Hey, get today's young radishes. They're good.
I'm not here for them.
- What is it? - Is your daughter-in-law back?
Yes. How did you know?
She bought all kinds of cosmetic products on credit at my store.
- Is that so? - I told her we don't do that,
but she rather yelled at me, saying she's Oh Bok's mother,
so I couldn't ask her to pay.
Really? How much was it?
- I'll pay. - It's 73.5 dollars, but just give me 73.
I'll pay you the whole price, 73.5 dollars.
You don't have to give me a discount.
Here you are.
I'm sorry.
Well, I thought I'd never get paid.
I'll come to buy the radishes later. Thank you.
You're welcome.
It seems like Mi Ja doesn't have money.
Then she shouldn't have bought anything.
Why would she buy something when she's broke?
Women feel nervous when their makeup products run out.
She has no one to impress. Why did she spend money on them?
Why did you insist on coming?
I want to see where my son lives.
You can't come unannounced like this.
I called you.
Are you embarrassed by me?
Why are you so haughty and cautious around them?
Do your in-laws make you uncomfortable?
I'm so embarrassed by you.
- You're embarrassed by me? - So please just leave.
Oh Bok, you shouldn't be embarrassed by your parents.
- Mother raised you wrong. - Grandma...
doesn't have much, but she always had high self-esteem.
She's a refined person who never crossed a line or offended anyone.
Why did you buy cosmetics on credit?
I didn't have cash.
- Why didn't you pay with a credit card? - I don't have any credit cards.
If I had, I wouldn't have bought them on credit.
Then you shouldn't have bought them at all.
I can starve, but I need cosmetics.
Mom.
Do you think you're beautiful?
Nobody has picked on me for my looks.
When you said you'd come back for me with a lot of money,
- it was a lie, wasn't it? - No.
I wasn't lying.
I was going to find you when I make a lot of money.
Back then,
I still had feelings left for your dad.
What?
I was going to invite you next week, so when you called me, I panicked.
I thought we should have a meal.
It doesn't have to be an invitation.
It'd only make the people who invite and get invited feel burdened.
- Is that so? - I was just wondering how my son lives.
Mother, the room over here is our room.
- Do you want to take a look? - She doesn't need to see that.
Stay there.
Still, I should look at my son's room.
Do you two use this room?
When your baby is born, you won't have room to bathe it.
They don't have to bathe the baby in the room.
- It'd be my job anyway. - He's with his in-laws...
- like he's a farmhand. - What do you mean?
Now, mothers-in-law mistreat their sons-in-law like their own sons.
Sons-in-law were considered important guests back in the day.
I'm sorry, Mrs. Gong.
If you wait for a little, dinner will be ready soon.
I'm sorry for the trouble, Mother.
It's okay. Dinner is almost ready.
Da Jung, are you just going to watch your mother setting the table?
You're right.
Her morning sickness got worse, so she can't stand the smell.
As a daughter-in-law, she should at least pretend to set the table for me.
How can you be looking at me only?
I'm sorry.
Mom, I'll help you.
No way. What if you retch more?
She's not the only one who goes through that.
Who has a baby without having morning sickness?
Didn't women use to set the table for their mothers-in-law...
despite morning sickness?
You can't play sick in front of me with your morning sickness.
I never imagined you'd do that.
Oh Bok, bring Wan Soo from school.
Okay, Mother.
You talk down to your son-in-law and make him run errands.
How fun.
You must be close to her.
You're here. I'm sorry. Something urgent came up at work.
I hope you're not starved because of me.
It's okay. Now, we can eat.
Have a seat.
Why is she saying that like it's her house?
What a rude lady.
I'll eat later. I'm not feeling well.
Okay. Get some rest in your room.
Da Jung.
You should stay at the table and help me with what I need.
You can't rest in your room.
Young people are ill-mannered these days.
We should let her rest when she wants.
Otherwise, she'd throw up at the table, which would distract us from eating.
She'd throw up?
Why don't you pick a more delicate word?
It's okay.
You're quite hilarious. I like a good sense of humor.
- Koreans lack a sense of humor, right? - Yes.
Actually, I came to see you here today...
to give you good news.
I see.
It's great news.
What is that news?
We've built a good insurance plan for those who are over 40.
An insurance plan?
Not many people know about this plan.
I'm selling these plans with a great sense of duty.
Homo hundred.
You must get this plan for your peaceful, comfortable later years.
Take a look and get the word out if you like the plan.
Get up. Stand up before Grandma scolds you.
What are you doing? You're interrupting my work.
Are you out of your mind?
What do you think you're doing?
We haven't even eaten. How could you drag me out here?
How can you ask my in-laws to buy insurance?
I even bought my makeup on credit. I should sell the plan to anyone.
Why are you humiliating me after all this time?
Humiliate you?
This is not humiliating.
It's my job.
It's humiliating because I feel that way.
- Okay? - You've got nothing.
Why do you keep saying you're embarrassed?
That's not a good habit.
You should break the habit sooner than later.
- What? - You have to work on your mindset.
The old lady did a terrible job raising you.
- Where do you think you're going? - I should get my purse.
Seriously.
- Why are you home? - What is wrong with you?
Why do you ask everyone in the neighborhood to buy insurance?
I was working.
Then why did you mention Oh Bok's father-in-law?
That's what in-laws are for.
What?
How could you trouble your in-laws?
- You can't make a living if you're picky. - What did you do for Oh Bok?
Why did you show up only to embarrass him after all these years?
You're worried sick about me embarrassing you.
I guess that means your life is going well.
- I'm not embarrassing you for fun. - What?
People keep calling me all day to see if Wan Soo really bought the insurance...
and if she's actually our in-law.
- Where are you going? - I'm going to my house for a moment.
Stay here, Da Jung.
You left me like I was a burden. Why are you embarrassing the family now?
That's what families do.
Do you think I'm joking?
I wanted to earn money and then come to get you.
But your father made it impossible for me to trust him.
- So, you ran away? - I'm a victim too!
He started to hit me.
Your father said he hit me out of love.
- What? - I thought he would beat me to death!
So, that's why I ran away.
How could I bring you into that situation?
Do you really not know where Dad is?
I do know.
He's still my husband.
How could I not know if he's alive?
He's not human.
What? He hit her out of love?
He hit his wife and said it was out of love?
Such people need to be wiped out from this world.
Oh Bok, look at me.
Calm down. What about the baby and me?
Calm down.
Oh Bok.
Where are you going at this hour?
Mother, I'm very sorry.
I'm innately unfit as Da Jung's husband.
Oh Bok.
I was wondering...
what kind of people would leave their kid with their mother...
and never even see or contact their son into adulthood.
I imagined they weren't living good lives,
but it's a lot worse than I thought.
So, where are you going?
I'm going to see my dad face to face.
Do you know where he is?
Let's go together.
I'm so embarrassed because I don't know what state he's in.
Why would you be embarrassed about anything around me?
I'm just going to go see him alone.
I need to go see this man...
who said he hit his wife out of love.
What?
Hit his wife out of love?
