Mom?
Mom, just a second.
I still have something to say.
Mom, please.
Mom.
Mom?
Mom!
Mom!
Mom...
Mom, can you hear me?
Mom, you can't leave me like this.
You should've at least let me say goodbye.
Mom, please don't go. Hear what I have to say.
Mom, I'm so sorry.
Mom, I'm sorry for speaking that way to you.
I said I owed you.
Would you have put it that way...
if I were your birth mother?
Yes, I would've.
You're the one...
who has never thought of me as more than your adoptive daughter.
You ungrateful brat!
Mom, I'm so sorry.
Mom, I loved being your daughter.
Thank you so much.
That's what I wanted to tell you.
Doctor, my mom...
Mom...
Mom.
Grandma.
Mom.
Mi Rae, my mom...
Mom, no...
Mom.
(It's Beautiful Now)
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
Welcome, guys.
Having wine with you guys couldn't be more awkward.
It's even worse for me.
I can't believe you two are getting married.
That's no way to talk to your sister-in-law.
- She's right.
- What the...
It's as if someone poured olive oil down my throat.
As if I care about you.
Soo Jae, can I get you anything?
No, I'm good.
He's more of a beer guy.
That we have. Would you like some?
Yoon Jae, I like wine just as much.
Don't act like you know me.
You know, once I marry...
And this goes to you as well, Hyun Jae.
I'll now be the man of the house.
It means you should treat me with respect.
- Yoon Jae.
- Yes?
You sound old-fashioned.
Hae Jun, I find you admirable.
I liked you the moment I saw you too.
Here's to a good relationship.
Of course.
He seems to be a favorite among older women.
No wonder he's Mom's favorite.
The one I like the most is you.
You're the one I'm marrying.
Nice.
See?
Hey.
Hello?
Mi Rae?
Right.
Are you crying?
Where are you right now?
Soo Jae,
is there anything you want when we get married?
Why would I receive anything?
Shouldn't I be the one giving you a wedding gift instead?
The bride is supposed to prepare dowry gifts.
I'm fine.
I should get going.
Where are you going?
I need to go to Mi Rae. I'll see you later.
Wait...
- Mi Rae?
- It's his girlfriend.
I should get going too.
Why? You can stay a little longer.
I have to go out early tomorrow morning.
What about you?
I should go then.
Are you leaving?
Yes. I should go.
Can I talk to you for a moment?
Please finish your food.
Are you really going home? Will you leave me alone?
I want to stay here with you, but I have no choice.
We're not married yet.
We're getting married in two weeks. Why can't you stay?
My parents wouldn't like it. And Soo Jae is here.
There are so many different sides to you.
You're a dolt and an oldie.
I can put up with a dolt because he's cute,
but I can't put up with an oldie.
Yoon Jae.
Let's go.
Are you leaving?
Yes. I should get going first. You can come later.
Okay.
Hae Jun, I guess I'll see you at your wedding then.
I guess so.
- Bye.
- Bye. Go home safely.
You can come and visit me anytime.
I will remember that.
Bye.
All right. Bye.
I guess Soo Jae doesn't overstay his welcome.
He's better than you.
- Are you serious?
- No.
I just can't see my mom cry.
Your grandma...
She passed away.
I feel bad for my grandma,
and I'm so sorry for Mom too.
Where is your mom?
Well...
She's with Jung Hoo...
and Dad.
When I meet Hae Jun tomorrow, I'll ask her what we need.
And we need to talk about the dowry gifts.
We don't need any dowry gifts.
I mean, Hae Jun even has her own house.
This has nothing to do with her house.
And I don't want any dowry gifts either.
But I should at least tell her that we don't need dowry gifts.
We can prepare some gifts for Aunt's family.
We got the bedding when So Ra got married.
So we should prepare something worth just as much.
I'm home.
They're home. Soo Jae.
- What?
- Where's Yoon Jae?
He's at Hae Jun's.
- At Hae Jun's?
- Yes.
Mom, now you should think that that's where he lives.
You have to accept that.
You should accept that, Kyung Ae.
Let's say we don't...
exchange any unnecessary gifts.
But there are things we still need to prepare.
Wedding rings.
Right. We should go pick out our wedding rings.
Do you have a specific design in mind?
Something big, glittering, and expensive.
With a one-carat diamond.
Does synthetic diamond count?
That's not so expensive.
No, that's fake.
No, it has the same composition, refractive index, dispersion,
and hardness as natural diamonds.
I can tell you're so into natural science.
They are technically the same, except for their price.
But what we can see is the same.
Anyway, I don't like it.
Let's just...
go with simple rings. The round ones.
That means eternity.
Why did you talk about diamonds when you wanted a simple ring?
Everyone wants diamonds, so I just talked about it.
Don't you want a designer bag?
Will you buy me one?
Yes. But not now. Maybe later.
Forget it. I have many bags.
You know I'm a competent woman,
so all I want is that you don't ask me for money.
I can give you some money if you want.
When we decided to get married,
you said all you cared about was love.
That made me want to give you more money.
So I made some investments.
Investment? In what?
What do you think?
Of course, in stocks.
So what stocks did you buy?
Some large capital stocks and KOSDAQ.
That sounds like a lot.
It's fine as long as you don't lose my money.
Why would I lose your money? Seriously, I'll give you money.
When you say you will give me more money,
that does feel good.
- Are you serious?
- Of course, I am.
We'll be rich.
- Really?
- Sure.
Hey, Hae Jun.
Hey. Did you hear that Mi Rae's grandmother passed away?
Sure. I'm on my way to the funeral.
You should've told me yesterday.
I just heard about it...
when I called Mi Rae to talk about my wedding dress.
Sorry. I was tied up with something else.
I'll go to the funeral in the evening.
I should have lunch with Mother.
Okay.
You left late last night. Why did you come again?
I should come every day.
Thank you.
Hae Jun will come later in the evening.
We talked on the phone.
She said I should've called her sooner.
I was grateful to hear that.
Your mom looked exhausted,
so I brought some jujube tea and schizandra tea for her.
Thank you for coming.
Show them the way.
Thank again you for coming.
Get some rest.
Mi Rae, you should get some rest too.
Aren't you hungry?
No, I'm fine.
- What about you?
- I'm okay.
Are you all right?
- Mother.
- Hey.
Mother, you've become a lot more beautiful than before.
Gosh, what are you saying?
- Mother, please get in.
- Okay.
Which floor is the restaurant?
I pressed the button already.
Door closing.
Mother, doesn't this remind you...
of the time when we first met?
Why would you bring that up?
I was really terrified.
You know this is a confined space.
Gosh, will you move over a little?
No. I want to stand close to you.
We should get over the elevator.
No. You're being scary again.
And why are you in black today?
You look like the Grim Reaper.
Have you seen a pretty Grim Reaper like me?
I need to be at a funeral today.
A funeral?
Yes. A close friend of mine just lost her grandmother.
You can't go to a funeral.
Mother, aren't you afraid of me anymore?
The funeral made me get over the elevator.
You can't go there.
Why not?
You're not supposed to attend a funeral before your wedding.
Why is that?
I've heard that pregnant women shouldn't attend funerals,
but I didn't know that applied to future brides.
Future brides are best off not doing anything...
that could be bad.
If your mother had been alive, she'd have told you not to go.
I understand.
The wedding is so close.
I didn't think Yoon Jae would marry so soon after our families met.
It's something that must happen. I'm glad it'll be sooner than later.
Pass this to your brother and his wife.
It's money for the dowry gifts.
We won't ask for anything in return.
Yoon Jae will move in with you,
so we don't have to buy him an apartment.
You two said you'd take care of everything.
But as the groom's mom, I feel bad.
My son's getting married, and I want to give him something.
Tell me what you need.
Then...
love me.
What?
I don't think it's right...
to ask anyone's parents for anything when we're marrying in our 40s.
Grandpa.
Hey.
Your mom left to see Hae Jun.
I know.
When will the wedding invitations come out?
I have friends to hand them out to.
They'll be out soon.
Here.
I told you...
to spend it.
We decided to only buy rings.
Keep it and spend it in emergencies.
Why would I need emergency funds?
Just keep it, even if you don't need it.
I should give you money now.
You must really be growing up.
Use this.
Thank you.
You seem to give out bright energy.
Shall we get something sweet when we're done?
Two orders of sweet injeolmi, two red velvets,
and two orders of pure milk.
Two orders of sweet injeolmi.
Why won't your old boss visit?
Didn't he say he'd visit?
He must be busy.
Didn't he say he wanted to send someone a gift?
When will he send the gift?
Give him a call.
I don't think that's right.
Right? That's too much, isn't it?
Don't worry too much.
Star Macarons will do great.
There's no way it can't.
I'll work harder on marketing and developing new products.
You're the best.
(Lee Soo Jae)
(Deliveries only today.)
Hey, I'm outside your store.
Are you closed today?
Yes, we only do deliveries today.
Oh, I see.
I brought a workmate to let him taste your macarons.
Give me a moment.
I'll give you a few as an opening gift.
No, we'll go somewhere else.
Saet Byul.
You should make customers pay, no matter how close you are to them.
Don't hang out with freeloaders.
Let's go somewhere else.
(Star Macarons)
- Sorry.
- Don't bother.
Let's go somewhere else.
Here you go.
Where's the delivery guy?
He should be here soon.
So will the guy to deliver this too.
- Yu Na.
- Yes?
Would seeing Soo Jae make you feel uncomfortable?
He's my friend too,
and he could come by.
Right.
I need to tell him not to come if you feel uncomfortable.
I'll get out of the way if you give me a heads-up.
I can't cause you a loss.
And Soo Jae shouldn't suffer either.
- Dad.
- Hi.
What are you doing? Are you cooking ramyeon?
- Do you want some too?
- I'll make it.
Yoon Jae.
Mom, we're in here.
What are you doing?
I was about to cook ramyeon, and he offered to cook for me.
How did your lunch appointment go?
I offered her the money,
but she said she didn't need anything else.
She's quite direct and doesn't hold a grudge.
That's what she's like.
The more you get to know her, the more she grows on you.
I was wary of her at first, just like you.
But once you realize her charms,
you'll never be free.
Stop it. I feel like retaliating.
You won't marry her empty-handed, will you?
Even I don't think that's right.
I'm not empty-handed. I have something.
My debt.
Darn you!
He just can't stop teasing you.
What a nuisance.
Why did it fall even further?
This is bad. What should I do?
Hae Jun.
Did you go to the funeral?
I couldn't go because your mother said...
I shouldn't go there before my wedding.
But I feel guilty.
I see why you feel bad,
but do as my mom says this time.
Comfort Mi Rae after the funeral.
She's in a great mood right now.
- Is she?
- Yes.
She just got back from seeing you,
and she said you were direct and didn't hold a grudge.
So I added a little more to get her to like you better.
That you're charming.
Well done.
Aren't you proud?
I want to do even better now.
Yoon Jae.
- Can you come outside?
- Okay.
I'll call you again later.
Yes, Dad?
Sorry. I was supposed to do the cooking.
What's all this?
I got it out to drink with you.
You came home today, but you might not tomorrow.
I'll sleep here until I get married.
You don't have to. Do whatever you want.
Sit down.
This looks amazing.
I wanted to...
have a drink with you at home...
before you got married.
You must be happy and excited,
but I feel a bit upset.
It's not like we'll never see each other again. We will.
I'll come by often.
You were my first,
so I was an inexperienced dad.
Despite being the eldest,
you didn't suppress your brothers.
And I think that's why you three got along well.
That was because I'm selfish.
It takes time and effort to get involved with them.
All human beings are selfish.
I'll pour you one.
Let me pour yours.
Okay.
Let's drink.
Cheers.
Having you as my son...
has been a treat.
So thank you.
- Let's drink.
- Sure.
Take care, Mom.
Rest well with Dad.
(Jin Tae Hyun, Jung Mi Young)
(Jin Tae Hyun, Jung Mi Young)
(Jung Mi Young)
We'll come by often, Mother and Father.
You actually came.
I wanted to see you before I go.
Right.
Thank you for staying with us throughout the funeral.
Thank you.
We'll be heading home. What about you?
I need to head to the office.
I see.
I'll call you later.
- Go ahead.
- Sure.
Hey.
Good morning... Oh, wait. Good afternoon, everyone.
- Hey.
- Hey, Sung Soo.
Let me see.
You seem tired.
That reminds me.
Ms. Sim requested that you stop by her office when you got in.
(CEO Sim Hae Jun)
Come in.
Ms. Sim.
Did you just get in?
Gosh.
You attended the funeral for three whole days?
Yes.
Goodness.
You must be exhausted.
Don't you have a lot of work to get through?
Yes, I pushed everything back, so it's going to be a long day.
Anyway, were you at the funeral? I don't think I saw you.
I was going to go,
but I didn't because your mother told me not to.
- My mom?
- Yes.
She said it was a bad sign for a future bride to be there.
I can't believe I did this to Mi Rae.
It's all right. I was there for her, remember?
We agreed to meet today to discuss my wedding dress.
What do I tell her?
Come in.
My gosh, what a surprise.
- Hello.
- Yes, hello.
We meet again thanks to you working here.
I guess so. I'll give you the room, then.
Right.
Gosh, please have a seat.
He seems tired.
Well, his girlfriend's grandmother recently passed away,
so he attended the funeral for three whole days.
His girlfriend is a good friend of mine,
but Yoon Jae's mother said...
that a future bride shouldn't attend funerals.
So I couldn't be there for her.
And she's right.
Hold on. Will Yoon Jae's brother be at your wedding?
I don't think he should attend the ceremony.
It's all a superstition.
You're marrying at an older age...
and should steer clear from anything that can bring bad luck.
Your brother's worried sick, you know.
I honestly don't get it.
Why did my decision to marry suddenly make him all brotherly?
Well, we speak from experience.
I only put up with your brother because he's my kids' father.
It must be the same for him as well.
Even if you have a successful career,
it won't matter once you marry Dr. Yoon.
"Did you cook for my son? When will you have children?"
Yoon Jae and I will buy our meals rather than cook.
He's only playing along because you haven't tied the knot yet.
Let's face it. He's practically marrying you for free.
And for that alone, he should serve you like a queen.
If you're going to say those things, I won't see you until the wedding.
I honestly wouldn't mind,
but your brother is being persistent.
I'll tag along just to the wedding dress shop.
Soo Jung cried all the way to the charnel house.
Don't you find it hard to cry though when you're really sad?
Some are like that way and some are not.
Don't talk like you know everything when you don't.
We're home.
They must be home.
Let's see if Soo Jung...
actually expresses her gratitude to you.
Why should she thank me?
You only had to be at the funeral once,
but you stayed until the casket left.
She said she'd wait for you to forgive her.
So she should do that by actually being nice to you.
Those kinds of things you always remember.
If you had studied with that brain of yours,
you would've gotten into a top university.
Grandma.
We're home.
Right. Did you properly send her off?
Yes, her remains were placed next to grandpa's.
Are you feeling all right?
I'm fine, of course.
You stopped by the funeral home at an early hour.
Mom is worried about your health.
What is your Mom up to?
She went to her room.
She couldn't sleep,
so the doctor prescribed her some sleeping aids.
Shouldn't you take the sleeping pills?
I think it'll be better to take them before sleeping.
No, I don't think I'll be going to sleep anyway.
Mom, here you go.
She's not going to take them right now.
It has been hard on you two, hasn't it?
Not really. Mom's the one who had to endure so much.
I was grateful that Hyun Jae was there.
Me too. He came by every day which wasn't easy...
and kept us company.
Why don't you invite him over for dinner the following weekend?
That sounds like a good idea.
Are you sure, Mom?
Yes.
I should rather stay busy.
Not doing anything will only make me miss her more.
All right. I'll ask Hyun Jae.
Mom invited you over for dinner the following weekend.
I guess she was grateful that you were there at the funeral.
(Missing Persons' Families Support Center)
Gosh, Mr. Lee.
It's been a while since you were here.
My eldest grandson is getting married.
Congratulations, sir.
Did the joyful event have you miss your daughter?
I think of her all the time.
Anyway, this is for you.
Thank you.
Has there been word from the National Forensic Service?
If there had been, we would've called right away.
It might be better not to think about her.
If only I could.
Anyway, have a good day.
Thank you, sir.
(Missing Persons' Families Support Center)
Min Ho, is that you?
I suddenly missed you which is why I called.
Where are you?
Downtown.
- By yourself?
- Yes.
Min Ho,
I'm so happy to see Yoon Jae finally marry.
Am I allowed to be happy though...
when I don't even know where my own daughter is?
What are you up to?
I'm sorting out the dinnerware.
Why do you even want to do such a thing?
Leave if you're not going to help.
I'll put in a good word for you with my mom.
It's not your fault that you were adopted.
Just the fact that you lied about it.
Why would you do that for me?
It's like I said.
Unless you get in my way, I will have no hard feelings.
The fact that you take care of my mom...
does make my life easier.
When will you leave?
Soon.
It doesn't seem like Mom will sell the building anytime soon.
What about the money you took from her last time?
Why do you need her to sell her building?
I spent it all, of course.
My husband brings home a salary.
The money he earns is limited...
but my spending habit isn't.
On top of that, he'll be retiring soon.
Back in the day, I loved that he was predictable,
but I'm sick of it now.
He's a scrooge.
- You're lucky.
- How so?
Who knew that Jin Heon's gimbap business would take off?
Life has taught me...
that luck trumps all.
What does he have that I don't?
Even his grades were worse than mine.
He's kind.
What about me?
Are you saying I'm not?
I'll leave you to answer that yourself.
This is exactly why I don't want to be nice to you.
Just consider how lucky your life has been.
You were adopted by generous parents...
and married a wealthy man...
who treats you like a princess.
Was I lucky to have been abandoned by my parents?
Think before you speak, will you?
I can never have the last word with her.
Gosh.
What is she up to?
She's cleaning the dinnerware.
Mom, I'll be heading back to Australia soon.
Is there anything you'd like to give me?
Like what?
What do you do with the rent you receive?
I spend it, of course.
Maybe I should get divorced and live with you?
Are you kidding me?
Don't worry. I wouldn't dare to live with you.
It would never get boring if we lived together...
with all the arguing.
That's true.
I'm home.
That's Jin Heon. Why is he home already?
Wait, are you cooking?
Yes.
You should rest, you know.
I bought some sushi for you.
It's better to stay busy.
Let your mom have it.
What about you?
I'm sorry for not showing up at the funeral.
It's all right, Hae Jun.
It really isn't.
Here.
Please take it. Formalities shouldn't be skipped.
Thank you.
Now, why don't you try on some dresses?
Maybe I should.
It's a feminine and elegant long-sleeved bell-line dress.
The beaded embroidery...
and the low-cut neckline are the highlighted features.
I think you look better in the other dress.
Yoon Jae, what about you?
What?
Well, I think you look beautiful in everything.
You know all the right answers, don't you?
This must be why you fell for him.
I'll try on the one I had on earlier.
By the way, Hae Jun.
I've asked around,
and people have been telling me that you shouldn't attend a wedding...
after attending a funeral.
Seriously?
I'm sorry to say this,
but maybe Yoon Jae's brother shouldn't attend the wedding.
Like I said, it's only a superstition.
Actually, it's custom.
Don't do anything that could bring you any kind of bad luck.
Mi Rae, please don't be upset by what she said.
It's only a superstition that I don't believe in.
She said it can bring bad luck, so I can't help but be worried.
There's really no need for that.
I'll ask my elders too.
I want to congratulate you on your marriage more than anyone,
but I don't want to do anything that could be frowned upon.
By the way, where did Kyung Chul go?
He went out for a walk.
My goodness. On his own?
Why didn't he take me with him?
Hey, Hyun Jae.
Mom,
should you attend a wedding if a family member passed away?
It's better to stay away if the funeral was recent.
Is that the case with someone you know?
What about going to a wedding after attending a funeral?
I was recently at one.
You were recently at a funeral?
How could you when Yoon Jae's about to marry?
You should've been more careful.
Why do people believe such things?
Come home immediately.
It won't take long. We need to talk.
- Was he recently at a funeral?
- It seems that way.
Gosh, that's terrible.
We can perform an exorcism.
Unbelievable.
Get away from him!
Hold on a second.
Go away from him!
What on earth? This is the 21st century, you know.
No matter what century we're in,
we shouldn't do anything that can bring bad luck.
Mother, over to that side.
Go away.
There you go.
Great Aunt Kyung Soon, please.
This must be done.
Gosh. That was unbelievable.
Hyun Jae.
Whose funeral were you at?
I stopped Hae Jun from attending one, you know.
Please know that...
I'm absolutely flustered by what just happened.
(Star Macarons)
Welcome.
Hello.
Mr. Hyun!
Have you been well?
I have. What about you?
It hasn't been that great for me.
How's your grandmother? Is she feeling better?
I wanted to ask how she was doing,
but I didn't want to be out of line.
There isn't any reason for you to overthink it, you know.
I guess you're right.
I've been trying harder not to overthink things recently.
Anyway, what can I get you?
I'll take three random packs and the strawberry yogurt pack.
My sister enjoyed the strawberry yogurt macarons,
so I'm getting them for my mom.
Why would you buy it for your mom when your sister liked it?
My mom has been feeling down lately.
My grandmother passed away.
Mom.
Hey.
Were you thinking of Grandma?
Yes.
I still can't believe it.
It feels like she will call me...
and ask if I had dinner.
You should go have dinner.
I want to eat with you.
You don't have to do this.
I promised Grandma that I would take good care of you.
When did you make such a promise?
I told her when she was moved to the ICU.
This ordeal with Grandmother and Aunt has enlightened me.
I finally understand...
why you were worried about me being swept away by Hyun Jae.
Marriage is becoming a family with each other.
Getting married and becoming a family...
can't be a key to everything.
There can always be another problem.
But I believe you will be different from me.
Actually, Hyun Jae seems like a nice guy.
He's responsible and thoughtful.
Above all things, I can tell he cares a lot about you.
How did you know that?
He's being nice to me because he cares about you.
It was hard eating anything during the funeral,
but after having Hyun Jae's jujube tea,
I felt much better.
I was thankful for that.
It's so nice to have a decent meal after a long time.
I like sushi better.
By the way, why isn't Soo Jung eating?
Is she avoiding Mom?
Can't you just stay quiet while you eat?
I'm the only one you can look down on, right?
You are nothing like this to your kids.
Isn't Mi Rae home? Why isn't she eating?
I guess she's with her mom.
You know she sticks to her mom all the time.
And it's getting even worse.
This is so good.
Do people still believe that these days?
So you know what it is.
They say attending a funeral before a wedding brings bad luck.
Yes. I'm aware of that.
And I can understand why they say such a thing.
But I don't follow it.
I don't want that anxiety to get in my way.
Then do you think I can go to the wedding?
Ask Ms. Sim. You should let her decide.
We never know what will happen in life.
You don't have to do anything that can earn someone's grudge.
Okay.
It's so good to have Mother's kimchi.
I know. It tastes good, right?
I wish we had more of her side dishes.
Hi, Mi Rae.
- What are you doing?
- I'm eating.
Hae Jun, I'm afraid I can't go to your wedding.
I know it's superstition,
but I don't want to do anything that might bring you bad luck.
Don't be like that.
You know I really like you, right?
I can't make it to your wedding, but I'll do anything to help you.
Okay. I'll talk to you again later.
Bye.
What?
Mi Rae is not coming to our wedding.
It's been a while.
Nice to meet you. What brings you by?
"What brings you by?"
Do I need a reason to come to see you?
We don't need a reason to see each other.
I know.
How is your mom doing?
She's trying to keep herself busy.
She says she feels better when she's occupied.
I understand.
Some people overcome their sorrow like that.
I was surprised that she invited me over.
Why?
I don't think I did anything to deserve all that.
You were there for my family for three whole days.
It made me realize...
that just being there for someone means a lot.
And I decided I would attend funerals no matter what.
I was really grateful to those who came to the funeral.
You're right.
Do you want to hear something funny?
You asked about going to a wedding after attending a funeral,
so I called my mom.
And she told me to come home right away.
So I stopped by her place.
Then I got salt thrown all over me.
Gosh, that was crazy.
Why do parents worry about things like that?
Did you tell her that you came to my grandma's funeral?
I didn't tell her whose funeral it was.
Speaking of which,
I'm not going to the wedding.
Even if it's superstition,
I don't want to do anything that might bring Hae Jun bad luck.
Then I'm not going either.
No, that's not right.
No, that's not right.
I'll go if you go, and I won't go if you don't.
End of discussion.
I'm going shopping with Mom.
Okay. Have fun.
I'm going back to Australia in two days.
I have nothing to do here.
And Mom is not selling the building anytime soon.
Okay.
Drive me to the airport. I have a lot of luggage.
And Jin Heon wouldn't even look at me.
Let's go.
What are you doing here?
I was about to go in.
I know you've been avoiding me.
I'm just trying not to make you uncomfortable.
See you.
I can't believe this.
You can't believe it? So what?
You know I'm all you have.
And you've done enough to make your point.
You will miss me a lot once I go back to Australia.
Are you sure you can put up with her?
You sound like you are really mad at her,
but you are gentle as a lamb when she's around.
Her mom had been bedridden in the hospital,
and she had just lost her mom.
What am I supposed to say to her?
I'm not an irrational beast.
Everyone in this family raises their voice only at me.
Mother, I'm sorry I'm late.
It's all right.
I know you're busy with work.
It must be hard for you to prepare for the wedding.
Thank you for understanding.
Are you feeling all right? Aren't you tired?
Yes, I'm fine.
Well... Mother.
Yes?
The thing is,
I took your advice and didn't attend the funeral.
I'm glad you didn't.
But...
it weighed heavy on my mind for days.
She is my close friend,
but I couldn't be there for her when she had a hard time.
I believe she will understand you.
I know.
She will understand me,
but I was disappointed in myself.
So...
I don't want to repeat the same mistake this time.
I could've invited her to my wedding without telling you.
But that's not what I want to do.
I don't want to lie to you.
Can I...
invite her to my wedding?
Yoon Jae and I will be happy.
Things can happen in life.
But we will work things out and get through them.
Can I have your permission?
That was...
quite touching.
Thank you, Mother.
Hae Jun.
How's this?
I won't buy a bag. I have enough already.
I know that. But you like it, don't you?
Yes, I do.
But I love this dress too.
Don't you need new clothes to wear on your honeymoon?
A T-shirt at least.
We're not going on a honeymoon.
You can still wear it at the hotel.
Mi Rae.
I want you to be at my wedding.
I want to be there too.
But I don't want to do anything that might inconvenience you...
even the slightest.
Mi Rae.
Hae Jun.
Are customs more important than our friendship?
Won't there be more hardships and sad events on the way?
There will be.
Come and bless me.
I want to be blessed lots and lots at my wedding.
I will bless you lots and lots even if I'm not at the wedding.
Catch the bouquet.
None of my friends are available.
Can you still not come?
Can you not?
- Well?
- What?
You're going to catch Hae Jun's bouquet?
Yes.
Does that mean we'll both be at my brother's wedding?
Yes.
Great.
All you evil spirits, get out of our lives.
Hyun Jae and Mi Rae's on the way.
- Yes.
- Yes.
Are you pleased that I'm leaving?
Why would I be pleased?
I'd prefer to see you around.
Even though I kept asking you for money?
I hate that when you're around.
But once you leave, I forget about that...
and only remember our shopping trips and food adventures.
You are my mom after all.
What am I if not your mom?
I was so scared of you growing up.
Now you're not scary at all.
Is it because I'm older...
or because you are weaker?
It won't be enough for a car, but I'll give you some money.
Can you give me a lot while you're at it?
Why would I give you a lot?
Mom.
- Don't.
- Mom.
- Are you pleased?
- Mom.
My dear mom.
I'll drive her to the airport.
You stay at home.
She wants me to drive her.
That's why you shouldn't drive her.
You keep giving in. That's why she's so haughty.
Soo Jung!
Soo Jung! My goodness.
Goodness.
Call me when you get home.
I will.
When will I see you again?
Mom.
Jin Ju.
- Mom.
- My goodness.
You're always at each other's throats,
but when it's time to part, you hug and cry.
Give me a break.
Watch your health over there.
That's the most important.
You look after yourself.
I will.
- Jin Ju.
- Mom.
My gosh...
- Goodness.
- Mom.
Sleep if you're tired.
I'll wake you when we get there.
I don't sleep in the car.
Soo Jung.
What?
Don't you want to find your birth parents?
You're so direct.
You don't care how others feel.
Do you find that uncomfortable?
I say what others are too considerate to say.
If I were you...
Yes, I'd have looked for them.
I'm not you.
Aren't you curious?
My mom and I fight to the death,
and even though I hate her guts,
when I'm suffering, she's all I can think of.
I'll go inside and do some shopping.
Okay. Bye.
Goodness.
Hey.
Don't pretend to be my friend.
I haven't yet forgiven you for slapping me.
Okay. I'm sorry.
My gosh...
But...
if you can't forgive me over one slap,
I think the rumor that you were abused before...
you were adopted seems plausible.
You would've been finicky as a kid.
How are you...
able to speak so freely about someone else's pain?
You should look into it.
Don't live with questions or doubts.
Who else would give you such advice?
Everyone else is busy tiptoeing around you.
Take good care of my mom for me.
Bye.
See you.
(For Ms. Jin Soo Jung)
Goodness.
Brag to your friends that your daughter got it for you.
One, two, three.
I love poems.
"You are more beautiful than any flower in the world."
That's what I want to say to you.
Hello.
I didn't recognize you.
Were you this pretty?
Yes. I was always pretty.
Let's hurry. We must get there before Hae Jun does.
Okay. Don't rush.
Why do I feel so nervous when my brother's getting married?
Me too. It's Hae Jun's wedding,
so why am I trembling?
That's because my brother's a dolt.
Do you know what happened at the family gathering?
I look forward to seeing how he'll entertain us today.
I think I'm nervous about catching the bouquet.
Should I practice?
Just catch the thing. Why would you practice?
Shall we go somewhere after the wedding?
You stayed at home for a while.
I don't think I should yet.
Let's live in the present, Mi Rae.
I'm Hyun Jae.
The newlyweds can't go on a honeymoon.
Let's go in their place.
My gosh.
You look beautiful.
Do I?
Yes.
You look amazing as well.
I feel awkward in this suit.
Have your parents arrived yet?
Not yet. I'm sure they're on their way though.
Gosh.
Why am I a nervous wreck today?
Don't be. You'll only make me nervous too.
- You've got this. Go, Yoon Jae.
- Good luck to us.
- My gosh.
- Hae Jun.
Gosh, Mi Rae!
- Congratulations on the wedding.
- Thank you.
I can't believe you're actually getting married.
It's not too late to run, you know.
- When will you cut it out?
- Seriously?
Hae Jun, you look stunning today.
- Have a good life.
- Thanks.
I wish you nothing but happiness.
Thank you.
Mi Rae, thanks to you, everything was easy to prepare.
- Thank you.
- You look stunning today.
- I'll catch you later on.
- I'll see you later.
- Hae Jun!
- Gosh, it's been so long!
- Congratulations.
- It's been a while.
You look exceptional today.
My gosh.
Dad!
When will the ladies get here?
Maybe we should've gone to the salon as well.
As if you need to be dolled up to look good.
You and your jokes.
- Gosh.
- My goodness.
You're all here.
- What took you so long?
- Don't ask.
Where's Yoon Jae?
Here we go. In 1, 2...
You're all done.
Sister-in-law, you look beautiful today.
Thank you so much, brother-in-law.
Yoon Jae, you should greet the guests.
- Oh, right.
- Unbelievable.
- You two should be out there too.
- Right.
- I'll get going. See you later.
- See you later.
We should head out there and greet the family.
Sure.
Hyun Jae, aren't you going to introduce me?
Unbelievable. You should've introduced yourself to her.
He's my little brother.
I'm Soo Jae. I hope we get along, future sister-in-law.
Oh, right.
The name's Hyun Mi Rae.
Soo Jae, "sister-in-law" seems to roll off your tongue easily.
And here I thought I was special.
Didn't you notice that I called her my "future" sister-in-law?
At this very moment, you're my one and only sister-in-law.
Hold on.
What does that make Mi Rae?
I'm right though, aren't I?
I'll wait for the day I can omit "future."
Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you for coming.
- Please head on in.
- Hello.
- Thank you for coming.
- Thank you.
- I'm glad you're here.
Dad, Mi Rae's here.
- Hello.
- You look beautiful today.
Did you just get here?
No, I was with Hae Jun at her bridal suite.
- Do you know Hae Jun?
- Yes.
She's the one who introduced us.
I see.
Where's Grandpa?
- Inside.
- We'll go and greet him.
Sure thing.
- Congratulations.
- Goodness.
- Kids!
- Gosh.
Shouldn't we get them to sit?
Honey, manage them, will you?
- That's enough.
- Enough.
- Uncle Hyun Jae!
- Uncle Hyun Jae!
- You're here too.
- Hello.
Honey, she's Hyun Jae's girlfriend. Say hi.
- Hi.
- It's a pleasure to meet you.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Yes, hello. Hi.
You're all adorable.
Pretty, isn't she?
- Soo Jae, you look dashing today.
- Right.
Grandpa. I'd like you to meet my girlfriend.
Hello, I'm Hyun Mi Rae.
Finally, we get to meet.
- Have you been well?
- I'm glad you came.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
She must be Hyun Jae's girlfriend.
Mi Rae, she's my great aunt.
I see. Hello.
You're a sweetheart. You make a fine couple.
So when will the wedding be?
You just never know when to ask the right questions.
Don't be ridiculous, Kyung Chul.
Hyun Jae's at an age where he should marry.
You're absolutely right. You heard her.
You should come by the house sometime.
- Sure thing.
- Good.
Soo Jung.
Yes?
Don't you think it's time we talked?
We can't ignore each other while living in the same house,
and it's not like one of us can leave.
Look over here and don't be so tense.
Smile, everyone. Good.
Here we go, then. In 1, 2...
One more.
Here we go.
Here we go in 1, 2, 3.
Throw the bouquet!
My gosh!
My goodness.
What do I do?
Why did it land here?
Mother, are you getting married?
Of course not! Please get over here.
- Take this back.
- Yes, ma'am.
Gosh, what a nightmare.
Did you see that?
(We thank Choi Su Rin for her special appearance.)
(It's Beautiful Now)
I think I had a conception dream.
It's silly if you ask me.
Who in this family could be pregnant?
- Sung Soo's wife?
- What if you get pregnant?
Mother!
Yoon Jae? As if it'd be that easy.
I'm starving.
Dig in.
I'll enjoy the meal.
- When will you get married?
- Grandma, please.
Please don't tell me you're dating just for fun.
Didn't you say that his father was adopted?
Do you miss her?
Of course, I do.
You must miss Yu Na too.
Hi.
Yu Na should be with someone better.
It must be hard for you.
Must you be this resolute though?
I'm trying to be strong...
so that I don't waver.
---
Mom?
Mom, just a second.
I still have something to say.
Mom, please.
Mom.
Mom?
Mom!
Mom!
Mom...
Mom, can you hear me?
Mom, you can't leave me like this.
You should've at least let me say goodbye.
Mom, please don't go. Hear what I have to say.
Mom, I'm so sorry.
Mom, I'm sorry for speaking that way to you.
I said I owed you.
Would you have put it that way...
if I were your birth mother?
Yes, I would've.
You're the one...
who has never thought of me as more than your adoptive daughter.
You ungrateful brat!
Mom, I'm so sorry.
Mom, I loved being your daughter.
Thank you so much.
That's what I wanted to tell you.
Doctor, my mom...
Mom...
Mom.
Grandma.
Mom.
Mi Rae, my mom...
Mom, no...
Mom.
(It's Beautiful Now)
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
Welcome, guys.
Having wine with you guys couldn't be more awkward.
It's even worse for me.
I can't believe you two are getting married.
That's no way to talk to your sister-in-law.
- She's right.
- What the...
It's as if someone poured olive oil down my throat.
As if I care about you.
Soo Jae, can I get you anything?
No, I'm good.
He's more of a beer guy.
That we have. Would you like some?
Yoon Jae, I like wine just as much.
Don't act like you know me.
You know, once I marry...
And this goes to you as well, Hyun Jae.
I'll now be the man of the house.
It means you should treat me with respect.
- Yoon Jae.
- Yes?
You sound old-fashioned.
Hae Jun, I find you admirable.
I liked you the moment I saw you too.
Here's to a good relationship.
Of course.
He seems to be a favorite among older women.
No wonder he's Mom's favorite.
The one I like the most is you.
You're the one I'm marrying.
Nice.
See?
Hey.
Hello?
Mi Rae?
Right.
Are you crying?
Where are you right now?
Soo Jae,
is there anything you want when we get married?
Why would I receive anything?
Shouldn't I be the one giving you a wedding gift instead?
The bride is supposed to prepare dowry gifts.
I'm fine.
I should get going.
Where are you going?
I need to go to Mi Rae. I'll see you later.
Wait...
- Mi Rae?
- It's his girlfriend.
I should get going too.
Why? You can stay a little longer.
I have to go out early tomorrow morning.
What about you?
I should go then.
Are you leaving?
Yes. I should go.
Can I talk to you for a moment?
Please finish your food.
Are you really going home? Will you leave me alone?
I want to stay here with you, but I have no choice.
We're not married yet.
We're getting married in two weeks. Why can't you stay?
My parents wouldn't like it. And Soo Jae is here.
There are so many different sides to you.
You're a dolt and an oldie.
I can put up with a dolt because he's cute,
but I can't put up with an oldie.
Yoon Jae.
Let's go.
Are you leaving?
Yes. I should get going first. You can come later.
Okay.
Hae Jun, I guess I'll see you at your wedding then.
I guess so.
- Bye.
- Bye. Go home safely.
You can come and visit me anytime.
I will remember that.
Bye.
All right. Bye.
I guess Soo Jae doesn't overstay his welcome.
He's better than you.
- Are you serious?
- No.
I just can't see my mom cry.
Your grandma...
She passed away.
I feel bad for my grandma,
and I'm so sorry for Mom too.
Where is your mom?
Well...
She's with Jung Hoo...
and Dad.
When I meet Hae Jun tomorrow, I'll ask her what we need.
And we need to talk about the dowry gifts.
We don't need any dowry gifts.
I mean, Hae Jun even has her own house.
This has nothing to do with her house.
And I don't want any dowry gifts either.
But I should at least tell her that we don't need dowry gifts.
We can prepare some gifts for Aunt's family.
We got the bedding when So Ra got married.
So we should prepare something worth just as much.
I'm home.
They're home. Soo Jae.
- What?
- Where's Yoon Jae?
He's at Hae Jun's.
- At Hae Jun's?
- Yes.
Mom, now you should think that that's where he lives.
You have to accept that.
You should accept that, Kyung Ae.
Let's say we don't...
exchange any unnecessary gifts.
But there are things we still need to prepare.
Wedding rings.
Right. We should go pick out our wedding rings.
Do you have a specific design in mind?
Something big, glittering, and expensive.
With a one-carat diamond.
Does synthetic diamond count?
That's not so expensive.
No, that's fake.
No, it has the same composition, refractive index, dispersion,
and hardness as natural diamonds.
I can tell you're so into natural science.
They are technically the same, except for their price.
But what we can see is the same.
Anyway, I don't like it.
Let's just...
go with simple rings. The round ones.
That means eternity.
Why did you talk about diamonds when you wanted a simple ring?
Everyone wants diamonds, so I just talked about it.
Don't you want a designer bag?
Will you buy me one?
Yes. But not now. Maybe later.
Forget it. I have many bags.
You know I'm a competent woman,
so all I want is that you don't ask me for money.
I can give you some money if you want.
When we decided to get married,
you said all you cared about was love.
That made me want to give you more money.
So I made some investments.
Investment? In what?
What do you think?
Of course, in stocks.
So what stocks did you buy?
Some large capital stocks and KOSDAQ.
That sounds like a lot.
It's fine as long as you don't lose my money.
Why would I lose your money? Seriously, I'll give you money.
When you say you will give me more money,
that does feel good.
- Are you serious?
- Of course, I am.
We'll be rich.
- Really?
- Sure.
Hey, Hae Jun.
Hey. Did you hear that Mi Rae's grandmother passed away?
Sure. I'm on my way to the funeral.
You should've told me yesterday.
I just heard about it...
when I called Mi Rae to talk about my wedding dress.
Sorry. I was tied up with something else.
I'll go to the funeral in the evening.
I should have lunch with Mother.
Okay.
You left late last night. Why did you come again?
I should come every day.
Thank you.
Hae Jun will come later in the evening.
We talked on the phone.
She said I should've called her sooner.
I was grateful to hear that.
Your mom looked exhausted,
so I brought some jujube tea and schizandra tea for her.
Thank you for coming.
Show them the way.
Thank again you for coming.
Get some rest.
Mi Rae, you should get some rest too.
Aren't you hungry?
No, I'm fine.
- What about you?
- I'm okay.
Are you all right?
- Mother.
- Hey.
Mother, you've become a lot more beautiful than before.
Gosh, what are you saying?
- Mother, please get in.
- Okay.
Which floor is the restaurant?
I pressed the button already.
Door closing.
Mother, doesn't this remind you...
of the time when we first met?
Why would you bring that up?
I was really terrified.
You know this is a confined space.
Gosh, will you move over a little?
No. I want to stand close to you.
We should get over the elevator.
No. You're being scary again.
And why are you in black today?
You look like the Grim Reaper.
Have you seen a pretty Grim Reaper like me?
I need to be at a funeral today.
A funeral?
Yes. A close friend of mine just lost her grandmother.
You can't go to a funeral.
Mother, aren't you afraid of me anymore?
The funeral made me get over the elevator.
You can't go there.
Why not?
You're not supposed to attend a funeral before your wedding.
Why is that?
I've heard that pregnant women shouldn't attend funerals,
but I didn't know that applied to future brides.
Future brides are best off not doing anything...
that could be bad.
If your mother had been alive, she'd have told you not to go.
I understand.
The wedding is so close.
I didn't think Yoon Jae would marry so soon after our families met.
It's something that must happen. I'm glad it'll be sooner than later.
Pass this to your brother and his wife.
It's money for the dowry gifts.
We won't ask for anything in return.
Yoon Jae will move in with you,
so we don't have to buy him an apartment.
You two said you'd take care of everything.
But as the groom's mom, I feel bad.
My son's getting married, and I want to give him something.
Tell me what you need.
Then...
love me.
What?
I don't think it's right...
to ask anyone's parents for anything when we're marrying in our 40s.
Grandpa.
Hey.
Your mom left to see Hae Jun.
I know.
When will the wedding invitations come out?
I have friends to hand them out to.
They'll be out soon.
Here.
I told you...
to spend it.
We decided to only buy rings.
Keep it and spend it in emergencies.
Why would I need emergency funds?
Just keep it, even if you don't need it.
I should give you money now.
You must really be growing up.
Use this.
Thank you.
You seem to give out bright energy.
Shall we get something sweet when we're done?
Two orders of sweet injeolmi, two red velvets,
and two orders of pure milk.
Two orders of sweet injeolmi.
Why won't your old boss visit?
Didn't he say he'd visit?
He must be busy.
Didn't he say he wanted to send someone a gift?
When will he send the gift?
Give him a call.
I don't think that's right.
Right? That's too much, isn't it?
Don't worry too much.
Star Macarons will do great.
There's no way it can't.
I'll work harder on marketing and developing new products.
You're the best.
(Lee Soo Jae)
(Deliveries only today.)
Hey, I'm outside your store.
Are you closed today?
Yes, we only do deliveries today.
Oh, I see.
I brought a workmate to let him taste your macarons.
Give me a moment.
I'll give you a few as an opening gift.
No, we'll go somewhere else.
Saet Byul.
You should make customers pay, no matter how close you are to them.
Don't hang out with freeloaders.
Let's go somewhere else.
(Star Macarons)
- Sorry.
- Don't bother.
Let's go somewhere else.
Here you go.
Where's the delivery guy?
He should be here soon.
So will the guy to deliver this too.
- Yu Na.
- Yes?
Would seeing Soo Jae make you feel uncomfortable?
He's my friend too,
and he could come by.
Right.
I need to tell him not to come if you feel uncomfortable.
I'll get out of the way if you give me a heads-up.
I can't cause you a loss.
And Soo Jae shouldn't suffer either.
- Dad.
- Hi.
What are you doing? Are you cooking ramyeon?
- Do you want some too?
- I'll make it.
Yoon Jae.
Mom, we're in here.
What are you doing?
I was about to cook ramyeon, and he offered to cook for me.
How did your lunch appointment go?
I offered her the money,
but she said she didn't need anything else.
She's quite direct and doesn't hold a grudge.
That's what she's like.
The more you get to know her, the more she grows on you.
I was wary of her at first, just like you.
But once you realize her charms,
you'll never be free.
Stop it. I feel like retaliating.
You won't marry her empty-handed, will you?
Even I don't think that's right.
I'm not empty-handed. I have something.
My debt.
Darn you!
He just can't stop teasing you.
What a nuisance.
Why did it fall even further?
This is bad. What should I do?
Hae Jun.
Did you go to the funeral?
I couldn't go because your mother said...
I shouldn't go there before my wedding.
But I feel guilty.
I see why you feel bad,
but do as my mom says this time.
Comfort Mi Rae after the funeral.
She's in a great mood right now.
- Is she?
- Yes.
She just got back from seeing you,
and she said you were direct and didn't hold a grudge.
So I added a little more to get her to like you better.
That you're charming.
Well done.
Aren't you proud?
I want to do even better now.
Yoon Jae.
- Can you come outside?
- Okay.
I'll call you again later.
Yes, Dad?
Sorry. I was supposed to do the cooking.
What's all this?
I got it out to drink with you.
You came home today, but you might not tomorrow.
I'll sleep here until I get married.
You don't have to. Do whatever you want.
Sit down.
This looks amazing.
I wanted to...
have a drink with you at home...
before you got married.
You must be happy and excited,
but I feel a bit upset.
It's not like we'll never see each other again. We will.
I'll come by often.
You were my first,
so I was an inexperienced dad.
Despite being the eldest,
you didn't suppress your brothers.
And I think that's why you three got along well.
That was because I'm selfish.
It takes time and effort to get involved with them.
All human beings are selfish.
I'll pour you one.
Let me pour yours.
Okay.
Let's drink.
Cheers.
Having you as my son...
has been a treat.
So thank you.
- Let's drink.
- Sure.
Take care, Mom.
Rest well with Dad.
(Jin Tae Hyun, Jung Mi Young)
(Jin Tae Hyun, Jung Mi Young)
(Jung Mi Young)
We'll come by often, Mother and Father.
You actually came.
I wanted to see you before I go.
Right.
Thank you for staying with us throughout the funeral.
Thank you.
We'll be heading home. What about you?
I need to head to the office.
I see.
I'll call you later.
- Go ahead.
- Sure.
Hey.
Good morning... Oh, wait. Good afternoon, everyone.
- Hey.
- Hey, Sung Soo.
Let me see.
You seem tired.
That reminds me.
Ms. Sim requested that you stop by her office when you got in.
(CEO Sim Hae Jun)
Come in.
Ms. Sim.
Did you just get in?
Gosh.
You attended the funeral for three whole days?
Yes.
Goodness.
You must be exhausted.
Don't you have a lot of work to get through?
Yes, I pushed everything back, so it's going to be a long day.
Anyway, were you at the funeral? I don't think I saw you.
I was going to go,
but I didn't because your mother told me not to.
- My mom?
- Yes.
She said it was a bad sign for a future bride to be there.
I can't believe I did this to Mi Rae.
It's all right. I was there for her, remember?
We agreed to meet today to discuss my wedding dress.
What do I tell her?
Come in.
My gosh, what a surprise.
- Hello.
- Yes, hello.
We meet again thanks to you working here.
I guess so. I'll give you the room, then.
Right.
Gosh, please have a seat.
He seems tired.
Well, his girlfriend's grandmother recently passed away,
so he attended the funeral for three whole days.
His girlfriend is a good friend of mine,
but Yoon Jae's mother said...
that a future bride shouldn't attend funerals.
So I couldn't be there for her.
And she's right.
Hold on. Will Yoon Jae's brother be at your wedding?
I don't think he should attend the ceremony.
It's all a superstition.
You're marrying at an older age...
and should steer clear from anything that can bring bad luck.
Your brother's worried sick, you know.
I honestly don't get it.
Why did my decision to marry suddenly make him all brotherly?
Well, we speak from experience.
I only put up with your brother because he's my kids' father.
It must be the same for him as well.
Even if you have a successful career,
it won't matter once you marry Dr. Yoon.
"Did you cook for my son? When will you have children?"
Yoon Jae and I will buy our meals rather than cook.
He's only playing along because you haven't tied the knot yet.
Let's face it. He's practically marrying you for free.
And for that alone, he should serve you like a queen.
If you're going to say those things, I won't see you until the wedding.
I honestly wouldn't mind,
but your brother is being persistent.
I'll tag along just to the wedding dress shop.
Soo Jung cried all the way to the charnel house.
Don't you find it hard to cry though when you're really sad?
Some are like that way and some are not.
Don't talk like you know everything when you don't.
We're home.
They must be home.
Let's see if Soo Jung...
actually expresses her gratitude to you.
Why should she thank me?
You only had to be at the funeral once,
but you stayed until the casket left.
She said she'd wait for you to forgive her.
So she should do that by actually being nice to you.
Those kinds of things you always remember.
If you had studied with that brain of yours,
you would've gotten into a top university.
Grandma.
We're home.
Right. Did you properly send her off?
Yes, her remains were placed next to grandpa's.
Are you feeling all right?
I'm fine, of course.
You stopped by the funeral home at an early hour.
Mom is worried about your health.
What is your Mom up to?
She went to her room.
She couldn't sleep,
so the doctor prescribed her some sleeping aids.
Shouldn't you take the sleeping pills?
I think it'll be better to take them before sleeping.
No, I don't think I'll be going to sleep anyway.
Mom, here you go.
She's not going to take them right now.
It has been hard on you two, hasn't it?
Not really. Mom's the one who had to endure so much.
I was grateful that Hyun Jae was there.
Me too. He came by every day which wasn't easy...
and kept us company.
Why don't you invite him over for dinner the following weekend?
That sounds like a good idea.
Are you sure, Mom?
Yes.
I should rather stay busy.
Not doing anything will only make me miss her more.
All right. I'll ask Hyun Jae.
Mom invited you over for dinner the following weekend.
I guess she was grateful that you were there at the funeral.
(Missing Persons' Families Support Center)
Gosh, Mr. Lee.
It's been a while since you were here.
My eldest grandson is getting married.
Congratulations, sir.
Did the joyful event have you miss your daughter?
I think of her all the time.
Anyway, this is for you.
Thank you.
Has there been word from the National Forensic Service?
If there had been, we would've called right away.
It might be better not to think about her.
If only I could.
Anyway, have a good day.
Thank you, sir.
(Missing Persons' Families Support Center)
Min Ho, is that you?
I suddenly missed you which is why I called.
Where are you?
Downtown.
- By yourself?
- Yes.
Min Ho,
I'm so happy to see Yoon Jae finally marry.
Am I allowed to be happy though...
when I don't even know where my own daughter is?
What are you up to?
I'm sorting out the dinnerware.
Why do you even want to do such a thing?
Leave if you're not going to help.
I'll put in a good word for you with my mom.
It's not your fault that you were adopted.
Just the fact that you lied about it.
Why would you do that for me?
It's like I said.
Unless you get in my way, I will have no hard feelings.
The fact that you take care of my mom...
does make my life easier.
When will you leave?
Soon.
It doesn't seem like Mom will sell the building anytime soon.
What about the money you took from her last time?
Why do you need her to sell her building?
I spent it all, of course.
My husband brings home a salary.
The money he earns is limited...
but my spending habit isn't.
On top of that, he'll be retiring soon.
Back in the day, I loved that he was predictable,
but I'm sick of it now.
He's a scrooge.
- You're lucky.
- How so?
Who knew that Jin Heon's gimbap business would take off?
Life has taught me...
that luck trumps all.
What does he have that I don't?
Even his grades were worse than mine.
He's kind.
What about me?
Are you saying I'm not?
I'll leave you to answer that yourself.
This is exactly why I don't want to be nice to you.
Just consider how lucky your life has been.
You were adopted by generous parents...
and married a wealthy man...
who treats you like a princess.
Was I lucky to have been abandoned by my parents?
Think before you speak, will you?
I can never have the last word with her.
Gosh.
What is she up to?
She's cleaning the dinnerware.
Mom, I'll be heading back to Australia soon.
Is there anything you'd like to give me?
Like what?
What do you do with the rent you receive?
I spend it, of course.
Maybe I should get divorced and live with you?
Are you kidding me?
Don't worry. I wouldn't dare to live with you.
It would never get boring if we lived together...
with all the arguing.
That's true.
I'm home.
That's Jin Heon. Why is he home already?
Wait, are you cooking?
Yes.
You should rest, you know.
I bought some sushi for you.
It's better to stay busy.
Let your mom have it.
What about you?
I'm sorry for not showing up at the funeral.
It's all right, Hae Jun.
It really isn't.
Here.
Please take it. Formalities shouldn't be skipped.
Thank you.
Now, why don't you try on some dresses?
Maybe I should.
It's a feminine and elegant long-sleeved bell-line dress.
The beaded embroidery...
and the low-cut neckline are the highlighted features.
I think you look better in the other dress.
Yoon Jae, what about you?
What?
Well, I think you look beautiful in everything.
You know all the right answers, don't you?
This must be why you fell for him.
I'll try on the one I had on earlier.
By the way, Hae Jun.
I've asked around,
and people have been telling me that you shouldn't attend a wedding...
after attending a funeral.
Seriously?
I'm sorry to say this,
but maybe Yoon Jae's brother shouldn't attend the wedding.
Like I said, it's only a superstition.
Actually, it's custom.
Don't do anything that could bring you any kind of bad luck.
Mi Rae, please don't be upset by what she said.
It's only a superstition that I don't believe in.
She said it can bring bad luck, so I can't help but be worried.
There's really no need for that.
I'll ask my elders too.
I want to congratulate you on your marriage more than anyone,
but I don't want to do anything that could be frowned upon.
By the way, where did Kyung Chul go?
He went out for a walk.
My goodness. On his own?
Why didn't he take me with him?
Hey, Hyun Jae.
Mom,
should you attend a wedding if a family member passed away?
It's better to stay away if the funeral was recent.
Is that the case with someone you know?
What about going to a wedding after attending a funeral?
I was recently at one.
You were recently at a funeral?
How could you when Yoon Jae's about to marry?
You should've been more careful.
Why do people believe such things?
Come home immediately.
It won't take long. We need to talk.
- Was he recently at a funeral?
- It seems that way.
Gosh, that's terrible.
We can perform an exorcism.
Unbelievable.
Get away from him!
Hold on a second.
Go away from him!
What on earth? This is the 21st century, you know.
No matter what century we're in,
we shouldn't do anything that can bring bad luck.
Mother, over to that side.
Go away.
There you go.
Great Aunt Kyung Soon, please.
This must be done.
Gosh. That was unbelievable.
Hyun Jae.
Whose funeral were you at?
I stopped Hae Jun from attending one, you know.
Please know that...
I'm absolutely flustered by what just happened.
(Star Macarons)
Welcome.
Hello.
Mr. Hyun!
Have you been well?
I have. What about you?
It hasn't been that great for me.
How's your grandmother? Is she feeling better?
I wanted to ask how she was doing,
but I didn't want to be out of line.
There isn't any reason for you to overthink it, you know.
I guess you're right.
I've been trying harder not to overthink things recently.
Anyway, what can I get you?
I'll take three random packs and the strawberry yogurt pack.
My sister enjoyed the strawberry yogurt macarons,
so I'm getting them for my mom.
Why would you buy it for your mom when your sister liked it?
My mom has been feeling down lately.
My grandmother passed away.
Mom.
Hey.
Were you thinking of Grandma?
Yes.
I still can't believe it.
It feels like she will call me...
and ask if I had dinner.
You should go have dinner.
I want to eat with you.
You don't have to do this.
I promised Grandma that I would take good care of you.
When did you make such a promise?
I told her when she was moved to the ICU.
This ordeal with Grandmother and Aunt has enlightened me.
I finally understand...
why you were worried about me being swept away by Hyun Jae.
Marriage is becoming a family with each other.
Getting married and becoming a family...
can't be a key to everything.
There can always be another problem.
But I believe you will be different from me.
Actually, Hyun Jae seems like a nice guy.
He's responsible and thoughtful.
Above all things, I can tell he cares a lot about you.
How did you know that?
He's being nice to me because he cares about you.
It was hard eating anything during the funeral,
but after having Hyun Jae's jujube tea,
I felt much better.
I was thankful for that.
It's so nice to have a decent meal after a long time.
I like sushi better.
By the way, why isn't Soo Jung eating?
Is she avoiding Mom?
Can't you just stay quiet while you eat?
I'm the only one you can look down on, right?
You are nothing like this to your kids.
Isn't Mi Rae home? Why isn't she eating?
I guess she's with her mom.
You know she sticks to her mom all the time.
And it's getting even worse.
This is so good.
Do people still believe that these days?
So you know what it is.
They say attending a funeral before a wedding brings bad luck.
Yes. I'm aware of that.
And I can understand why they say such a thing.
But I don't follow it.
I don't want that anxiety to get in my way.
Then do you think I can go to the wedding?
Ask Ms. Sim. You should let her decide.
We never know what will happen in life.
You don't have to do anything that can earn someone's grudge.
Okay.
It's so good to have Mother's kimchi.
I know. It tastes good, right?
I wish we had more of her side dishes.
Hi, Mi Rae.
- What are you doing?
- I'm eating.
Hae Jun, I'm afraid I can't go to your wedding.
I know it's superstition,
but I don't want to do anything that might bring you bad luck.
Don't be like that.
You know I really like you, right?
I can't make it to your wedding, but I'll do anything to help you.
Okay. I'll talk to you again later.
Bye.
What?
Mi Rae is not coming to our wedding.
It's been a while.
Nice to meet you. What brings you by?
"What brings you by?"
Do I need a reason to come to see you?
We don't need a reason to see each other.
I know.
How is your mom doing?
She's trying to keep herself busy.
She says she feels better when she's occupied.
I understand.
Some people overcome their sorrow like that.
I was surprised that she invited me over.
Why?
I don't think I did anything to deserve all that.
You were there for my family for three whole days.
It made me realize...
that just being there for someone means a lot.
And I decided I would attend funerals no matter what.
I was really grateful to those who came to the funeral.
You're right.
Do you want to hear something funny?
You asked about going to a wedding after attending a funeral,
so I called my mom.
And she told me to come home right away.
So I stopped by her place.
Then I got salt thrown all over me.
Gosh, that was crazy.
Why do parents worry about things like that?
Did you tell her that you came to my grandma's funeral?
I didn't tell her whose funeral it was.
Speaking of which,
I'm not going to the wedding.
Even if it's superstition,
I don't want to do anything that might bring Hae Jun bad luck.
Then I'm not going either.
No, that's not right.
No, that's not right.
I'll go if you go, and I won't go if you don't.
End of discussion.
I'm going shopping with Mom.
Okay. Have fun.
I'm going back to Australia in two days.
I have nothing to do here.
And Mom is not selling the building anytime soon.
Okay.
Drive me to the airport. I have a lot of luggage.
And Jin Heon wouldn't even look at me.
Let's go.
What are you doing here?
I was about to go in.
I know you've been avoiding me.
I'm just trying not to make you uncomfortable.
See you.
I can't believe this.
You can't believe it? So what?
You know I'm all you have.
And you've done enough to make your point.
You will miss me a lot once I go back to Australia.
Are you sure you can put up with her?
You sound like you are really mad at her,
but you are gentle as a lamb when she's around.
Her mom had been bedridden in the hospital,
and she had just lost her mom.
What am I supposed to say to her?
I'm not an irrational beast.
Everyone in this family raises their voice only at me.
Mother, I'm sorry I'm late.
It's all right.
I know you're busy with work.
It must be hard for you to prepare for the wedding.
Thank you for understanding.
Are you feeling all right? Aren't you tired?
Yes, I'm fine.
Well... Mother.
Yes?
The thing is,
I took your advice and didn't attend the funeral.
I'm glad you didn't.
But...
it weighed heavy on my mind for days.
She is my close friend,
but I couldn't be there for her when she had a hard time.
I believe she will understand you.
I know.
She will understand me,
but I was disappointed in myself.
So...
I don't want to repeat the same mistake this time.
I could've invited her to my wedding without telling you.
But that's not what I want to do.
I don't want to lie to you.
Can I...
invite her to my wedding?
Yoon Jae and I will be happy.
Things can happen in life.
But we will work things out and get through them.
Can I have your permission?
That was...
quite touching.
Thank you, Mother.
Hae Jun.
How's this?
I won't buy a bag. I have enough already.
I know that. But you like it, don't you?
Yes, I do.
But I love this dress too.
Don't you need new clothes to wear on your honeymoon?
A T-shirt at least.
We're not going on a honeymoon.
You can still wear it at the hotel.
Mi Rae.
I want you to be at my wedding.
I want to be there too.
But I don't want to do anything that might inconvenience you...
even the slightest.
Mi Rae.
Hae Jun.
Are customs more important than our friendship?
Won't there be more hardships and sad events on the way?
There will be.
Come and bless me.
I want to be blessed lots and lots at my wedding.
I will bless you lots and lots even if I'm not at the wedding.
Catch the bouquet.
None of my friends are available.
Can you still not come?
Can you not?
- Well?
- What?
You're going to catch Hae Jun's bouquet?
Yes.
Does that mean we'll both be at my brother's wedding?
Yes.
Great.
All you evil spirits, get out of our lives.
Hyun Jae and Mi Rae's on the way.
- Yes.
- Yes.
Are you pleased that I'm leaving?
Why would I be pleased?
I'd prefer to see you around.
Even though I kept asking you for money?
I hate that when you're around.
But once you leave, I forget about that...
and only remember our shopping trips and food adventures.
You are my mom after all.
What am I if not your mom?
I was so scared of you growing up.
Now you're not scary at all.
Is it because I'm older...
or because you are weaker?
It won't be enough for a car, but I'll give you some money.
Can you give me a lot while you're at it?
Why would I give you a lot?
Mom.
- Don't.
- Mom.
- Are you pleased?
- Mom.
My dear mom.
I'll drive her to the airport.
You stay at home.
She wants me to drive her.
That's why you shouldn't drive her.
You keep giving in. That's why she's so haughty.
Soo Jung!
Soo Jung! My goodness.
Goodness.
Call me when you get home.
I will.
When will I see you again?
Mom.
Jin Ju.
- Mom.
- My goodness.
You're always at each other's throats,
but when it's time to part, you hug and cry.
Give me a break.
Watch your health over there.
That's the most important.
You look after yourself.
I will.
- Jin Ju.
- Mom.
My gosh...
- Goodness.
- Mom.
Sleep if you're tired.
I'll wake you when we get there.
I don't sleep in the car.
Soo Jung.
What?
Don't you want to find your birth parents?
You're so direct.
You don't care how others feel.
Do you find that uncomfortable?
I say what others are too considerate to say.
If I were you...
Yes, I'd have looked for them.
I'm not you.
Aren't you curious?
My mom and I fight to the death,
and even though I hate her guts,
when I'm suffering, she's all I can think of.
I'll go inside and do some shopping.
Okay. Bye.
Goodness.
Hey.
Don't pretend to be my friend.
I haven't yet forgiven you for slapping me.
Okay. I'm sorry.
My gosh...
But...
if you can't forgive me over one slap,
I think the rumor that you were abused before...
you were adopted seems plausible.
You would've been finicky as a kid.
How are you...
able to speak so freely about someone else's pain?
You should look into it.
Don't live with questions or doubts.
Who else would give you such advice?
Everyone else is busy tiptoeing around you.
Take good care of my mom for me.
Bye.
See you.
(For Ms. Jin Soo Jung)
Goodness.
Brag to your friends that your daughter got it for you.
One, two, three.
I love poems.
"You are more beautiful than any flower in the world."
That's what I want to say to you.
Hello.
I didn't recognize you.
Were you this pretty?
Yes. I was always pretty.
Let's hurry. We must get there before Hae Jun does.
Okay. Don't rush.
Why do I feel so nervous when my brother's getting married?
Me too. It's Hae Jun's wedding,
so why am I trembling?
That's because my brother's a dolt.
Do you know what happened at the family gathering?
I look forward to seeing how he'll entertain us today.
I think I'm nervous about catching the bouquet.
Should I practice?
Just catch the thing. Why would you practice?
Shall we go somewhere after the wedding?
You stayed at home for a while.
I don't think I should yet.
Let's live in the present, Mi Rae.
I'm Hyun Jae.
The newlyweds can't go on a honeymoon.
Let's go in their place.
My gosh.
You look beautiful.
Do I?
Yes.
You look amazing as well.
I feel awkward in this suit.
Have your parents arrived yet?
Not yet. I'm sure they're on their way though.
Gosh.
Why am I a nervous wreck today?
Don't be. You'll only make me nervous too.
- You've got this. Go, Yoon Jae.
- Good luck to us.
- My gosh.
- Hae Jun.
Gosh, Mi Rae!
- Congratulations on the wedding.
- Thank you.
I can't believe you're actually getting married.
It's not too late to run, you know.
- When will you cut it out?
- Seriously?
Hae Jun, you look stunning today.
- Have a good life.
- Thanks.
I wish you nothing but happiness.
Thank you.
Mi Rae, thanks to you, everything was easy to prepare.
- Thank you.
- You look stunning today.
- I'll catch you later on.
- I'll see you later.
- Hae Jun!
- Gosh, it's been so long!
- Congratulations.
- It's been a while.
You look exceptional today.
My gosh.
Dad!
When will the ladies get here?
Maybe we should've gone to the salon as well.
As if you need to be dolled up to look good.
You and your jokes.
- Gosh.
- My goodness.
You're all here.
- What took you so long?
- Don't ask.
Where's Yoon Jae?
Here we go. In 1, 2...
You're all done.
Sister-in-law, you look beautiful today.
Thank you so much, brother-in-law.
Yoon Jae, you should greet the guests.
- Oh, right.
- Unbelievable.
- You two should be out there too.
- Right.
- I'll get going. See you later.
- See you later.
We should head out there and greet the family.
Sure.
Hyun Jae, aren't you going to introduce me?
Unbelievable. You should've introduced yourself to her.
He's my little brother.
I'm Soo Jae. I hope we get along, future sister-in-law.
Oh, right.
The name's Hyun Mi Rae.
Soo Jae, "sister-in-law" seems to roll off your tongue easily.
And here I thought I was special.
Didn't you notice that I called her my "future" sister-in-law?
At this very moment, you're my one and only sister-in-law.
Hold on.
What does that make Mi Rae?
I'm right though, aren't I?
I'll wait for the day I can omit "future."
Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you for coming.
- Please head on in.
- Hello.
- Thank you for coming.
- Thank you.
- I'm glad you're here.
Dad, Mi Rae's here.
- Hello.
- You look beautiful today.
Did you just get here?
No, I was with Hae Jun at her bridal suite.
- Do you know Hae Jun?
- Yes.
She's the one who introduced us.
I see.
Where's Grandpa?
- Inside.
- We'll go and greet him.
Sure thing.
- Congratulations.
- Goodness.
- Kids!
- Gosh.
Shouldn't we get them to sit?
Honey, manage them, will you?
- That's enough.
- Enough.
- Uncle Hyun Jae!
- Uncle Hyun Jae!
- You're here too.
- Hello.
Honey, she's Hyun Jae's girlfriend. Say hi.
- Hi.
- It's a pleasure to meet you.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Yes, hello. Hi.
You're all adorable.
Pretty, isn't she?
- Soo Jae, you look dashing today.
- Right.
Grandpa. I'd like you to meet my girlfriend.
Hello, I'm Hyun Mi Rae.
Finally, we get to meet.
- Have you been well?
- I'm glad you came.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
She must be Hyun Jae's girlfriend.
Mi Rae, she's my great aunt.
I see. Hello.
You're a sweetheart. You make a fine couple.
So when will the wedding be?
You just never know when to ask the right questions.
Don't be ridiculous, Kyung Chul.
Hyun Jae's at an age where he should marry.
You're absolutely right. You heard her.
You should come by the house sometime.
- Sure thing.
- Good.
Soo Jung.
Yes?
Don't you think it's time we talked?
We can't ignore each other while living in the same house,
and it's not like one of us can leave.
Look over here and don't be so tense.
Smile, everyone. Good.
Here we go, then. In 1, 2...
One more.
Here we go.
Here we go in 1, 2, 3.
Throw the bouquet!
My gosh!
My goodness.
What do I do?
Why did it land here?
Mother, are you getting married?
Of course not! Please get over here.
- Take this back.
- Yes, ma'am.

(It's Beautiful Now)
I think I had a conception dream.
It's silly if you ask me.
Who in this family could be pregnant?
- Sung Soo's wife?
- What if you get pregnant?
Mother!
Yoon Jae? As if it'd be that easy.
I'm starving.
Dig in.
I'll enjoy the meal.
- When will you get married?
- Grandma, please.
Please don't tell me you're dating just for fun.
Didn't you say that his father was adopted?
Do you miss her?
Of course, I do.
You must miss Yu Na too.
Hi.
Yu Na should be with someone better.
It must be hard for you.
Must you be this resolute though?
I'm trying to be strong...
so that I don't waver.
