BATTLE FOR HAPPINESS

ALL CHARACTERS, EVENTS, LOCATIONS AND INCIDENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.

Step back, please!

Hey! Hey!

What's that? Is that a person?

How horrible.

What floor is that?

One of them must've survived.

EPISODE 1

- He proposed. - Where did you get that ring?

It's beautiful.

- A long-awaited vacation. - Isn't my baby cute?

My good daughter always sleeps to make my job easy.

Was it fun?

I'm only wearing this year's items from head to toe.

THE WIND ISN'T HELPING

BARELY GOT ONE PHOTO

The wind isn't helping. I barely got one photo.

Please stop, wind. I need a weather fairy.

JUNG-AH CEO

23,000 FOLLOWERS

I came to work after a long break.

But I came in at 11:00.

The privilege of being the CEO.

NA-YOUNG

8,000 FOLLOWERS

I look puffy. Doomed.

My honey says I'm beautiful, not knowing how upset I am.

Nothing looks good on me today.

On days like this, I don't want to go out.

Which color should I buy next time?

My honey is buying me a new one, so I sorted out the purses I don't use.

Family trip. I was sipping on champagne and got drunk.

Full of inspiration in the city of art.

My husband tells me not to worry because he'll massage me.

DGB FINANCIAL GROUP

In her application, she didn't have money for her sister's lessons,

but she had a cocktail at a bar with a beautiful view.

She must've thought we wouldn't check.

It's a social media event.

Isn't it common sense to think that we'd check their stories?

I know.

Or maybe she couldn't help but brag about it.

This is an annual event.

Why are there so many applicants this year?

The prizes are good.

DGB HOME SWEET HOME FAMILY PHOTO EVENT

75-INCH TV, REFRIGERATOR...

LS Electronics gave us their inventory instead of paying interest.

YU-JIN - 17,000 FOLLOWERS ELLA & EMMA & LOVE MY LIFE

What? What is it?

Ms. Jang. Is the list of the event winners ready?

I'm still checking their stories.

What have you been doing?

You're not being fair, sir.

I know you're busy, but the vice chairman is asking for it.

Hey. It'd be nice to show your face to him once more

right before the promotion.

A promotion will come in due time.

Why isn't she desperate for anything?

Aren't you all going to lunch?

What do you want to eat, Mr. Lee?

What about beef tripe?

Something else.

- Oyster soup? - Spicy chicken.

- Ate it last night. - Spicy pork.

- That sounds good. - I'm in.

- No, no. - Why not?

You ate that for lunch yesterday.

- Once more won't hurt. - Yeah.

Didn't we have the soy sauce version?

Why do we only eat that?

Here is your order.

MOM

Hi, Mom.

I'm having lunch right now.

You did?

Sorry. I must've been busy.

Did you take your medicine?

What do you think?

Oh, my! How can you be so good at it?

It's a laid-back day.

I made some snacks for Ji-yul and Ha-yul.

Priceless labor.

My kids don't eat what's not pretty.

So my cooking skills got better.

Queen of queens in plates.

What can't you do?

Where did you get that plate?

Crazy golden hand. You're on another level.

I always get this wrong.

It's time for your meal, ma'am.

Go ahead and eat.

You're here.

Come on in.

I'm always receiving things from you.

Don't say that. It's us.

I can always make snacks for Min-sung.

It's because I feel like I'm always benefitting from you.

It's so good.

How can you be good at everything?

Oh, right.

While I was at the department store, I got something for Ji-yul and Ha-yul.

Who else would get things for them?

They're beautiful.

I'm the one benefitting this time.

- It's all about give and take, right? - Of course.

Ta-da!

Oh, my! They're beautiful!

- Did you really make all these yourself? - Of course.

Why would you bother making these?

You can just buy them.

Homemade ones and store-bought ones aren't the same.

Money can't get you these.

Let's take a picture together.

I want to show them to my husband.

Did they come out well?

Unbelievable. I got one good picture.

I'll meet you downstairs, Yu-jin.

CCTV REPLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION

sprit_ssong made a new post

I must brag about this.

This is true friendship. Friendship flex.

You must've forgotten to mention that the cookies were from me.

LOL

love. _. chloemom has made a new post

So touched. Yu-jin made snacks for A-rin.

How can I ever repay her?

Did you have to use this picture out of all the other better ones?

The bear cookies look squashed.

- Hello! - Hi!

Hey!

Oh, my goodness.

- You're here. - Hey!

Min-sung. Hi.

- Mom! - Mom!

Ella?

She's been like this all day.

You must've loved playing hide-and-seek with Dad yesterday.

You wanted to play it with Ms. Jo, too?

Why don't you go and play with your friends?

Ms. Jo A-ra.

Ji-yul is doing well in school, right?

She is such a smart, good girl, so I have no worries.

But...

Ji-yul does seem a bit depressed these days.

You should pay more attention to her at home.

She isn't like that at home.

You should pay more attention to her at school.

- Pardon? - You joined this kindergarten

two years ago, right?

I understand that you are still learning your way with the kids.

Even so, you should be clear about taking care of the kids

and being responsible, right?

- Ji-yul. - Mom!

I asked you all to come today

to tell you what we have decided on the upcoming performance.

- I'm sorry I'm late. - Mom!

This year, we have decided to perform a musical called Red Shoes

in English at LS Art Center,

accompanied by an orchestra.

Red Shoes?

- Wow. A musical. - Where?

We'll hold a simple audition to pick the main role.

The one who plays Snow White

will be photographed by a professional photographer.

That sounds great.

Our kids will love it. But...

I don't know if boys will like it, too.

Since a girl is the main character.

I'm sure the principal thought long and hard about it.

She probably tried her best to be fair.

They performed Jack and the Beanstalk last year, right?

In the end, the kid who can sing best is at an advantage, right?

Maybe I should tell my husband and sign her up

for a musical class or a vocal music class.

Do not worry.

Costumes, singing, acting and initiative.

We'll consider various aspects.

Then it should be fair.

The audition must be fair and...

I hope you can guarantee that the audition will be fair.

We must not go through what we did two years ago.

You don't need to worry about that.

The audition will be evaluated by experts

and we will reveal the scores from every category.

I'm sure some of you have different opinions,

but I ask for your cooperation for the sake of a successful performance.

Of course.

After all, the performance is for all of us to have fun.

Isn't that right?

I don't know who will be playing Snow White,

but her mom will have a lot of work to do.

Exactly.

From practicing singing and acting, to preparing costumes...

That mom will die from all the work.

I don't want to do it.

Am I the only one who thinks so?
