01x31 - Soo Jung Confesses

[bunniefuu]

You tell us.

Am I out of my mind?

There's no need to answer her. Let's go to our room.

Until when will you hide behind my brother...

and control him as if he's your puppet?

You may have Mom and him wrapped around your finger,

but not me.

What's so hard about denying my claims?

Actually, nothing about this is hard.

Yes, you're right.

Honey!

I'm not my parents' biological daughter.

Is this true?

Mother, I'm sorry.

Why would you answer her now?

You knew?

So you and Soo Jung were in on it together?

I suggested it.

Soo Jung didn't want to lie,

but Mom was happy with her being from a distinguished family...

that I chose to hide the truth.

You brat!

How dare you!

How could you do this to me?

How could you?

Mom, are you all right?

- Mom!
- Mom?

- Mom...
- Call an ambulance!

- My gosh.
- Mom.

Unbelievable.

Mom?

[It's Beautiful Now]

Mom, are you all right?

Mom?

[Episode 31]

Take deep breaths and collect yourself.

Shut it, will you?

Are you sure you don't need to see a doctor?

Why would I choose to embarrass myself?

The last thing I want is for the whole neighborhood to know.

- Unbelievable.
- My gosh.

How could this be?

Why are you just standing there?

Are you happy now?

Was it fun to stab my mom in the back...

as well as me?

How many faces do you have anyway?

One that's kind, one that's sweet, and one that's generous...

You're pathetic.

What?

Why did you record your conversation with my mom...

when you could've just asked me?

How dare you bother a sick woman?

It's disrespectful, to say the least.

You could've exposed me some other way!

I thought we were friends.

Did you have to go this far?

That's right. It had to be this way.

The truth had to come out.

That's how you repay the people you duped.

My mom adored you, you know.

I never voiced a single complaint ever since you took care of my mom.

Don't try to sugarcoat it.

Your mom's assets was why you exposed me.

It was all you were after.

That's all you care about!

Jin Ju!

You brat, what was that?

Honey.

Honey, are you all right?

What are you doing?

Is your mother all right? Shouldn't she see a doctor?

She doesn't need to.

I'll stay with my mom at the hospital for the time being.

But it'll be uncomfortable there.

I'll be all right.

Your mother would be more uncomfortable seeing me around.

Then, let me at least drive you there.

No, I'd rather go alone.

The kids are here and so is your mother.

This is where you're needed.

I'm home.

Mom, are you going somewhere?

Yes, the hospital.

Here. Let me.

I'll at least walk you to your car.

Auntie, did something happen while I was out?

You should ask your parents.

Your grandmother's not feeling good right now.

It makes me uncomfortable,

so I can only imagine how upset you must be.

This is why people can't hide their origin.

Since you were raised in a distinguished family...

Mother, that's not it.

There are plenty of bad people with good family backgrounds.

It's not right to talk him down like that.

How could she play dumb like that?

What now? Were you just about to mention his roots?

Please don't.

I like you so much.

Thank you. I like you too.

Gosh...

That liar!

That darn liar...

I can't believe this.

Now you are upset?

Did it finally hit you?

Yes. How could she do this to me?

My point. How could she do this?

Tell Soo Jung to come right away.

She went out.

Jin Heon just escorted her out to her car...

as if she was a newborn baby.

That darn brat. Where did she go?

She went to her mom.

She just left without telling me...

after dropping a b*mb like that?

How could she...

She's finally showing her true colors.

Don't you think so?

She enticed my naive brother with fair words...

to have gotten her way this whole time.

Mom, do you still want to give her your building?

Hey, I said I would give it to her when I died, not now.

Will you stop talking about the building?

What...

Mom, are you all right?

Yes. I'm fine, you punk.

You silly brat! You fool...

You darn...

You fool! You darn punk.

Hey.

Why aren't you stopping me?

Go ahead and hit me until you feel better.

That's always the way with him. Gosh, Mom.

Soo Jung didn't do anything wrong.

Actually, I feel bad for her.

Like she said before,

I should've told you before I got married.

But you really liked...

that she was a professor's daughter...

and went to a prestigious school. You bragged about her a lot.

So I just decided not to tell you, believing it was for your sake.

Whenever you talked about...

her roots and her family background,

she was hurt. But I looked the other way.

I just bought her some bags and clothes.

I guess that's how her wound festered.

It's all my fault.

You crazy idiot.

Are you trying to defend her now?

Mom, do you not know Soo Jung?

Do you have any idea how much she's suffered?

My goodness.

Mom.

Mom.

- Seriously...
- You crazy...

It's all right, Mom.

I'm home.

Jung Hoo.

What?

I think something's going on.

Where is this coming from all of a sudden?

- Dad.
- Hey.

I have something to tell you guys.

Where's Mom?

She went to the hospital to see Grandma.

Did Mom and Aunt have a fight?

I don't even know where to start.

I guess your mom will talk to you later.

About what?

Your grandma isn't your mom's birth mother.

She adopted your mom when she was three...

and raised her as her own daughter.

What?

Are you saying Mom was adopted?

By Grandpa and Grandma?

Yes.

I've long known that since before we got married.

Your mom wanted to tell my family that she had been adopted...

before we got married.

But I was against the idea.

And your grandma agreed with me. That's why we've kept it a secret.

Why are you telling us all that now?

Grandma Jung Ja found out.

Hello.

You said you'd sleep at your place tonight.

I'll look after her. You can go now.

Okay.

- Thank you.
- Bye.

Hyun Jae and I are so different from each other.

What kind of man cooks great side dishes like these?

But I prefer your mom's cooking.

I really liked the galbi I had at your place.

It's totally different from restaurant food.

Really? I'll bring some side dishes that my mom made next time.

By the way, once we get married,

who will cook all the side dishes?

There's nothing to worry about. We have Hyun Jae and Mom.

We can't ask them to cook for us every time.

We can do other stuff to make up for them.

I guess you're right. We will do stuff for them instead.

Oh, right.

Didn't your brother say that he'd like to meet my family?

When does your family want to meet mine?

I told my dad about it before,

but I'll ask him again.

By the way,

are you going home tonight?

Why?

Why are you calling at this hour instead of coming home?

Mom, I'll stay at Hyun Jae's place tonight.

Okay.

- Is it done?
- Yes.

There's no way you are staying at Hyun Jae's.

Is Yoon Jae sleeping out tonight?

Yes.

He always says he's staying at Hyun Jae's, but that's a lie.

We should meet with Hae Jun's family.

What are you talking about?

I don't want to. I don't even like her.

But that doesn't mean you can stop them from getting married.

I know I can't. I won't just attend their wedding.

- Honey.
- I'm not so fond of her.

She knows she didn't give a good first impression,

and she hasn't said anything about it.

She probably thinks she's fine as long as Yoon Jae is with her.

I don't think that's the case.

I believe it is. You know what Yoon Jae is like.

He doesn't care about me at all. He just sides with her all the time.

That's why she doesn't take me seriously.

I think you're going too far.

Yoon Jae makes me feel that way.

He always takes Hae Jun's side.

What about Hyun Jae?

Does he want to marry his girlfriend?

You saw him. He's so into her.

Why wouldn't he marry her when he's so much in love?

What do her parents do?

Apparently, her father is the CEO of Bong Food.

Isn't Bong Food the company Yu Na works at?

Yes, it is.

How did such rich people end up...

having their daughter fall for a marriage fraud?

We had no idea we'd fall for Soo Jae's lie.

There's not much you can do when someone's determined to deceive you.

I get upset when I think of Yu Na.

I should stop thinking about her.

What do we do with Soo Jae?

Can he even manage to make a living?

I'll just leave him be for the time being.

I'm home.

No. We can't just leave him like that.

He turned out like this because we didn't care enough for him.

Soo Jae.

Where were you all day?

What work do you do now?

You come home much later than you used to.

I'm doing anything for money.

Like what?

I work at a distribution center,

and I clean too.

Cleaning part-time isn't as bad as I thought.

I make quite a lot.

You clean? Where?

Anywhere that needs cleaning.

Like buildings.

And houses before people move in?

Yes.

You can't do that for the rest of your life.

What about the civil service exam?

I won't take it.

That wasn't right for me.

I only tried because it's a stable job.

Then learn a skill or technique.

I'll think about it.

You turn 30 soon.

So far, I let you do as you wished...

because I trusted you'd do well.

Now I don't think I can do that.

What skill do you want me to learn?

That's for you to look into.

I won't ask you to trust me because I know I let you down.

Talk to your mom.

I don't know what happened the first time she met Ms. Sim,

but she complains whenever Ms. Sim comes up.

I don't know how things will go with you and Mi Rae,

but wouldn't it help to move things in a favorable direction?

Okay. What did you think of Mi Rae?

I like her if you like her.

Because I don't want to go against you.

Why would we go against each other?

You don't like it...

when someone else gets involved once you've made the call, right?

That means you do as you see fit.

Who is it?

Hyun Jae.

Put Mom on.

He wants to talk to you.

- Why?
- What are you doing tomorrow, Mom?

What else? I'm always at home.

Come over. I'll buy you lunch.

Why would you buy me lunch?

I suddenly want to see you.

Oh, my goodness.

Okay, then.

He'll buy you lunch?

Yes.

Are you pleased?

I can't be bothered, but I'll go.

He'll get upset if I refuse his invitation.

Oh, is that so? Good for you.

You. Go back to Australia tomorrow.

What?

You hit Soo Jung, didn't you?

What visitor bites the hostess?

Did I bite her? I'm not a dog.

You're crazy about your wife so you turn against family?

I'm your little sister.

If you colluded with Soo Jung to dupe us,

shouldn't you first apologize?

Why should I apologize?

What did we do to have to apologize?

You conned us.

If this isn't conning, what is?

Why did Mom like Soo Jung?

Because her parents were professors.

She liked that Soo Jung upped our social standing.

She liked Soo Jung so much,

she gave you more of Dad's assets.

Cough up what you took.

You conned it out of us.

Jin Ju. How dare you talk like that?

Did you try to sweet-talk Mom and Dad...

to get more than you deserved?

You said Soo Jung wanted to tell, but you didn't let her.

Why you...

What's going on?

Get on a flight tomorrow.

A flight where?

I can't stand seeing her in our home!

You're not in the right, so don't you take it out on her.

That's what I'm saying.

You conned the family into letting you marry. Keep quiet.

She hit Soo Jung.

- What?
- I didn't hit her.

I got annoyed and slapped her once.

You hit her?

Leave before my kids find out.

- Wait.
- Oh, please.

My goodness.

See? That's how shameless he is.

What right does he have to complain?

Let's be honest. Did he buy this house?

He inherited it from you and Dad.

That's enough.

You're a mess.

Father.

Yes?

Are you ready for bed?

Yes.

I'm thinking of arranging to meet Ms. Sim's family.

Is Kyung Ae up for it?

I doubt our opinion counts for much.

The kids don't take our opposition seriously.

We'll only get blamed for ruining something good.

Yoon Jae's going to move in with Ms. Sim.

That means we have no right to object.

He'll move in with her?

Isn't that a demeaning start for a man?

These days aren't like our times.

They do whatever works for them.

Yoon Jae has a good job.

When will you meet her family?

When are you free?

I'm just the one who tags along.

I'll talk to Yoon Jae and set a date.

Okay.

Hi, Hyun Jae.

What are you doing? Did you have dinner?

Not yet.

Why not?

Are you not at home?

I'm in a car.

My brother's driving.

We're headed to the hospital.

Are you? Let's hang up, then.

Shall we have dinner tomorrow?

Well...

I don't think I can.

Is something wrong?

No. I'll call you tomorrow.

I think something's wrong.

So...

What should we say to Mom?

I don't know.

What should we say?

I feel so bad for her.

I don't think I can say anything.

Did you have to go this far?

That's right. It had to be this way.

The truth had to come out.

That's how you repay the people you duped.

Hey. My little girl's here.

- Do you want some water?
- No.

Is it morning?

No, it's still night.

Why are you here, then?

You said you'd come in the morning.

Stuff happened.

You are so sweet.

When will Jin Heon come?

When he heard you weren't my biological daughter,

what did he say?

Are you talking about the past?

Your in-laws. If they know you were adopted,

they won't like it.

Why do you want to tell them?

We should've told them then.

Why didn't you, Mom?

Why did you hide it?

I wasn't ashamed I was adopted.

You hid the fact that you hadn't given birth to me,

so I thought I had to hide my true identity.

Why are you yelling at me?

Why are you so angry?

I'm sorry.

You wench.

You wench.

I'm a wench.

I...

wronged you.

I hated it when people said I couldn't have children.

I would've done anything if it meant...

I could have a child.

I used you.

Mom.

I took advantage of you.

Mom, please. Stop it.

Why are you yelling at me? Are you belittling me?

Is it because I'm sick?

Mom, please stop this.

Mom.

Why are you here?

Who are you?

Soo Jung's angry.

And I'm scared.

Soo Jung, don't be like that to your mom.

Grandma.

Are you all right?

I used her.

I need to quickly head back inside.

Dad told us about your family.

I'm sorry.

I should've paid more attention to what had been going on in your life.

I don't even know where to begin.

Your grandparents showered me with love.

I had a happy childhood.

But...

I did hold resentment toward my parents...

who told people I was theirs...

while hiding the fact that I was adopted.

When your father and I decided to get married,

I wanted...

to finally break free from the lie...

and live a life as an adopted child.

I...

have never been embarrassed about having been adopted.

But your dad and Grandma Mi Young...

said I shouldn't.

Since nothing would change by revealing it.

I should've come out with the truth.

I had believed that marrying your father...

and raising you two...

would solve my issues.

But it didn't.

All this time, it was smooth sailing for me.

But then, your marriage happened.

That...

terrified me.

My life had been too normal so far.

I got the feeling...

that a storm was headed...

my way.

Hyun Jae's father being adopted...

brought back the memories I had been trying to suppress.

It wasn't Hyun Jae's father that I was upset with.

I'm sorry.

You should go home now.

When will you be back?

I'm going to stay here for the time being.

Your grandmother must need the space.

Why would she though?

It's not like this makes you a different person.

I don't want to go home...

without you there.

Head on home.

Mom.

What is it?

Can I give you a hug?

You don't need permission to hug your own parent.

Hyun Jae!

Gosh, Ms. Sim.

Did the side dishes suit your palate?

You should try harder...

if you want to keep up with your mother.

Should you be evaluating the food that you got for free?

Sorry about that.

Aren't you glad to know that I like your mom's food?

I try my best,

but some dishes just won't taste like hers.

Anyway, I should tell her when we meet up for lunch later.

You're having lunch with your mom?

- Yes.
- Let me join you.

You can't. I have something to say to her.

Then go ahead. You won't even notice me.

- You can't.
- Take me with you.

- I said, no.
- I'm coming no matter what.

- Is it done?
- Yes.

I'll deliver it to her. You should head to work.

What about your breakfast?

I'll grab myself a sandwich. What about you?

I can get myself a roll of gimbap.

I wonder how Dad is.

Come in.

The receiver cannot be reached.

Dad, I'm heading out.

Your mom isn't answering her phone.

Isn't this when the doctor makes his rounds?

I'm headed to the hospital, so I'll tell her to call you.

Right.

My gosh.

I want a glass of water.

Soo Jung.

Wait a second.

Jin Heon!

Gosh.

Mom, can you keep it down?

It's time you got up.

Grandma, I'm off to work.

You're heading out early today.

Yes, I'm a little busy.

Jin Heon.

Is no one home?

Jin Heon?

Are you heading out?

Yes, I need to drop by the factory today.

- What about breakfast?
- I'll buy myself something.

- What about me?
- Jin Ju's here,

so have it with her.

Unbelievable. Is that all you have to say?

What do you mean?

Don't you have anything to say to me about Soo Jung?

I said I was sorry.

And that makes it okay?

You should get down on your knees and beg for my forgiveness.

Mom, please calm down and be angry at me instead.

Soo Jung did nothing wrong.

Can't she think for herself?

Does she only do as she's told?

Her mother's sick which is enough to drain her energy.

Leave her be for the time being!

Unbelievable.

She wasn't like this before,

but she gets fixated on a single word these days.

Could it be bad?

Not particularly.

She might continue to mention the past events in her life.

Especially those that entail sad memories.

I see.

I'm concerned about her not eating enough.

She's on pain medication as well as nutrients,

so you don't have to worry too much.

- Thank you, doctor.
- Right.

Sad memories?

- You're here.
- Hey, Mom.

Jung Hoo made you soup.

I'm not much of a cook, so I let him do it.

Let me see.

Gosh, it's still warm.

[Hanguk University Hospital]

Mom.

I couldn't sleep at all last night.

Why not?

I've been childish, haven't I?

I should've considered your feelings more.

You surprised me by calling me out...

on my insecurity.

My life began its second chapter when I had you.

It was a delight.

More so because you were a girl.

Then you started to walk and run which absolutely fascinated me.

I took you everywhere I went.

Yes, you always took me out with you.

I was proud of you.

I did nothing for you to be proud of.

I was proud to have you in my life.

I hoped to be a considerate person...

but failed to be that way for you.

I love you and care about you,

but I wasn't there for you...

during your sufferings.

That's only because I keep my feelings to myself.

It's not your fault.

Tell me everything from now on.

You can count on me to be your friend.

Ma'am, please prepare my meal.

Sorry?

Didn't you hear me?

All I do is clean around here.

The housekeeper only cleans the place?

Yes, she comes by three times a week.

What about your meals? Did Soo Jung cook every day?

Yes.

Gosh, talk about living a hard life.

Why didn't she hire a chef for the family?

What am I going to have?

Must I get water on my hands when I'm at my mother's?

Mom, let's eat out today. Come on.

How could we possibly go out when things are a mess?

What's stopping us?

At times like this, we should get some fresh air...

and clear our heads.

There's no point in staying indoors. Let's go.

Come on.

Let's go.

[Letter of Resignation]

Handing this in as soon as possible is the right thing to do.

That way, they can find my replacement.

- Good morning, Mr. Hyun.
- Good morning.

Can I order a roll of gimbap?

Haven't you eaten?

I'm afraid not.

It won't take long.

Come in.

Are you done with your meal?

Yes.

Is there something you want to say?

Please have a seat.

Thank you for everything.

I won't forget the kindness and hospitality you showed me.

Then,

please take this back.

Sorry?

You can't resign this soon.

Are you done with Bong Food...

now that you're a certified patissier?

That's not it.

I'll have this processed as soon as possible.

Mr. Hyun, were you teasing me just now?

Not exactly.

My family is having a tough time right now,

and I thought that talking to you would lift up my spirits.

Isn't this going to be your last day here?

Of course not.

I'll come to work until you find a replacement.

You passed the pastry chef exam...

and will now go on to find your dream job.

I should support you in every way I can.

Thank you for saying so.

Let me express my gratitude over dinner.

You already promised me a meal.

Then I'll treat you to another.

I'm grateful.

Your grandmother's in the hospital, right?

Did her condition worsen?

It did, but that's not the only b*mb that went off.

Another b*mb dropped?

Yes.

Your replacement will be my job to find.

Just let me know how long you can keep working here.

I'll work with that.

Hold on. Are you done already?

Yes.

But look at what's on the wall.

Wipe the surfaces well and do a thorough job.

Sure thing.

Soo Jae.

Yes?

We should talk once you're done.

Sure thing.

Do you have a driver's license?

Yes.

Did you complete your military service?

Yes, where is this headed?

How about we do a job together?

But we're already colleagues.

I mean, actual work. What do you say?

I only care about one thing when it comes to the work I do.

The paycheck.

House cleaning for residential owners...

is paid by the day,

but it could lead to regular jobs cleaning buildings and offices.

I don't know what you consider a lot of money,

but the salary won't be small.

When will you meet Yoon Jae's fiancee's family?

Shouldn't I be present as well?

My gosh. Why would you be there?

It's only for immediate family.

You know, you have a weird way...

of speaking the truth in the most annoying way.

You're right about that, Aunt Kyung Soon.

Yoon Jae will probably get back to us with a date.

Didn't he come home last night?

Well, he often spends the night at Hyun Jae's these days.

It kills me to see you this way though.

What?

Why's that?

No matter how much you voiced your hatred,

you couldn't get Yoon Jae to break up with that woman.

Come on.

As if that is the case for any family these days.

The same goes for you.

You weren't fond of So Ra...

when Sung Soo first brought her home.

I thought it'd be different for Kyung Ae...

since her son's a doctor.

She's a lawyer. One with her own law firm.

When it comes to their careers, Yoon Jae lacks in many ways.

- Let's go.
- Unbelievable.

- Kyung Chul, seriously.
- What?

You always drag your feet when we're off to yoga.

- Is that so?
- Yes!

Anyway, we'll grab a bite to eat after yoga with Jung Ja today.

We haven't seen her in a while.

Gosh. Kyung Ae, we can have lunch together!

Actually, Hyun Jae's buying me lunch today.

[Law Firm Haejun]

Hyun Jae, come on. Isn't it time for lunch?

I still have ten minutes.

Let's get going. It'd be nice to get there first.

You've been showing sides of you that I have never seen before.

Do you like my brother that much?

Forget it.

By the way, how did it go with Mi Rae and your parents?

My Mi Rae is one of those people who is adored by her elders.

What a joke.

It was to crack a laugh out of you, so I guess I succeeded.

- Cheeky brat.
- You laughed.

Let's get going already. Is this your jacket?

- Mother.
- My gosh.

Did I startle you?

What brings you here?

I wanted to have lunch with you, so I tagged along with Hyun Jae.

Oh, I see.

This way, please.

Where's Hyun Jae?

He's talking to his client on the phone.

We get a lot of calls from clients.

- Let's go in.
- Okay.

Yes. I'll see you tomorrow at three o'clock then.

Okay. Bye.

It's me.

I wanted to hear your voice before having lunch with my mom.

That's nice.

You sound a little down.

I'm feeling down.

I'm not in a good mood.

Why not?

I'll tell you later.

You said you'd give me a call yesterday, but you didn't.

It seems like there's something wrong with you.

Am I overreacting now?

It's just about my family.

Is your grandmother feeling worse?

No.

Can we meet up tonight?

I need to go to the hospital to be with Mom tonight.

It might be hard to see each other for a while.

Okay. I get it. Don't worry about that.

Bye.

I'm sure something's with her.

Mother, I can tell you like sushi.

There's nothing I particularly dislike.

Mother, aren't you going to speak casually to me?

Is it because I'm too old?

Gosh, she's very straightforward.

No, not really.

You see, it's a good thing that I'm old and mature.

Okay.

About that day...

In the elevator...

I acted like a crazy woman. It was because of Yoon Jae.

He said he wanted to casually date me.

Can you believe that?

I thought it was his girlfriend's idea.

So I just assumed that she wasn't that much into him.

You have to be serious when you date someone.

My point. I knew it.

I knew you'd understand me.

It's true I'm quite understanding.

Why aren't you saying anything? You said you wanted to talk to me.

But you care only about your phone.

I wanted to talk to you,

but I can't because she tagged along.

What is it you want to tell her? Go ahead and say it.

- Can't you say it because of me?
- I can't.

Then you should stay. I'll leave you two alone.

Mother, I have an appointment, so I should get going now.

Okay. Go ahead.

The lunch is on me.

And I'll order some extra for Father and Grandfather.

Sure.

Gosh, I'm hungry.

I told you to eat something, but you didn't. Stop complaining.

We're going to eat galbi,

so I didn't want to ruin my appetite.

The restaurant is so good.

You'll like the food even when you're full.

I will eat when I need to eat.

Whether I'm full or not...

Gosh, Mom.

It's no big deal. Will you stop nagging?

I'm not nagging.

Yes, you are.

You don't believe anything I say.

If you had believed me sooner,

I wouldn't have had to do the recording and everything.

You know it's not something easy to believe.

Sure.

Your daughter-in-law always comes before your daughter.

Gosh, that's just unbelievable.

Hey! I want to go home.

All I want is to eat, but what's all the fuss about?

You're the one who's making a fuss. Look who's talking.

Gosh.

I will have fresh ribs.

Let's eat marinated ribs today.

We can't ask them to grill them separately just for two people.

I don't like marinated ribs. They're too sweet.

I want to eat something sweet.

Why can't I have a dish I want? This is so upsetting.

I'm upset too.

I'm back in Korea after a long time.

Can't you just eat what I want?

Fine. I'll have marinated ribs.

Excuse me.

Lift your arms to your shoulders and twist your body gently.

Kyung Chul, why do you think Jung Ja didn't come today?

- I don't know.
- Did something happen to her?

I'm not sure.

What did you want to talk to me about?

I just want to talk about Mi Rae.

I guess you heard from Dad.

I did.

How did you like Mi Rae?

She seemed nice.

I was glad that you were nice to her that day.

Because I was nice to your girlfriend?

That's not what I meant.

Because you are a nice person.

I like that you treat others with decency.

What?

I first met her as a client,

so I never had romantic feelings for her.

Mi Rae asked me out first,

but now I like her more than she likes me.

So?

I want you to get along with her.

You silly thing.

- Have some.
- Gosh.

Gosh, I'm so tired.

I'm tired too.

Mom, do you want some water?

I want some sikhye.

Okay.

Hello, Kyung Soon.

Jung Ja, why didn't you come to the yoga class today?

I had a family emergency.

My goodness. What's wrong?

I'll talk to you later.

Mom, have some water.

I said I wanted some sikhye.

There's no sikhye in the fridge.

That ungrateful thing.

Just have one bite.

I don't want to.

[Mother]

Hello, Mother.

What's with you?

I'm sorry, Mother.

Don't you have anything to say to me?

I'm sorry.

Come home and let's talk.

- I like the food.
- Me too.

- I'm home.
- Come on and join us.

Come here.

You're having sushi. It looks delicious.

Your mom went to meet Hae Jun, and she got us this sushi.

- Really?
- Yes.

But she didn't get me anything. I can't believe this.

Don't pretend to be upset. I know you're elated.

That's my mom. You're so quick-witted.

When do you think we should meet with her family?

For me, the sooner the better.

We can't set the date before a meeting between the families.

Do you want to get married that soon?

Mom, will you let it slide?

Now that you've made up your mind, we should push it forward.

What about this weekend or the weekend after that?

This weekend works for us.

So who in your family will be attending the meeting?

I guess, my parents,

my grandpa, Hyun Jae, and Soo Jae.

What about you?

Maybe my brother, his wife, and his two children.

So where do we meet? I need to make a reservation.

Don't you think it's too late to make a reservation?

Let me take care of it. That's what I'm good at.

- Mom.
- Why are you here again?

I will sleep here with you tonight.

But I need to drop by our home.

Why?

I need to apologize to your grandma.

Do you want me to come with you?

No.

Honey.

- It's been a while.
- Hey, go to your room.

Why should I go to my room?

Where's your mother?

In her room.

I'll get her to come out.

No.

I'll talk to her.

Stay out of it.

Shouldn't you apologize to me too?

Yes, I'm sorry.

We were friends,

and I couldn't...

be honest around you.

I liked you a lot.

That's why I welcomed the idea of you marrying my brother.

I begged her to marry me.

Did you forget that?

How could I?

Butt out. We're talking.

Why are you out here and not coming to see me?

Why should she come in?

Since you came outside, you might as well sit down.

I'll talk to her in private.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I feel so betrayed,

I shudder even now.

How could you do this to me?

When I called you a professor's daughter,

what did you think?

When I praised you for coming from a good family,

did you laugh at me inwardly?

No. I felt so uncomfortable.

You've been married for over 30 years.

That's how long you deceived me!

You're not human.

That goes for your mother too.

When I accepted you as my daughter-in-law,

I said you were from a good family and therefore out of our league.

We practically bowed before your family!

What must I do to appease you however little I can?

You can't appease me!

I can't forgive you!

Mom.

Aren't you being too harsh?

Why would you treat her like she did something worthy of death?

How many times must I say this?

She wanted to tell the truth,

but I insisted we shouldn't.

She's not stupid.

Would she listen to you?

She kept it from us for a reason.

Did you think someone as intelligent as her...

would've just done something you said?

She got wise and came after our family's money.

Do you think she's like you?

The reason you flew in was...

to get Mom to sell her building.

She knew all about it but told me to stay away...

in case you got the wrong impression.

She said that because she knew Mom was planning to give it to her.

I told you to go back to Australia.

Leave immediately.

Why are you causing strife in someone else's family?

She decides when to fly back.

Did she come to see you? She came to see me.

What right do you have to shoo her away from her mom?

Why did you stand up?

I said all I have to say,

and you spoke in turn.

So what?

I'll wait until you calm down.

Honey.

You might as well sleep comfortably and go back tomorrow.

Mi Rae's with your mom.

Can I sleep comfortably here?

Not bad, Soo Jung.

You spoke your mind without batting an eyelid.

And upset my mom.

I told you to keep quiet.

Why should I keep quiet? Can't I speak up too?

You didn't just speak up.

Friends can slap each other when tempers flare.

It's no big deal.

Auntie.

Did you hit my mom?

Jung Hoo.

Did you slap her? How dare you?

What did my mom do?

Go upstairs.

I can't live with someone who hit my mom.

- Jung Hoo...
- Auntie.

You should go.

Mom, don't be intimidated. You don't have to.

I won't forgive anyone who attacks my mom.

This is unbelievable.

He's sh**ting lasers out his eyes.

I'm glad I have kids of my own.

I'd be so upset if I didn't.

Why did you do something that would only work against you?

My goodness.

What's wrong with you, Mom?

Go home.

If I do, can you handle all of them on your own?

"All of them" are my son, daughter-in-law, and grandkids.

This isn't a w*r.

It is a w*r.

If you lose now,

you'll have to merely breathe and exist.

Jin Heon's not like that.

People aren't always as they seem.

Did you think Soo Jung would lie?

Darn you.

You're hard to meet or to get on the phone.

It's nice to see you.

Goodness.

Where's your mom?

She went home for a bit.

Will you yell if I ask what's wrong?

No.

It's...

hard to say.

Then you don't have to explain.

The feeling that...

you know so little about your family.

Do you know how that feels?

I do.

You think you know them well,

but you don't.

I told you before...

that my family thought I was selfish.

An individualist.

But I'm not actually like that.

My younger brother. The troublemaker.

I found out for the first time...

he was capable of that.

I see.

Family...

live together once they're born.

Living together...

can create an illusion.

That you know them well.

That's how I felt.

About Mom.

But I prefer your mom's cooking.

Let's see...

What are you doing?

Packing food for Hae Jun.

She's too busy to cook.

Tell her to buy food.

That's what she must've been doing.

Give her some.

Goodness.

Back then, when Soo Jae's girlfriend was over,

I saw you pack food for her.

Don't discriminate.

Take it, then. I'll let you take it. Gosh.

How did you end up like this?

You're such an idiot.

I'm a moron.

Soo Jae.

You're leaving early.

I am.

The family's meeting my girlfriend's family this weekend.

Do you think you can make it?

I have a job scheduled that day.

So you can't make it?

I'll be there. I should greet my future sister-in-law.

Nice. How decent of you.

Saet Byul, I'll take only the macarons.

- No cookies?
- It's fine.

My mom will like the macarons more anyway.

- Are you thrilled to see her?
- I am.

When will you stop working at Bong Food?

My boss said he'd process my resignation as soon as possible.

I can work here starting next week.

- Really?
- Yes.

Gosh, your boss is the best.

I got the wrong idea about him at first,

but he really is the best.

[Samo Diner]

Mom.

Goodness, you're here.

Gosh.

It seems like you lost weight.

I haven't.

I bet you didn't even miss...

your family while living in Seoul.

Of course, I missed you all.

I had to bear with it because money had to be earned.

Did you earn a lot, then?

I will from now on.

Here you go.

They're from the bakery...

I'll be working at starting next week.

Will you stay the night today?

- Should I?
- Yes, you should.

Got it.

We have fine weather today.

It shows how great his marriage will be.

The weather today has nothing to do with that.

It's not even his wedding day.

At least it's nothing bad.

Can't you just let it slide?

Grandpa, shall we?

- Sure thing.
- Let me get in first.

That way, it'll be easier for him to get off later.

Why are you out here?

One might think that you're my fiance.

No one would ever think that.

Where's Yoon Jae?

The restroom. He must be nervous. I saw him dolling himself up.

Guys, over here!

- Auntie.
- Auntie.

- Have you been well?
- Congratulations, Auntie.

- I hope we're not late.
- You're not.

Hello. We met the other day...

when you came to see Hae Jun.

- Yes, of course. Hello.
- So...

Anyway, this is Lee Hyun Jae,

the deputy managing partner at my law firm.

- I see.
- He's Yoon Jae's younger brother.

Hello.

I hope we get along.

We should head inside. Yoon Jae's parents are already here.

Did we arrive too late?

No, of course not. Shall we?

- Sure thing.
- Come on.

My family's here.

- Hello.
- Hello.

I'm sorry.

I hope we're not late.

We're the ones who arrived here early.

Why don't we sit?

Please take your seat.

Take your seats.

Where on earth is Yoon Jae?

It's not like I'm getting married today,

so why am I nervous?

Gosh, I'll be late.

Why don't I see where Yoon Jae is at?

Sure.

Gosh, Hae Jun.

Sorry about that.

Hurry up and take your seat.

Oh, dear.

- Oh no.
- What just happened?

I'm so sorry.

[It's Beautiful Now]

What was so urgent that you had me stay behind?

Do you really want to marry into a family...

who treats you so poorly?

- Mom.
- What?

Is your mother not fond of me?

You're being too sensitive. It's nothing to be bothered about.

You're being sensitive, Mom.

Why didn't you tell me at that moment?

You heard me on the phone that day.

I don't even like how her parents are deceased.

I promised a retirement gift.

- Don't you want to know what it is?
- I do.

Yu Na, we should go our separate ways, then.

You should find your birth parents.

Find them and ask why they hurt you as a kid.

Ask them.

Did you tell Mi Rae that I was adopted?

Grandma Mi Young had my Mom...

Mom, why can't you say anything?

Doctor!

What does that mean?

That it's her fault she couldn't have kids.
