Who are you to tell my husband about our family?
You have no right.
I know he's your husband,
but he's also my son-in-law.
And Ji-a's not just your daughter.
She's my one and only granddaughter.
Did I have two dads then?
I only had one,
but you never let me talk to him or see him.
Because of that,
I wasn't even able to breathe properly around you.
Is that why
you made me look like a liar to my husband?
I couldn't explain in detail.
You made me a liar.
-How-- -I said my parents got along well.
But a car accident took Dad's life.
I pretended to have come from such a happy two-parent family.
You know how hard I worked not to seem fazed
despite being raised by a single parent!
It's nothing to be proud of or beneficial to me,
but you still told him everything about our family.
He thought loneliness was the only issue I had!
Actually, you don't have any issues.
Is that what you think? Do I seem to have no issue?
Probably in your dreams.
You grew up well.
-You never broke my heart or-- -What a liar.
Just a second ago, you said you couldn't breathe properly around me.
I'm aware
that I'm mean and abnormal.
-That's not true. -He'll be put off by me.
He now knows I've been wearing a mask for ten years.
-I'm sure he understands-- -Did you read what he's thinking?
He may not say so, but that's how he'll feel.
But you've done so much for him.
You got that right.
All these years, I worked my butt off to be a perfect wife and daughter-in-law.
But you ruined it. Why did you mess it up?
When will you stop ruining my world?
"What could she have learned from a broken family?"
He'll wonder that for sure now.
If I was him, I would.
He must think I'm negative towards men because of my dad's affair
and that I'm naggy and hysterical because I was raised by a single mother.
I kept it all in so that no one would see me that way.
If you were me, wouldn't you be just as resentful?
All this because your husband cheated on you?
Ending your marriage was enough.
Why tear me and Dad apart too?
You've always been selfish.
Only your feelings matter to you.
If you cared about others and the pain it would cause me,
you wouldn't have done that.
-You know since you're married now. -Know what?
Once you marry someone,
cheating becomes the one thing you can't forgive.
-Can't you still understand me? -Fine.
What Dad did was unforgivable.
But why did I have to suffer too?
I didn't force you two to marry.
You two fell in love and had me.
And he was still my dad.
We were connected by blood.
You could've divorced him,
but still let him be my dad.
Instead,
you'd whine in tears about how your poor choice in men
made you a divorcée.
I was tired of it.
Dad adored me, you know.
He cherished me.
I know he cheated on you,
but how could you tear us apart?
How could you stop him from seeing his only daughter?
He had rights, you know.
It's you he wronged, not me.
But you packed him a bag and kicked him out.
You wouldn't understand,
since your parents lived long enough.
You can't even imagine.
Before my very eyes,
while walking towards me with his arms open…
I won't forget it until the day I die.
Grandma defended you from time to time.
"You can tolerate the food you hate, but not the person you loathe."
I understand why you can't forgive your husband
who cheated on you.
Still, you shouldn't have kept a father and daughter apart.
I'm even more certain now that Ji-a's in the picture.
My friends bragged about their dads taking them on trips,
buying them cosmetics,
and treating them to delicious meals.
Imagine how I must have felt hearing that.
Instead of a dad I can brag about,
I had a dad I could never see again.
It kills me to think
that I can never hold his warm hands again.
Have you ever apologized to Dad for what you did?
Do you even feel sorry?
I'm sorry for telling him,
but Yu-sin's too sweet
to ever betray you like that. But--
You led Dad to his death!
You not only kicked him out,
but kept him from seeing or talking to his own daughter.
That's why he came to see me at school
and died in an accident!
So what's with all the excuses again?
Are you saying that I'm wrong?
Fine! It's all my fault!
Your father did nothing wrong,
and I'm the only one to blame.
Fate decides who gets to live.
He died because it was his time to go!
I have nothing more to say.
Resent him until the day you die.
You did nothing wrong,
and Dad got what he deserved.
Happy now?
You'll never see Ji-a again.
Just like you took Dad from me, she'll be taken from you too.
You have some nerve.
Even God disapproves of adulterers!
You'll never understand the sense of betrayal unless you experience it.
The feeling of betrayal that only gives you shudders.
Aren't you just as responsible?
Don't you think you drove him to that?
I acknowledge the fact that he betrayed you.
But you're not entirely innocent.
Dad must have been fed up with you, just like me.
What did you say?
As always,
just like this time,
you refuse to think of others even at that age.
You married a man out of love and elevated his social status,
but he had the audacity to cheat on you with his secretary.
Of course, your blood boiled.
But has it ever crossed your mind that you drove him away?
You look down on people
and consider yourself a queen.
-What? -You were worse back in the day.
You used to constantly tell me how the help won't be grateful
and will try and cross the line if you're too nice to them.
You always looked down on people.
How did you treat Dad?
Did you treat him with respect?
All I remember
is that he always had to walk on eggshells around you.
You'd get annoyed over such frivolous matters,
so he had to spend his time trying to make you feel better.
Not even a kid should be that way.
Do you know what my colleagues say?
"Pretty faces only last a month. Kindness matters more in the end."
Think in his shoes for once.
Think from his perspective. You know, don't you?
I'm sure you do.
You just don't want to admit it.
Even I would be swayed by a sweet, kindhearted secretary
if I had to come home to a difficult wife.
It's only natural.
People think alike.
-How dare you! -Think about it.
If you had an abusive husband
and a sweet, kind and young man showed interest, you'd be drawn to him.
It's only natural.
Rather than being a snob,
if you had respected Dad as your husband,
he wouldn't have…
We both know how earnest and kind he was.
He never would have cheated on you.
Even if someone coaxed him to betray you,
he wouldn't have broken your trust.
What about you then? Is it me that you take after?
Is that why you're this heartless?
That must be it.
Forget how Dad must have felt then
and think about how your daughter
must have felt.
I wouldn't have the nerve to ask to see Ji-a.
I'd stay away until summoned.
That's how guilty I'd be.
-Jae-yu! -What's up?
I thought about it, U-ram.
-You saved up some money, right? -Yes.
-How much? -I haven't counted it yet.
Hundreds of thousands of won, right?
Buy your mom something pretty to wear.
You don't like how your mom looks old,
so it should make her look younger.
KOREAN LANGUAGE
Hyang-gi.
Did you knock?
It slipped my mind.
Let's buy something for Mom together.
But her birthday's far away.
And Dad will get her anniversary gift.
Mom doesn't have much to wear. She only wears pants.
-I hardly have clothes myself. -In that case, what are those?
Your closet's packed as well.
