Original subtitles

Were you surprised by my call?

Yes.

I was surprised.

But...

Oh, my arm? I got hurt. I fell off a horse. I'm fine.

It's a relief that you only got hurt that much.

You didn't think that I would call you...

...even once?

No.

I see...

I won't beat around the bush.

That's not my kind of style.

The feelings between Young Min and I...

....do you think we've really ended everything nicely?

I know that you cancelled your engagement, but about your feelings...

I don't even really know why I have to answer a question like that.

Because you're mixed up with this now.

You know that we had no other choice but to break up because of Joon's existence, right?

Yes.

Young Min and I...

... didn't break up with any kind of peace of mind.

And it doesn't means that our love has stopped.

I thought you were somebody who was rooting for things between us to work out, but...

why are you always around him?

What...

...do you mean by that?

I heard that Young Min injured himself because of you.

If this is about that...

didn't it once occur to you that even it hadn't been me, Young Min would have done the same for anybody else?

I believe he's that kind of person.

Well, then why is the feeling when I get to see you together...

seem closer than that?

Do I...

...really have to explain things pertaining to how you perceive us to be?

I'm not quite sure how I should interpret this...

...your words.

If you really love Young Min that much...

...can't you try to accept Joon?

Instead of worrying about me, I think that would be more beneficial.

I don't feel comfortable hearing that. It seems like you're reprimanding me.

I'd like to ask you...

... to stay away from Young Min.

I don't have to see that yet.

If you really don't have any intentions, promise me this.

Promise me.

I don't think that I am obligated to make my heart follow your wishes.

I also don't think there is a reason I should have to listen to your plea.

Because we've canceled everything, is that why?

I'm not sure how I should say this, but...

... don't you think that demanding that kind of promise is going a little bit over the top?

If I'm perfectly honest, I don't want to make a promise like that.

Were you always this kind of two-faced person?

While you were saying you hoped we could work everything out, you were really fishing for Young Min's affection, is that it?

You're a lot more intriguing than one would think.

I was completely honest about hoping everything would go well between you.

Because of Joon...

I wished that Joon would be happy then.

Joon?

Ahjumoni!

Ahjumoni!

You called?

Wha-, your hand! What's wrong with your hand?

Did you injure it?

What happened?

Yes, I injured it a little. It's fine.

Ahjumoni, did you know that Young Min was injured because of Mi Soo?

Oh, yes I heard of course. You don't know how sorry we are...

Please get Mi Soo to come to her senses!

What?

She wasn't waiting until we canceled the engagement, right?

Wha-... what are you talking about?

Why is she always around him?

Wha-... how could you misunderstand.... it's not like that!

Mi Soo is my daughter after all, but she's really not that kind of person.

Young Min's child and my grandchildren play a lot together.

He comes over to our house often, that's how Mi Soo and Young Min meet occasionally.

They really don't have that kind of relationship!

Please don't misunderstand.

Whatever happened, please tell her to stay away from Young Min.

You have to teach her those kind of things well.

What's this all about?!

You've arrived?

I'm not just saying this without cause...

It's just that I felt something.

There's no such thing going on, so please don't dwell on it.

Go ahead and finish your work...

What's going on?

There was just something that made me unhappy.

I'm sure you don't feel good about this.

Our Seo Young is going through such a tough time, please understand her.

I don't know much about your daughter but I don't have a favorable impression of my once son-in-law to be...

He wouldn't be looking around at the moment.

They made up their minds to cleanly end everything, but it seems as though things aren't going the way they would like.

That must be it.

After all, it isn't an easy endeavor.

I hope you'll understand.... Seo Young really did love Young Min.

Hello Mi Soo,

Did you check out of the hospital?

Yes, of course.

I said I would, remember?

I'll send you some music as a gift for your returning home.

I wish you lots of luck in the new year.

I hope you won't get hurt in the new year...

Thank you.

Mi Soo, Happy New Year.

Actually, we say 'Merry Sehae' (New Year).

Merry Sehae!

See you next year!

I'd rather say, see you in less than 24 hours.

You could.

If we happen to meet before then.

Hurry and get better, and then hug Joon with both arms!

Father-in-law...

I brought a snack for celebrate Young Min coming home... and the New Year!

Young Min, come on out....let's have a party!

Did you make enough profit today to buy that?

Aigoo.... did you expect many customers on a day like today?

Most businesses closed early today.

You bought that even though you didn't make too much money?

But today is a special day, isn't it, father-in-law?

Young Min,

Let's celebrate your coming home!

yeah Uncle.

Did you buy wine?

Of course, I know how much you like it.

Joon-ah,

I've got some chicken for you, you like chicken, right?

Yes.

Where is she?... Honey?

I brought home pigs' feet and chicken...

How could you celebrate the new year?.... we've had so many unexpected happenings this year.

Are we having a funeral?

If you don't want any, then don't.

Let's go eat!

Let go of your sad feelings for the year...

We should still celebrate...

Young Min, is it okay for you to drink alcohol already?

Of course.

Thank goodness you injured your left arm!

What's taking so long?

Ah yes, we're coming father-in-law! Come on honey.

Come already.

I'm working.

I'm working on the interview.

Who is it this time?

A sports star.

Which sports star?

You're really getting on my nerves, why are you so curious about this?

Because I'm bored.

Just study, study!

How can I study when in a few hours the new year begins?

Looking back on the past year, reflecting and remembering on what has happened...

...then making new resolutions for the new year. That's what we need to do...

Then you should pass the time like that.

Mi Soo, do you want to go and watch the countdown for the new year?

We're going to watch in on TV, so you watch it on TV too.

You're the only one who doesn't give in to my coaxing...

Bye/Goodnight.

What is wrong with you?

Why?

What do you mean, 'why'?

Dad told me check in on you...you've been strange.

No.

We're drinking some wine, why don't you come out.

Just you two drink together.

He feels sorry for you...

I told you, that isn't true.

He's sad that you're alone on a night like today...

This is the time you're supposed to spend with your girlfriend, but instead you're at home.

No, it's just that I've decided to chill it out until I find the woman I truly love.

That's right, it's better for you not to meet Mi Soo for a while and determine what's going on.

That way, later when you're with the one you truly love, she'll be moved.

Dad's waiting, hurry up and come out.

Are you sure I won't be in the way?

You're not going to get cold like that?

Yes.

Joon, have you done fireworks before?

Nope.

You have your gloves on, right?

Yeah.

Let's go.

Oh Joon-ah, you're alone. Where's your father?

I asked why you're alone and where your father is.

That lady came.

That lady?

That lady?!

Father, don't you think Seo Young is changing her mind?

If she wasn't, why would she come by on a night like this?

However you look at it, that must be it. Do you think she could have been fine with it all this time?

To get engaged and make it to almost before the wedding day... there's no way somebody could just break everything off like that.

What are you getting upset over now, just wait a little bit and we'll know.

But why would she come, what could she have to say?

Just wait and see!

Joon, what did you do with daddy outside?

We did fireworks!

Did you have fun?

Yes.

It wasn't too cold?

It was cold!

Your nose is all frozen, even your face is all red.

You shouldn't dote on him so much...

Joon-ah, let's get changed.

Is your hand alright?

I guess.

Maybe I was envious of you having your arm in a cast...

How fun.

Young Min's left arm, my right arm.

I saw a happy father with his son. Are you really happy?

Would you believe me if I said so?

Why did you hide from me that your injury was because of Mi Soo?

I'm quite curious as to if there's another reason for this.

I thought you might bring this up.

That you might actually be capable of thinking like that.

Of misunderstanding?

Young Min Shii

Meeting like this...

Couldn't we just go back to dating?

Forgetting about marriage, couldn't we just go back to dating before the engagement?

What kind of meaning would that hold?

Don't we miss each other?

I think there's no meaning in doing that.

I think that we should look forward and try to clean up all of the odds and ends as quickly as possible.

You can just automatically wipe all of that away?

Really?

My feelings for you...

I haven't been able to forget them.

But,

I'm working very hard at doing that.

How can you be so rational/objective?

I met with Mi Soo.

Not at the hospital, I asked her to meet me somewhere else.

Why, in order to achieve what?

What's your reason to meet Mi Soo?

Are you really that angry at me meeting her?

I can't help wondering what Mi Soo must feel like, having to meet you because of me...

That's why.

That's all?

Why don't you try being more honest.

If I were to speak of what I truthfully think of Mi Soo,

I would say that she's a good person.

That's why I think that there should be no reason for you to approach her like this.

I'd like to ask you...

...to forget all about us quickly.

Go home.

He came to tell you goodnight.

Goodnight.

Alright, you too!

Sleep well.... daddy.

Aunt, isn't it the 31. of December in that film as well?

Yeah.

This is really old, right? Why don't you watch something else, there are plenty of interesting movies nowadays.

I watch this movie on the last day of every year.

So, how many times have you watched it?

Ah, just be quiet.

Mommy, we're going to wash up!

Alright, make sure you brush well!

Unni, it's cold!

Let's go!

What's happening?

Aunt, does that guy die as well?

Come on!

Come out quickly!

Unni, the door won't open!

Just try harder!

It won't open!

You dummy, why wouldn't it?

Push really hard...

It won't open!

Try pulling with me!

On the count of three!

1, 2, 3...

I told you to do it hard!

I did...

Mom. MOM!!!

mom! MOM!!

Yoon Mi-ah What's wrong?

The bathroom door won't open. Yoon Ji can't come out!

What?

How did that happen?

I don't know.

Grandma!

Omo, Yoon Ji-ah.

Just be still, calm down.

What's wrong with this, why suddenly...

What's wrong?

Just wait a minute Yoon Ji-ah

Grandmother, I want to go out!

Just a moment, Yoon Ji, be strong!

Aigoo....

What's wrong with this door?

Come out, quickly.

Why did you go out first, unni?

Don't worry.

It's okay. It's okay Yoon Ji-ah. don't cry.

Where is your mother?

I don't know.

You don't know?

What Yoon Mi?

Would you rather watch a movie than know how Yoon Ji is feeling?

What?

Yoon Ji got stuck in the bathroom!

What's the fuss about, she got out and she's fine.

What kind of movie are you watching that you couldn't even hear the children crying?

You call yourself a mother?

I didn't hear anything.

You, take care of them!

You guys go sleep.

What's that?

Auntie. (Mi Soo) Auntie.

Who's outside?

That guy!

Auntie's friend.

What?

Auntie's friend?

Mi Soo-ah Auntie

Mi Soo ah!!

What mom?

That friend who came by.

He's outside singing right now.

It seems like Hyun Woo.

But why would Hyun Woo stand outside our door and sing?

Ugh, I can't believe...

He said he was bored... but.

Hey!! What the hell are you doing?

Are you crying at the moon?

Hello.

Hello.

It's really cold outside, you two go inside quickly.

Your aunt has somewhere to go with me.

Ya!! Ya, what are you doing right now?!!!

You better put me down! Put me down!!

I can't believe this!

Sleep well!

Are you kidnapping me now?

What if I am?

Let's go!

Where did your aunt go?

She got in the car and went.

Went away?

Yes. yeah.

Ohh... let's go inside.

Since your mommy is watching a movie and not paying attention to anything else...

You guys go to bed first.

You cleaned up, right?

We did it before, remember?

That's when the door to the bathroom wouldn't open.

Oh, so that's what happened.

Hurry up and sleep.

Grandma, sing us a song!

Are you guys still little babys?

You're not even the tiniest bit cool.

I know you thought up this kind of event to pretend like you are, but...

... you really aren't in the least bit.

You're being really strange.

Why sing like that suddenly, all embarassing?

Hey, in dramas, when a guy sings like that, all of the girls fly to him.

You're just different...

Are you anything like them?

Can you even sing?

I'm totally cool. And I can really sing.

You're a great girl overall.... but you're just not a romantic!

To be a girl you should be really thankful and susceptible to this kind of thing... you should really think about that.

That's why you should go meet a girl like that.

You kidnapped me.... just for this?

I thought you might get tired, so I brought you here.

What are we going to do here?

Let's listen to the countdown here.... it'll be noisy elsewhere.

What's all the fuss for?

I'll help make this a memorable New Year's Eve for you.

Mi Soo...

What?

Thank you for being by my side as my friend for so long!

You're welcome.

You don't have anything to thank me for?

Of course not.

Well then, something you want me to do for you next year?

Will you grow up?

How about to stop ordering me around all the time?

...like a puppy?

Alright.

I was just thinking about it today, but... you're really good to me.

Why are you so good to me?

Helping me with my thesis... that was really the best!

Even though you really did hit me alot that night...

Thank goodness.... you acknowledge it.

Is it possible... that you like me?

Yeah, I like you.

Of course I like you, why would I continue meeting you otherwise?

The friend I can sleep in a hotel room with without second thoughts,

you're that kind of friend to me.

This is insulting...

Why is it an insult? Do you want me to see you as a man?

Yeah, I'm slowly starting to see you as a woman, why can't you see me as a man?

If I start seeing you as a man, then we couldn't be friends any longer.

Friendship is as dear to me as love...

...and that it's just as important...

Don't feel so safe around me.... I might become a beast one of these days.

Why?... You?.... A beast?

Then.... am I the "Beauty"?

Sure, you're a beauty, Mi Soo!

Shin Bi's mom,

You worked so hard this past year.

The you that always believed in her good-for-nothing husband - I love you!

Mother-in-law, thank you for having Tae Sup!

Thank you for the self-sacrificing love you gave him.

Please stay healthy in the following year... from you daughter-in-law, Hyun Joo.

Honey!! ... Thank you!!

I'm not too talented, so this is all I could do for you...

I wanted to make it much better.

It's so beautiful...

What are you two doing out here?

Mom, I'm home.

If you're home, why aren't you going to sleep?... What are all these candles for in the middle of the night?

Hyun Joo has been working so hard for us, I wanted to show her my gratitude.

What gratitude?!

(5...4...3...2...1)

(Happy New Year!)

Mi soo-ah.

Thank you for being with me to close the past year and being with me to begin the new year!

You kidnapped me, remember?

Half by force...half by choice...

I guess you're right, friend!

Lots of luck in the new year!

Yeah, you too!

The music you sent to me earlier... I'm sending it to you tonight.

They just played it on the radio...

It's New Year's, how could we not be eating Ddeokkuk? When did you change this?

Since I didn't have ddeokkuk, then I'm really not a year older...

Then I won't add a year either...

I want to be a year older... If we don't, we won't be able to go to school.

I want to go to nursery school.

Even if you don't eat ddeokkuk, you're still going to be a year older. Don't worry.

In the old days.... we used to look at the Western and Eastern calendars...

They used to look at one more than the other...

Either way, I don't want to be a year older.

The kids said Hyun Woo came by late last night and sang songs outside of our house. What was that about?

He was probably just bored!.

Hey, what's that?

That handsome guy who came by the other day was standing outside of our house singing?

Well, why didn't I hear him?

Mother, you were already asleep, remember?

Then why didn't you two hear him?

We were watching a movie, of course we couldn't hear him.

He even took Mi Soo with him in his car.

Aw, Mi Soo, that Hyun Woo is really handsome!

He carried her on his back.

On his... back?

Yeah!

He did it because I didn't want to go.

Oh my, he's already carrying you around?

Hyun Woo likes to joke around, he was just messing with me.

Still, that's soo cool!

And he's so gorgeous, that makes it even better!

Mother, think about it, how would he be?

Why should I think about it, those two need to figure it out.

What do you mean let them figure it out?.... What's more important to a mother than having your kids make the right match?

Grandma, I'll do well and bring an even better husband home, don't worry about me.

How could you find a better husband than Hyun Woo, tall, handsome and rich.

Mi Soo, just take Hyun Woo. It looks like he likes you.

He's just a friend!

Mom, we should get him to come over on Sunday. This Sunday is Mi Soo's birthday, right?

It's her birthday Mom.

What?

What, it's Mi Soo's birthday?!

Yes grandmother!

Shin Ja, what's wrong?

Suddenly, something seems stuck.

Auntie!

I'll go get some water.

I'll go get it mom.

What's wrong now?

Grandma, Hyun Woo is great, right?

That's what I said, isn't it? We should think about Mi Soo's future.

Grandma, I told you I'd bring you an even better husband.
