Episode 16

Don't laugh. It's a taboo.

People are watching us.

So what? Leave if you feel embarrassed.

I'm ok, if is not illegal.

Oh, she needs to open the hood.

Oh, right. Ruby, open it.

Should I go first?

Sure, the owner goes first.

Ok...

Fill the cup.

Isn't putting money first?

No need to put money, since we don't have a pig's head.

Oppa, come and fill the cup please.

Keep me from any accident. Keep us in safe.

Heja... Get up.

Huh?

What is it?

It's about Ruby's car... She has to hold a rite.

Call her.

What time is it?

1: 20.

She'll get mad if I call her at this time.

It's more important than sleeping.

Then you call them.

The person you're trying to reach...

She must be sleeping with her phone turned off. Gosh...

What should I do?

Do it with respect.

Ok.

Next.

Wow, as I've expected...

Bless the car to run smoothly with no accident.

Your turn!

Wow...

Oppa, you don't have to do that.

My pleasure.

Buddha, I pray that you keep her from any accident. Thank you!

Good job.

Huh?

Who is it?

It's me.

Joe?

Yes.

What brought you here?

Do you have dried Pollack?

Why do you need it in this midnight?

I just need it.

What is it?

I need it for prevention.

Prevention of what?

Are you possessed or something?

What are you talking about!

My, is Prince sick?

No. I'll tell you tomorrow. Just give it to me. It's urgent.

Now!

Oh, did I wake you up?

Good evening.

You guys drive a lap.

You're not coming? Please, you must come with us.

Hey, squeeze.

I can't.

Why not? Come on.

The owner should do the first driving after the rite

I'll drive from next week.

Where would you come?

Of course home.

I told you I'd throw you a farewell party.

What farewell? We are seeing everyday at home.

Are you tired?

You don't have much time to sleep.

Just go home and sleep. It's late.

Then I'll see you at home.

Ok.

You're not going too far, are you?

I'm only a driver following their wish.

We'll just drive around near here.

Don't worry. We're all slim.

We might get caught by a cop for having five people.

It's invisible from outside.

You must be tired.

Not at all. Does Prince sleep over at grandma's?

Yep.

Mom could come home abruptly with Prince.

It's good that you already got a driver's license.

I know.

When will I drive this car?

You should not drive my car without a proper license.

Don't worry. For my own sake, I won't.

Sometimes, unexpected things bring joy in our lives.

That's how life is. So we shouldn't despair in any circumstances.

For good days will come after all our patience.

You're right.

He's a real blessing to me these days, giving me all the words of wisdom.

You need to sound serious when you say things like that.

This is the way I seriously talk.

Really?

Really.

Keep ringing!

It's strange.

Hi, what brought you here?

Huh?

Well, we heard Ruby got a car.

There's no one inside.

Huh? Where are they?

Celebrating the first ride.

First ride? They should have held a rite first.

We did.

Huh? You did?

Yes.

When?

Just now. I left first, though.

Oh, smarties. They know what they have to do!

Give me that.

Ok, ok. Take this. Give that to him.

Have some when you're hungry.

Thank you.

You should have found out before you woke me up. You spoiled my good night sleep.

I thought they're in bed with the phone turned off.

Why didn't you tell me about the car earlier?

How could you keep it for yourself and surprise me like this?

Getting old, I'm getting forgetful.

I would have told you immediately had I known it.

And we could have prepared a rite better!

Forget it. It's done.

I can just imagine how poor their rite must have been.

Aren't you curious at all?

About what?

The car.

Stop being cranky.

You made me cranky!

It's our much-awaited car, and we could have helped them perform a proper rite!

I could have gotten a ride.

You will.

Gosh, I don't think I can get back to sleep.

I told you, you didn't have to come with me.

You think I don't know that you tried to take credit to yourself?

It's cold.

Wasn't your room heated up?

I mean the morning air... So cold.

How can I help you?

Oh...

Did you ask him about it?

Oh, his birthday? It's this Friday.

This week?

Yes. I found out by suggesting that we celebrate each other's birthday.

It's only two days left.

Between themselves?

Yeah.

How disrespectful...

I know, how come they didn't say anything about the car to you...

Aren't they too stubborn? How come they can't support you even with a single penny?

They want to keep their marriage promise.

Aren't they doing the right thing?

To be honest with you, I can't agree.

You can't start your newlywed life here.

This is an unexpected situation, and I don't have much of choice.

Though you guys love each other, ready to start from nothing,

that small room is just... No, I can't agree with you.

Our wedding will be only a ceremony, and she's ok to share a room with you.

It's already too small for Jade and me.

I'm sorry.

Who is it?

It's me.

Where's Jade?

Bookstore.

Tell me about your car.

Who on earth bought it for you?

A discharged old patient.

Why?

Because I was nice to her.

That's nonsense.

To buy a car for a nurse since she's nice?

You wanna see her? Kyle is supposed to drive her car, starting next Tuesday.

How can you flatter a stranger while ignoring your own parents?

It's my job. I can't neglect caring patients and get fired.

So you held the rite between yourselves, right?

Yes.

How could you do that?

When you got a car, you should have informed the good news to your parents.

How could you leave us out of the rite?

You think it's a good news?

Isn't it?

If I were you, I wouldn't feel that happy.

Why?

Never mind.

Speak.

I put myself in your position.

If my friend, not me, bought you a diamond ring, I would feel sorry to you than happy.

That's why I didn't tell you earlier.

Not to make me feel sorry to you? Come on.

I'm serious.

So, your point is that a parent who can't buy you a car is not a parent.

She didn't mean that.

She did.

Fine, think whatever you want.

You could be punished for being bad to your parents.

As Jade said before, we don't have pleasant memories in our youth.

We've spent our childhood in tears and sadness.

I can't understand you at all.

What have we done so wrong to be criticized every single time?

All of us work hard and get credits even to the point someone buying me a car.

Only if you could be half nice to your parents as you're to strangers.

We did our best as your children. Have we ever earned money for strangers?

By heart! Not by money! Look at your attitude.

How about you?

You don't give us a good attitude either, always giving us troubles.

You just do whatever you want.

We're not angels to tolerate everything with smile.

It must be Kyle. Lower your tone.

Ruby, what time are you leaving?

Well, in a few hours.

Ok.

Please don't make a big deal out of this small matter.

It changed a lot.

Please drop me off there.

Ok.

Good morning?

Oh, do you live around here?

Yes. What business do you have here?

I used to live here.

Oh I see.

Yes, but it changed a lot.

So, where did you live?

There. That house.

The town house?

Yes.

It used to be a small house.

Did you come here to visit someone?

No, I just came. I was curious how it changed.

Oh, I see.

Get in.

Sit on the driver's seat.

Do you mean I should drive from here?

Yep.

I'm nervous to drive through the narrow alley.

Then will you park the car in a broad area and walk home all the time?

You should deal with it.

Get in.

Put your seatbelt on.

I know.

It doesn't go. A defect already?

Miss, check your side brake.

Oh...

I was just confused. Let's go!

Seems you're off today. .

Yes.

Thank you for the cookies the other day. My children really liked it.

That's good. How many children do you have?

Four... actually five.

You got a late child.

Well, yes....

Do you mind if I guide you around here?

It's ok. My house is no more here, so...

Oh, by the way, is there a cafe around here?

Sure. Can I treat you with a cup of tea?

Why do you hit the brake so often?

'Cause the car's getting too fast.

It's not fast at all. Stop worrying. You can't drive if you're that nervous.

And don't put your foot on the break too often. It's not good for a car.

I see.

Seems you live in that townhouse.

Oh, my mother and my mother-in-law do.

Wow, do they live in one house?

No. Just next door.

Sounds like the in-laws are friendly.

Huh?

Oh, yes....

On the contrary. They fight all the time.

Do you live abroad?

Yes, in the U.S.

So are you finished with itineraries here?

No.

Must be something that takes time.

I came to Korea to find my son, but it was not successful. I'm going back tomorrow.

How old is he?

He's thirty two.

Maybe he's with one of his relatives.

He disappeared as he decided to become a monk.

Just like Kyle.

So, your son is a Korean, right?

No.

No?

He's my stepson, and my husband is an American.

Uh...

What is it?

Is your son's name Kyle by any chance?

Oh my! That's right! How did you know?

He's a rentee in my house.

Really?

Yes. He's Kyle...something.

Kyle Huntington.

Yes, that's right. He said that's his name.

Is he home now?

I think so.

He didn't get tonsured yet, did he?

He shaved his head but he didn't become a monk. I mean, he couldn't.

He said the chief priest refused him or something... but any way, he's with us.

Let's go.

Bye!

She could be Prince's mom.

Hey!

You!

What's wrong with you?

She must be Prince' mom!

No, she's Kyle mother!

Forgive us. She's my wife. She mistook you someone else....

Are you Kyle's mother for sure?

Yes.

Oh my... oh... forgive me. It's my mistake.

It's ok.

You are such a careless...!

Hurry, let's go.

Yes.

Don't follow us!

I'm curious...

Kyle!

He's not home.

Not home?

No.

Then call him. You know his number, huh?

No. Don't. He might avoid me.

I don't think so.

Loosen up with the wheel. Just relax.

I'm comfortable now.

Being nervous too much is like an accident magnet.

If you sit back, I'll be ok.

Why did you ask me for a lesson, when you want me to sit back?

Coach me only when I need it.

You need to take heed to all that I say.

Well, make a left over there.

Where? This intersection or the next one?

Of course the first one. Change lanes.

Now?

Yes, now. If you go farther, it could be hard to turn off at the intersection.

Turn on the signal first.

Don't push. I'm already nervous to death.

My...

You should check to keep a good distance before you get in.

I did.

The car just came out of nowhere!

Don't you know there's a blind spot?

That's why you have to look around carefully before you change lanes.

How could I know there's a car out of my sight?

You have to turn your head to make it clear.

What on earth did you learn when you got the license?

Don't ignore me. I got a perfect score on a driving test.

Maybe you're better at test than at practice.

Thank you.

No problem.

Please, go ahead.

Thank you.

She looks very rich... that ring must be a real gem.

Didn't Kyle talk a lot about his mother?

Yes. He said you'd raised him with love.

Did he?

Yes.

I can't understand why he worries me like this...

It depends on how you look at things.

It's good to become a virtuous monk and save poor souls.

He doesn't have to be the one though.

Why didn't your husband accompany you?

He's busy.

Isn't he retired?

Didn't Kyle tell you in detail?

No.

Men usually don't talk every detail about themselves.

We own a hotel in Las Vegas.

What?

What's the name of the hotel?

Crystal Hotel.

Oh, Crystal Hotel. I think I heard about it.

Kyle is the only heir but... look at what he's doing here. I'm so frustrated.

I know.

He's a real jackpot.

He'll give up since his mentor priest keeps refusing him. Don't worry.

I really hope so...

Kyle said that his mentor teacher told him to marry instead of becoming a monk.

Oh, really?

Yes!

I have two pretty daughters.

How long will you drive straight?

I don't want to keep going straight either.

You're not on a straight railroad. Try to make a turn.

There are too many cars.

Look around carefully and make a lane change.

I'm afraid there may be a car in a blind spot, just like before.

Turn on the right turn signal. I'll watch over here.

Ok.

Look ahead!

Oh my god!

A driver must look ahead, not aside!

But you told me to change lanes.

But still, you have to look forward while checking the side.

I know I'm not good! That's why I asked you for help.

If driving is so easy, I don't have to take a lesson from you.

I told you I would watch the side.

But I'm a driver and I need to check by myself.

Checking by yourself like that will cause a big accident.

Your problem is that suspicious character.

What does driving have to do with my character?

What's wrong with making sure of things?

It's your character that drives a car.

Short-tempered people like you drive with a bad manner.

So? Are you saying I shouldn't drive?

Is that what you want to say?

What I'm saying is to calm down, relax when you drive.

I'm getting more preaching than teaching here.

Look ahead. The cars are moving.

Get off.

Here?

Yes.

Why?

I can't drive since you get on my nerve.

I can't get off here. I have no money.

Here. Now!

Drive. I'm not getting off.

Fine.

Release the seatbelt.

No! Do it if you can.

Gosh...

Coral! Are you going out?

Yes.

Where?

Downtown.

Honey, go get some dishes from your mother.

Seasoned pepper and sesame leaves, and just everything.

Will you prepare a lunch for her?

Yes.

Ok!

Gosh, you made a stupid mistake earlier!

Hustle!

Ok.

Let's go, let's go.

You must be hungry.

Do they still deliver Chinese food?

Of course.

Can you place an order? I'll treat you.

Maybe next time. I'll prepare a meal right away. Let's have rice.

You don't have to. Why bother?

Oh, no bother at all.

Actually we're going to have lunch.

My son will go out, so let's just eat.

Kyle is like our own family member.

Please go in. You can take a rest in his room.

Why does he have to live like this...

Oh, Jade. Kyle's mother is here.

What? How did she find here?

It's an amazing story.

Remember the chocolate and cookie present I brought home?

Yes.

It's from a client, who turned out to be Kyle's mother.

Really?

Kyle is the heir of the Crystal Hotel in Las Vegas.

Act really nice, ok?

Why does it take so long?

It's almost done. Set the table.

Did we have fish?

Thanks to our well-prepared daughter.

What a feast!

It's nothing. Sorry there's no meat.

I'm sick of meat.

My, isn't it fermented pepper?

Yes.

My mother made it.

Oh, this is so rare in the U.S.

Oh, well...

This is my eldest daughter.

It's Kyle's mother.

How do you do?

Hi. You are beautiful just like your mom.

She's just above the average. Please, go ahead.

Ok. I love these kinds of side dishes.

That's good. Please help yourself.

It might be salty.

That's the very taste of these.

Is it delicious?

Perfect.

Do you like rice cake soup?

Of course.

How about you, Ruby?

Me too.

Then I'll make it for you tomorrow.

She stopped the car all of sudden and told me to get off.

Why?

'Cause he kept nagging and preaching, not teaching.

It's not nagging or preaching.

If you stop nagging, you'll be perfect.

Oh, it must be something you need to listen to.

That's what I'm saying.

Nothing goes wrong when you listen to the senior.

He's not a senior.

But I'm older than you,

by "a small ax" (as many as) 6 years...

A small ax? A small ax 6 years?

What's that?

As many as...

Say it again?

You say "refrigerator."

I don't speak English.

Then don't make fun of my Korean.

I don't. I just teach you. Right Ms. Boss?

He's right. You're making fun of him.

Wow, you're really "conscientious".

No, you should say "impartial" in this case.

Should I?

Yeah.

The time just flies when I'm with you two.

Ms. Boss, have you heard this story?

What?

I heard this from temple visitors. When they get their children married,

they find their grandkid a petty thief, their daughter a thief, their son a robber,

their son-in-law a fence, their daughter-in-law a diverter.

That's right. People say that.

Yes, my friends, who are married,

also say they would bring nice stuff from their parents.

I can't understand. In America, people don't do that.

Not all Korean are like that, though.

Think hard before you answer.

What?

Do you think you can endure my mom?

You might get hurt.

As long as you're on my side.

It's nothing to do with whose side I'm on.

I know. I mean I can bear everything as long as you love me.

My mom is very proud of her children.

She'll definitely oppose me to marry in this situation.

I know what you're saying. I'll be strong.

Your smile makes me feel so sorry.

Why?

I wished I could give you lots of present when I propose to you, but...

So you're now proposing me, right?

I'm afraid we might regret.

Never!

My parents also started from nothing. But look at them. They live happily.

Do your utmost to them before leaving them.

Ok.

Slightly to the left.

Good.

Isn't it unbelievable?

It is.

Do you know Kyle's number?

I do but...

I see.

So, is she waiting for him?

Yes.

Should I congratulate him in this case?

She needs to meet him anyway before leaving.

We became attached... He could leave, huh?

We can't stop him, though.

His father is an hotelier in Las Vegas.

Oh...

You look like you already knew it.

No, I didn't.

Oh, did you feed the kitten?

Yes, I did.

She's not here now.

Coming to you only for food?

That's the way cats do.

Good job. Aren't you too tired to work?

Don't worry. It was fun.

I'll text you when I'm home.

Ok.

Oppa!

Sorry that I gave you an attitude.

Ms. Goong.

I need to talk to you.

Whose car was it yesterday?

Did you see?

Yes. Who is he?

Just an acquaintance.

It could be awkward to give him a present...

Huh?

Did you meet Gangji?

Yes.

We set a date a month later.

A month later?

November 7th.

What day is it?

Saturday.

When are you going to tell Mom?

Not today, since we have Kyle's mother here.

Maybe tomorrow, then.

Gangji could get incriminated in this matter.

She assured me not to worry.

Because she doesn't know our mom.

She's strong contrary to her look.

Did she look happy?

Yes. I'm supposed to meet her father tomorrow.

Wouldn't she blame you when she finds you didn't tell her about her father?

I should honor her parents' will.

Also, it's not helpful to her father that she knows it and gets emotional.

Where's Kyle?

I'm going grocery shopping.

Your skin looks as clear as a full moon.

You mean it's fatty?

No. Lovely.

Never ever go to see a plastic surgeon. He'll spoil your pretty face.

Boy, you said I have nothing that attracts you.

Apply for a voice actress later. You have a fruity pleasant voice.

Are you serious or joking?

The teacher looks for you.

What?

Nothing.

Can I use your phone?

Sure.

Thank you.

Did you meet Kyle?

Not yet. I'm waiting for him.

Thank God. Amazing to have thought of looking around there!

Good night!

Thank you. Good night!

What a busy day.

Didn't you stop by home?

No. Why?

Jade looked for you.

Oh, did she? I'll be back.

Ok.

Jade!

Welcome.

Were you home?

Yes.

Kyle!

Kyle...

Kyle.

What is this instead living in a cozy house?

Mom, living in a cozy house doesn't mean living in happiness.

So are you happy now? Were you unhappy in Las Vegas?

I wasn't unhappy, but it was not meaningful either.

And is it meaningful now?

Not sure when the chief priest will accept me but I'm doing my best toward the goal.

What about the hotel?

I don't have to be the one to succeed it. You have competent managers.

Kyle, listen. You know how disappointed your father is.

And I feel guilty for this situation.

It's not your fault. I just didn't like hot Las Vegas. I couldn't breathe.

Then live in New York or wherever you like, doing what you want to do.

That's why I came to Korea.

I like to live a simple life, cultivating moral senses.

What's all that for?

I want to elevate spiritual purity.

When I die, I can bring only my spirit with me, not money, power, or a lover.

I want my spirit to be as clear as pure water, unstained with anything.

It's already pure and clear.

Mother, I won't change my mind.

Kyle, I set a dinner table for you.

Have the dinner with your mother.

It's unusual that you have tea in the evening.

Well, I felt thirsty. Maybe dinner was a bit salty.

You could have asked me for tea.

I didn't want to bother you.

Not at all. I'll be happy even if you've asked me thousands of times.

Really?

Of course.

Wait, let's go in the room.

Why?

What's so funny, you and her?

It's the addressee's name on the parcel. So funny...

What are they doing now? Crying?

No. Kyle is giving her a ride to the hotel after a talk.

We have to grab him by all means.

And?

Don't you have any idea? Grab him to make her son-in-law.

How can you stop someone who wants to be a monk?

He wants to be but not there yet.

He's on good term with Ruby, so it's highly possible.

Right.

Does she like him?

Sure. She calls him oppa and gets along well.

Also, he started a driving lesson for her from today.

Well, don't sell the skin before you have cut the bear.

Ruby might be...

Don't be loose-lipped.

Loose-lipped?

She's just concerned...

Try to think, ok?

If things go well, Ruby can go to Las... uhm... Las...

Las Vegas.

Right, Las Vegas and she could be a wife of an hotelier.

Exactly. Then all our family can visit the U.S.,

and he could become at least, well, though not a manager but...

Sure. My son-in-law will offer me a department chief position.

Yes!

Do you speak English?

He can greet in English.

Show us, honey.

Good evening lady.

welcome to Crystal Hotel.

The weather is fine now but it will rain in the afternoon.

He's awesome, isn't he?

He's like a native-English speaker.

Wait... he must wake up.

Oh my.

Oh, not this way, that way.

I'll be here by one in the afternoon tomorrow, ok?

Good night.

Drive safely.

Ok.

May I ask who he is?

My son.

Your son?

Must be hard to manage alone, huh?

One of my regulars helped me.

How was it going?

You want something to eat?

Do we have left over?

We have nurungji.

No parents can bend their children. I think the old saying is true.

If he's not that determined, he wouldn't have come to Korea.

There will be a big storm in my family soon.

Why?

Coral is getting married.

Really?

How can we impress Kyle?

Don't make a sudden change in your attitude, though.

Don't worry. I have to coach Ruby.

Once she finds the situation, she'll work on him herself.

Will she?

I don't think my mom would understand him.

But he doesn't have much of a choice.

Aren't you getting him a place of their own?

We cannot afford it.

Gangji said it's ok with her to sleep with us.

I'll do it.

Hello?

Aren't you leaving work?

I'm about to. Why?

Just to want to hear your voice. Is Kyle coming to take you home?

Yes.

Oh, he's so nice, isn't he?

I'm changing my clothes.

Oh. Enjoy riding and talking with Kyle.

It'll relieve your fatigue of the day. Bye.

What did she say?

She said ok.

We might travel the U.S. thanks to Ruby.

We will.

I'm sure that I won't look like a fob, but I'm concerned about your mother-in-law.

She'll go everywhere in her boorish look.

I'm serious. We must dress ourselves appropriately, but her shabby look is just...

She listens to nobody.

If she were a child, I would teach her by spanking.

Mom. Tell me the truth.

What?

Haven't you had hand-to-hand fight with her?

Yes...

Who won?

We're not children to count win or lose.

Did you get beaten?

No...

Yes you did. Your face tells me so.

I'm waiting for the right moment to let her have it big time.

Why are you so down?

Didn't you hear that?

What?

My mother found me.

My... how come?

I talked like that, but honestly I feel heavy.

Your heart hurts, right?

Yes.

What should I do?

Will you do as I suggest?

Just want to hear your opinion.

I think...

Frankly, I hate you to go back to the U.S.,

and hate you to become a monk even more.

But that's my selfishness.

I think you should go back if you have a better future there.

I didn't come here for a better future.

I think it's tough to become a monk.

I know.

It's simple though.

To live up to your own belief, or to live up to your family's expectation on you...

Somehow I feel like you wouldn't be happy even after you become a monk.

Why?

Just my feeling.

Think hard.

Mom. Mom!

What?

Where're all your side dishes?

Side dishes?

Are you hungry?

No.

Be careful.

Mom, bring me all you have.

In case Ruby failes to marry Kyle, if I get close to Kyle's mom,

she might offer me a job as a doorman at their hotel. Don't you think so?

I know.

You really has knack for cooking. You know that, huh?

Kyle's mother ate it up like there's no other.

She can't taste these things anywhere but here.

There's nowhere she can find the same ingredient either.

My lovely mother...

My...

Remember how mean you were, complaining for meat?

It was because I thought of your balanced diet.

That's enough.

No, wait! It shouldn't be leaked.

Wait, what if the customs stop her because of this?

Huh? It'll be ok.

What time is it?

Finish it.

Ok.

Call your aunt often and ask how she's doing, though you're busy.

Ok. I'll visit her this Sunday.

Good.

Somehow I miss cold noodle.

Cold noodle?

Yes.

With plain soup or with spicy sauce?

Spicy one.

Aren't you pregnant?

Watch your talk, little girl.

I'm not little. Even elementary students in these days know everything about it.

Why don't you have it for lunch with Jung-ae?

She's leaving today. She found Kyle.

How?

What are all those?

Some dishes.

What for?

To give someone as a present.

That's not for me?

No. For one of our clients. I need to go to restroom.

Go ahead.

The 7th on the next month?

Yes. Considering his study, it's better to do it quickly.

When will you tell Mom?

Later.

It's mom.

Yes.

Open the door.

Ok.

It's her. Open the door.

What should we prepare first?

Nothing until everything's decided.

Will he tell her now?

My, what should we do?

Did you have breakfast?

Yes.

We can't make a scene when Kyle is home.

Isn't it cold at night?

How's Prince doing?

Doing ok.

How's Kyle?

As usual.

He won't go back, would he?

He said to Ruby that he's troubled.

Does that mean he's thinking about going back?

Just an emotional conflict, I think.

Hold on to him.

Why should I?

Didn't you hear? He's the heir of an hotelier in Las Vegas.

I did.

And?

I don't wanna stop someone who wants to be a monk. I have that much pride.

But his mentor told him to marry...

I don't want to hit on a genuine man on purpose.

It's not hitting on him.

All you have to do is to get intimate with him.

Intimacy is something you cannot manipulate.

But you're an expert.

Try to be amiable to him. All depends on how you behave.

Just imagine you marry the heir of a Las Vegas hotelier.

Farewell to poverty. And a whole new world of luxury.

He has something to talk to you at grandma's house.

What?

I'll bring my jacket.

Tell me now. What is it?

Who is it?

It's me, Kyle's mom.

Kyle's mom?

Oh, good morning!

Good morning.

I was going to pick you up.

Pack your stuff. I made a reservation for you too.

Do you want me to pack?

Mother!

Are you an orphan?

Do you think I've raised you with all my heart to see you become a monk?

If you have to become one, do so after I die.

But before, marry and have a child to understand parental love.

It's all in your head.

Kyle, it goes for you as well. It's all in YOUR head.

Either in Las Vegas or wherever, you can cultivate your mind as if you're in a temple.

By cultivating your mind, you can rise above the world.

Either under the tree of Buddha or a palm tree, either in Korea or in U.S.

it's all in your head.

Why do you have to neglect your father to follow Buddha?

Whom do you think you should obey?

Dead Buddha or your father?

You're right logically.

Then listen to me.

Mother...

Give up on me.

Why?

Though I didn't give a birth to you, I've raised you as my son.

Why should I give you up?

Please.

There's none like family in this world. Don't you know that?

You can't cut off our 30 year relationship on your own and just walk away.

No, you can't.

Your father and I are not ready to let you go.

Had I known you'd do this to us, I might not have married your father.

You never know how much joy and happiness you've brought in my life.

Then how could you do this to me after all those. What have I done wrong to you?

It's not your fault. It's because I am selfish...

You really need to be selfish then.

Loving and being loved,

having a baby and parenting... these are true happiness and blessings...

Why are you leaving the most precious and important things behind! Why!

Kyle...

Mother, I'm sorry.

I can't drive you to the airport to see you off.

Kyle!

Kyle!

Kyle!

Oppa...
