Because This Is My First Life

Hello.

Hi.

I'm Yang Ho Rang. We were in the same class in middle school. In second year.

Yeah. I know.

Actually, I wanted to be in the same class as you.

You got the highest scores in our whole grade.

Starting today I'll be your desk partner. Help me out so I can get my grades up, so I could be admitted to a university in Seoul, okay?

But, how come

you speak in Seoul dialect?

What?

I transferred here from Seoul. You didn't know?

I know, but didn't you come when you were in kindergarten?

Hey, teacher! Teacher's here.

Look here, you girls, let's get our wits together here.

You guys are 18 now, okay? Juniors!

And as you can see, we've got a transfer student. Woo Soo Ji.

She just transferred today from Jinju. Say hi.

That's the end?

Yes.

Go and sit in that empty seat.

What the heck? Is she a volleyball player?

Make sure to get your parent's signature on your report cards.

Oh no!

Ji Ho, you are first in our grade again, of course?

2 out of 147

You're second?

If you're second, then who's first?

Wow, she's ranked first.

What? Is this true?

- Soo Ji, teach us how to study.
- Me, too.

- Teach me, too.
- Get in line, I asked her first.

Why get in line? Let's all do it together.

Wow, that volleyball is ranked first in our grade?

She only looks like she'd be good in volleyball. How can she be first in our grade?

Looks like she always ranked first back in Jinju, too.

Hey, do you know why Volleyball transferred here to Namhae?

I don't know. Why?

Her mom ran a fancy restaurant in Jinju, but with a married man...

I hear that she doesn't even have a dad.

Or she has one, but she doesn't know who he is, some people say.

Don't say such things to anyone, okay?

Of course not. Why would I?

Aish, look at these stars.

So many, like a pack of dogs.

This place sucks. Out in the boonies.

What's your problem?

Do you want to die?

No, why would I?

What's wrong?

I heard that you said my mom had a fancy restaurant?

That's just what I heard.

Oh, really?

So saying my mom had an affair with a married man and ran away here? You just heard that, too?

Let's go. Let's see who wins.

Let go of her and talk.

Jinju, let me go!

Hey, let go!

I was boasting so much that the first and second ranked students were both in my class.

This is so embarrassing. Come to your senses already.

Oh, what happened, Ji Ho?

Hey, you're the one who picked the fight, huh?

Look at this mess. Aigoo!

Can't you do better?

Hey, aiyoo.

Why were they only hitting me? Why only me?!?

So I don't study well. Does that mean I'm not human?

What's so great about you two?

You guys look like stuffed pancakes!

You ugly girls!

Ho Rang, don't cry.

What's with that?

You're great at the local dialect.

If you think it's so unfair, then do better studying.

If I could be good at studying just by wanting to do it,

then I would be already good at it!

What is she saying?

Stop acting like you're so great! It's obnoxious!

Yang Ho Rang, I heard you came to my house?

What is this pathetic thing?

Huh?

Thanks for the apples. (apple = sa-gwa, is an homonym for apology)

The ones I circled in red, solve those problems three times.

Those will be in the mid term exams.

By the way, stop using Seoul dialect in front of me.

It's obnoxious.

You're ridiculous, really.

And just like that, we became friends.

Look at this. I got a 70 on the math test.

How's that?

- Is that right? Your scores went up by a lot.
- You did well.

You only got three problems wrong.

♫ I smile quietly ♫

♫ So no one knows, no one at all ♫

Woo Soo and Ji Ho
♫ I draw so many stars ♫

♫ So no one knows, no one at all ♫

I will get you girls this time! How dare you?

- Oh, I got one. I hooked one!
- What is it?

- I got one!
- What is it?

Wow, it's huge! A Black Porgy!

Wow!

I'm going to be president of my own company.

You study so well, why would you become a merchant?

Become a professor, or go work at a huge conglomerate and become a career woman.

Hey, I could do that for 100 years, but I'd still be nothing but a wage-worker.

We only live once. Why spend it working under someone else?

I want plenty of money, to my heart's content.

Of course, with that personality, how could you work for anyone else?

I want to marry a self-made rich man and become a homemaker.

A self-made rich man?

Why? Why not just marry a rich man?

No way. If he inherits the wealth, I will have to be a slave to my in-laws. It's part of the price.

But if a man is a self-made success, then it all becomes ours.

Then among us, there will be a madam with a "-sa?"

Doctor or lawyer's wife? (eui-SA = doctor, byeon-ho-SA = lawyer)

These days, the trend is engineering. An engineering major turned venture capitalist.

That is the perfect self-made rich man I'm dreaming of.

What about you, Ji Ho?

It's obvious. Becoming a writer, right?

No.

Then, what is it?

It's true that I want to become a writer because I like to write, but

that isn't my dream.

My dream

- is love.
- Love?

What kind of dream is love?

Min Kook who lives next door to you, he likes you. Go date him.

No, he's ugly. Date Seung Won instead.

No, I don't mean that sort of thing.

That once-in-a-lifetime love.

Meeting a man who is my fate,

that is my dream.

I have someone I like.

What are you saying?

What? Who?

My husband.

Hey, are you joking around?

What's with you, Ji Ho? Are you rubbing it in?

Then, I'm going to confess my love for Won Seok here.

You guys... Just sleep!

♫ please be a shelter for my tired soul ♫

Actually what marriage really is,

I'm still not sure.

But liking someone...

♫ all you have to do is to give it a quick glance as you pass by ♫

♫ all you have to do is to give it a quick glance as you pass by ♫

♫ in the midst of the morning fog, it stopped ♫

Love, if you have just one in life,

it is plenty.

That one comment of his circled all around my heart.

♫ The little petal that is blossoming again ♫

♫ Shall we go looking for the morning sun? ♫

Even the back of his head

looks dashing to me.

Oh, you're up.

Yes.

Is Kitty better?

Yes. I think it's like the clinic said, just temporary.

What?

Is something on my face?

Yes. Handsomeness.

Is something on the window?

Maybe I need to do some cleaning.

♫ Even if you don't want love ♫

To be able to see the person you like every day.

Marriage is something

that is so nice.

♫ it makes me want to be in love ♫

So you guys were home.

Mother!

Episode 10
- Because It's My First Time In "Sea" (In-Law's) World

This is pickled deodeok roots, and this is braised mackerel.

He really loves braised fish.

I see.

What brings you here without even calling first.

It's my son's home. Why would I call first?

I came because I thought you guys would be home for sure since it's the weekend.

Let's put these in the fridge.

Oh, yes.

Let me do it.

It's alright. Like you know anything about kitchen stuff.

Homemaking is done by the experts.

Right, Ji Ho?

Yes.

- This.
- Yes, give to me, please.

You remember Vice Principal Hwang, right? He sent a box of apples.

I tried them with your father-in-law and they're so delicious.

Yes.

Does our daughter-in-law like apples too?

Yes, I like them.

Well, actually, I'm not picky about any food.

That's great.

Let me take it, plea--

Give to me. I'll do it.

I hear our Ji Ho works at a cafe?

Yes. I thought I should do some work.

In case it's hard for Oppa to have to do all the work?

Oh, you're so lovely.

Where did he find such a nice girl to bring home?

You know tomorrow's the memorial, right?

- If you get off work early--
- I don't get off early.

And did I ever go to the memorial before? Why suddenly--

Alright. I know you're busy.

I mean, if you have time, try to come, that's all I'm saying.

Let me have that.

Like you're really going to peel an apple.

This is also for people who have experience doing it.

Right?

Yes.

Please give it to me. I'll do it.

Will you?

Ji Ho, we're here already. When are you coming?

You said you had an appointment, right? With your friends.

Oh.

Yes.

Go on. Hurry before you're late.

Is that right? You should hurry and go.

Then.

I'll peel it, I suppose.

So so sorry.

- You're here.
- You waited a long time, huh?

Nope. It's fine.

My mother-in-law came over suddenly.

It's alright, I said.

Oh, why do I have this sudden headache?

Your head hurts? Suddenly, why?

What's the ring for?

Won Seok gave it to you?

Getting married?

Yes, Ji Ho! I'm getting married!

Ah! I'm getting married.

- What do we do?
- Ji Ho, I'm getting married.

You're not going to make a trip home?

We'll see.

Your father says he will pay off your mortgage.

No, thanks.

How long are you going to keep that up with your father?

You're married now too, and it's time you bury it and forget it.

Bury it and forget it?

About what? Bury what and forget what?

And what's this marriage got to do with Father?

Se Hee. Your father's very sorry too.

Your father's getting old too now.

Please go. I have things to do.

And please don't come like this again without calling first.

It's not proper courtesy to the person I live with.

And go home in a cab.

A person he lives with?

He's talking about his wife like she's some tenant.

So, I said, "Where the heck is dirt on my nails?"

I looked at my hand and instead of dirt, I see this! Ta-da!

Wow, I guess you grind Won Seok (raw stone) enough, you can turn it into a jewel too.

I guess you finally got rewarded for the work you put in for seven years, Yang Ho Rang.

Yeah, even seven years ago, Won Seok would buy her a flashlight if she said the road home was scary at night.

What did I say? I would make my Won Seok a 'Mark Jukebox.' (Mark Zuckerberg)

He's working at Brother-in-law's company now so all that's left is all the good things to come.

Hey, it's not Mark Jukebox. It's Mark--

But what do you mean your mother-in-law came suddenly? Why?

She came to drop off food.

To the newlywed's home on a weekend morning?

Huh? Yeah.

Hey, it's not like she pressed the security code and went, 'surprise,' right?

Can't be.

Ji Ho, now your life in the "sea" (in-law's) world is starting, too?

She just came to the home once.

Yeah, from the mother-in-law's perspective, it could be a given.

It's the home her son bought so of course she's got the right to come and go, too.

Hey! Why does she have any right to the home her son bought?

Once he's an adult and on his own, he's independent.

If there's any right to speak of, that should belong to the partner that the son himself chooses.

Yeah, that's right.

But that's true for 'Tom' or 'James,' Unni, and we're not in America.

To a Korean mother, a home paid for all with her son's money, would she think Ji Ho has any rights?

It's not like Ji Ho pays rent to live there.

Right? If the wife paid rent, then I guess she couldn't barge in.

Rent?

Hey, you are too much.

And that mother-in-law. She's not someone so scary.

She's nice to me too.

So I am nice to her too and I want to look favorable to her too.

We've got another newbie daughter-in-law about to get the disease here.

- What disease?
- 'Good daughter-in-law' disease.

Was it because of this?

Just trim like your usual style?

Yes.

But do I look strange somewhere?

Where?

Nope. You look the same.

This discount coupon. Can it still be used?

Yes.

'Good daughter-in-law' disease?

The disease that newbie daughter-in-laws tend to get easily after they are married.

The disease that gets them to overwork for the sake of looking like a good and well-mannered daughter-in-law.

But I get it.

A bride would want to look lovable to the husband and to his family.

Lots of people get that disease after they get married. That good daughter-in-law disease.

Do I have early onset 'good daughter-in-law' disease? How come I just can't say no to my in-laws?

That's not it.

Why can't she say no? I would just...

It's that man, who I can't say no to.

♫ So in love. I feel like I am not myself ♫

♫ When we are together ♫

You changed your hairstyle.

Oh, yes.

It was bothering me for this and that reason.

Does it look strange?

No, I like it.

Your hair.

I like your hairstyle.

Yes.

♫ I'm in love in love in love with you. Every day. ♫

Your mother left safely?

Yes.

I'm really sorry about my mother.

I already told her firmly, many times.

It's alright. It's just a parent coming to her child's home.

No. That's still not okay. Suddenly, like that.

I think it's best I change the security code.

You don't have to go that far.

If it's because of me, I'm okay.

I'm the one who's not okay.

Oh, okay.

It's complete.

Just know that I am taking it easy on you because your fake husband was dashing. To think I'd fall for those words!

You got yourself a good landlord, Noona.

What words?

I asked him when he came to settle the side mirror cost, why he married you.

And? What did he say?

What else? He said to get monthly rent.

And he said he respected you.

He said what?

He said he respected you as a defender.

I'm what...?

Respects me as a defender?

It gets deflected by the defense and the ball is kicked off.

That was a great chance for Arsenal.

Respect me as a defender?

What does that mean?

Is it a re-broadcast?

Yes. I think so.

It's on the left. Rose is going in. Koscielny on the low.

Arsenal deflects.

Arsenal's iron wall is Koscielny indeed, right?

Yes. He's an excellent defender.

Then, since it's the weekend, I'll make a trip to the market.

I'll come too.

I need to get some groceries too.

Yes. Sure.

I am curious about something.

I heard from Bok Nam

that you respected me as a defender, he said.

Oh. Yes.

He asked me why I married you.

What does that mean? May I ask you that?

Well, just as the words mean.

You were the first tenant I respected.

You never missed recycling day, even once.

And of course, you never missed giving Kitty food.

And more than anything, no matter the circumstance,

you are someone who knows how to play proper defense.

Shall I flip this over then?!

Oppa.

I love him.

So that was the meaning of me as a defender?

Since marriage isn't an issue for just two people.

It's a system where the surrounding interests are more important than the feelings of the two.

Even this morning, you defended my mother perfectly.

So we were able to get through it well, I think.

I am getting a lot of benefits, due to you.

I am grateful.

I need to go buy Kitty's snacks.

Yes. I need to buy rice.

Yes.

Ji Ho, do you know what Brother-in-law's nickname at work is?

Nope. What is it?

Mortgage-Left, Kitty-Right. Since Brother-in-law's left brain is filled only with the loan, and his right brain is filled only with his cat.

Really?

Hey, is this something to laugh about?

Then where are you?

I mean, if he's only got the loan on his left brain and the cat in his right brain, where in his brain are you?

Well I guess--

Oh. His heart?

Thank you.

I know that it cannot be.

That in that man's heart

I am not there. I know that.

Oh, I didn't enter my rewards card information.

Yes, I'll help you enter it.

I am just

a stable tenant that guarantees a monthly income.

I am just

an excellent defender who can maintain his anti-marriage.

In this man's heart,

what exists there?

Um. Se Hee.

Do you have a dream?

What?

I mean, like a goal in life?

Goal?

I...

I just want nothing to happen in my life.

What?

Nothing?

Yes.

I would like every day to be the same, just like this.

Go to work and pay back the loan.

Get off work and watch soccer while drinking beer and fall sleep.

That's your dream?

Yes.

Living like that and dying in my home is my goal.

Dream...

I suppose that is my dream.

A road into that man's heart.

Does it actually exist?

Why the tie, too? It's casual attire there. I don't need to dress like this.

Still. It's your first day at work so you should do this much. Don't you know the first impression is everything?

Now, it's done.

But you know, Sang Won quit being my facebook friend.

Oh, he did?

By chance, did the Wake Alarm app not end on good terms?

No, it was settled nicely.

Really?

Of course. Sang Won and the boys even told me congrats, for getting the job.

Really?

With our Seok dressed like this, he really looks like Mark Jukebox.

Rang.

Are you happy?

Yeah, very very happy.

That's all that matters then, if you're happy.

- I'm going to work.
- Bye. Have a good day at work.

I need you do that for me. The peck.

- Bye.
- Bye.

So I don't need to sell the company?

So we're dating now?

Sure, let's do it.

If you keep a few conditions.

Conditions?

Dating Contract

What is this?

Keep our relationship a secret.

This. Is this sane?

What is this, really?

What else? A contract

for our dating.

We're going to make a contract? On what?

Our dating?

Okay. I've got the diagnosis.

So my Soo Ji has watched too many dramas, that's why. What this contract dating is, you see,

this is something done by those next generation chaebeols with nothing else to do or those Hallyu stars.

Why would we do contract dating when we are just regular salary-earners?

It's because it's us. That's why we need a contract all the more.

People like us, who don't have a lot of time

from working so hard, shouldn't we use our time and energy resourcefully?

That's right, that is correct. However,

dating is not some kind of business to write a contract about.

So? You don't want to?

What? Who said I didn't want to?

Right, then look. First,

we only meet outside our homes, be it weekends or weekdays.
- I'm okay with that.

I also like going out. And in order to get some vitamin D, sunlight is the best thing.

Second, we should never ask about each other's personal lives.

Personal lives? How could we not ask?

Us dating is personal life in itself.

Well... Just because we are dating, sharing trivial information and being nosy,

I think it's a a form of violence.

Don't you think so?

Just... If you don't want to date me then say so!

Why do you keep on beating around the bush? Darn it. Aigoo.

No... I like you, CEO Ma. I want to date you.

That's why I'm talking about this.

My usual rule is to not sleep with guys I work with.

So to even consider dating you, it is a big deal for me.

Oh, is that so?

No. I understand now, about everything.

But considering this is between lovers, this contract lacks affection.

The last item, if we meet once...

we do it twice.

Hey, this is a contract overflowing with affection, after all.

Twice? Three times? Four times? I can do it. I can do it all.

And we should renegotiate the contract every 100 days.

- Why every 100 days?
- Why?

Is it hard?

Dating Contract

She's totally bad. She's a wild fox (vixen).

Right. If we came this far then that's it. Let's end it here.

Ma Sang Goo, your mother always warned you. You should never date a bad woman.

Before I sink lower than this, it ends here. Stop.

Can I kiss you?

What am I doing now? Is there a lag my right brain?

Erase it! Erase!

Erase. Delete. I should delete it.

And the last item, when we meet once, we do it twice.

Ma Sang Goo! Is your mind controlled by your body? What is wrong with you?

Get yourself together! She's bad! Ouch! I hit myself too hard!

- Hello.
These days, the world is a scary place. Get a grip.

No! But still no! You can't!

Oh, my goodness? Why...?

What's wrong with him?

I wouldn't know.

Coming to this company, are you sure you will be okay?

This can't be happening unless my brain has left my body! Get yourself together Ma Sang Goo!

You should listen to your mom! Oh, shut the... ugh!

This is the meeting room and that is the CEO's room.

And that is the employee's break area.

- Yes.
- And this...

is Won Seok-nim's work desk.

Yes.

Then, Hyungnim are you going to be my supervisor?

No. First, it's not hyungnim but Se Hee-nim.

Ahhh. Yes.

And your supervisor will be

that person.

First, your desk has been set-up with the basics.

But that thing is missing.

Perhaps, do you have a test earphone you have been using?

- Yes.
- Then do you have the mechanical keyboard too?

Yes. I also have one.

- Then what about a girlfriend?
- Pardon?

Yeah, I do have a girlfriend too.

Oh, so you have one. How long have you been using Slack?

Slack, I used that since it was launched. So for about four years?

Then how long have you been with your girlfriend?

I have been dating her for 7 years.

No, but why do you keep on asking those things?

It's necessary for our business, that's why.

If you have anything you are curious about then ask me right away. Then...

Delete. But wait.

Do I have indigestion?

So refreshing.

Won Seok, can you see me for a bit?

Yes.

Who was that? Woo Ji Soo? Oh Soo Soo? Who was it?

- Soo Ji?
- Ah, Soo Ji.

- So her name was Soo Ji. Did you say you were college friends?
- Yes.

The truth is, I met Rang because of Soo Ji and Ji Ho.

Rang came to our school more than her own school, to see them.

Ah, so that's how it was.

Was she popular back in school and such?

- Well, there were a lot of guys who made a move on her.
- Is that so?

What about you? Didn't you?

What? Me?

How can you put me with her? No way.

Why not? You are college friends

and you met her before your girlfriend. I saw her and she's kind of pretty and looks cool.

She is. But I can't tame a scary program like her.

She's not a source code that a dummy nerd like me can handle.

She's on a different level.

Then, what about me? Will I do? Will we match?

Hyung and Soo Ji?

It would be like being hit with ransomware (malicious software), shall I say?

Total "unrecoverable application error," and a feeling like your life will be ruined.

Thanks. Go ahead and work.

My life will be ruined?

Excuse me.

Yes, Ma'am.

This one. It's too bland. It doesn't taste like anything.

Can I give it a try?

I think it's okay.

I think you don't understand what I'm saying.

How am I supposed to eat this? I said it's not tasty to me.

Huh? So either make me a new one or give me a refund.

I can do that, Ma'am.

But I think you eat food that is too salty.

What? No, who do you think you are? Blabbering like that?

Manager Yang, what kind of attitude is that towards a customer?

- I'm sorry.
- You usually don't do this. What happened?

Is it that time of the month?

- Manager.
- What?

I really wanted to tell you this.

Why do you always ask if it's that time of the month and diss my innocent uterus whenever something goes wrong?

- What?
- Well,

I was the one who did wrong and not my uterus. And that goes for all the other girls, too.

Manager Yang, did you drink in broad daylight?

No. I didn't and my period has ended, too.

Break time is almost over so I will go and rest for a bit.

Aigoo.

Manager, why did you do that?

What if you get fired?

It's okay. I will quit before I get fired.

What? Are you perhaps going somewhere?

Yeah. I will go to a new place one of these days.

Really? Where?

- Hyeon-Mo-Yang-Chuh (good wife and wise mother).
- Hyeon-Mo-Yang-Chuh ?

Ahh, you are moving to some traditional Korean cuisine restaurant?

Rang, I'm here.

Oh my, you're here Honey? Give it to me.

Huh?

What was that? It's weird.

What's weird about it? We have to practice it now so that it won't be awkward when we're married.

What's all of this?

I took half a day off and went to the wedding fair.

Getting ready for the wedding, booking a venue, and wedding photoshoot, wedding dress and make up, there is so much to do.

Sit down, I'll explain everything. Come here.

We should register for wedding mileage.

Wedding mileage?

To pay for our wedding attire and gifts, we will spend a bundle, so we should sign up for that.

But we have to reserve the wedding hall before they will do it.

A wedding hall?

Then, we have to reserve a wedding hall quickly. Right?

Oh no, the good ones will be booked until next year.

Next year?

If not next year, then if we do it the year after that, it's nice to prepare everything early on.

Ho Rang, what do you mean the year after next year?

How could we get married two years from now?

Huh?

The door's open, come in.

What's this reaction?

Is it a rejection?

I bought this while coming here.

It's a bling-bling newest model.

Like you.

My phone's fine, though.

Use that for official matters.

Use this one only with me. Okay?

Okay, I got it. Let's date.

I'll listen to all three of your conditions!

Instead, you can't give this number to anyone else.

This phone is for contacting me only.

This is my condition.

As expected, you know how to negotiate.

Did you save your number already?

Oppa Sang Goo♡

This is you.

My baby♡

What's with that laugh?

Sang Goo Oppa,

why aren't you showering already, wasting time?

We have a lot to do.

You punk, I ought to punish you properly today.

As the adult, I will properly educate you! You just wait!

I'll shower and return in 10 minutes, no 5 minutes.

Yirgacheffe coffee, two cups.

Okay.

Unrequited love is tough, right?

What?

Unrequited love with your husband must not be easy, Noona.

What are you saying? Who said anything about unrequited love?

Is it obvious?

Of course it is.

Your gaze is different from your husband's.

What's mine like, and what's his like?

Your gaze says, "I'll do everything for you,"

and your husband's gaze says,

"Whatever."

Good impression of him, right?

Don't worry too much. You'll strain and wear yourself out.

A heart should be given and taken, not just given away.

Hello?

Oh, yes.

Yes, Mother-in-law.

Come in! You had a rough day, right?

No, I'm fine.

I thought that you coming here would be nice so I called you.

If both of you miss this, it's a bit sad.

This is your first ancestral rite after your wedding, after all.

Yeah.

What about Father-in-law?

He'll come soon.

Come in.

This way.

How do you cook all of this by yourself?

Oh, I'm an expert.

I've been the wife of the oldest son for 40 years.

Wow, you're amazing.

My daughter-in-law is so precious, how can I make her work?

Wow, this has always been a wish of mine,

matching clothes with my daughter.

- Daughter?
- Of course. My daughter-in-law is like my child. She's my daughter.

Having been around curt men until now, I love that you're here, Ji Ho.

What should I start with, Mother-in-law?

Oh, all of this.

Have you not left work yet?

I came to your family's ancestral rites.

Like last time.

Seriously. Oppa.

Come back next year for the ancestral rites.

Okay.

Ah, that brother of mine.

Should I give you more apples?

Yeah, the apples are really good.

Ah, yes.

Come here, Sang Mi.

She really grew, didn't she?

Aww.

Your hands are really skilled.

Sang Mi, watch Aunt carefully.

She graduated from Seoul National University.

You should grow up smart and skilled like her, okay?

Yes.

Ah, you speak well.

Now it finally feels like I'm at our family home. You always make me do all the work.

Oh Auntie, I never did that.

It's a joke, Unni.

If I had sons, I could have fun having a daughter-in-law, like this.

I'm so jealous.

Fun?

I was so jealous that you have a daughter, but not anymore.

I have a daughter-like daughter-in-law.

Your mother-in-law must really be happy to have you.

Of course. I got a daughter for free.

Dear, take care of this, too.

Yes.

Oh, right. You also have to wash the dishes used for the ancestral rites.

Where did they go? Let's go find them.

Se Hee, how did you get here?

Oh, Se Hee, I thought I wasn't going to see you today.

But how did you get a wife like that?

Really.

Let's do this.

Father, isn't the food offering more delicious today?

Your granddaughter-in-law is very good with her hands.

You should also bow.

You should leave now.

Be careful of the dishes, Sang Mi.

Get along well.

I'll take care of these.

Oh, you're just in the way. Stay out of here.

I will do this.

Yes, I know. Everyone knows you adore her.

I appreciate your willingness to help

but you're just making things complicated, Mister.

Yeah, if you do that for Ji Ho, she'll get embarrassed.

- What does that mean...?
- Please stay outside.

Eat well.

There you go.

The house loan,

did you pay it back?

I am paying it back.

I'll pay it back the rest for you as I promised.

Why would you pay back my loan?

I heard your wife has a part-time job.

That's not something your in-laws would like.

And I promised to buy you a home when you married.

A promise.

A promise is between two people.

A promise made by one party isn't a promise, it's a notification or a delusion.

A father wants to pay for his married son's house.

How is that a notification or a delusion?

Did we have a father-and-son relationship?

I thought we had a landlord-and-tenant relationship.

Twelve years ago, you said, "Get out my house."

"Don't step into my house again."

Whose fault was it that I had to buy a house?

That's because I'm a parent.

You should try becoming a parent. That time, as a parent, I had no other choice.

No. You weren't a parent at that time. You were a landlord.

You said, "my house."

Then, do you not have parents now?

Even as a parent, if you act like a landlord, you can only be treated as one.

Have this.

Oh, why'd you pack so much food?

It's just us two in my house.

Thank you for the food, I'll eat it well.

Why did you come today?

Why are you asking?

Mother-in-law called me, so I went.

You should've called me first.

I mean, you were too busy to come.

So, she was asking me, at least, to come.

How could I call you?

Then you should have made some excuse. Say you have work or something.

Why would a person who's good at defending...

The 'good daughter-in-law' disease.

I didn't think it would happen to me.
[Dear wives, when both you and your husband work, do you go to the in-laws family memorial ritual by yourself?]

I thought to myself, "I'm not going to be like this."

But, today,

why did I do that?

Do you know

the saying,

good daughter-in-law disease?

Pardon? What disease?

After marriage, girls

want to be nice and pleasant to their in-laws.

They want to become an obedient daughter-in-law, and they overdo it.

That's what they call it good daughter-in-law disease.

A type of need to be acknowledged, then.

Maslow's Heirarchy of Needs that I mentioned before.

If the low-ranking needs are fulfilled,

the next level needs will naturally appear.

Through marriage, your sense of belonging was fulfilled

so the next level of needing to be acknowledged has appeared.

It is a natural psychological phenomenon.

Especially, wanting to be acknowledged by others is

the most basic need of a human.

Is this the only way

you can interpret this?

Pardon?

That it's not about a hierarchy of human's animalistic needs,

it could be one's feelings.

Because it's the family of the person you like,

you feel like being good to them. To the person you like,

you want to make him comfortable and happy. That feeling.

Have you never thought about

how it could be due to such feelings?

I'll shower first today.

Wait...

Ji Ho.

Even though it wasn't in our contract,

the unfair labor you endured today, I hope that this takes care of it.

I'm sorry for making a tenant endure such an event.

I know that it cannot be.

Oh yes, she is so pretty to us.

Imagine how pretty she is to Se Hee.

She is such an amiable wife.

So true.

Unni, you must be really happy.

However my labor

didn't signify this.

My defense

was not for this.

♫ that is difficult for me ♫

It's me.

- Yes.
- The share of money you gave me,

how did you calculate it?

By any chance, is it not enough?

I calculated what you earn at the cafe, and added some overtime, too.

Yes. It is not enough. Not nearly enough.

Ah, I see. Then how much more...?

I don't need the money, but I want something else.

Something else?

You can pay me back by doing physical labor like I did.

What?

You can pay for it by doing physical labor at my family's home, just like I did.

This week, at my family's home,

we're doing gimjang (winter kimchi preparation).

In my life,

there is no more defense.

At least when it comes to my heart,

I'm protecting it through offense.

That left-brain-loan, right-brain-cat guy. Why would he have chosen such an illogical institution?

- She is pretty.
- Imagine that you can see that pretty girl every day.

- Then I will do it no matter what.
- You've caused trouble, huh?

But I won't fight now. If we fight...

Then there will be no going back.

Who did you say is coming?

Hey, it's cold. Close the window.

I'm starting gimjang now.

Wow. He is very weird.

That even in my heart, there is a space. I realized it due to this marriage.
