Mom's Diary, My Ugly Duckling (My Little Old Boy / 미운 우리 새끼)

The chairs changed again.

Did you eat?

Did you enjoy the meal?

I did. I was hungry.

You were hungry. - Right.

Your son. You talked a little bit about him last week.

He's really funny, and being with him...

must be fun, lovely, and happy.

But it still must be tough. - It's tough.

Have you gotten over that phase?

The toughest time has passed.

He's four years old,

but he's quite big.

He's really big for a four-year-old.

He's always in the 99th percentile.

He's very heavy and big. He weighs 21kg.

That's how much an average grade one girl weighs.

But he's still four.

So he asks me to hug him.

I have to carry a 21kg baby.

He's like me.

Jang Hoon. - When I was little,

that's how my mother always felt.

I looked like I was old enough for school,

but I was always home.

"Is there something wrong?" - He was always home.

People thought that.

It's because he's really tall,

but he's young. - He's too big for his age.

Can you brag about your son?

What does he do best?

He's a genius. - He must be a genius.

Yes. There are a lot of things he does well.

Did he do anything that made you suspect that he might be a genius?

He learned to speak really fast.

Boys are usually slower.

Right. - He learned to speak fast.

People might not believe this.

You already don't believe it. - Right.

All right. Tell us anyway. - I'm serious.

My friend said he should be listed in the Guinness Book of Records.

That's amazing. - How early did he learn to speak?

Before he turned one,

when I sat him down to feed him,

he said, "Water, water." He asked for water.

"Water, water." He asked for water.

For soup, he said, "Soup, soup."

He learned all the one syllable words.

Before he was one? - When I told people that,

they said... - My gosh.

They said babies never speak anything other than...

"Mom" and "Dad" before the first birthday.

But I have a video of it.

But it's the same as this.

I've been presenting "Animal Farm" for a long time.

"My dog speaks!"

Right. Right. - We get that a lot.

I saw that the other day.

They would say the dog can say "Mom".

The crew would go there to film.

This happened about 10 times.

When they go and film, the dog does this.

"The dog called for mom."

Your son must've asked for water like this.

But to the mother, - Right.

it sounds like "soup".

Right.

I think I need to check the video once again.

That's why they say... - To the mother...

mothers lie several times a day.

Right. - Right.

Right. - Fine. I'll say something else.

He sleeps well. - That's...

Someone... - That's the best.

He's a good son. - My friend told me this.

She said that was 1 of the 3 best lucks I can have.

When I was raising Soo Hong,

he slept well,

ate well, and played well. - He was a good baby.

Tony was very good. - He was good.

Tony must've been good.

I never had to put him on my back.

He was such a good baby.

When you see the baby, you know his personality.

If the baby is fussy,

he grows up to be a fussy man. - Right.

How was Gun Mo?

Was he good? - Raising Gun Mo...

was like raising 10 children.

That's how it felt. - I see.

It was really tough.

That's why Gun Mo is still all over the place.

He's all over the place. - He's all over the place.

He's always restless.

When were you happy that you got married?

Because we are both actors,

when I ask him something or consult him about my work,

he gives me advice as someone who is the closest person to me.

While eating and having a few drinks,

we can talk about those things. I am happy about that.

When you were thinking about doing the drama "Fate and Fury",

did you consult with Byung Hun?

I did. I've been...

mostly acting in romantic comedies. I always played...

a lovely and cute character.

I wanted to show a different side of me.

That's why I chose a drama with a serious title.

It sounds serious, doesn't it?

It's about revenge and ambition.

I hope he would come here once.

Since you came on the show, he will come on the show too.

That's how it's been with the other couples.

He is really funny.

He's really funny.

He really loves making jokes.

He must be fun then.

I want to see him once.

Right. - If our drama gets...

the viewer rating of more than 15 percent, I will tell him to come.

I should watch it.

Your new drama? - Yes.

15 percent.

He is very busy. - He is busy.

He often goes abroad.

He finished shooting a drama, so he's not doing anything.

I see.

What will you do if it really goes over 15 percent?

I am sure he would do it for me.

You have to talk to him about this.

We will make sure to watch it. - You promised.

You should tell him. - They have a fun life.

You should tell him to prepare to come here.

If the drama gets more than 15 percent viewer rating,

it means it is as popular as "Mr. Sunshine".

You should come here.

Let's do this.

We haven't seen this house in a long time.

It's Soo Hong. - It's my Soo Hong.

He really loves watching TV. - Whenever I see him,

my heart sinks.

He's playing well.

He... - "He's playing well."

He can't play.

A mirror ball.

Oh, dear.

He looks very tired today. - He's 49 years old.

Did he play hard? - "Did he play hard?"

Well... - He looks like he always plays.

He doesn't have much time. Soon, he will turn 50.

Yes. - I know.

What will he do?

He looks so young though.

Yes. - Right.

He looks like a good man too.

He's good.

Why did I get so many messages?

What is it?

He must be busy working.

Hi, Soo Hong. - Hey.

Yes. Congratulations. - Hey.

Thank you.

Why did you bother to send me a cake?

Oh, it's nothing big.

Is it his birthday? - Is it his birthday?

You... - It's nothing.

It's your 50th birthday.

Wait. You are still 49. - Right.

It's his birthday. - Hey, watch what you are saying!

I am very... No.

You are not turning 50 yet.

I am not turning 50.

Right. - He is still 49.

Jin Yong.

Thank you, Jin Yong.

You are the first one I am talking to on my birthday.

Really? - Yes.

That's a little sad.

Most of the messages...

80 out of 100 messages are from men.

It's so sad.

My gosh. Those are useless messages.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

My son is still far from turning 50.

My gosh.

Once you turn 50, you are in big trouble.

I feel like he's not that old,

but he's already 50.

By the way, in the past, when I was young,

I thought a 50-year-old man...

was incredibly old.

Like a grandfather. - Right.

It was considered old then. - Right.
