EPISODE 11

Soo-yeon.

Soo-yeon, that's not what I...

I know.

I understand.

I was the one

who posted that question.

What?

Can you get over the fact

that your wife was once with another man?

Yes, I can get over it.

I can forgive her. Actually, I've already forgiven her.

It's just...

I'm just...

feeling a bit flustered now.

I can forget about it.

Well,

it might be difficult now,

but I really can if I try...

I'm sure we can go back to...

how we used to be.

Look at this, Soo-yeon.

Should we go on a trip?

We took this picture when we went on that trip, right?

How about Japan? No, how about Europe?

You said you wanted to go to Prague again, right?

Jun-soo will like it, too. Don't you think so?

I realized it today.

You and I...

We can't go back to the way we used to be.

We won't be able to, no matter how hard we try.

I don't want to make things harder for you.

The more you try...

to forgive and forget...

How would you know if we haven't even tried yet?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you.

I'm very...

sorry.

What about Jun-soo?

We need to think about Jun-soo.

He's only seven years old.

If he finds out about this,

he'll be shocked.

Then...

how about we live apart?

Let's live apart

just for a while.

Then, give me some time.

I'm sure I'll be able to...

I was sure I got over it.

I've already forgiven you! Damn it!

Gosh...

Hyun-woo.

We should...

Right. I have to go to the shooting early today.

I need to go to work now.

Please look after Jun-soo today.

I'll see you later.

You're early today.

-Yes. -Good morning.

-Hello. -Hello.

Once everyone's here, tell them to come to the meeting room.

So, everybody should look for stories

that would fit this week's theme.

Let's meet around three again.

-Okay? -Got it.

Bo-young.

When will the plan for the new show be ready?

Bo-young?

The plan for the new show.

I'm still...

I'm sorry. I'll show it to you today.

Okay.

Fine.

Okay then.

-Ji-hoon. -Yes?

Let's go to the editing room. There's something that bothers me.

-Let's go. -Okay.

What's wrong? Are you okay?

You have never missed a deadline.

During those eight years of working together,

you've never done this.

I'm okay.

Okay.

Gosh.

It's good to have him back, right?

Yes.

He couldn't focus on his job.

But he's working hard today.

Maybe it was meant to be.

They got a chance to reconcile after that incident.

It was a crucial moment.

I wonder if they're okay now,

or trying too hard to make it seem like they're okay?

What do you mean?

Shit...

What should I do with the building?

Should I move?

Should I just beg for forgiveness?

I can't tell what's best for me now.

Honey.

It seems that you haven't heard the news yet.

What news?

I'm going to sell this place.

Why my office?

It's no longer yours.

You should take things you need by today.

The new tenant is moving in soon.

Honey...

I hope you leave your car keys, too.

You're an expert, right?

Let's separate like experts.

Okay.

By the way...

You bought this phone here.

Is there something wrong?

I'm not capable of paying for the phone.

I feel too attached to it.

It shouldn't be that way.

I'm sorry.

Your refund period is over.

And you signed a three-year-contract.

I'm sorry!

Gosh!

HIRING ANYONE CAN APPLY

Hyun-woo.

Hello, Ah-ra.

Are you here to see Yoon-ki?

You already knew about everything?

I don't know what to say.

You don't need to cheer me up.

I don't feel like being consoled.

It's rude to ask this, but... What made you decide to get a divorce?

You've endured it all this time despite knowing the truth.

But why now?

I felt like I was becoming a monster.

What?

All this time, I've been lying to myself

and to him.

When I smelled other women's perfume on his shirt,

I just thought that maybe a female client visited his office.

When I saw friendly messages on his phone,

I pretended they were from a friend that I didn't know about.

I closed my eyes and lied to myself.

I did it because I love him

and couldn't live without him.

I tried to become a better woman.

Since cooking was the best thing I could do,

I made more delicious food

to make him happy.

I wanted to make me happy too.

But no matter how much I pretended,

I couldn't hide my feelings.

Even while I was chopping vegetables for him,

slicing meat, and making soup...

I could think of him hugging another woman,

undressing another woman,

kissing another woman...

Whenever I think about it time to time...

I madly cursed him.

I loved him, and I wanted to be loved by him,

I said things that I shouldn't say out loud.

When I see him eating my food so happily,

I thought I was happy too.

But I also wanted him to be dead.

He's the one who did something wrong.

But it was me who kept being obsessive and doubting.

Cursing someone I love so much

was driving me to become a monster.

I couldn't stand...

what I was becoming.

Don't blame yourself.

I don't and I don't regret it

because I don't love him anymore.

You should go back to work.

I took up too much of your time.

No, you didn't.

Stay well, Hyun-woo.

We might not see each other again.

Yes, you're right.

By the way, I'm sorry about what I said.

What?

When I said that there might be your fault too.

No matter what you do,

it can't justify someone else's affair.

I've realized that it's a different issue.

What...

do you mean?

But I still believe

that love can be a weapon.

Because I loved him much more than he loved me,

I was able to end it smoothly.

I told you.

You might forgive her, but you won't be able to forget.

You're already stuck in a swamp.

No matter how much you try to forget everything,

you're only going deeper into the swamp.

Just accept the reality, Toycrane.

Is Mr. Do not eating lunch?

No. He has a guest.

He's having lunch with his guest?

Maybe I should buy him a sandwich.

My friend, who just got married half a year ago,

is getting a divorce.

Why?

She said it was his personality,

but I'm sure she was aware of his personality.

I think she's lying.

There are so many reasons to divorce that we don't know.

According to my data,

the first reason of divorce is incompatibility, then finance issues,

and spouses' affair follows next.

And the unofficial reason of divorce is about sex.

Maybe that's why my friend is getting a divorce.

What kind of sexual problem?

You're right.

-You can drink mine. -What kind of problem could it be?

In my opinion,

the man's...

Am I wrong?

Jun-young, stop being like that in front of others.

What do you mean?

I told you that I don't want to date you.

I can't even be nice to you? Who said anything about dating?

I don't want the others to see that.

It makes me uncomfortable, so please stop.

It means that it has been bothering you for a while, right?

I have always been nice to you.

Why does it suddenly bother you?

Admit it.

If it's starting to bother you, it means that you like me.

No, so please stop.

Tell me,

did your heart flutter when I was being nice to you?

Wait.

Can you get over the fact

that your wife was once with another man?

I told you.

You might be able to forgive her, but you won't be able to forget about it.

Just accept the reality.

I thought I could.

I was certain that I could.

But...

I don't think I can ever forget what happened.

DIVORCE AGREEMENT

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

It's me who should be sorry.

Damn it.

DIVORCE AGREEMENT

"Place of registration"?

What does that mean?

My legal residence. I see.

A copy of my marriage certificate,

and family certificate.

A copy of her certificate, and her family certificate.

In case of having an underage child,

a copy of agreement of custody and parental rights is needed.

Two or three copies of the family court's decision,

a copy of resident registration number...

They want so many documents. This is driving me nuts.

COURT OF KOREA

Okay. So, I can get those papers online, right?

INSTALL

WOULD YOU LIKE TO INSTALL?

INSTALLING

WOULD YOU LIKE TO ALLOW THIS PLUG-IN?

YES

INSTALLATION COMPLETED

INSTALLING

What?

I've already installed that.

INSTALLING

INSTALLATION COMPLETED

REGISTERING

WOULD YOU LIKE TO ALLOW THIS PLUG-IN?

Jeez, how many am I supposed to install?

Getting a divorce is very complicated.

Some give up during the process

because it is too complicated and requires too many documents.

You're right.

There are a lot of papers to submit.

Filling out those papers is a real pain.

It's not surprising that there's a job called a divorce planner.

A divorce planner?

DIVORCE CONSULTATION CENTER

It's a person who can help you with your divorce process.

It's your first time divorcing, just like having a wedding.

CUSTODY AND PARENTAL RIGHTS AGREEMENT

You both have jobs, and your son is seven years old.

Who is going to raise the kid?

I think his mother should.

That's what I want, too.

Most mothers do.

MOTHER

And the parental rights...

Usually, the parent who has custody gets the rights, too.

-Parental rights, too? -Yes.

You can opt for joint parental rights.

In that case, when the child starts school,

or when he needs surgery,

or even when he opens a bank account,

he'll need both of your signatures.

So, you're saying...

It's better if my kid's mother takes the parental rights, right?

That's right.

We'll do that, then.

Most people don't agree so easily on the parental rights.

You sound determined.

MOTHER

This is the child support guideline suggested by the court.

Considering the sum of your incomes

and your kid's age,

the average child support costs 1.4 million won.

Considering your husband's income given...

it will cost 740,000 won.

You will have to pay 740,000 won.

Okay.

I'm sorry?

I will pay that amount.

I see...

Very well, then.

FATHER

You are aware, right?

Once the papers are submitted, you can't change the expenses.

I'm aware.

CHILD SUPPORT 740,000 WON A MONTH.

Visitation rights.

It's literally about when your husband can visit your child.

When do you think it's the best?

You should rest on weekends.

I can take care of Jun-soo on weekends.

Are you sure?

You won't be able to rest on weekends.

It's okay.

You'll be having a harder time than me anyway.

I'll visit him on weekends.

And I'll leave the house.

You should live there with Jun-soo.

No. You don't have to leave.

I'll leave with Jun-soo.

No, he has preschool and schools to go.

Just stay there.

Let me do this, please.

Okay.

Then, let me find a place for you and Jun-soo.

Don't say anymore.

Is that it?

Yes.

We're done, but...

Are you sure about this?

I'm sorry?

It's nothing.

The court looks like a district office.

Let's go.

SEOUL FAMILY COURT

What do you mean you don't want a divorce?

I've changed my mind.

Divorce? I'll never do that.

I won't.

Shit. It stinks.

Then you do it.

-Do it somewhere else! -Be quiet.

What are you doing in public?

That's enough.

Should you be talking back to your husband like that?

Gosh.

Did you fill out the form?

Here it is.

Excuse me.

Can I help you?

Yes.

Are you here to submit divorce papers?

Yes.

You can give it to me.

-Can I see your ID, please? -It's inside.

It's done.

Is that it?

You must take a course

and submit it during the waiting period.

Here.

Thank you.

SEOUL FAMILY COURT DIVORCE OFFICE

We have to take this course too.

PARENTING COURSE

It starts from four.

Should we take it today?

We should, right?

Yes.

EDUCATION CENTER

PARENTING COURSE

Mom, dad. Please don't get a divorce!

Preschool kids

blame themselves and feel guilty

about their parents' divorce.

At the same time, they start feeling afraid

that they might be abandoned one day.

Hello.

-Welcome. -Please sit.

Please sit.

Enjoy your lunch. I'll leave the interior work to you.

Don't worry.

-By the way. -Yes?

I heard that you own this building.

Yes, I do.

You look too young to own such a big building.

Lucky you.

Gosh.

You have a beautiful wife too.

Yes.

Can I get you something?

I would like a bottle of Chateau Cos d'Estournel.

I need two glasses.

Yes, Ma'am. Anything else?

Please call the owner of the restaurant.

-We should decorate this wall, -Yes.

and place a partition

to make it into a foot massage room.

If you put a partition,

it might look too crowded.

We should remove the wall.

I would like that.

Then let's do that.

You're the best.

I like this.

I'm not sure what you have in mind,

but this might change your mind a bit.

What's this?

If I want to expand my store,

I would need to get more assets from my husband.

You're so greedy.

What do you think?

Are you willing to fight back now?

Where are you going?

What?

Just outside.

Where?

After what happened to Toycrane,

I thought of a good business idea.

What idea?

When you use the internet, you leave records.

And because of that, it causes a lot of problems.

It might be a good idea to start a business

that removes those records.

Wait.

Wear this instead. The other one looks terrible.

It's very old.

I wonder how Toycrane is doing. I hope he's okay.

I'm sure he made up with her.

Please tell us how you are.

I'm sure they got stronger after that hardship.

I hope our efforts

-didn't go to waste. -I feel good nowadays.

I think that blocking the ID from being revealed was

-the best thing I did. -I'm putting together

a group in support of Toycrane.

Let's meet on a beautiful day.

So it ended up like this.

I feel so empty.

I felt overwhelmed during the divorce process.

Now that things are set, I feel empty.

I wonder what was the point of working so hard all this time.

It feels like my life is over now.

Of course, divorce makes people

feel very empty.

How is Jun-soo?

We haven't told him yet.

Doesn't a divorce planner do that?

They should tell the families about the divorce too.

Right. It's a pain in the butt.

When to whom, and how to let people know.

Don't stall. Just get it over with it soon.

The more you stall,

the harder it is to share the news.

I should go.

Where? Let's have dinner together.

Eat without me. My mother is coming home.

-See you. -Bye.

Bye.

By the way.

We eat, play games, and drink together

every time we have free time.

Isn't this dating?

Okay, I'm sorry!

I'll shut up. Keep eating.

I can't say anything. Gosh!

I like you.

How can you say something like that while I'm eating kimchi?

But I don't want to date you.

Then what?

Do you want to marry me?

Are you crazy?

I like you, but...

It's hard for me to be in a relationship with someone.

I've also had a failed marriage.

-I know it's tough, but... -It's not because I got divorced.

Then why?

I told you.

I'm not good at being in a relationship.

I'm not good at responding to feelings.

I'm not good at expressing them, either.

And...

it's tiring.

Getting emotional is exhausting.

I don't want to do that anymore.

Even with me?

Talking and eating with me...

Is this tiring?

While I was pretending to be married,

I thought I should never fall in love again.

As you said,

it felt very tiresome.

But it's different with you, Bo-young.

I got hurt. I shut myself down.

But it gets better.

I remembered how good it feels

to love someone.

I want to help you feel the same way.

No, please don't do that.

I think there is...

already something going on between us.

You can't say there's nothing.

Go out with me, Bo-young.

Don't say that while you're eating kimchi. It's annoying.

Why?

You don't want to say yes because I'm eating kimchi?

Fine, then...

Go out with me.

I said it.

I don't want to.

You're saying that because of kimchi, right?

You're acting that way because of that kimchi!

Here's your favorite.

It's chocolate cake!

You should thank her first, Jun-soo!

Thank you, Grandma!

I didn't know what to buy for him.

So, I got him his favorite cake from the bakery nearby.

Did you have fun at a hot spring?

It was the first time I went there. It was very nice.

You guys should also...

go together.

Mom. We have something to tell you.

Mom.

We...

You haven't seen this picture, right?

I took this at the arboretum.

Mom.

It was amazing.

If you go a bit higher, the sky just opens up.

Mom.

We...

We've agreed to get a divorce.

I'm sorry, Mother.

You can't.

I won't allow it.

Says who? What's the reason?

Hyun-woo won't forgive you?

Is that it?

Hyun-woo. How could you?

That's not the reason, Mother.

Then why?

He said he would forgive you.

He said he would forget everything.

Soo-yeon...

I was understanding of you.

Do you have to be that selfish?

What about Jun-soo?

What about him?

What did he do wrong?

You need to change your mind for Jun-soo's sake.

Please.

It's already over.

You can't!

I'll never accept that.

I'm sorry, Dad.

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

I'm the one who should be sorry.

No, Father.

It was mostly my fault.

I couldn't...

I couldn't make her happy.

I promised...

to make her happy, but...

I couldn't keep that promise.

I'm very sorry.

I'm going bike riding with Dad.

Okay, be careful.

-Have fun. -Okay.

Jun-soo.

I have something to tell you.

Mom and I...

We've decided...

to live...

apart.

Why?

Because we'll all be happier that way.

You're going to...

live with your mom now.

But you can come visit me anytime you want.

I'll always be your dad no matter what.

Got it?

What did I always tell you?

When I'm not around...

I need to take care of Mom.

Mom and I will...

live apart now.

Jun-soo.

You must take care of mom for me.

Got it?

Your mom is always overworking herself.

Don't cry.

You shouldn't cry.

You go to elementary school soon.

Right?

You'll be fine.

Take care of mom.

Jun-soo.

Thank you.

Thank you.

For these reasons, we think

that the amount of alimony is fair.

That's it.

Does the defendant have something to say?

Yes. We do.

It should be fine.

We can get more money.

We have evidence that the plaintiff had no intention of keeping her marriage.

Such claims are usually bluffs.

Please take a look at the pictures.

What are these photos?

They are the evidence that proves that the plaintiff wanted

to break up her family.

As you can see,

she has been in a relationship with her lawyer, Mr. Choi,

for months before her divorce.

You can see that in those pictures.

Your Honor, we have other pictures as well.

-What should we do? -Based on the evidence,

-Say something. -the plaintiff had

no intention of continuing her marriage.

And her contribution to the property

-is very low. -Yoon-ki.

The boiler works well?

The house is not facing south.

It's facing east.

It's too close to the next building.

They might be able to see inside.

And the walls...

Are you sure it's not moldy inside the walls?

I'm sorry?

Isn't this a cockroach?

Why is there a cockroach here? They're impossible to get rid of!

My son's mother...

There's a camera here, here, and there, right?

Yes.

There shouldn't be any blind spots, right?

You have a sharp eye.

How many people are moving in?

Three people including a kid?

No, two. My son and his mom.

I see.

Here. Cheer up.

Don't worry.

I'm very disappointed. It was my money.

I'll get you anything you want.

So, don't worry about it.

Really?

Of course. Did you forget already?

I have a building.

Thank you, Yoon-ki. These shoes are so cute.

Aren't they? But should I really buy you this pair?

What if you run away in these shoes?

You can buy me another pair, so I'll go back to you.

That's a good idea.

Choose another one.

The ones you'll come back to me with.

Mr. Choi?

Are you home, Mr. Choi?

Who are you?

You're Mr. Yoon-ki Choi, right?

-Yes, that's me. -Please accept this.

Please sign here.

What's this?

I'm not sure.

I think it's from the court.

Why...

Why would I transfer my building and my land to you?

It's not your land.

It's mine.

It says on the land registry issued during the Japanese colonial era

and property tax record.

Are we making this stuff up?

Did you see the land registry certificate?

You can clearly see my name, Yoon-ki Choi.

It's my building and land for sure.

Japanese colonial era?

Why are you talking about such ancient times?

Even if you can't accept it, there's nothing you can do.

We can take this to the court.

What are you talking about?

You must demolish the building you built without my permission.

Get out of my land.

How can I remove such a big building?

And all the tenants have moved in.

Demolish it?

You want to demolish our building?

That's not our business.

You have been using our land without our consent.

We'll lodge a compensation claim too.

What are you talking about?

Are they going to take our building away?

Be quiet, please.

BAR

Bo-young! What a surprise!

This place makes good appetizers.

I come here often by myself.

Did I ask you?

You were waiting for me, right? Please stop doing that.

Who's waiting for you? I came here to drink alone,

and happened to bump into you.

Your nose is frozen.

You should have at least waited inside.

You're such a fool.

It seems you're not feeling well.

You haven't been drinking lately.

-Let's go. -Where?

I'm a bit hungry too.

You should warm your body too.

Do you think I'll... Okay, let's go.

Here.

Here...

Where were you? I thought you were home.

You were just waiting for me without knowing if I was home or not?

Yes.

I thought that you might not want me to ring your doorbell.

In that case, I was hoping to run into you. If not, too bad.

It was as simple as that.

I was just walking around the neighborhood.

Exercising? You're on a diet, right?

Looking back, I noticed that you haven't been eating enough.

I...

Jun-young...

Is it yes?

You couldn't say it because you're shy, right?

If you want to date, eat these noodles.

If not, drink water.

What then?

Why are you mumbling like that?

If you don't want to date me, there's no need to say anything.

Don't tell me not to wait for you either.

-It's not like I'm bothering you... -I'm pregnant.

Pregnant...

-You? -You heard me.

Don't make me say it again.

I can't believe this.

Who's the father?

Me? I'm the father?

Me?

-I don't remember doing anything... -The day we went to eat grilled clams.

Cheers!

-Here. -Here please!

Let's drink more at my place.

Why did you come to my house?

-To drink some more -To drink some more

-To drink some more -More

Oh...

I've been thinking about it.

I've decided to keep it. That's why I'm telling you.

Wait. Hold on...

I need time to think.

I know.

I was like that for the past few weeks.

Okay.

There's nothing else to think about.

Let's get married.

You don't need to feel responsible for the baby.

That's why I didn't want to tell you.

Whether you have a baby or not,

I want to be with you.

Honestly, I don't feel much for the baby

that you told me about just now.

I still can't believe it, but...

If you decided to keep it...

I want to be there for you two.

I don't want to get married.

Why not?

I can't. A baby is a baby.

Marriage is marriage.

What kind of nonsense is that?

It's normal to get married in this kind of situation!

Let's get married.

I don't want to.

What are you talking about? Why can't you get married?

I won't take no for an answer.

I'm marrying you no matter what.

And the books? Did you pack them?

Not yet.

I'll pack your books, then.

Okay. Thank you.

Wait. You shouldn't pack them like this. They'll break.

I'll leave this here.

What's this?

I'm sure you'll see Jun-soo often, but still...

His baby tooth come out. My cute baby boy. I love you, Jun-soo.

This...

-Keep it. -You keep it.

It has your birth date on it.

Will you be okay on your own?

Yes.

The guys from the moving company will do most of it anyway.

But still...

I'll be fine. You can go. It's getting late.

Okay. I'm going now.

We're done. You can leave now.

Thank you.

You'll grow up to this height. Okay?

Honey.

Is it ready yet?

It's almost ready. Wait a bit longer.

I'm so hungry.

Just a moment, Hyun-woo.

I'm so hungry!

The food is almost ready. Just a bit longer.

It looks good!

This is it, right?

Yes.

For three hours, you...

It must be very good, then. Right?

Thank you for the food!

I think I'm pregnant.

What?

What?

I think I'm pregnant.

Yes!

Are you okay?

Wait.

Goodness.

Are you ready?

Lighting is good.

It's been awhile. This is Toycrane.

We're about to record. Camera two, stand by.

Ready?

-Cue, -Currently,

I'm in the process of divorcing my wife.

However, I'm fine.

Again. Cut.

It's the only solution we could think of in the end.

Cut.

On that note, I want to thank all of you.

If you hadn't been there during that tough period,

I would still be angry at my wife,

not reflecting myself.

This will be my last post.

Thank you for everything.

I have never met you in person,

but I truly hope you're all happy.

Goodbye.

It's so nice outside.

It's been a while. This is Toycrane.

Don't make me worry about you. Just come in!

You've aged enough.

I guess you're still young to have something to be afraid of.

Is it okay...

if I sleep here tonight?

We're not on good terms,

so sleep over there.

Okay.

I...

I have a question.

Can I ask you?

What is it?

You could have...

kicked me out after he died. But why did you let me stay?

So I can get my revenge on you.

All the pain I got,

I'll pay you back until the day you die.

Then you should live long.

Because I'm going to live long.

Shut up. Go to bed.

She fell asleep quickly.

Toycrane, now that I'm old,

I've come to realize this.

Good times hurt since they're irretrievable.

Bad times hurt

since they are unforgettable.

However, this moment right now,

we might end up longing for this moment tomorrow.

That's why I try to live every day with a smile on my face.

Gosh. I'm so hungry.

Eat the vegetables first before they go bad.

And if you're not going to have the marinated meat soon,

put it in the freezer.

I divided the rice and soup into one serving each and froze them.

Take it out 30 minutes before eating,

and microwave it.

Should I have a luxurious meal for a change?

Should I change my wallpaper?

That rice cooker is too big for me.

I should give it to her.

Why is it taking so long to cook?

I forgot kimchi.
