(Episode 41)

What do you want?

There is something I must say.

Do you still have something more to say?

Go ahead.

Just as you wish,

I will return to the company.

And I will go through succession formality.

Is that so?

I'm glad to hear that.

Have you come to your senses?

Yes.

I've finally come to my senses.

I've definitely realized my place.

I will be the owner of the next generation...

after all.

If I can't avoid nor deny,

I will accept it and do whatever I want with it.

Go on.

I'll run this company...

in my own way and my belief.

First of all,

I'll manage the Marketing Support Center...

as I want.

Instead, you must promise me this.

Promise me you won't interfere.

Only then I can serve at your pleasure.

All right.

If you put up a good show,

I will follow your rules.

I will certainly bring about great results.

And don't ever...

bother Ms. Kang.

Is this about that woman again?

She is my girlfriend.

And she is also...

an important person in our department.

This is not about my personal feelings.

She is someone who can help me in the future.

I don't want to lose her due to personal feelings.

Nor do I want to hurt her.

So please promise me...

that you will never bother Ms. Kang.

What a flimsy excuse.

All right.

If you'll go through succession formality,

I will leave her alone.

I won't just leave her alone,

I can even promote her.

I'm willing to protect her from all the risk.

You don't have to promote...

nor protect her.

What?

She is a competent person.

If she's not being put under problems like this,

she will be able to promote on her own...

in a fair system.

And I will be the person...

to protect her.

She is my person.

So don't meddle in.

What? You must be still out of your mind.

I have given up...

the ways of my whole life...

and betting my life on this.

Are you going to take the deal?

Or are you going to refuse the deal?

Please tell me, Father.

You little...

What brings you here...

at this hour?

I've come to have a word with you.

Come on in.

I also had something to say to you.

I wanted to say...

I'm sorry that I've been too harsh about Ms. Kang.

I guess I was being too emotional.

I shouldn't have slapped you.

That shouldn't have happened.

I'm sorry.

I've never lifted my voice raising you.

It's all right, Mother.

I understand.

I am your son.

You can yell at me and hit me as well.

Whatever happens,

I will be your son for the rest of my life.

I know what you're worried about.

But I will never betray you...

nor leave you...

on any occasion.

Tae Ju.

So please calm down.

And as Father wanted,

I'll officially go through succession formality.

Good job.

I'm glad to hear that.

Instead,

please entirely leave the matter...

about Ms. Kang to me.

I don't want...

anyone else to interfere in that problem.

I want to make a decision on my own.

Tae Ju.

In order for people to accept our relationship,

I'll entirely change...

the way of my life from tonight.

I want you...

to respect my decision.

All right.

If that's what you want, do it as you wish.

But that's going to...

hurt Ms. Kang a lot.

It won't be easy.

I know.

But I'll try...

to make her understand somehow.

(The new personnel appointment is announced.)

(Appointment Announcement)

(Han Tae Ju)

(Junior Managing Director)

Excuse me, miss!

You forgot your handbag and luggage!

Let's hurry in, Director Han.

How are you feeling?

Are you feeling better?

What in the world happened?

Calm down.

How do you expect me to calm down?

It's driving me crazy! I'm going nuts!

I just can't believe this.

Why would you say that?

I mean, you should've known.

How could I have known?

Even the executives found out today morning...

and ran down to greet him. You know that.

Didn't you know either, Min Hye?

You guys were close...

since you joined the company at the same time.

How was I supposed to know?

None of the newbies knew about this.

But the way he behaved didn't seem like...

that of a son of a rich family at all.

So it was all an act. What a jerk.

Watch what you're saying, Mr. Park.

He's the chairman's son.

What are you going to do from now on?

He's the chairman's son...

Stay still.

The ice bag will keep falling if you move.

Ms. Kang.

- You're here. - Hello.

Are you okay, Ms. Kang?

Ms. Kang.

- Han Tae Ju is... - Ms. Kang.

Didn't Tae Ju come to work today?

Is he not here yet?

Ms. Kang, there's something about him.

He isn't the newbie we used to know.

He's the chairman's son.

Gosh, I'm so busy.

Aren't you going to open the restaurant today?

This isn't the time...

to prepare for dinner.

Try this and see if it's well-seasoned.

How is it?

It's a little bland.

Really? Then I better put some more soy sauce.

Gosh, I'm so excited...

that I can't focus on my business.

Let's sell what we have and close the store early.

Gosh, Sun Ja.

Mi Ri is going to bring her boyfriend.

How do you expect me to stay focused?

You're helpless.

I'm here.

- Welcome. - Hi.

You're going to enjoy a feast today.

- Pardon? - We have...

a lot of food today.

Goodness. Let's get ready to open.

Okay.

Hold on a second.

How pretty.

- Hi, Mom. - Hi.

Visit my house this evening.

Why, are you up to something?

Hey, I think...

Mi Ri is going to bring her boyfriend here today.

Really?

Yes, she's visiting my house in the evening...

after her business trip to China.

She said she's coming with someone...

and asked me to prepare a meal.

She's coming with her boyfriend, right?

I bet. But who?

Is it that man from the other day?

Yes.

I think it's him for certain.

You know she can get wily sometimes.

She beats around the bush...

without saying things directly.

I can tell you're excited.

Anyway, that's good to hear.

He looked diligent and innocent.

Whom are you talking about?

Go get your backpack in your room, Da Bin.

- Okay. - Good girl.

So you should come.

I might not be able to make it though.

Why? This is really important.

I know that it is really important,

and I wish I can be there.

But my family situation isn't so great these days.

What about it?

It's not exactly my family.

It's my parents-in-law.

I can't ask them to look after Da Bin for long.

Did your mother cause trouble again?

What are you talking about?

Your father doesn't cause any problems.

It's always her who causes problems.

That's not true.

Anyway, let's hang up. Da Bin might hear it.

I'll try to stop by if I can.

I just can't promise you that.

Bye, Mom.

Why this brat...

I've thought so hard,

I just can't understand Mom.

Stop it already. Da Bin might hear it.

It was Da Bin who first saw that man.

What is wrong with you?

I'm not saying anything wrong.

She's gotten senseless in her later age.

How could she hold hands with another man...

at our apartment complex late at night?

I told you, that's not it.

Mi Sun, how do you know?

Why, are you a member of that pottery club too?

Do you have to think of your own mom like that?

How else should I think of Mom?

It's not like she's in the right.

Like Dad said,

whether she cheated or not,

how could she do that in the apartment complex...

that her son's family lives in too?

I will never let this slide.

What will you do then?

To show remorse for what she did,

Mom must look after Da Bin.

What?

We had a hard time because Mom refused...

to watch Da Bin so she could make pottery.

Da Bin had to stay at her friends' house.

Mom can stay at home with Da Bin...

and reflect on her poor behavior.

She can reflect...

and we can leave Da Bin with her. Isn't it great?

And it's free too.

Grow up.

What? Isn't this good for you too?

You can be free.

Why are you so selfish?

And you call yourself a son?

The eldest child?

You're grown up.

Can't you show tolerance towards your parents?

Don't just think of them as parents...

but as humans with emotions like you.

Can't you think of her as a poor, lonely person?

She was born before you,

but she still struggles and goes astray.

What can't you understand?

Look at you, Mi Sun.

Since when did you...

- Mom. - That's enough.

Do you have everything?

- Yes. - Let's go.

My gosh, you... Let's go.

Mi Sun, since when were you so close to Mom?

Gosh, this is unbelievable.

Darn it.

No.

It's really not that.

How is it not that?

It's not what you think.

I don't like him as a man.

Then do you like him as a woman?

That pottery teacher or master of yours.

Is he actually a woman who just cross-dresses?

Do you think only a couple of a man and woman...

can like each other?

What other relationship is there?

Regardless of gender,

I can like someone as a human being.

If we discuss art,

there can be common ground that we both like.

So you sat by the playground...

facing each other,

giving each other looks...

while your heart beat through your chest...

as you held each other's hands?

- We didn't hold... - Be quiet, woman.

Shut up!

Forget about how I found out.

Aren't you ashamed...

that Jin Soo and Mi Sun saw you too?

That's why you told Mi Sun you wouldn't...

look after Da Bin,

but you suddenly said you would.

You wanted her to bring Da Bin...

right away or take her home again.

Was all that just so you could...

go out to see the master or something?

Honey.

You're getting old.

Try to save your face, will you?

You're embarrassing yourself...

and your son's family in front of the neighbors.

I don't believe this.

Are you done talking?

I am. Why?

I caught you cheating on me.

Do you still think you're in the right?

Honey. Jung Dae Chul.

Mother, Father, Da Bin's here.

Welcome.

- Hi. - Hello.

Come here.

- Hi, Da Bin. - Father.

Don't say a word.

Things are very serious between us right now.

Da Bin, I'll play with you today.

Your grandma...

has to make pottery.

Stay with Grandpa until you go to kindergarten.

- Okay. - Good girl.

Father.

[VIU Ver] KBS2 E41 'My Prettiest Daughter in the World' "Tae Ju Decides yo Go Through Succession Formality" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Mother.

Look at how he treats me.

He talks as if...

I cheated on him.

I'm sure it's because he's flustered.

He'll understand in time.

Mi Sun.

Think about it.

He worked and had a social life for 30 to 40 years.

He must've met numerous women.

Colleagues, subordinates,

and clients.

And even women who work at restaurants close by...

and bar hostesses.

He lived among such women for his whole life,

and me...

Aren't I allowed to meet other people?

I spent...

40 years at home.

The only people I ever saw were...

my parents-in-law, relatives, and husband.

And Jin Soo and Jin Joo.

That's the extent of the people I saw.

That was my social circle.

And...

how did they all treat me?

All they wanted from me was food.

I'm sick of people asking me for food.

So before it's too late, I wanted to meet others...

and have a social life of my own.

Would there be only women?

Of course, half the population is male.

And your father...

Fine.

I can give him a divorce if he wants.

At this state,

if the supermarket owner's a man,

I can't even shop there.

I can't take this.

Very well.

If everything goes as you predict,

we'll have no problems this quarter.

But we can't stop at having no problems.

We must improve when we can.

In the clothing industry, one setback...

can drag us way down in the next quarter.

And more than anything, the chairman has...

high expectations for the new athleisure line.

As I reported already,

our designs and performance...

is as good as any of our competitors'.

Which is why this quarter's sales...

depend greatly on marketing.

I'd like to hear the overall direction...

of marketing.

Director Han Tae Ju?

The new athleisure line...

is a chance to familiarize younger customers...

with Hansung Apparel.

I plan to maintain the existing...

viral marketing strategy including SNS.

To keep existing customers with us,

I'm also coming up with some comfortable...

but direct marketing strategies.

I'll give you the details when I have...

the second design draft.

The second design draft?

Are you not satisfied with...

the current draft?

Of course, compared to existing sports brands,

we're not far behind.

But compared to other casual brands,

our designs are lackluster,

and the functions are quite behind...

the other professional sports brand we sell.

That is purely your personal opinion.

It's not my personal opinion.

Marketing Team did some research.

We interviewed our VIP clients...

and fashion influencers for their ratings.

In that case,

Design and Product Development Team...

should come up with better ideas.

Yes.

If we focus on marketing when the quality's poor,

we might profit for a while,

but eventually, we'll lose...

credibility and that will ruin our reputation.

If that were to happen,

we'd lose something bigger than what we tried to get.

The basics should always be covered first.

Then comes strategy.

Having someone young in our midst...

made the meeting more lively.

I expect a lot from you, Director Han.

Ms. Kang taught you well.

She did well.

What if Ms. Kang passes out?

I know.

I bet the sense of betrayal...

got her right in the bones.

We feel this bad.

She must feel worse.

How could he do this?

Ms. Kang was so nice to him.

Stop it, all of you.

Get back to work! We can't slack off.

How can we work in this situation?

How can you...

Tae Ju, you nasty jerk.

Shouldn't you get ready to resign?

Why? What did I do?

You're the one who harassed Tae Ju...

and gave him a hard time.

That's true.

Seriously?

Resigning...

What now?

I told you not to go so far.

Why are you so upset?

You're acting like his wife.

Right.

I'm just saying.

I really hope Ms. Kang feels better soon.

I'm worried about her.

Hello, Director Han.

Hello.

Please call Ms. Kang of Marketing Team.

Yes, sir.

(General Manager Kang Mi Ri)

Hello. This is Kang Mi Ri of Marketing Team.

Ms. Kang.

Director Han wants to see you.

Sir, Ms. Kang is here.

Ms. Kang.

Ms. Kang.

I'm so sorry...

that I didn't tell you sooner.

(Letter of Resignation)

- Bye. - Have a nice day.

Thank you. Please come again.

Thank you for the food.

This is strange.

Sun Ja, stop calling her.

She will call you back.

She's being weird.

She said she'd arrive early in the morning.

She should've been here by now.

I guess she arrived.

- But why? - She must be busy.

What's so hard to give me a call?

She went to China for an important meeting.

She must have a lot of things...

to take care of after she comes back.

But Mi Ri always calls me on time.

Hang on.

Sun Ja, stop calling her. You should just wait.

I'm just too nervous to wait.

I'm afraid if something happened to her.

Why would you feel nervous?

Please stop it and get some rest.

Sun Ja, do you want some coffee?

Min Ho, can you get us some coffee?

Make it sweet.

Okay.

Why am I feeling so nervous now?

- Do Hyun. - Yes?

What's your test score?

- I got 92. - You're good.

I got 85.

Really? Mine is better.

Isn't this delicious?

Mom!

Just stay still.

The teachers will check your hair tomorrow.

I gave you money to get a haircut,

but you spent it to eat some rice cake skewers?

Have you lost your mind?

Stay still...

if you don't want to get scolded tomorrow.

Mom! I'm at the top of the whole school.

What?

- Right here. - Gosh.

Wait. Let me see.

- It says first. - What?

My gosh.

It does say first in here.

My gosh, I'm so proud of you.

Well done.

Gosh.

My gosh.

What will she become when she grows up?

Gosh.

It's perfect. It's done. Take a look.

What do you think?

Why? What's wrong?

I'm not going to school. I just can't.

Mi Ri, just stay still.

I can't cut your hair if you keep moving.

I will make it look nice.

Mi Sun, you need a ruler to do it right.

Gosh, is this what you did using a ruler?

Why did you do that to your sister's hair?

Mom ruined it first,

so I just tried to make it look better.

Gosh, you didn't do it right.

You may be smart,

but you're not a good hairdresser.

Stay still, Mi Hye.

Stop crying.

I'm really good at this.

Just stay still.

Mi Sun, you need a ruler.

Gosh, stay away from her.

Mi Sun.

I said you need a ruler.

Let me cut it a little more.

No.

Use a ruler.

Gosh, stay still.

Is it about...

my second older sister cutting my hair?

Your eldest sister cut your hair already.

And your bangs...

are way too short.

After the book is published,

if there's anything you want for promotion,

you're welcome any time to tell us.

Like an autograph session...

you did before...

or a fan meeting.

Mr. Bang.

Well... Continue.

I've rarely seen Woo Jin laugh like that.

Do you want me to go tell him to keep quiet?

No. It's just about work.

I see.

I want Woo Jin to keep quiet.

What's wrong with him today?

Stop laughing.

Is my story so funny?

No, that's not it.

You're just so funny.

So why did you buy rice cake skewers...

with the money for your haircut?

Did you want to eat it that bad?

You could've just let it go.

The teachers were going to check your hair next day.

Why did you...

spend the money on some rice cake skewers?

I just have to eat rice cake skewers...

when I feel like eating it.

It's just too good to let it go.

And it was right in front of my eyes.

There's a rice cake skewer place...

at a market in my neighborhood.

Sometimes I go there after work...

even before I know it.

You're just like a little kid.

Seriously, stop laughing.

Did your sister cut your hair again?

No.

I'm just joking.

It's good to have fun episodes.

Just make sure...

not to forget about your intention of planning.

The book should be focused...

on universal sentiment,

not special experiences.

Okay. I'm well aware of that.

I'll be working outside.

You can have the office all to yourself.

And don't go out to eat some rice cake skewers.

Mr. Kim.

What's so funny?

I just can't help it.

You should read it later.

Mi Hye's story is so funny.

It's heartwarming and sentimental.

I'm going out.

See you.

What do you want?

I had to come upstairs because it was too noisy.

Never mind.

How can I not mind it?

We're sharing the office.

Then go back to your fancy room.

Why? What now?

Nothing. Forget it.

Go back to your work.

But please...

be quiet from this moment.

I've said this many times, but we share this office.

My team has to work.

Let's be considerate.

Are you happy?

You wench.

What is he saying?

(Episode 42 will air shortly.)

Sun Ja, I closed the restaurant...

and sent Min Ho home.

Why did you prepare a sumptuous feast?

This is not much.

I can't greet a guest with no preparation.

You sure have an open hand.

This is so good.

Sun Ja, it's delightful.

But why isn't Mi Ri calling yet?

I just called her and her phone was turned off.

- It was turned off? - Yes.

She must be in a meeting.

After her business trip to China,

she must be in a meeting with executives.

Hey, there wasn't any news of an accident, was there?

My goodness.

When an accident occurs, they call you immediately.

No news is good news.

She must be busy right now.

But Mi Ri usually calls.

- I should go to her. - No, wait.

Sun Ja, where do you think you are going?

You must greet your guest here.

Wait for a minute.

Mi Ri will come home with a man by her side.

Calm down and sit down.

Gosh. That's strange.

I'll leave the rest up to you.

I have other plans.

All right, Ms. Jeon.

It's your mom.

Can we talk?

Please open the door.

This is so good.

That must be Mi Ri.

It's Mi Ri.

Hello?

It's me, Sun Ja.

Who...

It's me.

Why did you call me?

Is Seung Yeon...

at your home?

No.

Why?

Isn't Mi Ri in the company right now?

She said she'd come home after a business trip.

But I couldn't contact her.

Please tell me...

Seung Yeon's studio password.

Is that Mi Ri's mom?

Why do you want to know that?

I'm in front of her studio right now.

But she won't open the door.

What?

Are you saying Mi Ri is at her home right now?

Hey, is something going on with Mi Ri?

Don't mind it.

What did you say?

It's nothing. It's about the company.

Anyway, tell me the password.

Let's talk.

I said let's talk.

Let's have a talk with...

I have nothing to say.

Seung Yeon.

Why did you come here?

Please leave. Leave!

Seung Yeon.

So what did I tell you?

I told you to break up with Tae Ju.

I told you to end your relationship.

If you listened to what I said and went abroad,

none of this would've happened.

You could've saved your honor at the company.

"My honor at the company"?

That's right.

Isn't it uncomfortable to serve your subordinate...

as your boss all of a sudden?

You should've listened to your mom...

when I told you to end your relationship.

Don't say that you're my mom.

Please stop saying...

you're my mom in front of me!

Seung Yeon.

So what did you do?

What did you do as a mom?

If you were my real mom,

you should've told me the truth.

My honor at the company?

That's not important.

You shouldn't have let...

your daughter to get hurt...

by a man at least.

Instead of telling me that he's out of my league,

you should've told me...

that Han Tae Ju I'm dating with is...

the successor of Hansung group.

That was the internal affairs of the company.

The internal affairs, my foot.

Weren't you afraid that I'd act like you?

Seung Yeon.

When I find out that he is a son of the owner,

just like you,

who has abandoned...

her daughter and ran away for the money.

You were afraid that I'd stick to Tae Ju.

You feared that.

What?

If I stick to him,

you will be in trouble.

When people find out that I'm your daughter,

you were afraid that the Hansung Family,

which you showed loyalty would abandon you.

You were only afraid that you might lose...

the honor and money that you love so much!

That's the reason why you were afraid and terrified!

So?

Were you going to marry Tae Ju or what?

I...

raised Tae Ju myself.

He's like my own son.

What will the world say if you two see each other?

This can't be done.

I'm sorry I couldn't tell you first.

But I had my reasons.

Conglomerates in Korea.

They aren't as easy as you think.

They're beyond your imagination.

You can't bear with them.

Tell me.

Do my life and their lives look...

all rosy to you?

Isn't that why you abandoned me?

Seung Yeon, please!

You must be stuck there...

because it's worth staying.

How your daughter grew up.

How much she grew.

If she was doing good at school or healthy.

The sight of girls in her age...

should've reminded you of your daughter.

Your heart should've dropped...

by seeing girls in their backpack.

It should ache by seeing female workers around you.

That's how a mom should be.

Think of how you were instead.

I was right in front of you,

but you couldn't recognize me.

You didn't even suspect me.

So don't be ridiculous.

Don't even give me excuses.

You are...

just that kind of a woman.

As you wish,

I'll leave.

Instead,

remember this one thing until the day you die.

In the lobby today morning,

to suck up to that family...

and to cover for your dear stepson,

you...

abandoned me again.

And...

all your future misfortunes...

will be because of my curse.

Whenever something bad happens, remember.

That Seung Yeon is...

praying for your misfortunes.

Get out of my house now.

[VIU Ver] KBS2 E42 'My Prettiest Daughter in the World' "Mi Ri Having a Hard Time" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

I'm sorry I'm late, Mr. Chairman.

Welcome. It's okay.

You're busy with work. I understand.

Come have a seat.

We've started eating first.

So...

how did he do today?

Did he show off that he's my son?

Yes.

He was fast at learning...

and quickly got used to his new work too.

He did a great job today.

I heard Kang Mi Ri resigned.

- Yes. - You punk.

You talked all big, and look what happened.

You acted like you knew everything about her.

Didn't you see this from coming?

Goodness.

I thought she'd make a fuss,

but that wench is well aware of her place.

How commendable.

Don't you agree?

Father.

Okay, okay.

Don't glare at your father like that.

Things are finally finding their places.

Good.

Why don't...

the three of us...

have a glass of wine together...

to celebrate his return today?

Here. I'll pour you a glass first.

Congratulations.

Do a good job, punk.

Let me.

I'm here, Uncle.

What are you doing?

Didn't they come?

Take some of the food later.

Mom, I'm here.

Hi.

I thought you wouldn't come.

I finished work early, so I came.

What's going on? Didn't Mi Ri come?

No.

Why? You said she was coming with someone today.

That she asked you to cook for the two.

I don't think they're coming.

Why?

I think something happened to her.

Like what?

And even if it did,

she shouldn't cancel the appointment like this.

She should've let you know first.

That isn't the problem right now.

Her mom called me a while ago.

Since she came back from her business trip,

she's stuck in her studio.

Her mom asked me for her studio's password,

saying Mi Ri wouldn't open the door.

What?

I asked her what it was about,

and she said it was about work, but I doubt it.

They're going to deal with it then.

Her mom is the CEO.

I'm saying this because there seems to be...

more than just that.

If it was simply about work,

she would've called me.

I'm sure there's something.

Definitely.

What is going on?

Hi, Jae Bum. What are you doing?

I'm working.

I heard you work with the same company as Mi Hye's.

That's right.

Why isn't she answering her phone?

She probably had it turned off.

The chief editor here is a total jerk.

He makes her do that.

Doesn't she know what time it is?

How can she still at work?

Gosh, Mi Hye.

Mom said she told Mi Hye this morning.

Did something happen?

It's the day Mi Ri is showing us her boyfriend.

I thought you two were coming together.

Oh, right.

That's right.

We'll be right there, so start eating first.

Well,

things turned sour.

Anyway, Mom is here alone. Come home quickly,

and fill yourselves with food.

I packed some braised short ribs for you,

so take it with you.

Tell Mi Hye to clean up after she's done eating.

There's so much to clean.

Okay.

What are you doing tomorrow?

Me? I'm going to the academy.

- What? - Get ready to leave work.

Your mother is distressed because of Mi Ri.

Why? What about Mi Ri?

Oh, I forgot.

Is everyone there?

Your mother is home alone.

I think something came up.

Mi Sun wants you to come eat and clean up.

Did something happen again?

How did you know, by the way?

Mi Sun called me...

because you didn't answer her call.

Mi Sun, seriously?

Why didn't you tell me?

Mi Sun thought I was coming with you.

It's my family business.

It's not like you're part of my family...

or on my family register.

Why would you come?

I was there when Mi Sun brought Jin Soo over.

He's not your brother-in-law.

Get ready to go home.

To eat and do the dishes.

Hey, you're back early.

I rushed a bit.

You're still here?

You said you had to leave early...

because your family has a guest for dinner.

Yes, but I lost track of time writing.

I'm leaving now.

That's good to hear.

What's this?

- A snack. - A snack?

Rice cake skewers?

What has got into you?

You rarely eat, let alone snack.

You got rice cake skewers?

I wanted this so badly.

Stop eating. You must have dinner.

Mi Sun said Mother's waiting...

Leave me alone.

I must have this first.

It's good.

Are rice cake skewers that good?

You bet.

Enough to lose my bangs over.

Welcome.

Let go of me. What's the matter?

We need to talk.

You always want to talk.

Forget it. Go home.

Kang Mi Hye.

What am I to you?

What do you mean?

Like you said,

I'm not your family...

or on your family register.

What am I to you?

Let's be frank today.

- Be frank? - Yes.

What would you be? You're just...

like Winnie-the-Pooh.

What?

Winnie-the-Pooh?

Welcome.

Mi Ri.

What's going on?

Why is Mom upset about you?

- Kang Mi Hye. - Mi Ri!

Hey. Mi Ri.

Mi Ri. Say something.

Mom, Mi Ri's home.

What on earth happened to...

You...

I'm sorry, Mom.

Something came up.

Like what?

Even if something happened,

you should've called me first.

How could you do this?

Mi Ri.

What's wrong?

Sorry, Mom. Can I take a rest first?

Later.

I'll tell you later.

What's the matter, Mi Ri?

You said you'd bring a guest,

but instead, you came with a suitcase?

Mi Hye, clean up her room.

Okay.

I'm back, Mother.

Hello.

Why are you carrying her? She's heavy.

She just fell asleep after playing all day.

She kept whining, so I let her climb on.

You must be tired. I'll take her.

It's okay, really.

Da Bin, Mom's here.

- Da Bin, Mom's here. - Mom's here.

- Come to Mommy. - Good girl.

There you go.

Careful.

I dropped by my mom's for a bit.

She said she'd cooked.

Do you want some? Shall I set the table?

And call Jin Soo over?

Is your mother well?

Yes, she is.

That's fine then.

Go home and eat.

I'm not hungry.

Mother. Where's Father?

How would I know?

Go on home.

But...

The sun has set

It is dark all around

There is no one

To visit me

(Sukyoung Pharmacy)

Welcome.

- Hi. - Gosh.

How are you?

It's been a while.

It has.

I've been...

stressed out lately and I have indigestion.

I'd like something that aids digestion.

What happened...

that got you so stressed?

This and that.

Do you want a liquid?

Yes, a liquid will work.

If you have pills, I'll take some too.

Okay. Just a moment.

The last time,

you said you'd hurt your ankle.

Are you okay now?

Yes. I'm fine now.

Gosh, you're the best, you know.

You look out for me.

Thank you.

Doctors say...

that as you get older, you must...

be careful not to fall over.

Even if you're late, move slowly.

Even if you're rushing, take caution.

That's what we must do.

I know.

I should've listened to you then...

and I'd have been fine.

When I was a reporter,

I went to the Ministry of Health and Welfare often.

So I know many doctors.

- Do you? - Yes.

You must've been impressive...

if you worked with the government.

I did pretty well for myself back in the day.

Did you have fun with Grandma today?

Yes. Today we played hide and seek.

You can't make her play that.

Her knees hurt.

Mom, I'm really sleepy.

Are you? Go to sleep.

Where's your kindergarten note?

In my backpack.

Mom. I left my backpack...

at Grandma's.

You did.

Don't worry. I'll get it.

Go to sleep.

Okay.

Honey, is there more short ribs?

What a fool.

That's it. That's all.

If you're going to bring food,

couldn't you have brought more?

It's as if you spilled most of it.

Must you act like food is everything?

Why should I?

We do what we do to eat and live.

After you're done,

get Da Bin's backpack from your mom's.

And comfort her while you're there.

She's been so down...

since she fought your dad.

You go if you want.

Like I said before,

Mom has to reflect on herself.

You're her son. Can't you do that much?

Hey, it's no small matter.

Any other family would be a mess right now.

My dad's good enough...

to let it go the way he did.

You men are all the same.

Anyway, must we...

really pay 3,000 dollars for the pottery?

Hey, Mr. Jung.

What? I'm curious.

The guy asked for 3,000 dollars.

My dad smashed it.

He won't ask us to pay for it, will he?

You really are a childish fool.

It's useless to have a chat with you.

Where are you going?

To Mother's to get Da Bin's backpack.

You should've gotten that earlier.

Da Bin always forgets her things...

because she's just like you, Mi Sun.

I found a huge piece. This is great.

I thought that if I lived like this all my life,

I would feel so wronged when I die.

I thought being at home...

all my life would get to me.

I went out to have a life of my own.

My husband thinks I'm having an affair...

without taking care of my granddaughter.

Why would I...

not love my granddaughter?

She's the apple of my eye.

But...

this is just too hard.

Spending all day with her at home...

depresses me a lot.

It reminds me of the time...

I fought with Jin Soo and Jin Joo long ago.

Back then, I just hoped...

they would grow up quickly.

And now I feel like my life will be over...

as I look after my granddaughter.

I'm afraid and scared.

It's so hard.

That's why I left home.

My family has been my everything the whole time.

What can I do at my age?

It's not like I can go on a date or have an affair.

I just felt like...

I wasted my life in vain.

(Han Cheon Ox-bone Soup)

Min Ho. I'll sweep the floor.

You take this dry cloth...

and go wipe the storefront sign.

- Okay. - All right.

Sun Ja.

Why did Mi Ri come?

What's wrong about visiting her mom?

But she came with all her stuff.

Didn't she tell you anything yet?

I'm sure something's going on.

Something huge.

Sometimes life can be hard and you want to cry.

It can't be helped.

All she can do is visit her parent.

And it's my job to take her in.

Just leave her alone.

She will tell me once she feels better.

She packed all her stuff and came to me.

She must be very frustrated.

Gosh.

Hello.

Sun Ja.

Hello, Mother.

Well...

(We thank Lee Mi Young for her cameo performance.)

(My Prettiest Daughter in the World)

Who are you to take responsibility?

- Just give me a chance. - Just go without a word.

She left you.

I'll bring her back.

You have something to tell me, don't you?

I'm so sorry.

Mother, does your back hurt?

I'm too old to carry a kid on my back.

How much do we need to hire a babysitter?

- Where is it? - It's done. Perfect.

- Let's go, Mi Hye. - Why would he drive her?

Are you here to give me dinner?

- What are you doing? - I want to impress you.

- Mr. Chairman. - You better doubt her.

You said you wanted to be successful.

But not by working under you.

I will step down.

How dare you come here?

How could you say that as her mother?

We shouldn't have met.

I'm not going to live like you.
