Food is ready!

I'll be right there!

Let's eat breakfast.

You didn't sleep, did you?

- Your eyes are swollen. - They're also red.

Considering how I maintain top grades, this much is expected.

You can't lose any more weight. You should eat well.

Okay.

Hey! Five minutes left! Five minutes!

- The bus. The bus! - Hey, hey.

- Slowly. - Hurry, hurry.

Have one more. One more. One more!

Wait for me.

- Hurry up. - Thanks for the food! We are off!

- Aigoo, all right. Have a good day! - Okay!

We are leaving now!

[Episode 4]

Dating, my foot. You don't even know who it is.

- I can find out. - You should decide after you find out.

What if he's 160 cm tall and weighs 100 kg?

Judging someone by their looks makes you look bad.

Come on. Say something to her.

- Let her be. - What?

What a beautiful day.

It's the perfect weather to start a romance.

- Hello. - Hi.

- What? - I found out!

What?

"X."

Who is it?

What do we do if it's a weirdo?

Do you know why Romeo and Juliet were ready to die for their love?

- Why? - Because everyone around them...

tried to tear them apart.

Wait for me!

Who is it? How did you find out?

Jae In and Ki Woon saw him on their morning date.

Wow! A date at school, first thing in the morning?

They came super early to be alone, but someone was already there.

At the time, they just thought of him as a nuisance, but... [Yoon Joo Won]

- But? - Oh, sorry.

They got another good look at him and realized who he was.

You know Hae Joon's younger sister, Joo Won?

I found out who left the letter on her desk.

Really? Who is it?

What's up?

Oh, my!

It's Kang Hae Joon!

He's the class president, he's intelligent, and I heard he's even handsome and tall.

He even gave a speech at the entrance ceremony as the top student.

We don't need to separate them.

Good for her.

What?

We must see him with our own eyes to feel at ease.

He's in Grade 10, Class 2.

His smiling face...

is more than pretty.

You're certain, right? Can I ask him now?

There are witnesses.

This might be impulsive,

but I won't back out.

You found out it was me?

I was going to tell you after I prepared myself.

We saved time, so it worked out.

Are you free to go out to eat today?

- With you? - Yes.

Sure.

Shall we?

Not bad.

Not bad at all.

Here you go. Enjoy.

- Spicy? - What?

- Is it spicy? - Yes.

- It's spicy. - It is.

How spicy.

So spicy.

I'm full, though.

Eat up.

- Joo Won! - Yes.

Drink up.

How can people eat cake?

It's too sweet for me.

I thought your bus station was on the other side.

I can go after seeing you off.

I think you grew up so bright and cheerful.

I get that a lot.

My mom said a person's family environment is really important.

However, that feels like a stereotype when applied to you.

Why? I have an incredible family environment.

Aren't you from a single-parent household?

Is having a single parent considered a bad family environment?

- Do you have both a mom and a dad? - What?

I do. Most people do.

Do you have an oppa?

Do you mean a "hyung"?

No, I'm an only child.

I have two oppas.

So, don't I have a better family environment?

I have a higher headcount.

"H-Headcount"?

What's wrong with not having a mom? Is that my sole identity?

Would you like if I said, "Wow! Being an only child, you must be extremely lonely."

"You must've grown up to be self-centered with a bad personality,"

"but you turned out quite well."?

No.

No need to see me off.

From now on, act like you don't know me.

So, haven't you heard from your mom yet?

- No. - What an interesting bunch you are.

I know.

My goodness, you're all so unfortunate.

My mom said a person's family environment is really important.

Aren't you from a single-parent household?

It isn't that we don't have a good family environment.

Each of us...

is special.

He has a good personality, so he has tons of friends.

He's good-looking and he's as tall as I am!

- Oh. - I see.

Where did such a nice kid come from?

One would think you're the one with a boyfriend.

What? Don't you like him?

Don't judge a book by its cover.

It must be going well since it's late and she isn't home.

Yoon Joo Won hit the jackpot!

Call Joo Won and ask if she's almost home.

All right.

I'm home!

Wow...

Thank you for the food!

I thought you ate out.

We had tteokbokki. I have more room for rice.

Why are you home already?

I guess you didn't really like him.

What's there not to like? What happened?

- We decided to pretend it never happened. - Why?

Why would you do that?

Did...

Did you stuff your face with food in front of him?

Then what?

He doesn't like sweet things.

Tteokbokki?

Sure, you can rinse it in water.

Carrots in kimbap?

You can pick them out. But...

he doesn't eat cake.

There was cake right in front of us!

That place is known for its cakes.

Can you believe it? Well, can you?

Right? Unbelievable, isn't it?

- What? - Do you call that a valid reason?

Seeing how picky you are, you're far from being ready for a relationship.

Why? That kid lacks sense.

- Right? - Yes.

Are you serious?

You can date him if you like him so much.

- Is that it? - Yes.

That's all.

You said you'd be satisfied with a pretty smile.

Yes.

- You said he was more than pretty! - Yes.

- I heard you rejected Joon Ho. - What high standards.

It's because she hangs out with her oppas.

I can't believe someone like Joo Won dumped him.

Lee Joon Ho isn't like he used to be.

What's so bad about someone like Joo Won?

One would think each of you is in a relationship.

Hey, what's wrong with Joo Won?

It's fine. Don't.

Hey, it's Lee Joon Ho.

- Lee Joon Ho is here. - Why? Why did he come?

- Didn't she reject him? - What's happening?

It's Lee Joon Ho.

It was my fault.

We can start by being friends.

Please reconsider.

Did you tell anyone about what you said at the bus stop?

If you didn't tell anyone, I'll think about it.

"Bus stop"?

What happened?

Nothing much.

What happened?

Friends, my foot.

Don't give him false hope and just make it clear to him.

I'll take care of it. Mind your own business.

You told me to tell you everything. You should do the same.

I meant, let's talk about it, not meddle in each other's business.

You didn't answer your phone.

Go ahead.

You look the same. I recognized you right away.

You must be surprised that I showed up unexpectedly.

You called ahead, so I'm not surprised.

You're as sharp as ever.

If I didn't pick up,

you should be sharp enough to know it was intentional.

I've been quite distant all this time. I understand if you're disappointed.

"Disappointed"?

You haven't contacted me in ten years.

You didn't answer my calls, either.

I'm staying in Busan until winter.

I'm nearby, so I'll bring So Hui for a visit.

Oh, right. You've never met So Hui, right?

She's seven years old.

How can two siblings not have seen each other at all? That's absurd.

- Right? - Don't say it like it isn't your fault.

You had no intention of introducing us.

Wow, they look exactly the same.

How? They don't look alike at all.

Why did you bring me here?

So we can save him if we need to.

Save him from what?

Let's get out of here and not interfere.

You can leave by yourself. I'll stay!

Do what you want!

What's his problem?

Must you treat me like this even after ten years?

Exactly.

Why did you suddenly appear after ten years?

To forgive you.

I want to try to forgive you.

Forgive me for what?

Don't say anything you'll regret later.

Kids who mistreat their parents reap what they sow.

Say what to whom? Why?

"Reap what they sow"?

Will I be punished if I don't welcome my mom, who abandoned me?

"Forgive"?

- What sin did I commit against you? - Will you continue to feign ignorance?

You and So Jeong...

It was just the two of you.

You know that San Ha was there, too.

He was alone with So Jeong.

What was he doing then?

How dare you...

talk about So Jeong?

Why did you make me?

If you're done talking, I'll get to the point.

Grandma calls me too often.

I want her to call less. That's what I came here to say.

Do you think she'll listen to me?

I hope you...

live a happy and good life.

Are you okay?

I'm okay.

I wish...

I could live a happy and good life.

No one is here. No one is here!

I didn't see it coming.

Is that all you have to say? Do you want to die?

You just saved me, so why would you kill me?

Don't smile. How can you smile right now?

Look at you.

Look at you tearing up in shock.

- How old are you, crying in the street? - Whose fault is that?

Even a kindergartener knows you don't cross at a red light.

You couldn't even tell it was a red light.

You recklessly tried to cross the street! You're the one!

You're going to tear my uniform.

What did Ahjumma say?

We agreed to tell each other everything.

We agreed not to keep secrets.

She scolded me.

What did she scold you about?

She said I'll be punished.

“Punished”?

Well, she's right. You always tease me and Kang Hae Joon.

You even teased me about my report card.

If you tease people like that, you'll be punished.

Forget that. I hope you get punished!

I used up all my calories saving your life.

Shall we go eat some cake?

Hamburgers first.

- Is it good? - Yes.

Have one at a time.

♫ There was a time when I was filled with hopes about my dream ♫

Should we get this one?

This one?

That one?

- Let's get this one. - Yes, that one.

- Is it good? - This place is super famous.

People come from far away to eat here. This is crazy.

♫ Back then, we were the world ♫

What do you think?

I like it.

Not "I like it."

"It's delicious!"

Yes, it's delicious.

♫ We were dazzling and so united ♫

It's delicious.

I told him to leave because he was getting sand everywhere!

Yes, of course.

I didn't know! I shook the sand off before I stepped in!

Exactly.

I'm sick of this! He made a mess!

- I can't stand her! - Take care.

Aigoo, he left.

- Thank you. Bye. - No problem.

Go inside now.

Why do their feelings get hurt so easily?

I'm glad it didn't escalate any further.

It's odd. Just having someone listen calms them down.

Someone's standing over there.

Hello!

How can I help you?

Well...

Did you eat?

I'm hungry.

This is the best restaurant around here.

Everything is produced locally.

See that? It's all produced locally.

What brings you all the way here?

My husband opened a hospital branch in Busan.

We decided to move down here until it gets settled.

Really?

Yes. Since So Hui is in kindergarten,

she and I were going to stay in Seoul,

but my husband said the family shouldn't live apart.

If possible, a family should indeed live together.

You did well.

I just met San Ha.

I told him I wanted to see him from now on.

What did he say?

Did you think he would be happy to see you?

I'm doing this for San Ha's sake.

Think about his future, too. He's in Grade 12 now. Will you do nothing?

If I take San Ha with me to Seoul, I can get him admissions consultations–

How can you say that after abandoning him like that?

San Ha can understand me now at his age.

Did you get older and suddenly understand everything about life?

Did you suddenly understand people you couldn't before?

What? "A family shouldn't live apart"?

Married couples become strangers once they divorce.

But what about their children?

When you left to save yourself, did you think of San Ha as your child?

He might not say it, but he waited...

- waited for your call— - He has become so brash, unlike before.

Should he be an angel and wait on your every word?

Why? Why must only San Ha understand you?

Can't you try to understand San Ha?

If you're his mom, can't you say, "He has a good reason for acting that way"?

Be it love or hate, we are parent and child!

Why not say so ten years ago?

What can I do about something in the past?

Aigoo, how convenient for you. I wish I was like you in that regard!

Won't you just leave San Ha alone?

He still wakes up in the middle of the night.

Crap!

The child's opinion is important, [Law Office ANDA]

but the biological father is at a legal advantage.

This isn't easy.

Would you like some jujubes?

What do you do with jujubes?

It's 3,000 won. I'll give you plenty.

Okay.

Yes.

I have a date today.

Go on. I'll take care of him.

Mr. Yoon.

His ex-wife came by today.

Okay.

Jujubes.

San Ha can't sleep these days.

She said you can sleep through the night after a glass of brewed jujubes.

Aigoo, thank you.

Both Hae Joon and San Ha will be adults in college next year.

Why all the fuss now?

Did she meet San Ha, too?

Is he okay?

I didn't ask him.

Why didn't you?

He and I have an unspoken rule.

We don't needlessly mention his mom.

Well, now's the time.

Why don't you talk to each other about important things?

How can he rely on his dad

when you keep avoiding things?

Avoiding what?

Whose fault is it that he's forced to be an adult before he's 20?

Sit down with San Ha and have a proper conversation.

Talk about what? I have nothing to ask him.

Are you interrogating a criminal?

Or conducting an interview?

Just ask him how he feels and if he's okay.

Simply asking the child will probably ease his mind.

Your job is to listen to the entire town's woes.

Why can't you listen to your own child?

Do you understand?

Geez, I understand.

Don't embarrass yourself and get up. Let's go.

- Take care. - Thank you.

Aren't you coming?

I'll assume you'll follow.

Mom!

So Hui!

How was your first day at kindergarten?

Did you have fun?

What did Oppa say?

Did he say I can visit him?

Oppa will be surprised if you visit him so suddenly.

I gave Oppa a heads-up that So Hui wants to see him.

Does Oppa want to see So Hui, too?

Of course!

If it's too bitter, you can add some water.

But if you add too much, you'll go to the bathroom often at night.

What about Ahjusshi? Doesn't he get any?

Forget him.

He will stop drinking once he gets a sour stomach.

This won't do. Have a glass right now.

Why did he drink all of a sudden?

She also visited him, didn't she?

Ahjumma?

What did she say to Ahjusshi?

What did she say that he drank so much?

That isn't your business.

That's for Ahjusshi and San Ha to discuss.

It's better if everyone discusses it together.

Is it that bad for a mom to visit her son?

Why are you mad?

Me? I'm not mad.

I told Mom not to look for me anymore.

I'll tell Dad that, too.

Well, even so...

Happy, now?

Let them talk it out.

Hae Joon just misses his mom. That's why.

Happy with what?

Tell me! Well?

What should I be happy about?

There's no need to be jealous.

Why would I be jealous of you?

Exactly. I said there's no need to be jealous.

Mom still blames me for So Jeong's death,

and I want her to keep believing that.

So she can continue to blame me.

I'm sure she had her reason for not being home for two days.

And she doesn't care that we didn't have anything to eat. I just...

I just want her to keep believing what she believes.

What if I continue to see her?

What if I break down and tell her everything?

Even so, she's your mom.

- And you're her son. - In this world,

toxic families also exist.

My mom and I are like that.

Sorry.

Were you happy your dad found you?

Did you think, "We are still father and son"?

There's nothing to be jealous about.

You always erase the tiniest bit of apology I feel by acting distant.

Leave.

Give me a break.

Saying that in front of someone who can't even remember her mom's face.

Let's get some ice cream.

What?

You two have a blast.

Leave him be.

Eating ice cream together won't change anything.

Then what will?

Sugar when you're down.

It's therapy for everybody.

How do you feel now? Better?

Yes.

Dad said Hae Joon just misses his mom.

I know.

You do?

That's why he answers every spam call.

Just in case.

That's true.

How does he plan to survive in this harsh world?

You're worried about him.

Just a heads up. You don't have to worry about me.

Even if people call us unfortunate and such,

it doesn't affect me one bit.

"Cheerful for someone who doesn't have a mom"?

That doesn't bother me at all.

Should I remember I don't have a mom and cry when I see something funny?

That's ridiculous.

What?

Who said you're cheerful for someone without a mom?

That was just an example.

You know that I naturally smile often.

That's good stuff.

Ahjusshi made that just for me.

Really?

There's more at Joo Won's house.

- I can get more. - Okay.

Good night.

Well...

is there anything that's bothering you?

I heard you met Mom.

I told her not to come back anymore.

Did she agree?

I'll talk to Mom again and make sure she understands.

Don't worry

and go to sleep.

Good night.

Have some ice cream.

Now's your only chance.

Are you crying? Is that why you won't open the door?

If you open the door now, I'll fold laundry for a week.

Reconcile. Why fight when you don't even want to?

Come out and eat. Don't eat while crying alone.

You have to brush your teeth, too.

I'm sick and tired of you.

Do you form a bond only when you raise a child?

DNA! What about my DNA?

Could he have existed if it weren't for me?

Whom does he need to thank for being so tall?

But Boss, if you can't convince him with money,

why not use a different approach?

"A different approach"?

Well, like...

embracing him. Embrace?

Sunlight! Like the sunlight.

"Sunlight"?

Sunlight?

[Haedong High School]

Hello.

Do you know me?

You're Joo Won's Oppa.

She's still young.

She isn't mentally prepared to be in a relationship.

Just stay friends, okay? Friends.

Got it?

What do you like about Yoon Joo Won?

You know nothing about each other.

She's a very cheerful person.

Wait a minute.

Did you tell her that, too?

Tell her what?

Did you tell her she's cheerful for someone without a mom?

Joo Won said not to tell anyone.

What's the special occasion? Is the coach treating us?

Your father treated us.

He said something about sunlight.

"Sunlight"?

- Thanks for the food! - Sure, sure.

Thanks, Hyungnim.

- But Dad should be at the store right now. - No.

Your wealthy father.

What?

Hey, I was eating that.

Crap, are you showing off that you have a rich dad?

He's just hungry.

You said that ahjusshi isn't your dad.

You guys better not accept a crumb from that ahjusshi from now on.

Okay.

I guess the son of a wealthy family isn't satisfied with mere hamburgers?

Eat as much as you want.

You scumbag.

What did you say?

How could you call me a scumbag?

What, you prick! Am I wrong?

- You prick! - Hey, that's enough.

Get lost!

Kang Hae Joon.

What?

Come with me if you're done.

I don't want to.

It's about Joo Won.

This better be serious.

Joo Won's brothers dragged Joon Ho into the gym storage.

Hey!

Your oppas are ganging up on Joon Ho!

What are you saying?

I heard they dragged him to the gym storage.

Who said you're cheerful for someone without a mom?

"Ganging up"?

Are they thugs?

Hey, Yoon Joo Won!

Hello, Sunbaenims.

Hey.

Tell him.

No, Joo Won said not to tell anyone.

What's this about?

What did you say to Joo Won about "Someone without a mom"?

Tell him.

You...

What did you spew to Joo Won?

Joo Won...

said not to tell anyone...

Hey, slow down!

They probably won't hit him or anything!

Who said I'm worried about him?

She isn't always smiling, is she?

- No! I didn't say any– - He didn't!

He never directly said anything about not having a mom! He just...

He just...

implied I have a difficult family environment.

Did you really say that?

You told me not to tell anyone.

Then why was he grabbing your collar?

What did you spew to Joo Won?

Joo Won said not to tell anyone.

I mean...

It's just...

it wasn't a big deal. Not really.

And even if.

We hear it all the time. The townspeople always say that to us.

It doesn't affect me at all!

If it truly didn't, you would've told us.

Not even friends, got it?

That's up to Joo Won to decide.

How are you and Kang Hae Joon so alike?

How?

Hae Joon did that when his biological dad appeared.

He said there was no need to tell you and Ahjusshi.

He couldn't handle that his biological dad abandoned him

before he was even born.

But he said, "Let's not tell them. What's the use in telling them?"

"I'll just shoulder the pain by myself."

But that's not right.

You also want to know if something happens to Hae Joon and I.

If something angers us, you'd be angry with us.

If something good happens, you'd want to be happy with us.

Only when you're okay

can Hae Joon and I be okay.

I'll tell you everything from now on.

For real. I swear it.

You swear it, too.

Welcome!

Hello.

It has been a while.

Oh, yes. It has been a while.

San Ha isn't picking up and I felt uncomfortable entering an empty house.

I can wait here, right?

Yes, of course.

Why isn't he coming?

You feel better now, right?

Mom. Mom! Isn't that San Ha Oppa?

- I'll be right down. - Okay.

Call Oppa.

O-Oppa.

You have to speak up.

Oppa!

So Hui, say hi.

Oppa?

Why are you in the kitchen?

Then should I sit out there?

Why don't you go home?

It'll seem like I'm avoiding her if I go now.

I'll do some dishes while I'm here.

Didn't Dad call you?

I'm sure he told you not to come back.

He did.

Mom...

It's fine.

It's because Oppa is seeing you for the first time.

She resembles her, right?

So?

So what if she does?

Who?

- Yoon Joo Won! - Yes?

Take the child outside.

Sure.

Can you buy one for Oppa, too?

Oppa has a lot at home.

Do you like Kim San Ha that much?

Mom said when she and Dad go to heaven much later,

Oppa and I will only have each other.

What are you saying?

Whether it's three or four people, we can all live together.

- We can? - Of course.

Do you want to come with us, Unni?

Where?

This is a secret.

I'm not supposed to tell anyone.

What is it?

I won't tell anyone.

Mom said once it's winter break,

we are going to Seoul with Oppa.

"Seoul"?

Yeah! Then he will eat and play with So Hui every day!

Really?

- I'm not going. - Reconsider.

I told you last time.

That I wish you a happy and good life.

A life that doesn't include me.

What about college?

I'll attend one here.

Reconsider that as well.

You, me, and So Hui...

[Dad, Happy Parents' Day] [Dad, please cheer up]

It makes sense for a family to live together.

I already am.

I just want to live with you.

Just take care of him for a short while.

I'll bring your favourite hamburgers when I come back, Hae Joon.

I don't need them!

Don't buy anything. Just come back quickly!

[Mr. Yoon's Kalguksu]

Why don't you ask for my opinion even once?

Does my opinion not matter?

Please leave.

We need to open for dinner hours.

And don't come back, if possible.

Pardon...

You don't have to talk to her like that.

Let's talk later.

Are you upset right now?

Should I tell her to come back another time?

Do I need to repeat myself?

- Are you that stupid? - What?

Mom and I don't have that kind of relationship.

No, what I meant was—

At least your mom had the decency to lie that she'll return for you.

What?

When your mom returns, you can do as you wish.

I won't interfere, either.

She wasn't lying!

She said she'd return once...

once she saved up enough.

Do you still believe that?

See?

Why do you get angry with me when there are other kids with their moms?

In other people's eyes, you and I are...

just children abandoned by their moms!

Hey! You go to Haedong High, right?

Hang out with us!

Some group of thugs!

- Do you like her? - What if I do?

I'll harass her.

I'll buy you something prettier next time.

Isn't this a pretty blatant sign?

Don't you know why I'm avoiding you?

You should help if you see San Ha setting the table.

I wonder if it would be better for you to go with your biological dad.

I'll be more mindful from now on.

You should forget your mom, too.
