Be My Dream Family (In My Wildest Dreams / Sokado Ggumgyeol / 속아도 꿈결 )

Hey... Geu Roo.

Yes?

Then...

How about you move to the US with me?

Well, the publishing firm I'll be joining...

is also looking for an editor.

The one who scouted me...

and overlooks the entire market in Asia is Korean.

That person asked me...

if I knew of anyone whom I could recommend.

Of course, I know that things are going well at Arang now,

and I also know that you're happy there.

But it'd be nice to see a bigger world and do new things.

That's why I'm going.

Marketing-wise, the market here is very limited...

because people don't read much.

You were very disappointed too.

Even if it's a great book by a talented author you discovered,

it'd often go out of print after the first edition,

and that has upset you in the past.

But if you come with me,

you'll be able to introduce books by all the great Korean authors...

to the US... No, even to Europe.

What do you say?

How long have you been thinking about this?

Well, I heard about it a while ago.

But your mother isn't well.

And most importantly, you've been all over the place.

Okay, I'll think about it.

Let's eat first.

Okay.

Okay, I'll give you my answer.

- Already? Think about it more... - I won't go.

I don't want to go to the US.

Of course,

I know that I can't go just because I want to.

I'll just get an interview with the company,

but no.

You know, I have...

my own life and my family.

And you have your own life.

We've entered each other's life, and it was really nice.

And I like you a lot, but...

Okay.

You don't have to say more.

I know...

that your family matters the most to you.

Right. I can't expect you to leave with me...

when your mother isn't well.

It'll be too much to ask.

I know all that,

but I still had to ask you...

because I was desperate.

I won't be clingy though.

We don't have time to drown in despair.

Let's spend lots of time together.

Like we've been doing,

we'll chat a lot, hold each other whenever we can,

and look each other in the eye.

We'll do that until the day you leave.

- Honey! She'll be here shortly! - Really?

She's on her way.

Where is she?

Just five minutes away. Where's the envelope?

Here.

My gosh, we can finally pay Mother back.

I know, finally.

We can sleep better at night now that we've cleared our debt.

Hey, where are you?

We can't make it. We'll be left out again.

Why not?

You said you'd stop by before the shoot.

I don't know. Why do I have so much to do?

Let them know I'll stop by in the evening.

All right.

We won't have a party without you.

Good luck with work, and I'll see you later.

All right.

That was Sang Gu.

He hates being left out, no matter what we do.

- Grandma! - Welcome home.

- Welcome home. - Come on in.

- Welcome! - You did it.

- Congratulations, Grandma. - My gosh.

Oh, my goodness. Thank you.

These days, I'm getting more flowers than I ever have.

Are you throwing her a surprise party?

Well, it's not really a party.

We wanted to congratulate Mom on finally coming home.

It must've been so hard for you too, Mr. Geum.

Not at all. This must've been hard for you guys.

It's the weekend, so you should still be in bed.

But all of you are here.

We made some porridge for you, Mom. Let's eat.

Yes, let's do that. I can eat a lot now.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

- Go wash up first. - Okay, thanks.

- Good. - Thank you.

- Yes. - Come in.

- What is it? - What?

What is it, guys?

Go have coffee with the others.

We wanted to give you this first.

What?

This money caused all the trouble.

We can finally pay you back.

Please accept it, Mother.

Oh, dear.

I'm glad you're doing this.

You should accept it.

He's paying you back with the money he first earned from his business.

- Here, Father. - What?

What is this?

For the first time, we can give you some spending money.

You're giving me money too?

Is this really from your profit? Did you take out a loan?

No, not at all.

It's the profit from our business plus our savings.

As for your investment, please give me some more time.

All right. Thank you.

I will accept it.

And...

Here. I want to give it back as your spending money.

What?

My gosh. Please don't do this.

You said I'm your mother now.

So you're my eldest son and daughter-in-law, right?

Then you should accept it.

My goodness.

Even though you were busy with your newly opened business,

you took such good care of me.

But I was so busy looking after myself...

that I couldn't even buy a chair for my son's restaurant.

So let me do this for you, okay?

Take it.

I'll spend my own money, so you do the same.

Come on. It's from your mother. Take it.

This is not why we brought the money.

- Honey. - Yes?

Can you scold them? They talk too much.

Just take it, okay?

Here.

Take it.

This is what parents do for their children.

I was going to gladly accept it if our kids gave us...

their hard-earned money in the future.

We'll never be as thoughtful and giving as they are.

Honey.

- You take this. - What?

This isn't just from the restaurant.

It also includes your hard-earned savings.

It's all yours.

Gosh, it's okay. You keep it.

You have so many expenses when you run a business.

The excitement about a new restaurant will fizzle out,

so you must stay very focused.

Mother thought of all that and gave you the money.

Then take 1,000 dollars.

Spend it on yourself.

Go shopping, take a trip, or go out for a nice meal.

Whatever you do, just spend it on yourself.

What? Are you sure?

Even if I told you to spend all of it,

you wouldn't be able to.

Just 1,000 dollars.

Spend it all.

Don't go shopping and buy stuff for me and the kids.

Buy yourself some new clothes, shoes, purses...

Buy whatever you want.

Hold on. Is it too little to buy everything you want?

What about you?

I just spent it on you.

Who knew this day would come?

Dad, let's go to work.

Okay!

You should get going too.

Go to the mall, okay?

Buy yourself something. Anything!

Yes, hello.

Hello. It's me, Maeng Jeong Wook.

Can you talk now?

Yes, go ahead.

If you're free this evening,

would you like to have dinner with me?

Dinner? I don't think I can.

It's lunchtime soon. How about we have lunch together?

Well...

Are you not available? Then I'll see you another time.

No, I am available.

Pick a place and text me the address.

I'll meet you there.

Sure, sounds good.

Okay.

Hey, Young Hye.

What? Shopping?

Gosh, I wish you called me a minute earlier.

I just agreed to meet someone for lunch.

Yes, that director.

No. I don't want to make it awkward for Min Hee.

I also thought of your advice and decided to see him once more.
