You did great.

The reason I asked to meet...

As you know, I was looking after Jin Ju for a few years.

I think we should hold her 49th-day memorial service.

- She's not dead. - But there are no signs of her...

You think I don't know my own kid?

How would he know? He never even raised her.

She's not the type to throw her life away.

She's putting on an act.

Would you write a suicide note just as an act, sir?

Her eyes were sparkling.

With eyes like that,

she wouldn't take her own life.

Is he a face reader now?

You even brought cake?

Where'd you get this cake? It's amazing.

I'm not telling.

Just let me know when you're craving it.

What if I crave it every day?

I'll bring it to you every day.

Do you have so much time on your hands?

I have Manager Yoon and Mr. Kim, the driver.

It's time to let go of Jin Ju.

In the end, everyone goes their separate ways.

Look at me. I'm doing just fine without my parents.

Pickles, did you hear that?

We'll take good care of you.

With love.

I can't believe I have my own dog.

Thanks, Yong Joong.

You're the one who made me want a dog.

I wasn't really interested before.

Just let me know if it ever becomes a bother.

Once I get my heart set on something, I don't change my mind.

I'm not sure if that's good or bad.

I guess his feelings for Momo won't change either.

Is that a bad thing?

I don't know.

So you think it's one of my flaws.

Nobody's perfect.

What are my flaws? I'll fix them if you tell me.

I've never thought about it.

I don't think you have any. None at all.

But aren't flaws what make us human?

Are you saying I'm human, or that you aren't?

Interpret it how you want.

Well, if I'm the one who's human, that means I have flaws you can point out.

So do you consider yourself not human?

To be honest, there are times I feel less than human.

I had to live that way to get by.

Nothing ever came easy for me.

Like cracking a whip on my own soul?

I guess I was always very hard on myself.

That doesn't make you less human.

It's not like you were a burden to others.

You just did your absolute best.

From now on, you should take care of yourself, too.

I know what you mean.

You deserve love,

and recognition, my little lady.

- Would you like an Americano? - I've already had several cups.

How about a small 49th-day memorial for Jin Ju, just among ourselves?

- Bye-bye. - Bye.

Goodbye.

Her "father" won't hold the service, claiming she's alive.

Can you believe it?

And the police have already closed the case.

He must not want to believe it.

Should we just do it with her memorial tablet?

We should probably have something she wore, though.

I wonder if Momo will come.

Hey, Ba Ra.

- Is this a good time to talk? - Of course.

I talked it over with James,

and we're holding a 49th-day memorial for Jin Ju.

I was calling to see if you could come.

My 49th-day memorial?

But no pressure if you don't want to.

When is it?

Saturday, 2 p.m. at Eunkyungsa Temple.

Jin Ju was always so good to you.

She really was.

- The temple in Gapyeong? - That's the one.

I'll drive you.

So you're coming?

Yes.

It's not like she was just anybody.

We should leave by noon, then.

Got it.

Thanks.

Don't mention it.

The articles are all over the news sites. Have you seen them?

Yes. The trolls are having a field day.

I have to write one too. My editors...

Write whatever you want. It's okay.

Go ahead and make it even harsher.

I know everything there is to know about Momo.

Why so flustered?

We were engaged, you know.

That was a difficult surgery, so pull yourself together.

Yes.

And stop walking on eggshells around me.

Okay.

Open.

Look.

Deity,

is this really happening?

Yong Joong.

I came to pick you up.

Pickles!

You're so cute.

That's heavy. Your shoulders are going to get lopsided.

You can take my other car today.

You're just asking for rumors.

Tell them you found a sugar daddy.

I'll walk him a bit. You go on up.

- Why? - Because that's heavy and in the way.

Right.

Let's go.

They say dogs take after their owners, so who do you think is his owner?

Should we try it? See who he comes to?

No, don't put him on the spot.

I might have been hurt if you'd said hi to Pickles first.

Come on, you're not that petty.

I'd be hurt. It's not about being petty.

Your heart is as big as the ocean.

Spoken like a true reporter.

Most people in Gen MZ wouldn't even know that expression.

Am I laying it on too thick today?

You're always laying it on thick.

Yong Joong.

What did you do?

This night.

I will send the fireflies of that day.

Near your.

Window.

Pane.

I don't think I'll ever forget tonight.

It means.

I love you.

I remember.

When we first met.

And so.

Whenever I close my eyes.

I go to the most.

Distant place.

I guess I'll have to make lots of memories with you.

But you can't force memories. That doesn't count.

It wouldn't be forced.

Were you a good son? Or a rebel?

A bit of both?

Well, to me, you were the sweetest guy in the world.

I love you.

Pickles. She just blew off my "I love you."

I chewed it into tiny pieces and swallowed.

I'm filled to the brim with love.

If I say even one word, I'm afraid some of it might spill out.

- Why the sigh? - This must be how dads feel.

You really haven't dated anyone all this time, have you?

If you had, some other guy would be next to you right now, not me.

No guy in his right mind could ever leave you.

That kind of sounds like an insult.

Don't you go flirting with anyone but me.

Am I flirting? Is that what I'm doing?

- No. - You said you didn't see me as a woman.

You said I was your little sister.

Is that something you'd say to your little sister?

- That's not what I meant. - What about me blowing off your love?

And calling me a flirt just for winking at you?

To me, it's a wink,

but other guys might see it as you flirting.

Not everyone's as innocent as me, you know.

Right, you're just overflowing with purity.

I've had my fill of pure, innocent love, thanks.

So go pour it all out on Momo to your heart's content.

Geum Ba Ra.

Are you really that mad?

Sorry. I didn't grow up with sisters, so I don't really get it.

Didn't you say you dated older girls in high school?

- Twice. - And Momo?

It's just a one-sided crush.

At last year's Appreciation Night,

was Momo so captivating

that you're still not over her?

What was so great about her?

That she's pretty?

Or a good dancer?

I don't know,

it was like an electric shock.

Like a

jolt.

In your heart?

In your body?

If I'd had no self-control,

I would have held her.

Or grabbed her hand and ran off with her.

It was that intense?

I can't hide anything from you.
