Yeah That's How It Is (그래, 그런거야 / Geurae, Geurungeoya)

Episode 9

Mother.

My goodness.

You scared me. What's wrong?

I'm sorry. It's my fault.

Did I say anything?

You always listen to this music when you're mad at me.

It's not like that.

Don't lie to me.

I'm not.

Thinking that I brought you into doing all this housework...

makes me realize how stressed you must have been.

We started off with so little...

that trying to save money on everything became a habit.

It makes me wonder if...

the life I have lived...

was satisfying or not.

I'm just feeling a bit empty with all these thoughts.

You lived a satisfying life, Mother.

Your life is a model of a successful life.

I respect you.

Don't lie to me.

Mother.

When you become my age...

you'll feel the coldness of the emptiness inside you from time to time.

You'll be the same.

I'm already going through it.

That's your problem.

You are too young to be saying that.

Oh, my.

Goodness.

Go ahead and take a nap.

Mother...

I'm not going to throw that CD away.

I'll listen to it when I feel empty while thinking of you.

Oh man. There's nothing to watch.

Honey.

Ha Myung Ran.

Is she not home yet?

What time is it?

The subscriber you have called is not available...

What?

Yes, Uncle?

Hey, is your dad home?

No, not yet.

Why is his phone turned off?

He turned off his phone?

Shouldn't he be home yet?

He said he would get some tea...

but it's already five o'clock.

Didn't he tell you anything?

No, isn't it a good thing if he is out for a long time?

I don't know. Still, don't you think it's a bit too long for some tea?

Maybe he's drinking 10 cups.

Maybe he put on an act at home...

but fell in love at first sight when he met her.

Okay. When he comes home...

tell him I'm waiting for his call.

All right.

Why isn't she answering?

Yes, Dad.

What took you so long to answer the phone?

Sorry. It was on silent mode.

Did you meet your friend?

Yes.

Is she glad to see you?

Of course, Dad. She's very happy to see me.

What time will you get on the bus?

I'll pick you up.

It's okay. You don't need to do that.

I'll be leaving soon.

It's okay. I'll take a taxi.

Yes. I'm going to take a taxi.

Okay. Bye.

It's been a while.

I'm sorry for showing up all of a sudden.

Yes. You did surprise me a bit.

How have you been?

I heard you're doing well.

How?

You know how small this industry is.

I'm doing fine.

What about you?

I'm doing okay.

Your surgery...

ended quite earlier than I thought.

Yes.

It was less serious than we thought.

And the professor handled it quickly too.

Coke with some ice please.

You haven't changed.

You too, So Hee.

I heard you were going to start your own hospital?

Yes. But it got postponed.

According to my in-laws, it wasn't a good time to start a business.

It's a big business after all.

How's Se Hyun?

I didn't hear anything about him getting married, though.

He's fine. He's not getting married yet.

You should also get married soon.

I know, right?

Do you have a baby?

No, we don't have one yet.

What brought you here?

Nothing.

I just wondered how you were doing.

Se Hyun...

asked me lately...

if I'm fine with everything now.

I told him I'm totally fine with everything.

And I wanted to check if I am really...

fine with everything.

I think I'm fine.

It's funny right?

I only liked you by myself.

You know it wasn't really like that.

The whole hospital was talking about us.

I got nothing much to say.

I hope you meet someone...

not like me, but someone sincere,

get married and be happy.

Of course.

I will do that.

What do you want for dinner?

What do you want?

Anything.

How about some pizza?

I'm fine with it. What about you, Se Joon?

I don't care.

What's your problem?

I told you I didn't want to come out.

It's been a while since the three of us hung out. You're being rude.

Yes, right. After 3000 years.

- I'm not thankful. - Oh, you brat.

What am I, a fool?

Do you think I don't know why you guys brought me out?

Should I turn on the heater in the living room, Mum?

Pardon?

Should we turn it on?

Should we turn the heater on?

It's not even that cold.

Don't waste gas.

- Sook Ja. - Yes.

Any news from Min Ho?

- No, not yet. - Not even a call?

His phone is off.

What's going on? What's taking him so long?

Maybe they're going to spend a night together, Aunt.

Oh, Kyung Ho.

I don't think they're spending a night together.

Maybe they went to watch a movie, and are having dinner.

They say it's bad luck if you have a meal on your first date?

I know, right?

Why did he turn off his phone?

It's bit salty for my taste.

It's okay. Turn down the fire.

I think it still tastes too strong.

It's not good for your health to eat your food this way.

But Father is still very healthy.

Honestly, looking at Father being so healthy...

I guess it doesn't really matter how you eat your foods.

How is Se Hyun doing with that rich girl, Yu Ri?

It seems they're over. It's been quiet.

If she's not that bad, have them get married.

I won't allow that.

You don't like that girl?

No, not at all.

But I heard that she said she won't give up.

Se Hyun doesn't want to.

Goodness.

I should be worrying about my own.

Our So Hee is such a sweet and pretty girl.

I don't understand why she is not seeing anyone.

It's all her dad's fault. He just won't let her do anything.

How would she date?

Seems like he'll have her live with him forever.

She will meet someone one day.

Kids these days are not rushing their marriages.

Yes, you're right.

Where are the kids?

Se Hyun wanted to see a movie and have dinner...

so Se Hee took Se Joon out.

But they should be home by now.

So Hee went to Gangwon Province to see her friend.

Ji Sun is working. She will be here later.

But this is so dull.

I don't know where to put my eyes.

Oh, Jong Chul.

Are we all good here?

We'll all get indigestion.

How do you feel about Mum these days?

What about her?

Don't you want her to feel at ease?

So, you're saying I should make Mum happy,

and live the rest of my life as a loser?

What do you mean by that?

You can still get a proper job if you just focus...

I said, I don't want to do that.

Have some self confidence.

Having no confidence...
