Are you going somewhere?

To the department store.

More shopping?

What do you mean more?

I can't go around dressed in shabby clothes.

So I'm going to buy a new dress.

What about the one you bought last time?

I can't wear that now.

Buy Jeong-hui a new dress. She's the one looking shabby.

You can buy yours later.

Why don't you go out and buy one if it bothers you so much?

I'm an adult so I need clothes to go out.

Where on earth do you go everyday?

Where do I go?

I have things to do. What's wrong with that?

Don't you care about what other people think?

Then you should lock me up in a room.

But I'm not a caged bird, you know.

How can a human being say such a thing?

What?

Are you saying that I'm not even a human?

You are a housewife but you know nothing about housekeeping.

Hmph! Find yourself a good housewife then.

Why don't you just divorce me?

How can you say that?

I'll leave this house. That's what I'll do!

I'll leave this house!

It's a good thing that the young Miss is not here.

Where are you going, mother?

To buy something.

I want to go, too.

No.

Yes, I want to go!

Why, you!

Stop nagging! I said no!

You are not going anywhere!

I'm going to buy you a new dress.

Really?

Yes.

Where do you live?

Right behind Jongno Police Station.

All right, sir.

May I help you?

How much is this?

16 won.

16 won?

That's so cheap.

Don't you have anything more expensive?

Yes, we do.

This is the most expensive one that we have.

That's a bit better.

It's a new item.

How much is it?

30 won.

I'll take it.

Thank you, ma'am.

Oh, dear! My purse was just here!

A pickpocket must've taken it.

I thought it was stolen. But you kindly found it for me.

Why are you looking at me like that?

You are so beautiful.

You are embarrassing me.

But it's true.

Here, have a drink.

You are a shameless one. Why did you come home?

You're Jeong-hui's mother, aren't you?

Are you implying that I did something wrong?

What? Who would want a wife like you?

I'm divorcing you!

Get out!

Divorce?

Well, you've got it all figured out.

You, bitch!

Father, what's wrong?

You're home, mother.

I've put up with you until now for Jeong-hui's sake.

Father, don't be like that to mother.

Listen to Jeong-hui. Don't you feel ashamed, you harlot?

Mother.

Mother.

Still, you're not even sorry! Get out!

Get out of my sight!

You are not going with her.

Don't cry.

Don't cry, dear.

Why aren't you playing with your friends?

Did you have a fight?

No.

What's wrong? Tell me.

Come on, you are a good girl.

Tell me.

My mother left and she's not coming back.

Isn't that Ae-sun?

I think Someone I know saw me.

Who was it?

A friend of Jeong-hui's father.

So what if he saw you? Are you having regrets?

No.

Honey.

Yes?

I'll never forgive you if you leave me.

Why would you say such a thing?

I'm just saying.

How could I ever leave you?

Don't you know that I can't live without you?

I'll never leave you.

I know.

But a man's heart cannot be trusted.

Why are you so deep in thought?

I bet you are relieved now that she's gone.

Yes, but I feel bad for Jeong-hui without a mother.

She cries for her mother in her sleep every night.

Mother.

Mother.

Mother, is that you?

Mother.

Jeong-hui, are you asleep?

Mother.

Hello, sir.

Let me take your bag.

It's all right.

You always stay at hotels like this.

This way, sir.

He's loaded with money. I can smell it.

Hmm.

Will you help me?

Of course.

- Did you just get up? - Yes.

- You must've been tired. - I guess so.

I had strange dreams last night.

Honey.

- Yes? - Come over here.

Why?

Do you run a laundry business?

What? Who?

You.

- Me? - Yes.

A laundry? What a nonsense.

Isn't your address 120 Gwanghwamun?

It is.

I called your place yesterday and it was a laundry shop.

You must've made a mistake.

No, I'm sure I didn't.

Then my servant must've made a mistake.

Really?

What are you trying to say?

You are angry over nothing.

Are you mad, honey?

There's a dance performance tonight. Why don't we go?

I have things to do tonight.

So you won't go?

Look now.

You're being cold to me already. Don't you care about me?

Hey, stop fooling with me.

A 31 year old virgin? I don't believe it.

I'm telling you the truth.

Anyway I'm not getting married again.

But you should think of Jeong-hui. She needs a mother.

Many people remarry and live happily.

It's just the two of us but we are doing okay.

Jeong-hui, come and join us.

No, thank you. I'll eat at home.

Oh, dear! Why are you crying?

Did you have a fight? Why are you crying?

Why are you crying?

Hello, master.

What's wrong? Why are you crying?

Did she have a fight?

I don't know. She started crying as soon as she walked in.

Why are you crying?

Talk to me.

Don't cry. Tell your father everything.

Hush now.

I envy Hye-ok.

She gets to eat with her mother.

Why do you speak like that, huh?

Your mother left you. What good is a mother like that?

You must not speak like that again.

Don't speak of your mother anymore.

Never again.

I'm sorry, father.

Good girl.

I won't do it again.

Good, don't cry anymore.

Anyone come to see me?

He is waiting in the lounge.

Hey, how is it going?

It's tomorrow night. You know, right?

Come in.
