We're already here.

Why do you live so close? You should live farther away.

I'll go inside now. See you tomorrow.

We'll obviously see each other tomorrow.

I'm going to call you when I get home later.

Oh, sweetie.

You promised you'd stop staying at the hotel...

and to go home, right?

Okay. I'll go home.

One second.

Hey, Ji Seok. Where are you?

Seok Hyun's house?

It's late, so come home in an hour.

Bye.

- I'll go inside now. - Okay.

What's this?

I'm coming in.

What's wrong with you? Where do you think you're going?

But...

Gosh.

Gosh, it's nice and comfortable.

What is this? Why are you coming in here?

I heard Ji Seok was coming home in an hour.

- So? - So, I'm going to leave in an hour.

Is this your house?

Can I only come in if it's my house?

Aren't you being too calculating between lovers?

It's not that. Ji Seok could come home earlier too.

Hey, I suddenly feel like I have the chills.

- What? - If you just give me...

a glass of hot chocolate,

I'll drink it quickly and leave.

Please?

Come on.

What are you doing?

Sweetie.

Do you want to play hot chocolate?

Is there a game like that?

I just said whatever.

What?

- No. - What?

Seriously, what if Ji Seok comes home?

No, don't drink hot chocolate. Just go.

Get your coat, okay?

You're really too mean.

I'm doing this because I feel sad to leave you.

I feel sad too.

But I live in this house with a minor.

That's why I said we should spend tonight at the hotel together...

What are you saying? Seriously.

I want to get married soon and be together.

Why aren't you answering me?

What answer?

You don't even wear the ring I gave you.

You didn't even answer me for my proposal.

Well...

"Okay, let's get married."

Can't you give me a clear answer like that?

Do I have to say that...

Okay.

You say you can't do it. I can't keep wishing for it.

Then, I'll take my lonesome heart and leave now.

- Bye. - Bye.

How can I say that?

(Cinderella at 2AM)

Why? What now?

Why do you keep looking at me and not saying anything?

What is it?

Well...

I feel grateful for Ju Won since he waited for me,

and I couldn't answer him properly to his proposal either.

So, I want to do some kind of event for him.

But I've never done anything like this before.

So? Have you thought of anything?

I looked a few up. Want to hear what sounds better?

Let me hear it.

The door opens

You come in

At first glance

I knew that you were mine

You came before me

Your face as you leaned down

It's so blindingly beautiful

- I will say it carefully - I will say it carefully

- I will find my courage - I will find my courage

Don't find your courage for this. Pass.

Is this the 90s?

What? Why not just write a letter on a sketchbook too?

(Will you marry me?)

What's this, Uncle? How long have you been listening?

Since you started singing that cheesy song.

- Bad idea? - Yes.

It's cheesy and corny.

You're the manager of the marketing team at a large company.

I can't believe that you came up with that kind of event!

So cheesy.

Tell me honestly.

You didn't resign, did you?

You got fired, didn't you?

What are you saying? It's because work and love are separate things.

I'm leaving.

Oh, right. Ji Seok called the restaurant earlier.

Ji Seok? Why?

He said he had been interested in cooking.

He wants to start cooking.

He asked me if he should go to a cooking academy or something.

He did?

I'm home.

You're here. You're right on time.

Something smells great.

Sweet! It’s braised galbi.

- It's beef. Braised galbi. - It looks delicious.

Thanks for the food.

Who are you, Paik Jong Won? Why are you savoring each flavor?

I was wondering if you had what it takes to go into cooking.

I heard you called Uncle Jae Ha.

Well, I...

I wanted to try it on my own.

That's why I'm saying this.

I was thinking of working part-time and going to a cooking academy.

At first,

I just started cooking because I wanted to do something for you...

since you were raising me yourself.

But as I kept doing it I think I have some talent too.

It's fun.

Follow me for a second. I have something for you.

What? What is it?

- Come on. - What is it?

- Hurry up. - Is it something good? Hang on.

What?

One, ten, a hundred, a thousand...

What is this?

It's the bank account I've been saving in for you since college.

But this is too much.

It's fine.

If I give you a monthly allowance,

you'll tiptoe around me and hesitate to ask for more.

Take that and use it to go to the cooking academy or on a trip.

Use it wisely for whatever you want.

You're a grown-up now. You should know how to manage your own money.

Then why not just wire me the money?

Who carries around a bankbook these days?

Why, you little...

What? Is this one yours? Can I see?

How dare you try to look in my drawer?

Get lost. Go and eat.

Thanks.

(Cash, Kim Seon Ju, 1 million dollars)

I will break up with Ju Won.

How much would it take?

Can you keep your promise...

and break up with my son?

Before answering his proposal,

there was something I had to do first.

She has arrived.

I'm sorry for contacting you out of the blue.

So?

Why did you come here?

I came to return the money you gave me.

And I wanted to see you...

and apologize to you as well.

Does this mean...

you won't be able to keep your promise?

I'm sorry.

I thought I'd be able to break up with him.

Once I accepted the money,

I thought I'd at least feel responsible and guilty enough...

to break up with him.

My heart did not move as I had intended to.

Are you asking me to allow you to get married now?

I have nothing to gain from that.

I know you don't see me as worthy.

- However... - You must be...

mistaken about something.

The reason why I even bothered to speak to you...

was because you were at least someone who could see reality.

Now,

it won't be worth my time.

What's wrong with this?

- Is something the matter? - I'm on Marketing Team One.

My badge won't scan all of a sudden.

- One moment. - Okay.

- Please check this badge. - Okay.

So, we checked,

and it says your resignation has been processed.

Pardon?

(Visitor's Pass)

I mean, Ms. Ha...

You only told us you were resigning a few days ago.

How can you leave so suddenly?

Are you perhaps embarrassed to see us and beating us to the punch?

- What? - We know that...

you and Director Seo are dating again.

We caught on too.

You're doing this because you feel shy about dating again, right?

If that's why you're leaving ahead of schedule while you're at it,

we'll really act like we don't know.

Please stay longer, okay?

It's not like that.

I was going to leave as soon as my projects were wrapped up.

Oh, by the way... Here.

If you look at this, it'll be enough to pick up where I left off.

If you need anything else...

or have any questions, let me know anytime.

Okay.

You'll do a good job, Mr. Bae.

Oh, it's Manager Bae now, right?

Director Seo, Ms. Ha is leaving now.

You knew about this, right?

That today was Ms. Ha's last day.

Gosh...

One moment.

What? Where are you going?

The HR Team.

I want to hear why they suddenly processed your resignation...

even without my approval.

I met with the chairwoman.

Hello.

Let's talk over there for a second.

What are you saying?

- Why would Mother... - I contacted her first.

To return the money I had accepted.

Why would you do that by yourself?

Didn't you think to tell me about it first?

It's not like that.

If I had said that I was going to meet the chairwoman beforehand,

you would've kept worrying.

In case I hear harsh words...

and in case I hear those words and have a change of heart again.

But Ju Won.

I won't be swayed anymore.

I went to see the chairwoman knowing she wouldn't welcome me.

And it's fine that she processed my resignation.

What's fine?

There's nothing to be serious about.

I returned the money I always felt bad about,

so I can date you with confidence now.

And I was going to resign anyway,

but she pulled it up by a week. So, now I get to have a vacation.

- But still... - As I've come to be by your side,

I'm only going to go straightforward.

So let's not act so pitiful.

Goodness. I haven't taken a nap in such a long time.

I'll sleep in until I have dinner.

What? Only 20 minutes?

Gosh, I'm so disappointed.

Why can't I sleep?

I've always wanted to try having fun during the day...

while everyone else was working.

But what did I want to do?

(Market Team)

The Design Team will bring us coffee for the meeting.

I'll take your orders!

I'll take an iced cafe mocha...

with a bunch of whipped cream.

(- I'll take your orders! - I'll take an iced cafe mocha...)

(with a bunch of whipped cream.)

You'll be talking about work here. I don't think I should be here.

I'll be leaving the group chat now.

(I'll be leaving the group chat now.)

Goodness, Ye Young.

You should've started a new group chat. Why did you post this here?

I'm regretting it now too. Stop yelling at me.

But seeing her leave the group chat makes it feel more real.

I didn't know she would leave so suddenly.

I know.

She was scary, but I still liked her.

Gosh, let's go to the meeting.

Right.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hey, is the rumor true about Manager Ha Yoon Seo?

What? Oh, about her resigning?

- Well, that's... - No, not that.

How she got cut off from entering the building this morning.

- Pardon? - "Cut off from entering?"

I mean, I saw her while coming to work.

She was so flustered because her entrance badge won't work.

So, the Security Team checked it for her,

but they said her resignation had been processed as of today.

- Good work. - Thank you.

- Bye. - Thank you.

What is this? So, just until this morning,

Ms. Ha wasn't aware that her resignation had been processed?

That must've been why Director Seo looked like that.

I thought he seemed really angry.

But if it was a clerical error,

Director Seo could've taken care of it at once. Why...

The person who fired Ms. Ha must've been the chairwoman.

No way. Why would she do that?

Why else? She had found out that the two were dating,

and she had even gone to Ms. Ha to tell her to break up.

But since they got back together,

she had Ms. Ha kicked out of the company.

You're right. Someone who has enough power to do that...

- is the chairwoman and no one else. - Right.

Hey, that was pretty clever.

- Oh, Mr. Lee. - What?

- Hello. - Hi.

What brings you here?

Oh, I came for a meeting with the PR Team.

I thought I'd say hello, so I brought snacks.

Thank you.

If you had come a bit sooner, you would've seen Ms. Ha.

She quit.

Well, she had submitted her letter of resignation,

but her last day was moved up suddenly, so she left as of today.

Oh, I see.

Hi, Ms. Ha. I heard you resigned.

Yes. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you beforehand.

I've passed on all of my work,

so there won't be any issues with the schedule in the future.

I'm not sure.

That's just your opinion.

I decided to do this exhibition because of you.

I think I was conned...

by AL CARD for not giving me a heads up about this.

- What? - Let's talk for a minute.

I'll see you at my studio.

Mr. Lee...

What? Yoon Seo went to see Mother?

Gosh, she's pretty impressive.

Not many people would be able to do that.

Hey, think positively about this.

Yoon Seo isn't wavering, so all you have to do is convince Mother.

Try everything you can.

Or not.

There isn't anything more you can do.

You tried asking her to trust and wait for you.

You tried opening up to her emotionally.

You even ran away from home.

What will you do now?

What? Are you teasing me right now?

Hey, I'm not teasing you. I'm just worried.

I'm wondering what you should do too.

Gosh, I wish I could buy you a drink tonight,

but I have plans with Mi Jin tonight.

Hey, do you want to join us?

No, I should go see Yoon Seo as soon as I get off work.

I'm so worried about her, but I couldn't go see her...

because she told me to stay at work.

I wonder how she is now.

Mr. Lee?

- Ta-da! - Oh, my goodness.

Congratulations on your resignation!

What?

I wanted to tell you that you've worked so hard to the point...

where a hard-working gene has been ingrained into your bones.

But I figured you wouldn't come if I just asked to see you.

Seriously. Until the end, you weird...

- Weird? - Weird...

You're weirdly pranking me again.

I mean, it's not like you work for AL CARD.

Why would you do this?

I really was grateful.

I got to hold my first exhibition, thanks to you.

Actually, I had thought I should do something more,

but I wasn't sure what to do or where to start.

Right when I was worrying about those things,

you offered me such a great plan.

And because it was from you, Ms. Ha,

I was able to make that decision quickly.

I was grateful for that.

Oh, right.

(Ms. Ha Yoon Seo, You've worked harder than anyone all this time.)

- One moment. - Okay.

(Seo Ju Won)

- Hey, Ju Won. - What are you doing?

Oh, I came outside for a bit.

Happy resignation to you

Happy resignation to you

Happy resignation, dear...

Well, you're not my dear. Anyway.

Happy resignation to you

Who's that? Who's saying he loves you?

And who's congratulating you on your resignation?

Oh, it's Artist Lee Sung Min.

I happened to come by his studio.

He prepared a cake for me, saying I've worked hard so far.

I didn't expect this when I came here either, but...

Got it. Hang up for now.

Seo Ju Won?

Twenty-five minutes.

What? What is?

Seo Ju Won will run over here in 25 minutes.

It normally takes about 50 minutes to get here,

but I think he'll make it in 25.

Gosh, what...

Why would Ju Won come here? What did we do?

What?

Do you want to make a bet on whether he comes or not?

Blow out your candle.

Let's go now.

Where?

There has to be wine for a goodbye party.

There's a good place nearby.

They said they had one table left, so I reserved it.

Seo Ju Won might be here soon, so let's get going.

What do you mean...

Yoon Seo!

What? He actually came?

It didn't even take 25 minutes, and he's already here?

Let's go, Yoon Seo.

Where are you going? We said we'd have wine together.

Have wine with me, Yoon Seo.

She said she'd have it with me.

I mean, why would my Yoon Seo drink wine with you?

To have a goodbye party.

You haven't even known each other for that long,

and you're having a goodbye party?

Isn't a goodbye party supposed to be with someone...

who worked together for a long time, like me?

Let's have the goodbye party with me, Yoon Seo.

Then you should've prepared it beforehand.

I said I'd do it first.

Come with me.

What is this? Deja vu or something?

Both of you, stop it.

I think I should eat with Mr. Lee today.

I've been grateful for him about a lot of things.

I've been meaning to treat him to a meal.

But you won't like it if I meet him on some other day.

So, since we've already met, I'll eat with him today.

But it's fine if Ju Won comes too, right?

Let's all eat together.

Let's go.

Wait up, Yoon Seo.

I should go first! You don't even know where it is.

It's good, isn't it?

I've been here before, but I thought of you,

so I brought you here.

- Thank you. - Sure.

By the way,

I know it might be weird to say this as a married couple,

but don't we feel like we're having a fling?

A bit.

Honestly, as I watched my parents living without any affection,

I had been against arranged marriages.

But now, I think it's kind of nice.

I mean, I never even thought that I'd get to feel this way...

throughout our marriage.

Right.

Then, try to convince Ju Won.

Mother seemed really upset.

But...

I also want to root for Ju Won.

I get how he must feel now.

I know from experience, and it's really...

Why did you stop mid-sentence?

Keep going. What do you know from experience?

Oh, nothing. Pretend like you didn't hear anything.

I already heard it. How can I pretend like I didn't?

Who doesn't have a past?

Gosh, what past?

It's just about when I was young. Like my first love...

I see.

It was your first love.

And you broke up because Mother was against it, like Ju Won?

Wife, I meant...

You must've had a rebellious phase as well,

enough to understand how Ju Won feels during his rebellion.

That must be why you were against arranged marriages.

You must not have liked me either, right?

Gosh, no...

Why is this so hard?

You should eat.

Yes.

You idiot, why did you have to say that stuff?

I mean,

me.

I was just trying to say that I liked our marriage.

But seriously. My wife isn't a kid.

Why is she getting upset about what's in the past?

Hang on.

Isn't this jealousy?

Gosh, what's this?

What am I supposed to do with her?

Hey, it's you.

No, it's me.

Shall we have a cup of tea since we're out already?

Warm tea is good for insomnia.

Don't you need strong whiskey...

instead of warm tea?

- What? - You seem nostalgic...

thinking about your first love.

You must be craving a drink.

I'll butt out,

so you can have a drink all by your lonesome.

What's with that adorably pouty face?

Are you being jealous?

It's not like you're a kid.

Mi Jin.

Hey, Hyun Sung!

"Hyun Sung?"

Hey, have you been well?

Why have you gotten so pretty? I nearly didn't recognize you.

What is this?

You've changed so much! You look so cool now.

- Do you work out too? - Of course, I do.

You surprised me.

Oh, your husband was with you.

Yes.

Hello. I'm Kim Hyun Sung.

Oh, yes.

I'm Seo Si Won.

The view here is great.

I didn't know you had made reservations somewhere so nice.

It does look a little cramped, though.

I know.

He was boasting about making reservations at a nice place.

But what's with the seat?

I barely managed to reserve the last table available.

How was I supposed to know it was a table for two?

Who was it that made a party of 2 become a party of 3?

Isn't it weirder to come to a place like this with someone...

who has a boyfriend?

What kind of place is this?

A romantic place with a nice mood.

This place is not romantic. It's just normal.

Oh, you must not have been to places like this often.

You should go to some nice places with Yoon Seo.

Tonight is a party for me, right?

But I feel really uncomfortable right now.

Right? Mr. Lee is really making people feel uncomfortable.

Should we go someplace more comfortable on our own?

Gosh. Honestly, Mr. Seo.

You should be grateful to me.

I'm not one to boast like this,

but the fact that you two got back together again...

Isn't it all thanks to me?

That's a funny way to put it, Mr. Lee.

How is that thanks to you?

At the gamjatang restaurant the other day,

Ms. Ha was going on and on about how much she missed you.

So, I called you to come and pick her up.

Honestly, the fact that you two got back together...

When Ha Yoon Seo had given up,

thinking Seo Ju Won was leaving for Spain for good,

I gave her a boost of courage...

for you to run to him right away, right?

You two have talked about quite a lot while I wasn't around.

(Ji Seok)

Hey, Ji Seok.

One moment.

Yes.

- Gosh. - Gosh.

I'm sorry, but I think I'm going to have to step outside.

Why? Is something the matter?

Oh, Ji Seok went to register for an academy,

and it's right around here.

I think it would be good for me to take a look too.

The steak hasn't been served yet.

It'd be awkward to say goodbye here.

- I'll be right back. - I'll come with you.

Ji Seok likes me.

You? Ji Seok?

Yes, of course.

He absolutely loves you.

But it'd be rude to leave Mr. Lee here alone.

I'll be right back.

- I'll be back soon. - Okay.

Gosh.

You should move.

My gosh.

I want to ask you something.

- What? - I'm not dying to know or anything,

but I'm just slightly curious.

Who was that guy who called you "Mi Jin?"

Oh, my first love.

- What? - Are you the only one...

with a first love?

I have one too. I loved him so dearly.

We were madly in love for about two years, but...

I dated for three years. I was passionately in love too.

My love was even more passionate. It was burning up like a furnace.

My love was as hot as lava.

I cried for a whole month after we broke up!

I cried for a whole year.

I thought I'd never love again.

Fine. Don't ever love again.

Fine. I won't!

But...

This isn't it.

I mean, why have a battle about that?

My gosh!

Goodness.

Who's the one who should be angry right now?

Forget it.

We had an arranged marriage without any love anyway.

What did I expect?

But still, I said...

I said so.

That I've come to like you!

Darn it!

I hate you so much.

Can I ask you something?

Throwing her a party like this...

You don't still have feelings for her, do you?

Actually,

I like Ms. Ha.

What... What did you say?

But I like you too.

- Pardon? - I like you both.

I feel drawn to you guys because you seem like me in the past.

Your family is against your relationship, right?

Why are you surprised?

Everyone in the office had caught on and was talking about it too.

So, what about you?

Have you prepared yourself?

Well, I'm working on it.

I'm working to show that I can expand the business...

just with my own capabilities without an arranged marriage.

But won't that take a few years, at least?

What about Ms. Ha?

So, I was thinking about giving up everything I had and left home...

That's what guys like me would do.

You know, don't you?

I cut ties with my family because they were opposed to me doing art.

Yes, well...

The reason why I could cut ties with everything and leave...

was because I only had to protect myself.

But you have to protect Ha Yoon Seo too.

And yet, how can you act like a rebellious teenager...

and leave home, act up, and react emotionally?

Then, what should I do?

Right.

I don't like the phrase...

that parents give in to their kids in the end.

A surprising number of parents overpower their children.

Instead of trying to win,

try to bend.

Just like love is something you want to fight for...

at the expense of giving everything else up,

There must be something...

your mother wants to protect by going this far.

Try to understand where she's coming from...

and start a frank conversation.

Who knows?

You might get through to her.

Sorry I took my time.

We ended up meeting with the instructor.

What happened? You drank all that while I was gone?

Yes.

Yoon Seo.

I see Mr. Lee in a different light now.

- What? - I thought he was a psychopath,

but he's a great guy.

Why do you speak so informally when I'm older than you?

We even went to the same university.

Oh, right.

Then Mr... No, my dear senior.

Can I call you that now? "Senior?"

I like how that sounds.

Why the sudden...

Senior Lee.

I was actually jealous of you.

There was something I'd wanted to do since I was a kid,

but I gave that up.

But you, Senior Lee. You never gave up.

You have my greatest respect.

I didn't know that about you.

Here.

That must've been heartbreaking.

At the time, I felt...

so frustrated.

Did it weigh on you?

That's when you should shout!

Why would you suddenly shout?

- Let's shout. - Yes.

What am I to do?

What should I do?

I dared to

Fall in love

With...

I love Ha Yoon Seo

Where are you?

Do you hear me?

It's just you

Seriously, I just want Yoon Seo

Please allow our relationship

My love only grows

Sometimes it seeps out before I notice

I cry like a child who lost their way

Don't close your eyes

Look at me

I try to lean in close

And whisper in your ear

It's time for the final song.

We dedicate it to Ms. Ha...

who worked tirelessly for AL CARD.

That's right. Yoon Seo.

A much happier life awaits you.

To that, I say "amor fati!"

Such is life

Everyone starts off empty-handed

They create stories fit for a novel

And scatter them as they go

Don't be disappointed in yourself

You can't do everything well

It's fine as long as tomorrow is better than today

Life starts right now

Go!

What?

Amor fati

Amor fati

Amor fati

Amor fati

What happened?

Why am I at home?

I'm back home, Mother!

How have you been?

Oh, my goodness.

Mother. You went too far.

Did I go too far by stopping you from falling,

or did you go too far by coming back this late?

You went too far.

How could you fire Yoon Seo just like that?

Yoon Seo! Before being my girlfriend,

she was a skilled employee who worked hard for your company.

So how could you kick her out the very next day?

Let's talk when you're sober.

Can't you just approve of us?

This is the first time I ever...

asked for something.

I'm asking you for the first time since that day.

Si Won, look at this. I'll be a sculptor.

I made these at school today.

This is a puppy and this is a turtle.

Are they? They look amazing.

When will Mom be back?

I'm not sure.

She said this business trip would be a long one.

She might be home next week.

I want to show these to her soon.

- Mom. - Yes?

Mom, I know what I want to be.

I'll be a sculptor.

These are my presents for you.

Seo Ju Won.

What does Mom dislike the most?

That's...

not doing what I'm supposed to do.

I hope you didn't...

forget to do what you're supposed to to make these.

You did enough sculpting, so let's not do that again.

Do you understand?

Yes.

Since that day...

I never had a dream.

Dreaming of doing something...

seemed to disappoint you.

So I never dreamed since then.

But Mother.

I want to be happy now.

Why did I bring up...

something from that long ago?

Darn it.

There must be something...

your mother wants to protect by going this far.

Try to understand where she's coming from...

and start a frank conversation.

I want to be happy now.

Are you here to complain...

that I upset the person you like?

I apologize.

I shouldn't have brought up...

what I did last night when I was drunk.

I didn't mean to blame you.

I was young then and I was hurt,

but I'm aware now...

that you were teaching me...

what I should and shouldn't do.

But...

I meant it when I said I wanted to be happy.

Does that mean...

you're unhappy now?

I meant that with Yoon Seo,

I could be happier.

After you left home,

I waited for you to return.

You only returned after I pushed her to the edge of a cliff.

As your mother...

That hurt.

- That was... - You asked if I couldn't be...

a mother and not the chairwoman.

That bothered me.

I know I wasn't an affectionate mother to you.

But since you were my son,

I believed I should raise you to be tough.

Then one day...

you'd be grateful toward me for it, just like your brother.

It looks like...

you're different from him.

I just hope you understand I didn't want you...

to not be happy.

I don't know...

how I'm to face her now.

Should I have stopped him from going home?

I hope he didn't take her on with liquid courage.

(Seo Ju Won)

Hey. Was everything okay last night?

What do you mean?

You were pretty dead drunk.

You didn't retaliate or headbutt...

your mother, I hope.

I didn't.

You pleaded with me not to.

- Yoon Seo. - Yes?

Never mind.

What is it? Tell me.

I wanted to hold back in case I was being hasty,

but it's good news and I couldn't wait to tell you.

What is it? Talk to me.

I think my mother...

opened up.

What?

Good morning.

I don't know...

if it's a good morning.

I brewed too much.

I don't want to waste coffee grinds.

This coffee will taste...

as bitter as the memories of your first love.

Enjoy.

Mi Jin.

I'll call you by your name now.

Can't I?

You can do whatever you want.

Why did you call me anyway?

Shall we date?

Goodness.

How can we date when we're married?

I don't know how the order got this jumbled up,

but we skipped dating and proposing to get married,

and I'm confused.

I don't know what we can or can't do.

To be honest,

I felt jealous yesterday.

You were jealous?

I hated seeing your first love in person.

That's why I acted so childishly.

I'm sorry.

Okay.

Well, so, that guy...

was a kindergarten friend.

- What? - He came to our wedding,

so I thought you'd recognize him.

When you didn't,

I lied about who he was to win the argument.

I was jealous too.

Right? You were jealous, right?

You like me too, don't you?

I was embarrassed when you didn't say anything...

when I told you I liked you when we were at the market.

Have you really...

grown to like me too?

I have.

Then can we...

link arms in public and hold hands?

Yes.

As family, roommates, and business partners,

we agreed to call, text, or DM each other once a day.

Can I break that rule and contact you whenever I want?

Yes.

What about that, then?

In the morning?

Then how about at night?

Why won't she pick up?

Why are you here out of the blue?

I came to get you since I'm jobless now.

I'd always wanted to pick up my boyfriend from work.

We'll be late. Help me move the stuff from my car.

What?

I'd also wanted to go somewhere randomly,

so I packed some camping gear.

For real?

I even brought you clothes.

Thank you.

I'll unpack. You go and get changed first.

Shall we have soju and beer?

Shall we?

Is it hot?

Cheers.

You brought sweet potatoes too? You're a genius.

You bet.

AL CARD lost out when they let me go.

Still, I'm relieved the chairwoman...

seemed to open up a little.

To be honest, I was annoyed.

I knew I'd leave because I'd resigned,

but if felt like I'd been dismissed.

I had mixed feelings.

But...

after your call this morning,

I was so pleased I forgot all about that.

I'm sorry.

And thank you.

Skip the apology.

Just say thank-you from now on.

Honey.

I think I burned my hand a bit...

while putting the sweet potatoes in the fire. It hurts.

- Really? Let me see. - Yes.

I love you.

Let's get married.

You must've been flustered that I asked to see you.

So...

I'll get to the point.

Your marriage to Ju Won.

I'll allow it.

But there's a condition.

I want you...

to run our scholarship foundation.

Your scholarship foundation?

Wouldn't it seem more sincere if you were to run the foundation...

considering your unfortunate upbringing?

A Cinderella who married a rich heir...

runs a scholarship foundation to help people...

in similar circumstances as hers.

I need...

a fairy tale like that.

Live like...

a true Cinderella.

(Cinderella at 2AM)

Let's go public with your past...

and plan the wedding.

Is this why you got back with my sister?

To sell our story and use it?

Is my sister's painful past just a business opportunity to you?

Did Mother really make that kind of offer?

How rude of her.

Why are you always so understanding?

You looked precarious.

Like someone by the edge of a cliff.

The necklace. That's beautiful.

You don't know?

I feel a chill.

It must be a necklace I should know about.

It's possible...

for reality to be more loving than a fairy tale.
