good to keep things casual then.

Is she playing around or something?

She's so mean.

What a surprise.

You called me first.

I always want to call,

but...

I feel bad calling when you're with your mother-in-law.

I'm holding back.

Mom. Are you unwell?

Did you take your medicine?

Don't worry. I took it.

Sleep well.

Yes. Sleep well.

Gosh. I'm hungry.

Why? Did Mother call?

Yes.

She says she's okay,

but I'm so worried for some reason.

I shouldn't have given up then.

You still haven't changed your mind?

Just give it up already.

I'm not ready to do that yet.

I feel like this may be my last chance to live with you.

Hey. I still have many days to live.

- Mother is right.
- What is she right about?

You acted like you were going to help resolve everything then,

but you backed off.

She was very adamant at the time.

What?

There's a scone. Did you buy it?

No. I think Jung Hoo put it there.

Nice. I'm going to eat it.

- Microwave it for 30 seconds.
- Thirty seconds...

Dad. You can't eat that.

I was saving it for later.

Gosh. You're being so petty over a scone. You're making me sad.

One of my employees baked it and gave it to me.

An employee baked scones?

It's her dream to become a patissier.

Is our company a stepping stone to becoming a patissier?

It's nice if we can be a stepping stone for her.

Everyone is home except for Mi Rae.

- Hey. No.
- Just give me a little...

Just eat some rice.

What are you doing?

Hiring a driver.

It'll take an hour.

- Done.
- It only takes an hour?

That's quick.

I'll cancel it, then.

Why do you switch speech patterns?

I'll get used to speaking casually.

At first, it felt like...

we had a teacher-student relationship.

Why would you think of a lawyer as a teacher?

I know, right?

Aren't you moving a little too fast?

How can you suddenly speak casually and call me by my name?

You switched so easily.

I grew up in a huge family.

The middle child among three boys.

To get what I wanted,

I had to fight.

Why is the room such a mess?

Don't you study?

You're a senior next year.

I'm cooling down a bit.

What rank are you? You're second?

Yes. I almost caught up.

Gosh.

I wish you studied this hard.

Why did you do that?

Mom!

Why are you calling Mom?

Keep this up, and we can't share a room.

What's the matter now?

Mom. He looks down on me because he's smart.

So what if you passed the bar exam?

Watch it.

Leave him alone.

He's a high school senior now, and he's all worked up.

I can't share a room with him.

I won't get into university if I do.

How about you share Yoon Jae's room?

Don't you think you're way too smart to room with Soo Jae?

He'll get on your nerves.

You and Yoon Jae are both adults, so you'll get on better.

Mom, I will never leave this room.

If he can't stand me and wants to room with Yoon Jae,

I won't stop him.

So, what happened?

Well...

The youngest roomed with the oldest.

And I got called a selfish brat.

I'd have let him have his own room.

I like giving in to others.

They call me selfish and whatnot,

but when something happens, they tend to rely on me.

I'm our family's troubleshooter.

I like talking about family.

I don't tell just anyone about my family.

I was surprised at first.

You were probably suffering the most,

but you were still considerate toward me.

You find it hard to complain to others,

and you always smile.

I'm like that too.

But not even my family thinks so.

I knew from the start...

that you were like that.

You did?

Yes.

Then why would you step back when I step forward?

So you'd walk further toward me.

Okay, then. Walk backward.

But keep facing me.

Okay.

Excuse me.

It's Ms. Sim.

Hello?

What are you doing?

I'm with a friend.

Are you?

Too bad, then.

I wanted to talk about Dolt,

and you're the only one I can do that with.

I'll drop by your office tomorrow.

I found a pair of earrings that'll suit you.

Bye.

I'm a friend?

Sorry.

Why would she call you this late?

She's up to something these days.

Because she's dating.

What's the guy like?

I don't know,

but I don't think he puts her at ease.

Someone said that about me not too long ago.

Is she seeing a good-for-nothing jerk?

No.

She's in the push-and-pull stage that couples go through.

No, it's not that.

I should look into her more often.

That's weird.

Is something actually wrong?

She wouldn't ignore me.

[Dolt]

Hello.

You picked up.

Of course I did.

I texted you. Didn't you read it?

I did.

Then you should've texted back. Why didn't you?

I was worried.

Were you worried?

Of course I was. You acted out of character.

Are you sick or something?

No.

But...

you can't tell Hyun Jae what we're up to.

He'll cause a fuss if he knows.

I wouldn't tell him. Why would I?

He can never find out.

He can "never" find out?

I don't want him to know either.

But why would you put it like that?

You don't want to date me for that long.

Hello?

Can't you hear me?

Is her phone broken? Hello?

I hear you.

That's your doorbell. Who'd visit you this late?

Who is it? Let's talk later.

Hey.

If you hang up like this, I have to wonder who the visitor is.

What's he doing here?

Goodness.

Why are you here?

I smell alcohol. You had a drink?

I thought of you on my way home and dropped by.

With fried chicken.

Oh, my gosh!

You're the best.

Lee Hyun Jae.

Lee Hyun Jae.

Lee Hyun Jae.

Ji Chul kept me back after closing to do some extra work.

It's okay. We have to hurry or the bakery will close.

They'll be sold out by the time we get there.

We'll have to find out. There's no need to give up too soon.

You sounded kind of cool.

It's still open.

They're famous for their chestnut bread.

Will there be any left?

I bet ten dollars that there are. What about you?

I won't bet. Gambling is bad.

Are you afraid you'll lose?

I bet ten dollars they're sold out.

But I won't take your money even if I win.

Do you like to gamble?

Don't make me look bad because of a playful bet.

[Chestnut Bread]

Do you have...

We're closed for the day.

Give me ten dollars.

You said you wouldn't take my money.

I changed my mind.

- Gosh.
- Goodness.

Are you enjoying the fruit?

The kids are running around yet again.

Tell them to stop.

Leave them be. Kids should run around at that age.

It must be nice to be as unaffected as you are.

- Goodness.
- Mother, are you all right?

What can I do about it?

They're only kids having fun.

Their mother would not be pleased...

if I told them not to run around.

Right.

That is why I'm known as the main villain of the house.

- That's right.
- Just so you know,

all the hate will only let me live longer.

- I won't let it slide today.
- Good.

Green light, red light

Dad, did you just move?

- I didn't. Get on with it.
- Hurry, will you?

Green light, red light

Green light, red...

You're it!

Kids, please...

That's enough!

- What's going on?
- It's your grandma.

- Grandma!
- Grandma!

My little puppies.

Could you please not stomp around so much?

- Got it.
- Got it.

Were we too loud? We'll be careful from now on.

Act on those words, will you?

So Ra,

I honestly didn't want to say this,

but spend some time with your kids on your day off.

The kids should spend more time with their mom...

and not their grandmother.

Yes, Mother.

I'll get going, then.

Good night, my sweeties.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Good night, kids.

- Bye.
- Bye, Mom.

We didn't play with Grandma a lot today.

We studied, didn't we?

You fell asleep in Uncle Dentist's room.

Don't.

Why did you fall asleep in your uncle's room?

Why are you only telling me off?

I can't study with them because of all their talking.

What's the matter with your mom?

I know.

And about her babysitting.

Aunt Kyung Ae is the one who babysits more often,

but we still pay your mom the regular babysitting fee.

We don't really pay that much...

considering it's for the price of three.

Read the room, will you?

I'm sorry.

What's her problem, right? Kids should be able to run around.

Cheers.

I like that we live close by. It means we can meet up for drinks.

Right.

Anyway, when will you introduce me to the guy?

What's with your sudden interest in me?

Why don't we talk about your girlfriend instead?

Who is it? When did you meet her? Is it someone I know?

All I can tell you about her is that...

she's beautiful and kind.

Are you insane?

From what I can tell,

it's someone in our lives.

It's not someone you were set up with.

If it were, I would've known.

Is it...

Young Eun?

Are you insane?

Sorry about that. I said it on purpose to provoke you.

Hae Jun.

I honestly want you to meet a decent man.

But I'm seeing your brother.

Then, is there someone around us...

that you would define as decent?

Someone you're close with, I mean.

Someone I'm close with?

No. There's absolutely no one.

This side of him reminds me of Dolt. Darn him.

Just go home, will you?

I'm going to.

I'll be around often, so behave.

You behave yourself.

Now, get lost.

Hasn't he made it home yet?

Maybe I should text him.

No, let's wait.

Hey, Mom.

Why did you come upstairs without seeing me today?

Is there trouble in your relationship already?

Being with Hyun Jae...

makes me think about myself more.

But that's a good thing.

Was that the case when you dated Dad?

Well...

I've always been one...

to constantly think about myself and my life.

Goodnight.

- What did he say?
- He wished me a good night.

Who knew that saying goodnight could be so romantic?

- Goodnight.
- Sure.

I want to tell you about my family too.

We should have dinner tomorrow.

Sure.

Next,

we'll try the Mont Blanc.

It originated in France which is where you want to study.

Why are you giving this back?

Don't make bets. Let's not do that.

I don't like betting money.

This is what I prefer.

- Hey, Dad.
- Are you at the office?

I'm nearly there. Is something up?

Isn't it about time you visited your grandparents' grave?

Right. I'm sorry, Dad. I should've kept that in mind.

Let's agree on a date.

Talk to Yoon Jae and Soo Jae and set a date.

Got it.

[Law Firm Haejun]

- Good morning, everyone.
- Morning.

Mr. Lee,

a new judge will take over the case in Suwon.

Darn it.

Did Ms. Sim come in?

[CEO Sim Hae Jun]

Come in.

How are you not hungover after drinking that much yesterday?

As if I would let that affect my work.

A b*mb was dropped on me this morning.

The judge in the Suwon case was relocated to another district.

This particular judge understood where my client was coming from.

It's not the first time something like this has happened.

Anyway, just win your case.

- You don't care, do you?
- It's your business, not mine.

- What about that dating show?
- I declined.

If I tarnish my image,

I won't be asked to consult on TV anymore.

I see you're aware of that being a possibility.

The older brother's a dolt and the younger one is annoying.

Get out. Just so you know,

I'm glad you have to adjust to a new judge on your case.

My gosh.

Come in.

Gosh.

- Hello.
- Yes, hello.

Mi Rae, have a seat. You, get out.

Get out? Fine, I'm leaving.

My briefcase.

Mi Rae, have a seat.

Sure.

Hey.

What are you going to tell your father?

About visiting the grave, I mean.

Will he be joining you?

I'll ask.

Could it upset him?

Actually, he'd be thrilled.

More than anyone, he wants me to be happy.

Right.

Dad.

Right, are you off to work?

Yes.

Why are you sitting down, then?

If the kids are free this weekend,

we'll be visiting my birth parents' graves.

I told Hyun Jae to coordinate our schedules.

I see. Good thinking.

Will you be joining us?

No.

The kids will be greeting them for the first time.

I will only make things awkward for you.

Gosh, no. That's ridiculous.

It'll be awkward for me though.

Just tell me how it went when you get back.

- Mother.
- Yes?

Mother, please try this.

What is it?

I made yakbap.

I thought you'd like it as a snack.

You didn't have to.

You hate me, don't you?

Gosh. Why would I hate you?

I know you don't. I was just confirming it.

People change, you know.

Recently, there has been a change...

in your attitude,

while I have always stayed the same.

Please enjoy this.

And why don't I drive you to the yoga studio today?

I'll greet your friends while I'm at it.

There's no need to go out of your way, you know.

Anyway, this looks good.

He introduced you to his uncle?

Your boyfriend moves fast, doesn't he?

I think it's because I showed hesitance.

You hesitated?

You told me...

not to be afraid of heartaches, especially in relationships.

Yes, that's what I said.

That's easier said than done.

I felt like my foot was constantly on the gas pedal,

so I told him I'd back away.

To that,

he said he'd close the gap every time I take a step back.

What on earth? That's so cool of him.

He's nothing like the dolt.

He then introduced me to his relative...

and told me about his family.

That's why I'm taking him to one of the restaurants our family owns.

You're doing better than me in the dating department.

I didn't hide the fact that I liked him a lot,

and he thought it was because he was a catch.

Are you still casually dating?

Haven't you asked him to make it official?

You just had to go for the jugular.

I bet it's because you're sailing smoothly.

Your boyfriend sounds like a nice man.

But I probably won't get to meet him until I become an official couple.

If things end between me and the dolt,

you'd never introduce me to him.

She must've been hurt when I asked about making things official.

Oh, no.

He's the idiot for not choosing to be with you.

I know it's hypothetical, but did you still have to say it?

Here.

This is a present for you.

A present?

You helped me through tough times.

I wanted to thank you.

My gosh. It's not like I did anything particularly helpful.

You should wear those on your date with Mr. Dolt.

They're pretty.

Do you like them?

[Lawyer Lee Hyun Jae]

I'm heading out.

Hello?

You can't just leave like that.

What else could I have done?

Why are you panting?

There you are.

What do you mean?

Mi Rae.

Someone might see us.

We'll cross that bridge when someone actually does.

Hop in.

Thanks.

I'll close the door.

Did you step outside?

Yes, briefly.

Those earrings look new.

Mi Rae gave them to me as a present.

Ms. Hyun has an eye for gifts, doesn't she?

She has a good sense of style.

Ever since I hired her as my personal shopper,

people have been saying that to me as well.

I also think you've been dressing better.

Hae Jun, what if I became one of her clients too?

Forget it.

She doesn't take on just any old person as a client.

[Dolt]

Out.

Why wouldn't she take me as a client when you're one of them?

You're being ridiculous.

I need to take this call, so get out.

Then take it.

Go ahead.

Who is it? Tell me.

Who is it? Is it that guy?

- Is it money he wants?
- Get out.

- Is he asking for money?
- Out.

- Get out this instant.
- I bet he wants to borrow money.

The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed...

That's odd.

She hasn't been answering her phone right away since yesterday.

[Sim Hae Jun]

She must've been busy.

Hello?

I see you called.

Right. I thought we could grab dinner. Do you have plans?

I don't.

That's great. Let's have dinner together later.

I will be seeing patients until late in the evening though,

so could we meet up near the clinic?

Sure thing. Got it.

Once again, he wants me to come over to him.

I guess it's the only option though...

since he's seeing patients until late in the evening.

That's easier said than done.

I felt like my foot was constantly on the gas pedal,

so I told him I'd back away.

That's it.

That actually worked.

Now that we've eaten, we should get some tea.

I'd rather go home.

I'm off to get my car. So what about you?

Would you like to head home from here?

I told him I was going home,

and that's when he started to be clingy.

I should also...

back away from him a little.

You dolt.

Can you wake up earlier...

and have breakfast with your father and grandpa?

Got it.

How is Yu Na doing?

She's doing well.

I want to call her,

but I've been holding back not to burden her.

- Mom.
- Yes?

I must like her a lot.

As if that's anything new.

Why else would you want to marry her?

Being with her...

makes me want to live a better life.

That's it. That's what love is.

Marrying someone who makes you feel that way...

is the same as winning the lottery.

Kyung Ae, I'm heading out.

He must be off to his yoga class.

Yes, Father.

Aunt Kyung Soon, when did you get here?

Just a while ago.

We're running late because of you today.

Get up, will you?

Brother, can't you see that I'm getting up?

Why are you always on my case?

You're never this demanding with your kids.

When will you start acting your age?

Her vibrant demeanour makes her seem younger.

Goodness. You're the best!

No one respects me as much as you do.

I do as well.

Yes. Yoon Jae, you too.

It's Soo Jae.

Sorry about that. There are too many names to remember.

We should get going.

- And we will! Gosh.
- Unbelievable.

Kyung Chul, wait for me.

Must you walk that fast?

There's no need to go out of your way to greet them.

But I should.

I should've done it a while ago.

I bet they're already here.

The older brother is just as impatient as I am.

He's always the first to arrive.

Come on.

They're not here yet.

What bad luck.

Kyung Soon has to meet you though.

I'll wait until they get here.

There's not a lot of time left before class starts.

They're normally early. They must not be coming today.

Just go.

I see. Okay.

Oh, my. You're early, Jung Ja.

Why are you so late? Did something happen?

Nothing happened. She was just slow to get ready.

Why are you telling on me, Kyung Chul?

This is my daughter-in-law.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Right. The professor's daughter.

Here. I made this.

It's yakbap. Please eat it together.

She made this because I said I had no appetite.

Gosh, Jung Ja. I'm so jealous.

For some reason, you look familiar. Right, Kyung Chul?

What are you saying?

You always act overly friendly to people you've just met.

When did I act overly friendly? Gosh, you're just...

Did you forget about being friendly to me when we first met?

- That's how you two became close.
- Gosh. Be quiet.

- We have to get to our lesson.
- Yes. Let's go.

It was nice to meet you.

- Thank you.
- Well, then.

Oh, Kyung Chul. Hold on. Wait for me.

But really. I've seen you before somewhere.

- Anyway, thanks. See you around.
- You too.

- Okay. I'll be going, then. Bye.
- Okay.

- Hello.
- Hi.

How did the day go?

We were very busy all morning.

Right. Let's have a quick chat.

Is something wrong?

Yes.

Your scone didn't taste good, Yu Na.

I can't accept that unless you explain why it wasn't good.

Just saying it didn't taste good. I don't think that's right.

I put my heart into it.

You lied. You said you'd gladly accept any criticism.

People usually don't give detailed feedback on how something tastes.

They just say whether it tastes good or not.

That's also true.

You're fast to admit you were wrong.

That's how you improve quickly.

This is butter used in European royal kitchens.

Why are you giving this to me...

It hurts my ego to know that my employee makes bad scones.

As General Manager, I want to support my employee's growth.

I don't think it should hurt your ego.

You and my scones are completely separate things.

So you're not going to accept it?

I'm going to accept it. It would be rude not to.

Thank you.

Hey, Soo Jae.

Hey.

When will you pay me the remaining balance?

I will soon.

But first, how many members do you have?

Once you pay me, I'll connect you with trainers and everything.

Okay. I like keeping things clean.

You're so reliable, my friend.

[Director Lee Yoon Jae]

Yes.

- Dr. Lee.
- Yes.

If you're going home, do you want a ride?

It's okay. I have an appointment.

Does the person you're dating...

know that you're only dating her to get the apartment?

I'm not dating her for the apartment.

I hear your parents are going to give the apartment...

to whoever gets married first.

Isn't that why you wanted to get married?

No, it's not that.

Dr. Lee. You can be honest with me.

I won't tell her.

I don't even know her.

I'll be going, then.

Why doesn't she listen? I told her it wasn't like that.

- One sundaeguk, please.
- Yes.

Why aren't you eating?

I have to step back.

Eat first.

By the way, you're eating so well.

Right. It's spicy and chewy.

Also,

when paired with soju,

it's so addictive.

I won't drink.

I have to go to the courthouse tomorrow morning.

In that case, I'll drink for both of us.

Look at his smile. How could I not fall for him?

Seeing him makes me weak.

Here.

Why are his arms so long when he has such narrow shoulders?

To make my heart flutter.

Can I ask you something?

Have you really lost interest in me?

Do you want me to?

People say things they don't mean...

when they're angry. I understand.

This crazy dolt.

It's okay. Just answer here. Is it a secret call or something?

Why would it be?

- Yes.
- Ms. Sim.

Can you save me? Please. I beg of you.

The producer keeps telling me to make sure I get you on the show.

I have to make this show...

about professional couples in their forties a success.

- Sorry.
- You can't just say sorry.

Hello.

I can't hear you well because I'm in the elevator.

I'll come by the law firm tomorrow. I'm going to hang up now.

Ms. Sun! Oh, no.

Ms. Sun? She's the writer for "Couple-Making".

I think I know Ms. Sun.

Isn't she the writer for "Couple-Making?"

Yes. She is.

I almost joined "Couple-Making" before.

Because of an anonymous tip.

They wanted to cast me.

Why didn't you decline more firmly?

What?

You should've said you won't do it. Why did you just say you were sorry?

You're dating me right now.

It's not like we're official.

Why do we need to call it official or unofficial?

It's not good to be so strict about these things.

You know what? You always act like you know better.

It's always your way.

For example, our food choices.

We always go to places you like, transport cafés, gimbap restaurants,

Chinese restaurants, and now sundae stir fry.

Did I not say that I wanted to go to a romantic restaurant?

You did. Then you can make a reservation and invite me.

Are you really that passive?

Passive?

Who confessed first? Who asked to go to dinner first?

Who calls first? You dolt.

Dolt? Did you just call me a dolt?

Yes. I called you a dolt.

You're a dolt, aren't you? You dolt.

Dolt...

Darn it, Hyun Jae.

Why is he...

telling everyone my nickname from elementary school?

He's so unhelpful.

You said you'd tell me about your family. Why are we here?

Why else?

I brought you here to tell you exactly that.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Goodbye.

I'll be going now.

Please close up and make sure everything is clean.

Okay. Goodbye.

What?

- Hi, Brother.
- What are you doing here?

I came here to eat with my boyfriend.

This is my younger brother.

I see. I'm Lee Hyun Jae.

I'm Hyun Jung Hoo.

Seriously? Look at this punk.

Take us to our seats.

Don't you have eyes? Just grab an empty table.

- Should we sit over here, Mi Rae?
- Okay.

"Okay."

You speak so calmly.

Be your normal self.

Why are you doing this to me?

He's not doing it to you.

He's doing it to me.

When men first meet,

it's healthy to have a slight power struggle.

You know your stuff.

Mr. Hyun, shall I take your order?

Yes.

This is my older sister.

Hello.

What would you like?

What sells best these days?

Everything sells well.

If you want a recommendation, I can help with that.

Yes, please.

How about that menu if you want a light dinner?

What about you, Hyun Jae?

I'll have that too.

And a pork cutlet gimbap.

Two cold buckwheat noodles and a pork cutlet gimbap, right?

- Yes.
- Thank you.

I'll be going, then.

I had plans and was about to leave.

Okay.

You don't have plans. You're just going home.

I have a blind date.

Mom is in a really good mood.

Because you went to her yoga class and made her...

look good around her friends.

What were they like?

A typical brother and sister.

They're cheerful and bright.

And they squabble.

It's nice to have a sibling to grow old with.

You have me.

Stop it. A spouse is different from a sibling.

Varied relationships help you live a varied life.

There are siblings like my brother and me.

We're better off without each other.

I hope Mi Rae and Jung Hoo rely on each other as they grow old.

That's only possible if they both marry well.

But who they marry is out of my control.

I'm worried.

I said I'd drive you home.

I'll take a taxi.

Go on inside.

Call a taxi.

I'll wait with you until it arrives.

You're tired, aren't you?

I have tomorrow off, so it's fine.

Then can we walk a bit?

We can.

He's the same age as my brother, but he's mature.

Is it because of his job title?

He's not at all mature.

You said you like to give in,

but I guess not to your brother.

But he...

He takes from me before I have a chance to give in.

That's what younger brothers are like.

I'd love to meet...

your brothers.

You will.

Yu Na.

Hey.

Are you tired?

Yes, a bit.

You don't have to come get me every day.

You must be tired too.

I had today off.

I'll take your bag.

No. I prefer to carry my own bag.

You're too independent.

It's self-esteem. I fend for myself.

What did you do today?

I worked out at the gym I'm going to take over.

Did you pay the rest of the balance?

Let's not talk about money. I'll take care of that.

Do what you will.

My mom says she can't call you in case you feel pressured.

I called her earlier today...

and said I'd visit.

I don't work tomorrow.

Then let's tour some bakeries after your visit.

For Mont Blanc bread.

That suddenly cheers me up.

You bread lover.

Don't.

You...

He hasn't called once. What a dolt.

[Dolt]

Just when I was talking about him.

You know what they say of such people.

What?

I did a lot of thinking last night.

It's good to know that you actually think.

That's harsh.

What are you doing this evening?

If there's a misunderstanding, we should talk it out.

I'll book a table at a place I think you'll like.

I'm all for talking things out.

The last time I called,

you said I could get an extra loan if I find work...

and submit a payslip and proof of employment.

Yes.

Can I send you the documents, then?

Can I email a scanned copy?

Soo Jae, Yu Na is here!

Okay, thank you.

I'm coming!

What's all this?

I made some scones. Have them with strawberry jam.

You're so talented.

Sorry for upsetting you.

Why should you apologize? It's all Soo Jae's fault.

If he doesn't treat you right,

come and talk to me and I'll scold him for you.

Thank you.

Marriage is tough, even if you're convinced it's right.

When you're unsure,

it's okay to pause and take a break.

Okay.

Are Soo Jae's grandfather and father not home?

They went hiking.

They'll have a few drinks too.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Yoon Jae, have one. Yu Na made them.

Have you tried her cookies?

No.

I'll make you some later.

Okay. Thank you.

Hey. Is that all you have to say?

He's so shy and timid.

- Hey.
- Hi.

Let's have something to eat.

What do you want, Yu Na?

We're going out.

To check out some bakeries in Gangnam.

Go, then. I won't stop you.

Mother, I'll stay if you want me to.

Then I'll stop you.

I want to hang out with Yu Na. You go on your own.

Hello, Ms. Kim.

Mr. Lee. I'd like to interview you about a few things.

You're always so busy,

so I called in case you were more free on weekends.

If it's not urgent, can you email me the questions?

I called because it is urgent.

You left without saying goodbye at the live music café last time,

and that hurt.

Where shall we meet?

Look at all these layers.

This is really hard to make.

All breads look alike,

but they aren't, are they?

They're not.

Small differences aren't small at all.

That's what makes baking so hard.

I don't know about that. I just want it to taste good.

This is so moist.

It's crunchy on the outside but so soft on the inside.

Totally.

Of all the places I went to, I'm sure you'll like it here.

Let's see if I like it.

Butter scones, Mont Blanc bread, garlic baguette.

We visited three bakeries today.

Aren't you tired at all?

I could've gone to more places if we had the time.

You're a good person.

You're a good person too.

I like you more and more.

I like you more and more too.

I think I'm not good enough for you.

This is nice and it won't hurt my weight.

How did you know to pick a place like this?

I'm not all that clueless, you know.

Yoon Jae?

Give me a second.

Gosh, you're here too. Is it okay for me to sit down?

Yes, of course.

What brings you two here?

One might think that you're actually dating.

Not me though, since I know you guys.

I see. So what brings you here?

It's where I regularly eat. Didn't Yoon Jae tell you?

Tell you what?

It's where Yoon Jae and I had our blind date.

He booked the place after hearing I was a vegetarian.

That's how considerate he is.

That wasn't considerate at all.

I looked it up online.

Yoon Jae, the fact that we met today must mean we're meant to be.

I never called since I didn't want to bother you,

but I will from now on.

By the way, Ms. Sim. I wish you well.

One should live a life that does not involve lawyers,

so I hope we never meet again.

I'll be in touch, Yoon Jae.

I should definitely quote that.

Out of everything she said, it stood out to me the most.

"I hope we never meet again."

- But...
- Stop following me.

You can't leave like this.

What do you mean? Didn't you hear me?

I said we should never meet again.

Pathetic, isn't it?

Here I am casually dating at 42.

Move.

Are you really done with me?

Of course. Why would I lie about it?

- But I can't do that.
- Can't do what?

Not see you again.

What do you mean by that?

Can you please keep quiet?

You tell me. Should I stop?

No...

[It's Beautiful Now]

- Let's go.
- To my place?

- Yes.
- Don't you feel lighter?

Hello?

What you told me about Dr. Lee.

You weren't mistaken, were you?

There seems to have been a misunderstanding.

It'll be mortifying!

Come clean as soon as you can.

That way, the damage will be minimal.

I have to stay back and finish up my work.

- Could you help me?
- Sorry?

Are you putting up a wall between us?

It's like you're telling me not to fall for you.

After you, boyfriend.

Boyfriend?

I should tell you about my family history.

My father was adopted.

I hope your daughter knows that you didn't abandon her.

She hates me when she hasn't even met me?

Things between us seem the same,

but things must've changed for my mom.

That's enough.
