My Contracted Husband, Mr. Oh (My Husband, Oh Jak-Doo / Derilnampyun Ohjakdoo / 데릴남편 오작두)

How could he leave me alone with the old ladies to pick herbs?

This must be his grandfather.

Hurry up and come out.

Yes, I'm coming.

(Episode 5: Marriage is a battle on a minefield.)

I'm sorry.

I heard you told Jak Doo that you would let him keep his place...

in exchange for living with him.

It's...

dangerous for a woman to live alone in the city.

There's more to Jak Doo than meets the eye.

- What? - He's not someone...

to live as a slave.

He's not my slave.

Anyway, don't you dare mistreat Jak Doo.

If you do, I will make you pay.

Yes.

Are you Jak Doo's relative?

I'm just an old lady that used to give them food.

Them?

Can't you trust me when I tell you something?

Why do you have to question everything?

I'm sorry.

- Oh, my. - Oh, my.

The new bride is here.

Welcome, come in.

She's here.

The new bride?

Everyone here thinks...

that Jak Doo fell in love and moved to Seoul.

You're the new bride. Do you understand?

Yes.

When you first visit your husband's family,

you have to eat everything on your plate...

- to live a happy life. Eat. - Yes.

What does that mean?

It means that you're visiting...

your husband's family for the first time.

Hurry up and eat.

Okay.

It's such a small neighborhood,

so everyone is basically family.

We're practically his relative and your in-laws.

- Eat. - Okay.

Did Jak Doo forget...

about us completely because he got married?

Why isn't he coming to see us when he's here?

He's working.

He's a busy man.

That's right.

If he wants to live with such a pretty bride,

he has to do his best at everything he does.

What's wrong with Jak Doo?

He falls a little short as a husband.

To be honest, he's not rich or capable.

He just wants to live like that.

He could have found someone better if he wanted to.

Oh, my. Look at her.

She's coming up with lies...

in case you might mistreat Jak Doo.

Jak Doo is really strong.

Couldn't you tell when he used to chop all that wood?

Don't you think so?

What?

Men should be strong, isn't that right?

Answer me.

See?

Since she's a poor judge of men,

she met a weak husband...

and became a widow at the age of 30.

You're driving me crazy...

with all your nonsense.

Just shut your mouth and eat.

How can you eat when your mouth is shut?

They're always like this, so just ignore them.

Just eat.

Okay.

Let's eat.

Why aren't you picking up the phone?

Mr. Hong wants you to come to work as soon as you see this.

It must be important.

I'm in the countryside. I'll call you when I'm back.

That can't be.

Did they go on a trip?

There's a meeting with Han Seung Joo in the afternoon.

He told me to be in front of the supermarket at 10am.

Where is he?

You did your hair.

Why is there a bug there?

Gosh, you surprised me.

It won't kill you.

Why did you scream like that?

Do you think I'm screaming because of that bug?

Then why did you? Was it because of me?

Yes, it was. So what?

Gosh, what did I do?

Scum.

What did you say?

You scum!

There's more to him than meets the eye.

He's not someone...

to live as a slave.

Is Ms. Han Seung Joo at the office?

Yes, she's at the office.

All right.

Trip, my foot.

Just because a man and a woman went somewhere together...

doesn't mean something happened between them.

A man and a woman went to the countryside and stayed the night.

That's a proper trip.

Jang Eun Jo's phone is turned off.

She said she was right up front.

She said she was parking in the parking lot.

- What's she doing? - I know, right?

She wanted you to work on this.

I told her I had nothing to do with this.

I only came here because of you.

Is she playing games with me?

Did you do something wrong to her that day?

She offered me a ride,

and I took it.

Hyuk.

It's been a while.

How have you been?

I'm good.

Do you live here?

I told you...

that...

I'd come find you.

Where are you? Are you on your way?

Yes, I'm leaving right now.

I'm really nervous right now.

I must be the only person who gets to have her first concert...

with the gayageum made by the famous Oh Geum Bok.

Thank you.

Here are your drinks.

Hyuk.

Hyuk.

Talk to me before you go.

Hyuk.

- How have you... - How have you...

You can go first.

Have you been in Seoul since then?

Right after we parted?

No, I was in the countryside.

I just came to Seoul.

Is this the first time after your grandfather died?

Yes.

It's only been 15 years, but it's changed a lot.

I'm still learning to adapt.

You've changed a lot too.

I've become a country man now.

It's easier for me to speak with a dialect.

I nearly didn't recognize you at first.

You're still the same.

And you still touch your ear when you're nervous.

Hyuk.

Are you not nervous at all?

I'm really nervous and tense.

Didn't you miss me?

Don't you want to know how I've been...

and why I came here to meet you?

Why don't you ask me anything?

You heard from Grandmother about my performance.

Why didn't you come?

You know better that there's no reason for me to go there.

When we parted,

I gave up everything.

You, Eun Jo,

and...

Gayageum too?

Yes.

I gave up everything.

- Are you married? - Yes.

I missed you every day.

Do you know how many times I've imagined...

meeting you again like this? But...

this was never in any of my imaginations.

If you had become a famous instrument maker...

and gotten married with...

- a beautiful woman... - Jang Eun Jo.

You might have forgotten because it's been a while,

but this is me.

You felt suffocated...

that you had to live in the countryside...

and make gayageum because Grandfather insisted.

That's why you came to Seoul.

You were so cool then.

I like myself better now.

I only found out what it was that I had wanted...

after...

I lost someone special to me.

You don't look good at all right now.

I understand what kind of person you want me to be,

but I'm not going to live like that.

That's why we left each other 15 years ago.

I thought that we could go back.

You told me what I couldn't say.

I think I can give up on you now.

Should I leave first?
