EPISODE 5

It's good to see you. Do you remember me?

-Of course.
-Are you by yourself?

Yes.

-You too?
-Yes.

You're probably here for a swim.

I can skip it.

Well, my house is nearby.

-I see.
-Would you like to join me…

for a glass of wine?

I have some good wine
that would be a pity to have by myself.

I see.

You seem like the type
to enjoy strong liquor.

Wine is stronger
than people give it credit for.

God, Buddha, and Virgin Mary!

Thank you. Thank you so much!

Ms. Lee. How did you feel to see me
get ahead of myself?

It wasn't like that.

I only just found out myself.

Find what out?

Yesterday, Mr. Seo made things official.

You're my senior by many years.

Shouldn't you at least be frank?

You'll understand
once you hear the whole story.

She's right, Hye-ryung.

We all have our pride and dignity.

I was clear with my intentions
right from the start.

Even though I have one
of the strongest egos.

Is Mr. Seo the only one
with the feelings here?

You're telling me this is all one-sided,
while you have no interest in him?

You must have had a field day watching me
practically throw myself at him.

It's humiliating.

I thought of you and Ms. Sa as my sisters.

That's why I confided in you.

I didn't see this coming either.

How do you feel about him?
At least be honest about that.

Do you like him?

Do you not?

Is he just a colleague
you find comfortable?

-It's not as simple as that.
-You must know how you feel though.

Do you not feel the need to answer?

It was something unexpected.

Stop. All I want to know
is how you truly feel.

I showed you my cards
and Mr. Seo showed us his.

It's your turn now.

This happened unexpectedly,
so I'm sure there's a story behind it.

Did he suddenly come up to you
and confess his feelings for you?

A few days ago during the team dinner,

you and Pi-young had to leave early.

I waited but then left as well.

Later that night, he called me.

To ask why I paid for dinner.

You paid for dinner?

Yes, as a thank you
for all the times I was treated.

It wasn't all the time.

It was already quite late,

so he offered to say hi to my husband
if he was still up.

That's when I told him about my divorce.

Upon hearing that,
he said he'd come by my apartment complex.

He did?

Yes.

He told me we had met before.

It turns out that we went to
the same art academy in fifth grade.

And he remembered that?

Well, yes. It's not like
I have the most common name.

He also remembered me
because I was nice to him.

And you don't remember him?

I took a lot of classes when I was a kid.

Although this isn't something I remember,

after he enrolled in the academy,

I apparently quit in less than ten days.

I see.

Still, those few days were enough
for you to grow close

and become a couple?

I'll be honest with you.

One thing led to another,
and things ended up that way.

Romantic relationships are a mystery.

-I didn't expect it at all.
-Where do you stand?

Is he steering this whole ship?

Do you like him back?

I don't mind him.

Again with the vague answer.

Is it that hard for you
to say how you feel?

You don't mind him, is that it?

I want to compliment him
whenever I see him

and comfort him.

Getting to know him taught me
that he's quite humorous.

Who knows how this will end,

but our talks are interesting.

I may not remember our encounter,

but I guess I find comfort in it.

We had breakfast
for his birthday yesterday.

At a hotel?

No, in the park. I packed us some food.

Mr. Seo must have been touched.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Going up.

You live in a fancy place.

-There aren't any slippers.
-The floor's clean.

Please have a seat.

It would be great
to live here together as a couple.

It's nice and tidy.

I'm going to sink my teeth into him.

I'd choose him over Yu-sin any day.

He hasn't been married before

and he's close to my age.

You poured me a lot.

As Ji-a puts it,
my heart is out of control.

God and Buddha,
are you finally answering my prayers?

Please!

Let's have Mr. Seo's sendoff party today.

It's not every day
that we're all free like this.

-You're right.
-You should give him a call.

Don't push it on him though.

Don't you have plans tonight?

I don't have to go.

Hello?

You sound like you were asleep.

Right.

Didn't you go for a swim?

I got back early.

Hye-ryung and Pi-young
want to throw you a sendoff party.

-I see.
-Can you make it?

-Of course.
-Got it.

Once we decide on a place,
I'll text you the address.

Sure.

Si-eun, you seem so at ease with him.

It's like you've been a couple for years.
Do the kids know?

Hyang-gi saw us
when he came by the complex.

I'll book us a table at Day Day.

You have a great figure.

-I bet you work out every day.
-Sure.

As a man myself, I must say I'm jealous.

-When did you visit an amusement park?
-Last year.

With Won and A Mi.

-Take us to Hankuk World.
-At this hour?

-Yes.
-Why?

-To clear my head.
-Are you in need of that?

I just want to go someplace
I haven't been before.

We'll head out, sir.

Is your back better?

Yes. Whatever.

Are you chilly?

-Dinner's ready.
-Okay.

I don't want any.

-Why not?
-I just don't feel like it.

Did you get to swim today?

Yes.

Why is she so out of it?

You came.

Ms. Lee told us that your first encounter
goes decades back.

You should have said something.

Keeping it bottled inside
would have k*lled me.

It's not easy to hide your feelings.

Seeing her again
was more than enough for me.

-Fifth grade, you say?
-Yes.

That would make Si-eun your first love.

-That's right.
-Gosh.

If only my first love sought me out.

Let's drink something strong today.

-Drink?
-Aren't you in the mood?

It won't be a proper sendoff
without drinks.

How about wine?

-Hye-ryung can choose.
-We never got to see you drunk as a skunk.

-Your alcohol list?
-At the back of the menu, sir.

-Let's ride that one.
-That one?

Sometimes, we should do
what we normally wouldn't.

This is how memories are made.

This is the scariest part.

Scream if you're scared.

My gosh!

My gosh!

Scream if you want to.

-I can't.
-Why not?

I don't know. I'm not in the mood.

Any prejudice we had about men…

They were prejudices, right?

Anyway, you changed my mind.

Because of what we've been through,

we believed that all men
were disloyal animals.

Ms. Sa, men change…

the minute they get married.

Mr. Seo, that could be you as well.

Is Hye-ryung right?

She's not, is she?

Exceptions exist, you know.

It all boils down
to their underlying character.

Take my ex-husband as an example.
I thought he was kind and diligent.

A good guy with a conscience,
who was also such a sweetheart.

But he drove a nail through my heart

and now he's shedding tears of blood.

Did his relationship also end?

No, but this talk is k*lling my mood,
so I'll tell you some other time.

Does your brother know about Ms. Lee?

Yes, he does.

-What did he say?
-They haven't met.

Which is why he has nothing to say.

He gives off a good impression.

He's a lot like you in a way,
but also quite different.

He's like Prince Charming.

Right?

Yes. How did you know that?

A wild guess.

All this time, we have never
been to a karaoke bar together.

-Let's go to one.
-She's right. We should.

There's one downstairs.

Can you carry a tune?

We're more interested in hearing you sing.

-What are you looking at her for?
-I can't sing.

Okay, fine.

Then prove just how bad you are.

Is that something I must prove in life?

-When the situation calls for it.
-The night's still too young.

Let's go by age. Mr. Seo, you're first.

You're the man of the hour.

Then please help preserve my image.

I really can't stand my own singing.

The eldest can't bail out on us.

-That's not the case.
-Let's not be pushy.

I'll go first.

"ONE MILLION ROSES"

A long time ago

When I entered this world on a star

-I heard a tiny voice
-My gosh!

Goodness.

Telling me to spread love

A flower that only blooms when in love

I was told to bloom a million flowers

Only when it's true love

Should the rose of love bloom

Without any hatred in my heart

Only when it's love, I give to the fullest

A million flowers will bloom

That's when I will be able to return
To the star I call home

Without any hatred in my heart

Only when it's love, I give to the fullest

A million flowers will bloom

That's when I will be able to return
To the star I call home

Hey, there.
So you're drawing an object to true size.

To do so, grab the pencil like this.

Use the tip of the pencil
and your finger as a guide

to measure the object's ratio.

Would you like some?

-Bye. See you tomorrow.
-Bye.

Guys, hurry up.

A million flowers will bloom

That's when I will be able to return
To the star I call home

What is true love?

Seriously?

What? No, wait!

Sa-hyeon.

Many people left me

What a sad world

After a long time has passed

I met someone who gave everything,
Even one's life

He appeared like a light

And I had that love fully in my heart

Without any hatred in my heart

Only when it's love, I give to the fullest

A million flowers will bloom

That's when I will be able to return
To the star I call home

Without any hatred in my heart

Only when it's love, I give to the fullest

A million flowers will bloom

That's when I will be able to return
to the star I call home

I'm busy until late
in the evening tomorrow.

Are you going to come up?

-Do you need to pee?
-No.

-Hasn't your father said anything?
-No.

How did your brother
spend his birthday yesterday?

We met up late last night.

Wash your hands.

What is it?

Punch me.

Slap me if you want.

What's with you today?
You're acting weird.

I can't marry you.

I could just go along with it,
but that would be wrong.

I won't ask for forgiveness.

-I'll burn in hell if that's my fate.
-Again?

You toyed with me yet again.

Why though? It was out of pity, wasn't it?

That's the only--

-I do love you.
-But?

It needs to be a more powerful emotion.

Love isn't enough.

What do you mean by love and this
powerful emotion you're talking about?

I'm an actress
who pours out emotions on stage.

But I don't get what you're saying.

I'm the problem here, but I can't help it.

If only I were like other people.

What gives you the right?

You are not God.

You're like the rest of us. A human being.

Just toss me aside.

Ending it this way--

Why me?

Wasn't the one time enough?

You always mess with me
whenever life gets boring.

Does being an orphan now

-make me an easier target?
-Even I can't understand myself.

-Has someone else caught your eye?
-Not my eye, but my ear.

-This isn't the time for jokes.
-I'm serious.

Get lost.

I'll make it up to you in any way I can.

Money doesn't buy you everything.

You b*stard!

You coldhearted beast.

Why not just stab me in the heart instead?

I thought I had stronger willpower
than most people.

But I was mistaken.

Annoyingly enough, I always end up
letting my desires take over.

It sometimes makes me think
that I'm emotionally sick.

Maybe I am.

You might be heartbroken today,

but you will end up
thanking me in the long run.

Ga-bin, I love you.

It's because I love you
that I can't marry you in this state.

Even though you might think
this is all some ruse.

Thank you. I truly appreciate it.

Don't pretend that this hurts!

A desire I can't see or fully grasp…

sways me every time.

Get your driver up here.

Take it all and get lost!

Get lost!

Take it all with you!

You piece of garbage!

You cold-blooded scumbag!

What does Si-eun have that I don't?

He probably thinks he can't handle me.

CHURCH

Sir, could you pull over?

Did you see someone you know?

Do you go to church?
I didn't know you were religious.

No.

I just wanted to come in here.

We didn't drink too much today.

-I know.
-You're good at drawing and writing.

Singing must have run in the family too.

My maternal grandmother.

If her family had approved it,

she would have become
a master pansori singer.

My singing is nothing compared to hers.

I don't have any special talents.

That's hard to believe.

Do you know what I wished for
while blowing out the candles?

Can't you take me in?

Apart from being strong,
the only thing I have is my job.

Nothing about me is worth showing off.

My mind draws a blank
even when writing the simplest postcards

and I'm not an eloquent speaker.

All I have is my love. My love for you.

That love is what I desire right now.

All my life, I rarely desired anything.

But now, that has changed.

And it's a feeling I'm welcoming in awe.

If you're going to reject me,

do it later on.

Maybe after mulling it over for 50 years.

Can you take my hand?

I need to be calmed down.

I promise you this in God's presence.

My feelings for you
will not change until the day I die.

You're bringing me to tears.

I've been feeling my heart race lately.

All because I think of you
the minute I wake up every morning.

It's the same for me as well.

Really?

Can't the kids come to meet us?

There's no need to rush things.

There is.

We're 50 and it's a darn fine age.

Mama goes off

To the rocks by the sea

Looking for oysters to harvest

The baby

Is all alone at home

-What?
-Why are you singing at this hour?

It's not just any song.
I'm practicing a lullaby.

-Is he asleep?
-Practice in your head.

I doubt it was easy for Sa-hyeon
to fall asleep.

Do you know how to sing lullabies?

-To raise a newborn--
-As if that matters right now.

Of course it does.
Nothing is more vital than sleep.

It helps develop sensitivity.

You should head home once day breaks.

Is that what Sa-hyeon wants?

-Just you.
-Why just me?

Because you wake up
whenever the baby fusses and cries.

I'm not exhausted at all.

His crying is music to my ears.

I'm fully prepared to be
the world's greatest grandpa-slash-nanny.

-It won't last.
-You wait and see.

Goodness. It'll wake up the baby.

-Who could it be?
-Maintenance maybe?

-It's Hye-ryung.
-Hye-ryung? Let her in!

It's me.

-Right.
-Come on in.

Where's Sa-hyeon?

-He's here.
-Sleeping, I assume.

Sorry. I'm coming from a team dinner.

Of course. We understand.

Where's the baby?

He fell asleep after having his milk.

All he does is eat and sleep.

-Can I see him?
-Later. When he wakes up.

Did you come to see him?

You must be devastated.

Even I feel bad about what happened,

so I can only imagine.

And his late mother?

I mean, did you bury her?

We did. By her parents.

You'll probably visit her grave
whenever you miss her.

-Is that what you want to know?
-No.

I feel bad for the poor baby…

and I'm also curious.

Won't you let me see him, Mother?

You sweet thing.

-Do you know how to feed him?
-Of course.

I'd like to feed him.

He needs to be awake first.

But when he wakes up,
he wails at the top of his lungs.

Gosh, I'm thirsty.

-Water or juice?
-I'll get it myself.

Can I come again some other time?

-Does the baby need anything?
-It's fine.

Of course.

-Baby formula.
-Right. What else?

-Diapers.
-Got it.

I'll come here again tomorrow
when I'm sober.

Will you make me dinner?

Of course.

Father, you're always the best.

Should I come back tomorrow or not?

-You should.
-He's against it.

I doubt it.

He's still emotionally wounded
to have an opinion.

-Your manager must be waiting.
-Right.

-Then get going.
-Sure.

That's right. Be careful.

You know how they say
that one's future isn't written.

It's true.

-Please don't see me out.
-Sure.

-Get home safely.
-Yes, Father.

Coming by at this hour
is her way of being considerate.

There's no need to frown.

Gosh, the little one's awake.

If the kids say they don't like me,
let me meet them.

I have a feeling they already like you.

I'd love to go up with you.

Going up.

Going up.

Hye-ryung is the way to go.

Don't you agree?
It's not like he'll stay single forever.

By the looks of it, he just might.

Don't curse him.
Men can't live by themselves.

-Men these days can.
-That I'll never accept.

Don't get ahead of yourself
when it's not even an option.

Didn't you see the way
she looked at Jeong-bin?

There isn't a woman
who doesn't adore children.

We're wired to be mothers.

Exactly.

We only need her motherly instinct
to be linked to Jeong-bin.

They can get back together
and have another baby.

What if she plays favorites
after having hers?

A change in one's situation
can alter one's perspective.

We'll cross that bridge when it's time.

For now, our priority is to make sure that
our youngest doesn't stay single forever.

As if Sa-hyeon would be interested.

He fell out of love with her.

But Hye-ryung had a right
to react that way.

We were offended by her too,

so it's hard to find fault
with what people feel.

What she did was far worse.

Don't you ruin my positive thinking.

MR. SEO: I JUST GOT BACK HOME

I just got back home.

Wash up and turn in, then.

Sure thing. Good night.

Hey, Ban.

-Are you out?
-No, I'm home.

We should have breakfast tomorrow
at Yeoksam Hotel.

-Just us two?
-Of course just us two.

-Sure.
-You sound depressed.

I'm not. I was just about to sleep.

The bride and the groom
will walk down the aisle.

Please applaud as they walk down.

-What's going on?
-Goodness.

Can you believe it?

-Goodness.
-Have you seen such a thing before?

Are you there?

Song Yuan? Jeong-bin's mom?

I can't do this.

I don't think I can live without you.

We should have at least had
our wedding first.

-Am I that pretty?
-Of course.

-Am I the apple of your eye?
-You're no fruit.

If only I could see
my pretty daughter every day again.

Ask Mom. She smiles more these days
and is doing better.

You never know.
She rarely listens to me these days.

Maybe I should ask her for you.

I don't know. I doubt it'll be easy.

It's not just me
who benefits from you two.

I'm here for you as well.

Why is there only one sweet roll?

I'm good.

Mom, I need emotional stability.

-Let's move back home.
-This is home for us.

A family should live together
under the same roof.

Don't you remember what I told you before?

This brings me back to the time
when I was dating your father,

and we don't nag each other
about the little things anymore.

-The pros outweigh the cons.
-But Dad wants to live with us.

Please?

I'll think about it.

-Would you like some tea or coffee?
-Sure.

Your mood suggests
you have good news to share.

You're right. I'm going to get married.

With that woman?

Yes.

Just how old is she?
Don't tell me she's older than you.

-We're the same age.
-Really?

Yes.

So she's a divorcée.
No kids though, right?

Actually, her eldest daughter's in college

and her son's starting sixth grade.

Just like the name U-ram suggests,
he's adorable and mature.

The chairman will be enraged.

She's going to be
his eldest daughter-in-law.

What he thinks means nothing to me.

You never even batted an eye
at the unmarried, beautiful, and wealthy.

-Fate works in its own way.
-This seems ill-fated.

I'd like to get married
at least a week before you.

Ga-bin and I ended things last night.

What did you do wrong?

Was it you who ended things again?

-Yes.
-Why?

-I couldn't be sure.
-Nonsense!

-You'll burn in hell.
-Then, so be it.

You'll regret it.

Aren't you hungry?

-How can you eat right now?
-I'm here, aren't I?

Breakfast is ready.

-Are you off somewhere?
-To a friend's in Singapore.

That's sudden.
Have you booked your flight?

-Of course.
-You should have told me.

-Then I would have called the driver.
-What for? I already called a cab.

-Unbelievable.
-How long will you stay there?

Mr. Seo.

-Are you here for breakfast?
-Yes.

-Hello.
-Yes, hello.

He's my brother.
I heard you two have already met.

My gosh.
I didn't know you were his brother.

-Are you here alone?
-Yes.

-You should join us.
-Maybe I should.

Was that necessary?

-Is it uncomfortable?
-Worry about Ga-bin, will you?

She's tough and relentless at times.
Besides, she's not new to this.

-You're so like him.
-Father, you mean.

-Doesn't this place serve good breakfast?
-It does.

I wouldn't be against it if it were her.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

Those who are flashy on the outside
are often humble on the inside.

She's exactly as she looks.

Is that so?
How did she get on your bad side?

-What is it?
-A friend passed away.

-From an illness?
-I don't think he was sick.

Finish up before you go.

Tell her why I left.

He was texted that his friend passed away.

Goodness. Funerals seem to be
going around these days.

You can say that again.

Why didn't you say anything? If you had--

-Would you like some coffee?
-Yes.

If I had, then what?

I would have been friendlier toward you.

You were.

-Will you be having more?
-Sure.

Do you perhaps know about…

-It's nothing.
-About my brother?

Yes, his girlfriend.

I heard about her,

but I'd rather not talk about it
in my brother's absence.

I see.

I'd throw myself at him
if only my eggs were more productive.

You seem better.

I am, thanks to all the help I received.

-People are all we have left.
-Right.

I met the producer
at the golf club the other day.

She seemed honest and direct.

-She is.
-Ban asked if her family came

-and she mentioned her divorce.
-My gosh. Did she?

Judging by her boldness,
I guess she wasn't at fault.

Her situation is the same as mine.

Her former husband is a doctor,
and he had an affair.

As a man, can you understand?

Yes.

Well, your brother said he couldn't.

I guess brothers aren't always alike.

Even twins have different personalities.

My friend's an identical twin, you see.

Anyway, there's no guy
like Mr. Seo these days.

I agree and I'm a guy myself.

I can't believe I lost out on a catch.

-Hold on.
-What is it?

What if someone recognizes us
having breakfast together?

My gosh. You're right.

-I'll get going then.
-But you're not done.

I've had enough.
I usually eat light anyway.

-Take care, then.
-See you around.

The way he looks from behind
isn't just handsome.

It's a work of art.

Hello.

Right.

-Boo's LMM.
-Sorry?

-Love, Memories, and Music.
-Oh, that.

We just call it "Boom".

The songs you play
are based too much on your own taste.

Is that so?

It could be difficult
for the average listener.

I see.

Also, you're close
with the music critic Eun-sae, right?

Why else would you invite him
as a guest with every new show you launch?

-That isn't the case.
-As if.

A MI

-Hi, Pi-young.
-Hey.

Do you have time for coffee today?
About 20 minutes will do.

-After the show.
-Dongchimi left for Singapore.

I heard she has a friend there.

I'll tell you more in person later.

Why has your phone been turned off?

-Oh, that.
-Did you catch a cold?

Yes.

You don't have to give me pocket money.

I was worried about you, that's all.

Can you buy me a snack?

Sure.

-I'm good.
-But you love red bean buns.

I'm full at the moment. I'll eat at home.

Are you hurt?

Can't you take off your mask?

I can't hear well.

Dad, please.

It's nothing.

The cold air did a number on me.

I'm treating it
with acupuncture and medicine.

It'll get better soon.

Why are you crying?

This is why you should
keep your face warm when sleeping.

It's no different than a cold.

Now, dig in. You'll only upset me.

Does Mom know?

Yes. We went to
the oriental medicine clinic together.

-Sorry?
-We went to the clinic together.

-Would you like a beverage?
-Even tea has calories.

According to the housekeeper,

Dongchimi bowed sincerely
before the shrine when I was out.

She stayed on her knees for ages,
praying in tears.

-In tears?
-Yes. Aren't they to ask for forgiveness?

She must feel guilty about something.

That's why she escaped to Singapore.

She came back from the pool yesterday

and spent the day totally out of it.

Totally.

-Shouldn't I do the ritual myself?
-It won't help.

So you'll keep on serving meals
for his rite?

I only did it to see Dongchimi's reaction.

She was on edge as expected.

Discontinuing the ritual
might set Ji-a off again.

Appeasing his soul
would be a permanent solution.

How though?
We can't be sure he's even angry.

What if Mother's right
about him wanting to make her move on?

If that's the case,
we don't need to worry.

The recent events made Dongchimi
flee the country.

If Ji-a acts out again,

we can take her to a monk
who specializes in exorcism.

But all things point to Dongchimi
doing something to hurt him.

If only you had seen it.

Yu-sin was there and he believes Mother.

You know how guys brush these things off.

What could she have done to Father?

I don't know.
All I want is for Ji-a to be okay.

Don't you worry.

See you tomorrow.

Sure.

Why were you staring at her?
Don't you recognize her?

Of course I do.

How can I not
after that fuss of an interview?

-She was wailing.
-Are you a hater?

I'll tell you about it later.

Anyway, I have groceries to pick up.

There isn't any food at home.

Are you satisfied?

With this life, I mean.

Yes, but I do feel guilty about
what I did to you.

I'll be good to you forever.

Don't bother.

You reap what you sow.

Get off at Mapo and let me drive.

Yes, sir.

-Yes?
-Is this Producer Sa Pi-young?

-Yes?
-I'm Seo Dong-ma,

Seo Ban's brother
who you ran into at the golf club.

Oh, right. Hello.

Are you still at work?

-I'm just getting off.
-I see.

I had something to say,
so I came to your station.

Is that so?

-Where are you right now?
-The parking lot.

-On the ground level?
-Yes.

I just exited the building.

-I'll head over to you.
-Sure.

-Where's your car?
-It wouldn't start this morning,

so I took a cab.

Then, could I give you a ride?

That's all right. I'm sure you're busy.

I cleared my schedule for this.

All the nearby cafes
will be filled with colleagues.

Let's head out for now.

I take it that
you don't live with Mr. Seo.

No. I still live at home.

You'll only encounter hardship
once you leave the nest.

Songrium Apartment, please.
It'll show on the GPS.

If you don't have plans,
can I take you to dinner?

-I don't have plans, but--
-Then we'll talk over dinner.

Sure.

It's probably about Si-eun.

Mr. Seo's road to marriage
will be a bumpy ride.

May I take this? It's related to work.

-Sure.
-It could last a while.

It's fine. I'll be your silent driver.

Hello?

What happened to your friend?

It was a heart attack.

But he's still so young.

-He should have kicked his drinking habit.
-Oh, dear.

You'll probably stop by again
since he was a close friend.

-Yes.
-All right.

What are you up to?

-I'm making dinner.
-What's on the menu?

Vietnamese spring rolls.
The kids enjoy them.

I never took a liking to that dish.

You'll change your mind
once you taste mine.

They're different
from the ones at restaurants.

-Is that so?
-They're healthy as well.

When will I get to eat them?

Come over, then.

I might just do that.

I'll ring the doorbell.
Thanks to U-ram, I know which unit.

Maybe later. You'll get your fill.

Have you told them? Your children, I mean.

Not yet.

There's no need to drag it out.

All right.

Sure. Have a good night.

Got it.

There was a lot of traffic in Gangnam.

Where should we dine?
Would they have a table?

Have you been here before?

No.

I rarely find myself
coming to hotels north of the river.

Sir, you came.

I didn't make reservations.

We have a room. It's been a while, sir.

Right.

Your meal will be served right away.

-Has the menu changed?
-Yes, but just the entrée.

What a view.

You must be hungry.

-A little.
-Where did you go for lunch?

The cafeteria.

I had a meal there with Ban before.

-It's not tasty, is it?
-No.

That's why I often bring a packed lunch.
Like salads.

I see.

Is this regarding something
that Mr. Seo shouldn't hear?

First things first.
You have your car keys, right?

-Yes.
-If you hand them over,

I'll have someone get your car fixed.

-It's all right.
-I'm headed to the airport tomorrow.

Will you be taking the cab to work again?

Is it a vacation?

Oh, a business trip.

How rude of me.

Something came up
at our office in Germany.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SEO DONG-MA

You deal in AI technology.

That's right. Did Ban tell you?

Of course not. Don't you know him?
He always keeps to himself.

That must run in the family.

Refined emotions and expressions.

Was that part of your upbringing?

Or maybe it just runs in your genes.

Ban and I are different, but also alike.

How about a glass of wine?

Sure.

My bowels will be thanking me tomorrow.

Kids, eat while you listen.

Go ahead.

You see,

Mr. Seo and I are seeing each other.

It turns out we once took the same class.

At an art academy.

Go ahead.

-You see--
-Is it about Mr. Seo?

I doubt it.

I saw Dad today.

Where? Did he call you?

In the neighborhood.

He has Bell's palsy.

It hurt to see him like that
and it's unsettling.

Dad's mouth is paralyzed?

-A bottle, right?
-Yes, sir.

We can't possibly finish it.

Good wine can always be taken home.

I need to take this. It's from Germany.

Sure.

Hello?

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SEO DONG-MA

Mr. Seo's the eldest son of a wealthy CEO.

No wonder.

I heard about her from Ban,

but I was hoping to know
more about Ms. Lee.

We're good friends.

-And she has many great qualities.
-As in?

Her personality for starters.
She's humble inside and out.

Ban's never been married.

He probably wants me
to talk her out of it.

Is cold water all right?

It's a little chilly.

-Can we have warm water?
-Sure.

-Just for one?
-Yes.

Should I cut to the chase
or begin at the top?

The former, please.

Then here it goes.

I'd like to marry
the woman in front of me.

That's you, Ms. Sa.

Ms. Sa, if I…

You'd pass out
if I pulled down my pants and peed.

You're mischievous.

-Can I stop by?
-Come.

I'd like to see the woman I cherish
while I still can.

-If I could…
-If you could?

Promise you won't hit me.

I don't want us to part ways like this.
I'll book a room.

I bet on Jeong-bin's first birthday,

Hye-ryung will be greeting
the guests. I have a hunch.

Your hunches have never been right.

He has a heart.

Let's go there for our honeymoon.

Is that so? I'm suddenly starting
to develop feelings for you as well.

Let's get married.

I think that van has been following us.

I have a favor to ask.

Your wish is my command.

-You should hurry.
-Will you give me a hug?

Or should I give you one instead?
