How Long I've Kissed (아내의 자격)

Misunderstanding?

Yes, your brother is still in a fit of anger. But things will take a turn for the better soon, it's just a misunderstanding.

You really know how to get a person all worked-up. You must find it fun to do so.

The mere thought of you filthy rotten bitch defiling our family makes me want to explode!

There's absolutely no truth in that!

Do you think that by denying it, you can obfuscate what had happened?

You should have come clean when he gave you the chance.

Please, let's talk about this in a cool and calm manner.

A harlot like you, is unfit to be a member of our family right from the outset.

My oppa, because he married a bitch like you

ruined his chances of meeting women of good breeding, do you know that?

I do not covet that social prestige and status at all.

If it's not because of my child, I don't cherish nor do I care--

No matter what happens, I will not admit it. No... never, until the very end.

You say 'no', what do you mean by that?

Things are not like what you imagined--

What exactly is it that I'm imagining?

I asked to meet you, hoping to clear your perceived misunderstanding of the matter at hand.

After all this misunderstanding arose because of me.

So, I would first like to apologize to you.

I want to ask you a few questions.

Go ahead.

When was my child's first visit to your dental clinic?

Two months ago.

Was it then that you met my wife for the first time?

No, we met by chance a few days prior to that.

At that time, we were strangers--

Whatever, it means it started then, right?

Yes.

Did you just say 'yes'?

Yes.

You two are really revving it up at lightning speed.

I guess since you're both adults, there's no necessity to play games.

Might as well jump into bed and fornicate.

Promiscuity is widespread in the Republic of Korea because of the ease and convenience of motels and pensions. Isn't that nice?

You have it all wrong.

Look here! The reason I met up with you is to resolve this matter,

but if you continue to prevaricate, then there's nothing further to discuss.

What's the purpose of this discussion? It's so that the one who has committed the sin must apologize.

The two of you, are you trying to make a fool out of me right now?

Do you take me for an idiot?

That bitch, Yun Seo Rae said exactly the same thing!

Please watch your language, otherwise let's continue this somewhere else--

What 'watch my language'? Are you peeved that I called her a bitch?

Please calm down.

Your kind are the most disgusting!

Acting all gentlemanly on the surface but a scoundrel deep down.

I heard you played sports in college? Right? You were coached by Im Jin Man.

Did you know that I was the one who came up with all his strategies.

He became famous because of my strategies.

Since you were taught by him, following that rational, you should live the life of a decent man.

That bastard, do you know how overbearing and conceited he is now?

Now that fame and fortune are his, his mind has decayed. You are just like him, bastard.

Riding on your wife's coattails, you are able to live comfortably.

Putting on the act of a gentleman,

your chicanery brought about your standing in the community.

But you seduced another man's wife behind his back!

You're a shameless bastard!

I'm sorry but you're disrupting our work here in the clinic.

Shall I escort you out? Or...

Do you know that ajussi?

Dad.

Bo Rum, when did you arrive? Come here.

I was frightened.

It's okay, it's okay.

Teacher Hong said to bring Bo Rum--

It's Sae Yeon now.

Ah, right. She said she wants to have dinner with you and Sae Yeon.

Fine, I know.

I'll be going then.

All right, thank you.

See you tomorrow.

All right.

Dad, that man earlier, isn't he Gyeol's father?

You can recall him.

We went camping together, how could I forget?

Yes, you're right.

=To, Gyeol's mother.=-

=send.=-

Gyeol, Mom is presently not at home.

Oh, my handphone broke.

I changed my number. Save this new number.

I've left some rice cake on the dining table.

Go for your tuition after you had your meal.

I left in a hurry, that's why the house is still in a mess but don't mind it.

But Mom, where are you right now?

Oh, right!

Are you not going to ask me about my presentation? I came in third.

That's wonderful. You did great.

When you're home, check your e-mail, teacher said she'd sent an e-mail to all the parents.

See you later.

Dad.

Where's your mom?

She's not home.

Where is she?

Aunt Mi Rae's place.

She called me as I was about to step into the house. She said something urgent came up.

Your mother... she has changed her phone, right?

Yes, she said it broke.

Give me her new number.

Gyeol's aunt came by.

I know.

I don't want him to see me looking like this.

Why didn't you tidy yourself up since you know he'll be coming home?

Did you two conspire with each other? To deny everything?

No, we didn't.

Drop the act.

Lower your voice.

Are you afraid your son will hear this?

I'm the same. I'm afraid that he might be able to hear us too.

That's the only reason you're still living here in this house.

Put it away. It's better for you not to see.

I'm going to drive her out of our family.

Let go of me! I'm going to drive her out right this minute!

She has not done one thing right from day one.

I rue the day I allowed her into this family.

In spite of my misgivings, I've tried my best to grin and bear it

and tried to get along with her.

But what had she done?

Mom, Mom, Mom...

Let go!

You'll only get more upset if you go there now.

She even assaulted me by pushing me to the ground.

What guarantee is there that she won't assault you? Didn't I mention to you earlier

that she assaulted me.

If she dares to lay a finger on me, I'll sue her for assault.

Let go of me. Let go!

Mom! Mom!

Dad, please persuade mom.

You should calm down and think of a way to resolve this in a civil manner.

She's a woman without shame, you should not stoop to her level.

You should call your husband immediately.

Ah?

What did you say?

We have one of South Korea's foremost lawyers in our family.

Dad!

Are you in your right mind?

How can you think of washing our dirty linen in public?

Where is she going to hide her face thereafter?

Your husband is ignorant of this matter?

Of course he doesn't know.

You must not let him know either.

Furthermore, how could we ask our son-in-law to act for us in this matter?

Even if we require the services of a lawyer, we should look for one ourselves.

Yes, we should do that.

You... you... you two seriously...

Until and unless Myeong Jin opens her mouth and tell you, you should pretend not to know.

Of course.

Honey, you should be extra vigilant during this period.

I won't be calling or texting you for the time being.

I'll purchase another phone. Let's keep in touch using that.

Leave the phone in the office then. Don't ever take it home.

Yes.

Dear, you have been away from the office for far too long today. Hurry up and leave.

It's okay, I've no appointments fixed for today.

I'm sorry for worrying you.

Don't keep saying sorry.

Be careful of what you say in front of Myeong Jin.

Come out.

Has he left? Has he taken his stuff and left?

You...

Don't hit me.

Why can't you talk civilly instead of raising your hand?

Is this a trait inherent in your family?

Do you know how you'd stretched Myeong Jin's patience?

She said it's pointless to waste one's breath on a woman like you.

Yes, what is it? What! Why did you tell them?

You can go on home.

Why?

She told me to take the food to her mother's place.

They are having dinner at their mom's place.

All of them?

It seems like they're having a family discussion.

She further said she'll do the cleaning up herself.

She won't even lift a finger to help normally

but today she is acting out of character.

It can only mean they are deliberating on a matter of paramount importance.

Yes, he left a few minutes ago.

I am really worried for you.

They are convening to discuss about you.

They are not going to let the matter rest as you wished.

Whatever decision they arrive at, they will have to let me know sometime.

Don't come. I'm preoccupied with housework

and I've a big pile of washing waiting to be done.

Don't worry, go home and get some rest.

I'm sorry Mi Rae.

I'm sure you are troubled, what more because you are delivering their meals.

My feelings are unimportant right now. That's part and parcel of living.

Eonni, try eating something even though you don't have an appetite.

Call me if you need anything. I'll be there immediately.

No man can forgive his wife's promiscuity.

Some may continue living together for the sake of their children,

but they will divorce eventually.

I've no intention to forgive her, that would be a travesty.

Since she'd denied it categorically, the only option is to litigate the matter.

Shall we do that?

I'm really sorry, father.

Of course you should be sorry. This is filial profligacy.

Although such improper liaisons between men and women can be found everywhere

But I never imagined it will happen in my family.
