She's having contractions!
-Contractions?
-But it's not due for a week.
It has a temper.
The brat has no patience.
I mean the little one.
That's mine.
You're strangling me!
Who cares if this is a woman's?
No one would notice.
Of course they would.
-Bring the car around.
-Got it!
-Is her doctor waiting?
-I haven't heard back.
I shouldn't have sent our driver home.
Did you have any dreams?
No.
This isn't the time to talk about dreams.
But there couldn't be a better,
more joyous time than this.
Why is it coming into the world
a week before it's due though?
For what reason?
What's the date on the lunar calendar?
-Put some socks on.
-I'm good.
You'll graze your feet. That's not okay.
I said I'm okay with it.
It's not like it'll take ten minutes.
That reminds me!
I ordered a wheelchair,
just for this occasion.
Where is it?
Where could it be?
You said it was delivered.
I did?
Yes, yesterday.
Wasn't it Driver Choi?
Could it be in the trunk of the car?
Don't ask me.
I didn't tell him to do that.
Hang in there a little longer.
How about a piggyback ride?
And who would carry her?
-Can you walk?
-Yes.
-My phone!
-Let's go.
-Where's my phone?
-As if that's important.
We shouldn't forget the hospital bag.
Right. That's what we need the most.
It's in the closet.
At a time like this,
get a hold of yourself.
The wheelchair must be
in the trunk of my car.
We should hurry up.
Watch your back!
What is it? Talk to me.
-Cramps.
-Cramps?
You chose this moment to have cramps?
Your father has the cramps
for Christ's sake.
Can't you walk?
My stomach's suddenly k*lling me.
Ji-a, aren't you craving
my homemade burgers?
And some fried chicken
and fermented kimchi gimbap?
Of course I am.
But you don't stop by or call either.
It's because Mom has been busy.
I'll gladly pick you up myself.
Your mom would say no to keep you slim.
Ji-a, dinner's ready.
-Are you going somewhere?
-I'm sorry, but can you take me to Dad's?
Emptiness.
You come to me straight
In the form of freshly cleansed sunlight.
Is it diarrhea?
Not fully.
We should just stay home.
God's telling us not to go.
We'll only make Song Yuan uncomfortable.
Is that so?
Even I would find it stifling.
We should quietly wait at home.
Still…
Shouldn't we be present at the scene?
It's not some crime scene, you know.
You're being snappier than usual.
Snappy?
-You're snapping at everything I say.
-I'm carrying on the conversation.
We've been together for almost 40 years.
I know what that looks like.
I also know when you're being sarcastic.
You're one to talk.
Must you ruin a good day?
Right?
It sure is a good day.
One filled with joy.
I can't contain my excitement.
What will the child be like?
-Are you having regular contractions?
-No, not yet.
I don't know.
-Yes, Dad.
-Are you on your way?
-Are you still on the road?
-Yes.
How's Song Yuan?
-Is she in pain?
-Yes.
-We'll stay at home and pray.
-Sure thing.
Your mother doesn't want
to make things uncomfortable for her.
Did you dream of anything?
Not really.
-Is that a no or a yes?
-A no.
Again with the dreams?
Hang up already so he can drive.
Safety first, remember?
-I'll hang up then.
-Sure.
-And drive safely.
-Got it.
My advice is to focus your mind elsewhere.
Stop thinking about how much it hurts
and focus on something funny
like a comedy program.
Thinking about Bada's conception
will take your mind off things--
That hurts! Why the hell did you pinch me?
Text us once you get there.
Let us know when you go
into the delivery room.
Got it.
You silly old man. Think before you talk.
But I didn't cross any lines.
You should know about the real me
before you go.
I already do.
No, you don't.
You may be aware of youth,
but not what comes with old age.
I now know what love truly is
and what it really feels like.
Please, protect my dignity.
Forever.
Learn the real me today
and end your feelings for me.
Is Ji-a washing up?
She isn't answering my calls.
I just dropped her off
at her father's place.
Why?
I'm still driving, ma'am.
-Go back and get Ji-a.
-Sorry?
-Get her out of that house.
-Why?
-Don't ask questions and just do it.
-Sure.
Who's she?
Didn't your mom tell you?
She's your dad's girlfriend.
Grandma, don't play jokes on me.
This isn't a joke.
Why don't you tell her yourself?
Get lost!
My puppy must be hungry.
More so now that I'm here.
All I have to do is grill the patty.
Please don't forget the avocado.
As if I would.
Avocado, lettuce, and a tomato slice.
Where's Dad?
He has a dinner meeting.
Does he drink all the time
now that we're not here?
Of course not.
Ms. Sa asked me to take Ji-a home.
-Ji-a.
-Why?
Can't I have my burger?
She said to come right away.
It must be urgent.
I'll be back some other time, Grandma.
Have a pleasant night, ma'am.
Take care, my puppy.
You too.
You were in there forever.
How long it takes me
to do whatever with my hair
is none of your business.
As if I actually care.
Was someone here?
Are you losing your hearing?
I was hoping for some entertainment.
Ji-a came by.
How will you explain to her
that you stole her dad away?
I'm bracing myself.
She's quite feisty for her age.
She gets that from her mother.
And she was always Yu-sin's top priority.
When it comes to her,
he's foolishly helpless.
So would Ji-a accept this?
She would throw a fit at the least.
Once that happens,
you'd be kicked out of here, Fish Head.
-Is that so?
-Yes.
Nothing in this world is guaranteed.
Exactly.
One's life can take unexpected turns.
And stop calling me Fish Head.
-I can call you what I want.
-Fine, Dongchimi.
Dongchimi.
Isn't it about time we made dongchimi?
Make sure that it's delicious
so we can enjoy noodles with it.
-Do you have a headache or feel dizzy?
-I'm okay.
Things won't begin until after midnight.
She hasn't even begun to dilate.
Dilate?
Could Ji-a be injured?
I doubt it.
If she were, Ms. Sa would have told us.
You should text her later.
I'm sorry about this. It's my manager.
Yes?
Hye-ryung, I need you here.
Someone bumped into your car.
In the parking lot?
Yes.
While you were parked?
Some drunk old man ran into me.
I'll be right there.
-Is she hurt?
-I'll have to see.
Let me come with you.
-Excuse us.
-Sure thing.
Take your purse with you.
I might go to the restroom.
I said I'd take you home tomorrow.
Can you check
if Professor Park is doing all right?
No news is good news.
I'll look into it though.
-Stop worrying about him and--
-How can I not?
I bet you never worried about me.
-Just go.
-That's what you always say.
You look pretty.
Don't wear too much makeup
for the wedding. It doesn't suit you.
Don't try to micromanage me.
-I never agreed to a marriage.
-I'm being attentive, not controlling.
The woman's side usually sets a date.
The faster, the better.
Let's not drag this out.
Ga-bin, I won't let you get hurt
from now on.
-Did she leave?
-Yes.
The bill's already been paid.
-By Ms. Lee?
-Yes.
Press one to record your message…
Are you dead or alive?
Did you go on a trip to clear your head?
Don't do anything stupid
for the sake of your children.
Someone of your caliber…
will find another relationship in no time.
You have a melodic voice,
a good figure, and a handsome face.
You also have a respectable job.
"Respect…"
The children and I
had the utmost respect for you.
I just don't know
how things ended up like this.
That darn affair, right?
Anyway, keep living your life.
That's your best option.
"This too shall pass."
That's what I told myself
while coping with this whole ordeal.
Don't do anything
to worry our children anymore.
Our family is the other way around.
In other families, it's the kids
who cause grievances for the parents.
You know,
even I would…
Actually, forget it.
Don't drown yourself in alcohol
no matter how heartbroken you are.
I guess
you now know
how I feel.
You should look forward to
a special gift on your birthday.
One that money can't buy.
But I'm a materialistic person.
On top of a tangible one.
I'm only joking.
Will I be getting your love then?
A gift that comes from the heart.
Now I'm curious.
-Please tell me.
-Tell me
Tell me the truth
Tell me how you feel about me
That song's ancient!
Whether you love me or not
And how big that love is
Show me how much you love me.
-You first.
-I'm getting a tattoo.
A tattoo?
When you're a doctor of all things?
You specialize in mental health.
I'll get your name tattooed
on my stomach or thigh.
-The inside of your thigh or the outside?
-The inside.
Then it's to hide it from people.
You're embarrassed.
Forehead it is then.
I'll get one that says
"Shin Yu-sin is mine."
No, wait. "Sa Pi-young is Yu-sin's."
Don't. It'll only hurt.
And that I don't want.
I don't want my love to be in pain either.
I'll be fine.
I can manage anything
as long as I have you. You know that.
I sure do. Anyway, I'm touched.
Well, I mean it.
You can decide on the font.
Forget it. What if you go in
for surgery as an old man?
What will the doctor and nurses think?
They'll think that you've been around.
They will see me as a romantic
since it's my wife's name.
People will stare at the pool too.
Either way, it won't age nicely.
Is that so?
You wanting one is enough.
I can feel your love for me.
How about a deeper kiss?
Babe, let's dance.
A MI
-Are you here?
-Yes. Where's the car?
It's with the valet.
-Where's A Mi?
-She left after Yu-sin called.
What can I get you? Water or sikhye?
Neither.
You must have had dinner plans.
Why did you let Ji-a come here?
She came by unannounced.
You told her to come by anytime.
Watch that tone of yours.
You're not clueless,
so tell me what your intentions are.
-My intentions?
-Did you want to hurt her
by letting her see A Mi?
Being drunk doesn't excuse ill-manners.
You're the adult here!
I'm too shocked to put this in words.
You know how sensitive teenagers are--
Yet, you still went through
with the divorce.
As if she wouldn't know.
Especially given how smart she is.
She's still an innocent child.
And that doesn't justify your actions.
How can she know
when Yu-sin comes by often?
Anyway, she'll find out sooner or later.
-Who are you to butt in?
-How dare you raise your voice at me.
-I'd do worse if--
-You'll hit me?
Me of all people?
Don't you know I'm a simple woman?
No, you're anything but simple.
You'll know once you're my age.
I'll be 60 soon
and I'm not how I used to be.
You should act your age.
Where's your sense of wisdom?
Think from Ji-a's perspective.
Don't say you don't know
because you never had kids.
For nearly 50 years,
you were someone's mother.
You said so yourself.
I only called because I missed her.
From what I hear, the housekeeper is nice,
but she's not a good cook.
I wanted to make her a delicious meal
since I feel bad for her.
But I told you we'd keep the truth
from her for now, didn't I?
You dare try to intimidate
your mother-in-law?
Well, I'm enraged right now.
I'm always the punching bag.
Everyone thinks
they can vent their anger on me.
Is it because I'm a stepmother?
I treated you with respect
throughout my marriage.
As if!
Am I fair game now that you're divorced?
-Don't change the subject.
-I'm not!
Think of it from my perspective too.
Ji-a means more to me than Yu-sin now.
What he did makes me just as sick.
Ever since you moved out,
Ji-a has never come by.
I missed her
and that's all I could think about.
What if she bumped into A Mi?
There are more than
enough lies to tell her.
-Mother!
-I'm not deaf, you know.
-Please stop.
-Stop what?
Your scheming.
We'll talk again once you're sober.
I don't want to deal
with your drunken frenzy.
If Ji-a had found out everything today,
I would have ended it with you.
I'm not the one who had an affair!
Besides, it seems like
you're already done with me.
Be nicer.
Please consider
other people's feelings too.
Don't judge others by your standards.
Your marriage
might have ended in a divorce,
but you married into this family
thanks to me.
After all that we've been through
as a family,
you come here to nitpick
about a silly phone call.
Yelling and glaring at me like that!
I'm the one who should be lost for words.
How do you really feel about him?
-What do you mean?
-About Yu-sin.
What is it that you want to hear?
You'll keep up with this nonsense?
Must I deal with a drunk?
Nonsense is better than lies, is it not?
You're…
crossing many lines today.
Yu-sin told A Mi that
you were his first love.
How does that make you feel?
She probably made it up.
Fish Head is more than capable,
so don't let her deceive you.
Then you shouldn't treat him like that.
You should treat him like your son.
-Is it that important?
-Of course.
Are you saying
I'm allowed to treat you with no respect?
Now that I'm a widow,
you think you can walk all over me.
You brought this on yourself--
Even a fly has its anger.
Don't push your luck.
Thankfully…
I left on my own accord.
If Ji-a manages to drive A Mi away,
Yu-sin will be all yours.
You're crossing lines as you please now.
Ask around.
No one treats their son
as intimately as you.
Have you seen anyone who acts like you?
Being uneducated has me clueless
when it comes to etiquette.
As if that's the issue.
Did women in the past
who never went to school
treat their sons like you do
in front of their daughters-in-law?
It's because you have feelings for him.
How did you keep it all in
and not nitpick for all these years?
It's about time you aged with grace.
You!
Are you proud to be divorced?
You're in no position to come here
and accuse me of such nonsense.
VOICE RECORDING
Keep going, why don't you?
Is this what I get for being nice?
Only those with decent parents
luck out with their spouses.
That sums up Yu-sin's life.
His birth mother never loved him
and his wife stabbed him in the back
-over one mistake.
-It's my back that was stabbed.
One moment of patience
wards off great disaster.
But you couldn't even
let one mistake slide.
What will Ji-a learn?
Nicely said, Mother.
Were you the one who taught him
to step out on his own wife?
He learned from the best.
You married his father
only two years after his mother died.
Did your love really bloom
after he had lost his wife?
This one time,
Director Hong got drunk and asked Father
how it felt to be slapped
by his own wife of all people.
He couldn't imagine it since
he has never been hit by anyone before.
More so because it was Gyeong-suk.
That was Yu-sin's mother, right?
He was amazed that you weren't fired.
I overheard him while serving them coffee.
Father was utterly embarrassed.
If it were me,
I could have been able to relate to A Mi.
You two are the same, aren't you?
They say that nothing
is worse than a person's greed.
So have some shame and know your place.
I hope that was all recorded.
You love foreign soap operas, right?
Ones where daughters-in-law
slap their mothers-in-law.
Why don't we reenact the scene?
Go ahead!
You ungrateful wench.
Is this what I get for talking
Yu-sin's father into letting
Yu-sin marry a nobody like you?
Are you seriously going to hit me?
Is that it?
She called Ji-a over
to get her to meet A Mi.
Where is she?
-All I did was call her.
-And Ji-a came by!
You wanted to shock Ji-a
so that she could drive A Mi away.
What happened here was all recorded.
I'll break your wrist if you touch it!
As if I'd let you touch me.
How dare you of all people do this to me.
How dare I?
Did you hear that?
Please sit down…
-or leave.
-If you got here sooner,
you would have seen me get slapped.
Can you blame me?
After everything you said?
This is exactly why
you never had a second child.
You knew a daughter-in-law
would only mean trouble.
-That's enough.
-You should have
studied acting, not nursing.
-Watch your words.
-This woman was going to use Ji-a
to get what she wants.
By deliberately hurting Ji-a!
"This woman"? Seriously?
Curse at me, why don't you?
Unbelievable.
Ji-a stopped by
while I was washing my hair.
Shut up!
"Shut up"?
SHUT UP YOURSELF!
She barged in here all drunk
just to yell at me
when I was once her mother-in-law.
You don't know half of it.
You're drunk again?
-Is that why you divorced me?
-Then what about you?
You're a mother. What will Ji-a learn?
-Exactly.
-People drink at team dinners.
This job is my livelihood now.
That was your choice, not mine.
Pi-young, you seem exhausted.
Please have a seat.
Would you like a soda?
"Pi-young"?
Call her your sister-wife, why don't you?
Look at you two getting along.
You will never see Ji-a again.
Why not?
I've been a good grandmother to her.
You think we get along?
In my eyes, it's you and Yu-sin
who get along even better.
Even if you aren't family by blood.
Why divorce me
when you care so much about Ji-a?
Must I repeat myself?
You're divorced and living apart.
You can't hide it forever.
Ji-a will find out sooner or later.
That's my concern, not yours!
-You always stay out and drink.
-You have no right to say that!
I may be a b*stard to you,
but I've always been a good father.
Not in the true sense.
If you're that confident,
why didn't you seek Ji-a's permission
before you had that affair?
"Your dad will be seeing
another woman on the side."
It's k*lling you, isn't it?
You want to make me
into a bad parent so badly.
I'm tired of your threats.
Tell the housekeeper to bring her over.
She'll find out anyway,
so let's get it over with.
Shin Yu-sin.
-Don't you dare call her.
-Or what?
You'll never see her again either.
What then?
You're k*lling me.
Have you ever thought about
what I'm going through?
It's the price of your inconsideration.
You deceived your wife
and stepped out on her,
so how can you expect respect?
Is it hard for you?
Does it hurt?
To what extent?
What can I do then?
Water that has trickled down
can't be pulled back up.
How can one's feelings be less than water?
One's feelings aren't tangible.
Water is just water.
Feelings can't be seen,
but they can be felt.
If Ji-a finds out,
her pain might be even greater than mine.
Unlike me, she's tied to you by blood.
On top of that, she adores you.
I know.
This is all because of you.
-You shameless brat.
-That's enough.
Never call me or Ji-a again.
I hope I don't have to.
Pi-young!
I'll leave if you tell me to end this.
It hurts me too…
and I'm ashamed.
What a liar.
-Please get in.
-I'd rather walk.
It's cold and taxis rarely come by
at this hour.
-You had a few drinks too.
-I'm sober now.
I meant what I said.
I'll do what you tell me to do.
It may be too late,
but I'll do as you say.
It's your loss.
Go ahead and age as a single woman.
Unlike you, I'll have a man by my side
who loves me.
Why hasn't he called?
You should call him.
He will call us once the baby's born.
I'm worried that she'll suffer.
There could be complications,
considering her age.
We'll have to leave it up to God.
Should we pray to the skies?
-We should.
-And serve water to the spirits?
If only we had the right bowl.
It's not like we can head home to Daejeon.
We should do things properly.
How about a church?
I doubt there's a temple nearby.
Will I be able to have a safe delivery?
Of course.
Please let me know if the pain's too much.
I'll help you manage.
It's not so bad.
Don't be stubborn. It won't help you.
The pain is manageable.
I'm looking forward to a pretty baby
since both parents are good-looking.
God…
and Buddha.
Why would you be asking
for Buddha at a church?
God.
God…
Is it God with a capital G?
Probably.
I think someone said otherwise.
Then just pray with your inner voice.
Please grant her a safe delivery.
I'm worried sick, you see.
Also let us greet
a healthy baby into this family.
It's what I wish for.
By the way,
I'm sure you're aware of my true desire.
I already have two granddaughters,
so I would love nothing more
than to now have a grandson.
This old man is just being greedy.
All I wish for
is a quick delivery of a healthy baby
whether it's a boy or a girl.
Mark my words, God.
Regardless of what she's saying,
she's secretly hoping that something
will be dangling between that baby's legs.
Your prayer should be sincere.
But it is.
It can't get more serious than this.
And stop calling me old.
I'm not even close to 70.
The way you think is old.
Why are you getting up?
I'm going to pray properly on my own.
MR. SEO
Hello?
It's Seo Ban.
-Right.
-Why did you pay the bill and leave?
-It should have been my treat.
-Maybe next time.
I bet it was steep.
Think of it as my way
of thanking you for all the other meals.
Are you upset about something?
What about Hye-ryung's car?
Her bumper was smashed,
so it needs to be fixed.
She took her manager to the hospital
to get her neck checked out.
Talk about a ruined night.
It started off great.
I especially loved your poem.
It's not like I wrote it.
Writing one takes skill,
but reciting one by heart
is just as beautiful.
It was the best I ever heard.
Do you want me to send it via text?
Actually, I can't be bothered.
Maybe tomorrow.
-Sure thing.
-Good night, then.
-Where are you right now?
-At home.
I came back to our table
as fast as I could
after assessing the situation
and sending them off to the hospital.
I see.
Shouldn't you have gone with them?
Hye-ryung's the reason
why we gathered today.
That way, there would be
no lingering worries.
Who'd be worried in this case?
You, of course.
Is your husband home?
If he is, I'd like to say hello.
Why?
Because we're co-workers.
I once greeted Ms. Boo's husband.
I mean, ex-husband.
He's not around.
We're divorced, you see.
When? Is this true?
-It's been a while.
-Why didn't you tell me?
It's nothing to brag about.
I would have told you
had you asked like today.
If you had known,
would you have taken me out too
for a pity dinner?
I…
I know what you're thinking.
And what would that be?
All three of us are divorced.
The producer, the writer,
and also the show host.
Even I think it's unbelievably funny.
I don't. Anyway, we should meet up.
But you said you were home.
It'll only take me ten minutes by car.
Twenty tops.
You live in Bangbae-dong, right?
-Yes.
-I'll be right over.
To my apartment complex?
I'll call from a nearby shop.
I'm hanging up.
Sure.
VACANT
My baby, you have no idea
how long I've waited for this day.
I'm sure you're just as tired and scared.
But you don't need to be.
Trust your mom
and bravely enter this world.
I'll hold you in my arms.
My baby,
I can't wait to see you.
Will you opt for surgery?
This hardly warrants for one.
These are tears of joy.
I'd rather be the one in pain.
-Really?
-Of course.
Bada.
Aren't you curious about your mom and dad?
We sure are of you.
Should I get the doctor? Are you in labor?
What are you thinking about?
-Nothing much.
-Are you just looking at me then?
What's my least attractive feature?
Eyes, nose, or mouth?
Your eyes, nose, and mouth.
They're all handsome.
Especially your eyes though.
Your gaze to be exact.
What about my gaze?
Well…
a smile flashes
through your eyes at times.
-Really?
-Yes.
That's a new one for me.
It is a compliment, right?
These emotions I'm feeling…
It's all a first for me.
I'm overwhelmed.
How was I?
Please look at me.
Please.
You're mine now.
Now I understand that
what I'm feeling is love.
You should go.
Fine.
I'd like a compliment
in any shape or form though.
Could you spare one?
You're great.
You're a great man.
And I'll stay that way.
You know what I mean, right?
I'm not going to scream.
I won't let my baby hear it.
Mama's all right. Just stay strong for me.
Your dad, grandma, and grandpa
are all waiting.
Let's take a look.
CHURCH
Goodness.
It's me. Has she given birth?
Not yet.
Is she close or not?
I'm afraid it's going to be
a few more hours.
Goodness. Well, it's her first birth.
She must be exhausted.
She's staying strong,
so don't worry too much.
She's not even screaming.
Where are you right now?
Aren't calls forbidden?
I'm in the lobby.
Don't leave her side.
We'll stay up all night,
so call us once she gives birth.
I'm going out for a while.
A friend is in the neighborhood.
-Got it.
-Isn't it too late for a snack?
I can't sleep because I'm hungry.
I only had a small dinner.
As if.
This was the only place open at this hour.
I'm pretty sure
you drank more than usual today.
You sounded hungover on the phone.
-Is this why you came by?
-I bought it on the way here.
HANGOVER SUPPLEMENTS
I'm fine though.
A hot bath made me feel all better.
I'll save it for later.
Eomuktang and a bottle of soju, please.
Sure thing.
Hot soup will ease your stomach.
I'll help myself to this.
Not drinking enough
only keeps me up at night.
I didn't get my fill today.
Likewise.
It's fine.
Didn't Hye-ryung call?
Let's only talk about us.
ABOUT US…
You mean about me, right?
The story behind my divorce.
You're probably curious.
It's the same as Hye-ryung's.
That's absurd.
As if anyone could ever
find fault with you.
-You're too good for him.
-My ex?
Yes.
That depends on how you see it.
You're not like the other men.
-Maybe it's because you never married.
-How is U-ram holding up?
You saw him.
The children have accepted it somewhat,
but I doubt their hearts have mended yet.
They're just too considerate
to show their pain.
I honestly don't get him.
As a man myself, I mean.
They say friends stick together,
so I'm grateful for how you're taking
my side on this matter.
Do you still have feelings for him?
As in love?
As if that's even possible.
We met as seniors in high school
and have been together for 30 years.
It's about time we got sick of each other.
Must married couples be in love?
Can't attachment keep a marriage together
after the love ends?
That's what we women believe.
Our brains say one thing,
but our hearts believe another.
Who's the other woman?
Someone famous enough
for even you to recognize.
It ended though.
They talked about marriage,
but the woman ended it
saying that it wasn't love.
It wasn't mutual.
What was it if it wasn't love?
I guess it was comfort.
It's not easy to find someone
that you can rely on.
So?
Are you taking him back?
No, that's not what I want.
Doesn't this make you uneasy?
-Is that the case for you?
-No.
Things can't possibly
be uncomfortable for us.
Is it over between you two?
Emotionally and in every other aspect?
-Yes.
-What if he wants back in?
He couldn't possibly ask.
You don't seem like your usual self today.
-Please enjoy.
-Thank you.
Dig in.
This isn't the mood for such talks.
So I'll carry on tomorrow.
When we're both sober.
DONG-MA
Yes?
You don't have hot water.
-You're at my place?
-Yes. I got kicked out.
-Why?
-Isn't it obvious?
I want to shower.
Then contact maintenance.
There goes a cab.
I can make it home myself.
It's just around the corner.
You shouldn't keep your brother waiting.
When exactly does U-ram go to bed?
Later now that he's in his teens.
His sister must adore him.
She does.
It's true that the eldest daughter
is an asset.
She's reliable in many aspects.
Does she take after you?
She's more like my mother actually.
To me, you always seem cold.
Me?
I do get cold easily.
Lee Si-eun.
We once met.
Did we go to the same school?
No.
I'll tell you tomorrow.
Are you sure though?
You can talk to me casually.
This is my daughter.
Right. He's the engineer of the show.
Oh, right.
My brother told me a lot about you.
Hi.
Why are you out in the cold?
I got worried.
And I needed some fresh air.
-You should go then.
-Sure.
-I'll see you around.
-Sure. Good night.
Mom, he's incredible!
-Come on.
-No way.
You've still got it, Mom.
Don't get ahead of yourself.
Hardly. I know what I saw.
The team went out for dinner,
but Pi-young left early because of Ji-a
and Hye-ryung had to leave as well.
It ended rather abruptly.
That's why he came over
to finish talking about work.
Sure thing.
He's a gentleman though.
Or maybe he's just kind.
He lent you his jacket.
Only after I sneezed while sobering up.
Whatever you say.
Nothing's going on.
Sure.
Oh, gosh. Stop being so distracting.
No, we should go over there.
-To the hospital?
-Yes.
-We'll only disturb her.
-Why?
We'll wait outside
without telling her we're there.
He says Ga-bin will never do.
As expected.
So what now?
The student surpasses the master
even by their stubbornness.
Dad will cave in.
You're worse than him if I recall.
Why not just ride it out at home?
I feel bad saying this to your face,
but Dad needs me in his sight.
Maybe a week?
-He'll want me back in ten days.
-What about Ga-bin?
Will she let you take the lead?
Has she forgiven you?
HANGOVER SUPPLEMENTS
It sure is quiet.
It's been hours.
I'm worried about her health.
This will completely
drain her of her energy.
What if she has none left to spare?
She should have eaten better.
Like ox-bone soup
or ox-knee soup.
She needs energy to give birth.
Surgery requires an empty stomach.
What if she needs a C-section?
I'm worried, that's all.
Back in the day,
women glanced back at their shoes
when entering the delivery room.
They didn't know
if they'd be able to put them on again.
Watch what you're saying!
But it's the truth.
Keeping your mouth shut
is how you can help.
The cervix is at 8cm now.
It won't be much longer.
-Can you give her a shot for the pain?
-Well, she's managing.
It's Seo Ban.
PARK HAE-RYUN
Yes?
You know a clinic that specializes
in acupuncture, right?
-What was that?
-A clinic that specializes in acupuncture.
Can you speak clearly?
Acupuncture…
Are you crying?
I… My mouth is stuck.
-You're stuck?
-Yes.
You're stuck to Nam Ga-bin, is that it?
So are these tears of joy?
My mouth.
Is your face paralyzed?
Yes.
Which clinic specializes in acupuncture?
Text me the number.
-Okay?
-When did this happen?
I woke up just now
and grabbed myself some water to drink.
It poured down the side of my face
and my face felt weird.
That's when I looked in the mirror.
Give me more details.
How bad is it?
It's bad.
Were you up all night?
My dad passed away.
Which one? The one in the States?
He became paralyzed
after falling off his horse.
And then last Monday…
You didn't know?
-You didn't get the news?
-No.
Did your mother call?
An old friend of hers…
texted her.
Women soothe their own sorrows
Mom.
-What's wrong?
-You hear someone singing too, right?
Someone singing?
Can't you hear it?
It's coming from the living room.
But still
You're my man, man, man
A woman who awaits happiness
A woman who awaits…
-You must have been dreaming.
-Can't you hear it?
-Sleep with me tonight.
-That kind of woman, woman, woman
That kind of woman, woman, woman
I can't sleep.
Keep your eyes closed though.
The sun doesn't rise
for another three hours.
Maybe you need herbal medicine.
Lack of energy
could lead to hearing things.
Maybe old age has affected your hearing.
Are you calling me old?
I definitely heard something
although it's gone now.
Wasn't it your dad you missed,
not your grandma's burger?
I see Dad every morning.
Then I'll make you a burger.
For breakfast?
Yes, for breakfast.
What time is it?
It's 5:05 a.m. You've stayed strong.
Our baby did as well.
You must hate me.
Why?
Yun-su's wife shouted profanities at him
when giving birth
for getting her pregnant.
Do so if you want since it's fine by me.
I don't mind.
And that'll be the first thing
our baby learns.
Wouldn't our baby understand?
Babies only gain full hearing
a month after they are born.
They hear and feel enough
even from the womb.
Why else would we listen to calming music?
Of course.
Bada, your mom's exhausted enough.
Aren't you tired as well?
Aren't you curious to see
this beautiful world?
"I'll see it soon."
"I'm ready."
Be good to your mother.
This isn't a stroll in the park.
Bada, you heard her, right?
Text me your address.
Good job. You'll soon meet your baby.
You should stay outside.
Why?
It's a superstition,
but they say
some fertility goddesses are shy.
Will you be all right?
I can turn around, you know.
I love you. Stay strong.
Take in a deep breath!
All right. Once more.
You're doing great.
Think of it as defecating
rather than giving birth.
Imagine sitting on a toilet
when constipated.
All right. You're almost done.
Here's your epidural shot.
It will sting a little.
The baby is coming.
After cutting the umbilical cord,
check its breathing
and also its heart rate.
Yes, doctor.
Here we go. Take a deep breath.
Once more.
You're doing great.
Once more.
That's it.
Yes!
It's a prince.
-Hello?
-I forgot to tell you something important.
She just had the baby.
Really?
-A girl or a boy?
-I don't know yet.
How so? Weren't you there with her?
-Did she have it?
-Yes.
Is she all right?
It wasn't an easy delivery.
Anyway, I called about the time.
The time of birth is just as crucial.
What time is it?
He's a handsome young boy
just like his parents.
My baby.
My sweet baby.
I'm your mom!
Mr. Seo. I heard you live in Golden Park.
-I do.
-Could you give me a house tour today?
I love myself so much.
Get lost this instant!
Shut it.
I'm getting goosebumps.
She attacked her?
What a clingy, old geezer.
He even haunts me from his grave.
-He's looking at me.
-Goodness. You're right.
They're all there.
What did you say?
I said time is of the essence.
I need to see an acupuncturist.
-Let me see.
-Focus on me.
What will be your wedding gift?
The best gift is…
It's a punishment from God.
What would you do?
A disabled husband at home
will only slow you down at work.
Hey, Seung-a. It's been a while.
It seems like Sa-hyeon
lost someone in his family.
There's no way his parents passed away.
I hope you rest in peace.
Don't you dare touch her.
Don't be absurd. You can't take her.
