Oh, right. Mak Bong's birthday is this Sunday.

That's right, what does our Mak Bong want to eat?

Anything.

No, if it's Mak Bong's birthday,

shouldn't we invite his friends over for a party?

Party? I've never done that before.

Huh? Why?

No, Mak Bong's birthday kept falling on a school break.

So he just celebrated it with the family.

Shall I make japchae, kelp soup and bulgogi for you?

Mak Bong. Don't you want to invite your friends over to your party?

I think that would be great.

Hey, then Mom will organize a nice birthday party for you.

Invite all the friends you want to invite.

Really?

Of course!

I'm so happy! Mom is the best.

Really?

Mmm...

How are you going to organize the party?

Invite them over to our home and order pizza and fried chicken.

And I'll buy the biggest cake.

Make Mak Bong a sensation.

Children really need their moms beside them.

Was I too indifferent before?

No, you're so nice.

It's me who's the bad mom.

I want to be a good mother to Mak Bong.

Thank you, Sin Hye.

For what?

Anyway, I'll take care of everything this time.

Don't worry, Oppa.

Good morning.

Cha Ji Ho.

I have something to say to you.

Next time, park your car further up a bit.

Why?

Because my car's the first to leave every morning,

we need to change it.

This is such a small space, you don't want it to get scratched on my way out.

It's true but...

There's also a possibility of me leaving earlier.

Let's take care of it when the time comes.

We can't just react when the situation arises.

Just do it for the mean time, can't you do that?

That makes sense

but that reasoning is unreasonable.

Actually, the parking space ain't small at all.

Do you mean to say that my driving sucks?

That's not what I meant.

That's exactly what you meant.

Stepmom, what's going on?

We must use this parking space fairly.

Looks like he doesn't want to do that.

Is that so? Can't you do that?

Then I'll do it.

I'll park it towards the side.

There's nothing I like about him.

He always needs to have the last word.

Ji Ho is a little rude but he's a good person.

Why are you speaking for him?

Did I? No, when did I do that?

Why are you so flustered?

It's not good for humans to be that rigid.

I'm going to be late for my meeting. I'll go ahead.

Why did you quarrel?

We didn't quarrel.

We just exchanged a few words.

Stepmom was very unhappy.

She was suddenly being aggressive so I just reacted.

Stepmom is a little self-centred

but she's usually right.

Me... I just want you and Stepmom to get along.

Why?

She might become my mother-in-law?

It's not like that.

I was just joking.

What did you eat this morning? Your strength is no joke.

It was just a little nudge.

All right, I'll do my best.

Let's buy a bag after school.

Bag? What's that?

I'll go too.

Okay, come along.

Mak Bong.

Mom.

Yes, right.

Eom Chan, you're here too.

So you're all Mak Bong's friends.

We're just classmates.

Is that so?

It's Mak Bong's birthday this Sunday.

He's going to have a birthday party, everyone must come.

Party? Where will you hold it?

Where else? In our house.

It's nothing special.

Mak Bong mother.

Hello.

Eom Chan. Why aren't you going to your English class?

I'm just about to go.

But can I go to Mak Bong's birthday party?

Birthday?

When is it?

Sunday.

Okay, go to cram class now.

You guys, too.

Mak Bong, you go too.

Yes.

Mak Bong gained friends after joining cram class, right?

Yes, right.

Yes. Moms don't send their kids to cram classes just to torment them.

Preparing for a birthday party is no joke.

Where did you book it?

Book it?

You mean the food?

I'll just order some pizza.

Pizza?

Yeah.

You really don't know anything at all.

It's the norm to hold it in a family restaurant these days.

But the kids are already sick of that.

I... will celebrate Eom Chan's birthday in a hotel.

Do you think that's all?

The event is important.

Children love events.

You must invite a magician and a singer.

The invitation card has to be totally cool.

This is the way to go. Children absolutely love that.

I'm home!

Why are you so serious?

I'm contemplating on the invitation card for the birthday party.

Do you need to be that serious?

Just write an Invite.

That's not how you do it.

Plan the invitation card carefully.

The tone should be special.

If you don't come to my birthday party...

I will be really disappointed.

Are you going to write that down?

I know. I don't even know what I'm doing.

Just come if you're asked to come. Seriously.

Not only that, because his birthday falls on a Sunday,

I have to play proxy driver.

You want me to help you?

No, I'll do it.

Done.

Well done. Not bad at all.

Is that right?

But...

What's wrong? Oppa.

You got the date wrong.

What do I do?

This is really frustrating.

I'm home!

What are you doing, Mom?

Ji Yun, it's good that you're back.

Re-write this for me.

I can't write any more.

What's that?

This is Mak Bong's birthday invitation.

Add a heart.

Just buy one.

I'm asking you to do it.

This is your youngest brother's first birthday party.

Hui Bong, help out too.

And U Bong, use this to record.

Record?

That's childish.

Just record naturally.

Mom, where are you going?

I need to book a hotel.

Hotel?

Why book a hotel?

Mom wants to go all out.

Wife, are you really going to book a hotel?

Eom Chan is doing that too.

I need to book a magician too.

Where do I find one?

That...

Oh yeah, I need to get souvenirs too.

What do kids like these days?

Souvenir?

It's not even a first birthday.

I know. I don't know what I'm doing.

Wife, isn't that a little too much?

Just feed the kids and let them play.

That won't do.

Some even hire entertainers.

Entertainers?

I see a nice event here.

I'll just book everything here.

So cold.

I hope you and Stepmom can get along.

What are you doing?

Removing the frost. Aren't you about to leave?

There's no need to do that.

We're neighbors, it's better to get along.

Anyways, thanks.

What is this?

Isn't that a scratch?

I didn't do that.

No.

Using that kind of thing will surely make a scratch.

You're mistaken, it really wasn't me.

Then... It wasn't there yesterday.

It wasn't me.

Forget it. Don't touch my car next time. Okay?

Excuse me.

So, you fought again?

It wasn't a fight.

I was just trying to make an impression.

She kept blaming me. I did nothing wrong.

Is that so?

Why is Stepmom like that?

She's usually a nice person.

Don't know. Why did I have to do that?

I was even caught.

Still...

I feel uncomfortable with the two of you like that.

How do I make you closer?

They're so pretty.

How can they dance so well?

What's so great about that? I can do that as well.

How can you do that?

Why can't I?

You got it.

What are you doing?

Isn't it Mak Bong's birthday?

I'm so out-of-it.

To prepare the event, I had to book a hotel and even hired a magician.

But what's this?

Souvenir.

Help me wrap that too.

That man didn't even gift wrap it.

This is irritating.

What?

You'll get a scolding preparing something like this.

At least prepare something worth 20 000 to 30 000.

I'm already spending a lot.

Must I spend so much for the souvenirs as well?

That's just being wasteful.

It's the souvenir that's important.

You give that because they're tight with Mak Bong.

This is really tiring.

You're really suffering a lot.

Entertaining kids at that age.

Exactly.

Give those to me. I'll help you.

You're also coming? Okay.

Mom, Pil Na's coming.

Pil Na took your gift without treating you, didn't she?

Mak Bong. Are you happy?.

Yes, I'm very happy.

The people I invited are all coming.

Having this kind of birthday is my first time.

Our Mak Bong is really happy.

Yes, I'm extremely happy. It will surely be fun.

Mak Bong, if you want to have fun tomorrow, you must go to sleep now.

Go and wash up before you sleep.

Yes.

Do what the child wants this time.

You're becoming a better mom these days.

I think so too.

No matter how much I eat these pig trotters, I never get tired of them.

But, are the preparations for the birthday party complete?

Of course, we booked the hotel and even hired a magician.

Stepmom is awesome.

Mak Bong's really lucky.

But I don't know...

Must she really do that?

Dad...

Has Stepmom ever mentioned that coffee shop guy?

What? Ji Ho?

What about Ji Ho?

Nothing, just asking.

Come, smile.

What are you doing? Take that away.

How could you treat your director like this?

Say a word or two for Mak Bong.

Words of congratulation.

Take that away. Hurry, take that away.

You're ruining my appetite.

Take that away.

Are you close with Ji Yun's mother?

The Chairman?

I am.

But, why are you asking?

No, just because.

What does she like?

What does she like?

She likes fashion.

She likes having brunch.

She loves espresso.

Espresso?

But, why are you asking?

Nothing.

Doesn't she go out on Sundays?

What? What the heck are you saying?

I'm sorry. Our hotel staff failed to book the reservation.

No, my child's birthday is today. What do I do about this?

I'm really sorry.

Then, how about the magician?

Did you book a magician?

The records don't show.

May I have the name of the person who made the reservation?

Seriously! Are you joking?

Hello! Hello!

What do I do?

Oppa, the reservation was cancelled.

What should I do?

This is crazy! Hang on.

What are you going to do?

Dad, did something happen?

The hotel and that event went kaput.

Then, what should we do?

Mak Bong is really looking forward to it.

I know.

This is a big problem.

Excuse me!

Hello.

Wait for a minute please.

What?

What's this?

Drink this espresso in the shop.

Oh?

I just made it so it's pretty good.

Thanks.

What is this?

I'm already busy as it is.

The lid...

What did you do? I'm already late as it is.

Wife, what's wrong?

What should I do with this?

I'm sorry.

Ji Ho.

I don't think this will work.

I made 12 coffees while waiting for her all morning.

Why did that lid have to... ?

Did you come to the cafe just to make coffee for Stepmom?

Sorry, it's because I wanted you two to get along.

Perhaps I should give up.

She might hate me even more.

Oh! Then can you do just one last thing?

Last one.

Lend me the cafe?

Why?

I feel sorry so I want to help out.

To make Mak Bong happy as well.

Then we're really grateful.

She's running around like a headless chicken.

What are you saying?

You need to decorate, right? I'll help out.

Thanks. Then...

Thank you.

Fighting!

This...

Where are you going?

Hurry up.

Hello.

That way.

Hello.

Over there.

Hello.

That way.

Happy birthday to you.

Dear Mak Bong.

Happy birthday to you.

This...

Have I been a little rude lately?

I am sorry.

No, it happens sometimes.

You went through all the trouble today, I'm really grateful.

It's nothing.

I enjoyed it.

Ajumma. (ajumma- older woman)

Did you prepare any events?

Are the magicians and entertainers coming?

That...

I booked a magician but...

something happened.

What kind of birthday is this?

It's boring.

- I know. - Yes.

Let's go.

Mom said she's picking me up.

I'll ask her to come now.

- Yes. - Let's just go.

Guys, that guy is Superman.

- Really? - Really?

He's extremely strong.

Hey. Kids, stop it.

Ajussi will get tired.

It's all right.

Ajussi.

Okay, fine. I'll show you.

That's enough.

Here.

U Bong, you're here.

But this isn't really... Anyways...

Hey.

What?

Nothing.

That's enough. Next one.

Ji Ho... Are you all right?

Do you need to go to the hospital?

Wait a moment.

What to do?

What's wrong with you?

Did something happen?

Where does it hurt?

Speak up.

Where does it hurt?

What to do?

Where?

Ajumma prepared a fun video.

What kind of video is that?

I've already watched all the new movies.

You can only watch it here.

Do you understand?

Okay, look closely.

You swing your buttocks then go "Hooo, hooo."

It's simple, right?

What?

What's that?

That's boring.

What's that?

Where the heck did those grandmas come from? So boring.

Let's go home.

What are you doing?

Let's go home.

Guys, take a look at that.

Hey! Do I look cool like this?

Mak Bong's dad.

Hui Bong nuna.

Why are you shooting?

Turn it off.

This looks more natural.

Say something.

Take that away. Just shoot tomorrow.

I'm drunk.

Will there be enough time tomorrow?

And also, she looks human, but actually, she's fake.

What?

That was really funny.

Can we watch that again?

Let's watch that again.

Sure, I'll play it again.

It's really fortunate that you like it.

I'll play it again.

Put it over here.

You must be very tired, Stepmom.

I think I'm really going to get sick if I have to do it again.

You've worked hard.

But Ji Ho...

Just like you said... He's not a bad person.

Really?

I'm very tired.

Mom.

Mak Bong, your friends have all left?

Yes, all of them said they had fun.

Today didn't really go well.

I'll give you a better party next year.

No... Today was the best.

You think so?

I guess you had a lot of fun with your friends at the party. My Mak Bong.

No. It's because I have mom.

Is that so?

Mom's also very happy today.

Stop it.

The wind went in my ear.

Really funny.

You two are absolutely in a tight embrace.

What is going on?

Did you guys have a strange dream?

Ah...

Again.

So funny...

Nuna's face is very red.

Ji Ho caused that.

This punk.

I am sorry.

Do I look funny?

Romance? Stop kidding me.

It's money now.

I am sorry.

I'm also tired.

Really not bad.

This is so embarrassing.

Take a look.

There's a lot of possibilities in this world.

It's all right.

Nuna.

You were holding hands.

Which one is the truth?
