01x19 - Fighting Back

[bunniefuu]

Why are you staring at me like that?

Why do you keep trying to leave?

What?

Why do you try...

to wrap things up so quickly?

Tae Kyung.

Is it easy...

for you to end things?

Do you want to split up...

with me so soon?

Gosh.

Tae Kyung.

Do you...

have feelings...

for me?

[Yeon Doo. Be happy.
I'm leaving Korea.]

Yeon Doo. I'm sorry for everything.
I really did love you.

Wait. What are you saying?

Who said I liked you?

Well, just now...

You acted as if you didn't want
to say goodbye to me.

Why would you think such a thing?
That's so unpleasant.

Yeon Doo. You're not my style.

Don't you know that?

Oh, yes. That's right.

Gosh. You scared me there.

You got scared?

Of course.

We just have a contractual
relationship for business purposes.

If either one of us
starts to get weird feelings,

things will become awkward.

How far will you let
your imagination go?

I told you from the beginning...

that you shouldn't mistake
my kindness as love.

Just make sure
you don't get weird feelings for me.

That will never happen
because I have Real.

What a relief.

I'm really grateful to Real.

What was I blabbering on about?

I don't know.

What?

Why is my phone here?

I'm sure I left it in my room.

What are you doing there?

I was looking around the room.

No way. It can't be.

Why does this number
look so familiar?

The phone is turned off.
Please leave a message...

[Traditional Honey]

Tae Kyung.

Do you...

have feelings...

for me?

Why did I ask him such a thing?

Oh, my head.

Why do you try...

to wrap things up so quickly?

Do you want to split up...

with me so soon?

Tae Kyung.

Wake up and have some honey water.

I heard you from outside.

I know you're embarrassed,
but please get up.

Why?

Are you going to believe
I like you again?

Why would I think such a thing?

Don't you feel sorry?

I dragged you up to the second floor
in the middle of the night...

because you were drunk,
took off your clothes and socks,

and kindly washed
your face and hands.

On top of that, I even tolerated...

your drunken blabbering
and cheesy facial expressions.

- Gosh.
- Do you think...

I'm actually your wife?

Are you trying to make me feel bad
right now?

Until we wrap things up,
we should play our roles.

Give it to me. I'll drink all of the
honey water as your husband.

Tae Kyung. Are you up?

Tae Kyung.
What were you thinking last night?

All of the elders were home,
but because you were so drunk,

you had to be supported in
by a woman.

And by Ms. Jang, of all people!

How startled do you think
Yeon Doo must've been?

Is that the kind of example
you want to set Real?

I'm sorry, Mom.

Yeon Doo, I apologize instead.

I did a terrible job raising my son.

No, mother.

It was just a mistake.

He's like this
because you're so lenient.

You need to nag and scold him.

Okay, I'll try.

Tae Kyung, will you
give me a checkup today?

Yes, of course.

Ask Mr. Kim to drive you over
so you don't exhaust yourself.

See, Mother?
He cares a lot about me.

My gosh. You're defending
your husband already?

I'll scold you even worse
if this happens again.

Come home early today
so you don't worry Yeon Doo.

Yes, Mom.

Oh, right.

Work on the annex is done.

You can move back in tomorrow.

We'll do that. I have to go to work.

Go and have breakfast.

Are you all right, Yeon Doo?

How could he have a drink with
the woman he almost married,

then get drunk
and let her bring him home?

Ms. Jang's the family secretary.
It can happen.

You're way too understanding.

Who gets drunk with a secretary?

Old habits die hard.

He must be having an affair again.

Grandma, you can't say that
around his wife.

I want her to hear it.

He left his fiancée at the altar.

I laughed to myself when he heard
he'd marry someone for the baby.

I'm not sure how long...

the irresponsible fool
can last as a married man.

He's not cut out to be a dad.

You chose the wrong guy.

I think so too.

What?

You must be
really angry with Tae Kyung.

I'm not.

You can't get angry
if you had no expectations.

Why do you only blame Tae Kyung,
Grandma?

Was it right for Ms. Jang
to drink alone with a married man?

Ms. Jang's a single woman,

and Tae Kyung's a married man,
so that makes him...

more guilty, right?

My gosh.
You might get divorced in no time.

Should I just get divorced, Grandma?

What?

I was kidding.

Finish your breakfast.

Sir, I'm here to pick you up.

Hello. Good morning.

I'm sorry for the intrusion
last night.

I apologize.

You should.

You acted out of character.

Please wait, honey.

Ms. Jang and I must talk.

Leave it.

Why would you blame her
when your son's in the wrong?

I'll talk sense into her.
You don't have to.

Ms. Jang, come inside.

Yes, ma'am.

I know what you want to say.

I'll apologize to Yeon Doo
after my chat with Ms. Eun.

You can't dupe me.

She hasn't given up
on Tae Kyung yet.

Be sure she apologizes to you.

And make her promise
it won't happen again, okay?

Yes, Mother.

How did you end up
drinking with him?

Did you two get close already?

I barely just became his friend.

It's just the beginning.

I couldn't call you recently,
I had so much on my mind.

Why haven't you called me at all?

Did you find anything out
about the thing at the annex?

We might be able to
wrap things up between us sooner.

Yeon Doo, goodbye.

I'm leaving Korea.

I'm sorry and I loved you.

I don't have anything yet.

I'm sorry.

Shall I ask them what
the three months thing is about?

No. If you were to ask,
they'll just make up an excuse.

I'll handle it. Can you pretend
you don't know anything?

Okay.

Pretend to apologize
to the annex thing.

You need to get In Ok off your back.

Yes, ma'am.

I apologize
for what happened yesterday.

I crossed the line.

You don't have to do this.

- Have a seat.
- No, thanks.

Even if we'd met by chance,

I did something I shouldn't have.

I wanted to look out for him
because he's my employer's family.

As a secretary,
you could feel that way.

Thank you for looking out
for Tae Kyung.

Thank you for being understanding.

Anyway,

yesterday, did you
see my phone in my room?

No, I didn't.

Why? Is your phone missing?

No. I guess I was mistaken.

Sorry.

Bye, then.

[Old School]

What's up with Ms. Eun?

Will she come or not?

Why are you here so early?

Class doesn't start until later.

I came early to study for
the English vocabulary test.

What happened to the new student?

Oh, her?

I'll find her a personal tutor.

She must learn Korean first.

That's good.

How long will you stay here for?

- What?
- You must sleep at home,

and see a doctor if you're sick.

I don't know what's going on,

but it's better
you rent a place to stay.

I'll take care of it.

Go and study.

You never listen to others.

Find a tutor for the old lady soon.

So she can start learning
as soon as possible.

May I ask...

who it is?

I haven't told my mother yet.

I'll ask her, then tell you.

[Ms. Oh Yeon Doo]

The call cannot be connected.

Hello?

Ms. Oh.

It's Old School's headmaster.

It's so hard to reach you.

Hello, sir.

I called, but you didn't pick up.

I couldn't seem to reach you at all,

so I used the school landline.

You almost got hit
by a kick scooter.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

It's strange, though.

I didn't get any of your calls.

You didn't?

I called 3 or 4 times.

There must be a reason.

I called...

to ask you for a favor.

A favor?

A special student
came by the school.

Do you think
you could teach her Korean?

It's a private class
after the regular hours,

so you needn't mind your mother.

Oh, well,

I feel terrible
for not calling you back.

It wouldn't be right
for me to refuse.

I'll take the student.

Thank you.

Can we meet in person...

to discuss the details?

Yes, sure.

Goodbye.

I couldn't seem to reach you at all,

so I used the school landline.

I called 3 or 4 times.

Why were there no missed calls?

[Headmaster]

[Headmaster, number blocked]

What?

When did I block his number?

I don't think I ever did this.

Did someone fiddle with my phone?

I was just about to get out
to bring it to you.

But why would Ms. Jang...

Why is she always involved...

when something like this happens?

I like how it's neat,
clean, and spacious.

And it's packed even on a weekday.

Do many of your clients
wear our clothes?

Yes, they do.

I've been interested
in driving ranges myself...

which is why I sometimes come by...

to get a few pointers
from owners of large clubs.

What could I possibly
give you pointers on...

when you operate
a much bigger business?

Anyway, Chairman Gong is over there.

Is he here?

I thought you were accompanying him.

He came by earlier
and is at the VIP area.

Really?

Gosh. They say that ba*ls land
as expected for pro golfers...

while they land as worried
for amateurs.

Not having time for the golf club...

rendered me back
to being an amateur.

Thanks to constant practice,

your swings are like those of a pro.

By the way, it's about the gifts
for my grandchildren.

Will there be no hitches?

Right. Well, transferring shares
over the course of ten years...

will maximize the reduction of tax
that must be paid.

However, if you plan
on a one-time transfer,

you'll have to be aware
of the burdening tax.

Saving money on tax
shouldn't be an issue...

when it's a gift
for my grandchildren.

I should pay what I owe
and proudly transfer them.

Dad.

A transfer of shares?

Are you thinking about
transferring company shares...

to Tae Kyung's child and Ji Myung's?

I was looking into it as a gift
to celebrate their arrival.

How could you even consider this?

You're stingy with them
even with your eldest son,

but you're willing to give them
to your unborn grandchildren?

Chun Myung!

Calm down. It's not like the papers
have already been signed.

How could I possibly calm down?

It's upsetting, Dad.

What the...

Grandma, it's me.

Right. Chun Myung, is that you?

It's not like you
to call at this hour.

Dad's planning something huge
behind your back.

What? Something huge?

He's going to transfer
company shares...

to Tae Kyung's child
as soon as it's born.

What?

[Pro Golfer Kwon Tae Hwa
Autograph Signing Event]

The line goes
all the way out the door.

I informed them...

that only those with tickets
could get an autograph,

but they're willing to wait
just to see his face.

I'm glad.

Let's persuade Mr. Kwon
into signing a few more later.

Got it, Ms. Gong.

What are you doing here?

I swung by to say hi.

Mr. Kwon likes me, you see.

You're always so friendly,
and you have many acquaintances.

The atmosphere is nice,

and people seem thrilled.

It was a success.

It's too early to call it that.

We should remain on our toes
until we wrap up the event.

Are you not feeling well?

Why don't you sit down and rest?

You should be taking it easy.

Don't acknowledge it.

I won't tell a soul,
so you needn't worry.

Ji Myung.

It's been on my mind that your
husband doesn't know about that.

I want you to tell him
before it's too late.

[My wife]

What could he
have been referring to?

It's not like I can ask her.

Yes, Grandmother.
This is a surprise.

Sorry?

The first scan for defects
came back clean.

Real is in good health.

I'm glad.

I'm always grateful, Dr. Gong.

You're done for the day.

You'll come in another time
for the second round of testing.

Sure.

Shouldn't you get going
since we're done here?

You'll be getting off work soon.
We should head in together.

Head home first.
I'm fully booked today.

I see. I guess there's nothing
I can do about it.

I'll see you later at home.

You can send in my next patient.

The afternoon shift is over.

Is that so? I wasn't aware of that.

What? But you asked if your wife
was your last patient of the day.

Fine, I get it.

What was that?

Did you lie because you didn't
want to head home with me?

Stop that, will you?
I won't ever think...

that you have feelings for me.

Never be mistaken.

Anyway, we'll go home together.

Tae Kyung,

it's bad.

[Ilmiri Gold Braised Chicken]

Should time fly this fast?

Maybe I should ask her
to extend her hours.

Dae Sang.

What? Oh, right.

You did great work today.

Dae Sang, I...

What is it?
Do you have something to say?

Would it be possible to get paid...

every week?

Every week?

Yes, I'm in need for cash, you see.

Right, don't worry.
I'll make that happen for you.

Thanks, Dae Sang.

I'm so glad I got to work with you.

There's no need to thank me.

I'll get going, then.

- Have a good one.
- Sure.

[Ilmiri Gold Braised Chicken]

Oh, no. How am I going to pay her?

Bong Nim doesn't know
I offered her 20 dollars an hour.

I'm sorry to say this,
but we're on a break.

Hello.

I'm Gong Yu Myung,
an intern at Joy Entertainment.

Are you Oh Soo Kyum's father?

What? I guess I'm close enough.

Why are you asking for my Soo Kyum?

We'd like her to sign a contract
with the agency.

Wait, a contract?

That's right.
Soo Kyum's social media account...

displayed many unique ideas
which are being received well.

She has great potential
as an influencer.

An influencer?

You must know about YouTubers...

who have become celebrities
thanks to their videos...

A celebrity?

As if that's appropriate
for a seven-year-old.

- Forget it and leave.
- Mr. Oh, please.

Could I at least
meet Soo Kyum in person?

Take your nonsense elsewhere
and leave.

- Get going.
- But sir!

Please leave.

Who are you trying to con?

What the...

Mr. Oh!

The man won't even listen.

He thinks it's nonsense?

As if that would discourage me.

I'll be back.

[Joy Entertainment Gong Yu Myung]

Gong Yu Myung?

Joy Entertainment?

This is the company
where I failed a job interview.

Did this woman
want to sign with Soo Kyum?

Yes.

She talked all sorts of nonsense...

saying she could be a celebrity.

Just because
she gets a lot of likes...

doesn't mean she can be a celebrity.

That's not true. It can
actually turn into a money business.

Hey, you're a dad.
Come to your senses.

You don't want
to give her false hope.

She may seem nice on the outside,
but she could be a fraud.

Where's Soo Kyum?

She's playing with her friends
in the playground.

Just go bring her over.

What if she runs into the woman?

I'll be right back.

There you are, Oh Soo Kyum.

Guys, we shouldn't play
with a kid without a mom.

But you don't have
an aunt and a great uncle.

Not having a mom is just the same.

That's not the same at all.

An aunt and a great uncle
can't be a mom.

What's the difference then?

You can live without them,

but you can't live without a mom.

You can't even smell your mom.

Smell my mom?

Yes.

Like what I smell
when my mom gives me a big hug.

Even when I get upset and sad,

I feel better once my mom hugs me.

That's not the smell of your mom.

The smell is not from your mom,

but from the fabric softener
your family use.

Who on earth are you?

Me?

I'm her best friend.

Do you not have a mom?

No.

Then you can borrow mine.
I have two moms.

What?

You lend your mom?

Yes. Now she has a mom.

Her mom is a lot prettier, richer,

and more fashionable than yours.

So stop making fun of her
for not having a mom.

Otherwise, her mom will come
and teach your mom a lesson.

Leave my mom alone.

Let's go.

Do you really have two moms?

Yes. One passed away,

and I met the other when I was ten.

So your mom also passed away.

Why? Did your mom too?

No. My dad keeps saying...

my mom passed away,

but that's a lie.

How do you know?

When my dad lies to me,

he avoids my eyes.

Don't tell him that I know though.

You sound so clever, Soo Kyum.

What? How do you know my name?

I'm here because I want
to sign a contract with you.

I really liked the photos
you took with your dolls.

Here.

I'm glad to meet you.
My name is Gong Yu Myung.

[Joy Entertainment Gong Yu Myung]

How much am I getting paid?

My gosh, I really like you.

How much do you want?

Well...

- What about 100 dollars?
- What?

Is that too much?

Then 50 dollars?

We can give you
a lot more than that. Don't worry.

I'll make sure
to convince your dad next time.

Give me a call when you're bored.

I'll see you again.

Soo Kyum.

Didn't you see anyone strange?

How did you know?

Ta-da. Look at this.

[Joy Entertainment Gong Yu Myung]

Gong Yu Myung?

I can't believe her.

Soo Kyum, is everything all right?

What did she say?
Didn't she say anything strange?

No.

What's her deal?

Dad, that lady is quite a dresser.

I really like her.

What?

Have you lost your mind, Chan Sik?

You want to give the company shares
to that thing in the annex?

Are you in your right mind?

Honey, what does that mean?

Do you want to give
the company shares to Yeon Doo?

It's not for Yeon Doo.
It's a gift for our grandchild.

When Chun Myung was born,

you gave us gold bars as a gift.

That's not the same!

The company shares are
nothing like gold bars.

Why would you give them
to Tae Kyung's child? Are you crazy?

I'm not giving them
only to Tae Kyung's child.

Ji Myung's child
will get the same gift.

Dad, we don't get the company shares
if we don't have kids?

We're already sad
that we can't get pregnant.

How can you
play favorites like that?

Father, this makes me really sad.

How can you leave us out like that?

Do you find it upsetting...

that my grandchildren are
getting some company shares?

Why are you being quiet?

You don't care
because you're getting some anyway?

Take it however you like.

Then are you okay with Tae Kyung
getting the company shares?

- That's not what I'm saying.
- Enough.

Anyway, Chan Sik,
just forget about...

the company shares.

No, I can't do that.

What did you say?

This isn't just
about the company shares.

It's about how we accept Tae Kyung
as one of our family.

Will you keep
walking over Tae Kyung...

even after Real is born?

Will you keep being like that
even when the kid is around?

Hey, Chan Sik.

Think of our family photos.

We take them every year...

without In Ok and Tae Kyung
because you insist.

We've lived together
for about 20 years already.

When will you treat them
as family members?

What's the big deal
about family photos?

Anyway, I can't let you
give his child...

any company shares.

You can't take them away
from my grandchildren.

- Tae Kyung.
- What?

Hey, I'm glad you're here.

Did you ask your dad
for the company shares?

Did you use your child
that's not even born yet...

to ask for what you don't deserve?

Yeon Doo, wait in the annex.

Don't go anywhere. She's the one
who caused all this trouble.

That brat and the baby in her belly
are the main culprits...

behind the whole mess.

That brat? The main culprit?

How could you say
such things to her?

What's wrong with saying that?

I took her in when she almost
had to live as a single mom,

but she's just being ungrateful.

A single mom?

What's wrong
with being a single mom?

You can be like that only to me!

Please treat her with some respect.

You took her in?

When you almost ruined my life,
she's the one who took me in.

Thanks to her, I could put up...

with this family until now.

How dare you...
You must be out of your mind.

You darn brat. I thought
you were behaving yourself.

But you're finally
showing your true colors.

If you say anything mean to her,

I won't let it slide.

- How dare you...
- I'll take the company shares.

Actually, that's not enough.

I want them all.

No, I want you
to give me the right...

to manage the company.

You freak.

Are you serious?
Do you even hear yourself?

- Chun Myung.
- Who do you think you are?

- Please don't do this.
- Let go of me!

- Mother.
- What? Why?

What you did to my son
and daughter-in-law today...

is a big mistake.

I will never forget it.

What? I can't believe this.

Wait. It's nothing new that
Grandmother treats me like that.

What are you so upset about?

Hey, come here.

Let's have it out here and now.

Wait, Tae Kyung.
You better make yourself scarce.

Listen to me.

Where are you going? Come back.

Calm down, Chun Myung. Please.

- What?
- If you want to grab a throat,

I'm all yours.

You can punch me if you want.

What are you up to this time?

Get out of my way
before you get hurt.

Why are you doing
all this to Tae Kyung...

when you can't do it to me?

Who said
you could treat him like that?

Do you even know
how he looks down on me?

You don't know
anything about our family.

Stay out of this, okay?

This is just ridiculous.

Chun Myung, did you get hurt?
Are you all right?

Why would I get hurt?
That freak can't mess with me.

I guess this is what the fortune teller
was talking about.

She said we'd be put
on the back burner...

if we didn't have any children.

But still,

how could Father treat
his eldest son like this?

I'm so sad
that I can't even see your face.

Things have always been like this
since that jerk showed up.

He was smart, intelligent,
and tenacious.

So Dad played favorites with him.

But you're nice,

kind, and easygoing.

Soo Jung,
we can't take this anymore.

We never know what they will do
using their child.

You saw Ji Myung earlier.

She keeps her mouth shut
when things are in her favor.

Let's have a baby,
no matter what it takes.

I thought of an idea.

Please trust me and follow me.

I can trust whatever you say.

Okay.

But let's keep it a secret
from everyone...

until we really get pregnant.

Okay. We can do it.

Honey. We don't need shares.

Let's not take it.

Us, Tae Kyung, and Yeon Doo.
Let's all not take it...

and pretend like it never happened.

Why?

Do you feel so bad
that Tae Kyung was hurt?

It's not that.

There's no reason
to make trouble in the family.

I worked harder than anyone
for this company.

My child will be rewarded for that.

Why would I not accept it?

But what about Tae Kyung?

He didn't do anything
for the company.

Fine. Let's say you're right.

But I don't want Olive...

to be involved in something so messy
like fighting over shares.

I don't want Olive to learn...

about fighting with family
like you and Chun Myung.

That's all part of life.

We can't only show our baby
good things.

Mother.

Oh, Yeon Doo.

I told Tae Kyung
to stay somewhere else for now.

I'm sorry for acting on my own
without asking you first.

No. You did a good job.

If he kept staying here,

it would've been
uncomfortable for him.

You must be
really worried about him.

No.

Strangely, I'm not worried.

I've never seen Tae Kyung
fight back like that before.

He always used to run away
and hide in the end.

Seeing him demanding
all of the shares...

is both surprising and amusing.

He won't...

back down anymore.

He'll do anything he needs to
for you and Real.

That made me relieved.

Tell Tae Kyung to sleep elsewhere
just for tonight.

If he comes home,
Grandmother will call for him.

Okay.

Thanks, Yeon Doo.

You and Real changed Tae Kyung.

Let's go and rest.

Okay.

Sorry, Mother.

[Call, Husband, Uncle, Mom]

[Tae Kyung. Are you okay?]

Why did I get so angry?

Tae Kyung. Are you okay?

Mother's holding up well,

so don't worry.

Stay out
and don't come home for tonight.

I'm back again.

I feel comfortable
now that I'm alone.

I feel comfortable...

now that I'm alone, but...

You took her in?

When you almost ruined my life,
she's the one who took me in.

Thanks to her, I could put up...

with this family until now.

I'm sure he's fine.

Instead of waiting for three months,

let's wrap things up
as soon as we're ready.

Tae Kyung.

Do you...

have feelings...

for me?

You've gone crazy,

Gong Tae Kyung.

Why isn't Tae Kyung back?

Is he ignoring me?

Mother. Real is listening.

The baby should know
what kind of person its father is.

I asked Tae Kyung
to stay out for now.

That pathetic boy.

How could he leave his wife
and baby and run away?

It's just like how he used
to leave his mom and run away...

whenever something happened.

How irresponsible.

Don't talk about him like that.

He didn't leave on his own
because he was irresponsible.

It was for Mother. He didn't want
to cause more trouble.

- What?
- Be kind to him, Grandmother.

If you stop pushing him away,

he'd be very good to you too.

Oh, there's no way.

Would such a good guy
demand management rights like that?

He didn't mean it. He only said that
because he was angry.

How many times
does he need to tell you...

that he's not interested
in your inheritance?

If I were him, it'd feel
like I was talking to a wall.

Why don't you ever believe him?

He must feel so frustrated!

Yeon Doo. Have you gone insane?

You should respect your elders.
Why are you getting so riled up?

Because I'm frustrated.
It feels like I'm suffocating.

After living in this house,

I can completely understand
what he had to go through.

Why do you all not know him
as much as I do?

Stop tormenting him!

Oh, my goodness.

Nice!

What?

These two are attacking me together.

There was nothing wrong
about what Yeon Doo said.

When did Tae Kyung
ever ask for an inheritance?

You, Chun Myung, and Ji Myung
doubted him and got all defensive.

Greed comes out of nowhere.

Do you know
how nasty parents can be?

Once the baby pops out,

no one knows how they'll change,

saying it's for the baby's sake.

Where's my phone?

Call Ms. Jang.

Have her come over.

Not again.

Why do you always get Ms. Jang
to handle Tae Kyung?

She might be our secretary,

but what did she do to deserve this?

You don't know
what you're talking about.

Ms. Jang hasn't
given up on Tae Kyung yet.

What?

He left home and his wife.

Find him and bring him home.

I need him to sign a paper saying
he won't take what isn't his.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll drop by work first,
then get him in the afternoon.

Hey. My dear daughter.

You look lovely.

Why are you so dressed up today?

I'm dressed as usual.

I'll be home late.
I'm meeting Tae Kyung.

She said she wouldn't fall for him.

Why are you doing the dishes?

I wanted to vent some stress...

and give the helper a break.

You were so cool earlier.

Mom looked ecstatic too.

So what if she did?

It didn't change
Tae Kyung's situation.

Yeon Doo.

You don't know
that Grandma told Ms. Jang...

to bring him home, do you?

What?

Ms. Jang's sly and cunning.

She's so malicious.

Grandma says
she hasn't given up on Tae Kyung.

What?

I thought you should know
if you're to protect him.

I'm totally rooting for you two.

I'll spy on Grandma
for you sometimes.

I have to get ready for work now.

Bye.

It's true.

Yeon Doo talked right back
at your grandma.

She did?

Yes.

"How wronged must you have felt,"

"now I see just how oppressed
he was in this house,"

"why do you all know him
even less than I do?"

"Will you stop harassing him?"

Your grandma was lost for words.

She said everything
I'd always wanted to say,

and the weight
I'd had for decades was lifted.

I don't worry about you at all now.

You have Yeon Doo by your side.

Okay, Mom.
I'm busy and can't talk long.

Bye.

I can almost see how it went.

Tae Kyung, let's meet.

Tell me where you are.
I'll come to you.

Hee, please look at me

You are

Can you pay me weekly?

Ouch, that's hot.

I almost burned my hair.

Twenty dollars an hour each week.

Where am I to get that money?

What was that?

- What was that noise?
- Hey.

Gosh. What happened?

What a bad omen.

Why did that fall and break?

It must've fallen to break itself
so we could take...

another one with Tae Kyung.

Oh, gosh. If we could
take a portrait with him too,

that would be great.

Shall we do that?

I'll ask Yeon Doo and Tae Kyung.

Put it in Yeon Doo's room
since it's empty right now.

Okay.

An empty room.

Bong Nim.

How about we rent out
Yeon Doo's room?

Don't be silly.

Where will Yeon Doo
and Tae Kyung stay when they visit?

Cut out the nonsense
and get ready for work.

[Ilmiri Gold Braised Chicken]

Dae Sang?

Yes, it's me.

Do you not recognize my new look?

Why are you so late?

I've been waiting for 15 minutes.

Open the door.

What? The door?

It won't take long. Sorry.

Darn it.

Hee. Did you have breakfast?

Shall I make you chicken porridge?

Thanks, but I don't have
an appetite.

I must finish my work and then dash.

You're not sick, are you?

Shall I get you some medicine?

I'm fine. You don't have to worry.

Hee, how do I look today?

I dressed the way I used to
when we dated.

You look great, then and today.

Do I?

Then how about
catching a movie this evening...

Is straightening your hair
and putting on a suit...

why you were 15 minutes late?

What?

I must ask, just in case.

You didn't dress up for me, did you?

What? Oh, no. Of course not.

Good.

Whether we dated or not in the past,

I wish...

you could keep work
apart from pleasure.

If you'd dressed like this for me,

I'd have felt so uncomfortable,
I'd have quit right away.

- Hee, it's not that, so...
- Fine.

And as promised, I'd like you...

to pay me each week.

What was that about?

Did she reject me
before I even asked?

Yes, I got rejected.

[Contacts: Gong Tae Kyung]

[Kalucia Hotel,


What's this, Father?

It's where Tae Kyung is.

Go and get him.

Why me? I don't want to.

Act like the older brother you are.

Why do you
dislike Tae Kyung so much?

Father. Why do you
coddle him so much?

You did ever since he moved in.

You always compared us
and scolded me.

Why was that?

I did it for your sake.

I wanted you to do better.

I guess I hoped for too much.

I'm sorry if I hurt you.

Say what you want,
but I won't go to him.

Do as you're told.
Don't act like a fool.

Yes, I am a fool.

I might be a fool,

but I'm your son.

Why you...

Sit back down.

This is where Tae Kyung is. Get him.

Ms. Eun told me to bring him home.

Good.

I need you to drag him home for me.

She hasn't given up on Tae Kyung?

How could that be?

I lied to Tae Kyung
about being infertile.

I said I can't have children.

Once we're married,
I'll have as many kids...

as it takes to keep him.

Give up the baby.

Tae Kyung and I will raise it...

in the best conditions
so it lacks nothing.

I'd forgotten what she's like.

Hello, Mother.

Tae Kyung?

[Kalucia Hotel]

What are you doing here?

Ms. Eun sent me.

She wants me to bring you home.

When I go home
is up to me to decide.

Why did you come all this way
when a phone call would've sufficed?

Because on top of Ms. Eun's request,

I also had a reason to see you.

You did?

It's about Ms. Oh.

What about Ms. Oh?

It's been a while
since I saw you at a hotel.

This feels like old times.

What about Ms. Oh
must you talk about?

I don't know how to put this, but...

I'll be just fine, so spit it out.

Ms. Oh...

seems to have
a complicated love life.

What?

Your sister-in-law...

somehow came across a text
that was sent to Ms. Oh.

He loves her,

he can't forget about her,

and he wishes to keep
seeing each other.

That's what she read.

Shocking, isn't it?

Are you seriously fussing over...

something that isn't a big deal?

What?

I'm fully aware of her ex-boyfriend.

She even showed me the text
he had sent her.

How is that a problem?

It's just a text
from a crazy ex-boyfriend.

Right. I'm glad.

I was worried about you, that's all.

Ms. Oh?

Mr. Gong, have you been well?

I brought you some fresh clothes.

Gosh, Ms. Oh.

Ms. Jang's sly and cunning.

She's so malicious.

Grandma says
she hasn't given up on Tae Kyung.

Mr. Gong, can you leave us?

What?

Give us the room
so that I can talk to Ms. Jang.

But...

But...

Why are you in his hotel room
at this hour?

Ms. Eun ordered me
to bring him home.

Please don't get the wrong idea.

Nothing happened between us.

No one suggested
that anything happened.

Why is it
that you conduct yourself...

in a way that can be misleading?

You text him...

and join him for drinks.

This time around,

I found you in his hotel room.

Tae Kyung and I are friends.

Ms. Eun said
a matter occurred at home,

and as a worried friend...

Don't lie.

What?

You're not here as a friend.

Ms. Jang,

you still haven't given up on him.

Why would you think...

that I still want us to be together?

I heard that Ms. Eun confirmed it.

I guess word traveled
all the way to you.

So what if I haven't
given up on him?

You obviously have.

What?

"I think we might be able..."

"to wrap things up between us
sooner than we thought."

How do you know about that?

Did you read Tae Kyung's text?

Was it you who also
fiddled with my phone?

Don't be a drama queen.

I came across the text...

while I was visiting him
at his office.

Now, it's my turn to ask.

Do you truly love Tae Kyung?

What?

I shouldn't have bothered to ask.

If you did love him,

you wouldn't have spoken
about ending things.

If you're going to leave him,
make it quick.

Unlike you,
I love Tae Kyung for real.

- Gosh.
- Hello.

Thanks for this.

I locked myself out.

Thank you.

So please.

If you care for Tae Kyung
in any way,

you'll end things quickly.

Is this a movie you're filming?

Talk about being childish.

What was that?

Fine, you got us. We argued.

I suggested
we split up out of spite,

but Tae Kyung said
it was preposterous.

In no way will he split up with me.

So...

stop trying to get in between
Tae Kyung and me.

That unwanted obsession you have...

should be thrown out as well.

- What?
- Tae Kyung...

is mine.

If you covet what's mine again,

I will also see red.

I also truly love Tae Kyung.

Get out.

Didn't you hear me?

Get out this instant.

Leave Tae Kyung's room.

What you said to Ms. Jang just now.
What did you actually mean?

What?

You said you loved me.

I asked what you meant by it.

Oh, that?

Don't worry.

I'm not reading into
your kindness for me.

What kind of a friend would I be...

if I didn't help
another friend in need?

It's why I told her a white lie.

A friend?

I really hope
that you find someone nice.

If you're going to be with someone,

be with someone decent
who isn't like Ms. Jang.

You most certainly deserve it.

I vouch for that as your friend.

I get it, so you can get going.

What?

I told you to go.

Right.

What was that about?

Did I overstep?

Maybe I should apologize.

Tae Kyung is mine.

If you covet what's mine again,

I will also see red.

I also truly love Tae Kyung.

You won't let me win, is that it?

As if I'd let the likes of you
take Tae Kyung from me!

Yeon Doo, take care.

I'm going abroad.

I'm sorry for everything.
I loved you.

The phone is turned off.
Please leave a message...

Your phone is turned off,
so I'm leaving you a text.

You know Oh Yeon Doo, right?

Once you check this message,
please give me a call.

What is this?

Gosh, I can't do this.

I have to go apologize.

I'll see you in my room
during lunchtime.

You can look forward
to something special.

Se Jin, please answer my call.

I broke up with my girlfriend.

You're all I have now, Se Jin.

I miss you so much. I love you.

I won't ask you to marry me.
Or ask you to come to the US.

Please, just don't say
we should break up.

Is Oh Yeon Doo's ex-boyfriend...

Kim Jun Ha?

Yeon Doo.

Yes.

Let's...

break the contract.

What did you say?

The contract.

Let's end it right away.

[The Real Has Come!]

I'm in love with someone else.

- What?
- This is the right thing to do.

I should do this.

Hang out with me.

Let me be honest with you.

I don't want Yeon Doo
to get the wrong idea.

Tae Kyung? You're so busted.

I'll find out who she is.

She's Ms. Oh Yeon Doo
who will teach you how to read.

I want you to leave this house.

Pardon?

I'll pray with my heart...

that you won't feel lonely...

living in that house.

Take care, Tae Kyung.
