My Little Baby (마이 리틀 베이비)

Final Episode 16

Dad, hold on just a little longer!

You're being transformed into a princess right now!

Oh, really?

Year 2020 - Aigoo!

Our Eun Ae was turning me into a princess, huh?

Yeah!

How do I look? Am I pretty?

Yeah! Really pretty! - Wow!

Our Eun Ae looks like a princess today, too!

Are you Cinderella or Snow White today?

I'm Princess Aurora!

Princess Aurora?

People say that the difficulties in life are in the choices we make.

To be more precise, the difficulties are in the big and small opportunities

that find their way continuously into our lives which we have to choose.

Cha Jeong Han.

Four years ago, an opportunity came to me that could change my life.

I guess you're really ready to be a parent now.

You look so serious.

You're not going to be a bachelor anymore on paper. Are you sure you won't regret it?

To be honest, while raising Eun Ae,

I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel burdened sometimes.

But my sister taught me that once the child is yours, she becomes a gift, not a burden.

When I've received such a beautiful gift, why would I regret it?

Right, Eun Ae?

Now I'll become your dad instead of your uncle and protect you till the end.

Let's live well.

Yes, Jang Hoon. What's going on?

What? From Singapore?

Yes. Remember you applied for the Interpol investigator position four years ago?

The list has come up, and you're the prime candidate!

Congratulations, Sunbaenim!

It's something you've been waiting a while for.

I think you'll be flying out soon!

What's wrong? - I think I might be leaving to work as an Interpol investigator...

Becoming an Interpol investigator was an opportunity that I'd been waiting a while for,

and people told me to take that opportunity

for my own benefit and leave Eun Ae for a short time.

But it didn't take long for me to realize one important fact.

I could choose to work for the Interpol or not,

but leaving Eun Ae was a choice I didn't have.

And like that, I became Eun Ae's real dad.

Family

Eun Ae. - Ap-pa (dad)

Did you just say dad?

Hye, Min! Min! Hurry up and come out for a second!

Hey! Eun Ae called me dad! - Aigoo.

Have you been making stuff up with Eun Ae's gibberish again?

No, she really said dad this time!

Watch. Eun Ae, say dad. Dad! Dad!

Pa. - See?!

You heard that, right? You heard her say dad, right?

Wow! She seriously... didn't say dad.

I think she said up-puh (turn over).

Are you getting jealous right now?

Eun Ae, say uncle as late as possible.

About when you're 32.

Who is it?

Ah, seriously that kid...

We're here, Detective Cha! - We're here!

Oh, what brings you by?

We came to congratulate you on officially becoming a dad.

Please sit down. Sit down.

How does it feel to go from being a bachelor to becoming a dad overnight?

It must feel a little different than when you were going out of your mind trying to raise her.

It still hasn't quite set in yet.

Of course.

I carried my baby in my stomach for 10 months,

but being called a mom was so foreign to me that it took a month before I called myself that.

Then was Hyungnim just born to be a dad?

He says dad at least a hundred times a day!

I've heard it so much, it's embedded in my ears.

I'll clear those ears out for you,

so hurry up and bring some coffee. - Three Americanos,

and how about some refreshing orange juice as a pregnancy special?

Since a refreshing cafe owner is giving it to me, anything is okay with me!

You have such good sense!

Just as expected, Beom Soo noonim's judge of character is on another level.

Eun Ae, how does it feel to have a dad? Do you love it?

She'd be so much happier if she had a mom, too. Don't you think?

Right! When are you getting married? You have to give Eun Ae a mom!

If you're going to get married, do it after I give birth and fully recover.

Since I'm delivering at an old age,

a proper postnatal care should take about...three months.

Why are you being like this?

Talking about marriage is still...

If you can't ask yourself, do you want me to check and see if she's thinking about marriage?

Well, if Ms. Jo wants to check and see, I won't stop you.

You can never get married!

That bastard,

he can't even take care of himself, so why did he adopt her?

Ye Seul, raising someone's niece

and someone's child are completely different.

We live in a world where when you say that you're a stepmother,

people already look at you with daggers in their eyes.

How could I bear to see you being treated that way?

Why are you talking about marriage all of a sudden?

Jeong Han and I are not at that stage yet, so stop pointlessly worrying.

But you will get to that level in the end, so how is this a pointless worry?!

Even if you make your own life choices,

I'm your parent.

My child diving into hell,

I won't just standby and watch!

Year 2020 - Oh, how scary!

Yeah, you go check the master bedroom, and you go check the bathroom.

Yes.

Kidnapping a baby in broad daylight...

There are no ill-relationships and no money-related matters either.

Based on the circumstances, it looks to be just a random kidnapping case. Where's the baby mom?

Ah, she arrived at the hospital, but she's still unconscious.

Since the baby was kidnapped while she was sleeping, I'm sure the shock was unimaginable.

We can't waste one single minute.

We only know that the baby is about 7 or 8 months old, right?

Should I call the hospital one more time?

Hold on.

The poop is very watery. And seeing how it smells medicinal,

I'm sure the baby was given medicine because of symptoms from intestinal inflammation.

If the baby continues to cry and has diarrhea,

the criminal will have no choice but to take the baby to the hospital.

Of course.

Notify all the pediatric ERs in Seoul.

7 to 8 months old with symptoms of intestinal inflammation.

Also, the baby is wearing a top with penguins on it.

Sunbaenim, how would you know what the baby is wearing?

Everything in the closet was a set.

It's the baby's mom's style. - Wow, you're something.

You guys try raising a baby. This is just basic knowledge.

Ah, our Eun Ae is almost done at daycare.

Wow, you look so cool today! - Ah, yes. Hello.

Wow, Eun Ae's dad looks great in a uniform!

You said that was over the top when the school pictures were being taken and ran away like your bottom was going to fall out.

But you look the best you've ever looked!

Ah, it's because Eun Ae asked me to wear this today.

What choice do I have? I have to do what my daughter says.

In the end, you're a girl's daddy, too.

Yoon Ji's dad looks at me indifferently,

but his eyes are full of love when it comes to Yoon Ji.

Ah, the hospital must have told you the sex of your baby! A daughter? A son?

Ta-da! It's a daughter! I'll have to stop having babies after this one.

Of course. - Daddy!

Ah! - Oh, Beom Soo!

My princess is here.

How do I look today? Cool?

Yeah! You're really cool!

You look like a prince!

Here.

Huh? Where did you get that candy? Did your teacher give it to you?

Beom Soo gave it to me as a present. - Beom Soo?

Our Beom Soo gave Eun Ae the candy he doesn't even give his dongseng.

Now that I think about it, he's always next to Eun Ae in the newsletter photos.

Beom Soo must like our Eun Ae a lot, huh? - Yes!

Ah, and you answer with so much energy.

Beom Soo, can you read and write now? Eun Ae can even speak a little English, too.

Ah, of course he can.

Beom Soo, read Ahjussi's name here.

Here. - Ja Jeon Guh

His name' is ja-jeon-guh (bicycle)!

No, it's not, Ja Jeon Guh.

Cha Jeong Han. Cha, like car.

Cha Jeon Guh!

He's not smart but seems good-natured.

Beom Soo's mom isn't the type to be hard on her daughter-in-law either.

I should keep an eye on him for now.

But where's Ha Eun's mom?

We have to get there before the opening of the exhibition.

Being a popular educational consultant, she has no time. Her husband will probably come instead.

I am fully booked with lectures until next month! Do your job properly!

Oh, I'm sorry. I'll be right out with Chan Yool. Just wait a little bit.

I'm sorry! Just a second!

Woah, what a driven mom.

Most working moms use nannies, but she does everything herself.

Ah, with her personality, she wouldn't be able to leave her child in someone else's care.

Let's go ahead and wait at the parking lot.

Here.

Try it. We got some new beans in, and the response has been pretty good.

It smells really good, and it has a clean aftertaste, too.

No wonder your coffee is famous.

You keep opening up new branches, but I guess no girlfriend yet?

If it's because you're busy with work, do you want me to introduce you to someone?

Just a sec.

Hi sweetie, I was about to call you.

Of course, I miss you.

Okay, I'll be right there. Wait just a little bit.

What? You had a girlfriend?

Dating someone without our permission is totally illegal!

When are you going to introduce her to us?

It's hard enough just getting to see her myself, so why would I introduce her to you guys?

I have to go see my baby, so you take your time. I'll be going.

Oh, Chan Yool! Look! You look so handsome!

Eun Ae, which picture do you like the best?

I like this one.

I like this one!

Huh?

I like that one the best, too.

Congratulations on the photo exhibition, Hyungnim.

You came? - Uncle!

Aigoo, our Eun Ae. You missed your uncle that much?

I didn't see you for a whole week.

I even bought a new outfit so I'd look good for you. How is it? Do you like it? - Yeah!
