I almost fell!

I just picked them up. I found them here.

Take them off.

I saw them first. They're mine.

Hey, I was waiting here for 30 minutes.

Hey!

What are you doing?

I was watching you from the other side. I was playing with you.

- Don't lie! - You counted to four just now. No?

But still, I found them first!

- I found them first! - Let go!

Hey!

Hey!

Choi Young-mi, is that you?

You're playing a joke on me, huh?

THE RED SHOES

Tae-soo, let's eat.

Honey.

Wow. Wonderful, Tae-soo!

Come here, darling.

- Whose baby girl are you, Tae-soo? - Daddy's.

Dance once more.

Tae-soo!

It's still raw.

I wanna wear my red shoes!

- Just once for today. - No!

Tae-soo, please stop this. Mommy's late.

I wanna wear my red shoes!

Take Tae-soo to her private lessons.

At two today.

Can't you do it just for once today?

Tae-soo's shoes are here. Bring them to her.

Aren't you too old to like red?

It doesn't suit you.

Train Tae-soo.

She's old enough to go to her lessons alone.

Keep an eye on her from behind.

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo didn't come today.

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo!

Tae-soo!

Like it?

These shoes look better on you.

Mom, I'm hungry. Let's go home.

Okay.

Tae-soo, wanna sleep next to mommy tonight?

- Why? - Just because.

Mommy wants to sleep with Tae-soo.

Mommy will read you a fairy tale, okay?

So that Tae-soo won't have any scary dreams.

But it's more fun when daddy reads it to me.

Please come inside.

This is the living room.

I'll replace that for you.

And over here is the kitchen.

- Where's the bathroom? - Ah, yes. The toilet's this way.

- Have anywhere else available? - Pardon?

Well,

you can't find a place this big with the money you're offering.

Plus, the subway's close to here.

You old hag!

I told you not to come in here!

I should run you out of the basement, too.

She lives in the basement. She's not a bad person though.

She's a bit deranged. Hurry and come out.

So pretty...

Do you like it, Tae-soo?

Han Tae-soo! I don't mind you practicing,

but don't run up and down like that.

- Still not done? - The switch!

Lots of things are clogged up in there.

Stuff that you want.

Like Tae-soo, money, glamorous shoes.

But still, there's no husband.

Your wound's okay now,

but your eyes have gone bad with age.

What are you talking about? No way.

- I must be temporarily near-sighted. - Probably so.

It's all because of that bastard.

Women who have good jobs should stay single like me.

Kim Mi-hee. He's Tae-soo's father, not "bastard".

And never mention that bastard in front of me again.

So when will your new clinic open?

Construction started today,

so about three weeks until the interior's done.

So I was wondering...

Do you need money?

I see you didn't get enough alimony.

It's that self-pride of yours that will do you wrong, you know.

If a divorced woman raises her kid alone and even has no money,

it's pitiful, I tell you.

Marketing for your eye clinic?

That was corny.

My name's Cho In-chul. I'm the interior designer.

I just moved in.

It's okay if I stay here till the construction's done, right?

Are you doing it all yourself?

How long will it take?

When I get the vibe, about two weeks? But I can't guarantee it.

What's "vibe"?

A "feel".

I'm in a bit of a hurry,

so can't it be any faster?

Slipping a brush into someone's hand, and asking for art immediately

would be irresponsible.

Don't worry so much. I'll start as soon as I get the feel.

Also, I noticed that the budget is low.

It's not that I'm complaining.

It's just that I'll have to brainstorm more.

Are you always this slimy?

No. There's no particular problem.

Can you just send me someone else?

Then please do it soon, thanks.

Far-sighted due to age?

Mommy. You bought new shoes again?

No.

- I wanna try them on, too. - You can't!

Mommy, I hate you! Your feet are ugly!

How can you wear these?

You could hurt your ankles and not dance again.

Let's hurry to bed.

Lift up your chins and turn. And to the left.

One, two, three, plie.

Pas plie, one. Turn, and one, two,

three, four, go back.

Plie. The opposite way. And turn and turn.

Look ahead. Towards me. One, jump, three, four.

Go back and run.

Tae-soo, give it to Gyu-won.

Gyu-won! Next person come to the front.

Quickly.

What do you think?

Do you like it?

So then, do I keep the job?

I heard that you couldn't work with me.

Has your "vibe" come?

Anyway, do you eat with your left hand or right?

I need to know which hand you'll use in order to arrange things.

- I'm left-handed. - You must've found things uncomfortable.

I'll keep in mind for the design that you're a lefty.

Anyway, will you manage by eating just that?

What's wrong with ramen noodles? I have a rice roll, too.

I'm sorry if I'm being rude,

but you're not homeless, right?

I have a house and I lived with a woman.

But we're broken up now.

Now I don't have anyone waiting at home for me.

I have no complaints about living like this.

Will your husband be upset if I asked you to cook for me?

I'm not implying anything.

Just that I miss homemade cooking.

I have to go. I have to meet my daughter.

Wait!

What are you doing? Please stop it.

It's image association. That's the examination room.

Hold still.

This is the waiting room.

- We're done for today. - Good work everyone.

- Don't drink too much tonight. - Okay!

And for over here, purple would be nice.

A light purple is easy on the eyes for an eye clinic.

Also, I did some work on the logo design.

What? Is there something on my face?

Now I see your face more clearly.

My eyes have gotten better.

Would you like to come over for dinner?

I'm inviting you.

Did you get your husband's permission?

I live alone with my daughter.

I'm divorced.

Think you're being tested?

There's no need to worry. It's delicious.

Tae-soo! What's wrong with you?

Dad was here during the day.

- Tae-soo, go to your room. - Mommy.

Now! Didn't you hear me?

No, every time I bring up dad, you get mad.

- That's because it's a lie. - It's not a lie!
