(Parental guidance is advised.)

Mother, you should open my gift.

I'll look at it later.

She got it just for you. You should open it.

How is it? You can even get it exchanged.

Since it's winter, you should wear it often.

I already have plenty.

- Mother. - Mom.

Even if you have a lot, she got it for you.

You keep talking about sincerity.

Do you take my sincerity lightly?

I gave up my only son.

I have plenty of scarves like this.

Why do you keep quibbling with me? I said nothing wrong.

- That's not... - Honey, you should stop.

You're right, Mother.

Now that I think about it,

you let me marry your only son.

How could I pay you back?

I'm just so grateful.

Let's hurry and eat.

Why isn't Ha-yoon coming back?

I'll go take a look.

Mom.

Please brighten up and treat her better.

Ja-kyung is making an effort.

Yes, yes.

- Excuse me. - Yes?

- Did you see Ha-yoon? - Ha-yoon?

I'm not sure.

Let me go to my mom.

- You're okay. - The kid has been crying all the time,

but I don't know his mom.

I see.

You did fine. We'll find his mother.

I feel like I saw him somewhere.

Hey, who's your mom?

Im Eun-hee.

- Her phone number... - Yes.

Hold on.

It's here.

Tomorrow? Yes.

I see.

Gun-woo wants to meet tomorrow.

He told me to stop by the community center and bring all the papers.

Then, why are you looking like that?

What do I look like?

You should be excited. We're going to get Ha-yoon back.

That's right.

I don't know this number.

Don't take it. It must be a reporter.

Wait, give that to me.

I've been so frustrated, so I need to yell.

- Don't do that! - Give it to me!

Hello!

Is this Im Eun-hee's number?

What will you do if it is?

There is a child called Im Ha-yoon here looking for Im Eun-hee.

Ha-yoon? Hello?

Hello? Where is he?

Ha-yoon.

How dare you do this during dinner?

Don't do that. Ha-yoon, come here.

It's cold.

Wear this.

Isn't that Kim Ja-kyung?

Kim Ja-kyung? She is.

Really?

What happened, Ha-yoon? You shouldn't do this.

Oh dear.

She's your mom?

Yes.

He still hasn't adjusted yet.

She's not my mom!

Are you going to keep that up?

Let's go.

No! I want to go home!

Where do you think you're going?

I'll have to scold you.

Ha-yoon!

- Mom! - Ha-yoon.

Ha-yoon. Are you okay?

You shouldn't do this.

It's okay.

- Anyway, thank you for your service. - Yes.

Let's go.

No! I want to go with Mom!

You can't do this.

Please give me and Ha-yoon some time.

What are you saying?

Ha-yoon, let's go home with Mom and Auntie.

You can't.

Seok-jin, we need to talk.

I have nothing to talk about.

- Mom! - Ha-yoon!

Who's the mother?

Are you going to disobey me?

- Mom! - Ha-yoon!

Ha-yoon!

Ha-yoon.

- Seok-jin! - Please, we need to talk!

- Don't do this! - Talk about what?

- Ha-yoon, wait! - Mom!

- Ha-yoon. - Stay still.

- Ha-yoon. - Ja-kyung. Get the car ready.

- Seok-jin! - You stay out of this!

Why are you doing this?

This is abuse. I'll report you!

- Do it. - Seok-jin.

Isn't this what you wanted?

Our matter, your matter, and Ha-yoon's matter.

You're the one who wanted the world to find out about this.

- Who do you think you're accusing? - Hold on.

I have all the custody rights regarding Ha-yoon.

I'm not holding back because I don't know that.

I already know!

Don't you feel pity for a mother who just found out about her son?

You have to give her a chance.

If you keep everything for yourself, what is left for us?

We didn't know about the child before,

but we can't give him up now that we know.

I'm telling you!

- That's why I'm asking for some time with Ha-yoon. - No.

It's tougher to take this slowly.

Ja-kyung and I...

have to ask your permission even though he's our child. This is ridiculous.

Don't think you're the only one being treated unfairly.

Right.

Thanks for saving a child who was on the verge of death.

But, please don't overdo it.

- Seok-jin. - Ha-yoon!

Ha-yoon. Oh dear, Ha-yoon.

Ha-yoon, wait for me.

- Ha-yoon! - Seok-jin!

Ha-yoon!

Seriously.

Don't you dare move.

Ha-yoon.

From now on Dad, me,

and you are one family.

That woman isn't your mom.

She didn't give birth to you.

No. My mom is Im Eun-hee.

It's fine. He'll understand later. Let's go.

Mother will definitely have something to say.

About what? It's not like we asked him to leave.

Mom.

Mom.

I'm sorry, Mother.

- How is Ha-yoon. - Just leave him for now.

He needs to realize things.

That boy keeps crying all the time.

He's stubborn no matter how much we tell him about his mother.

I had to scold him.

It's his first time.

If he understands right away, he's an adult and not a child.

You're right.

But, this is upsetting.

You don't become a mom with words.

He has to feel loved in order to run into your arms.

If you scold him and lash at him, he won't feel that you're his mother.

You don't become a mom just by giving birth.

Are you saying Ha-yoon left because of Ja-kyung?

Don't do that.

You half-wit.

Don't just take her side.

Think about how to get Ha-yoon to like her!

We will, Mother.

Don't answer like you're picking up bread crumbs.

- Fine. Leave now. - Yes. By the way,

you should discuss the wedding with my mom.

You don't need to do anything. Her mom will take care of things.

- Right? - Yes.

My mom is good at these things.

You can trust her to take care of it.

- I'd do that if I had two sons. - Excuse me?

I'd do that if I had two sons,

since I'd be throwing away one of them.

Mother, you're funny.

We'll be going.

- Let's go. - Yes.

This is just like the old adage.

Look at me, cooking porridge for a dog to eat.

Please let me meet him once, will you?

What's with this drama? One gave birth and one raised him.

Giving birth?

She seemed busy caring about everyone's opinion.

Why are you complaining to me?

Mi-sook. Please let me see him once.

You should help her.

Ha-yoon has to come here tomorrow, anyway.

Is that true? What time?

He'll be here early in the morning. You should come.

Thank you. Thank you.

What are you going to do?

If my mom finds out, she might chase us out of here.

I won't ask for more. I know what I'm doing.

I just want to see him before I go on trial.

- Trial? - How can we not go to trial?

Your family won't listen at all.

I guess the world will find out about Seo Ha-yoon the messy way.

I'm upset, too.

Be here early.

Okay. Please take care of him at home.

He cried a lot today.

Make sure he doesn’t get a fever at night.

He's been down with a fever every night already.

- Really? - How can he take this?

Both sides are trying to rip him apart.

He won't eat and he won't smile, even though he used to laugh so much.

He's a mess.

I wonder if he'll be okay to act like this.

Acting isn't the problem right now.

Oh dear, Ha-yoon.

Hey. Do you have to say it like that?

Is this our fault? Who's the one trying to rip apart Ha-yoon here?

Okay, fine.

I'm just saying this is how things are.

Don't come here next time.

I don't care. I can chase you to the end of the world if it concerns Ha-yoon.

Ha-yoon, why did you do that?

Ha-yoon, are you mad at Grandma?

Are you?

Will you look at me, please?

Grandma.

Let me go home.

My baby.

You're so young, yet so much is happening to you.

It's a lie that Ms. Ja-kyung gave birth to me, right?

Ja-kyung...

did give birth to you.

You should forget about Im Eun-hee.

You have to endure this tough time.

How could you change after a night?

Hey. Your sister is late.

Maybe she's sleeping over.

They're not married yet. Why would she sleep over?

They're not married but they have a kid. You're fine with that?

They must be back.

Speak of the devil.

Welcome. How was it?

Did she treat you like a princess? Did she like the scarf?

What princess?

The kid ran away and it was a mess.

Ha-yoon ran away again?

He's a habitual offender, isn't he.

So, did you find him? What happened?

A taxi driver took him to the police station, so we got him back.

That's a relief. Why is he already causing so much trouble?

Sons are all the same.

What did I do again?

I'm tired. I'm really tired.

How did that woman find him there?

The police watched with wide eyes, like they were watching a show.

- This is so embarrassing. - Hey.

You didn't act like that in front of everyone, did you?

Do you think I'm crazy?

I was so surprised so I just hurried and left.

Mom, I don't think I can be a good mom.

You'll get better when you two are closer. Don't worry.

I don't know.

- Mom! - Ha-yoon.

Are you okay?

- Ha-yoon! - Mom.

- Ha-yoon. - Mom.

That happened?

Ha-yoon must be suffering a lot.

He must've really wanted to see her...

to get on a taxi and ask for his mom.

Ha-yoon was dragged away while he called Eun-hee's name.

I couldn't hold myself back.

You should've just brought him.

Eun-hee has all the rights.

I wanted to do that.

But, I couldn't struggle with Ha-yoon in the middle.

The one who loves more will end up losing.

Seo Seok-jin only talked about the law.

Eun-hee was the only one worried about Ha-yoon there.

The biological mother just sat in the car out of embarrassment.

This is so frustrating.

If we can prove that they abandoned Ha-yoon,

the adoption can't be canceled.

That way, Eun-hee can prove that she didn't kidnap Ha-yoon. It's so unfair.

Did they all take rat poison together?

How can they continue to spew such nonsense?

Gun-woo.

Is there any way to end this nicely...

without hurting Ha-yoon?

Right now,

for you to win the trial,

we have to prove that...

Ha-yoon was abandoned.

How can he take this?

Both sides are trying to rip him apart.

He won't eat and he won't smile, even though he used to laugh so much.

He's a mess.

For you to win the trial,

we have to prove that...

Ha-yoon was abandoned.

Ha-yoon.

Mom didn't kidnap you.

But, I don't want to say that you were abandoned either.

You're simply my Ha-yoon.

What should I do...

for Ha-yoon to be safe and happy?

This upsets me so much.

- Mom! - Ha-yoon!

There you are.

My baby.

Can you breathe?

- Are you okay? Were you well? - Yes.

- What about you? - Yes.

Mom was okay.

Ha-yoon, give Auntie a hug.

Give me a hug. My little bun.

How were you? Let's see.

Oh dear.

Seo Ha-yoon. Which Auntie will you choose?

This isn't the time to ask that.

What did I tell you?

- Both of you. - No!

- You have to choose. You like Auntie, right? - No, you like me.

No, I like both of you.

Ha-yoon, you grew up while I wasn't looking.

- Me? - Yes.

Mom. I'm hungry.

I knew you would be hungry, so I brought my lunch box.

- You two should sit down and talk. - Thank you.

Ha-yoon, are you hungry?

- Please sit down. - Thank you.

Let's sit down.

Eat this, too.

- Mom. - Why?

Nothing.

Why? You're making me curious. What did you want to say?

You're my real mother, right?

You gave birth to me,

and Mother Ja-kyung is my step mother, right?

Who says so? Did Grandma say that?

Dad and Ms. Ja-kyung...

said Ms. Ja-kyung had me.

I said I'm Im Eun-hee's son.

I won't go to Dad's house anymore.

I'm going to live with you.

I won't go there, ever again.

I don't want to act.

I want to live with you.

Ha-yoon.

I'm...

not your biological mother.

I didn’t give birth to you.

Why?

It would've been better if I had you.

I'm sorry.

Why didn't you give birth to me?

You're really not my biological mom?

I'm not.

Ja-kyung gave birth to you and asked me to take care of you.

She couldn't raise you back then.

That's why you should be nice to Ms. Ja-kyung.

Just like you are to me, be nice to her. Okay?

Why won't you answer?

Also, you shouldn't get on a taxi without an adult.

That's very dangerous.

Then, how do I get to you when I want to see Mom?

If nobody will take me to you,

I have to go alone. How do I find you?

Ha-yoon.

Mom will be going far away.

Don't come find me.

Even if you come for me, I won't be there.

I won't pick up your calls.

Where will you go?

When will you go?

I'm going far away for a long time.

Then, will I not see you anymore?

Why not?

We'll meet again next time.

When you're a lot older,

let's meet then. Okay?

Mom, don't cry.

All right.

"The number you dialed is unavailable at this time..."

- I'm sorry. Please give me a moment. - Yes.

What's wrong? She's not picking up?

Yes.

I came to work after she met Ha-yoon.

What's wrong?

She didn't pick up my call, so I thought she was taking with you and the lawyer.

I got it. I'll try, too.

Okay.

She didn't change her mind, did she?

"The number you dialed is unavailable at this time..."

What?

No, she didn't call.

I'm here looking at kitchenware with Dae-sang.

I'll call you if I can get to her. Okay.

What is it? Eun-hee isn't picking up?

She must be upset after seeing Ha-yoon in the morning.

How could she not be upset?

I thought mothers were all the same.

But, that doesn't seem to be true.

When I was at the orphanage, I saw a lot of mothers who should be reported.

A mother who abandoned brothers came back to leave her daughter, too.

- Gosh. - Compared to the others, Eun-hee is a really kind mother.

She's so young, too.

- She's such a gracious person. - Yes.

This would be better.

Then, let's use this design...

for the soup and rice bowl.

I think we should use different bowls for the soup, rice, and side dishes.

All right.

Then,

- this might be better. - Oh dear.

What?

Isn't this so pretty and luxurious?

It's from Germany. It doesn't fit in here, but it was so pretty and I had to get it.

I wonder how blessed you have to be...

to drink tea in these and live doing housework.

You're so noisy about a tea set.

- I'll get it. - No! It must be expensive.

How much would it be? It's a tea set. I'll buy it.

Excuse me!

What are you doing?

Mom said she's going far away for a while.

- She told me not to call her. - I see.

Then, you should hold it in.

I want to see my dad, but I hold back.

Yu-ri, how do you hold back?

I study so I don't think about him.

You don't think about him?

You should act so you don't think of her.

I keep thinking of her.

I want to see Mom.

Dad said I shouldn't cry,

but I keep crying.

Adults don't understand how children feel.

Telling us to stop crying won't stop our tears.

You can cry in front of me.

Yu-ri. I want to see Mom.

Gun-woo. Myoung-sun.

I'm sorry.

I'm going to give up the trial.

Gun-woo. You found a good lawyer even though you're so busy.

Thank you for always encouraging me.

Myoung-sun. I can't describe how thankful and sorry I am.

Ms. Park, Seok-jin, and Ja-kyung.

I desperately want to reveal everything about them and yell to the world.

But, Ha-yoon will have to be thrown out naked with them.

I can't do that.

Ha-yoon's heart is already so scarred,

and I can't hurt him too.

The seven years I spent with...

Ha-yoon and everyone was so happy and precious to me.

Ha-yoon stayed in my arms for seven years.

Now, I want to pray for Ha-yoon to spread...

his wings and grow up to be a great person.

I decided to leave all of you.

Eun-hee.

I'm so sorry and thankful to you all.

I'll definitely repay you.

Thank you so much.

I can't read it.

Are you okay?

Eun-hee's little sister left...

when she was about Ha-yoon's age, too.

That girl. What will she do by herself? Why did she leave?

Seriously.

She loves him more.

Eun-hee is the one...

who loves Ha-yoon the most.

Why does she have to give up?

She's the mother. She can win, so why give up?

So what if Ha-yoon was abandoned by parents like that?

So what if she's a mother who raised him instead of giving birth to him?

Ha-yoon won't blame her for that.

Seriously.

I was afraid this might happen.

Who is it?

- Open the door. - Gosh.

Seok-jin.

Where's Eun-hee?

Why are you here again?

What more do you have to say?

It's none of your business.

- Is Eun-hee not here? - She's not here right now.

- Give her this. - Is that money?

You're giving Eun-hee money?

I won't have anything to say to Ha-yoon later.

She's the one who raised him. If I don't pay her a penny,

what would Ha-yoon think of me?

- You're not that nice now, either. - You're acting up again.

If you...

come in and mess up our house again,

- I'll really sue you. - Go away.

You don't avoid crap because it's scary. You avoid it because it's dirty.

What?

If the women are being emotional, you should stop them.

Trial?

We can do it. We have the rights.

But, we're the biological parents.

We didn't know Ha-yoon was born.

But we know now, so we want to be a family.

What judge would let a stepmother keep the child?

- This country favors blood over tears. - Is that a threat or a request?

Think as you wish.

Your family sent Ha-yoon to Eun-hee.

Kim Ja-kyung's mother abandoned Ha-yoon in a mess.

None of that shows any consideration for Ha-yoon.

Would a judge still side with such biological parents?

I don't need to hear that.

Anyway, this is a problem between Eun-hee and the biological parents.

Ja-kyung and Ha-yoon are already famous actors.

Make sure you advise her so this doesn't drag on.

That's better for both of us.

Is that why you brought an envelope?

You want her to be quiet and let this go again?

All of you think Eun-hee is a pushover, don't you?

You hold Ha-yoon hostage and ask her to do this and that.

You drag her along when it's convenient.

You even married her but didn't register the marriage, then threw her away.

You don't think about what you did to her, right?

Just give this to her and comfort her.

Let me make a request.

What good will it do to you by making a mess?

I'll tell Ha-yoon that you paid her plenty,

so take that and leave.

You're...

the one who needs to stop coming here.

Just don't touch Ha-yoon.

I don't want to come here, either.

You're holding back pretty well today.

This is my duty in my name, so give it to Eun-hee.

Tell her thank you.

Go away!

You did well.

Don't tell them Eun-hee left.

This is unfair. I'm furious.

I would do anything if this didn't involve Ha-yoon.

I'm so upset that Ha-yoon is a son born to that kind of family.

I can't believe it.

(Person Who Gives You Happiness)

We finally got him back after so long. He's so precious.

I'm so happy that we even get to act together like this.

Yes. I'm fine as long as you're doing okay.

As long as Ha-yoon is happy, I'm fine.

- Are you happy? - Yes.

I'm happy, too.

I love you, Ha-yoon.

I want to be closer to you.

Mom got married because of you.

Will you call me Mom?

Yu-ri. I want to see Mom.
