(Episode 13)

Hey, Susan.

Did you think about my idea to adopt?

You will?

I want to live happily with you, too.

Whenever I see you,

my heart aches because I'm reminded of...

the baby we lost.

But I don't think our baby will want us to live in sadness.

Oh, gosh...

Why did she abandon the baby and let it die?

My goodness...

Goodness. Now she knows her baby died before her.

How will she manage?

The poor thing.

Of all the things she had to take after me,

she ended up with the most rotten luck I struggled with my whole life.

Now she must live with the sorrow and guilt.

Oh, dear...

(Da Jung)

Your phone is ringing.

Is it Da Jung?

She doesn't know you had a baby, does she?

Don't say a word to her about it.

You haven't been through anything of the sort.

Do you understand?

You poor thing.

Se Ran, I had a baby girl.

She's healthy and has 10 fingers and 10 toes.

Song Yi, you're fast asleep.

We named her Baek Song Yi.

She got her pretty looks from me.

When will you return from the Philippines?

- I miss you. - "Song Yi?"

This is what my daughter looks like.

My baby girl, Song Yi.

Hang in there and wait.

Mommy...

will come for you soon.

Are you sure you're off to get divorced?

A stranger would think you're off to a party.

Hey. Are you commenting on our wardrobe choices now?

We dressed up in case a reporter caught on.

The gloomier we feel, the brighter we should dress to cheer up.

Ji Hoon.

I'm sorry I wasn't that nice to you while I was your mom.

I wasn't that great a son, so let's say we're even.

Live happily on your own.

Consider things over and done with my father.

You don't have to remind us of that.

Let's go, Noel.

Are you going out together?

- To split up again. - What?

I can't tell how long this split will last.

I hope you last at least a year.

That worthless punk.

Goodness.

I'm sorry you have to see us at our worst...

when you came home for your sabbatical.

Not at all.

Thanks to your advice, I reconciled with my wife Susan.

We'll try to work things out.

Then...

Yes. We're going to adopt.

I just looked up the process and paperwork.

Susan said she'd fly in for the interview.

Why adopt when you can reconcile and try to get pregnant?

Good for you.

Live happily.

Can I call if I'm ever in New York?

Yes. You're always welcome.

Bye, then.

We're running late. Let's go, Noel.

Yo Han.

Do you think the divorce is just for show?

They're acting too sweet for a couple about to split up.

They battled each other long enough.

If everything is out of their system, there will be nothing more to say.

I see.

I don't know because I was never married.

Are couples usually that calm when they divorce?

It'll be the calm after the storm.

But the storm will have left scars.

(Seoul Family Court)

Let's get something to eat before we part.

It'll be the last time.

We just got divorced.

You might be able to eat,

but I might feel ill, so eat on your own.

Does the divorce feel real now?

It does for me.

So it happened again.

Is it over for good?

You and I fought so much during our time together.

I'm grateful and sorry.

What does it mean to be married?

It's so easy to become strangers again.

Call me whenever life gets tough.

That will never happen.

Have a good life.

Our Song Yi's the prettiest, isn't she?

Yes. She looks angelic.

I can't believe she was inside of me.

You did great.

I was so worried something bad would happen to you.

I'll be a good husband and dad to you and Song Yi.

You're doing just fine already.

But you can take a vow in front of Song Yi.

Baek Sang Chul will, until the day he dies,

spoil and revere Jung Da Jung as the queen she is.

Good. Be sure to do just that forever.

I will.

Now we have to look after Song Yi for the rest of our lives.

Let's live and work hard.

You bet we will.

I'll protect our Song Yi until I die.

No, I will even in death.

You asked for an advance last month too.

Here. Spend it well.

Thank you, ma'am.

I'll make it up to you by working myself to the bones.

If you're left with nothing but bones, will I have to put you in an urn?

Well, anyway, thank you, ma'am.

I owe you and my life.

If you're going to use a fancy phrase, use it properly.

- What's this? - Can't you tell?

Go to the Philippines and study English as much as you want.

The cost of living is cheaper there.

This should last you some time.

Where did you get this from?

You always whined about never having money...

and were chased by creditors.

I didn't spend everything...

I borrowed from Da Jung to repay the loans,

and I got an advance from Bobaejung's Madam Yoon.

That should cover the plane ticket and maybe a little more.

You're on your own after that.

You borrowed from Da Jung again?

You have one good friend in her.

No one's like that these days.

You don't know what you're talking about.

- What? - Da Jung is...

No. If I tell Mom she's Shin Duk Soo's daughter,

she'll lose her mind...

and ruin my plans.

Da Jung is what?

Why did you stop mid-sentence?

It's nothing.

Okay. I'll pay Da Jung back one day.

Anyway,

you have a long life ahead of you.

You can't just sit here and grow old.

You must do something with your life.

Forget all that happened here...

and go and do what you want.

Don't think about the dead baby.

What?

The seaweed soup must've boiled dry.

Yes.

Even if I were to say I'm Song Yi's actual mom,

I could end up in prison for deserting a baby and killing it.

I need time.

(SW Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Gosh, she's such a sweet baby.

- Goodness. - Let's go home.

Thank you.

Shin Duk Soo.

You're all over my baby.

When you lose everything at the peak of your happiness,

it will hurt even more.

That will hit Da Jung even worse too.

Just wait.

Raise my daughter well...

and just wait.

Where's Ji Hoon?

He's still fast asleep.

And he wants to take over the company.

I'm sure he'll do well if you give him some responsibility.

When will Susan fly in?

It's the final interview before the adoption, right?

They approved our paperwork.

It's down to our character tests and interviews.

Promise to call me often.

I will.

Say that once more and it'll be the 100th time.

I'm not kidding.

Don't skip a meal because you're not hungry.

Eat three times a day on time.

Will you stop nagging?

You didn't tell Da Jung that I came back, did you?

I didn't. You told me not to.

Don't ever tell her. Keep our secret.

I will.

She has a great husband and is happy with their new baby.

That must be an eyesore.

And it'll hurt your ego.

I know that much, so I'll keep my mouth zipped.

Good.

I should go now.

See you.

Se Ran, look after yourself.

Bye. Go home.

See you.

Song Yi.

Until Mom comes back for you,

hang in there.

Dad, right now. Take the photo.

- Song Yi, smile. - Smile.

Sang Chul, move to the side. One, two, three.

- Dad, get over here. - Hurry.

- Ready? - Two, three.

- You cute thing. - My sweet grandchild.

Song Yi, it's Mommy.

Do you recognize me?

How long must I wait until you're old enough to say "Mom?"

Mom!

(3 years later)

Mom.

I want to wear this.

My princess wants to wear something so uncomfortable?

I want to dress like Elsa for childcare.

What if you catch a cold?

Do you want to wear this because it's from Aunt Se Ran?

Well...

Let's see.

I miss Aunt Se Ran.

How can you miss someone you never met?

I saw a photo of her.

She sends me lots of presents.

I like Aunt Se Ran.

I miss Aunt Se Ran too.

She returns tomorrow. Shall we welcome her?

Can we really? Yes, that's so exciting!

We're running late. Mom might be late. Let's go.

- See you later. - Bye.

- Grandpa. - My dear An Na.

Are you off to childcare?

- Yes, Grandpa. - Gosh.

It's not like the US. I wonder if she'll adjust.

Kids adapt in no time.

I wonder if you slept well with the jet lag and time difference.

I'm not sleepy at all.

Are you not?

Can we have a word?

An Na, the housekeeper will give you a snack. Wait a bit.

- Okay. - Good girl.

An Na, it's snack time.

Goodness.

You're worried about An Na, aren't you?

Yes. Did she sleep well without asking for her mom?

Susan and I had lived apart even before the divorce.

Though she never said a word,

I'm sure she knows her mom left.

Why did Susan divorce you when you even adopted An Na?

She said...

An Na reminded her of our dead child and made her feel worse.

Before we adopted,

she thought she'd feel better if she got attached to a kid.

But it didn't work out.

I feel sorry for her.

We're here.

Have a good day, An Na. Yes!

Dad, I'll try and eat kimchi today.

You will?

You don't have to eat it if you can't.

Will you pick me up later?

You bet I will. I won't go anywhere.

Don't worry and have fun with your friends.

I will.

(Comet Childcare)

- I hurt my back. - Sorry.

- Are you badly hurt? - Just a moment.

Wait. Ms. Sexual Harassment?

Not you again.

Goodness.

Watch where you're going, however rushed you are.

You practically crashed into me.

Gosh.

"Gosh?" You said "gosh?"

Don't you see I'm hurt? It's your fault too.

Quit making a huge deal of it and get up.

Do you want to grab my hand that badly?

What?

See? You weren't hurt at all.

I should report you for stalking.

I was so flustered that I forgot the pain for a second.

Did I fall on my own as I was walking along?

Or did I trip over a stone?

No, you fell because your eyes are on the back of your head.

Let your eyes do their duty by watching where you go.

It'll save you a lot of pain.

This is unbelievable.

You made me fall and hurt my back,

and you're saying it's none of your fault?

You're standing on your own just fine.

Oh, no.

Where did it go?

Shoot. It's in the drain.

What'll you do now?

You dropped it by mistake.

Why are you asking me?

It was a mistake?

I dropped it because you didn't look...

where you were going and walked into me.

What?

Do you know how precious that is?

It was handmade by a jeweler in San Francisco,

and only one exists in the whole world.

You can't buy it with any amount of money.

As if. You're trying to bleed me dry.

I'm what?

Do you think I have nothing better to do?

That mindset of yours is the reason you're a homewrecker.

You're going too far.

I made you drop a brooch, and now I'm a homewrecker?

My goodness.

What if I get that for you?

You'd better take back what you said.

Hey. You can't just walk off.

I'm off to get some tools.

(Bobaejung)

- Sorry. - You're late.

Are you late because you dropped Song Yi off at childcare?

Yo Han.

When did you get back?

How have you been?

I flew in with An Na two days ago.

Madam, you know this man?

You work here?

What are you doing? Go and get my brooch out of the drain.

Quit berating me.

I have my priorities.

Is there a long piece of wire?

What was all that about?

Do you know each other?

- No. - No.

Goodness.

Move it more to the right.

Like this?

No, not that side. This side.

Closer to the inside.

The inside corner.

What are you doing?

What do you mean?

- Darn it. - What the heck?

- I got it. - Let's see.

Oh, no.

What happened?

You dropped it down into a deeper hole!

What now? I'm sorry.

Is that it?

Do you know how much it cost?

Forget the price. I can't get that made again!

I said I was sorry.

You should've fished it out yourself.

You told me to do it.

This is unbelievable.

I brought that to give Madam Yoon.

Now I can't even get it back!

I'm trying to apologize, aren't I?

I'll pay you back for it, then.

You'll pay me for it?

How much do you think it is?

I'd say 50 dollars at most.

Fine, I'll be generous. It cost 100 dollars.

The jeweler charged me 10,000 dollars for it.

What? 10,000 dollars?

Now I can't get it made even for 10,000 dollars!

No way.

You're trying to rip me off because you can't get it back.

Mister. Don't be like that.

You should be nice, okay?

What do you know about being nice?

You should be remorseful instead of making others cry.

Quit trying to steal a married man.

You cheating mistress.

What did he say? I stole a married man?

I'll steal you?

You're not my type, so quit dreaming.

Years have passed, and he still thinks he's a catch.

My goodness.

Hello, Blessing.

Did you miss our Blessing?

You cheater and homewrecker.

She steals someone's husband, has his kid,

and acts like she's righteous.

(Bobaejung)

So you decided to part ways...

with your wife for good?

Yes.

She said she just couldn't raise An Na.

What a pity.

Whenever she sees An Na,

she thinks of the baby she lost,

and it hurts her too much.

She moved out multiple times, asking me for a divorce,

so we decided to wish each other the best.

She couldn't shake off...

the pain of losing a child.

It's possible that...

you and she were never meant to be.

What brooch costs 10,000 dollars?

That Yo Han guy...

seems to be very close with Madam Yoon.

Goodness. Someone like that cons other people?

I don't think he has the face of a guy who would con others.

They say that most con artists look normal, handsome even.

They don't go around with a sign that says they con others.

He doesn't seem like the bad sort.

He looks rich.

Think about it.

Would you believe a brooch costs 10,000 dollars?

Ten grand is nothing if it was studded with diamonds.

It could even cost ten times that.

He tried to make me pay extra...

because he knew he couldn't get it back.

Hi, darling.

You're flying in tomorrow?

Yes, she's right next to me.

- It's Se Ran. - Okay.

Hi, Se Ran.

Tomorrow?

Sure. It's my day off, so I'll bring Song Yi too.

Okay, see you tomorrow.

She can't wait to see Song Yi and wants me to meet her.

Does she?

Song Yi loves her Aunt Se Ran,

and Se Ran adores Song Yi.

She does.

Mom, lie to Da Jung and say our water pipes burst.

Don't ask me why.

I'm sorry to say this, Da Jung.

Se Ran is flying in tomorrow,

and our water pipes burst and need repairing.

The landlady wants us out for a few days.

Do you think we should stay at a hotel?

The pipes burst?

I can stay in the back room here...

since it's just a few days, but...

Se Ran can stay with us, then.

It's just for a few days.

I'll ask my mother-in-law.

Okay.

- Look. - It's fine.

I can't wait to see Aunt Se Ran.

Se Ran!

It's Aunt Se Ran.

Let's meet up then.

See you.

- Bye. - Bye.

Call me.

Se Ran.

You look incredible, Se Ran.

Song Yi, you wanted to see Aunt Se Ran. Say hi.

Nice to meet you, Aunt Se Ran.

You're Song Yi.

You're much prettier in real life.

Are you shy?

Thanks to all your gifts, she's a huge fan of yours.

Don't, Mom.

What?

"Mom?"

Song Yi, your mom is right here.

Da Jung's not your mom. I am.

(The Third Marriage)

You shouldn't let another woman stay with your family.

You shouldn't trust your friends too much.

Is there anything left between us?

Your happiness is coming to an end.

I know of a reasonable way, so wait until then.

How are Aunt Se Ran and Song Yi so alike?

One would even think they're mother and daughter.
