You said you wanted me to pat you on the back.
Good job on coming this far to sort things out.
It must've been stressful for you.
We took necessary measures,
and the assemblyman's press release will prevent future rumours,
so you won't have to worry.
I must attend a Hanok Stay meeting.
Excuse me.
Get back to Seoul safely. Good job.
Why did he just leave?
I wonder too.
He should just leave. What else would he do?
Think about it.
Just last night, he and I had a childish battle over you.
And he just left after seeing us like this?
"Like this?" What did we do?
We just painted together,
and I comforted you.
Exactly.
We sat side-by-side to paint,
and you patted my shoulder to comfort me.
And Mr. Jealous Seo Ju Won saw all that and walked away?
You don't find that odd?
Director, I'm on my way to Yeosu.
Someone should be there to handle the press if they gather.
What is it?
Yoon Seo's on her way to Yeosu.
I know it's for work, but it bothers me.
I called a helicopter for you, and you still haven't won her back?
Win her back?
I got emotional and drunk
and made a fool of myself in front of her and Lee Sung Min.
My gosh.
This won't do. I must go too.
What the
Why are you getting in the way of a busy man?
Mother has a lot on her mind, and I am a busy man myself,
so I was going to stay out of your love life.
But I just can't stand watching what's going on.
So what? You'll get involved again?
No thanks.
Getting in the helicopter with you ruined everything.
I told you to rush over in the helicopter and get the girl,
not get dead drunk.
Be honest.
Did you rush over there and bare your heart and tell her
you were jealous and that you wanted her back?
How do you know that?
You tall but foolish brother of mine.
Who shows their hand when playing poker?
If you show her all your feelings,
you're playing a losing game.
Now you must use another tactic.
Another tactic?
Yes.
If you really want to get her back,
let her go about this much, and then pull her back.
That's called "one step back, ten steps forward."
If I really want to get her back,
I let her go, then pull her back.
(Cinderella at 2AM)
What is it?
Does it feel weird that Seo Ju Won just left?
No.
I was just a bit hungry,
so I was wondering what to eat when I got home.
I could have black bean noodles or tteokbokki.
To be honest,
today's incident was a tough one that involved actual politics.
It would be weirder if he let emotions get in the way.
I see him in a different light
now that I see he can keep his life out of his work.
But he doesn't seem the type to just let it go.
Just thinking about how he'll harass us tomorrow
exhausts me already.
How about you have the tteokbokki and black bean noodles with me?
Why would I eat that with you?
No, thank you.
What?
Are you bothered the director might find out?
As if.
Why would I be bothered about that?
I was bothered. It did get to me.
And the next day, Ju Won acted
more differently than I expected.
Good morning.
Hello. Good morning.
Or is it just a morning?
To be honest, it's a troubling morning.
What's the matter? Is something wrong?
The director's moving his office.
What?
Director.
Why are you suddenly moving offices?
I have a lot of meetings with Marketing Team Three for now.
Will you return, then?
I can't say. I don't know when that may be.
Goodbye.
The first thing you must do
is to move to a different office.
Move my office? Why?
Why else?
You were never out of Yoon Seo's sight.
You don't notice an addition, but you always notice an absence.
If you disappear when she thought you'd always be around,
she'll think of you even more.
But people also say, "Out of sight, out of mind."
What if I at least got on her nerves when I was around,
but then I go and she feels relieved?
Why would she feel relieved?
If you have time to be clueless and frustrating,
go and pack.
It looks like the director's
trying to get over her, doesn't it?
Yes, it does.
At Ms. Ha's place last time,
and at the team dinner,
he acted like he longed to get her back.
But today, he packed his stuff and left.
Things really must be over. The end!
- Let's get back. - Let's go.
Oh, dear.
He came to the meeting.
I didn't think he would.
Thanks for the detailed report.
When I signed on Lee Sung Min,
there was a condition that we sponsor young artists.
I liked the idea and would like to act on it.
What do you think, Ms. Ha?
Yes, it sounds like a good idea.
It would improve our brand's image too.
How about we create an artists' residence at Hanok Stay?
I don't like that.
Then the next step.
From now on, you will become a bad guy.
A bad guy? What's that?
All this explaining is hurting my facial muscles.
So far, I bet you were the sweetest, kindest, most gentle,
and most polite to Yoon Seo as if
you were the greatest gentleman in the world, right?
Of course. I liked her.
However,
women love to hate but are still attracted to
bad guys.
A guy who makes them desperate.
Look.
Didn't you lean in closer when I turned away from you?
Did you feel desperate or not?
- I did. - See?
It's not just you.
Let's get Yoon Seo worked up too.
You used to be like
"Okay. Sure. Why not?"
No, you must do this. "No. I'm not sure."
Act gruff and cold.
When she sees the mean you,
she'll get fired up with the yearning to turn you back.
Then how about supporting them in the form of a scholarship?
- We could select three people - Wouldn't four be better?
Yes.
We could select four people
and give them enough money for them to go abroad for a year
A year and a half would be better.
How about we order lunch before continuing the meeting?
Yes, that's a good idea.
Ms. Ha, what would you like to eat?
Let's just eat gimbap.
Hang on.
Wouldn't tuna gimbap be better?
Why the sudden change?
Just a few days ago he said
he didn't want to live without me.
What do you think got into him?
I don't know.
Did you do something that suddenly made him sick of you?
Of course not.
It has only been three days.
What could I have done in three days?
Hey. That night.
You drank all night long and came here for hangover soup.
Didn't you say you both got drunk and you messed up?
Didn't you disgust him then?
Can you not forget me because I'm so pretty?
Am I that charming?
As if he wasn't drunk himself.
He was even more drunk.
Yes. It can't have been the first time he saw her drunk.
I think it was something else.
Something else what?
From what I heard as I was cooking,
you'd been getting on well with another guy.
You said Ju Won said he felt bothered by it.
Do you think he was disappointed
for not being careful despite that?
The conviction that you were the one
he should spend the rest of his life with
melted away.
Yes. That could be it.
If you kept it up when he said he was displeased,
it could've looked inconsiderate.
Whatever.
So what if I seemed inconsiderate?
It's for the better.
It's better to drift apart from someone I broke up with.
Who cares?
Darn it.
Si Won, I'm scared.
Yoon Seo seemed angry after yesterday's meeting.
I think I need to stop doing this.
Get a grip!
Go and wash your face with cold water.
We reached the critical point where you have just one step left.
- One step? - Yes.
- What's that? - Come closer.
It's called
the jealousy strategy.
- The jealousy strategy? - Yes.
You got fired up when another man approached her, right?
Yes.
That's called "swapping places."
The jealousy that you feel. Yoon Seo should feel
that instinctive feeling to realize how precious you are.
Call a good female friend
and hang out with her in places Yoon Seo often passes by.
I don't know any women other than Yoon Seo.
What Gen Z guy doesn't have female friends?
Go on a blind date, then.
No way.
That's cheating, not reeling in.
It's not cheating. You're making her jealous.
Oh, help me.
(Vice Chairman Seo Si Won)
(Wife)
Hang on.
Hey.
- Forget it. - I'm in my office.
Are you? Work hard, then.
See you later.
Why is she saying that when she's in Paris?
Hey, Ju Won.
Find someone somewhere.
The jealousy strategy is the best.
Forget the jealousy thing. It's okay.
(Artist Lee Sung Min)
The artist commentary event will be rescheduled for next week.
Just so you know.
Is Mr. Jealous Seo Ju Won back to normal?
As if he were back to normal.
I should be grateful he decided to get over me.
It's for the better.
- What's that? - Hey.
The woman next to the director. Is that his girlfriend?
No, that's the vice chairman's wife.
Eunho Department Store's senior managing director.
Oh, right.
I saw her on social media.
I remember her. Senior Managing Director Lee Mi Jin.
I was so taken aback that I didn't recognize her at first.
This was a brief misunderstanding, but it will happen for real one day.
I meant it when I thought I wanted him to find a good person.
What shocked me
was the fact that I was more flustered
than I expected to be
when I saw Ju Won with another woman.
Ms. Mi Jin? How about you let go now?
Shall I?
I was in high heels and I considered you my walking stick.
Sorry if that bothered you.
I wasn't bothered, but the employees would notice.
The employees will know I'm your sister-in-law.
Hey.
Are you wary of what someone here might think?
Ju Won. Are you dating someone at work?
Is that why you left home?
You said it was a secret that you're back,
so I won't tell Si Won we met.
You should go.
Okay.
Going up.
(Vice Chairman Seo Si Won)
Why did she call me?
Why say "see you later" from Paris?
She has a weird way of talking.
She only posts photos of what she eats in Paris.
What did she eat today?
(mijinlee)
She didn't post anything today.
She ate a pastry yesterday
and a macaron the day before.
What's this?
I never pressed "like."
Oh, this is so great.
It's so relaxing.
(mijinlee)
Did she go there to work or to eat?
This looks tasty. Where is this?
Oh, I don't care.
Is anyone there?
When did this get pressed?
She wouldn't have seen it.
How could she when she got over 10,000 likes?
Even if she did see it, she wouldn't know it was me.
I made an account with no posts just to spy on her.
Don't worry, Si Won.
Husband.
Hello.
What the
Shouldn't you be in France now? What are you doing here?
Didn't you hear me earlier? I said, "See you later."
I got everything done quicker than expected.
Oh, that was what you meant?
Why didn't you go straight home? Why are you here?
I wanted to give you this.
What is this?
You must've really wanted to try it
for you to have pressed the like button.
What? The like button? What are you talking about?
You don't think I'd know you've been stalking me on social media?
Social media? What do you mean?
You got a notification on your phone when I posted a new photo at home.
As soon as I saw your user ID,
I knew it was you and memorized it right away.
- Don't. - "West Cool."
Stop.
It literally means Seo Si Won.
From now on, if you ever want to know what I'm up to,
just ask me directly.
And if there's anything you want to eat,
just ask me to buy it for you.
Okay, I'll do that.
What are you waiting for? Try it.
It's really good.
Okay.
Thanks for this. I'm sure I'll like it.
Sure.
Your office gets a lot of sun.
This is a good photo spot.
What?
Ta-da!
Oh, my.
My gosh!
- It's so good! - So, this gets a pass?
Yes, totally.
- Uncle. - Yes.
Then we'll launch this clam soup on the 15th.
- Sounds good? - Sounds great!
- Nice. - Hey, what's this?
What's happening on this day?
Oh, it's Yoon Seo's birthday.
What? Yoon Seo's birthday?
Hey, tell her to come over on her birthday.
I'll make seaweed soup and japchae for her.
Don't bother.
She doesn't like it when people remember her birthday.
- She actually doesn't like it? - No, she doesn't.
Once, I gave her a gift, and she refused it.
Hey, it's how most people express their affection.
Come to think of it,
it doesn't really look like Yoon Seo has fully opened up to you,
but you're always worried about her. Why is that?
Let's be honest. It's not like you're her mother.
Why are you so good to her?
Because her parents were never good to her.
Hey, you're making me look like a jerk.
Anyway
Even if she doesn't have a happy birthday,
I hope she at least has a good day on her birthday.
Ha Yoon Seo.
(Happy birthday. Here is your birthday coupon.)
(Visit us within a week to get 30 percent off your purchase.)
Someone's working hard, bright and early.
I'm in charge of cleaning this week, so I have to leave early.
Eat your breakfast before you go to work.
Happy birthday.
Why are you here so early?
Why? I wanted to be the first one to wish you a happy birthday.
Let's eat this and go to work together.
I found a good spot where we can eat this.
I told you not to do anything for my birthday.
Come on.
You really didn't have to do anything.
I wanted to.
Last but not least
Don't tell me you made a heart with green peas.
You're so mean.
Sorry.
I even burned my finger while cooking the beans.
How could you be so mean to me?
Are you all right? Let me see.
Any other injuries?
Why did you suddenly decide to do this
Here's your coffee.
- Nice. - Here.
Here's your latte, Mr. Bae.
- Thank you. With 2 sleeves. - Yes, 2 sleeves.
- Ms. Ha. - Yes.
Thank you.
Today is Ha Yoon Seo Day.
Do everything you want, my Yoon Seo.
(Do everything you want, my Yoon Seo.)
Have you lost your mind?
I told you not to make it so obvious at work.
You'd better not do it again, seriously.
Okay, I'm sorry.
To make up for it, I'll give you my egg.
Fine. I'll forgive you since you gave me your egg.
But I told you to choose a fancier place.
Why this tteokbokki place?
You said I could do everything I wanted today.
I really wanted to have this tteokbokki here today.
Sorry to interrupt. Here's what you ordered.
You ordered something else? Nice.
What is this?
To be honest, I wanted to do this at a more romantic place,
but we came here.
This doesn't really suit the mood here,
but
please accept my gift.
My gosh.
Thank goodness no one will throw
such an embarrassing event for me this year.
No way.
I'm sorry.
Here's your coffee!
What? You bought us coffee?
No, Director Seo. I ran into him at the cafe, and he paid for these.
Here's your latte, Mr. Bae.
Here's your Americano, Ms. Ha.
This cappuccino is for me!
Enjoy your coffee.
Wishing you a very happy day.
"May your day be filled with amazing things like cappuccino foam."
"Thank you. Please visit us again."
What is this? Who wrote this?
The barista.
He was so nice.
He even gave me this cookie on the house!
Why are you here again, looking all depressed?
Is it difficult for you to play hard to get?
Hey, Ju Won.
Hang in there,
and you can make Yoon Seo all yours.
So stay strong, okay?
I know, but I'm really struggling to hold back today.
I wanted to make her really happy on her birthday this year.
What? Her birthday?
Are you crazy?
Don't tell me you're doing nothing for her birthday.
You told me I should let her go in order to
You fool! I want to grab you by the neck right now!
Even so, you have to do something for her birthday!
If you really do nothing, you'll never make her yours.
All right.
You've been focusing on playing hard to get,
so get her now. Today is your D-Day.
I'll get her.
- D-Day? - That's right.
First, make a reservation at the nicest restaurant you know.
Go all out. Book out the entire restaurant.
But there's nothing she hates more than men who show off their wealth.
- Really? - Yes.
Then what does Yoon Seo like?
Super spicy tteokbokki?
This is so frustrating.
Hey, make a reservation at the nicest restaurant in Seoul
and prepare a small gift that sparkles.
For example, a ring or
I have it ready.
Look at you. Hey!
Are you really going to be like this?
I wanted to buy something nice for my girlfriend's birthday.
What's so uncomfortable about it that you must return it?
Can't you just accept my gift?
It's just because
I'm not used to getting birthday presents.
Every family does things differently, you know.
Growing up, my family never celebrated birthdays.
It was just like any other day.
So, when someone says "Happy Birthday" to me,
I don't even know what to say.
Besides, I'm not sure if it's something to be celebrated.
What are you doing?
For me, out of the whole year,
today is the most special day.
Thank you for being born.
It was the first time
I'd heard someone say that to me.
Perhaps, that memory
was the reason I kept expecting
that something good might happen.
Expecting things, being jealous,
and feeling hurt.
Even more than I thought,
I was viscerally feeling his absence.
Yes, hello?
Hello, I'm calling from Jisan Hospital.
Okay, how may I help you?
Can I see you today?
In order to measure our marketing performance,
we should first set clear goals and expectations.
For example, increasing sales,
expanding brand awareness, and so on.
First, we should set such goals.
Marketing activities affect
the average customer retention rate
- My gosh. - Gosh, Director Seo!
How long has it been? I missed you!
Yes, hello.
Oh, Ms. Ha left early today.
Did something happen?
Well, I'm not sure.
But she left suddenly, looking upset.
What's going on?
Did I upset her by being selfish?
Even if that's the case, she'd never react emotionally like this.
- Thank you. - Thank you, sir.
I'm so embarrassed every time I see her face.
You don't think I'd know you've been stalking me on social media?
You got a notification on your phone
when I posted a new photo at home.
I hope
she doesn't think I'm like a pervert peeking at her.
Darn it. Stupid notifications!
Hey! Because of you, I kept checking her social media
and got caught stalking her on social media.
This is not good. I must punish you.
I'm turning all notifications off.
(mijinlee)
(Posts)
Hey, you.
Did you have dinner?
What is this?
(1,045 Likes, That's cute.)
You promised me that you'd never post my pictures on social media.
Right, I did.
But there are rumours going around again
that we're staying married just for show.
They'll soon say we're getting a divorce
Then you should've given me a heads-up.
So, she visited me with the macarons to take that picture.
To post a picture like that just to stop such rumours.
I thought she genuinely wanted me to try it.
Darn it.
People will make fun of me like crazy again.
Just like what happened with that crying selfie.
(1,045 Likes, That's cute.)
What?
(- How cute. - That's adorable.)
What's with this reaction?
(- He looks like a macaron model. - I'll buy him a macaron store.)
(- He's so cute. - He's rich too.)
(- I'll buy you 10 macarons. - I want to eat macarons.)
(- He's adorable. - He's so handsome.)
What?
My gosh.
They feel deprived because of me?
Oh, no. That is my fault.
Reflect on yourself, Si Won.
What is this?
Why is everyone saying I'm cute?
I'm charismatic.
I'm really something, aren't I?
"The epitome of handsome."
"Handsome" is good.
Take a screenshot.
(Post not found)
What? Where did it go?
What?
Hey.
I'm sorry.
What?
I didn't know you'd be so upset.
I deleted the photo, so don't worry. Good night.
Hey, wait
I haven't read the new comments yet.
(mijinlee)
(- He's so cute. - He's hot.)
The picture suddenly got deleted.
It must've made many people sad.
Pour me one too.
(- He's hot. - Share more pictures of your life!)
Had I known you'd take screenshots of the comments,
I wouldn't have deleted the post.
Well
I've never experienced a reaction like this,
so I thought it was kind of cool. That's why I did this.
Then how about we take a picture together and post it?
Gosh, no. What are you talking about?
Really?
All right, then.
I should have a glass of wine.
Today,
I should post this.
Oh, you're in the frame.
I did it because it was cute.
What?
Earlier, I was flustered, so I used the rumours as an excuse.
But I posted that picture because I thought it was cute.
Oh, that
Really?
I'm sorry for overreacting and getting angry like that earlier.
I was quite touched, thinking you visited me
to give me those macarons.
Thinking that you actually came to see me to take that picture
hurt my feelings.
- I see. - Yes.
Then would it be okay to post your pictures from time to time?
Gosh.
Well, we are married.
I can't say no when you're asking me so sincerely.
I respect you. Right.
Then, do you want to take a photo together?
Gosh, sure. If you want to.
Two, three.
You're good.
It's my first time doing something like this.
(Posts)
Gosh, seeing us like this, we really look like a married couple.
I think we look good together too.

My husband keeps acting cute.
So cute.
(Seo Ju Won)
This is Jisan Hospital.
Yes, why did the hospital call me?
Are you perhaps Ms. Kim Hee Sook's daughter, Ms. Ha Yoon Seo?
We have something to discuss with you
regarding your mother's funeral.
Ms. Kim Hee Sook
spent about three years here from heart failure,
and she passed away yesterday.
It was my fourth year in college
when I last saw my mom.
She called me saying my father had died.
He drove after getting drunk
and had been sued by the victim.
But he had died on the spot while drunk driving again.
It was a death befitting that man.
And in order to handle the mess that man had created,
I saw the face I never wanted to see again in my life.
That person, who said she was my mom,
would ignore me whenever I'd get beaten up.
Is it tasty?
Why?
I can't even run away because of you kids!
Why should I have to live like this?
Seriously!
- Why? - It's okay.
She would drink like Father
and cry like a monster.
Darn it.
Hey.
You unlucky brat.
Please take this punk and get out of my life.
Just disappear!
Disappear!
Why
did you come to see me?
He was still your father.
You should say goodbye to him one last time.
That's the duty of a child.
Aren't you graduating soon?
Then, you'll get a job and all.
You have to pay back the debt your dad racked up.
Stop wandering about and come back.
You can't break off the connection of family.
"The connection of family?"
If the relationship between parents and children
really is a connection made from the skies above as they say,
I'll just be punished by the skies.
To me, my family
is Ji Seok,
and no one else.
Darn it.
All right.
Say everything you want to say.
So, how do you feel?
I don't know.
Ever since I left home,
I've been through so much hardship.
Maybe that's why.
I know that I'll be punished for this,
but I'm not sad at all.
I won't go to that man's funeral.
And I won't ever answer
my mom's call again.
Why did it have to be today?
Stop drinking.
You might collapse at this rate.
Mr. Lee, how are you here?
I was on my way out from a meeting with the PR team.
Then, I saw a sad woman by the window.
I'll have a bottle of soju and a glass, please.
Okay.
What is it about?
She's dead.
Pardon?
If she was going to leave like this, she should've been nice to her kids.
Did I ask for something huge?
I just
wanted her to say one thing.
"I'm sorry."
Was that so hard to say?
Are you crying?
No.
I don't have any tears to shed
for someone like her.
Yoon Seo.
Is something wrong?
I'm worried. Please answer me.
Why do I always act like such a fool?
I said I wouldn't live with regrets
and endured everything until now with gritted teeth.
But I'm swayed so much because the person I despised is dead.
Actually,
after hearing about your father,
I was surprised.
It was just like my story.
My father was violent too,
and my mom was just a bystander.
So, I left home with my brother,
and we lived without knowing how the other was doing.
But today,
I heard the news that
the person called my mom had passed away.
Since something bad happened,
my heart must be growing weaker.
I keep thinking of that guy.
He was
the first person to tell me
that he was glad I had been born.
I keep thinking of him.
It's annoying.
(Seo Ju Won)
(Manager Ha Yoon Seo)
Hey, Yoon Seo.
This is Lee Sung Min.
Why are you calling me on Yoon Seo's phone?
I know it's not fun for another man to call you
on your ex-girlfriend's phone,
but is it really necessary to be so hostile toward me?
Explain what the situation is.
Ms. Ha fell asleep after drinking.
We're near the office. Come and get her quickly.
If you don't want to, you don't have to.
You seemed to have so many lingering feelings for her
that I called you out of courtesy.
- I'll assume it's over between - Ten minutes.
Wait. I'll be right there.
Don't look at me like that.
I felt so bad for her today
that I thought it would be better for you to be by her side.
That was why I made the huge decision to call you.
Has something happened to Yoon Seo?
Well
I don't think I should be telling you about that.
You should ask her yourself when she wakes up.
You're both still pining for each other,
so why did you break up?
I don't think it's any of your business.
Then, do a good job yourself.
What happened?
It just happened.
I came after getting a call.
There's only ten minutes left.
What?
I'm sorry
for making you spend a day like this.
I was wrong
about everything.
You don't have to feel sorry.
I think it's right for us to keep our distance and grow apart.
This won't happen again.
Then, I'll be going.
Are you okay?
Can I ask you what's going on?
You don't have to mind.
If I call you again from now on, just don't answer it.
You can just ignore it. No.
Please ignore it.
How can I not mind?
How could I not answer your call?
What were you doing until now?
You don't even know how dangerous this world is.
You're always drinking these days.
Still, it's your birthday.
I know you don't care about celebrating,
but I thought we'd eat together, at least.
Hang on. Let me get you some honey water.
Ji Seok.
Why? Don't you want honey water?
Today, I got a call.
What call?
Mom
had been in a convalescent hospital.
Then, her illness got worse.
She passed away yesterday morning.
- Her funeral - So?
So what do you want me to do?
Should we go and cry for her?
Should we go and dress for mourning and greet guests?
- Ji Seok. - Yoon Seo.
I still remember that woman choking you.
- What? - I also remember her
grabbing you and crying every night,
pushing and hitting you, and cursing at us to get out.
When I cried from hunger,
you had made porridge for me with the leftover rice.
Then, that woman
cursed at you to go make money if you had time to take care of me.
You fed me porridge while covering my ears in case I heard.
Why do you
Why do you still remember that? Why?
What, is she a parent just because she gave birth to us?
I have no feelings for that woman!
To me, my parent is
To me, my family is no one else but you.
You're my mom and my dad.
I don't need anyone else.
I never thought I was lacking anything.
Did you feel
you were lacking something because you only had me?
It's not like that.
Then, don't go.
Neither of us
have to go.
Are you going to work?
Yes.
I'll be going.
Oh, yes. Don't worry.
Yes, Ms. Ha.
Yes, got it. Bye.
What's this? What's going on?
Why? What did she say?
Ms. Ha is taking a day off.
What?
Hello, Director Seo.
Good morning.
What brings you here so early in the morning?
Well
Ms. Ha is taking a day off?
Oh, yes. Well
Has something happened to Yoon Seo?
I don't think I should be telling you about that.
You should ask her yourself when she wakes up.
Yes, who's speaking?
(Funeral Center)
Why did I come here?
(Rest in peace.)
(The Gracious Lord Church)
(Kim Hee Sook, Son, Ha Ji Seok, Daughter, Ha Yoon Seo)
(Kim Hee Sook, Son, Ha Ji Seok, Daughter, Ha Yoon Seo)
I mean, even if that's the case,
how could they not even come to their mother's funeral?
It sounded like they didn't even know she was in the hospital.
What is this world coming to?
I mean, I told her that her mother had died, but she just hung up.
I heard she had a son too, besides the daughter you talked to.
Both of them will be punished by the skies.
Goodness.
How did you know and come here?
Ji Seok called me.
To be by your side.
Yoon Seo.
Yoon Seo.
Let go of me!
Why are you here?
Who are you to come all the way here and interfere?
- Yoon Seo. - I don't know how much you heard,
but not all families are alike.
And I don't think of that woman
as my mom.
I'm not sad at all.
So, leave.
Leave!
Then, why are you crying?
You say you're not sad.
I don't know.
I don't know.
It was my first time I cried like that in my life.
Even when I first left home
and struggled to find a room to stay in
Even when I was in pain because there was much I could do
for Ji Seok,
- I never cried. - It's okay.
I had lived my life without having a decent birthday celebration,
but I never cried.
But as he gently patted me on the back
with his eyes looking like they were in more pain than me,
I felt so overwhelmed with sorrow
that I crumbled.
Yoon Seo, let's get married.
What? You proposed to her?
But I'm not going to rush her.
I'm going to wait for her for as long as it takes.
If you keep doing this, Ha Yoon Seo
will never work here or anywhere else.
Do you want to leave her with nowhere to go because of you?
I suddenly have to go to Spain. I'm leaving now.
Seo Ju Won!
I'm going to cling on to you
from now on.
