What did your parents say? They didn’t give in, did they?
Of course not.
I think I’ll just go back. They wouldn’t kill me.
That’s a good idea.
They tell you to leave, but once you leave, they get upset.
You know that too?
You treat me like a kid. I’m not that young. I’m already a senior.
Honestly I envy you. How do you know so clearly what you wanna do?
You don’t?
I don’t have anything I wanna do. There’s nothing I do or wanna do well.
I did ballet because my mom pushed me so hard and I had to go to college.
Because of her, I barely made it to college but I have no talent.
That’s why I admired you more.
I admire people who have dreams and passion.
Which I don’t have…
Sit.
Aunt just left.
Don’t I mean anything to you?
I’m not your birth mother, but I raised you for 20 years.
Mom…
Maybe it’s cuz I never had my birth child, but I always thought of you as mine.
Geum might be upset to hear this, but sometimes I adored you or Ki more.
Why? Because you’re my husband’s children.
I’m sorry to Geum for saying this.
How could you hide something so big from us?
You should at least have told me.
If you couldn’t tell father that you were marrying with someone else’s child...
...you should’ve told me.
Did you think I wouldn’t understand you because I never gave birth?
No. It’s not that.
We promised each other that we’d never tell anyone.
And…
I was ashamed.
I knew it was shameful.
I was really ashamed and afraid of others knowing.
That’s all the more reason you should’ve told me.
If not to your parents or family, who could you tell such a thing?
You’re right. How come I realize that now…
If I went back to then...
...I wouldn’t do it again… but I’d tell you.
It was very hard to handle it alone for 7 years.
I actually feel better after your finding out.
I’m sorry.
Mother in-law caused a lot of trouble, didn’t she...
Of course. That’s why you should’ve told me sooner.
Then I could’ve said something back to her.
Why she blamed my daughter. That her son was also at fault.
Why do you hold all the blame?
What a fool. What a naive fool.
Why did she not say anything and struggle alone for 7 years?
That’s why she didn’t get any alimony or child support.
She couldn’t tell us that.
Stupid. She’s more stupid, and foolish than Geum.
Um... Go now.
When are you gonna tell your parents?
Why do you keep talking down to me?
- I will from now on. - Why?
That’s not fair. I like couples that are respectful to each other.
Don’t talk down.
No.
You said you’re sorry. Then you should at least bear this.
So petty…
- Geum. - Oh, no.
Hello, mother. Long time no see.
What?
Yes, mother. I’m Kyung-Woo.
Mom.
Mom.
- Mom, um... - Let's go home.
Mom.
Mom! Ow...
What happened? What?
Mom. I wanted to tell you but couldn’t because of Ki.
We started to meet again. It’s been a while.
What? I can’t believe this.
You have no pride? How can you meet such a jerk again?
It’s different now. I tried hard not to fall for him but…
What’s the use? Do you think people change that easily?
If he called off the wedding and broke his word so easily…
He didn’t love me then!
And? He loves you now?
Yeah.
What?
I’m not kidding.
Mom…
We’re gonna get married.
He proposed to me.
I thought hard about it and said yes today.
We’re serious this time.
We both had a hard time before, so we agonized a lot over it.
We almost broke up, but it turned out like this.
I think we’re meant to be.
Give me a break. You’re meant to be?
After what he put you through? People never change that easily!
He isn’t like that! He honestly told me he didn’t love me back then.
I knew it, but I said yes because I was desperate for money.
What?
He never lied to me. It’s me who deceived you.
When grandma asked what he liked about me, he never said he liked me.
He’s honest.
What nonsense is that?
Mom, you can hit me, but give me your blessing.
I really love him. We really love each other.
Mother. Please.
Do you know why I was desperate to marry soon?
Since 20 years ago when you remarried, I wanted to marry soon and leave home�
