Motel California (2025) s01e09 Episode Script

Let's date.
Are you sure?
Yes. From now on, I'll only
look and think only of you.
All this time, I've lived hoping that
everyone around me would be happy.
From now on, I'll give up all my desires,
and only make you happy.
I've always had someone by my side.
But you've always been alone.
From now on, I'll never
let go of your hand again.
I'm back.
Did something good happen?
What could have happened?
Do you know ♪
The white thing attached
to the tangerine is called ♪
Tangerine pith ♪
What should I do?
We have prepared a premium yacht event.
It's a hotel event. We have
prepared a drone show.
How about some fireworks?
As you can see, we were invited
to the World Firework Festival
after recognition of our skills…
It's a countryside village that still
gets complaints about noise,
and the leaders of that village
go to bed early at night.
Considering local characteristics,
we will make another proposal.
Yes, as soon as possible.
I would like to request an event that
can demonstrate a more extensive influence.
[Director, me and Yeon Soo…]
[Director, the necklace…]
Kang Hee!
Thank you.
You wanted to see me so badly,
you came out early, didn't you?
Of course, I wanted to see you.
I wanted to see you more.
Why? Is something wrong?
I think I've messed everything up again.
What did you mess up?
I should have told you earlier,
but I ended up accepting the necklace.
What necklace?
I'll cover up the nonsense that
troubles you with my own rumors.
I'm still your official
boyfriend, aren't I?
But you're not my real boyfriend.
There's no reason for me
to accept something like this.
You seem to be under a misconception.
I'm doing my job right now.
Getting the construction to start again,
and making sure the person in charge
can work in the best condition,
is my duty after all.
Here. It's for the construction,
so take it, quickly.
If it is really burdensome, you can
return it after the construction is over.
Do you think receiving the necklace will
cover up the rumors and solve the issue?
I have it all planned out.
Let's cooperate for the construction.
If you're the person
in charge, act like one.
If we can just resume the construction,
I could even accept ten of these necklaces.
Give it to me.
They say you'll grab
the straws if you're drowning.
Does this look like a straw to you?
Or do I look like a straw to you?
I'll make sure to clear up the rumors
before we resume construction,
so brighten up your face!
Cheon Yeon Soo,
are you laughing?
What was it again?
You took it because of work, it means
you have nothing to do with that man.
That's a relief, it's not too late.
It's already too late!
You've been really pretentious
all this time, haven't you?
Even if I spout nonsense about wanting
to be friends or whatever in the future,
catch on quickly that it's all a bluff.
When I say "don't follow me",
if you really don't follow,
and when I tell you to go away,
if you just go away,
I'll kill you!
Do you feel wronged?
Are you dumbfounded?
No.
Your lips are so pretty
when you're angry like this.
I can't hear anything but look at them.
Keep talking.
Speak more.
Even if there's a rumor going around
that I'm getting married,
don't believe such things.
And if I say that things are tough and talk
about "throwing the towel or quitting",
don't be swayed by that.
From today, we're starting day one.
No.
When the director returns,
I'll return the necklace.
Let's start over from then.
Completely, without any fault.
Do I have to wait again?
Don't worry, he'll be right back.
Okay.
Then, until that time,
let's just keep it casual.
What's that?
It's a date proposal.
It's warm.
- Is it warm?
- Yes.
Oh? It's a shooting star!
- Where?
- Over there!
Did you make a wish? Wish!
I was kidding.
Look at the damaged skin texture.
I need to take care of it.
It's become firm.
Good! Good!
Good morning!
Where are you going?
A date, perhaps?
What date?
What's so noisy?
I didn't say anything.
Me neither.
I didn't say anything either.
No, it's vibrating.
- The phone is ringing, isn't it?
- Really!
[Mr. Geum Seok Kyeong]
Ah, my neck hurts.
Yes, director.
Right now?
To where?
Try going over there.
It's pretty, isn't it?
This way.
- Miss!
- Miss!
- You can go this way.
- You can go this way.
You can go this way.
Hello!
Which way?
Shall we go this way?
They say the song has started, the song.
No, I want to go.
Ah, I want to go.
Ah, I need to go.
Wait a minute.
Come with me.
Kang Hee, what's all this in Hana-eup?
Hey, that's too cool!
Thanks to you, I'm living
it up! I'm really enjoying!
I'm envious!
Kang Hee, I won the
latest model TV! Thank you!
[Ji Kang Hee treats]
Why? Don't.
Don't. Please, don't.
Don't! Don't!
Mr. Geum Seok Kyeong's
proposal event for Ms. Ji Kang Hee.
No one missed it, right?
It doesn't happen every day, after all.
Don't forget and make sure to participate.
Watch a show, have a party,
and enjoy delicious food.
This is all thanks to our hotel heir.
Young and rich, tall and handsome
Geum Seok Kyeong.
This was done right away, right?
It seems like it took months to prepare.
This is an event prepared
personally for Ms. Ji Kang Hee.
Should I say it's the power of money?
The work does get done rather quickly.
Indeed, the scale of an heir
is hugely different, right?
Thank you.
Hello, can I please have your signature?
If you sign the consent form for
the construction of Boomerang Motel,
we are offering gift certificates
and additional event raffle tickets.
Just one signature, please.
- Yes, thank you.
- Thank you.
Are you okay?
Of course, it's nothing.
Let's go.
Did you guys sign?
Yes.
Hey, it was impossible not to do it, right?
No, they kept chasing us until we did.
Did they call people in Seoul
who specialize only in that kind of thing?
Is there such a profession?
I don't know. But, one thing's for sure,
now it feels real that Kang Hee
is really dating a wealthy man.
Hey, but should money be spent that way?
Seeing that, I started to feel
a bit sorry to Min Jung too.
Hey, you did your best in your own way.
What's there to be sorry about?
I'd feel a bit burdened if a guy did that.
All that matters is confirming
each other's feelings.
I don't like flashy things.
Dislike? What's there to dislike?
You'd like it all if you received it.
- You will like it.
- No, I won't.
I like things like handwritten letters.
Excuse me, boss, do you
happen to have this necklace?
Ah, this one's a luxury item,
so it's not available here.
Then please show me
something similar to it.
Even a copy of this, a
knockoff, is expensive.
How expensive is it?
It's incredibly expensive.
If you're going to buy something
like this, young man,
buy a house. Start with your own home.
No, you keep going on visit
calls from dawn till dusk,
and now you even go to places like Duri-eup,
which you used to say it was too far.
Why are you overexerting
yourself these days, director?
I need to earn money.
Director, were you perhaps shocked?
Because of Kang Hee's proposal?
It's not like she made
that decision for money, is it?
Of course not, it must be because
of the construction. I'll come back.
What?
Sir, please be especially
careful of fire on the site.
You must absolutely prevent smoking.
Do that on my site and you're dead.
I know, but please warn them one more time.
Alright.
Manager, to the rooftop.
Yes, on my way.
Hey, aren't all those cars
roaming the streets illegal?
Illegal? What are you talking about?
Don't file a complaint.
I mean, is it okay to
waste money like this?
Why not? That's the real life of the rich.
I'm jealous of Kang Hee.
Hey, don't be jealous.
If you're envious, you lose.
No, if you're jealous, you
should copy them, Heon Yeol.
Honestly, you're jealous of that
kind of splurging, aren't you?
Try copying that, at least.
Right, you're buying today.
Yes, you're buying.
Why should I?
You're always bragging
about having a lot of money.
- Whenever we meet, we always split the bill.
- Honestly, you spend the least.
- You should at least pay today.
- Okay, okay. I'll pay today.
- Order, whatever.
- Boss, could we have the menu, please?
Please bring it quickly.
He's finally buying! Finally paying.
Welcome.
You can sit over here.
Cool.
Shall we join their table?
Are you freeloading?
You said you were buying today.
Alright.
- Welcome.
- Welcome.
What's with those two?
This is an interesting
combination, isn't it?
Thrilling.
You said you would be friends for life.
Why the sudden change of heart?
Friends…
I tried, but I just couldn't do it.
I have to be a guardian
when Kang Hee is sick,
and I need to give Kang Hee a hug
when she is having a hard time.
Fall asleep together
and wake up together.
From now on, I really need to live well.
So that you liking me
wouldn't be embarrassing.
Hope you had a happy day today.
Good night, Kang Hee.
Eventually, I want to have a beautiful
daughter who looks just like Kang Hee.
I can't do it, be her friend.
Is it possible, you two?
I've unintentionally heard
too much about you two.
I'm not talking about
your deceased parents.
Just…
I'm worried about the practical
barriers that you two will face.
I'm not saying I'll interfere, so relax.
But if by any chance you hurt Kang Hee,
I won't just stand by.
Whoa! You startled me.
You were surprised, right?
- Is it funny?
- Yes.
Where have you been until now?
I went to meet someone for a moment.
Who?
Geum Seok Kyeong.
Why?
What did he say?
He just asked me to be good to you.
I told Ah Reum.
- Yes.
- By now, the others probably know, right?
Really?
What is it?
- Shh.
- Shh.
They say it's a secret for the time being.
Well, I have no one to tell anyway.
Then, what about Ms. Yoon?
Did Yeon Soo dump Ms. Yoon?
Nan Woo must have been
emotionally prepared too.
Yeon Soo was talking about
Kang Hee from the start.
Wow! But isn't this really wrong?
Then what about that man in the room?
She said she rejected the proposal.
Hello, if she had rejected it, the rumor
would be all over the neighborhood.
Then what becomes of that man?
Still, that's Kang Hee's decision.
No, why am I taking the side
of the person who spent money?
What, am I the weird one?
No, Yeon Soo will marry Ms. Yoon,
and Kang Hee will marry
the hotel heir, then it's all settled.
Ah, why are you like this?
Why do you all twist your own fate!
Then, you should have married Jung Min too.
Why does Min Jung come up here?
And it's not Jung Min, it's Min Jung. How
many years have I been saying that, you fool?
And if you were going to do that, you should
have kept working at the company in Seoul.
I must have done wrong.
Ah, I was wrong.
No, if people find out
again, it'll be mayhem.
At least, let's take their side.
This is not it…
It's been years since you met.
Do you still call her Ms. Min Jung?
Hey, where are you going?
I'm going to Kang Hee.
Are you clueless?
No, if they were together,
it would be in this room or that one.
What will you do if they are together?
Is that so?
I guess I shouldn't go, then.
Gods! You're talking nonsense.
Let's get some sleep.
Kang Hee isn't here, you know?
He said she isn't there.
- I'm going.
- But he said it's not.
It looks like I'm rotten, I am.
You did well by telling us.
Thank you for telling me first.
We're best friends, right?
Then I will also speak up.
Because I have to be honest too.
I like Seung Eon.
Aren't you surprised?
In the past, I asked Seung Eon
about his ideal type.
Yes.
He said his ideal type
is a girl who likes books.
And you? Why do you like Seung Eon?
Me?
He's small and precious.
Seung Eon?
Hold on, let me laugh for a bit.
Why?
No, because I liked him since he was tiny.
Hey, if you say that,
it was not for me, but for Seung Eon.
This sly girl!
- Look at this cunning lady.
- You know my family's situation.
No.
I have to marry the person
my father has chosen for me.
But the only excuse to
avoid that was to study.
Now, my doctorate is almost finished.
But did you know
Seung Eon went to find you
with a bouquet of flowers?
- Really?
- A really big one.
Someone said they saw him at the library.
So it was true.
I'll really push you
forward, just trust me.
In return, you help me out, too.
What?
I really wanted to have
such a normal date like this.
- Really?
- Yeah, really.
Then shall we do it every day from now on?
I like it.
What else should we do?
We walk every day too.
Hey, do you like it? Do you?
- It's good!
- It's good!
- To your position!
- To your position!
What do you want to do?
Before Kang Hee goes to Seoul,
we should make a lot of memories.
- We need to make them.
- We need to make them.
If Kang Hee tells you to die, you would?
- I should die then.
- I should die then.
Why? Why the quarrel?
Shall we have a match?
Just like old times.
To your position.
It looks too strong.
Yong Su, where are you going?
My clothes are brand new.
Let's have another round
next time, including Min Goo.
Yeon Soo, shall we go take pictures?
Good idea.
I can't believe I carried the bags
for such cowards for a year.
Ah, I'm really ashamed.
Are you embarrassed?
Why is she hanging out with them
after leaving that rich guy aside?
That's what I'm saying.
Mind your own business.
If she gets dumped by that guy,
it's her loss. Whatever.
Hey, you guys go ahead.
Where are you going?
Why?
Leave it. Let's go.
There's something I want to try.
Me too.
I want to go first.
I think I know what it is.
What is it?
It's not that.
What is it?
Can we decide on our titles?
Yes.
Oh, I like it.
How do you feel today?
A mess.
I'm too embarrassed to go to Hana-eup.
Should I just go back to America?
Or should I take charge of the group's
planning as my father wished?
No.
You shouldn't do anything when your
emotions are fluctuating like this.
Such important decisions should
be made with a calm mind.
You're the only one, my friend. Thank you.
Kang Hee is the one who rejected the offer.
Seok Kyeong, do you know
how great and cool you are?
That's enough, okay?
Do you have the right to say
that after rejecting me?
Hey, speak properly.
It's not that I didn't want to marry you,
I said I didn't want an arranged marriage.
That's the same.
The words "I don't want
an arranged marriage"
meant that you should have confessed to me.
Release balloons, scatter flowers,
get down on one knee and offer a ring.
Propose to me in a very childish way,
just like you did to Ms. Kang Hee.
That's what you meant by proposing.
Hey!
Don't lie.
That's a lie.
Little Heart,
Mom's first love is heartbroken
and in despair, you know?
You need to cheer him up.
Get up, let's go.
You feel better when
you spend money, don't you?
Isn't this pretty?
- Is this for 24 months?
- Yes.
Hey, this is so cute.
Little Heart, this really…
That's really funny.
Please take it from here.
Tell your driver to come,
don't carry it yourself.
- Where are you going?
- Just a moment.
It's a heart, a heart, isn't it cute?
You're so cute.
You got something here.
Victor, are you okay?
Do you know this guy is married?
Are you crazy? Do you know this person?
Victor.
Say hello.
Emily, I'm really sorry.
My friend misunderstood the situation.
Seok Kyeong, this is Victor's cousin.
I invited her to my house
since she's come to Korea.
Esther, how about this?
It's really pretty, isn't it?
You should stop hanging around with Esther.
How long do I have to put up with this?
I also came to buy a gift for Little Heart.
Why are you buying clothes for our baby?
It's upsetting. Please don't do it, okay?
There's still a lot of hay.
Oh, dear! It's better to prepare
in advance since it's getting colder.
I'll help out too.
No, it's heavy.
It's no big deal.
Ah, it's a bit heavy.
See, I told you it's heavy.
Thank you, Han Woo.
Chil Ddaeng is doing well, right?
Ah, of course. Thanks
to you, she's very well.
If you're curious, come
check the blog sometimes.
I'm already following it.
- Oh, you are?
- Of course.
Of course, I'm interested.
Chil Ddaeng was my first patient.
At first, I thought Chil
Ddaeng was the name.
But it turned out to be an ear tag.
Right, number 77, Chil Ddaeng.
Number 38 is Sampal Gwangttaeng.
Ah, that one is quite a troublemaker.
Ah, Sa Cheonsa is really funny.
Oh, really? I should post more often then?
Ah, Ms. Yoon…
I've heard about it from Yeon Soo.
It must be very hard for you, isn't it?
The truth is, breakups, they say,
are forgotten by meeting someone else,
but it hurts.
No, you said you
heard it from the director.
Yes.
Actually,
we were not even dating.
Is Yeon Soo inside?
Why?
What do you want?
Did you use Ms. Yoon?
Does it feel good making
a fool out of someone?
You should have at least told me.
Hey, how could I fall for another
woman besides Kang Hee?
Ah, that darn Ji Kang Hee!
Hey, what about me?
Aren't we best friends?
I've supported the two of you so much.
You have no idea how
disappointed I am, do you?
But then again, what
does that matter to you?
Every day it's just Ji
Kang Hee, Ji Kang Hee.
Cut it out!
From today on, it's over
between you and me.
Hey, I'll apologize
properly. Just stand there.
What a load of crap! I'm going home.
Because I can't stand the sight of you.
You're banned from entering
our family farm for life.
Hey, Han Woo! Hey!
Hey, let's talk for a minute.
That's not like you.
Your mom has stopped eating
and drinking for days now.
She hasn't said a word like someone with
aphasia, and now I can't even reach her.
She is not answering your calls?
It's like nobody knows whether
she is alive or dead.
Yeon Soo, I didn't expect this from you.
I'll give it a try.
The phone is disconnected, please leave…
You shouldn't be sleeping.
Yes.
You see, I have a son.
He's been a good kid from his childhood,
and never caused any trouble.
He met the wrong woman,
and now he's planning to leave me.
What should I do?
You know, things with children
don't always go as planned.
As the saying goes,
"a game of go-stop and children
don't always turn out as you want".
Do respectable people
like you also play go-stop?
I'm someone whose heart
wavers at the sight of flowers.
Go-stop, what's that? It's hwatu.
What is Hwatu?
Isn't it a battle of flowers?
It's also my field of expertise.
He's a gambler.
Why do you talk like that?
I'll be back.
Kang Hee.
What is it?
Why are you here?
I came to take care of
you, sit down quickly.
You like yogurt, don't you?
Since it's morning, I've prepared
something light, with no fat.
I heard that even people on diet
eat a lot of this nowadays.
I'm touched.
Slow down.
It looks delicious.
I will eat well.
Is it good?
Yes, it's delicious.
The person who used to put yogurt
in my desk drawer every morning.
Of course, it was me.
That's why I came to like this yogurt.
Me too.
- Kang Hee?
- Yes?
Instead of secretly hiding like this,
I want to take care of you every day.
How about we just stop
thinking and go for it?
Risking all the whispers and gossip,
shall we just hold hands
and face it head-on?
Okay, let's do that.
Are you busy today?
[♪Similar to "share a room for tonight"]
I misunderstood.
Are you busy today?
Not busy at all.
There are really a lot of pretty things.
You can choose something
expensive. I pay with my savings.
I don't like it.
I am going to buy the prettiest one here.
Please show me this.
How much is this?
It's the cheapest here.
You are thrifty, miss.
It's not bad, but wouldn't it be prettier
with something embedded like this?
I think this is the prettiest?
Try it on.
- What is this?
- Together.
I will buy you something better later.
Your thought is enough.
Wow! I didn't expect
Ji Kang Hee to be so cliché.
It's classic.
Anyway, this conversation ends here.
One more time and I'll kiss you.
Right now?
Oh my, look over there.
- Kang Hee?
- Oh my, goodness.
No way.
- No way.
- Why?
Eat some bread.
Let's eat together.
A man's whim all passes.
Just a blink and then you open your eyes.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Kang Hee will leave soon,
so just bear with it a little.
Ah, Su Ji likes you so much.
For the sake of our Su Ji, please
look after Yeon Soo just once?
There has been a misunderstanding.
I have never dated the director.
It was just a rumor.
Ms. Yoon, this is holding grudges.
Your pride must have been hurt.
I understand.
Start from the beginning again?
Ms. Yoon, it's a big deal.
Chil Ddaeng suddenly collapsed.
I would like you to come with me.
But, Chil Ddaeng seems fine.
The fur is in good condition,
and so is the nutrition.
And the mood…
Seems good, doesn't it?
Ah, but…
Do cows normally do that? I mean,
shouldn't the cow's
tail be a bit more lively?
I mean, the tails of healthy cows
should be somewhat more…
The tail seems a bit too tame.
What is that?
That's why it is like that.
Why do you come home and
upset your mother's peace?
Father.
Don't just look for animal welfare,
try to address elderly welfare first.
Father, Ms. Yoon is also here.
Oh, my! Can't you have some
consideration and live properly?
Gosh, I've never seen such
happy cows before, sir.
It seems that the Han Woo has a kind
and upright character just like his father.
Well, he is refined.
His father supports his dream,
that's why he lives so wonderfully.
You are amazing, sir.
Awesome!
Please go, Dad.
Thank you.
You saved me at the
hospital earlier, right?
No, wasn't it you who saved me
from my father earlier?
- Thank you.
- No, I'm grateful.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry.
- I apologize.
Would you like to talk
in my room before you go?
No.
Are you tired? Go inside and sleep quickly.
Let's go to my room to talk.
- Hm?
- In your room
the security is lax, isn't it?
Is that so?
Let's go.
Why the light?
What are you doing?
Fine, do it with the light on.
Huh? What's this? It's not working.
- Stay still.
- Don't do it, this is home.
Do it at home, or outside?
Are you that type?
Cheon Yeon Soo, it's bold, isn't it?
Don't tease me. What if
someone comes like last time?
Who's coming?
Okay. If you say not
to do it, I won't do it.
I'll wait for you.
Since we won't do it,
come here.
Kang Hee!
Kang Hee, come out.
Let's go.
Let's go.
What's going on at this time of night?
She has no socks. It's cold outside.
Please rest.
Come out after a moment,
I'll give you what you need.
Thank you.
Give me a glass too.
Thank you.
Sorry for worrying you.
I can't take it anymore
because of my mom, really.
I'm going crazy because
of my mom too, really.
She's been protesting
by not contacting me for days.
A few days? That's cute.
My mom left me here and went away.
What is this, a battle?
My mom ran away,
abandoned me and then died.
This is mine, right?
It's not over yet.
The kind and noble principal you all know
is a domestic abuser.
I heard my mom has been beaten
since before I was born.
But she's holding out because
she says she won't divorce.
She said she wouldn't
divorce until I'm married.
Thank you.
I'm going to see my mom now.
Go inside.
Okay.
When is Mr. Chun Pil coming back?
Go upstairs.
Oh, daughter.
Mr. Chun Pil, where are you?
When are you coming back?
Were you here? I found you.
Ms. Hwang?
- Ms. Hwang?
- Go inside.
Are you okay on your own?
But why do you keep
treating me like I'm sick?
I'm fine, I came to get tested.
Since you're uncomfortable, I'll go back.
- I'll come tomorrow.
- You don't have to come.
I will come.
- Pardon?
- Never mind.
Please, go back.
- Then…
- Yes.
Dad, don't be sick.
Oh dear, did you call to make Dad cry?
Hang up quickly. The
phone bill will be huge.
My daughter, I love you.
- Got it.
- Dad will get better soon.
Talk soon.
Take care.
I'm sorry, you should be sleeping.
My daughter is overseas,
thus the time difference.
It's okay, don't worry about it.
I also just spoke with my daughter.
Was that your wife earlier?
No, she's a friend.
My wife has gone on a trip far away.
Honey.
Mia.
Mia, Mia.
Welcome to Hotel California.
Such a lovely place.
Such a lovely place.
Let's go to California.
Mia, that's the place you
wanted to go so much, California.
This time, our whole
family is going together.
We'll go and show it to Kang Hee as well.
This time we're spending
Christmas in California.
How about it? Nice, right?
This time, I…
This time, when I go to Seoul,
I'll definitely buy a plane
ticket and come back.
You can trust me this time.
This time it's for real.
I promise you, okay?
Thanks to you, I arrived.
Is this a donkey managed by the clinic?
It looks just like Julie,
whom I raised in San Francisco.
Did you raise a donkey?
Yes.
It's a bit small for a miniature breed.
It's a child abandoned by its owner,
so we're looking for a place to send it.
Oh dear, that's unfortunate.
May I take it with me?
Oh, right…
I should introduce myself.
I happened to be passing by
to drive your mother,
and I just met eyes with this donkey.
Our eyes locked so deeply.
Come by with your mother,
and check if the conditions
are fit for raising a donkey.
Well then, that's all.
Take care.
Who is that person?
Who are you? Do you know me?
Mom.
Mom, please at least unblock me.
That worked out well.
I was just about to say hello and leave.
Where are you going?
Seoul.
I need to confirm the order,
but I can't reach Director Geum.
I'm thinking of going there myself.
Do you really have to go?
Wait.
Hand.
Come back quickly.
I don't know what it is, but cheer up.
And wait for me.
Okay, I'll take good care of the house.
Director.
Your phone was turned off.
I've confirmed the order.
When will you come to the site?
I'll see.
This.
I'll go back and take a look.
It's my first time
seeing the director like that.
It's the same for me.
Maybe,
it's probably the shock, as it is the
first time he has lost in a competition.
He'll overcome it.
Because he is a bright and pleasant person.
The truth is, he is not
really the competitive type.
"Can't do it? Okay, I won't then."
He has always been like this.
It's also the first time I've seen it.
It seems he liked you a lot.
I'm not too worried because he has you.
This time, even I am of no use.
I gave the driver a vacation
on purpose, you know?
Seok Kyeong was trying to get a ride
using that as an excuse.
He says he dislikes driving.
Let's go, I will give you a ride.
We've arrived.
Thank you.
Oh? It's Victor.
He's with Emily.
Who is it?
Victor's cousin.
No…
Get out. Hurry and get out, Esther.
I'll go in full speed.
What's wrong?
We'll go to the hospital first.
- It's so delicious.
- Chun Pil.
Oh, you're here?
Eat.
Tell him about Kang Hee.
I'm telling you to talk about it now.
Hurry up and go! Hurry!
Go, quickly.
It's about Kang Hee.
Speak, it's okay.
You didn't know Kang Hee was proposed
to by a man living in Seoul, did you?
The neighborhood was in quite an uproar.
To have received such a grand proposal, and
in the meantime, while that man
went to Seoul, she and Yeon Soo…
I see.
Why do you talk about
it with such excitement?
I understood.
No.
Su Ji will hear about it soon, too.
I thought you should know.
Okay, I got it.
Shall I call Ms. Kang Hee up to Seoul?
There's a lot of work
for her at the headquarters.
No.
Even so, the last memories
at Hana-eup, it shouldn't be like that.
Yes.
You said it's Kang Hee's first
time as a field manager, right?
- Yes.
- But that girl
is struggling alone in Seoul.
She built her career with difficulty.
Don't we have something
like an opening ceremony?
Of course, we're planning to do it
splendidly with a rooftop pool party.
Actually, it would be really nice if
Kang Hee was the main character that day.
Kang Hee could remember
Hana-eup with that memory.
And the people of Hana-eup as well,
will remember Kang Hee
as a successful designer.
Yes, Mr. Chun Pil.
I was short-sighted.
No, not at all.
Chun Pil!
Chun Pil!
Then, I will go to the construction site.
Yes, take care.
Stay still.
You heard that, too?
What I was worried
about has finally happened.
What are you going to do now?
What is there to do about it?
Just have to cut it off!
I heard that the hotel heir
has proposed to Kang Hee.
She should live comfortably in Seoul
with that man. Why is she seeing Yeon Soo?
No, even to the point of being
pointed at by the people in this town.
What honor is there to gain?
It's about Kang Hee,
who is a top-notch interior designer.
What synergy could possibly come out
of seeing a countryside veterinarian?
What!
Are you saying that Yeon Soo
is lacking right now, Chun Pil?
No, that's not what I mean.
I have experience, right?
Forced into a marriage
that was opposed, you know.
After Kang Hee's mother
had a tough married life.
Hey, just thinking about
that makes me really…
Rather than have you mistreat her,
I'd rather send Kang Hee up to Seoul.
Hey, be honest.
You are not sure to treat Kang Hee well.
Are you sure that you won't mistreat her?
There shouldn't have been
such a situation in the first place!
That's why!
I'll settle things well,
so it doesn't happen.
Don't get involved.
I trust you.
Ah, don't worry, Soon Ja.
Su Ji.
I think you just need to check this part.
Yes, I will take action right away.
- Yes.
- Yes.
You all have worked hard.
Yes, thank you.
When did you arrive?
She has been here since earlier,
looking around everywhere.
Oh, you came?
Ms. Hwang!
You came without notice?
What's the big deal, between us?
It feels like a mother-in-law is coming in
to inspect the house while it's empty.
The mother-in-law went too far.
- How about Mom?
- Sorry?
Kang Hee.
I'm your mom…
Ew! Ms. Hwang, that's gross!
Aren't you cold?
Wear something like a muffler.
What about the one I gifted you?
It seems to turn out
even better than expected.
Suffer a little bit more.
Next time you come,
please wear a padded jacket,
- It's cold.
- Yes.
I'll treat you to a company
dinner before I go.
Find a place.
Just give me the card.
It's burdensome if you come along.
Is that so?
Then, we'd have to listen to the manager.
Got it.
That's right, it belongs
to President Hwang.
Did you go on the trip with the president?
Well, we are both adults, after all.
Who's saying what?
Can't I even ask?
Then, can I ask something too?
If I don't see President Hwang,
can you also not see Yeon Soo?
Mr. Chun Pil.
The question is a bit raw.
Knock, knock.
Mister.
Welcome. Have you been well?
No. Kang Hee and I missed you a lot.
Really?
I heard the rumors.
You'll support us, right?
We don't know about others,
but you're on our side.
Mister.
Living, I've realized life is really short.
Yeon Soo, don't live a hard life.
Are you saying this because you're
worried Kang Hee might struggle?
Don't worry, I might go to Seoul.
I also know how much you like Hana-eup.
I also know very well how much
Kang Hee dislikes Hana-eup.
I don't like it when you
guys have a hard time.
Mister.
He hasn't been a dad since I was ten,
what has he been doing all this time?
Is he pretending to be a dad now?
I'm just dumbfounded.
What should we do?
What do you mean, "what should we do"?
I didn't know your father would object.
Just ignore it.
So what? Should I see you
because your mother agrees?
That's true, though.
You'll take responsibility for me, right?
I don't want to go home.
Then, shall we go to Seoul?
Just for the sake of it, let's go
for a drive and get some fresh air.
And finish what we haven't done.
Okay.
You be prepared.
You be prepared!
Then let me just check on the animals
one last time before we go.
If you need to pack anything,
pack it and come out.
See you at the parking lot in 30 minutes.
Okay.
See you later.
You
think you win against me?
Eventually,
you'll be punished by heaven,
just like your mother.
Do you remember this?
Now, everyone, get ready.
Let's go.
I wished that this man was my father.
Because he always made Mom laugh.
Actually, me too.
I also wished that your mom was my mother.
We've been accomplices since then.
Indeed.
Is it okay for us to do this, Yeon Soo?
I'm sure both of them
would want us to be happy.
Don't worry.
- Please come out.
- It seems like a severe injury.
Stop!
- What?
- There's been an accident.
Where?
Pull over!
Pull over!
Pulse and oxygen saturation
seem to be all right.
There's no consciousness.
Prepare for brain CT and also
conduct a blood test, please.
Yes.
You'll be punished by heaven,
just like your mother.
Is it okay for us to do this, Yeon Soo?
