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

It's my son.

It's Soo Hong.

Soo Hong always looks neat.

My goodness.

I am visiting a new house.

He must be visiting someone's house.

It was my first time to buy flowers.

I wonder if my friend would like it.

Flowers. - He bought flowers.

I hope my friend likes flowers.

My goodness.

He got flowers,

so he must be visiting a lady's house.

Whose house is he going? - Right.

Right.

It's here.

Lovely. Lovely smell.

Hey. - Hey.

My goodness.

What? - Whose house is it?

I don't know. - Isn't it Jeong Su's?

Jeong Su's? No. - Right?

His house has that door too.

Who is it?

Hey.

Hey. - My goodness.

What is it? - This is what you asked for.

I bought the coffee you asked.

Thank you so much.

It's him. - Right.

It was Suk Chun. - It was Suk Chun.

They've been friends for 24 years.

You bought flowers. - This is great.

I thought... - Yes?

the man who brings flowers would rank first.

That's me.

That's me. That's me, my friend.

You are a man of good sense.

My gosh. - My mom's here.

Hello, ma'am. - I watched you on TV a lot.

Hello, ma'am. - I am his mom.

Nice to meet you, ma'am. - She's Suk Chun's mom.

I am his friend. - Yes. Nice to meet you.

She resembles Suk Chun. - She does.

She looks young for her age. - Right.

She looks young. Very healthy. - With his mom...

She's very healthy.

She looks very healthy. - Yes.

She does. - Mom.

He's not married either.

He's not married.

He's not married either. - Right.

I am not married either. I am a troublesome son too.

I told Suk Chun you two must be very close.

You are the same.

Yes. - My goodness.

They are both not married. - They are both not married.

He's not married?

They are both not married.

Since it's a housewarming party,

I brought something. - What is this?

What did you bring?

He... - Flowers are enough.

Why did you bother bringing this? - It's such a hassle.

This is...

What is it?

Suk Chun, come. - What is it?

I use this at home.

This is a really good gift. - Is it what I asked for?

Yes. That's it.

I will assemble it too. - No way.

I will unbox it for you, ma'am.

I love how powerful it is. - I'll get a knife.

It's okay, ma'am. - That's amazing.

I got it. I will assemble it too. - Okay.

It's nice.

That's incredible.

It's incredible.

This is...

You should get excited.

I am happy that you like it.

Give me a tour of the house. - This is...

Right. Right.

This house is so lovely and stylish.

What is this room for?

This is where I read my script.

It will be my study room. - My goodness.

You will put a computer here. - Right.

What's this? - It's a safe.

It doesn't have a special meaning.

That's such a big safe. - My brother-in-law...

was getting rid of it,

so I got it from him. - This is amazing.

Do you want it open? - Can I see the inside?

It's such a huge safe.

A safe.

Nobody will be able to steal that.

That must be really heavy.

I'd forgotten about everything.

This is... I see.

There's nothing much in here.

This is important. - Certification of Ownership.

Yes. - What's that?

This is my treasure box.

This safe the record of...

Yes. - your history.

What is this?

What's this?

Some people buy a gold calf. - It's a gold turtle.

I have this.

I went to a singing competition show and received this.

Is it this big?

My goodness.

It's incredible, isn't it? - It's empty inside.

It's empty inside. - It's empty inside.

Why would he go through another person's safe?

Right. - Why would he do that?

It's strange to go through someone's safe.

Why would he go through his friend's safe?

Usually you wouldn't reveal your safe to anyone.

You wouldn't normally show it to anyone.

Right.

You should keep this. - I recently found it.

It's here. - What's this?

What's that?

Is it an award I got?

This is... If ever...

I get into an accident and die,

Maybe, it's a will. - My goodness.

this is the application form for the charnel house.

You got this in 2003?

Yes. I nearly died at that time.

My goodness. - Oh, dear.

Yes. I nearly died at that time.

I came out in 2000,

and I kept having bad thoughts.

There was a time. - That's when you didn't have work.

Right. Right.

Why would he say such a sad thing?

My goodness.

There's nothing in here.

Let's stop seeing here.

Okay.

Great. Why did you prepare so many things?

You brought so much yakbab.

What's this?

Are these blue crabs?

Yes. I am going to cook blue crabs.

Are you okay with blue crabs? - I'd love them.

They must be in season.

They are in season now.

We always cooked stew with them.

But today, I thought I would serve Mom the food with my own style.

I will help you. I will help you if you are cooking.

Chef Hong's... - Right.

food is incredible. - He's a good cook.

He's good. - Yes.

He cooks well too.

Please open these. - Okay.

I should help him. My goodness.

Suk Chun is a professional chef.

Yes, he is.

Aren't you relieved seeing me?

You know that there's a single man...

just like Suk Chun.

I'm in the same position as him.

My goodness. You are the same.

You are in the same position now...

Yes. - until now.

Aren't you relieved that there are many other sons...

who are single?

Don't you feel relieved? - I feel relieved.

Right. I feel a little relieved.

Right. - My goodness.

She's relieved.

Mothers can feel that.

So I... - People are like that.

You don't want to go through it alone.

When you see other people going through the same thing,

you feel relieved.

She talks well. - "My son's not the only one."

"They are not married either. So it's all right."

My goodness. - To be honest, yes.

I understand, ma'am.

You get slightly comforted.

He comforted all the mothers in this world.

Suk Chun is the youngest, isn't he?

He's the youngest.

He had three elder sisters.

Right.

My parents-in-law worried a lot...

because I kept giving birth to daughters.

She was ill-treated. - Yes I was.

Did you get ill-treated?

At the time, daughters-in-law were treated well...

only if they have a son...

on the first try.

But you gave birth to three daughters in a row.

Yes. I had three daughters in a row.

So my parents-in-law weren't happy.
