[Final Episode]

Stay seated.

Sit right down.

Here.

He's a fast one...

It looks so delicious!

I'll take it, Father.

No, it's okay.

We can talk more after we eat.

Hee-sung, the tan looks great on you.

I initially tried to avoid getting too tanned,

but later I just stopped caring.

Oh, right. Is your due date next month?

I have a month left.

In-sung never even had morning sickness.

She had no time for that.

She was too busy with work.

Sis...

Come on, let's eat first and then talk.

Eat up.

Wow! Dad, you really made all of this?

You're just amazing.

Father, you're the best!

Go ahead and eat up.

This isn't that great.

I told him to make steamed galbi but he made the soup.

But think of how he used to be.

It was a disaster whenever he set foot in the kitchen.

Oh, don't get me started.

Your mother works me like a mule.

It's exhausting.

Oh, give me a break.

You get to stay in this big house

and you get to cook whatever you want to eat..

You don't even need to work, remember?

Do you know how hard it is for me

to go out and make money?

I don't stay home and play all day.

You think house chores ever end?

After you do one thing, there comes another.

After you do the dishes, there are more dishes.

Dad, I think that's how house chores are.

They just never end.

Right. It's so hard to raise kids and do housework.

Gosh Mom, you did the housework and raised us all.

And even had your own work...

That's why I fell ill.

And I'm paying the price for it.

I'm doing everything that I didn't do for her before.

Oh, goodness. Give me a break.

Oh, it's my phone.

Hello, Mr. So?

My youngest daughter came home, so we're having dinner.

In-sung and Jung-geun are here, too.

I'm sorry for interrupting your family dinner.

I heard that In-sung was promoted to director today.

I just can't understand her. That's why I'm calling.

Just how much longer is she going to work?

Huh?

In-sung was promoted to director today?

But she's about to give birth.

What do you mean, promoted?

Were you promoted to director?

Yes.

Mr. So. I'll call you right back.

Just what are you thinking of doing?

Are you really going to accept the offer?

Yes. I don't want to quit my job.

And I've been working on this project for a year.

In-sung, but what about our baby?

I told you. You can take a paternity leave

and take care of the baby.

You want Jung-geun to take a paternity leave?

In-sung, you're too obsessed with work.

Take a break for the baby and go back to work later.

He's right. You're not making any sense.

How can you ask a guy to take a leave for the baby?

What's wrong with that?

There's no law against new dads taking time off.

Paternity leave is encouraged by the law, too.

Come on, Mother!

Right, Mom?

You're joking, right?

No guy would take time off to raise a baby.

Of course women have to give birth,

but a man can raise a baby just as well.

There are many cases like that with foreigners.

Gosh...

Where I have just been, it was natural for women

women to work on their farms

and men to stay home and raise kids.

I'm not even talking about gender roles.

She cares more about her work than her own health.

I was hoping she'd take this chance to get some rest.

I agree.

Well, there are responsibilities that she must fulfill.

In-sung, what do you want to do?

Do you want to stay home after you have your baby?

Or do you want to continue working?

Of course I want to continue working.

What about your baby, then?

After taking one month of maternity leave,

I can work until my project ends

while Jung-geun takes a paternity leave.

And after my project ends,

I can take the rest of the maternity leave.

We can take turns like that.

Even if she's so competent

that the company won't let her go,

how can she think of working right after giving birth?

Who's supposed to raise the baby, then?

Actually, I was going to take a break for the baby.

But since they're expanding this project,

I feel like I'm the only person who can take charge.

This is what I'm best at.

It'd be hard for your company to find a new person

if you really quit.

You should do what you want.

There's nothing wrong with that.

But In-sung, isn't it tiring for you?

I mean, your stomach is this big.

I don't think it's easy becoming a mom.

I need to live my life,

and also take care of my baby...

Yeah, it's not easy to live as a woman.

We have to multi-task.

I know.

Hee-sung, are you leaving right away?

Well, I have to discuss it further with Hyun-woo,

but we might stay a bit longer.

You said it's fun, but I guess you're tired.

Yeah, take a break.

You like to look good, but didn't get to do any of that lately.

You hung in there longer than expected.

Hey, that's not the reason why I'm staying here.

Yeah. You'll find plenty of people to help here, too.

You can move right into this house.

We have plenty of empty rooms here.

What does that mean?

He said, he wants to live here

since there are so many yummy snacks.

Goodness! How many languages can you speak, Ha-young?

You can also speak Mongolian.

You must know how to speak English, too.

Yeah, a bit.

Wow!

Mi-na, you learned Chinese, too.

Why don't you say hi to Ha-young in Chinese?

I don't know.

-Goodness. -You don't know?

Why not? Come on, try it.

No.

I think you just have to be born with language skills.

Ha-young is totally good with languages.

Oh gosh...

What's wrong with you two?

Even when I have my baby, I'll never talk like them.

I'm going let my baby exercise and run around.

Let's talk after you have your baby.

Yeah.

When I saw him excelling, I wanted to teach him even more.

Gosh.

In-sung, you just wait until you have your own baby.

I bet you'll be worse than Ji-sung or Hee-sung.

Who's calling at this hour?

Oh, it's Woo-jae.

Huh? Are you seeing Woo-jae again?

No.

It must be about our event at JW's park tomorrow.

He must want to ask me about the catering.

He helped with Hee-sung's wedding, too.

He must still have feelings for you!

Ji-sung, it's time you accepted Woo-jae!

It's not like that.

Hello?

Yes?

'Hello?'

The time will be for lunch.

And the food...

Huh?

There's no need for that. We can take care of it.

Just say her former son-in-law wanted to pay for the party.

You can hang out there all day tomorrow.

We're not even supposed to talk on the phone anymore.

I'm so sorry.

Sorry for making you do this.

Oh, come on.

You let me know whenever you need my help.

Listen, can I come join you tomorrow?

I want to help you out with this and that.

No. You're doing more than enough.

It's the weekend. Just have fun.

I may not look it now, but I was a Marine.

And I was an aspiring poet, too.

Whenever I opened my mouth,

words came out as poetry.

But my wife divorced me,

and I had to freeload off your house.

When my wife got sick, I felt sorry and moved back in

and started doing the house chores.

You're just amazing, Father.

You're the best.

That's not my point.

My point is that everything happens so fast.

You can become like me, too.

We can't let women control us.

Men have to stand firm for a household to be stable.

And if you can't do it alone,

we men have to combine our powers.

Yeah.

Honey.

Oh, Hee-sung.

I want something sweet and sour.

Get me something.

Okay, I'll get it. Sweet and sour.

Sweet and sour.

Sweet...

Might as well use the prettiest plate...

Sweet and sour.

Stop right there!

Huh?

Did you listen to a word I said?

I was saying this all happened because

I wasn't standing up like a true man.

Oh, right...

But Hee-sung isn't controlling.

She's so feminine.

That's her way of manipulating you.

You do things for her without even complaining.

Well, yeah.

Anyway, let me get these to her first.

Sweet and sour.

Oh, gosh!

He's already her servant. It's too late for him.

What do I do, Father?

Do I really have to take a paternity leave?

What are you talking about?

I'll never let that happen.

We boys should combine our forces

and show them that we're not pushovers!

Father, I put my faith in you.

Do that.

Oh, I see.

So when everyone is happy, we get up and...

That's a brilliant idea!

Tomorrow, we'll settle this once and for all.

Great. I like the idea.

All right. I'll see you tomorrow, then.

Good!

Oh, hi.

Hello, Father.

Where's your mother's birthday party tomorrow?

Oh, we couldn't find a place at the last-minute,

so we're doing it at JW's park.

Oh, that sounds great.

I can get some fresh air thanks to your mother.

You must be tired. Go upstairs and rest.

Yes, Father. Good night.

Good night.

Dad, good night.

All right. Good night.

I bet it'll be the first time Mr. Ma stands up for himself.

[Happy 60th Birthday for Our Beloved Queen Bee!]

Mi-na, Ha-young, be careful.

How cute.

Catch me if you can!

I'll catch you...!

Goodness, my girls!

Why did you prepare so much? I was so surprised.

But it's your 60th birthday.

Oh, come on.

People don'tcelebrate their 60th birthdays anymore.

I mean, look at me. I'm still so young.

You're right, Mom.

People will think you're in your thirties!

I think you're the prettiest, Mom!

Oh, goodness!

Wait, why are the guys

standing in a group like that?

So you're saying

when everybody is having a good time,

we should speak up about this, right?

That's right.

My wife has to know that this is

what we want and demand.

But I'm worried that we're going to ruin the party.

Well, we can't bring this up at any other time.

We have to demand In-sung to take at least

one year of rest to focus on the baby.

It's not every day that we get together like this.

I think what's most important is the baby's happiness.

Who cares if it's the mom or the dad that takes care of it?

Gosh, I'm worried about his guy.

He might say something weird.

Right. Hey, don't say anything and when we start to speak,

you just agree with us. All right?

I really don't mean anything by this.

All I want is for In-sung to take a break and relax.

And it's true that our baby needs a mother.

Please help me with this.

When the time is right, I'll give you the signal.

And we'll speak out that In-sung will have to

take some time off after the baby is born. All right?

All right.

Go for it!

Why are you dragging me here?

What does her birthday have to do with me?

Come on.

We have to wish her a happy birthday.

We're all getting old together.

Come on. Let's go.

Let go of me.

Oh my goodness!

My former in-laws are here!

Yes, your birthday party is at our company park,

so of course we should be here.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

Happy birthday.

How are you feeling, ma'am?

How did the medical test results come out?

Oh, I'm much better now.

Oh, goodness. Thank goodness!

That's wonderful!

You don't know how worried I was for you.

Oh, goodness. That's wonderful.

Goodness.

You're the only one who showed

any interest in my test results.

Of course I was worried.

It's wonderful that you're fine.

My gosh, that must be why you've gotten even prettier!

My gosh, you're so beautiful!

We didn't even get to buy you a gift.

Oh, don't worry.

Should I give you this...?

Oh, no!

You're so thin. Keep it on.

So happy to see you! Take a seat.

Happy birthday.

Thank you!

-You should take a seat. -All right. Thank you.

Thank you.

It's so great to see you again.

Yeah.

Jung-ie, are you ready?

One, two, three, start!

Sun-jae, I can't go any further.

Really?

Okay, we can stop for today.

Shall we take a break?

How are you feeling?

I feel much better.

Jung-ie.

Huh? Seung-geun!

What are you two doing here?

We come to this park every now and then to work out.

What about you, dude?

Did you call me 'dude?'

Oh, all right.

What brings you here, brother?

I'm here for In-sung's mother's birthday party.

But I can't find them.

They said it was here.

Hey, there's Dad!

Huh?

Hey, let's go together. Come on.

Yeah. Let's wish her a happy birthday.

Mom, happy birthday!

Happy birthday, Mom!

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday dear mother, happy birthday to you!

Mom, happy birthday!

Mom, blow out the candles.

I can't believe how many candles I have to blow out.

I can't believe I'm already 60.

Wow!

Happy birthday, Mom!

Happy birthday!

I'm so thrilled that you all came

to wish me a happy birthday.

Although we don't have much to offer...

My dear daughters and their husbands...

And my in-laws...

I hope everybody has a blast today!

Wait!

I have an important announcement to make.

What is it?

Hurry up and tell them.

We're having Ha-young's younger sibling!

Huh?

Oh, great! Good job!

Oh my gosh! Congratulations!

Congratulations! Hee-sung!

Oh my goodness! Congratulations!

-Mom... -Congratulations!

Congratulations, Hee-sung!

Why didn't you tell us earlier?

Congratulations!

Hee-sung, congratulations.

Congratulations.

So my youngest daughter is pregnant, too.

How can I ever ask for anything more?

I want to tell my daughters just how much I love them.

My eldest, Ji-sung.

Second, In-sung.

And my youngest, Hee-sung.

I made it this far because I had these girls with me.

Thank you, girls.

I love you, my treasures.

Their happiness is the reason I live!

And one more person...

There's one more person I'd like to thank and apologize to.

And to say that I love him...

It's my loving husband and poet, Ma Jung-ki.

Huh? What...?

My dear, thank you for living with a woman like me.

And this is a gift for you.

What...is this?

Open it up.

Come on, open it.

[Tales of Winds]

I was cleaning out your study and saw your poems.

I published a book of poetry with them.

Thank you, my dear.

But you hated me writing poems.

That's not true at all.

You don't know how proud I was with your poetry.

Applause!

Mr. Ma, what are you waiting for?

You should sing her a song to say thank you!

Oh, come on.

What are you waiting for?

We should dance on a day like this!

Oh, I'm so happy!

You're having a baby sibling!

The tall buildings and fancy things are all good.

But as long as I'm with my love,

nothing matters.

As long as I'm with my love, I don't need anything.

In-sung, so what are you going to do?

About what?

About our baby. Who's going to raise it?

We'll have to see.

There's no law saying that only moms have to do that.

Ma In-sung!

Jung-geun.

What is it?

My stomach hurts.

Your stomach? There's a bathroom over there.

No, not that...

What?

I think the baby is coming out.

The baby is coming out?

Ahh!

In-sung!

Ahh!

Our baby is coming out!

Baby?

My gosh! Hey!

Mom!

To the hospital!

Honey!

Hospital! Now!

Ahh!

In-sung's baby is coming out!

So, who is going to raise the baby?
