It's Beautiful Now (The Present Is Beautiful / Hyunjaeneun Areumdawo / 현재는 아름다워)

You tell us.

Am I out of my mind?

There's no need to answer her. Let's go to our room.

Until when will you hide behind my brother...

and control him as if he's your puppet?

You may have Mom and him wrapped around your finger,

but not me.

What's so hard about denying my claims?

Actually, nothing about this is hard.

Yes, you're right.

Honey!

I'm not my parents' biological daughter.

Is this true?

Mother, I'm sorry.

Why would you tell them that now?

You knew?

So you and Soo Jung were in on it together?

I suggested it.

Soo Jung didn't want to lie,

but Mom was happy with her being from a distinguished family...

that I chose to hide the truth.

You brat!

How dare you!

How could you do this to me?

How could you?

Mom, are you all right?

- Mom! - Mom?

- Mom... - Call an ambulance!

- My gosh. - Mom.

Unbelievable.

Mom?

Mom, are you all right?

Mom?

Take deep breaths and collect yourself.

Shut it, will you?

Are you sure you don't need to see a doctor?

Why would I choose to embarrass myself?

The last thing I want is for the whole neighborhood to know.

- Unbelievable. - My gosh.

How could this be?

Why are you just standing there?

Are you happy now?

Was it fun to stab my mom in the back...

as well as me?

How many faces do you have anyway?

One that's kind, one that's sweet, and one that's generous...

You're pathetic.

What?

Why did you record your conversation with my mom...

when you could've just asked me?

How dare you bother a sick woman?

It's disrespectful, to say the least.

You could've exposed me some other way!

I thought we were friends.

Did you have to go this far?

That's right. It had to be this way.

The truth had to come out.

That's how you repay the people you duped.

My mom adored you, you know.

I never voiced a single complaint ever since you took care of my mom.

Don't try to sugarcoat it.

Your mom's assets were why you exposed me.

It was all you were after.

That's all you care about!

Jin Ju!

You brat, what was that?

Honey.

Honey, are you all right?

What are you doing?

Is your mother all right? Shouldn't she see a doctor?

She doesn't need to.

I'll stay with my mom at the hospital for the time being.

But it'll be uncomfortable there.

I'll be all right.

Your mother would be more uncomfortable seeing me around.

Then, let me at least drive you there.

No, I'd rather go alone.

The kids are here and so is your mother.

This is where you're needed.

I'm home.

Mom, are you going somewhere?

Yes, the hospital.

Here. Let me.

I'll at least walk you to your car.

Auntie, did something happen while I was out?

You should ask your parents.

Your grandmother's not feeling good right now.

It makes me uncomfortable,

so I can only imagine how upset you must be.

This is why people can't hide their origin.

Since you were raised in a distinguished family...

Mother, that's not it.

There are plenty of bad people with good family backgrounds.

It's not right to talk him down like that.

How could she play dumb like that?

What now? Were you just about to mention his roots?

Please don't.

I like you so much.

Thank you. I like you too.

Gosh...

That liar!

That darn liar...

I can't believe this.

Now you are upset?

Did it finally hit you?

Yes. How could she do this to me?

My point. How could she do this?

Tell Soo Jung to come right away.

She went out.

Jin Heon just escorted her out to her car as if she was a newborn baby.

That darn brat. Where did she go?

She went to her mom.

She just left without telling me...

after dropping a bomb like that?

How could she...

She's finally showing her true colors.

Don't you think so?

She enticed my naive brother with fair words...

to have gotten her way this whole time.

Mom, do you still want to give her your building?

Hey, I said I would give it to her when I died, not now.

Will you stop talking about the building?

What...

Mom, are you all right?

Yes. I'm fine, you punk.

You silly brat! You fool...

You darn...

You fool! You darn punk.

Hey.

Why aren't you stopping me?

Go ahead and hit me until you feel better.

That's always the way with him. Gosh, Mom.

Soo Jung didn't do anything wrong.

Actually, I feel bad for her.

Like she said before,

I should've told you before I got married.

But you really liked...

that she was a professor's daughter...

and went to a prestigious school. You bragged about her a lot.

So I just decided not to tell you, believing it was for your sake.

Whenever you talked about...

her roots and her family background,

she was hurt. But I looked the other way.

I just bought her some bags and clothes.

I guess that's how her wound festered.

It's all my fault.

You crazy idiot.

Are you trying to defend her now?

Mom, do you not know Soo Jung?

Do you have any idea how much she's suffered?

My goodness.

Mom.

Mom.

- Seriously... - You crazy...

It's all right, Mom.

I'm home.

Jung Hoo.

What?

I think something's going on.

Where is this coming from all of a sudden?

- Dad. - Hey.

I have something to tell you guys.

Where's Mom?

She went to the hospital to see Grandma.

Did Mom and Aunt have a fight?

I don't even know where to start.

I guess your mom will talk to you later.

About what?

Your grandma isn't your mom's birth mother.

She adopted your mom when she was three...

and raised her as her own daughter.

What?

Are you saying Mom was adopted?

By Grandpa and Grandma?

Yes.

I've long known that since before we got married.

Your mom wanted to tell my family that she had been adopted...

before we got married.

But I was against the idea.

And your grandma agreed with me. That's why we've kept it a secret.

Why are you telling us all that now?

Grandma Jung Ja found out.

Hello.

You said you'd sleep at your place tonight.

I'll look after her. You can go now.

Okay.

- Thank you. - Bye.

Hyun Jae and I are so different from each other.

What kind of man cooks great side dishes like these?

But I prefer your mom's cooking.

I really liked the galbi I had at your place.

It's totally different from restaurant food.

Really? I'll bring some side dishes that my mom made next time.

By the way, once we get married,

who will cook all the side dishes?

There's nothing to worry about. We have Hyun Jae and Mom.

We can't ask them to cook for us every time.

We can do other stuff to make up for them.

I guess you're right. We will do stuff for them instead.

Oh, right.
