(Hot Love Issue)

Guess where I am right now.

Ta-da! Welcome back home, Ran!

Whoo-hoo!

A thief broke into her house, but instead of feeling troubled,

what did she do? She went to stay at her ex's. Completely carefree.

Yiwha,

I'll get you some blankets so you can sleep on the floor.

Grace,

that isn't right.

She's your guest. Let her use the bed.

Ran!

- Hey. - What...

What's going on?

Grace, what happened?

It's time you choose between me and her.

Calm down.

Explain to me

why you are upset.

You were cuddling another woman on our bed.

You owe me an explanation.

Make a choice right now, me or her.

Wait.

Was I cuddling her?

Darn right, you were.

Grace, listen.

I'm sorry.

I thought I was cuddling you.

It was unintentional.

I was sleeping.

What about you?

Did you seriously not notice someone spooning you?

I did.

Since last night.

But I couldn't help it.

- It used to be our sleeping habit. - Hey.

We used to spoon each other all the time when we were dating.

Yiwha, get off me.

But you are not dating anymore.

Why didn't you wake him up?

Well, I was sleepy.

Also, he didn't cross the line or anything.

It would be a different story if he did.

Wait.

Actually, I'm not sure.

Last night,

I felt...

a hand groping my chest.

I was asleep, so the memory was very vague to me.

Ran, did you grope me?

- Yiwha. - What?

Stop talking nonsense.

I would have woken up if I had done that.

Oh, right. I forgot how sensitive you were.

I bet you're pitching a tent

as we speak.

Let me see it.

No.

Ran, I was right.

- Stop it. - What?

- You used to always show me. - Stop.

Let me take a peek at it.

- No. - Let me see.

- Yiwha. - What?

- Grace. - Ran.

- Let me see. - Stop.

This isn't funny.

Come on, Ran.

Bye, Ran Junior.

Grace, let's go.

Sit down.

We need to talk.

Why don't we talk in the car?

We are running late.

No, I want to talk to you right here.

I want to see your face

and look into your eyes to see

what's on your mind.

Here?

Are you sure it's a good idea?

We have nowhere else to go.

Our home is occupied

by strangers.

Let's talk here then.

All right.

Talk to me.

I'm all ears.

Tell me

if you are still happy with our relationship.

Of course I am.

Why do you ask?

I love you.

Yes, I know you do.

But your mother wants you to be with Yiwha.

Ran.

You can tell me if it's uncomfortable to be with me

and that you wish to get back together

with Yiwha.

Don't worry about me.

I'll let you be together.

Don't be like this, Grace.

Stop being sarcastic.

I don't like it.

I'm not.

I'm serious.

I mean what I said.

I'm done

putting up with your mother and Yiwha.

I don't see

the end of it.

And no matter what I do,

your mother will never accept me.

Grace.

I have a question for you then.

Do you still love me?

Of course.

I wouldn't be here

if I didn't love you.

If you still love me...

then don't give up just yet.

This is only the beginning.

We have so many more obstacles to face together as a couple.

Do I really deserve to deal with all this toxicity?

I shouldn’t even be in this situation

in the first place.

But we love each other.

We will get through this eventually.

When that day comes,

our love will be stronger and more valuable than ever.

But if you give up now,

you will regret

not giving us

your best shot later on.

Grace.

Let's hold hands and get through this together.

I will never let go of your hand.

I don't see you doing anything

to protect our relationship besides holding my hand.

You let me fight for us alone.

Do you really think

things will work out between us?

Grace.

Wait here.

I'll take care of it.

Are you sure you don't need me?

Yes.

I'm sure.

Your presence

will make my mother and Yiwha more upset.

It will be more difficult to talk to them.

Also, this is something

I have to do by myself.

I promise

you won't see them

when you enter our place.

- Tada. - Wow.

It smells amazing, Toi.

Yes, it does.

Yiwha, look.

These are goji berries.

They are considered aphrodisiacs.

I put a lot of them in there.

I assure you that Ran will be up all night.

Toi.

Can we add more?

Of course.

- Let's add more. - Great.

Add them.

- Let's mix them well. - Wow.

- Wait, Toi. - What?

What do I do

if Ran approaches Grace but not me tonight?

That's why you have to approach him first.

He will definitely give in if you approach him tonight.

We must mix them well.

Ran, you are back.

I just finished making chicken soup.

Did Grace not come with you?

No, she didn't.

Perfect, let's have dinner then.

Yiwha, go set the table.

Sure, for three people, right?

Stop.

I need to talk

to you both.

What's the matter?

Listen.

Grace and I

planned to live here alone.

Having you two

move in

with us...

makes me uncomfortable.

Therefore,

I’d like to ask both of you

to move back to your places

since there’s no urgent reason for you

to stay here.

Ran.

Grace told you to kick us out, didn't she?

Why didn't she talk to us herself?

What a coward.

It doesn't matter who says it.

Let me be

honest with you, Mom.

I can't take it anymore.

I can't

stand you

always meddling in my life.

I don't even get to

choose the girl I date.

Yiwha.

I don't like you anymore.

Our past

was a mistake.

No matter what you do,

you won't get me back.

Ran.

How can you say that?

How dare you disobey me?

Do you remember your father's last words?

Answer me!

What promise did you make to him?

I promised...

to obey you.

I'm glad

you still remember it.

You must keep your promise.

Since you are being honest,

I will be honest with you too.

I don't like Grace.

That brat is harsh,

and she always talks back.

She’ll attack me

if I ever let you marry her.

Ran.

I've had enough of her too.

You have to dump her and go home with me today.

Answer me. Are you staying or not?

Grace, learn some manners.

Stay out of it.

Answer me.

Are you staying or not?

I'm staying.

I choose you.

Did you hear that?

Both of you, get out of my place now.

Get out!

I said get out!

You won't leave, will you?

All right then.

- Leave! - Grace!

- Stop. - Get out!

- Grace! - Leave!

- Leave! - You are crazy.

You are the crazy one. Out!

- Grace, you brat. - Out! You.

- Out! - Grace, you nut job.

- Leave! - Grace!

- Toi, run! - Go home!

- Out! - Press the elevator.

- Go home. - Grace, you nut job!

Don't show your faces here again.

Ran and I are dating.

Stay out of our lives.

Grace...

How rude.

That skank.

- Toi. - Yes.

What are we going to do?

Are we going home without our stuff?

Are you brave enough to go back for your belongings?

You couldn’t handle things,

so I had to take matters into my own hands.

I came to drop off your stuff and my mother's.

Just leave them there.

Mom.

Mom.

Where's my mother?

She wasn't at the restaurant.

She's in her room.

You know,

she hasn’t stepped outside

since Grace kicked her out.

She's been locking herself in at home.

Think about it.

She hasn't even gone to the restaurant.

She's letting her staff run the place.

I'll check on her then.

Wait, Ran.

Talk to her nicely.

Don't upset her again.

You've hurt her enough.

Actually,

I've been here for days trying to comfort her,

but it's not working at all.

Mom.

What are you doing here?

Why are you here?

Why aren't you with her?

I thought you loved her so much.

Mom.

I came to apologize on her behalf.

She just lost her temper.

She actually tried her best

to be nice to you,

but...

She didn't mean to do that.

In all my life,

nobody has ever treated me like that before.

You let her kick me out like an animal.

And here you are defending her.

Do you have any idea how much it hurts

knowing you love her more than me?

It's not true.

Who told you that?

I still love you.

It's not the same as before.

You’ve changed

since you met her.

Whatever.

I told myself

that you would get a girlfriend one day.

You can date whoever you want.

I won't meddle in your life anymore.

Leave.

Don't show your face here again.

No, Mom.

Mom.

Leave.

- I love you. - Leave.

No, you don't. Get out.

I love you.

Hello, where are you?

I ordered you food.

I'm waiting to eat with you.

Grace.

Eat without me.

Don't wait up.

Listen.

I'm not coming home tonight.

I'm staying at my mother's.

What? Why? What happened?

My mom's not doing well.

She won't stop crying.

I should stay here with her for the time being.

Are you okay with that?

Of course. She's your mother.

How long are you planning to stay?

I don't know yet.

I'll come home once my mother

feels better.

Mm. Bye.

Oh my! She's acting like she owns the place.

And how long has your boyfriend been gone?

It's been a week already.

He said his mom's condition hasn't improved.

Her appetite hasn't returned either.

He's worried she'll get worse if he comes back.

So he's in it for the long haul.

Call me crazy,

but do you think it's all an act?

I think so too.

But what else can I do?

What if I say to him, "Hey, your mom's lying."

"There's no need to hang around. Just come back to me."

I can't do that, can I?

It's like I'm asking him to be ungrateful.

You've got a point.

But you still have to be careful.

He might not come back at all

if he's over there for too long.

By the look of things, his mom and ex won't

let him come home that easily.

Oh? Grace?

What are you doing here?

I'm here to take Ran home.

Is he here?

Oh, you're here to take your boyfriend home?

There's no need for that.

He'll come home whenever he feels like it.

But if he doesn't, he won't come home no matter how hard you try.

I asked you if he's here.

He is.

Can you let me inside? I need to talk to him.

Did you just ask me to let you inside?

Really? My ears weren't playing tricks, were they?

Have you forgotten?

You kicked Toi and me out of your place the other day

like we were animals of some sort. Don't you remember?

And now you expect me to let you in? No way.

Then tell him to come out. I'll wait here.

Be my guest.

Oh? Hey! I said I'm not letting you in!

Hey! I said no!

I said you can't go in there!

And is this your house?

Do you really have the right to stop me from going in there?

I'm not letting you in. What right do I have?

What right? Here it is!

- You're crazy! - This is my right!

What's your problem? This is my right!

Yiwha!

Grace!

- Don't! - You!

- You crazy woman! - You spoiled brat!

Didn't your parents teach you manners, Grace?

You're not letting me in? Do you think you own the place?

And have you ever been allowed inside?

- So what? - Grace!

Grace!

- Grace! - Let go of me!

Grace.

- What's going on here? - Stop right now!

- Grace! - Yiwha!

You! Be a degenerate somewhere else!

- Leave! Go away! - Mom!

- You liar! - Mom!

- Grace! - I should take her home.

She got here on her own so she can find her way back!

- Ran! - Get in the car!

- Yiwha! - Ran, don't go!

Come back here!

- Darn it. - Ran!

- Ran! - Ran!

Oh, come on!

- Why is he driving her home? - Grace!

- Ran! - You brat!

- You! - Yiwha!

Come back!

What happened here?

I didn't do anything.

You saw it. She hurt me. I didn't even touch her.

And don't you see?

Ran's left with her.

And how could you let him?

Why didn't you hold him back?

Oh? I thought you would.

Are you crazy? I'm old.

What if I fell over?

You stupid girl!

And look at this! It's such a mess!

Clean all of this up!

My gosh.

You hag.

Why do I have to?

Hag!

Grace,

I'm sorry.

I haven't been replying to your texts,

so you had to come all the way to see me.

It's my fault.

It's all my fault.

I can't even handle just a single problem.

Do you still want to be in a relationship with me?

Of course I do.

But... can you give me some time?

I'm trying.

Ran, you're an adult.

You have to live your own life.

This is your life, not anyone else's.

But I can't just leave Mom.

She has only me.

She's got no one else apart from me.

I'm not telling you to abandon her. You need to let each other be.

You can't let her handle everything for you,

especially not who your date's going to be.

You have to make your own choices.

You can't let her choose as if you are a little kid.

Okay. Mm.

I'll try talking to her.

Ran,

if you go back to your mother this time,

I won't wait for you anymore.

Even if you disappear,

I won't go looking for you.

If there's somewhere else you want to be, just go.

Don't come back to me again.

Grace,

why are you saying that?

I'm exhausted.

I don't want to fight for you anymore.

I'm only going to ask you one thing.

Today,

are you going back to your mother?

Or are you going to come with me?

Come on, Mom.

The doctor already said you're fine.

So why would you need me there?

No, Mom. Don't.

I'm worried a fight might break out again if you come over here.

Of course I love you.

Mm. Even if I'm with my girlfriend,

I still love you like always.

Mom, about that...

Well...

(Club Friday the Series)

Hello, Aoy, Chod.

My name is Grace.

I'd like to discuss something with you.

And that's everything that has happened.

I was able to bring my boyfriend back today.

But I still have a sense

that the same old problems will resurface again.

That's why I'd like your advice.

What should I do in this kind of situation?

Based on what you've told us,

you seem like a hot-headed person.

I don't find it strange that your boyfriend's mom isn't fond of you.

But I also understand why you reacted the way you did.

You've been clashing with each other

back and forth.

And you've reached a difficult point to reconcile.

I'm afraid

if things keep going this way,

it's going to be a headache for everyone involved.

You have to accept

that your boyfriend and his mother will

forever be mother and son.

You can't change that fact.

So if you want this relationship to survive,

you have to find a way to manage it

or walk away from it.

Sometimes love isn't just about two people.

We can't say if you should leave or stay.

You have to make that decision.

But you have to understand that if you stay,

you might end up in the same situation forever

if your boyfriend and his mother

both refuse to change.

But if you love yourself enough,

you should walk away from people who make you unhappy.

There are only two ways to approach this.

In any case, you have our support.

And we hope you can find a solution that works for you.

Of course I love you.

How many times do you want me to say it?

Well,

I can visit you on the weekends.

Grace? What are you doing?

I'm in the middle of a call.

That's enough.

You were on the phone for hours, repeatedly saying the same things.

Try being strong sometimes.

It's because you're weak like this.

That's why your mom keeps controlling you.

(Yiwha)

Grace, Yiwha's calling.

(Call back ASAP. Toi's in trouble.)

Yiwha texted,

"Call back ASAP. Toi's in trouble."

This is probably the hundredth time she's faking being sick.

Stop falling for her tricks.

Ran, open the door!

Don't. I'm not letting her in.

Ran, open the door now!

Toi's about to jump off the building!

What?

What did you say?

Toi's about to jump off the building. She's on the rooftop.

Don't believe her.

How come she's about to jump off the building all of a sudden?

See for yourself if you don't believe me.

Then you can come back to insult me if it's not true.

Mom!

Why are you standing there?

Don't come any closer.

Don't act like you're worried about me.

My life isn't worth anything.

My only son

doesn't even see my worth.

You won't even be sad

if I die.

You're probably happy

that you'll get to be with your girlfriend

without anyone bothering you.

Mom, can you step down first?

Let's talk, okay?

There's nothing to talk about.

I've been thinking about this over and over.

I have to die tonight, no matter what,

in front of you and your girlfriend.

Right here.

Right above your condo's balcony.

I'll keep watch over you and Grace

living happily together.

Mom,

what are you talking about?

Mom,

please step down. It's dangerous.

Please?

Toi,

so what do you think

he should do

so you'll agree to come back down?

There is only one way.

I have to be sure you truly love me, Ran.

You have to completely break things off with Grace.

Otherwise,

I'm going to jump!

That's enough. I give up.

You can have your son back.

Ran, we should break up.

Don't ever come see me ever again.

Go back to your mother and Yiwha.

I've had enough!

No, Grace. Don't.

I'm not breaking up with you.

Give me a chance.

Please?

Grace?

You know it, don't you?

You know how hard this is for me.

I'm always wrong,

no matter who I choose.

You don't have to anymore.

I said I'm breaking up with you.

So you won't be stuck in this uncomfortable situation.

And I won't have to

put up with this insanity

with your mother and your ex.

Everything should just end here.

Grace!

Can you wait for me?

Can you? Please?

And someday,

we'll be together again, okay?

Ran,

there's more to my life

than waiting for you.

If you're going to try and win me back,

you'll probably have to wait for your mother to die first.

But until then,

I don't know if I'll still be single or if I'll still want you.

But right now,

hurry up and take your mother to a psychiatric ward

before the EMTs arrive.

Grace!

Grace, can you not leave me?

Please?

I love you, Grace!

Ran, let go of me!

Grace!

Grace!

Grace!

Jam,

it's the last Friday of the month. Should we go dancing in Thong Lor?

Hm? You could never make it before.

Why the sudden change of heart?

Well...

I broke up with my boyfriend.

Really?

Guys!

Grace is now free!

Let's celebrate her freedom tonight! Okay?

- Okay! - Okay!

Um, so everyone knew about it?

Come on. Let's congratulate her.

Our colleague's finally escaped from hell!

Music!

Aoy, Chod, I finally decided

to prioritize my own happiness.

Even though I'm in a lot of pain right now,

I believe that

things will get better over time.

And I'll be ready to move forward.

Thank you, Aoy, Chod.

Family may be the obstacle telling you whether to move forward or not.

Maybe later? I'm a bit tired tonight.

A longstanding married life

where the wife refuses to sleep with the husband.

Guys like us need to find the best solution for ourselves.

What should I do next?

Just walk away from him and stay by my side.

Present-day Tee might be different from past Tee.

Do you really think what you did is less wrong than what I did?

Do you really think cheating is worse than casual sex?

- It hit her eyes. - Sorry.

- Did that hurt? - Grace!

My bag!

That's blocking your way.

I'm a fashion model.
