Original subtitles

I have feelings for Eun-o?

I like Eun-o?

My goodness!

What are you doing there?

My gosh!

Soo-jung, you ruined it!

I was going to surprise her like this!

Is this for real?

He was hiding to surprise me?

He's showing a lot of new sides.

What's with that dress?

It's obviously an outfit for a date.

It's a long walk from the bus stop to where she lives.

Gosh, that brat is fearless.

Ji Eun-o!

Eun-o!

Chief Cha, you've done a hanok remodeling project, right?

I'm doing one soon.

Will you be available?

Got it.

I'll let you know when the schedule is out.

Okay, bye.

I like you. I mean it.

I don't have to give a chance to someone who I think is incompatible with me, do I?

How am I not compatible with you?

I just need to understand.

I can never see you romantically,

and I have no intention to do so whatsoever.

Jeong Bo-a of Haneul Construction.

This was the reason why we were not compatible.

From this moment on, we're over.

We're no longer senior and junior.

Understand?

Ji-hyeok got a new office?

Gosh, this punk.

When Ms. Ji works overtime, drive her home.

I moved to a new office.

Come early today.

I'll be waiting at home. The restaurant is closed today.

What's going on?

Eun-o, what time do you leave work today?

Ji-hyeok asked me to drive you.

He asked you?

I'm driving you from today.

You got hurt because of me. I can't let someone else do you a favor.

Besides, we're business partners. What can others say?

I'm lost for words.

He said he'd do it with a smirk on his face.

Maybe it was a joke.

I'm going home early, though.

And no thank you for morning carpools.

I'm not seriously injured.

Whoever comes, I'll go alone.

Was he joking around?

That was why he smirked?

He's become so weird.

I'm home.

Mom, is something wrong?

It smells like beef bone soup.

Did Kang-o come back?

I'm making it so you can have it for breakfast.

Me?

Why all of a sudden…

Follow me.

Look at you trying to read my face.

Eun-o.

Why do you walk on eggshells around me?

I don't walk on eggshells around you.

I'm caught between you two.

You're my daughter, and Kang-o is my son.

So I'm worried about my ungrateful son and my heartbroken daughter.

But why do you walk on eggshells around me?

"In any case, Kang-o is her birth son. It must be harder on her."

You walk on eggshells around me because that's what you're thinking.

I keep thinking…

that Kang-o is right.

I didn't agree…

but it's true I took what was meant for him.

What he said keeps coming to my mind.

I kind of want to do as he wants.

Who says it's true?

As if there's a certain budget for raising a child.

Like 100 for a child, 50 for two children,

and 33 for three children?

It doesn't work like that.

You raise your children

in your given circumstances.

I've never thought I split what I had to raise the two of you.

Even if it'd been him alone,

your dad wouldn't have done everything he asked.

You know what he was like.

If Kang-o had been a girl,

he might've gotten a few more shoes and clothes.

But it wasn't like there was a certain budget for him.

Still, it's hard on you.

Of course it's hard.

But that's part of what comes with being your mom.

Even if Kang-o had been the one staying,

I would've struggled just the same.

Eun-o.

This is…

what the three of us needed to go through

from the moment Kang-o found out about it.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I'm sorry.

So, don't you…

think about going back for him.

I actually went to see him.

Because he's my child.

I needed to go and see where he was and how he was doing.

I was relieved to see him.

At least, he wasn't starving.

Mom, go get him.

I'm okay with it.

Until he realizes himself that he's wrong, I'm not bringing him back.

No.

He's done his military duty, and he's 24.

That's enough to be on his own.

You know his situation. Can you bear with it?

Why don't you understand?

If you move out, how will I survive with Kang-o alone?

Kang-o must get through this, or it'll be his loss.

He'll lose his older sister.

Thank you, Mom.

I'm sorry.

Promise me!

Don't ever think

about going to appease him or bring him home.

Why wouldn't you get what I mean?

You're smart and clever.

You are my daughter.

Kang-o is…

my son.

Okay?

Okay, I get it.

I mean it, Mom.

I'm sorry.

- You'll quit for real? - Yes, jackass.

I've had enough for your cheap attitude.

You read my text, right? Wire the money now.

I did.

It's the minimum hourly wage.

What?

You didn't bring 20 million won,

but we still provided food and shelter, you pathetic beggar.

Eun-o.

Hello, Ms. Jeong.

I'm going to Ji-hyeok's office. Join me.

Well, I haven't prepared anything yet.

You're business partners.

You don't need to bring him any gifts.

Then let me carry it.

What happened to your wrist?

I sprained it a little. It's okay. Let me.

Welcome, Hyun-soo.

Oh, you're here too, Ms. Ji.

What's going on between you guys?

Why are you so polite to her, Ji-hyeok?

Oh, the thing is…

Well,

I wanted our relationship to be strictly based on business,

so I suggested this.

- What? - Oh, right.

This is Cho Kyeong-su, our team leader.

And this is Cha Cheol-min, in charge of our website.

This is the big senior of Constant Value,

Architect Jeong Hyun-soo.

I'm Cho Kyeong-su. I've heard a lot about you.

I'm Cha Cheol-min.

Hello, I'm Jeong Hyun-soo.

What's going on? Did you wear a suit to greet me?

Oh, our mobile application is being released today.

I had a meeting with the development team.

This is from Ms. Jeong. It's a coffee machine.

We'll make good use of it.

Anyway, your office is

smaller than expected.

It's too soon to spend a lot on operation. We need to save money.

Why didn't you stay until you could afford a bigger office?

- Why did you move out in a rush? - My point exactly.

It was because of you. The storage room was too small.

It's all the same.

The three of us are hardly in the office together.

I know.

It's fishy, Ji-hyeok.

What's this awkward air between you business partners?

That's not it.

Oh, about the turnkey service request--

Oh, that.

Talk to Mr. Cho about it.

- Me? - Yes.

Well, okay.

Excuse me, Hyun-soo.

Hello?

Where are you? Meet me.

I'm having a meeting with guests in the office.

Come out when they leave. I'll text you where to meet.

What was that?

It was childish of me to intercept her yesterday morning.

What?

Didn't you call me out because it got you mad?

It's not the only reason,

but let's stay on that topic while we're at it.

Do you like Eun-o?

What?

What nonsense is that?

That's the only explanation for your ridiculous actions.

You teased me first.

My business partner hurt my wrist because of me,

so I wanted to take responsibility.

Remember what you said?

You said I should get Eun-o's permission and drove me into a corner.

I felt teased and pulled a prank.

As far I know, you aren't one to pull a prank.

What are you saying? I'm telling you I did.

Is this why you called me out?

Hey, I'm busy.

Gosh, let's go.

I'm not finished talking.

What's gotten into you? You're scaring me.

You're acting strange.

You were strange, and you've been strange.

Very strange for a while.

When you went off the grid, you never reached for me even once.

You came back suddenly without a word to start a business.

You rejected my investment.

Right.

I waited, thinking you'd tell me in time.

But now…

you even moved to a new office without a word.

What do you take me for?

Am I even your friend?

Are you in love with me or something?

You have so many requests and complaints.

What's your definition of a friend?

What does it mean to you?

Why must I consider you as a friend according to your expectations?

Lee Ji-hyeok, take that back.

Take what back?

You believe as if our friendship is grand.

Want me to take back that I don't?

You called me out to check if I had feelings for Eun-o.

Don't talk about friendship as if we're actually friends.

Say that again.

Say that again!

I didn't tell you.

I couldn't tell you.

Because you abandoned me first, you bastard!

You abandoned me first.

When you came to see me at the emergency room…

you left without saying anything.

You neither comforted me nor got mad at me.

You took the call, came,

paid for the hospital bill, bought me food,

secretly put a million won in my pocket, and left.

You didn't do anything.

Once you hear back from where you applied, you'll come back, right?

You assumed I'd get another job

and go back to my monotonous life.

"See your reality and come back. Get a job and live humbly."

You swallowed that remark

because you criticized my marriage

and my choice from the beginning.

"You deserve it, punk."

You thought it was the best you could do to spare me that remark.

You didn't even bother…

to ask…

why your friend, Lee Ji-hyeok…

chose to marry Jeong Bo-a.

You didn't even think to hear from me.

This is why you abandoned me.

So, tell you what? Discuss what?

After abandoning me, you expect us to be friends? Bastard!

You're a horrible fighter.

And you dared to fight me.

If you feel wronged, say so.

I had no idea.

Yes, you're right.

I thought so.

I'm sorry, Ji-hyeok.

You must've felt lonely.

Don't make me tear up. It's too late.

Get up.

You may not realize it…

but I couldn't even afford to take this out on you.

I needed…

to survive.

I know…

just how tough it has been for you…

ever since you came back to Seoul.

Happy now?

Satisfied?

Relieved.

I should've picked a fight and gotten messy with you sooner.

Gosh, get up.

Seong-jae.

Why do you sound serious again? It's scaring me.

Why are you working so hard lately?

You work overtime all the time.

Your eyes have changed. You're full of energy.

As far as I know,

you used to work at your father's company because you had no choice.

Like you?

You were expected to be an office worker your whole life.

You lived without a dream, like me.

Are you saying you've got a dream?

Eun-o.

What?

I'm going to go for her.

Hey.

Are you out of your mind?

Did you forget how your parents ruined your marriage?

Look. They'd be even worse.

They'd hear about her adoption.

I told you countless times that you could never be with her.

Your parents won't leave her be.

- I'll stop them. - How? How can you?

I'm going to be someone very useful at the company.

So that my father needs me.

Then…

I'll tell her how I feel.

You're growing the power to face your father?

Yes.

So that if Eun-o accepts my heart,

my father can't get her away from me.

I wonder why I listened to you nine years ago.

I wonder why I didn't have this idea on my own.

If I did then…

I may not have had that marriage.

Right, I was married for a short while.

But it's…

her choice to make after she hears about everything.

And Ji-hyeok,

you have no right or duty of any kind anymore

because she no longer thinks of you as her senior.

Why? You have nothing to say?

Are you surprised?

Would you not be if you were me?

You've changed a lot, Seong-jae.

So, do I have your support?

Good luck.

Let's go. You said you were busy.

You just had to meet me in this dirt, didn't you?

Hey, this is humiliating.

Who's more humiliated?

I'll be humiliated even more.

Of all the people in this area,

your staff must be much less than those at my company.

You're the heir, and I'm the boss.

Dang.

Oh, right. Thanks to you,

I'm now Angel's registered investor.

You made an investment?

I joined Sunny Investment Association because of you.

I invested in one more.

It's quite fun to watch, you see.

That's unexpected of you.

Let's go.

We're business partners. Call me Mr. Lee.

He shamelessly had the nerve.

Oh, you're here too, Ms. Ji.

Talk to Mr. Cho about it.

Did I do anything to upset you, Mr. Lee?

Not at all.

Look at this.

If I didn't do anything wrong, why is he being like this?

Eun-o.

Why so serious?

The thing is,

Mr. Lee is suddenly acting weird.

What do you mean?

He's suddenly giving me the cold shoulder.

He's acting weird. He wasn't like this until two days ago.

Maybe he can't stand you anymore.

What do you mean?

You've been on his case since he came back.

Don't you remember?

I had a good reason.

Yes, you could think so.

But once in a while, I wondered why you weren't being yourself.

I see.

I guess it's your turn today.

I said it'd be just me.

Ji-hyeok, that punk, is mischievous.

It'll be only until this week, though.

I've let myself bother you because I couldn't use my left hand.

I couldn't manage.

I clearly said I'd drive you until the burglar is caught.

That burglar broke into this café,

not where I live.

I forgot.

Besides, I have the whistle, pepper spray and a stun gun.

I'm fully armed, so I'm not scared a bit.

Get in first, Ms. Ji.

Ms. Ji?

Well, since you're not exactly my junior.

Gosh, hurry in.

2025 DOUBLE S STARTUP DREAMON BUSINESS PLAN

GAON FOUNDATION

I like this three-person sofa,

but what if all three want to rest at the same time?

That didn't cross my mind.

I'd like a resting space for each artist next to their working space.

So they can rest on an arm chair with their legs on a stool.

There's a bed, but the bedroom can be stuffy.

You really think about things in the artists' shoes.

I'd really like this to be done, but is there not enough space?

Not really. I'll reconsider it.

It won't be easy, but I'll give it a try.

Please do so.

By the way, Ms. Ko.

May I get contact information for the three artists?

I'd like to know their preferences and habits--

No.

This has to be a surprise.

You're 100% right,

but one is bound to have expectations if they hear something in advance.

Expectations can be nasty.

"I'd like this to be done this way." "Can't you do it that way?"

It could cause trouble and conflict between them and you, Eun-o.

They may think you're selfishly taking their charity work for granted.

No, absolutely not.

Everything you say is understandable.

Let's create the best result we can with care and affection.

Got it.

You know, right? No rush.

Sure.

I'll be going, then.

Wait.

Give me five more minutes with you.

Excuse me?

You remind me of someone.

Your face feels like a reflection of someone from time to time.

I don't know if you do resemble her

or if it's just a delusion from my longing heart,

but I'd like to see you without saying anything today.

I know it can be rude, but still.

Sure.

I have something to focus on alone today, so I'll work outside.

I'm off to visit the Hyeonmyeong Apartment site too.

You get to work quietly alone, Cheol-min.

I'm always quiet.

- Hello. - Hello.

One iced Americano, please.

Sure.

- Min-woo, one iced Americano. - Okay.

- To go, right? - No.

Where's my boss?

Ji-hyeok? He didn't come.

He stepped outside to work quietly.

Really? Then why didn't he come here?

Mr. Lee?

Talk to me outside.

How did she know?

How did you know I was here?

Exactly. Why are you here?

I mean…

what's wrong with you?

I don't understand. What are you talking about?

You said I didn't do anything wrong.

So, tell me why you're acting like this.

And what's wrong with you?

Did I do something wrong?

You didn't, but you're acting weird and it bothers me.

It includes now. Why are you at this cafe?

What did I even do?

I'm so used to Café Agit

that I slack off.

That's why I came to another café.

You call that an excuse?

You can't focus in an unfamiliar place.

Look.

I know that much, after all this time we've known each other.

We've known each other as senior and junior for ten years.

Senior?

Have we?

Treat me as your business partner.

Like when you first suggested a business partnership.

Like how you treated me in the beginning.

Look. You barged in even though I said no,

and to be honest, you were pretty shameless.

So, what's with this cold shoulder?

You don't like talking with me, Ms. Ji.

This is what you wanted. What's the problem?

I didn't like talking with you personally.

I mean business-wise here.

And why did you bother me so much before?

I hated you and despised you.

I told you not to talk to me. I even wanted us to be strangers.

Why did you insist on acting friendly with me back then?

You're hitting way too close to home, Ms. Ji.

If I'd known you'd be fickle like this,

I wouldn't have agreed to this partnership.

You said it'd be all business.

Well, I…

I just have too many business concerns.

Anyway, come to the café for a meeting at 10:00 a.m. tomorrow.

If you don't, I'll go to your office.

Not tomorrow.

I'll be very busy with prior plans.

If you have anything to discuss, talk to Mr. Cho.

We're back to square one.

I'm busy with work. Excuse me.

Why is he so fickle?

I'm starting to hate him again.

What's wrong with her?

It's 150,000 won.

Please check.

I worked part-time to save this money.

I withdrew this to make Korean beef galbi for my son's birthday.

You work part-time, ma'am?

Yes.

I asked, "Isn't it your first time seeing an old woman working part-time at my age?"

He was shocked and said it was.

I can tell you were proud, Ms. Ok-rye.

Anyway, why did you suddenly withdraw that much money?

I'm going to make Korean beef galbi for my son's birthday.

And treat you to lunch, Mr. Jang-soo.

What? Me?

You called us friends and colleagues.

You've bought me a lot of snacks.

Anything you want to eat?

It'll be on me.

Well…

there's one thing I felt too embarrassed to eat alone.

I can eat alone at a gukbap place or another restaurant.

But I just couldn't have tteokbokki and fritters alone.

It's even more delicious to buy with the money I earned.

I know how that feels.

- Mr. In-law. - Oh, come on!

We're friends.

Gosh, okay. Fine.

Mr. Jang-soo.

When do you think we'll die?

Maybe because people live until 100 these days,

but look at how big my appetite is.

I digest food just fine too.

Ms. Ok-rye, do you want to die?

I don't know.

They say it's good to be alive, no matter how bad your situation.

I don't think I want to,

but I keep feeling like I should.

Because we're good for nothing.

The more time passes,

we cause more harm to our children.

Sometimes, I also wonder why I'm holding out.

I don't know how this came to be.

It was considered a good death if one lived until 80.

Oh, goodness. Stop with this negative talk.

When are you going to tell your son?

When my Sang-cheol gets a job.

I'll tell him, "I want to make money on my own,

so don't stop me."

Once I make

enough for flight tickets and a year's worth of living expenses,

I'll go to the States,

see my son,

and spend time with my grandchildren for a year.

I won't have to take living expenses from Da-jung,

and even after I come back,

I'll tell her to stop giving me money.

With my retirement pension and part-time pay,

I think I can make a living of my own.

Our children

had to struggle so much

because of both their parents.

- Enjoy. - Thank you.

Can we have some more kimchi?

Sure.

PE pipes, CD pipes.

If you forget to fasten this metal in a rush,

you'll be eliminated and disqualified in any case, so keep that in mind.

Honey.

Come straight home after your lesson the day after tomorrow.

It's your birthday.

Now that Ji-hyeok's back, let's have dinner together.

A birthday?

Yes, of my husband, Lee Sang-cheol.

It's Thursday.

I'm not in the place to celebrate my birthday this year.

Let's forget it.

No way.

- Ji-hyeok came back too- - Stop.

Ji-hyeok this, Ji-hyeok that.

He's not the son we lost. He just looks like our son.

I refuse to eat with someone like him.

I wasn't going to celebrate my birthday until I get employed again anyway.

Honey, he's our son.

You really consider him our son?

Then do you know what he's up to?

Let's at least have breakfast together…

I have a special lecture at 7:00 a.m. that day.

Can't you skip it for once?

The exam is right around the corner.

You're so stubborn.

Still, Dad…

I'm home.

Ji-hyeok.

Dad wants to skip celebrating his birthday this year.

He doesn't want a birthday meal until he gets employed again.

It's because of his strong sense of responsibility.

What do you think, Mom?

Let's do as he wishes.

Okay, then.

What matters is how the birthday man feels.

Ms. Park.

I really need to go.

I can't wait any longer.

Oh, please.

Coming out!

Seriously.

I'm sorry.

Forget our appointment tomorrow.

Ms. Ko, you have an unexpected visitor.

Who is it?

I knew you'd recognize my face right away.

I only followed your own rude behavior.

I thought it was okay to come in without asking for permission.

I'm glad I did.

Just a moment, madam.

How dare you pull a trick on us?

You knew my son was back in Korea.

You dug into which gym he exercised at.

You had your daughter sign up at the perfect time.

You're Madam Lee Mo-ran of Hyunyu Group, right?

Did you think the son of Hyunyu Group's owner

would see a girl behind his parents, whether it was a fling or serious?

My son has contacted your daughter already.

Let's not talk any more.

I don't want to sully my mouth,

so I'll let go of the fact that you're a schemer.

Please be clean, will you?

Mom, Min Jung-ho just called off our date.

What do I do now?

Do what?

You should've done better!

I'm taking off now. What about you?

Right.

Their sushi is always good.

How did you come to like sushi this much?

There's so much delicious food in this world.

It's probably because of the best food memory I have in life.

Memory?

Then my best food memory is

the black sesame porridge you got me in a Thermos.

Sesame porridge?

That's far-fetched.

I know you've had all the good food in life.

We're talking about a memory.

I was suffering from a flu for a month at that time.

I wish you hadn't seen me

on that snowy street that day.

What do you mean?

I'm looking into wife candidates for Seong-jae.

I don't think we can set him up with a family

as good as Hyunyu Group.

Hyunyu Group is the least likely.

Seong-jae has a flaw, after all.

Did you explore that level?

It's true he made a brief mistake,

but he's our eldest son, and your heir, with handsome looks.

He's tall and went to a top school.

People in business circles are quick at doing the math.

Unless they fall in love with each other. You need to lower your standards.

And, honey,

it's around time you get over your insecurities.

You've been my wife for years now. Why are you still so sorry?

My goodness.

I'm not.

Sometimes…

You may think I'm mean…

but I'm grateful to her.

What?

If not for her,

I would've never been able to fall in love with someone like you.

Darn it.

I wasn't attracted to him when I met him in person.

Okay. Whatever happened, tell me over lunch.

Seong-jae, you really don't have to care for me this much.

It's impossible not to.

You and I are standing right here because of that man.

You're acting more like a guardian than my eldest brother.

Aren't you hungry? I'm hungry because I waited for your lunchtime.

Fine, let's go.

What?

Seong-jae.

Oh, my. What is he doing here?

Let's hurry out of here. That way.

There. Follow me, Seong-jae. Come on.

Gosh. Seong-jae.

- Did you tell him? - Didn't you call him over?

Why would I do that?

- Then what is he doing here? - I don't know.

My heart pounded like crazy at the thought of being discovered.

Is he here to buy Dad's birthday gift?

I was going to buy it.

Oh, my phone…

I guess we were quite scared of him.

Gosh, I'm thirsty. Do you have 2,000 won?

What?

I like this pair the most. It's light.

Do you also like this design the most?

Yes, it's classy. My dad might look good in it.

- I'll take this. - Sure.

I can't believe I'm having this on the street at my age.

- Isn't it good, though? - Yes.

What is this? It's so good.

You fool.

It's good because you're hungry. We haven't had lunch yet.

Is that right?

You can be quite cute.

What? You little kid.

Don't play the seniority card.

I might end up marrying a man ten years older than you.

Shut it, brat.

Regardless of what you think, I'll never allow it.

Who do you think you are?

Me?

I'm your life's guardian, although I don't know how that happened.

Anyway, why did you get divorced?

You're unusually quiet today.

What's wrong?

My mom's going to scold me when I get home.

Why? Did she catch you reading comics?

No.

Look, Ji-wan.

Rent three more comic books for me. I read them all.

Already? You're good at reading them without getting caught.

My mom needs to sleep too.

Hey, did you read them all night?

You might get caught.

You made me read comics for the first time.

That was for research.

So that you could draw Take My Heart faster.

Then again, I know how you feel.

You're so curious, right?

Yes.

Very much.

That's exactly how I feel.

I'm dying to read your Web comic.

Okay, fine.

I'll rent a comic book for you in exchange for two episodes.

Really?

But my Web comic has no episodes.

Guess what? I used my special cutting skill

to divide it into episodes. I was too bored.

Mom.

Do you know what I went through today?

This is why

I'm trying to bring you up to a higher class.

Because the world puts people into classes.

Because we get…

looked down on like this.

I'm sorry.

Young-ra, When a man falls for a woman,

his lips and ears are closed.

He's blinded by her.

Of course, it doesn't last so long.

So you must make him fall for you quickly by any means possible.

Yes, Mother.

I should've taught you more.

How should I educate you?

It wasn't hard for me.

I'm sorry.

You're late every day.

No, stay seated. I'll leave you to talk.

Ji-hyeok was waiting for you.

For me? Why?

You can't make time on your birthday.

I got you a birthday gift.

I thought you needed comfortable shoes.

Didn't you tell him about not celebrating my birthday?

Didn't you mean a birthday meal?

Okay, just leave it there.

Let's unwrap it.

My gosh, they look nice and classy.

I tried them on. They were very comfortable.

Wait. They're from Seong-jae's brand.

I went to a branch and bought them without letting him know.

Honey, try them on.

Shoes are just shoes.

I'll go upstairs.

Try them on.

Thanks for the food.

How are you so heartless?

At least, have breakfast with your mom.

I have an upset stomach. See you later.

JI EUN-O

You're in the office, right?

Hyun-soo wants you to come over now.

Am I taking too much of your time today?

Not at all.

- He's here. - There he comes.

Eun-o. I need you here too.

It's a surprise that you summoned me urgently.

I have something important to tell you.

Ji-hyeok.

Remodel this café and use it as your company's office.

What?

I can't offer it completely free, pay 20% of the usual rate.

Wait, Hyun-soo.

As you already know, my family is filthy rich.

My father gave me this building too.

Not just this building, you know.

But I have neither a husband nor children to leave what I have to.

Meanwhile, I'm so successful with my architectural career.

You know, right?

I'm busy spending the money I make.

Jeez, this is how it is for people with good financial luck.

Still, this place was remodeled only two years ago.

That's not important.

This place holds a meaning only when the graduates of Hangyeolgachi

continue with their activities.

Without that purpose, it's just a boring coffee shop.

I'm not interested in making more money, and it's complicated to find a tenant.

So I figured

it'd be more fun to watch you guys grow instead.

Eun-o needs an office too.

Whether she continues this partnership or ends it to return to Eunoism,

set up an office for Eun-o in a corner.

- What… - I could feel this was the right move.

I'll sponsor you a place for you to grow your businesses.

It's fun to check on you from time to time and feel proud, thinking,

"Jeez, I'm so generous and well off."

I'm so grateful for your gesture,

but this is too sudden. Let me give it some thought.

Hey.

Hey, JI-hyeok.

You've been the only one who faces me and calls me by my name for ten years.

Don't act mature now.

Give it some thought.

I'm not forcing you.

It's good.

My classes end at 6:00 p.m.

I'll have dinner out and study in the self-study room.

How strange.

Welcome.

- Gosh. Hello. - Hello.

Triangular gimbap again?

You haven't had dinner yet?

No, I've got something on my mind.

Time to restock.

Restock, time to restock.

- Restock. - Wow.

You even know how to do that?

- Did your kid do that for you? - No, I did it myself.

Really? You're so cutting-edge.

DA-JUNG

- Ms. Ji, let me take this call. - Sure.

Hello?

Where are you?

You know where. I'm studying at the school.

Why do you ask?

Well, because it's your birthday today.

I said we didn't have to celebrate it.

I had seaweed soup in the morning. That's enough.

Okay, I'm hanging up. Bye.

What's there to say? It's just how I am.

I could never skip an acquaintance's birthday.

This won't harm you, even for a bit.

Don't you worry.

Are you sure she went to a convenience store?

Yes.

Wait. She even left her phone here.

This means she stepped out

to make a quick visit at a convenience store.

It's been over an hour.

What if something did happen to her?

She's probably out somewhere having dinner in the fresh air.

It sure is strange, though. She said she had a lot of work today.

Maybe she went out to have dinner with Seong-jae.

No, he has a team dinner today.

Okay.

She keeps stressing me out.

- Here you go. - Thanks.

Who's texting you at this hour?

Beats me.

I'm going to go look at the moon before I take a shower.

Do you still like looking at the moon?

Consider it lucky that I like looking at it alone.

Otherwise, you would've had to look at the night sky

with your head bent back all the time.

Are you sure?

Yes, Ms. Ji Eun-o is a suitable liver transplant candidate.

The results say she's a match?

I knew it.

Where were you and what did you do to make even you hum?

You must've been with a woman.

Are you cheating on me?

Get out, punk!

How dare you sneakily crawl back in without permission

and act like you're the head of this family! Get out!

She'll say yes because my life depends on it.

My gosh. I lied to my mom.

So smoothly, at that.

Still, Kang-o came all the way here.

She really abandoned me?

I was meaning to walk away, but I just couldn't turn a blind eye.

- I'm Ms. Ji's boyfriend. - Meddle with my privacy

one more time, and I won't let it slide.
