(Episode 32)

I'm sorry I made you come so late.

But you'll be happy to hear what they have to say.

Let's just focus on that.

You're the one who looks nervous. I'm fine.

Is that what cowards do?

Whispering, as if they're afraid to be overheard.

Stop whispering, and sit down.

Your dad's in his study, so go and get him.

What are you saying?

You already understood what I said.

You two can get married.

What do you mean by telling us

to get rid of all sources of trouble?

It's like I said.

Sever all ties that connect you

to Nayeon.

Ill-fated relationships will come back to haunt you.

You know that very well.

Please continue.

Do whatever you can

to take Saebyeol away from Nayeon.

Their relationship as mother and daughter

must come to an end

when you two get married.

- Understood? / - Honey.

As long as Nayeon has Saebyeol with her,

she can use Saebyeol

to try to ruin Sejin's life.

When Taejun marries me,

his relationship with Lee Nayeon will end,

so why should we do that?

You've gotten a bit weak.

You don't think Nayeon is easy to deal with.

You're very worried because of her.

Please reconsider.

Taking the child away from her mother

is too harsh.

Too harsh?

Then I'll give you one more option.

If you don't want to do that, get rid of Nayeon.

Make her disappear from this world.

If you do that,

you'll have no trouble getting married.

How can you demand that?

What? You can't do it?

Are Nayeon and Saebyeol dearer to you

than Sejin?

Is that it?

We'll do it.

We'll take Saebyeol away from Nayeon.

Trust us, mom.

Okay.

I hope you don't disappoint me.

If you do,

it won't end at breaking off your engagement.

Honey...

Dad, you should go to bed.

I'll see Taejun off after I talk to him.

Sure. You do that.

Would you like something to drink?

Let's look for another way.

What your mother said isn't the best idea.

What? You can't do it?

Is taking Saebyeol from Nayeon

that difficult to do?

Sejin...

Just a few hours ago, I was willing

to abandon my mom just so I could have you.

I meant it.

I was trying my best to be with you

so I wouldn't have any regrets.

And this is all I get in return?

You know it's not like that.

If we look, I'm sure we can find another way.

Don't you know my mom?

She won't budge. We have to do what she says.

Actually,

I'll make it happen.

Even if my mom hadn't come up with that idea,

I would do it in order to protect

my child and our happiness!

If you can't do it, I will.

I'll end the mother-daughter relationship

between Nayeon and Saebyeol.

That's enough. I understood.

I'll do it, so don't get involved.

Just trust me and give me time.

Taejun,

we're almost there.

Don't waver now. Please.

You must be exhausted. Go to bed.

I'll leave after you fall asleep.

What you told them to do

is too difficult for Nayeon.

Must you do that to her?

You probably didn't know that

things would unfold this way.

What are you talking about?

Kang Taejun had a girlfriend,

and that girlfriend was Nayeon,

and they have a five-year-old daughter.

Don't you think they should resolve things?

Something even worse might happen in the future.

If we leave them be,

one day,

they'll stab Sejin in the back.

And I'm trying to prevent that from happening.

But you're going too far.

No, not at all.

Separating Nayeon from Saebyeol

is what I must do

to ensure your daughter's happiness.

I won't repeat myself.

Please.

I'm leaving.

Between the two of us,

who will become a bigger monster?

Do me a favor.

You do it.

Become a villain by making sure

that Nayeon never shows up again,

and become a monster by taking Saebyeol

away from Nayeon.

You have to do it.

It suits you well.

It won't go any further.

The ill-fated connection ends here.

It just has to.

Mom, when you have a nice dream,

do nice things really happen?

What are you talking about?

My teacher said everyone in the class

was very nice and well-behaved,

and that was because she had a nice dream.

Saebyeol, do you want to have a nice dream

so something nice will happen to you?

Mom, I didn't have a nice dream,

but I think something nice did happen.

Dad?

Saebyeol, have you been well?

What happened?

I missed my Saebyeol,

so I came back from America for a little bit.

Wow, really?

Here you go.

I'll take your photo. Come here.

Saebyeol, I'm glad you're eating a lot.

Aunt Geumbong says

if girls want to be pretty, they can't eat.

And when she says that, granny scolds her.

Your granny is right.

You have to eat well to be healthy,

and you have to be healthy to be pretty. Okay?

Saebyeol, you've eaten a lot now.

If you're full, you can stop.

Can I go play with the balloon lady?

So I can digest my food?

That's a nice idea. I'll come with you.

One, two, three!

Here you go.

Thank you.

Want a picture?

If you want your picture taken, come here.

How about going abroad to study?

What are you talking about?

I hate to see you

waste your life away.

I'd like to see you

go back to school and realize your dreams.

Yes.

There was a time when I wanted to try everything.

But one day,

you became my world,

and now Saebyeol is my world.

Thank you for your suggestion,

but I'm not interested in doing anything else.

Why don't you

give Saebyeol to me

and get a fresh start?

Break free

and go discover who you are.

What are you saying?

You just showed up out of nowhere,

and now you're asking me to give Saebyeol to you?

I'm not trying to provoke you. Calm down.

No, that's not going to happen.

Not in your wildest dreams.

Not even when I'm dead.

- Nayeon... / - Mom!

She's going to take our picture.

She said she'd take our picture.

Your girl is so adorable.

This is normally only for birthdays,

but I'll do it for you,

to wish you happiness.

Smile.

Say "kimchi" like granny does.

Kimchi!

Here we go.

One, two, three.

The fuse won't blow even after a hundred times.

And the roaches are all gone.

I can't tell her to come home early

unless a fuse is blown or roaches appear.

She never calls when she goes to her mom's place.

Are her fingers broken or something?

Wait, what am I saying?

Lee Jungdae, are you crazy?

Are you married to her? What's wrong with you?

♪ A tadpole in the stream ♪

♪ Swimming here and there ♪

♪ Pop came the hind legs, pop came the front legs ♪

♪ Hop, hop, it became a frog ♪

I love seeing Saebyeol so much

that I can't stop coming home.

I can't believe what a good singer she is.

She could be an even better singer,

but mom is always singing those trot songs,

so she sings kids' songs in trot music style.

Be quiet.

She sings with her soul, so why pick on her?

Saebyeol,

did something great happen to you today?

Yes, I met dad.

Just a second.

What did Saebyeol mean by that?

Nayeon, you met Taejun?

Did you?

Well, I...

Ta-da!

My dad came back from America for a little while.

He bought me pizza

and played with me.

He was the best.

Saebyeol.

That's enough fun for tonight. Go brush your teeth.

Okay.

What happened?

What's with that photo?

He came back from America? What's that about?

Your reporter side is coming out again.

Jang Sejin told a reporter

that she's pregnant.

She did that because she's worried.

They can't get married? Is that it?

How would I know?

They have nothing to do with me now.

Your face says otherwise right now.

Are you

getting your hopes up?

Are you?

What will I do, Eunbong?

Nayeon...

I hate Taejun so much,

but watching him play with Saebyeol...

I didn't expect it,

but I felt moved somehow.

What should I do?

Maybe I can't let Taejun go yet.

What should I do, Eunbong?

Jang Sejin used to despise reporters,

but she gave an interview saying she's pregnant?

This means some kind of game has started.

Hello?

It's me.

Park Hwigyeong's ex-wife.

Excuse me?

You're an expert at shocking people,

but I guess even you get shocked sometimes.

We need to meet up.

I have something I want to ask you.

But asking questions is my job.

I didn't think I'd be the one giving answers.

Come by my apartment tomorrow.

We both know where it is.

When can you make it?

You're not a morning person, are you?

I often stay up all night.

So I'll come by in the morning.

I'll have the advantage when you're tired.

Just as I expected.

Come by tomorrow.

You'll be very interested in what I have to say.

I can't wait.

You weren't scared when I asked you to meet here?

As you can see, I'm pretty gutsy.

You wanted to gain control,

and I gladly agreed to come here.

I was being considerate.

Try it.

Before I got married,

I took some cooking classes.

You did?

It's not quite up to par.

What do you mean?

I don't think that

Mr. Park fell in love with your baking skills.

Something must be going on between you two.

So that means the article you're writing about me

can't be that objective, right?

Your reputation wasn't bad,

but if you're letting personal feelings guide you,

won't you have to give up being a reporter?

That might happen.

But I can't help it.

I like Mr. Park.

Very much.

So you're going to reveal that

the whole story was fabricated?

Probably. That should be the first step.

You can't.

If you come after me,

Mr. Park won't let it slide.

What?

Don't be cheeky.

Park Hwigyeong and I

still have something between us.

We still have an ongoing deal.

Wow, unbelievable.

Wow!

Hearing you say that

has made me even more curious.

What?

You played your cards wrong.

What? A deal?

You made me want to find out what that is.

Just you wait. It won't take long.

Do what you want. Go for it.

We'll see who gets hurt.

Right!

The person

who has more secrets will get hurt in the end.

What are you doing?

You look like you're about to punch me.

What's left between you and your ex-wife?

You should make your question more coherent.

Don't just blurt it out.

What's still going on between you two?

Don't get so worked up.

There's nothing going on.

If that's true,

how can that woman be so bold?

She acted like you still belong to her!

Like she knows everything about you!

How dare she do that?

By any chance, are you jealous?

Of course! I'm jealous!

Extremely jealous!

What? You're laughing?

What does that expression mean?

Sometimes

jealousy can make a person

get far more excited than any sweet talk.

What?

You should go home.

I can't hang out with you. I'm busy today.

We could have two each.

Why did you get so many?

It's a bribe, so I got plenty.

Oh, so you're trying to bribe us

to be nice to Mr. Kang?

You're as sharp as a razor.

I'm not!

Mr. Kang, thanks to your fiancée's assistance,

you're on the road to success.

He's the only one who doesn't know that.

Where's uncle?

I mean, is Mr. Park out?

He's really busy today.

Let's go to my office.

Enjoy your coffee. I'll see you again soon.

Yes, goodbye.

After telling the world about her pregnancy,

she came straight to his office.

Her smile seems to hide

thousands of different sides of her.

Who cares if she has different sides?

She's so pretty and rich.

I'm jealous.

Were you in the neighborhood?

This was a surprise.

I came because I wanted to see you.

Me?

Did you meet with Nayeon?

Did you tell her to give us Saebyeol and start over?

No, not yet.

Are you being careful or just laid-back?

Our wedding is coming up.

You have no time to take it easy,

and this is nothing to waste time on.

I know. I understand.

Is it that hard?

Is it that hard to talk to Nayeon

about Saebyeol?

Then I'll do it.

If you can't, I'll do it.

You said you'd let me handle this.

Just hang on. It won't take long.

It's not like you found buried treasure.

Where did all this jewelry come from?

I'm so glad you like it.

Girl, I'm not one of those

mothers-in-law from hell.

I'm the conscientious kind

who's grateful for what she's given.

That's why I feel comfortable telling you anything.

Right?

People say daughters-in-law aren't really family,

but that couldn't be more wrong in my case.

You know, don't you?

So I was thinking, mother...

Yes? What is it?

Go ahead.

I don't think we can get married

unless we get full custody of Saebyeol.

What are you talking about?

Wouldn't it be more convenient for you

if you didn't have Saebyeol?

My parents don't feel that way.

They're saying that

we have to take in Saebyeol

and ensure Nayeon and Saebyeol aren't together

in order to feel at ease about our marriage.

Oh, that makes sense.

I can sympathize.

But you're going to raise Saebyeol?

When you'll have your own baby soon?

I can't do it right now.

If you can look after her for now,

I'll take her when I'm ready,

or I can send her to America to study.

I have relatives who can look after her there.

Oh, I see.

But do you think Nayeon would agree?

She'd rather die

than give Saebyeol up.

That's why I'm asking you.

I might forget to give you spending money,

so please don't think of me as rude,

and accept this.

Use it for whatever you want to buy, mother.

Oh, you didn't have to!

Traditionally, it's the dad's job

to raise his kid.

A kid should never grow up without her dad.

I'll make sure she goes back to where she belongs,

so don't you worry about a thing.

Thank you so much, mother.

I have to handle some debts,

so meet me in two hours.

Let's meet when Saebyeol gets out of preschool

and sort things out one by one.

No one wants to see you, so why are you back?

You'll be really glad I came here today.

Here.

What's that?

Your eyes

aren't there just for show.

Can't you see? It's money.

The $500 I borrowed from you and $500 in interest.

It's $1,000.

You refused to be paid

in massage sessions,

so I brought you cash.

Happy now?

Your ears

aren't there just for show.

Why can't you understand me?

I said...

$10,000!

$10,000!

I said to bring $10,000! $10,000!

Are you nuts?

My daughter-in-law bought these for me!

Your daughter-in-law? Man!

Mom, I'm...

Oh, my!

I can't believe that woman!

Aren't these all luxury brands?

From the new collections?

Is this yours?

This isn't a knockoff.

Of course it's not.

It's the most expensive brand,

and only a handful were imported to Korea.

Can I take a photo holding this?

Mom!

Pull yourself together. Seriously!

And you get out.

Please don't come back, and get out!

Stop it! I'm here as a customer!

I'm meeting someone here!

There he is. Look!

I'm supposed to meet that handsome guy here.

What the heck?

Why did Segwang come back here?

Why?

What's this?

Open it.

I don't know much,

but I understand men,

so I pick amazing gifts for them.

Open that, too.

What?

It might not pay all off your debts,

but you can maintain your lifestyle with that.

If I refuse this, you'll feel bad,

so I'll accept it, even though I'm not comfortable.

Where did you find this boy toy?

What's your problem?

Moral corruption is forbidden at this restaurant.

Drink this ice water and get out.

Get lost!

You must be deranged!

How can you scream at us

when you don't know anything?

Who's corrupting morals here?

My mom and I did nothing wrong!

What?

Your mom?

Do gigolos these days

call their lovers "mom"?

Oh Manjeong,

soon you'll have thousands of sons!

It's not like that.

I call her Ms. Oh.

What are you doing?

What if people say our restaurant is weird?

Go into the kitchen. I'll do the serving.

Mom, you go into the kitchen.

Let go of me!

I won't sell chicken to them!

I'm sorry.

Would you like your usual order?

Forget it! I lost my appetite.

Let's go and eat some ribs.

It's okay.

We don't have to eat barbecue every time.

I don't want to say goodbye like this.

Let's go.

Ribs are better than chicken.

Beef ribs...

Mother, I'm here.

Call me when you arrive.

Oh, look at the time.

This is a bad day for me.

Nothing is working out well.

It's okay. Let's go. I'll drop you off.

What? What's going on between those two?

Hi, Geumbong.

I was just thinking about you.

Geumbong, where are you?

I'm always in your heart.

Segwang,

you know what? Your heart is really dark today.

I can't see where you are right now.

I'm at work, of course.

I'm so busy, I couldn't even eat lunch.

Let's go. I'm in a hurry.

Geumbong, I'm really busy right now.

I'll call you back.

What? Did he just lie to me?

What are you talking about?

Saebyeol's grandmother just came

and took her home.

Grandmother?

Her dad's mother.

She came with a young woman,

and they just left together.

A young woman...

No...

That young woman

brought a lot of snacks for the children.

- Jang Sejin... / - Mom?

I warned you

not to show up here again.

I want to take care of my child!

What other motive can there be?

What?

You want to take care of her after all this time?

If she stays with you,

all she'll be is a caterer's daughter!

You have an amazing talent

for making me feel both relaxed and nervous.

Would you like to do this for real?

How can they be so selfish?

Taejun is the worst one.

Eunbong, help me keep Saebyeol.

Help me...
