EPISODE 13

Oh, my goodness.

This is all seaweed? It's way too much. ❤️@ADrama_Lovers telegram channel for asian dramas❤️

Hey, why does seaweed expand so much?

I had no idea one small package would become this much.

If you crave seaweed soup,

you should just buy cooked one.

A terrible cook like you shouldn't attempt anything.

I agree.

But it's Chief Hong's birthday today.

Since it's our first time celebrating it together,

I should cook for him.

-Do you want to try some? -No.

It must be really delicious.

No, thanks.

-I bet it's good. -No.

-I followed the recipe. -No, thanks.

Come on.

I'm sure you'll love it. Try some.

-No, thanks. -It's tasty.

I don't want it. No!

Chief Hong.

Chief Hong.

Goodness.

Hey, you're here.

-Come in. -Hello, Dr. Yoon.

-Hey. -Hey.

-Dr. Yoon. -Come in.

-That spot is the coolest. -Sit down.

I'm working on it.

Sit there.

Okay.

What's going on? They're all here?

This is a yearly thing.

I tell them not to, but they still do this every year.

Gosh.

Suk-ja, bring lots of japchae.

Okay. I should bring more.

This is good.

I'm going to serve the seaweed soup now.

-How many bowls? -Hold on.

Two, four, six… Thirteen bowls.

Nam-suk, you forgot to count yourself.

Fourteen including me.

Where's Yeong-guk, by the way?

Who knows? He hung up on me.

Gosh, he's cold.

-Happy birthday -You have horrible pronunciation.

-I pretty much sound like a native. -That's absurd.

What? You guys are here already?

Seriously?

-Happy birthday to you -Happy birthday to you

-Happy birthday to you -Happy birthday to you

-Happy birthday, dear Chief Hong -Happy birthday, dear Chief Hong

-Happy birthday to you -Happy birthday to you

I told you this wasn't necessary. You're embarrassing me.

This only happens once a year. We must celebrate it.

-Right. -Hey, blow them out.

-Okay. -Blow out the candles.

Thank you, guys.

You should also cut the cake.

-Right. Here's the knife. -Hey.

-Do it with her. -Me?

-Come here. -Hurry up, Dr. Yoon.

-All right. -Gam-ri, they look great together.

-Right? -I agree. Seeing them side by side

makes this seem like an engagement ceremony.

Gosh, don't exaggerate like that.

We also did that for our wedding.

Do you remember our three-tier cake?

What? This is good.

He's so useless.

You idiot.

Go ahead and cut the cake.

-Go on. -Congratulations.

Thanks.

Thanks, everyone.

Thank you.

What's that in your hand?

Oh, this? I made this seaweed soup myself.

But you already had some.

You made it yourself?

Yes.

Let me see it. Let's see.

-What for? -I can have another bowl.

Seaweed is good for you.

-Let me have a taste. -No, you don't have to.

No, I want to.

All right.

Gosh, it looks delicious.

How is it? Is it good?

I like it.

It's tasty.

It's so salty.

So salty.

It even smells salty.

No one deserves to eat that.

Are you serious?

Yes, it's tasty.

See? I can cook if I want to.

Let me try it too.

No, this is all mine.

-Share some with me-- -No, I'll have it all.

Is it really that good?

This is mine. You made it for me.

-Let me have a sip. -No, it's mine.

I made it, so I should have a sip too.

-It's for me, though. -I made it.

-You can't take it back. -Give it to me.

-Why? -I want a sip.

No, you can't. It's my birthday gift, so it's all mine.

But I made it.

-So? It's too tasty to share. -How greedy!

All right.

Gosh. How about some watermelon for dessert?

Sounds great.

All right. How should I cut this?

-It looks so tasty. -Wait a minute.

I forgot I had something urgent.

I'm afraid I should head back now.

-But the watermelon-- -I see.

What, Ju-ri?

-You left that thing? -No.

-The-- -You know, that thing.

-What? -The DOS goods.

-What? No-- -Why would you

-say that now? -I'll buy you one.

I should head back home too.

-You too? -I'm too sleepy to be here.

-Goodness gracious, my butt. -Oh, dear.

My butt hurts too much.

-Gosh, my legs. -Bye, Chief Hong.

Bye, Ms. Suk-ja.

I should head back too.

-You too? -I should check I-jun's homework.

-Goodbye, then. -We should go too.

-Goodbye. -Bo-ra, wake up. Let's go.

-Get up, now. -Why is everyone leaving?

We haven't even started drinking yet.

We should have a taste of that. I bet it's expensive.

Take the hint, will you?

Right. I see.

Let's go, Bo-ra.

She's so sleepy.

-Bye. -Bye.

-Goodbye. -Hurry up.

-Bye. -Goodbye.

-Goodbye! -Bye!

Bye!

They're giving us privacy, aren't they?

They're terrible actors.

They all can't act to save their lives.

Tell me about it. Horrible.

Horrible?

-Geum-cheol. -Yes?

Can you walk a bit slowly?

We should hurry home and rest.

This baby is weighing me down.

Can't you see that I'm carrying Bo-ra? I'm exhausted too.

-Geum-cheol. -Yes?

How about we ask Ms. Yeo to take care of Bo-ra this weekend

and go on a date?

-A date? -Yes.

Things will get even more hectic once the baby is born.

We won't have much alone time.

How can we go anywhere when you can barely walk?

Just rest at home since our baby is due soon.

-Okay? -Okay.

Good.

We finally have our alone time.

Chief Hong, happy birthday.

Thanks.

Should we drink this?

-I'll get the glasses. -Okay.

I can't wait.

What is this? It looks new.

I made that for you.

For me?

But it is your birthday, not mine.

Don't get ahead of yourself. You need to wait a year.

That long?

The alcohol will become sweeter with time.

Let's see.

-What are you doing? -I want to…

make it clear that it's mine.

YOON HYE-JIN

You definitely have a strong ego.

I won't deny it.

Will we be able to drink that

-on your next birthday? -Yes.

Summer, fall, winter…

Then it'll be spring and summer again.

What will have happened

a year from now?

Of course…

It'll have become sweet.

I'll open this.

Yes, I'm sure it will.

Right.

-Hello. -Hello.

Hello. But what brings you here?

Since it's so hot today, I thought I'd visit and check on them.

What are you guys doing?

Can't you see? We're cleaning.

Unlike you who needs a reason to come here, we visit often.

Don't make me out to be that guy.

Gosh, these recyclables haven't been separated.

What?

The watermelon isn't ripe.

The stem is too green.

You should've bought a round one with clearer stripes.

Mr. Ban, is that coffee?

Yes, ma'am. Mr. Chang brought them for you ladies.

Is that it?

But I prefer

the condensed milk latte that Director Ji bought us before.

-We don't have that. -I prefer

the Belgian chocolate mocha. That was tasty.

No, the "shake-it-rato" tasted better.

Is that what it's called?

No. It's shakerato.

Sha… what's that?

You should've gotten those instead.

We should have.

Mr. Chang, don't just stand there. Go recycle these.

-Me? -Then who?

Are you here just to watch us? Set a good example.

What? Don't be ridiculous. Let me take care of this.

-I'll take care of this. -Sure.

-Gosh. Come here. -That looks good.

-Let's eat first. -Gosh.

Hwa-jeong.

What now?

So you said you'd discard

your family name if you cheated.

I have no idea what you're talking about. What is this?

"What is this?" Look at you.

Hey, you'll never be able to fool me.

Hey, you…

-I'll go first. -Look at you.

I have to serve a group of 45 customers.

It's so obvious that you're trying to change the subject.

Hold on. Where are they from?

Chung-ho Industry? Chung-ho Cement?

Just go.

But they said they were coming to my restaurant. Hey!

-Enjoy your meal. -You too.

What? Is he not eating?

No.

This is unlike him.

He treated himself to a grand meal after being told off by the committee.

That's him. But nowadays, he's refusing to eat anything

Not exactly. I made him drink milk yesterday.

Whatever. This is all your fault,

-so fix it yourself. -What did I do?

You know why he's doing this.

He doesn't want you to quit.

How much is TCB going to pay you?

Just negotiate with our company and ask for a raise.

Do-ha, don't be so ridiculous.

I was just worried about you starving.

And I wanted her to stay.

What do you mean?

You're starving, and Ms. Wang is quitting?

Gosh, that was fast.

I'm going to have pork belly by myself today.

By yourself?

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that to her.

It's okay. I'm sorry for what I said.

This won't do. Guys, come with me.

-Where are you taking us? Where? -Over there.

Gosh, your house is superb.

The ceiling is awesome.

The lights are so cool.

And so is the furniture.

Do-ha tends to be all over the place. I'm sorry about that.

You have a lot of medicinal herbs too.

Aren't these seomoktae?

Yes, it's a kind of small bean. How did you know?

Well, my father is a bit ill.

He's paraplegic.

I heard those beans increase blood flow and help with paralysis, so I got some.

Gosh, you're such a caring son.

He's kinder than he looks.

What are you talking about? My face screams I'm a kind person.

You don't…

Rather, you look like the sly type.

Hey, I second that.

You guys are unbelievable.

I'm almost done here, so let's get ready to eat.

All right. Here it is. Gosh, it's heavy.

Eat up, Do-ha.

-Okay. -Here you go.

You too, Director Ji.

Thanks.

By the way, what's the occasion?

Well… I just feel bad for some things.

What is it? Is it because Dr. Yoon chose you over him?

Hey, how did you know?

You got your lucky llama back.

At least the show won't flop.

Thank you for the meal.

It's not because of that.

This is for stealing both drumsticks the other day.

Thanks.

-How is it? -This is insanely good.

-Insane, right? -Totally.

Eat up, will you?

It's so tasty.

I make 1 of the top 3 samgyetang dishes here in Gongjin.

You'll crave it again.

Do-ha is doing the dishes.

What is it? Are you on a power trip since you're his boss?

Maybe I am, subconsciously.

Whatever. He volunteered, saying he ate the most.

You didn't eat much.

I'm sorry.

I should've shown my appreciation and not nibbled on the food.

Is this because of Ms. Wang quitting?

Well… I guess.

That's when I started losing my appetite.

Did she tell you the reason?

She says she wants to change things up

and work in a new environment.

Do you think that's her only reason?

-Then? -A while back,

she told me that she admired you.

Do you think she only admired you as a colleague?

This slowness of yours is why you lost Hye-jin.

Hey. You rub salt into my wound now?

I think you have a bigger wound to worry about.

What do you mean?

You look more hurt now than you did back then.

You even lost your appetite this time.

Look at this from a different angle.

Who knows? Perhaps, life has something else in store for you.

I'm done with the dishes!

He's done already. How is he so quick?

Did he do it properly?

Gosh, it must be so tiring to drive back to Seoul.

Thanks for the meal.

My body really needed that. Thank you.

Right. Take this.

What's this?

It's aralia cordata. It's good for sore muscles and paralysis.

Soak it and make tea with it.

It's for your father.

Thank you. I really didn't expect such a gift.

Thank you. As his boss, I should've treated him to a good meal.

You're better than me.

Oh, please. Don't get all emotional over nothing.

Go on. I need to go to work too. Bye.

-Bye. -Bye.

-Thank you. -Sure.

I always knew he was an incredible guy,

but this is really touching.

I hate to admit it, but he really is.

But you're incredible too.

You're kind toward your former love rival.

You're pretty much a saint.

Yes, and you just enraged a saint.

-Come here. -Gosh.

-Come here, you. -What did I do?

YOON DENTAL CLINIC

Hye-jin!

Gosh, what brings you guys here? You didn't even call.

We're attending a seminar nearby.

We came early to play golf and thought we'd say hi.

I saved your address when I sent the congratulatory flowers.

-I see. -I thought it'd be teeming with patients,

but it's pretty empty.

You see…

They need to book an appointment first.

I see. This is exactly how I pictured your clinic.

A seaside clinic in the countryside.

How cute.

Thanks.

Wait. It reminds me of a dollhouse.

The lobby is small, and so is the office.

Everything's so small.

How about we go out

and have some coffee? It's my treat.

Sure. We didn't even walk around, but we're already done with the tour.

Wait outside.

Let me just get changed.

-Sure. -Okay.

-Why are they here? -Who are they?

-What's with them? -Did I wear expensive clothes today?

I don't remember.

This is so annoying.

Exercising in the moonlight Because I can't sleep

Two glasses of iced Americano and one glass of iced vanilla latte.

-Thank you for the coffee. -Are they your friends?

-Thank you. -You're both pretty.

Are all the countryside cafes like this?

The decorations and vibe are so tacky.

You're right. It's neither a cafe nor a bar.

-What kind of place is this? -Wait--

Dr. Yoon is there.

Right. Did you hear? Gang-uk is getting married.

His fiancée is four years our junior, Park Min-ji.

Myeongin Hospital director's daughter.

I heard the families are close.

Maybe this is a sensitive topic.

Why not? They just briefly dated.

Hey, I'm totally fine.

Tell them I wish them a happy married life.

Do you have any plans to get married?

Come on. That's a bit rude to ask someone who's single.

-I do have a boyfriend. -Ms. Dentist.

-Hey. -Speak of the devil.

-"Ms. Dentist." -Hey, I don't like them.

What? What are you saying?

-Who… -Hello.

We went to college with Hye-jin.

I see. Hello.

Goodness, he's the guy from that photo.

-So he lives here. -Photo?

-The guy who was chasing you-- -That's not true.

-Chasing? -What are you talking about?

We're dating now.

Sit down, oppa.

"Oppa."

-Sit down. -Sit, oppa.

Sit down, oppa. He's my boyfriend.

He looks different today.

How do I put it? He looks healthy and strong.

Right. We're going to go golfing tomorrow. Would you like to join us?

A friend of ours was going to come, but they bailed on us.

Hey, it's too hot to play golf. You'll collapse from the heat.

But we already booked.

Does he not know how to play golf?

-Let's go. -What?

They invited us, so why not?

I just need to hit the ball, right?

Well…

-Oppa. -Why do you keep calling me that?

I always call you that.

I always call him that.

I see.

Why did you say you'd go?

Do you know how to play golf?

What's wrong? Worried I'll embarrass you?

That's not why.

They have totally different values from you.

I don't want you to get upset.

Gosh, don't worry. Things like that don't faze me.

Through this opportunity,

I'll show your narrow-minded friends there are different values in life.

You're impossible.

Right. Do you even have golf clubs?

Don't you worry. Come.

You can always borrow them. They lend those these days.

Thanks for lending them so early in the morning.

I promise I'll use them carefully.

Of course. These clubs weren't cheap.

And I only wore this outfit once.

They're just steel rods and worn clothes.

Anyway, thanks.

Gosh, this is heavy.

Gosh. This is heavy.

What kind of attitude is that when he's the one borrowing?

Darn it.

Chief Hong.

Thanks.

Let's go.

Hold on. I have one favor to ask.

Sure. What is it?

Can you please use honorifics to my friends today?

-That's-- -I know.

I know you even treat the elderly like they're your friends

because you believe everyone should be treated equally.

But could you not do that just for today? Please?

But that's unlike me.

Just for today.

Hey, you're here early.

-Hello. -Hey-- Hello.

-I'm Hong Du-sik. -Gosh.

I barely recognized you. You look completely different.

Oh, I was doing something that day-- Ma'am.

Can you golf?

Yeah. I mean, yes.

What are we doing here? Let's go inside.

Sure. Let's go.

Let's go.

Good job. You're doing well.

Just keep it up like now.

He's pretty good.

You're so happy.

Nice.

I'm better than her.

I'll go first.

Thank you.

That's par.

No way.

Thank you.

He never misses.

You're really good.

-Did you see that? -Thanks.

You were incredible.

-You could become a pro golfer. -Thank…

Thank you.

He's good at lots of things.

He has so many talents.

He surfs and is even a certified barista.

He knows how to enjoy life.

That's admirable.

They say smart people are athletic, right?

He graduated from SNU

and is athletic.

Goodness. You're from SNU?

May I ask what you do for a living?

Well, I paint, brew coffee, and sail a boat.

-I don't have a specific job right now. -Sorry?

I chose to lead my own life instead of being led by someone else.

Change your view on life just a bit, and this lifestyle will bring you joy.

Is this what they call YOLO?

-Yes, something like that. -I see.

You only live once, and I already have everything that I need.

A comfortable bed I'll be sleeping in tonight,

a sturdy surfboard,

and the love of my life.

Goodness, you're so romantic.

I agree.

I envy you.

You have a wonderful boyfriend.

Unlike the cocky guys I've met recently.

Really? Thanks.

By the way, are you even thinking about marrying him?

-What? -Unless you won't get married at all,

people our age should think that far when dating.

You must be in a dilemma.

He seems like a great guy, but you still need to be realistic.

That's true.

Electric cars sure are nice.

They should really improve the charging infrastructure.

I'll go to the city hall soon and ask them

to install more chargers.

I'd be grateful.

Gosh.

Can I ask you a question?

I know you're still going to ask.

When did you first decide to live this lifestyle?

-What? -Something must've triggered you.

I'm sure you're aware

of all those rumors about those five years.

I am.

Don't you think you can tell me now?

So I came up with a few hypotheses.

Number one.

You were the winner of that lottery ticket from Bora Supermarket.

Look at you smiling.

That's your hope, not a hypothesis.

I didn't even live in Gongjin then.

I see. You weren't here.

You look disappointed.

-I'm not. -I can tell.

-You're wrong. -No, I'm right.

No, you're wrong!

Why do you keep making me look superficial?

You're so annoying.

Me? Did I do that

to you?

All right.

You were a genius CEO like Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg.

No.

Then were you an assemblyman's aide who decided to live here

after being let down by politics?

That's not it.

Are you an illegitimate child of a wealthy family?

Don't you speak ill of my grandpa.

Sorry.

Want some?

Were you a secret agent?

As if.

A spy sent to North Korea?

Does that make sense to you?

How could none of your hypotheses be realistic?

Then what on earth happened? Why won't you tell me?

I told you. I don't want any secrets between us.

Are you that curious?

I am.

I just had a desk job.

Nothing special.

A desk job?

Then why didn't you tell me sooner?

This feels a bit unfair.

I thought you had a huge secret or something.

But you just had a desk job?

Yes.

Which company did you work for? There are various companies out there.

Why does it matter when I no longer work there?

Well, you see…

Do you have any plans to return to Seoul?

Not really. I like it here.

Right. It is nice.

What is it? Do you still want to go back?

Well… Not right now.

I'm not saying I want to go back to Seoul right now.

I'm just saying there's a possibility of going back.

Right, that's possible.

All that golfing has made me famished.

Want some noodles?

Sure.

I'll cook some eggs and add it as a pretty garnish.

-Ma'am. -Yes?

-Can you refill our side dishes? -Which ones?

-Fried shrimp. -And bean sprouts.

-And some bell peppers too. -Sure.

-Thank you. -I'll get them right away.

YEO HWA-JEONG

All right.

-Okay. -Hello.

Hey, take a photo.

-A photo? -Yes.

Don't look at the camera.

Move a bit back.

That's good.

The filming ended ages ago, so why is this still in here?

There's still everything inside.

Let's see. The paper with my name on it that she crumpled up is…

YEO HWA-JEONG

YEO HWA-JEONG

-Thank you. -Eat lots.

Darn it.

How could she still care for me after everything?

Why did she do it for me when she should despise me?

-Ma'am. -Yes?

I'll do the dishes. You can stop here and call it a day.

You said your back hurt.

I don't think there are any more customers today.

Let's just wrap up early today.

No. I'm going to wait for more customers and make more money.

-Fine, then. I'll go first. -Go on.

Good work today. Bye.

You too.

HWAJEONG RAW FISH RESTAURANT

Gosh.

When did I doze off?

Let's see.

The dishes are done.

Did she come back and do them?

I enjoyed the movie.

Me too.

I looked it up beforehand.

It was the most popular movie nowadays.

I see.

I liked the pasta too.

They're known for their ambiance.

It's the number one go-to restaurant in Chung-ho when you're on a date.

I see. Did you look that place up as well?

Yes.

I'm a bit tacky and don't know much about these things.

I didn't want to disappoint you.

I'll keep improving.

I'll do better.

Eun-cheol.

You don't need to improve.

What?

Even if I watch a terrible movie,

I'll still enjoy it if I watch it with you.

And remember that spicy stir-fried pork with rice we had?

It was really delicious.

Really?

There's no manual for dating.

Just follow your heart.

I'm sorry for hugging you before holding hands.

I was going to take it slowly,

but you said there was no manual.

Okay.

Well done.

You're quite the smart one.

I bet you could skip more bases.

Do you have any plans to return to Seoul?

Not really. I like it here.

Right. It is nice.

What is it? Do you still want to go back?

He could've said we could go back together even if he didn't mean it.

I feel so awkward because I've never worn a suit before.

-Seon-a, look at me. Do I look okay? -Yes?

Gosh, you look really nice.

-Really? -Yes.

I couldn't even throw it away.

Typhoon Gaia, approaching from the south,

is expected to strike Gangwon Province this afternoon.

According to the Gangwon Meteorological Office…

-Hey. -Hey, you're here.

Yes. Why did you call? What's the emergency?

Could you bring in the fruit from outside?

I managed to put them there, but they're too heavy.

Why did you go through that hassle when a typhoon is coming?

I wanted to sell as much fruit as possible since we're open today.

Why are you being so greedy?

There will be at most 300mm of rain…

That's a lot.

You put out all sorts of fruits.

Can't you just be nice and help me?

I will. I never said I wouldn't.

Green tea? No coffee?

No. The coffee maker here is broken.

Then…

How about this? This will help wake you up.

Okay.

Now we only have one more shoot left. Time flies.

You're right.

Will you be working on the next variety show right away?

Are you nuts? I'm going to take a break.

Thanks to someone, I barely rested for the past few years.

A show would end, and I'd think about going on a trip.

But then you'd call every 30 seconds and spitball new ideas.

One time, you even flew to where I was. Was it Rome?

No, it was Florence.

Right.

Hey, I couldn't even visit the cathedral and stayed up all night

brainstorming with you.

He's the worst. Who is that? He's so awful.

He's unbelievable.

Why did you continue working with him?

Because I enjoyed it.

You see,

it felt like I was doodling on an invisible sketchbook with you.

We'd come up with ridiculous ideas.

Then suddenly, there would be a spark, and we'd find our next idea.

It was electrifying.

But? Are there no more sparks now?

There are.

There are sparks all the time.

That's the problem.

Unbelievable. What are the odds?

That really surprised me. I thought it was intentional.

I almost got a heart attack.

-Pick up. -What?

Right.

Hello?

Hey. It's been ages.

How's Ha-rang doing?

Is that all?

Yes. Thank you.

Honey, could you stay here while I go to the bathroom?

Okay.

The baby is pressing down on my bladder.

Honey, can you tie my shoelaces?

Sweetie, can't you see that I'm drinking water right now?

You're not a kid.

So why would you ask me to tie your shoelaces?

Are you crying?

Why are you crying?

-Okay. I'll tie them for you. -Forget it.

-I'll tie them right now. -No, forget it.

Come on. Are you sulking…

You are.

This is all because of the hormones.

Our baby needs to come out for you to be comfortable.

What?

Comfortable? Are you serious right now?

What is it? Did I say something wrong?

Do you think childbirth is easy?

My body gets ripped in the process.

It feels like all the bones in my body are broken then mended again!

-You see, I-- -Imagine

breastfeeding late at night in that state.

Breastfeeding, putting it to bed, changing its diaper…

But what? I'll be comfortable after giving birth?

Is raising a baby a joke to you?

I never said that.

And I'm being greedy?

Do you think I work this hard just for myself?

I also don't want to work.

I'm exhausted because our baby is weighing me down. I want to rest!

Okay, Yun-gyeong. I'm sorry.

Gosh, you and your words.

I'm the only one lonely and scared.

You're just a bystander.

You have no idea how much I struggle.

My hands and feet are swollen, my back hurts,

and I can't bend forward.

I just can't!

That's why I can't tie these stupid shoelaces!

-I'm-- -Do you know how that feels?

I said I'm sorry.

Okay? I'll tie them right now.

Forget it and just leave.

I don't want to see you, so just leave.

What's the matter with you?

I can't stand being in the same room with you. Go!

-Leave! -Come on!

-What's wrong with you? -Get out!

Fine! I'll leave! Darn it.

I'm leaving!

Darn it.

You're such an asshole!

Is it so hard to tie shoelaces for me?

It's quite windy.

I should prepare in advance.

Gosh, it's too high up.

I should hurry.

-Goodness. -Hey!

What's wrong with you?

I told you to be more careful!

What the hell are you yelling for?

You almost got hurt!

That was nothing!

Gosh! Put me down.

I was about to anyway.

-Why are you here? -I heard a typhoon was coming,

so I wanted to check on I-jun and stuff.

I-jun went to play the claw machine with Bo-ra.

I see. Claw machine.

If you're going to wait, hold the chair.

No, step back. I'll do it.

Why would you rip today's newspaper?

I didn't even read it yet!

Well…

Hold on.

Gosh, it's so windy.

Drink.

Thanks.

I heard taping the windows is of no use.

You should put newspaper between the window frames.

Listen carefully. You see.

You can barely hear the windows shaking, right?

You never skip the chance to compliment yourself.

It's so unlike you to do the dishes without telling me.

Why's she dozing off here?

How did you know it was me?

How could I not? There was foam left all over the sink,

and the dish towels were twisted in lumps.

Didn't I tell you to spray the sink with water

and hang the dish towels so that they won't stink?

How do you still remember that?

I only remember all the annoying things you did.

I'm sorry.

I was a terrible husband in many ways.

What's gotten into you?

I didn't poison your coffee.

I mean it.

And I have something serious to tell you.

About that man Ms. Joo told you about the other day…

A judicial scrivener, was he?

It seems he's a decent guy. You should give him a chance.

You want me to go on a blind date?

Not all men are like me.

You deserve to meet someone nice

and live a happy life.

You're done, right?

Then leave.

Hey, I didn't even have a single sip.

So that's what you wanted to talk about?

I already agreed to meet him soon.

What?

I see.

Good.

Mom! Dad, you're here too.

-Hello. -Hey. I came to see you, I-jun.

-Did you two have a fun time? -Yes.

What did you win?

We didn't play it and just had ice cream.

-You had ice cream? -Yes.

-Was it delicious? -Yes.

Will you play tomorrow too?

Of course.

YOON HYE-JIN

Ding-dong.

Get out.

But I just came.

Aren't you being harsh to a guest?

I prefer a typhoon to you.

Why are you here?

I'm taking refuge from my wife's terrifying nagging.

What did you do this time?

Why are you so sure it was my fault?

Yes, you're probably at fault.

Fine, I am. But she got way angrier than she should have.

Do you know what I'm going through?

She said I was useless and didn't want to be in the same room as me.

She had probably bottled it up.

She did overwork herself. It's been hard for her.

-Are you my father-in-law? -Hey.

She used to know everyone in this neighborhood.

She was friends with everyone.

But what about now? How is she?

She's busy working, raising Bo-ra, and even has a baby on the way.

She's fulfilled her role as a wife and a mom, but what about herself?

Don't you remember what she did

when she got pregnant with Bo-ra?

She proposed to you.

She must've been more scared than you were, but she wanted to make it work.

Geum-cheol, it doesn't mean that she's more mature than you.

She's still young, so it must be hard for her.

So what should you do?

What an annoying bastard. You only say the right things.

Then get lost.

I was about to anyway.

-Go straight home. -I have nowhere else to go anyway.

Your umbrella.

He'll manage.

POST

BORA SUPERMARKET

Hello.

Hello.

Don't worry about this. I'll clean it up.

No, please sit down. Let me.

Would you like me to tie your shoelaces?

It must be difficult to bend forward.

Thank you.

Did something happen?

Gosh. No, I'm fine.

I just envy you, that's all.

I know it's wrong of me to do so.

Why would you envy me all of a sudden?

It's just that

I feel so sorry for myself these days.

But you're living your own life.

You have a well-respected job

and are having fun dating a guy.

But I find your life more admirable.

What? What makes you think that?

Childrearing is definitely not easy.

But you've already been doing that for some time now,

and you're doing a really good job.

I truly respect you for that.

Yes, you're right. Our Bo-ra is…

quite amazing.

I agree.

What's wrong?

What should I do?

I think my water broke.

What?

What is that?

Gosh, that bastard left his phone.

Let's see.

-Hello? -Hello, Mr. Choi.

Ms. Dentist?

Why are you answering?

Geum-cheol left his phone at my house.

Really? Oh, no.

Then can you come to the supermarket this instant?

Why? What's the matter?

-Gosh, that hurts. -I'm sorry!

You see, Yun-gyeong's water broke.

I'm on my way.

Come out. Put the umbrella up.

Watch out.

I'm closing the door.

-Can you manage? -Yes.

But the contractions are getting shorter and shorter.

Really?

Hold on.

Hello? Hey, Du-sik.

Hello? Hey, Eun-cheol. It's me. Do you know where your brother is?

-No. What's the matter? -Choi Geum-cheol, you bastard.

Yun-gyeong is going into labor.

I'm heading to the hospital right now.

If you can reach him, tell him--

Songjin is blocked due to a rockslide. The roads here are flooded too.

What? Then when will we have access?

I can't say. The rain is pouring down for a while.

It's no use calling an ambulance too.

Okay. Let me hang up.

-Yun-gyeong, how far along are you? -Yes?

I'm at 39 weeks.

How much does the baby weigh?

Last week, the doctor said it weighed 3kg.

It's not a breech baby, is it?

Did you have gestational diabetes or preeclampsia?

No.

Chief Hong, start the car. Let's go to my house.

-What? -She can't give birth here.

But you're a dentist.

It's better than nothing.

Hurry up.

BORA SUPERMARKET

It's really windy.

Compared to the typhoon I had back in the day, this is nothing.

Which one? Are you talking about Rusa from 20 years back?

No, there was a terrifying one back in 1959.

What was the name again?

-Sarah. -That's right.

Sarah.

Hello?

Grandma, it's me.

Yun-gyeong is about to give birth.

What did you say?

But we can't go to the hospital right now,

so Ms. Dentist will be delivering the baby.

Back in the day, you all gave birth at home. Any tips?

Let me talk to her.

Here.

Hello, I'm listening. You're on speakerphone.

Listen carefully to what I'm about to say.

What's going on? Why didn't she lock the door?

And why are the lights out?

Did she go home already because of the rain?

Hey, Yun-gyeong--

Yun-gyeong, I may not be an OB-GYN doctor,

but Ms. Kim told me what to do.

And I also studied anatomy as a freshman.

I'll do my best, so don't worry too much.

Okay.

My baby is in your care.

-Do you know the Lamaze breathing method? -Yes.

There are three steps.

Inhale twice through your nose, and exhale through your mouth.

-Come in. -Okay.

Where the hell have you been?

-Where's Yun-gyeong? -She's in labor.

-Yun-gyeong! -Hey, wash your hands first.

-The bathroom is that way. -Okay. Take this.

Yun-gyeong! Are you okay?

Where have you been? I've been waiting for you!

I'm sorry, Yun-gyeong.

I went to buy your favorite fruit.

But then it started pouring.

I was having contractions, but you were nowhere to be seen.

I was scared to death!

Don't worry. Everything will be okay.

You have me, okay? I'll be right by your side.

Dr. Yoon, may I stay in the room with her?

Yes, you may.

Yun-gyeong.

Yun-gyeong, do the breathing again and push a bit more.

Good.

Mom…

Mom…

Mom…

Mom…

Why are you out here?

Did you wake up?

What will happen to my mom?

Don't worry. She'll be okay.

I heard some ladies saying childbirth is very painful.

What if she dies?

Mom…

Mom…

You know what?

Make a wish when lightning flashes, and it'll come true.

-Really? -Yes.

I read it in a book. So make your wish now.

I pray that my sibling will be born healthy.

I pray that my mom won't be in pain.

We beg you.

What if the lightning only grants one wish?

Then let's pray again when another one flashes.

I pray that my sibling will be born healthy.

I pray that my mom won't be in pain.

We beg you. Please.

You son of a bitch!

You crazy bastard!

I told you it was too much

and that we should only have one kid!

Honey. Sweetie. Yun-gyeong. Let go of this, please?

Anything but the hair!

You little prick!

You convinced me to have another baby.

How dare you ask for another baby when I'm the one giving birth?

Do you know how much pain I'm in right now?

Yun-gyeong, don't waste your strength on him. You need to push.

Push a bit more.

-Yun-gyeong, listen to her. -Squeeze.

I've been losing a lot of hair lately.

You know hair loss runs in my family.

Yun-gyeong, you don't want to live with a bald husband, do you?

I don't care. I'm going to kill you tonight.

Don't waste your strength.

Squeeze a bit more.

Try giving birth yourself and see if it's that easy to do!

Just grab his hair.

Yun-gyeong! I see the head!

Squeeze for the last time!

You did well.

You did a great job, Yun-gyeong.

-Honey. -Yes?

Our baby has all ten fingers and toes, right?

Of course. I already counted them.

That's a relief.

Honey. Are you crying?

Yun-gyeong, I'm sorry.

I was so inconsiderate

and didn't know how painful it was to give birth to our kids.

I'm truly sorry.

I'm all right. Okay?

It was painful,

but I got such a beautiful baby in return.

Yun-gyeong.

I'm sorry. And thank you.

I'll treat you better. I promise, okay?

Then promise me you'll change our baby's diapers.

I promise. I'll do it. I'll do everything.

-Can you help me up? -Sure.

Shouldn't you be lying down?

This is fine.

Thank you so much

for helping me give birth to a healthy baby.

I should be the one to thank you

for having trust in me.

Dr. Yoon, would you like to hold our baby?

Can I?

But I've never held a baby before.

Yes, you have.

You delivered the baby.

You're right.

Here. Come on.

Excuse me.

May I come inside?

Sure.

Chief Hong, isn't the baby beautiful?

Even this one takes after Geum-cheol.

Yun-gyeong, your genes must be too weak.

Tell me about it. I was the one who gave birth. It's so unfair.

You've done so well. Congratulations.

Now you're parents of two children.

Du-sik.

Thanks.

Goodness.

Isn't the baby so tiny and cute?

Yes.

Hold the baby yourself.

Gosh, no. It's okay.

-She's right. You should. -It's okay.

-Careful. -Okay.

Hi.

Welcome to the world.

It must've been exhausting.

It was.

My entire body feels drained.

That's because it's all over now.

Well done.

I'm proud of you. Really.

I'm also proud of myself.

Where did you get the courage to do that?

At that moment,

all I could think about was saving Yun-gyeong and her baby.

-I'm afraid I'll have to retire now. -What?

Whenever something urgent pops up in Gongjin,

people will be looking for you, not me.

Oh, please.

I'm so sleepy.

Then sleep.

But where? My bedroom's taken.

Let's go to my place.

Okay.

Let me just get changed.

-Okay. What if she wakes up? -I'll be quiet.

Goodness.

Watch your step.

Gosh.

Here. Give me that.

Okay.

Get some sleep.

What about you?

You didn't sleep a wink either.

I can sleep on the sofa.

No, come sleep next to me.

Sleep by my side. Come on.

Okay.

You were amazing today.

I know.

But it felt strange.

What did?

I never thought of myself as a kid lover.

But when I held the baby in my arms,

I got emotional.

It was tiny, warm, and soft.

It's amazing that little baby brought so much happiness to us all.

I'm sure you brought happiness to many as well when you were born.

You too.

Then this thought crossed my mind.

"My parents gave their all to have me in this world,

so I must do my best to find happiness."

Chief Hong.

-Yes? -In the future…

Much later in the future…

You know how everyone thinks about it.

When you're ready to have kids,

how many kids do you want?

How you'd want a son or a daughter for your first child?

Have you ever thought of that?

I'm not sure. I've never really…

thought of that before.

WHAT MEN LIVE BY BY LEO TOLSTOY

Why aren't you sleeping?

Well…

Why are you going through my books?

I'm sorry.

No, I'm sorry. I overreacted.

Who are those people in the photo?

They're just some people I know.

Let's go inside.

Will you keep doing that?

Do what?

"Just some people I know." "Just a desk job."

Will you continue giving vague answers?

I've shown you everything.

My dad, my stepmom…

even my stupidly drunk self.

I don't mind showing my true self to you.

Do you not feel the same way?

You see,

I was so jealous of Yun-gyeong today.

For having someone who vowed to be by her side

through thick and thin.

You kept your promise about my bucket list wishes.

You agreed to do all sorts of things.

But why won't you do the most important one?

Why won't you open up to me about yourself?

Why is it so difficult for you?

You see,

I really like you.

So I want to know…

what kind of life you've lived

and what's on your mind.

I've been dreaming of the day

you and I become family.

Say something. Anything.

I'm sorry.

Why are you turning into someone else?

Why are you drifting away?

Why are you becoming a stranger?

I don't know who you are anymore.

I don't understand you.

Me neither.

I don't know either.

Bo-ra, have some pork rinds.

I-jun, your meat is on this side.

What about the bean powder?

It's right here. You sure know how to eat your pork rinds.

Eat up.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

My pleasure.

Do you like Seumseum as well?

Of course. I love all kinds of animals.

Hedgehogs, dogs, cats…

Then why did you refuse to take care of it back then?

Bo-ra, it's rude to bring up the past like that.

I-jun, do you want to die?

Violence is bad.

You should stop right now.

I think

I'm still afraid…

of saying goodbye.

What's the matter?

Do you know why he quit his job and came back to Gongjin?

What may be easy for one person

can be something difficult for another.

I think we need to have some time apart.

Just be honest. Show her what kind of person you are.

And you let her decide how she feels about it.

Du-sik. Eat a lot of good food, and be happy.

My grandfather…

I hate it when things are vague.

Things that are ambiguous don't sit well with me.

So what I want to say is…

Hye-jin.
