[Episode 16]

Jung-gi...

What are you waiting for?

Let's hurry up and go inside.

I can't wait to meet my daughter-in-law.

All right.

Okay, Mother.

Hang on.

Hello, honey?

It's me, your husband, Ma Jung-gi.

You're not my husband. We got divorced ages ago.

What?

You're coming home with Mother?

What's it to me that she has dementia?

Besides, dementia can't happen overnight like that.

It could happen.

The doctor said that if she was under great shock,

she could experience dementia temporally.

She was just tested at Hee-sung's hospital.

Oh, I see. I understand.

Then hurry up and take her to your brother's house...

or to your youngest brother's house.

It's getting dark, you might want to hurry.

Hello? Hello?

Why?

Is she waiting for us with dinner?

Yes.

Yes, Mother.

Oh...

I'm thinking of a way to make you pay for what happened.

You should be on alert.

What?

I'm the one who should make you pay.

My gosh.

Let's talk.

I have nothing to say to you.

You must be too ashamed to talk to me.

Even if I were you, I'd feel the same way.

How can you crawl into a room where a man is sleeping?

What was your intention?

Or am I too naive in asking this question?

I'm the one who wants to ask what your intentions were.

If you looked even in the slightest bit sorry,

I was just going to let it go.

But you're so shameless. You're much worse than I imagined.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Ms. Ma. I knew you had a very nasty temper,

but I never knew you'd sleep around like this.

Sleep around?

I should've known better when I saw you flirting with all the girls.

Is this how you always approach girls?

Flirt? Me?

Watch what you say.

I don't deny that I've always been popular with girls.

But I saved my virtue for over 30 years!

Is your virtue some sort of treasure?

You're saving it for what?

And why did you sneak into my room then?

You seemed so casual about it, too.

Let's get something clear here.

You're the one who sneaked into my room.

Fine.

Let's get something very clear.

You're the one who crawled into the room I was sleeping in.

Ouch.

Let go of me.

Since you can't argue with me, you're resorting to violence?

Oh, okay. Let's resolve this physically.

Why don't you squirm out of this grip!

Let go of me!

I slept in Room #5 last night.

You said you slept in Room #6.

Yeah, good that you brought it up.

I slept in Room #6. You didn't sleep in Room #5.

You were planning to sneak in all along.

I planned it?

I did nothing!

I even sleep quietly!

You're the one who must've planned it all.

Whatever!

I go into a near coma as soon as I lay my head on the pillow.

Let go of me!

Jung-geun, what should I do with you?

What are you doing to her?

I'll take care of this boy for you.

I apologize on his behalf. I'm so sorry.

Come out, you brat.

Hey, what are you doing?

I didn't do anything wrong!

I'm so sorry on his behalf.

I'm sorry.

Hang on.

Are you all right?

He was attacking you first, wasn't he?

He must've been still upset about getting beat up by you the other day.

Even after getting a black eye,

he still can't get his act together.

He deserves to get beaten up more!

Hello, Dad?

Huh?

Grandma has dementia?

Dad!

Oh, In-sung.

I'm sorry for calling you out.

I'm all right.

Grandma, it's me, In-sung.

This is my ice cream! I'm not giving it to you!

Your mother wants me to take her to your uncle's.

But whenever she sees your aunt,

she keeps on pulling her hair and beating her.

Let's go up home with me.

When Mom sees her condition,

I'm sure she won't say anything more.

You think so?

Grandma, let's go home together.

Let go of me!

Let's go. Hurry.

Hurry up.

Who is it?

Is that you, In-sung?

Hurry up and come in!

Come here. Come.

My gosh...

Mom, I brought Dad and Grandma home.

What...?

Where do you think you're coming in?

Honey...

Just look at Mother's condition.

Let's talk after you look at her.

Oh, my darling!

Did you have fun during your honeymoon?

Honey... honeymoon?

My gosh, you made all this food for me?

Oh, you sweetie!

What happened? What's going on here?

Mother's memory got stuck to when...

we just came back from our honeymoon.

So, she thinks we're living happily right now.

She has no clue that we got divorced...

so late into our marriage.

Oh, how convenient!

That's awfully convenient dementia.

How can she forget everything she wants to...

and only remember what she wants?

Honey...

I mean, Ms. Hong Ae-ja...

Just for one night, please?

Let Mother rest here just for one night,

so that she can have some peace.

I want her to remember us as being happy,

so that she can go home later with a happy memory.

I'll never make you worry over my family ever again.

No, I'll do even better and just disappear from your life forever.

So please bear with me for just one more night.

Mom...

Oh, goodness!

Just what did I do so wrong to your family to take all this crap?

Remember it's just one night.

It's just for tonight.

Don't ask for more.

All right.

Mother, please eat slowly.

Nobody is going to snatch your food.

No, it's all mine. I'm going to eat everything.

Hey In-sung, let me talk to you.

Okay.

Mother, the soybean paste stew is so delicious.

You should have this, too.

Mom, I couldn't help it since Dad called me.

They were right in front of the house.

That's not the problem. What happened to you yesterday?

You said you wouldn't go hiking, then you went.

And you said you'd come straight home, but didn't.

Tell me the truth.

Where did you spend the night?

Oh, actually...

Designer Huh was looking for me. So I had no choice but to go.

To discuss your home shopping show.

Fine. You said you'd leave right away.

Yes.

But we were taking the shortcut...

but got into a small accident.

So, we had to sleep at an inn nearby.

You got rid of your car.

Whose car were you in?

Um...

One of my team members.

Which one?

Oh, you saw him, too, Mom.

I was with So Jung-geun, who picked me up from the airport.

The guy who broke your car?

You were with him all alone?

Oh, no. I had other employees with me.

Really?

Why, of course!

You're the team leader.

You can't be sleeping around with your team members.

Mom, don't you know me better?

I survived the desert of Mongolia and the ice field of Alaska.

Don't you worry about me.

When you're abroad, there's nothing I can do.

But when you're with me, don't go out of my reach.

All right.

Go to your room.

Mom, storybook...

Oh, all right.

Pick a book and go to your room.

Okay.

Honey, it's your turn to read Mi-na a book today.

Don't you think you're going too far?

There's absolutely nothing to eat at home!

Why are you complaining about that?

Then who am I supposed to complain about it to?

You don't need to complain to anybody.

You should cook your own food, that's my point.

Besides, it's your turn to do the house chores today.

Do I have to show you our contract again?

Nevermind. You always bring that up!

That's because you keep on forgetting.

We both agreed and signed this contract...

about dividing our house chores.

We have no problem as long as we follow this contract.

Mom sends us her maid on my days to do the house chores.

She sends us the maid, not just for you, but for us.

And even if we have somebody helping us,

we still have to do some work ourselves.

Gosh...

Why did you marry me if you were going to keep this up?

What about you?

Did you marry me to make me take care of the house chores?

I worked all day today.

Me, too.

I was lecturing and preparing for it all day.

But you get off work earlier than me.

That's why I'm picking up Mi-na from her school.

I don't know if you really forgot,

or if you're just pretending to not remember.

But I want you to read this and remember our rules.

No, whatever! Is this some sort of a summit?

You're always bringing up a treaty.

Mom, read me my storybook.

You have to read her books twice a week,

while I do it three times.

But you failed to read her twice last week,

so I had to read for her all five times.

Therefore, you have to read for Mi-na...

four times this week.

Oh, gosh. Mom! Mom!

Mommy, were you having a conversation with Dad again?

Yes, Mi-na.

Go wait in your room, and Daddy will read for you!

Okay.

Dad...

My goodness...

I can't believe that I'm facing you like this...

in the middle of the night over this matter.

That's exactly how I feel.

I mean doing dishes is no big deal.

Couldn't he have just done it himself...

instead of calling both sides to their house like this?

I just don't understand him.

"Couldn't he have just done it himself?"

What in the world are you talking about?

My son has never even been sent into a kitchen before.

My daughter never cooked in her life, either.

She only studied her entire life.

Is that something to brag about?

I'm not bragging. I'm stating the truth.

You think she could've gotten her doctor's degree...

and became the youngest professor while goofing off?

Your son got his degree from abroad through your money,

but my daughter came this far with just her brain and diligence.

Ma'am, you're talking too harshly.

You think it's easy to get a degree...

from a prominent school in the U.S. with just money?

He's going to be inheriting my family's business in the future.

How can you make someone who should be doing big things in life...

do the dishes?

This will make a headline.

Well, my daughter should be doing big things in life, too.

Nobody marries into a rich family like mine...

and behaves the way she does.

Even the smartest girls quit their jobs...

and fully support their husbands and in-laws...

as soon as they marry into rich families.

Don't you know that?

Well...

I can't make my daughter do that even if she married the king of England.

According to the circumstances, I believe men can do house chores.

They should divide the work into half and half.

That can't be done.

Ji-sung, I need you to write a letter of consent that you'll do all the house work.

What do you mean letter of consent?

My daughter will be even busier...

with her thesis and lectures in the future.

She can't agree to such a thing.

If that's the case,

I can't accept her as my daughter-in-law.

Is that so?

Get your clothes.

Ji-sung, let's go.

Okay.

Oh, and I'm going to call the movers...

to take all the things Ji-sung brought with her marriage.

This will be the end of our relationship.

Huh? Wait. Wait a minute.

Ma'am.

Where do you think you're going?

To my house. Why?

Why would you suddenly go home...

in the middle of our conversation?

You said you can't accept Ji-sung as your daughter-in-law.

I'm not going to beg you to accept my daughter into your family.

Are you going to make them get a divorce?

They got married barely a week ago!

That's how I understood what you said.

People get divorced all the time these days.

Besides, I don't want to make my daughter...

get married and live as a housewife.

Mom, am I getting divorced right now?

Nobody from our family can ever get divorced.

Listen, ma'am.

Let's not take this to the extreme here.

Let's sit down and talk about this, please?

You're the one who pushed this to the extreme.

They have a whole new life together.

Shouldn't we try to negotiate...

and find the best solution for this situation?

Well, if you insist...

Let's have the two sign here.

And we should also sign here.

What's this?

"Agreement on Dividing House Chores...

between Baek Woo-jae and Ma Ji-sung?"

It's extremely rational and detailed.

I made it very fair and clear on the contract.

I trust that you'll like it.

What? You still didn't eat dinner?

What?

The dirty dishes piled up for days?

So you're reading Mi-na a storybook...

without even eating your dinner?

I couldn't read to her last week because I was sleeping at your place.

Ji-sung wants me to make up for my absence.

Mom, can't I just live in your house?

Why did you sign such a contract and make my life so difficult?

She always shows the contract under my nose.

All right for now.

I'll take care of this situation for you.

You just wait and see.

Why did you sign such a contract back then?

I was too naive.

Since she threatened to get her daughter to divorce,

I just signed the contract without reading it over.

If I had known that she'd be such a headache,

I would've just had them get a divorce back then.

Come on, you can't do that.

Did you forget what your mother always used to say?

Nobody from our family can ever get divorced.

That was her #1 rule.

I'm forever thankful to her for that.

She's not coming out. Not at all.

She always comes out at this hour.

Dad, how come you're not sleeping yet?

Oh, I was waiting for our renter to come back home.

I heard what happened from Jung-ie.

I'm sure that's not the reason he's not coming back home.

Besides, he said he had nowhere else to go.

He didn't even pay the rent yet,

so even if he moves out, it's fine by me.

But he seems so timid...

I'm hoping I didn't shock him.

Jung-geun,

I don't think she's coming out anymore.

Who?

The woman from "It's on Hong Ae-ja!"

She sold that expensive detergent...

and didn't even send me the sesame oil gift.

How can she come out on TV again...

after being exposed on the news like that?

Right?

She was such a smooth talker.

When you watch her show, you're lured into buying things.

I think I bought everything she's ever sold.

So Jung-geun, when you're dating a girl,

you have to be very careful of smooth talking girls like that.

Guys are so simple that they tend to fall for vixens like that.

But those types of girls are no good.

I have high standard for girls.

Don't you worry about me.

How can I not worry?

Who wouldn't fall for such an attractive guy like you?

They'd do anything to seduce you.

You have to protect yourself.

Understand?

Yes.

Mother...

It's so yummy.

What did the doctor say?

According to my senior doctor,

he's not sure whether she's suffering from dementia,

or if it's just a temporary symptom after the shock.

Hey, Hee-sung. Does she look like she really has dementia?

Well...

She can't even recognize me.

Why did you bring her home?

Mom still isn't over her flu.

What was I supposed to do then?

Grandma doesn't recognize Aunt,

and every time she sees her, she pulls her hair out.

She really did that?

Your grandmother used to adore her the most.

That's so funny.

Mother, it's late. You should get some sleep.

We have the blankets ready for you.

You want me to sleep already?

I want to eat all of these.

You can eat some more tomorrow.

Come on. Come this way.

Girls, go in and sleep now.

Hee-sung, why did you come home?

You're so busy...

I'll sleep here and leave early tomorrow morning.

Oh, Mom.

Ji-sung's mother-in-law is thinking of launching her design as JW Apparel.

Oh!

No wonder she was so open to the idea.

But her design is so far from anything JW Apparel sells.

I know it's her company and all, but that's so shallow.

Well, I don't know how her new design will be,

but since her design is well-known, I'm going to consider launching it.

I see.

It's actually my first time getting anything done thanks to her.

My home shopping network is frantic...

after I said I'd sell Huh Eun-sook's designs.

But is it really that much of a big deal?

Personally, I don't like her clothes.

But everybody knows how luxurious and expensive they are.

Mom, then you're no longer suspended from your show?

Of course!

Suspension is no big deal in TV shows.

I'm so upset that I got punished because of one lowlife,

I'm taking this chance to show everyone what I'm capable of.

Mother, why are you out?

I can't stay in there.

I have something to say to my daughter-in-law.

My sweetie.

Mother...

My sweetie... My sweetie...

Here. Here. Here.

Oh, my...

Huh?

My goodness...

Don't be so shy. It's okay.

It's just me, your mother-in-law.

I want you to live happily together for 100 years!

And you...!

I want you to give me five healthy grandsons!

They'll be your fortune.

What are you waiting for?

Hurry up and sleep together.

Hang on. Hang on.

Hang on.

Wow, today's the lucky night.

Go in the room. Go on.

Go in the room. Come on.

Mother...

Mother, please go in and sleep first.

Your grandmother must really have dementia.

She's talking exactly the same way she did 35 years ago.

Let go.

Who are you girls?

Why are you staying here instead of going home?

Huh?

Hurry up and leave.

All right.

Ouch, it hurts.

Mother.

Mother...

Ms. Ma came into the room to seduce me?

No, that makes no sense! It's ridiculous!

Right.

Absolutely nothing happened...

that I'm completely sure of.

What are you two doing?

Hurry up and lie down on the bed.

You have to sleep first so that we can sleep, too.

Don't worry about me.

I'll sleep when I'm tired.

Jung-gi...

Your bride must be shy.

You should hold her hand like a man.

All right.

What are you doing?

Let's hold hands for a second.

Mother, we'll sleep now.

Gosh, Mother...

We can't lie down when you're in here.

Hurry up and go to sleep in that room.

We'll take care of our things here.

What's wrong?

Did you two fight?

No, of course not.

Honey, she's worried about us. Let's just go to sleep.

Mother, please go to sleep.

All right.

Okay, good.

You need to sleep together...

for you to love each other even more.

What's wrong?

Are you not feeling well?

No, Mother.

Well, then, sleep tight.

All right.

Good night, Mother.

All right. All right.

My gosh!

Mother, why aren't you leaving?

I wanted to turn off the light for you.

We'll turn off our light.

Don't worry and go to sleep in your room.

All right then...

Sleep tight.

All right. Good night.

Go down. Go down. Go down!

What do you think you're doing right now?

We're divorced.

We didn't sleep on the same bed even before the divorce.

What kind of ridiculous situation is this?

I'm not enjoying this situation any more than you are.

But what can I do?

She thinks we're still newlyweds.

Then sleep quietly on the floor.

Don't even talk to me.

Life is complicated enough for me.

Gosh...

Jung-gi.

The other room is...

My gosh, they're asleep already.

The other room is too cold. I have to sleep here.

[Preview]

You shouldn't worry about anything and just do as I say.

I'm Hong Ae-ja!

It was painful to look at.

I'm the one who should be compensated.

Rip it up.

I'm telling you to rip up that contract with your own hands.

Excuse me?

What do you think you're doing?

Let's have a good life together.

What's wrong with me?

Get it together. Get it together.

Can you get grandmother's test results as soon as possible?

Didn't you know that I'm always a step ahead of you?
