[Final Episode]

Drink this.

You don't need to stay here.

Go back to the hotel and wait.
I'll call you.

No, it's okay.

We'll stay here.
You should at least get some sleep.

You must be exhausted
from coming all the way from Seoul.

No, I'm fine.

If you guys get sick too, then what?

I'm sorry, Sang Gyu.

This is all my fault.

If I hadn't kept nagging her...

to grow up and get her act together...

Actually,

we didn't know
that you and Il Ri had broken up,

so we kept pushing her
to get married right away.

Il Ri was really hurt by it
and was having a hard time.

I'm the bad one.

I was completely clueless.

Even after knowing her for so long,

I never realized
how much she was struggling.

Stay here for a bit.

I'll look around some more.

Sang Gyu.

Il Ri, where the hell are you?

Na Jeong.

Yes?

Please wake Joo Young.

Joo Young.

I'll stay here,

so you go back to the hotel, okay?

If anything happens, I'll call you.

I'll look around a bit more
on the way back.

Okay.

- I'll call you.
- Yes.

I've never once imagined
a life without Il Ri.

In my suffocating life,

Il Ri was always like a refreshing soda.

Whenever anyone came at us,

she was always the first to step up
and fight for us.

What do I do?

I can't live without Il Ri.

I really can't.

What's that?

Isn't that Il Ri?

- Yes.
- Hey, pull over.

Okay.

Lee Il Ri.

Guys.

You little brat.

Hey, you bad girl.

I thought you were dead.

Even if you were going to die,
you can't just vanish on us like this.

I'm sorry.
You guys must've been really worried.

Your phone was off all night.

Do you know how scared we were?

Where did you go?

Well, I went to the beach alone
and had a few drinks last night.

And?

I suddenly needed the restroom,
so I ducked into some random building.

It's freezing.

Someone who came in for work this morning
opened the door for me,

so I managed to get out.

After shivering all night,
I was freezing to death.

So I pulled a towel
out of a used-clothes collection bin...

and wrapped myself up in it.

I'm sorry.

I couldn't tell when I was cold,
but now it smells awful.

Hey, call Sang Gyu first.

- He must be worried.
- Okay.

- Sang Gyu? Why?
- Sang Gyu.

We found Il Ri.

Sang Gyu called us,
so we told him you'd gone missing,

and he rushed straight here from Seoul.

Sang Gyu is here right now?

Yeah.

This is crazy.

Hey, let's hurry back to the hotel.
I need to wash up.

My gosh.

Seriously?

Even now, she wants to look good
in front of Sang Gyu.

[Marine Healing Center]

Il Ri.

Hey, Lee Il Ri.

No, don't.
I haven't washed yet.

I thought you were dead.
I honestly thought I'd lose my mind.

He doesn't smell that?

Does he have rhinitis or something?

You k*ll every mood.

Get this out of my sight.

How could you come all the way here
in the middle of the night?

What if you'd gotten into an accident?

When they said you'd disappeared,

I completely lost it
and couldn't see straight.

But I'm in trouble now.

I'm going to get
a ton of speeding tickets.

I'm going to be broke.

You've got some money, right?

You should cover it.

Why did you lie to me?

The medicine you were taking.

Those weren't vitamins.

How did you know?

Il Ri, you should've told me.

I really had no idea
you were going through that.

I didn't want to be
a burden on you, Sang Gyu.

You'd have plenty of chances
even without me.

I didn't want to take that away from you.

Il Ri.

I don't have any other chances.

You're my last chance.

I told you before, didn't I?

That you're like a child
left by the water's edge.

Feeling anxious about you
is more than enough for me.

Even if a hundred or a thousand others
came along,

I can't live without you.

Lee Il Ri.

Stop running away now,

and marry me.

Okay?

- What? Why?
- Wait a second.

What are you looking for?

Is something there?

Give me your hand.

Il Ri.

What if someone sees us?

Stay still.

This is exactly
the kind of moment I dreamed of.

Guys.

I'll ride in Sang Gyu's car.
You two go by yourselves.

Let's meet at the rest stop.

See you in a bit.

Seriously?

Hey, are we completely invisible
to you now?

Why did we stay up all night
worrying for nothing? This is so unfair.

Exactly.

I can't even.

You two can have more space.

Thanks.

Let's go.

No matter how I think about it,
that fortune teller was spot on.

How did it match Il Ri
and Sang Gyu's situation so perfectly?

I know, right?

I'm too scared to get spiritual readings.

That one really gave me chills.

Gu Joo Young.

You should be honest too.

Who's the man that makes your heart race
and your chest flutter?

What is that reaction?

So there really is someone?

Where did you meet him?

What's his name?

Tell me.

Oh Sang Min.

The Oh Sang Min I know?

Actually...

Yeah?

About Rebecca and Jessica.

I really never imagined
that Sang Min would have...

such a painful story like that.

Like you said,
it doesn't quite feel right...

to just call that perversion, does it?

Come to think of it, I'd forgotten.

I think I also once had
one of those worry dolls.

What do you mean?

I read a book when I was little,

and it said that Native Americans
keep worry dolls...

by their pillow even as adults
before going to sleep,

and tell them all the worries of the day.

After all, most worries
are 90 percent useless anyway.

So after reading that,

when my dad passed away,
and I was having a really hard time,

my mom was doing side work at home...

and she gave me a leftover teddy bear.

So to that teddy bear,
I rambled on and on...

about this and that.

Well, it was only for a short time.

But back then,

it was a pretty big comfort to me.

In life, something that feels
completely natural to me...

could seem very strange
to someone else,

and something that feels
very strange to me...

could feel completely natural
to someone else.

Who has the right to judge anyone
so carelessly?

Think of it as your last chance...

and try reaching out to Sang Min.

[Joo Young]

Say hi.

From today on,
these worry dolls will live with me.

[Sweet Home Shopping]

Here.

I didn't return it.

You didn't process the return
on the intranet?

I missed one.

Please write your former department
and name.

[Sweet Home Shopping Checkout Log]

[Resignation]

Thank you.

Ms. Cho?

Mr. Kim h* Young.

Look at you.

It's been so long, honey.

I know.

Running into the sell-out fairy here?

I came to pull Sweet Home Shopping's sales
back up again.

I heard you went back on air,

but I didn't get a chance to tune in.

Are you doing well?

I did go back,

but now I'm fired again.

What? Why?

Well, it's a long story.

Things just ended up that way.

That's unbelievable.

Why couldn't Sweet Home Shopping recognize
a talent like you...

and just let you
slip through their fingers?

So, are you trying to transfer
to another network?

I'm looking into it,

but it's tougher than I thought.

You know how fierce the competition is.

Then you should find another route too.

Another route?

These days,
who waits to be told to go on air?

All you need is this.

I started YouTube and built my brand,

and that's how I got here.

Even a baby has to cry to get fed.

Instead of just sitting around
until you lose your edge,

just go for it.

These days, building your own brand
is the best move.

I'd better go now.
Call me.

Yeah, bye.

[Boosted h* Young]

Hello.

I'm Cho Na Jeong,

a former show host
with eight years of experience.

Working in this industry,

there's truly nothing I haven't sold.

But even someone like me...

has luxury items
I would never buy with my own money.

Things I sold with my own hands,
but never bought.

In this series,
I'll be completely honest with all of you.

The show may be over,
but shopping must go on.

The show must go on.

[Real luxury items only
sellers know to truly avoid]

[Upload]

Well done, Cho Na Jeong.

Good work, Cho Na Jeong.

Don't be overly ambitious from the start.

Take it step by step.

Bye, then.

- Get home safely.
- You too.

Honey.

What brings you here?

Did you come to see a show?

No, not that.

Then what?

Did you come to see me?

Yeah.

Why?

I wanted to apologize for last time.

I snapped at you for nothing.

I wasn't angry at you.

I was just...

so embarrassed and ashamed,

and that made me lash out too much.

I regretted it terribly
the moment I walked out,

and I wanted to call you,

but I just didn't have the courage.

You came all this way to say that?

It's all because I'm lacking...

and not good enough.

And also,

thank you so much
for understanding me anyway.

I'll go.

I've got plenty of time,
so call me anytime.

Seriously, you can call me anytime.

Do you want to grab a drink?

Do you have time?
Aren't you tired?

You even brought flowers as a gift.

It wouldn't feel right
not to buy a drink in return.

Shall we, then?

About...

Rebecca and Jessica.

I'm really sorry
I couldn't be honest with you about them.

They were the only friends
who ever comforted me since I was little,

so I just couldn't bring myself
to cut them off.

The more my feelings for you grew,

the harder it became to confess.

It's all because I was a coward.

I ran away because I didn't even have
the courage to be honest.

And once I was found out,

I was so ashamed...

that I just gave up on everything.

I'm a truly pathetic guy.

I wasn't good to you myself.

I got obsessed
with that whole perfect family thing,

and all I ever talked about
was babies and ovulation.

I'm sure you got sick of it.

Come to think of it,

we actually have a lot in common.

Once we fixate on something,
we totally lose our heads,

and we're both model students
in our own way.

Maybe...

I was drawn to you...

because you resemble me so much.

I'm sorry.

I was totally dumbfounded
by that counselor too.

Lecturing me out of nowhere?

"Ma'am, have you ever
expressed dissatisfaction..."

"with your sexual relationship
with your husband?"

I was so embarrassed I wanted to die.

It was that drama therapy for me.

That was my real mental breakdown.

- Right.
- Yeah.

Wrapping weird cloth all around you,

and telling you to stand up.

But still,

it was kind of fun.
It was a new experience.

I liked it more
because I did it with you, honey.

But...

why did you suddenly suggest
marriage counseling back then?

You won't believe me,

but...

I really...

honestly wanted to get intimate with you.

You're still the sexiest...

and the most beautiful person in my eyes.

I really mean it.

But strangely,
whenever your ovulation day came,

I got so tense
that things just didn't work.

And that frustrated me too.

You know,

that counseling...

wasn't just for the baby either.

Our newlywed days were really great.

But saying I just wanted to do it
straight out...

felt kind of embarrassing and awkward,

so I think I made up a little excuse.

Then...

you hadn't stopped liking me?

No way.

I wanted to get intimate
because I liked you.

Can I kiss you?

Why do you even ask that?

Well, still, we're divorced now.

If you don't want to, never mind.

Honey, slow down.

This is right in front of my company.

Hurry.

Slow down.

[Lux Hanmaeum Motel]

What's up with the views?

Did I get my hopes up too much?

What's the problem?

[Real luxury items only
sellers know to truly avoid]

Who is it?

Ye Na, what brings you here?

It's heavy.
Here, take this first.

Okay.

Why beef all of a sudden?

A partner company gave it to me
for doing well on air,

but I was worried about gaining weight
and couldn't eat it all,

and it felt like a waste to throw it away.

So I brought it for your kids to eat.

Song Ye Na, I'm so touched.

You can do thoughtful stuff like this?

What are you talking about?

I've always been soft-hearted.

I just got worn down by life
and ended up like this.

What's this?

It's nothing.

Na Jeong, are you doing YouTube?

It's just a trial.

[The show must go on]

You laughed at me.

Hey, the views are lousy
because it's my first time.

If I keep at it, they'll soar.

Forget the views.

Since when do you deal in luxury goods?

Do something that suits you, not this.

This really doesn't fit you.

Then what suits me?

How would I know that?

I'm thirsty.

What kind of hospitality is this?

You slept over once,
and now you're totally comfortable.

Do you have any sparkling water?

I'll go buy some.

There's really a lot.

What does it even mean
to do something that suits me?

Something that suits me?

Something that suits me?

- Mom.
- Mom.

Did my little princes have fun?

Yes.

Mom, can we play at the playground
for a little bit?

Yeah, sure.

Give me your bag. Wait.

Guys.

Don't do anything too dangerous.

Watch the stairs.

Slowly. Watch the stairs.

Min Woo, slowly.

There.

Faster.

Wait a second!
What's this?

Where did you get this on you?

We'll have to get this cleaned off
as soon as we get home.

Who left crayons here?

You look so pretty.

This makes no sense.

Lee Il Ri, you look insanely pretty.

It really suits you.

Perfect. I choose this one.

Me too.

This one looks great on you too.

You don't look human in this.
You look unreal.

This is honestly unbelievable.

You're blindingly gorgeous.

This dress is really nice.

I love it.

It's good.

You look so pretty.

- This one's not bad either.
- Right.

Are you two tired?

- No.
- No.

You're not, right?

That's great.

You're saying everything's great.

Maybe I should try on one more.

One more? Okay.

I'll try on one more.

This one's pretty too.

And this one's pretty too.

Eat some meat.

They all look so good on me.
I can't pick just one.

Sang Gyu, which one did you like the most?

They all looked pretty to me.

Seriously?

Are you even paying attention to me?

At the end, you were dozing off
and not reacting at all.

Am I getting married all by myself here?

They all looked beautiful to me.
I mean it.

Which one did you like best?

Well,

I thought the first one you tried on
suited you the best.

Isn't that one a bit plain, though?

It's not like I can just
pick something at random.

I'm a deputy editor at a fashion magazine.

Think how many people will be watching me.

This won't do.

Let's hit two more places next week.

What, you don't want to?

- No, it's not that.
- No.

I'd actually love that.

Right, Gu Joo Young, since you're coming
next week, go on a blind date.

A blind date?

Out of nowhere?

What are you talking about?
There's no "right time" for a blind date.

I mean,

it hasn't been that long
since the divorce.

What does that matter?
You take the chance when you get it.

There's a divorced doctor
at Sang Gyu's hospital.

Apparently, he's a really good guy.

It's not like he's weird or anything.

His wife cheated on him,
so he had no choice but to divorce.

When you think about it, you also stepped
in crap through no fault of your own.

And he stepped in crap
through no fault of his own too.

What a perfect match is that?

No thanks, I'm good.

Hey, wounds you get from people...

you heal with people.

While you're still even a year younger,

you should meet someone decent
and start fresh.

Enough.

I have zero intention of seeing anyone.

What's this?

Are you seeing someone these days?

You've been acting suspicious lately.

I'm not.

I'm really not.

[Sang Min]

Excuse me.

Hey.

Yeah, what's up?

What?

She's acting suspicious.

They all looked pretty.

Stop it.

You're almost done now, right?

I'm on my way.
How long will it take?

There are still three of us here right now,

so don't call, just text me.

Have you eaten?

Haven't you eaten, Sang Min?

But it's already late.

I'm eating with Il Ri right now,

so if you're hungry, grab something first.

- I'll be there soon.
- Okay, see you in a bit.

What?

"Sang Min?"

So?

From that moment on,
it all started burning up again?

So you slept with him again,

and you were too embarrassed to tell us?

Look at you, sneaking around
on the down low like a pro.

I'm sorry.

But somehow, it just felt
kind of embarrassing to bring up.

What's embarrassing about that?
It's not like we're minors.

Is there some law that says once you're
divorced, you can't sleep together again?

Hey, keep your voice down.

I said I'm embarrassed.

No wonder.

Your face has been all rosy lately.

I thought you looked so much brighter.

Now it all makes sense.

So?

Is your ex any good?

Hey.

Once that pressure was off,

we did it twice,

and even three times.

My goodness.

At this rate, doing it all the time,
what if you end up pregnant?

Can you please talk quieter, Lee Il Ri?

Three times?

Be quiet.

Are you still feeling nauseous?

What did you eat for it to sit heavily?

I don't know.

Seeing Il Ri in all those dresses
made me so hungry...

I inhaled spicy pork
and soybean paste stew,

and I've felt bloated ever since.

Hold on, I'll get you a digestive.

We're out of digestives.

I'll run to the convenience store
and grab some.

If the pharmacy's open,
buy a box of digestive medicine.

If it's closed,
get a few sparkling waters.

My digestion's been off
all the time lately.

- Got it. I'll be right back.
- Okay.

What is wrong with me these days?

Every time I eat,
it sits heavily, and I feel awful.

My goodness.

At this rate, doing it all the time,
what if you end up pregnant?

If only I were that lucky.

[Pregnancy Test]

Honey, I got the digestive.

Honey.

Honey, what's wrong?

Hey.

What's going on?
Does it hurt too much?

No.

It's not that.

Tell me.

It's not that.

Honey, by any chance,

do you want to be a dad?

What?

I...

I'm...

[Pregnant]

Honey.

You've really been through a lot.

Congratulations.

Who's leaning on the doorbell like that?

Who is it?

You scared me.
I thought something had happened, Jin Hee.

Why weren't you answering your phone?

I was cleaning.
Have a seat.

- Hey.
- Yeah?

Are you making YouTube videos these days?

How did you know?

My sister texted me.

She asked if the person in this video
was my friend.

Hello.

Subscribers of Show Must Go On,
this is Cho Na Jeong.

On Show Must Go On,

we've launched a new segment
called "Mom Tried It Items."

Among moms with little ones these days,

this is getting shared around like crazy.

Really?

Yeah.

That's wild. When I checked yesterday,

it wasn't doing this well.

The response is great.

But look here.
I've got 815 subscribers, right?

You have to pass 1,000
before you can start making money.

So close.

Then hurry up and upload something new.

You've got to strike
while the iron is hot.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

- I should, right?
- Of course.

Okay, Jin Hee.

I've come up with a few follow-up ideas.

- Take a look.
- Let's see.

We sell a mini massager
together with an ampoule set.

"A face line that changes
with just one minute a day."

- Something like this.
- Okay.

Another one is an automatic
vibrating scalp cleaner.

Jin Hee, you really need to try this.

Will it make my hair grow?

Yeah. This is a scalp cleaner.
It deep-cleans your scalp.

I'll leave you a great review.

Promise.

Everyone,

raising two boys,

I've tried every detergent under the sun.

Among them,
which detergent lifts stains the best?

I'll show you through this test.

Look.

I'm going all in.

My kids do this.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

They come home
with stains from all of them.

Under the exact same conditions,

I'll run the washer for 40 minutes.

Look.

First up is Aclean.

Okay.

I'll show you the results
after washing under the same conditions...

right away.

First, Aclean. Here we go.

The pen marks definitely look
a bit lighter.

But the ketchup and mayonnaise stains
are still partly there.

Now, next.

It's going up.

Yes!

Keep going up.

As for Lemon Plus,

compared to Aclean,

the mayo and ketchup look
a bit more faded, right?

Go, keep rising.

Making money off other people
really isn't easy.

Look at this.

It briefly hit 210 dollars,
then dropped back to 25.

At this rate, my family
couldn't even afford one fried chicken.

What am I supposed to do?

Should I change up my content?

Hey, just wait and see.

Once you've uploaded this much content,

you never know when the algorithm
will grab it and make it popular.

All the moms in my neighborhood...

know your channel.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Still, it's not easy.

At this rate, I might have to get
a part-time job at a convenience store.

Noh Min Jun, don't lie down.

Get up. Hey, no.

Get up.

Lock it.

Okay.

Min Jun, here.

I had fun today.

Me too, Jin Hee.

Let's meet again when you're free,
and let the kids play.

Yeah, let's do that.

By the way, what brand is this car seat?

It looks really nice.

Jin Hee, this one is great.

It's not a big brand.
It's from a small company,

but it's way more comfortable,
and the safety is outstanding.

- Really?
- Hold on.

These kids are so wild in the car...

that when it came to car seats,
I researched everything...

and picked this one super carefully.

- Hey.
- Yeah?

Then make a video about this.

- About what?
- A car seat comparison review.

A car seat comparison review?

This is the perfect item.

That's perfect.

Thanks.

I had such a great time today.
Get home safe.

- You too.
- Okay.

Let's go.

- Bye, Ah Young.
- Say bye.

FixPro is great overall,

but the recline adjustment was brutal.

The kids love the Guardian360,

but getting them out
was way too much work for me.

Overall, Veec scores the highest.

[Car Seat Comparison Chart]

How is this tougher than home shopping?

You're still working?

What time is it?
Did I wake you?

No, I just woke up because I was thirsty.

When are you going to sleep?

I'll go to bed
after I finish sorting this data.

You're working harder
than when you were at the company.

Is there anything I can help with?

I'm okay for now.

If it really gets too hard,
I'll ask you for help.

Okay.
Wrap it up quickly and come to bed.

Okay.

So...

[Car Seat Comparison Chart]

Okay, then.

Honey, turn off the alarm.

That's yours.
I didn't set an alarm.

I didn't set one either.

It's yours. Turn it off.

Mine?

[Comments]

Honey.

Honey, look at this.

What's going on?

Look at this.

What is this?

I think they're comments.

Is this really your account?
Did you get hacked or something?

- Hacked?
- Why is it blowing up like this?

How many are there?

[The Car Seat of My Life]

I'm actress Han Su Ji.

- A few days ago,
- It's Han Su Ji.

The car my child was riding in
was in a traffic accident,

and the rescue workers told me...

that my child survived
thanks to the car seat.

I actually bought that car seat...

after watching a review
on Show Must Go On.

So I wanted to thank you from the bottom
of my heart, which is why I'm here.

I saw the news and came to watch.

I found out from Han Su Ji's comment.

The car seat they mentioned on the news...

was the one you picked
as your top choice here, so I came.

A car overturned on a rainy road,

but the child was miraculously rescued
unharmed, and it's become big news.

What?

Is this that "power of the algorithm"
everyone talks about?

They're saying
it's thanks to using a safe car seat.

At the scene of the accident...

Hello?

Is this Ms. Cho Na Jeong?

Yes, speaking. Who's this?

[VEEC - Kim Won Hun]

It's a real pleasure to meet you.

I'm Kim Won Hun, CEO of Veec Car Seats.

Hello, I'm Cho Na Jeong.

To be honest,
we have a really good product.

But our marketing budget can't compete
with the big corporations,

so we had been thinking
about shutting down.

But then, you posted a review
on "Mom Tried It Items,"

and orders started climbing,

and even Han Su Ji posted on our website,

and now, the company
has completely bounced back.

We're truly grateful.

Not at all.

All I did was recommend a good product
because it's good.

I should be the one thanking you.

The reason I asked to see you today...

is that thanks to all this word of mouth,

we've been given the chance
to get on a home shopping channel.

I see.

For that show,

we were hoping you could appear
as a guest.

Me?

Which channel will it air on?

Sweet Home Shopping.

Sweet Home Shopping?

To be honest, Mr. Kim,

I was on Sweet Home Shopping's
career-interrupted women's program...

as an intern, and got fired.

I'm grateful for the offer,

but I'm not sure
they'd be thrilled to have me.

I see.

Yes.

Still, passing on someone
with this much buzz...

would be a big loss for us,

and I think the company
will understand as well.

As long as you say yes,

I'll explain things well to the company.

Okay.

What do you want to do, honey?

I'm not sure.

I'm fifty-fifty about it.

Going back to home shopping
does sound good,

but I'm scared I'll get hurt again.

And if the results aren't good,

I feel like I'd be letting down CEO Kim,
who believed in me.

What do you think?

Just do it.

Just do it?

Yeah, do it.

Anyone can see this is
an amazing opportunity for your channel.

There's no reason not to go.

And I think it's the perfect chance...

for you to really prove yourself.

But if I mess up on air
and sales don't come in,

it'll hurt the CEO a lot too.

Why worry about that?

You're Cho Na Jeong.

The Cho Na Jeong I know...

would never let the broadcast fail.

You're the one who picked this product,

and you genuinely care,

and I've seen with my own eyes
how much research you put into it.

You really think so?

Yeah.

But...

why did you change so much?

What do you mean?

Compared to before,
you're like a completely different person.

Hey, forget how I used to be.

What matters is what I do from now on.

"Just do it!"

[Sweet Home Shopping]

Hello, Executive Director.

You remember me, right?

I'm Cho Na Jeong, who did
the career-break return internship.

Yes.

We meet again.

Life really does throw
some strange things at you.

Because of coincidences like this,

you're aiming to get a chance
to make your way back into home shopping?

You're very lucky.

"Lucky," Executive Director?

Do you know how much I've worked
and honed my skills to get here?

I'd be a bit hurt
if you brushed it off like that.

If I manage to bring in sales
beyond your expectations,

I'll be expecting an apology
for that comment.

All right.

For now, just focus on boosting sales.

You two can keep talking.

[Veec]

Na Jeong.

Show them today
what you're really made of.

Okay. Let's do this.

Let's do this.

We're live in five seconds.

We're live in five seconds.

[On air]

Hello, customers.
I'm the show host Song Ye Na.

And I'm Cho Na Jeong
from "Mom Tried It Items"...

on YouTube.

Some of you may know who I am,

and some of you may not.

To explain briefly,

on the channel "Show Must Go On,"

I produce and run
the "Mom Tried It Items" content.

So why am I on home shopping today?

Well,

after being tested and tested and tested
on my channel,

this very Veec car seat I introduced...

kept a child completely safe
in a traffic accident.

Those kinds of reviews...

kept pouring in, so the moms went wild.

I see. Let's take a look.

This is the very article...

that had the mom community buzzing.

A child who survived unharmed
in a half-crushed car?

The secret was this car seat?

Show Must Go On made it all the way here.
I'm moved!

Na Jeong, you're the best.

The live comments are great right now.
The energy is really good.

I saw that article too.

Is this that car seat?

If they only did baby-gear shows
like this, I'd watch every week.

Honest reviews are so welcome.

The response right now is incredible.

Today, our customers...

are giving us
a truly record-breaking response.

So how many units do we have left?

Ten left.

We've just heard
there are only about ten left.

In Sweet Home Shopping's history,
in terms of car seats,

it looks like we're about to set
a new record.

Yes.

And as we speak, the entire stock...

has completely sold out.

We're sold out.

Everyone, thank you so much.

Great work, everyone.

- Great job.
- Great job.

From now on as well,
we'll personally use...

and thoroughly test the products ourselves
and show them to you honestly.

To all the customers who joined us today,

we'd like to thank you once again.

Thank you.

Great job today.

- Thank you.
- Yes.

Ms. Cho Na Jeong.

Yes?

You really worked hard on today's show.

Number one in real-time sales.

That's more than I ever expected.

Thank you.

So, about that comment
that I just luckily got back in.

May I get an apology?

You're right.

I should be apologizing.

Yes.

Wait, Ms. Cho.

Yes?

Watching you today,

I felt your talent as a show host...

is truly exceptional.

Would you, by any chance,
consider coming back...

to Sweet Home Shopping?

To Sweet Home Shopping?

I want to enjoy my work
and also live fully as a mom.

For me, Sweet Home Shopping...

hasn't exactly been all that sweet.

I see.

Well, that's a shame,
but it is what it is.

Still, you can keep collaborating with us
on follow-up projects, right?

Of course.

[1 year later]

You're up early.

Yeah.

Is it Na Jeong's birthday?

Yeah.

Happy 42nd birthday, Cho Na Jeong.

Did you have your seaweed soup?

I don't know.
I'm not sure I'll have time.

I'm running late for an interview.

Honey, I've got an interview today,
so I'll head out first.

- Father, I'll be back.
- All right, go on.

Min Woo, Min Jun, go to kindergarten
with Grandpa and be good.

Okay.

Honey, wait.

Here, at least have one spoon
of seaweed soup before you go.

It's hot.

It's really good.

- Yeah?
- I'll come home early.

Happy birthday, honey.

Thanks.

See you later.

Yeah.

Naraeng, happy birthday.

I'm still so jealous that you're busy.

Oh Jae In.

Are you really not going to sleep?

When are you ever going to sleep?

Why is your day and night
completely flipped?

Honey, sorry.

I couldn't get up again.

Come here and take the baby.

Hang on, okay.

Come here.

Did you have your food?

Yeah?

- You're hungry, aren't you?
- Yeah.

I'll make breakfast.

We should definitely meet up today,
don't we?

Naraeng.

You'll need to spend dinner
with your family,

so let's have a nice lunch out.

How about here?

That looks great.

Gu Joo Young, can you come?

Yeah.

Our babysitter's coming today,

so I think I can go out.

Deal.

Then noon, here.

Na Jeong,

I hope you have the happiest day
in the whole world today.

- Coffee?
- Yeah.

Okay.

- Hello.
- Hello.

We're here for the interview.

- I see.
- I'm so nervous.

Thank you so much.

- I'm such a fan.
- You're so beautiful.

Thank you.

Good luck, everyone.

- Thank you.
- Sure.

- You're so pretty.
- Your show is so beautiful.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

When did you prepare all this?

But, anyway,

there are way more applicants
than I expected.

Exactly.

We narrowed it down as much as we could,

but I guess there are a lot of moms
who want to work.

Yeah, I see.

Do you think it'll be past 12 p.m.
by the time the last interview is over?

Not sure.
If we move fast, it'll wrap up quickly,

but I can't promise it'll be before noon.

CEO Cho, could you approve this?

What?

How about this for the next review?

Let's see.

- Take a look at this.
- Yeah.

I tested it beforehand.

Yeah?

From application to finish,
it feels really nice.

Then I should try it too.

Jin Hee, can you get me a sample?

Okay.

- Thanks.
- Okay.

[CEO Cho Na Jeong]

Guys, a lot of applicants showed up.

So noon seems impossible.

Should we push it back a bit?

[Editor-in-Chief's Office]

Hey, Choi Woo Ram.

Why does the cover sh**t look like this?

We shot outside that day,
and the weather was bad,

so the light quality wasn't great.

If the weather's bad, you move the date,

or change the concept.
You should've done something.

The fact that you thought of bringing this
to me for approval...

does not even make sense.

Within the next two hours,

we're changing the concept
and redoing the entire layout.

Woo Ram, contact the actor
and check their schedule.

If they can't,
tell them we'll replace them.

And apologize.

Hye Jeong, back up Woo Ram.

Rebook everything
from the sh**t, makeup, and wardrobe.

Once the concept is reset,
come straight to my office.

Yes.

[Editor-in-Chief Lee Il Ri]

Sorry, guys.

The cover sh**t fell through,
so one o'clock's not happening.

How about two?

Oh Jae In.

Go to sleep.

If you're sleepy, you should sleep.

Why are you torturing me
instead of sleeping?

Yes, ma'am?

Yes.

Sorry?

Yes, okay.

It can't be helped.

All right, bye.

Okay.

Yeah.

I'll call the other sitters. It's okay.

Guys, I'm sorry.

I don't think I can go out today.

The sitter says she can't make it.

All done.

It's fine.
It's not like today's the only day.

Let's just meet on the weekend instead.

Is the birthday what matters most?

Seeing you guys is what matters most.

Yeah.

A weekend when Sang Min's off
would be even better.

Then how about making it a family outing?

Sounds great.

- The barbecue place near my place?
- Yeah.

We can relax, have some wine,
and grill some meat.

That sounds great.

First time in a while
I get some fresh air.

No matter what,
we're meeting this weekend.

Okay?

IlNaYoung.

- Thank you for the food.
- Looks delicious.

Thanks.

My sweet husband.

Yeah.

Right.

The kids are really having fun.

- Right? They're so excited.
- Yeah.

He's really grown.

Right?

But these days, he really doesn't listen.

He takes after his mom.

Honey.

How long has it been
since we've had free time like this?

These days, I don't even know
how the days go by.

I don't have a second to breathe.

Honestly, once I became the owner,
I thought it'd be a bit easier.

But there's not a single thing
I can take my hands off.

I'm completely overwhelmed too.

I had no idea raising a kid
would be this hardcore.

I just wish I could flop down flat...

and sleep straight through.

- Right?
- Well, look at you two.

You guys have completely...

changed your minds.

Hey, Cho Naraeng.

When you first started your company,

you were a wreck worrying what you'd do
if there weren't any clients.

And you, Gu Joo Young.

You were worried sick,
saying you might never get pregnant.

Exactly.

That's so true.

But,

strangely enough,

it feels like we're each
making things happen...

little by little, doesn't it?

You have your daughter, Jae In.

You have Sang Gyu.

And...

I have my work and my family.

Incredible.

You're right.

Yes.

Life is sometimes a series of hardships,

but even in those days,

because we were with
these precious people,

it could still be beautiful.

Your food is here.

Looks delicious.
Who made this?

Honey, come here for a second.

Okay.

- Go on.
- This looks appetizing.

Don't open your eyes yet.

Why, what is it?

Just one more step forward.

It's nothing big.

Ta-da.

What's this?

We never even got proper rings
when we got married.

Honey.

I was going to give it to you
right on your birthday,

but it took a while to get the size right.

I'm sorry.

I'm so moved.

Do you like it?

Of course, I do.

A hundred, a thousand times more
than the apron.

Let's forget about that one.

You know I'm always on your side, right?

The best thing I ever did in my life...

was marrying you.

Me too.

You put it on me.

It's so beautiful. Thank you.

Don't mention it.

I'll put yours on for you.

It looks perfect on you.

Sorry it took so long.

It's okay.

Hurry up, Cho Naraeng.
The wax is dripping.

My birthday's already gone.
What's with the cake?

We couldn't just let it pass.

Of course not.
You've got to cut a birthday cake.

Thank you, everyone.

Blow them out.
Make a wish first.

Let's all be happy every single day.

One, two, three.

I'll throw my arms around my life
with everything I've got.

Because there is no next life.

[Don't call me ma'am]
