[Episode 119]

Jung-geun?

Hey, In-sung.

Did your mother go home safely?

Yes. She did multiple tests before going home.

We'll get the results later.

How is Ji-sung?

She's looking good, too.

Hee-sung and Hyun-woo are leaving tonight.

Let's go to Mom's house to say goodbye.

We should see them before they go abroad.

Of course. Dr. Kang delayed leaving for

two months to wait until Mother recovered.

Yeah.

What's that?

Oh, this. I bought heating pads for Father and Mother.

It's getting cold, and they should sleep warmly.

Thank you. I was actually thinking of that, too.

You bought only one?

Yeah.

They can share this together.

It's for two people. Double size.

Good job.

Okay.

We'll come back safely.

We'll be all right, Mom.

Why do you have to leave so urgently?

Oh, give me a break.

They were scheduled to leave two months ago.

I'm sorry.

I wish we could stay longer, but there are things that

I have to take care of, and people who need us.

We'll call you often.

Of course.

We shouldn't hold him back any longer.

Dr. Kang, go and do good things.

Yes, Father.

Hee-sung, I know it will be hard,

but hang in there and help him out.

I will, Dad.

She's never experienced any real hardship.

I'm really worried about how she'll survive.

Grandma, don't worry.

I'll make sure to protect her.

All right.

Ha-young, please take care of

that childish stepmom of yours.

I will.

Oh, how cute.

Mom, she's not childish.

Hee-sung is very smart and driven.

I'm sure she'll do well there.

I know.

Don't worry. She has Dr. Kang.

Dr. Kang, it's very noble of you to help people in need,

but your family is your priority now.

Yes, I understand.

Father, Mother, please be healthy.

Oh, Mother. Here, I set the alarm.

You have to take the medicine twice a day.

And wear a mask even when you're at home.

All right. Thank you.

I'll take care of her. Don't worry and go on.

All right.

Mom...

Oh, goodness...

I'm sorry for breaking your heart, Mom.

Why would you bring that up again?

As long as you two are happy, it's all fine.

Stay healthy and be well, Hee-sung.

You, too, Hyun-woo.

Ji-sung...

Ha-young...

Yes?

Eat this on the airplane. It's chocolate.

Wow! Thanks, Mi-na.

I'll make sure to bring you a gift when we come back.

All right. Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Oh good, you're still here!

Oh, hi.

I was worried we'd get here too late.

What's that, Jung-geun?

I bought a heating pad so you two can sleep warmly.

We don't need stuff like that. Who uses that stuff?

Why, of course we do!

I'll use it. I will.

Thank you, Jung-geun. I'll use it well.

Sure.

Wow, that looks great.

Hee-sung.

Oh, goodness...

Our youngest... Have a safe trip.

In-sung, I'll miss you.

Please take good care of my pretty sister-in-law.

I will.

You'll miss your flight. You should go now.

What? They won't miss their flight.

There's plenty of time left.

Mom, we'll get going now.

Don't be sad even if I don't call you often.

I don't need you to call me.

I'll just think that no news is good news.

I'm not the old mom you used to know.

You have your life and I have mine.

For real?

Seriously?

I have my own life to run now.

If I spent a quarter of the passion I spent on you girls,

my life would be completely different.

And I intend to do just that from now on.

Oh, gosh...

Mom...

Wherever you go, be happy and healthy.

Even if you don't have me to protect you,

you can do well on your own, right?

Right. I'll do that, Mom.

Gosh, this is so warm. My goodness...

I slept so uncomfortably on the hospital sofa.

I can finally relax my muscles.

Oh, that's good.

How warm.

This is just great.

Wow, this is amazing. Just wonderful.

How great. How warm!

It's so great.

Why is he so happy?

This is just amazing.

What's that?

How comfortable. So nice...

You're going to sleep on that pad?

Huh?

Yeah.

I don't want to waste something

our son-in-law got for us.

It's so warm and great.

How wonderful.

Is it that great?

It's just great!

It's so warm. It's great.

What? What the...?

Oh, gosh!

What are you doing!

My back feels so cold these days.

Maybe it's because I had that surgery.

You go sleep somewhere else.

You said you didn't need a heating pad!

I like it right here. You go sleep in the room.

Hey!

I'm going to sleep here. Jung-geun got it for me.

Whatever! I'm sleeping here.

No.

Go over there.

My son-in-law bought it for me!

Go away!

No way!

What's wrong with you? Go away!

This is mine!

Gosh!

What in the world...?

[One Year Later]

My gosh...

What the...?

Wake up. Why are you sleeping in?

Hurry up and cook the rice.

I told you I have a film shoot this morning.

Oh, Right. All right.

My gosh.

Are you going to keep this up?

What?

You crossed the line.

You can't do his every night.

What did I do?

Don't you see this line here? Huh?

You promised t not cross this line.

Well, I was sleeping and did that unintentionally.

There are plenty of empty rooms here.

Why do you have to sleep on this mat?

We're legally separated,

so we're not husband and wife anymore.

Yeah, but I moved in here with you after the surgery

and was nursing you for an entire year now.

Oh, goodness. I'm so thankful.

You think I'm not thankful?

Do you really feel thankful?

Hang on. There's no time to waste.

Hee-sung is returning today.

Oh, goodness. What do I do?

I'm filming all day today.

Honey.

Oh! Since we're busy, should we

just have a cup of coffee and toast?

How can I start a full day with just lousy toast?

I have to have rice for breakfast.

Oh, gosh.

Goodness.

What? My goodness. He's acting weird.

Gosh, I should lie down for a bit longer.

She's so obsessed with rice!

She used to complain about me

wanting to eat rice all the time.

She's much worse than me. My gosh.

Why can't she just have toast and coffee

for breakfast? Gosh.

I've been doing housework for a year.

Look at these poor hands.

Gosh!

This is the best massage chair ever.

My body aches all over.

Oh, that feels good.

Oh. Hee-sung is coming today,

so be sure to prepare dinner.

Should we make steamed galbi

and stir-fried noodles?

Oh, Ha-young likes spicy chicken stew.

Make sure to cook that, too.

Hang on.

The kids will want to eat kimchi the most.

We don't have good kimchi in the house.

You should ask In-sung for some.

We're doing your birthday party tomorrow.

You want me to prepare a feast tonight, too?

Well, tomorrow's different.

They're coming today. We can't have them starve.

My goodness...

Oh, that feels good.

Daddy, catch me if you can!

I'm going to get you.

-Here I come. -Ahh!

Mi-na must've missed running around.

She doesn't want to go home.

I don't know who she takes after,

but she loves playing much more than studying.

Why are you looking at me?

I studied enough when I was a student.

My consultation sessions with you are over.

I guess it'll be harder to see you now.

I guess so.

Did the sessions help?

Yes. It helped me much more than I expected.

I got to learn about myself.

What kind of person do you think you are?

I seem to have a one-track mind.

If you feel like this isn't the way,

then you should consider alternatives.

All right. I will do that from now on.

Oh, it's cold.

Why is it so cold in the house?

Mother.

Did you turn off the heater again?

Yes, Mother.

It's not that cold yet.

Are you trying to freeze me to death?

Why do you keep turning it off?

You're cold since you're wearing something so thin.

Even when you're home, try to wear something warm.

If we're already wasting electricity right now,

how are we going to endure the long winter?

Again! You're trying to lecture me again!

I'll buy you something like this next time.

You should wear it. It's so warm and nice.

Oh, my head.

I told you to stop flaunting your poor background.

What's the matter with you?

You're always cooking bean-curd stew, kimchi stew,

and fast-fermented bean stew.

I can't live with you because you're so different.

But you enjoyed my steamed kimchi last time.

Goodness! I didn't enjoy it.

I was just having a taste.

Aren't you funny. You're unbelievable.

Oh, it's time to breastfeed Gun-woo.

Hey, where are you going? I'm not done talking to you.

Then, will you bring Gun-woo down for me?

What...me?

You go!

My goodness. Oh, my head hurts.

How did we end up with her, anyway?

She has no respect for her elders.

I can't let this happen. This won't do.

'Here Comes Hong Ae-ja.' The 5th special edition!

Do you want to see what I've brought this time?

If you're a woman, if you're a housewife,

you must get this set of pots.

And I've brought them today for just 59 dollars!

Just look at these dramatic components!

Small, medium, and large sizes!

From basic pots to stew pots!

But you know I never appear without a special bonus.

I always do, don't I?

It's one-plus-one!

You can get a second set for the price of one!

Just for half an hour, one-plus-one will begin!

Cut!

It's wonderful!

We have over 300 calls right now.

Well, you know who I am.

I'm Hong Ae-ja. I can get anything to sell out!

Your face is shining today, Ms. Hong.

You two...

Aren't you happy that you moved to

this TV station with me?

Of course! We're very thankful.

Thank you so much, Ms. Hong.

I'm even out of breath.

You have a call.

Oh, okay.

Thank you. Hang on.

Hello, Ji-sung?

How did it go with Mi-na?

She came in last.

She forgot her speech in the middle

and she walked off the stage crying.

What? She had it memorized just up until last night.

Ji-sung, when you were just three,

you got first place in the speech contest.

I know.

Mi-na, it's okay. Don't cry.

This won't do, Ji-sung.

Leave Mi-na at my house for a few days.

I must teach her to do it properly.

Good idea, do something with her, Mom.

Oh, what time is Hee-sung coming today?

I told her that she didn't need to come,

but she insisted.

I'm going to the airport later. See you later.

All right. Bye.

Wait.

Why hasn't In-sung called yet?

I wonder how she's doing.

We've operated the JW mobile system for a year

and we've profited in terms of product promotions.

The good results are from the

unique qualities that JW products have.

The simple yet unique designs of JW outdoor wear

have contributed in stabilizing our new mobile system.

Let's look at the next slide.

[Queen Bee]

She never picks up her phone.

Ms. Hong, get ready for the film shoot.

Oh, right.

It's ready. Okay, thank you.

Okay, we're going back to filming.

Standby!

The success of this project was mostly thanks to Ms. Ma.

Let's give her a big round of applause.

Ms. Ma, you did a wonderful job.

Thank you.

Can I have a word with you?

Don't feel pressured.

Take time to consider before making a decision.

Sir, I think it may be a bit hard

for us to hand it over to Ms. Ma.

As you can see...

Actually, we're trying to adapt your mobile system

and develop it into a new department.

Yes. I agree that it's worth investing in.

But since Ms. Ma's contract has ended with this project,

it's important to know who

will run that new department.

The mobile system is now stable

and the market share is high.

We're hoping that Ms. Ma continues to run the operation.

We discussed this with your main office in Boston,

and they're willing to follow your decision, Ms. Ma.

You can take a maternity leave and take a break,

or you can return to JW after your maternity leave.

In my opinion,

why don't we let the person who watched the project

closely for an entire year take over the...

Ms. Ma, what are your plans?

Since I was in charge of this system for a year,

of course I want to continue nurturing it.

If you give me some time,

I'll give it some thought and let you know.

If you decide to return after your maternity leave,

you'll be promoted as the director

of the mobile department.

In-sung.

Did you do well?

Yeah.

The president and the executive director were both satisfied.

You worked so hard for an entire year.

Good job.

I never would've made it without you.

Oh, come on. You did it on your own.

How much longer are you going to come to work?

Your project is done,

so why don't you take a break from tomorrow?

Jung-geun, actually...

What? Your project isn't over?

No. The company is organizing a department

with that project.

It's understandable since the company made a huge profit.

But what does that have to do with you?

You're associated with an outside consultant company.

The president spoke to my main office in Boston,

and the company wants me to take charge of this new team.

Surely, you're not thinking of doing it, are you?

I really want to.

What? You want to?

That's nonsense!

Your baby's due in just a few days!

You can't take over a new department!

I'll just get one month of maternity leave.

Who's going to raise our baby after that?

Why are you looking at me?

There's absolutely nothing I can do for you.

That is for a woman do!

Men can't give birth, but they can raise kids.

What are you talking about?

Can you take the paternity leave instead?

Oh my gosh!

Victory. This is your eldest son, So Jung-geun.

Victory. At ease.

So, Jung-geun. When is In-sung quitting?

It must be hard for her, too.

She should stop being so stubborn and stop working.

Actually, Dad...

In-sung is so busy with work.

She's in charge of so many important tasks at work.

I'm sure she's thinking about it.

What?

Fine. Let's talk about it at home.

I'll talk to her tonight when you come home.

...no more than 59 dollars!

Ms. Lee.

Why are you watching TV during your work hours?

Those pots are on a great sale right now.

Huh?

Get one more set for the price of one!

One-plus-one.

And the large stew pot is on the house!

One-plus-one?

Oh my goodness!

We're almost out of stock!

Even before our 30-minute limit, we're almost out!

My goodness, what do we do?

We only have three left!

My goodness!

Now only two!

Oh wow! We only have one left!

Only one set left!

Who will be the lucky buyer?

Who?

'Here Comes Hong Ae-ja' the 5th episode!

I have for you the perfect pot set!

They were the hottest pots this year.

Why is the line busy?

Hello?

The pot set that's on air right now.

I'll take the last set.

Yes.

Mr. So.

Oh, Mr. Ma.

Why did you get so much groceries?

Hee-sung is coming tonight.

That's not the problem. I'm worried about In-sung.

In-sung? What's the matter?

She went to work again today.

She's just about to give birth.

Gosh, In-sung and her greed for work!

Why is she being so stubborn anyway?

How would I know?

She should stay home and prepare to give birth

and study up to be a new mom.

She must want to work until she goes into labor.

That's because her mother didn't teach her right.

Gosh!

There are certain things that a man should do

and a woman should do.

But my wife thinks that's all a bunch of garbage.

I thought she changed after last year's surgery.

She hasn't changed a bit.

I should've just given her my kidney and got it over with.

I moved in to nurse her, and now just look at me.

She asks for rice three times a day!

When she's out working,

she can buy herself a few meals!

She always insists on eating at home.

And when I've put things away and sit down to rest

she asks me to get water or fruit.

I just have no time to sit down when I'm home.

Gosh. Me and my rotten life!

Goodness!

Hello? Did you prepare dinner yet?

What? Galbi soup?

I told you to make steamed galbi, not galbi soup!

You know how much Hee-sung likes it.

Why don't you listen to a word I say?

Hurry up and make steamed galbi right now!

Oh, gosh.

He doesn't do anything right.

I just can't stand him.

Is the flight delayed?

Why aren't they coming out?

Mom!

Hee-sung!

Mom!

Let me look at you!

You lost some weight!

You didn't like the food there?

No. Mom!

Mom!

Oh, goodness!

Mother, how are you?

Oh, good! Good!

Grandma, I'm here too.

My goodness! Ha-young!

You're so tanned!

Let's go to my house, sweetie.

Grandpa made a bunch of yummy food for you.

You live with Dad?

Your dad takes such good care of me.

He prepares three meals a day for me.

He's a pretty decent cook.

-Let's go, Ha-young. -For real?

Father cooks?

Let's go.

Dad, In-sung...

What about In-sung?

She's been promoted to a director position.

But she won't be able to work

once she has the baby.

Why would she quit when she's been promoted?

Do you know how high a rank a director is?

Who cares about that?

Her priority should be having and raising her child.

Dad, did you want to talk to me?

Yes.

You didn't come with In-sung?

No. Hee-sung is coming tonight,

so she went to her parents' house.

I heard that she was promoted.

Huh?

Oh, yeah...

Why would she be promoted

when she's about to have a baby?

Surely, she's not going back to work

right after having the baby, right?

Well...

It won't be easy for her to quit her work for the baby...

The company wants to hold on to her

because she's so competent.

Then what about the baby?

Who's going to take care of the infant?

The baby needs to be raised by the mother.

She can't get a babysitter already.

I agree with you.

I'll talk about it with In-sung later.

What's there to talk about? It's obvious.

But she's so competent that

she was promoted to director.

I don't care how competent she is.

She needs to be a mom first.

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

How is she going to continue working?

You want Jung-geun to take a paternity leave?

Mi-na, say hello to Ha-young in Chinese.

It takes more than private lessons

to learn a second language.

Gosh...

Can I join you guys tomorrow?

You should accept Woo-jae's heart now.

We shouldn't let women control us.

We should stand firm on this.

Wait!

I have a very important announcement to make.
