Love On A Rooftop (I Love You From Today / 오늘부터 사랑해 / Oneulbooteo Saranghae)

Episode 44

To me, my mother

is a piercing pain

right in my heart, every time I think of her.

Others may call her cold and extreme,

but that's how she is to me.

She raised me alone without my father,

and facing this cruel world,

she sacrificed her own life for me.

For you to misunderstand her...

I mean...

I can see why you misunderstood,

but you know what?

To be honest,

it really broke my heart.

Dojin, that's...

Just bury it.

If you think of me as your little sister,

that's the best option.

It's not your fault,

so please don't make that face.

I'll feel even sorrier.

I suspected my mother at first, too.

I thought she switched the tea

to make me close down the cafe.

Dojin.

In any case,

I'd like you to understand she didn't do it.

Because now,

both she and you are so dear to me.

What are you saying?

You want me to take the fall for it alone?

Then I'll pay for your burn scar surgery

and make you my company model.

I'll just bite the bullet

and take the fall for it.

Then I'll get the burn surgery I want

and become a model at Seryeong's company.

I won't get another opportunity like this.

Seryeong, this is Seunga.

I bet you've been waiting for my call, huh?

So have you made your decision? / - Yes.

I'll put on my bad girl act from now on,

so you have to follow through on your end.

If you don't, I might pull

my bad girl act with you.

Oh, how dare you threaten me...

I'm sure nothing of the sort will happen.

You're right. I'm sure it won't.

I'll set a date for the surgery right away.

Okay.

Yes.

I'll become the model for Seryeong's company,

get recognized,

and use the momentum to become an actress.

Seunga, don't think too much.

Just act the part of a bad girl.

But what excuse should I use

to tell Seunghye?

I'm sorry.

You went out of your way to help him,

but my husband asked me to decline the offer.

You've already done so much for us,

so it'd be shameless to accept your offer.

But darling Daeho will find it hard

to get a job in his current state.

Please tell him to reconsider.

Dongsuk, as you know,

darling Daeho doesn't have the luxury

of worrying about his pride at this point.

I beg to differ. At our age,

one must keep his pride intact.

Though he doesn't have the luxury,

he's right to keep his pride intact.

Oh, no. Dongsuk...

I must have offended you.

I'm sorry.

I simply wanted to find

darling Daeho a good job.

I'm not sure why you're so invested.

I just don't get it.

Then don't try so hard.

I'm trying to mislead you.

And it was fine if you called him "darling"

when you two were young,

but for you to call him that now

is rather offensive.

Yes, that's the effect I'm going for.

Oh, dear. It's the force of habit.

Please be more careful from now on.

Goodbye!

What did she say?

I took Dongsuk for a silly fool.

And she is,

but she strikes me as someone

who will have her say despite it.

Let's see how much longer

she'll try and have her say before me.

Since Daeho rejected our job offer...

Then...

Commence with Plan B as planned.

In order for me to get Dongnakdang,

Dongsuk's promissory note is not enough.

Okay.

I found a business in a risky financial state,

so I'll lure Daeho toward it.

Okay.

It's late. You should get going.

Mija.

You did well.

How so?

I was afraid you might go soft

once you saw Daeho face to face.

I was nervous.

Why would you be? That's way out of line.

Who are you to worry about that?

I'm sorry, Mija.

Good night.

Don't get any ideas about you and me.

Men mean nothing to me now.

Dojin is the only person I care for.

I'd like you to understand she didn't do it.

I wish you, of all people, would understand.

Because now,

both she and you are so dear to me.

Seunga.

We need to talk.

What do you mean?

What are you, deaf?

I switched the tea jars

of my own free will.

What are you saying?

You said Dojin's mother put you up to it.

I lied. / - What?

I said I lied. Because I was scared.

Yun Seunga!

If I said I did it on my own,

you would've made me confess to Dojin.

But if I said it was his mother,

I didn't think you'd go that far.

How could you frame someone like that?

That's why I'm telling you

and coming clean right now.

Seunga, how could you...

I know. I'm completely hopeless.

But I'm not asking you to rescue me

in any way.

I did it on my own.

Why did you do it?

You hated me enough to do that?

Yes!

Seeing you and Dojin hitting it off like that

really got under my skin.

Whether it's at home or work,

whenever you're around,

I get the cold shoulder!

So what would you like me to do?

Do you never want to see me again?

Would that work for you?

Seunghye, how could you...

I won't watch you do this to yourself.

Tell me what you want, and I'll do it.

Hey...

Yun Seunghye!

What's up with her?

What is she on?

What will I do?

I had no idea it was a lie,

and made a huge mistake toward Ms. Yang...

What do you mean? What mistake?

Grandma.

Why...

You couldn't manage the tea well,

and this is what it led to?

I'm sorry.

Something was going on with Dojin...

What was going on with him?

I thought it was praiseworthy for a young man

like him to want to sell traditional tea.

Dojin said he'd come by

to tell you in detail soon, grandma.

I'll try and smooth out the misunderstanding

with Hong Seokchun myself.

After all, it has to do with your reputation.

How did things get this far?

I really wanted to do well...

I'm sorry to worry you like this.

You can't undo what's already done.

You're excused.

Okay.

Oh, my.

I'd like to talk to you about Seunga tomorrow.

Call me.

I'm sorry I asked you to make the trip here.

The one who's thirsty should dig the well.

Still, I feel like I should have come to you.

Please have a seat. / - Right.

I got a call from President Jang.

He said you'd be asking to meet with me

about a business deal.
