Mom's late, huh?

Yes.

Did she go to Hwang's?

Well, I don't know...

Maybe she's with her friend -

It's ok. Don't lie. You're not a good liar.

You know where she lives, right?

Let's go. I wanna go there.

Father.

I heard she lost her job. Did you hear?

Yes.

From aunt.

But she's a trooper, father.

She found work and is looking for a publishing job.

She found one already? Publishing?

Supermarket sales.

Aunt found one for her.

Supermarket sales?

Hurry up. Let's go.

Here it is.

It's a new building, so it's clean.

Let's go in.

Well, father...

It's a studio, so it's not spacious.

Alright. Go in.

Yes.

Honey. Sit.

It's not organized yet, but it's nice for them to live.

Geum, sit.

Yeah.

Mom, where's Hyo-Eun?

Aunt took her.

Hwang will come soon too.

They will be happy to see you.

Father...

Yes. He's here.

How are you, father?

Great. Just great.

You bought drinks.

I did for the first time.

I was a little upset over something.

What is it?

Was it worse than cheating on your husband and getting divorced?

Honey...

Is this what you rushed the divorce for?

Look at this.

Look at you, all disheveled like a crazy woman

and staggering around with drinks.

This is the first time. And when did I...

Why did you come? To say that to me?

What did you just say?

Hwang.

You told me to leave.

I did like you said and I'm managing. So why did you come?

Sis.

You're managing?

You got fired and now you're working at the store.

Is that what you call managing?

What's wrong with it? I'm very happy with it.

Alright.

I guess you haven't gone through enough yet.

You're still stubborn and talking nonsense.

You'll have to go through more to learn your lesson.

You have a long way to go.

Honey.

Yes.

So don't worry if I struggle through life.

Goodness...

Sure.

Live your life as you damn please!

Honey.

Goodness...

Couldn't you just bear it and listen to him?

He gave in and came here.

Shouldn't you do the same?

How could you not know how he feels?

You come with me too! I can't bear the sight of her!

Go. What are you doing? Didn't you hear her?

Honey. Honey!

You ignored me.

You did well.

She deserves more hardship to learn her lesson.

Who does she think she is? So stubborn.

She should be grateful and be obedient now that you gave in first.

You know what they say. She's too stubborn for her own good.

If she doesn't fix her attitude, her life will turn worse.

You keep glancing at me. Stop it or your eyes will worsen.

You ignored me and went there all the time.

I hate that too.

Then why did you come?

Honey.

Let's have faith in her.

Who else would?

If the world turns its back on her,

we should hang onto her and have faith in her.

Good parents don't adore their kids only when they're successful.

Good parents forgive them,

love them and keep faith in them even if they go astray or cause trouble.

Right?

Yeah.

You do that.

I'm immature, so I can't.

All right.

You even refuse to let me hold you?

Wait for me.

Sis!

What did I do so wrong?

What?

Giving birth to my child?

Not refusing Tae-Il and marrying him while pregnant with Hyo-Eun?

Is that why I should forgive him even if he cheated on me?

Am I not a woman? Isn't a mother human?

What on earth did I do so wrong?

What on earth...

Sis, stop it.

Hyo-Eun! I'm here! How was the walk?

Aunt, wait. I'm taking off my shoes.

Okay.

This place is better than I thought.

Hey, you're back. My Hyo-Eun.

1, 2, 3!

Hey, switch the tape. Number 20.

Okay.

How is it going?

Hey.

Wow, looks good. Quite sexy.

Nice body and pretty face.

Bro, when did you film this?

Hey, rewind it. You gotta replay it.

Is it leukemia? Too bad, she has a great body.

I see now that she has a sad face.

She does, huh? But it's chronic.

Get out.

Out!

What are you doing in my editing room?

Why are you upset?

It's because we gossiped about her.

He's so difficult. Let's go.

You jackass. You don't have any manners?

When did I shoot this? She has a sad face?

Hey! Are you really an assistant director?

I'm sorry. I didn't mean anything.

I'm sorry.

Switch the tape.

It's ok. Go now. Hyo-Eun is sleeping.

Where's the bottle? Take it out.

You're gonna drink it once we leave, right?

Let's drink together.

Take it out.

It's okay. Go.

I said go.

Hey, getting your hair pulled is no big deal.

If this is a big deal, I would've been dead by now.

How did you know?

What do you mean?

Sis, you got your hair pulled?

Why? By whom?

You should leave other's customers alone.

You broke the rules.

Aunt!

Drink.

Drink.

You think you're the most miserable, huh?

You think it can't get worse?

Not even close.

You only got divorced.

I had to pay the debt my ex made,

and I paid interest with what I made for 6 years.

I didn't want to drag it another year, so I paid it off with my rent deposit.

I have nowhere to go at the age of 49.

Do you think it's because I got my hair pulled?

Then?

Do you know why I got divorced?

Someone sent a picture of me cheating to Tae-Il.

I found out it was my colleague who has crush on him.

I got fired because she played dirty tricks too.

I can't prove it, but it's obvious.

What a terrible woman!

You want me to go teach her a lesson?

But he only resents me. He thinks I drove him to misfortune.

I'm the one who's unemployed with all the suffering.

But he thinks he's the only one. He thinks he's the biggest victim.

Do you know how much he hates and despises me?

But none of you were orphans.

Aunt, you talked about your situation, but it doesn't even come close.

Who can beat me, who was adopted and lived warily for 30 years?

And I got my wedding called off twice.

Are you proud of it?

I have something to say too.

I met someone I wanna marry for the first time...

but he likes someone else.

My best friend.

Jeez...

Good for you.

Drink.

You shouldn't try to outdo me

Yours was the weakest.

Okay.

It's no use to talk about the past.

So...

What are you gonna do with Hyo-Eun?

Your mother wouldn't relent on that.

But it's best for mothers to raise the kids.

If you say that, it's the best for kids to grow with both parents.

So are you together for Hyo-Eun?

I agree with your mother on the matter.

You're not gonna stay single forever and neither is Hwang.

If she meets a guy, she'll reconsider too.

Father.

Your brother failed another fertility trial.

I don't think your sister-in-law can have a baby.

Really?

She must be heartbroken.

Either get back together...

or bring Hyo-Eun back.

If you don't, I will.

Father.

So you bring her.

Think of her.

Not for right now but for the long term.

Where would be a better place for her to grow up?

That's it.

I'm done.

Eat.

Father, excuse me.

Just take it.

Is it a woman?

You already met someone?

No.

Jung-Yoon.

[I'm leaving office now and I was wondering if I can have tea with you.]

I can't. I'm with my father.

Yes. See you later.

'Why does he sound so aloof? Is it just me?'

'Did he hear about the pictures?'

'Geum.'

'You like someone else, huh?'

Is it the director?

Where's Seung-Ki?

I came alone. He went to school to film the kids.

How long till the results?

2 hours.

2 hours? It's too long.

Then I gotta eat breakfast. Have you eaten?

There's a restaurant here.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry.

Mister.

Don't push.

I'm sorry.

- Excuse me. - Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Don't get me wrong just because I keep saying this.

I keep my word.

I said I'm not interested in you.

I'm just concerned.

You sent Seung-Ki back early last night.

Did you have a fun date?

He looks like a player.

He took you to cold places in that weather, huh?

Jeez, you can't even cut?

Here, eat this.

Give it to me.

And don't worry. The results will be good.

I can feel it.

So stop worrying -

I don't.

I can feel it already.

See? I don't even have a scarf on.

After 3 days, my fatigue and swollen throat disappeared.

Really? Good then.

Why did you act so down then?

Good.

The white blood cell count dropped a lot.

It works now, so let's keep that dose for a while and observe.

Sure.

Are you relieved now?

That happy?

I feel better seeing you smile.

Bye!

How are you feeling?

I heard it's hard to be a program director, but maybe not.

What a stupid question.

Ecstatic of course.

If you get good results in this competition, I can't hope for more.

Finally the competition is tomorrow.

You've done your best for the past months.

Your sweat and tears won't betray you.

I believe your efforts will bring you great results tomorrow.

Go, Silk Road!

Go, Win, Go, Silk Road!

Bye now.

Go, Hyo-Eun! See you later.

Bye!

Aunt! Get up.

Have breakfast. I have to go to the store.

The store?

Are you still drunk? You were fired.

I'm going though.

Eat. Now.

I made a mistake yesterday because I was ignorant.

But I'm confident now.

Give me one more chance.

If you let me work today, I'm confident that I can raise your sales.

Sir.

Please.

Just one more day, okay?

You want one? Thank you.

I'll explain. You don't have to prewash.

It's good for a drum washer.

Thank you.

Yes, sir.

Yes.

Passing on my work?

Ok, I'll finish it up.

Yes.

Jung-Yoon. It's me.

I think I should tell you this.

Jung-Yoon.

Let's take it slow.

I...

I can't afford to accept a new love in my life now.

I guess I loved my ex a lot.

I still hate her and can't forgive her.

I'll eventually forget.

But I'm still in pain.

That's why I don't even see my daughter.

But I appreciate your being there.

Selfish, huh?

So if it's ok with you...

let's take it slow.

If you don't mind.

Thanks for your honesty.

I don't mind at all.

Your appreciation is enough.

I'll wait.

Tae-Il, go ahead. I just remembered something.

Bye.

Okay.

My parents might go to meet you. Because of Hyo-Eun.

What about her?

What else?

They want to take her back.

You haven't resolved it yet?

Just tell them that I'll raise her.

How can I?

They think she's my daughter.

So are you gonna drag it?

I won't.

I just didn't want you to be startled when you saw them.

Okay.

And please resolve this so that I won't have to meet them.

Okay.

Is... is she well?

Yes.

So much so that I can't believe she's my daughter.

Thanks. For asking how she is.

What brings you here?

I came to hand over my work.

Did you tell him yet?

You didn't, huh?

That's why you're startled.

Hyo-Eun isn't his daughter, right?

I knew it.

She isn't.

Let's make a deal.

We'll both keep our secrets.

If she isn't his birth daughter, you two can't get back together anyway.

Even if he knows about the pictures -

How did you know that?

About Hyo-Eun?

Accidentally.

I'll keep it a secret.

I don't want to torment you.

So let's...

Who are you keeping it from? He already knows it.

Are you kidding me? You've deceived your in-laws.

So let's make a deal and keep quiet.

Go tell them.

I'll go tell him too.

You think I can't?

No. You're capable of it.

The moment you sent the pictures, you sold your soul.

He's gotta know that too.

At least he gotta know he's seeing someone who caused this mess.

If he still wants to see you, then I won't stop him.

But at least he should know.

That's the least I can do for someone I've lived with for 7 years.

My parents in-law would want to kill me if they found out.

And I deserve it.

I'm just afraid they'll get hurt, but what can I do?

So go ahead and tell them.

Please.

I.. really like him.

I love him.

I already slept with him.

Do you...

Do you expect me to keep it from him after hearing that?

Alright. I'll tell him. I will tonight.

You can check.

I'll tell him.

'I already slept with him.'

[It's me.]

Let's talk. I have something to tell you.

Wait.

I knew something was missing.

Right. Geum isn't here.

She has a competition today, father. This was this year's last, so she left early.

I hope she does well.

I heard it's important to the seniors. Geum really worked hard for this.

Of course she did. She always gives her all.

She works too hard for her little salary.

She should get some medals this time.

So that she can get recognized and get a raise too.

What are you staring blankly at?

She looks around Hyo-Eun's age, and as cute as her too.

But she's pretty.

Do you mean Hyo-Eun isn't?

Do you think she is?

Forget it. Let's stop.

Let's order.

C'mon. I was kidding.

You were not.

You never even jokingly said that Hyo-Eun was pretty.

If you knew how much I miss her...

What's the matter?

Did something happen?

Tae-Il got divorced.

Hwang took Hyo-Eun.

Oh my!

Why isn't he picking up?

How come he never picks up?

Is he auditioning again?

Tae-Young!

Ki! You're here.

What is this?

What's this memory that pops up?

This isn't a dream.

Oh my...

So when he said my brother came...

Oh my god.

Does he know? That I'm his in-law?

Is that why he's ignoring my calls?

Jerk!

'I have to tell them.

'The resident exam is near and I can't keep deceiving them.'

'I'm going nuts.'

How can I tell them when I didn't even pass one audition?'

'If I tell them now, they'll tell me to go back to the hospital.'

Yeah, it's me. What?

[Hey, they announced the audition results.]

[Did you hear?]

No. They did?

Isn't it the day after tomorrow?

[They just did.]

[I can't check because I'm on the bus.]

[Where are you?]

Okay. I'm home. I'll check. Bye.

[List of finalists: M-010 Ki Lee]

What is this!

What was that about? Did you win a lottery or something?

The lottery doesn't even come close.

It doesn't? What is it then?

It's...

I can't tell you now, but it's a good thing.

What is it?

Is it ok to go to work this late?

Yeah, I'm off today.

You're off often these days.

Wow, you made a lot. When did you do all these?

I'll take some to Hwang. I'm worried about her.

After she quit her job, I can't sleep. I feel something's stuck here.

You want some dumpling soup?

No.

Mom, do you want to go somewhere with me this weekend?

With you?

Yeah.

You're down because of sis, so let's watch a movie and eat something good.

Really?

I'd love that.

Then we don't have to put it off.

You said you're off today.

Today?

Shall we then? Today?

Sing, sing!

These are the results.

In the 1500m final today,

seniors Joon-Hee Ko came in 2nd and Soo-Jung Kang in 4th.

I see. That's a very encouraging and satisfying achievement.

I believe it's because

we didn't spare any support to the track team in spite of severe financial pressure.

I promise to not skimp on support for our track team

to better improve basic physical education.

Thank you, director.

Director, shouldn't you treat them on a day like this?

Of course!

I'll treat you pork as a sign of my appreciation.

Silk Road!

Go!

Ok, attention.

Our coach, to whom we owe everything, will now give a speech.

Applause!

Nothing to say.

I'm proud of you.

And I thank you.

I thank you for running hard and doing your best.

And lastly, I thank you for holding me here.

Jeez, she's talking too much today, right?

Yes.

Next, Joon-Hee, our representative, will speak.

I wanna say something nice, but this is all I can think of.

Coach, thank you.

And coach...

We love you!

I love you too!

Alright. Now shall we start eating?

Yes! Thank you!

Come here and have some.

Yes, please.

You should eat with us.

Let's eat.

Looks good.

When will filming end?

Today.

Today?

Then is this the last day with you?

Yes. Are you sad?

Yes, I am.

Can't you film longer?

We're sad too.

So the program director will treat you to karaoke.

Listen! On top of that, Seung-Ki will take you on a station tour next week.

Thank you.

Cheers!

Congratulations, coach.

You got good results, so it was rewarding in many ways.

Once it airs, you'll get a lot of recognition.

You have a pretty face and a nice body.

But I saw you couldn't dance well.

How can I be perfect? I have to have some faults.

What?

Just kidding.

Wait.

Wait. Hello? Mom...

What he said isn't a lie. There will be repercussions once it airs.

Please keep in mind what I said.

What?

I don't want it to be aired. That I was adopted.

I see.

Tell me if you have another such request. I'll accommodate it if I can.

Well... then I'd say the whole thing.

You're that against the broadcast?

Of course I am.

I guess I'm self-conscious.

Don't worry. I'm just telling you how I feel.

I don't want to be on TV, but I didn't mind the filming.

I liked it.

Training was less tiring thanks to you, and I got a brand new washer and payment.

I'm grateful. Sincerely.

This is the last day of filming, right?

What should I do from tomorrow on if I miss you?

Shall I film season 2?

Can I call you sometimes?

Sure.

You don't have anything to say?

No?

Anything you wanna withdraw.

Any lies you told.

I lied.

I haven't lost interest in you.

Can't you accept me?

Can't you?

I'll go.
