Apr 30th, 2008 | By Jackie | Category: (MBC) Last ScandalSong Jae Bin banged at the door.
Song Jae Bin: Sun Hee, didn’t you say to trust in me?
Song Jae Bin banged the door.
Song Jae Bin: You fool. You think because I remain here, you can run away? Sun Hee!
Ajumma plucked up the courage to open the door to face the crowd
Reporters: She is out. Camera. Quick. Quick
Are you a divorcee with a child, Correct?
A divorcee.
Song Jae Bin hugged her. Ajumma and Song Jae Bin just were looking at each other with voice over
Song Jae Bin: Thank you for trusting me (v/o)
Ajumma: Thank you for waiting for me (v/o)
Song Jae Bin: I’m sorry to have had you sad. Are you alright? (v/o)
Song Jae Bin hugged her and Ajumma found the security in Song Jae Bin’s arms.
Reporters went wild clicking their cameras
Verandah was filling with reporters
In the car (How did they escape from the crowd is not shown).
Ajumma consoling Ji Min who was frightened from the ordeal
Ajumma: Was it frightening?
Jin Min: You should be the one more frighten. Are you alright?
Song Jae Bin was looking at them with the rear mirror.
Song Jae Bin: Why? It is because of me, that it had come to this. I should be the one who is deeply sorry on what had happened. Both of you, being so nice, make me turn out to be the villain.
Ajumma: Oppa, what villain? It is the crowd who are at fault.
Ji Min: Omma. When did you know about Song Jae Bin’s age?
Ajumma: Oh! That, actually we are classmates
Jin Min: Classmate? Really?
Song Jae Bin: Ah! Really! Why should I lied? We are not only just classmates, but first love too
Jin Min was shocked when she heard this. Ajumma tried to stop Song Jae Bin from going further
Song Jae Bin: Ji Min. I don’t like to lie.
Ji Min: Yes. I hate it when especially it is close kin who lies
Ajumma: I’m sorry
Ji Min: But Omma. How did you escape? Those reporters are something else.
(Yes, I like to want to know too, but it was never explain or shown how, some continuity issue missing from this scene)
Ajumma: Oh! Is it? Just we came out of it?
Song Jae Bin: Ah! Really! Ji Min hates secrets. Ji Min, Oppa was afraid that your mother will be exposed, so when she came out I embrace her tightly. The camera were clicking away left, right and centre. I was so frightened. Really! I should have kick them away.
Ji Min: Wah!
Song Jae Bin: Anyway Ji Min. I have abide to my promise that I made to you to bring you mother out.
Ji Min: Yes, Oppa. Omma, I was so afraid I will not be able to see you. It is so fortunate.
Ajumma: Me too
Ji Min rested her head on Ajumma’s shoulder as the ordeal had made her tired
Ji Min: Call me when we have arrive
Ajumma: Yes. Rest
Song Jae Bin winked at the rear mirror at Ajumma
Jang Dong Hwa surfing the net to find the sensational news by the Press discovering of Ajumma as Song Jae Bin’s woman.
Headline ”Song Jae Bin’s woman finally reveal herself”
Everybody was eager to know about them, even his own staff enquired out of curiosity. The staff was saying that they had received a lot of call asking about Ajumma’s identity. Jang Dong Hwa told him, in order to appease this scandal, they come up some form of counter measures
Back to the Jangs’ House.
Song Jae Bin gave up his room for the mother and daughter to spent a night. As usual before the days of Ajumma, Song Jae Bin was a very untidy person, he came in to tidy up whatever he can. He offered his room to them. Song Jae Bin told them to spent a night there from the the harassment of the reporters as it is not save for them to return to their house. Ajumma wasn’t keen. She suggested the quarters.
Ajumma: It is posing on you. Why don’t we sleep at the quarters?
Song Jae Bin: It is cold, there isn’t any furniture. There will be spirits…spirits (ghost, what a lame excuse).
Ji Min: If it was in the past, I really dream of sleeping in Oppa’s bed, I will not be able to sleep from excitement.
Ji Min now feel a bit in a dilemma now she knew of the truth about the relationship between her mother and Song Jae Bin.
Song Jae Bin: Oh? What do you mean?
Ji Min: Oh! You said you are Omma’s classmate. I felt that is something amiss here. Omma, how should I address him now?
Ajumma: Oh! He is Omma’s friend, then just simply address him as Ajusshi will do.
Song Jae Bin: What Ajusshi? Not so long ago, I was still the Country No. 1 Oppa. Now it is Ajusshi. Ji Min just like before address me as Oppa
Ji Min: How can it be so? I can’t
Ajumma: Of course. In not a long while, you will be 40 years old, how can it still be Oppa?
Song Jae Bin: Where did this absurd pair of mother and daughter come from? Quickly sleep.
Song Jae Bin left. Ajumma was finally feeling the relief after the ordeal. Ji Min went to bed to give it a bounce for feel at Song Jae Bin’s bed.
Ji Min: Ah! Really!
Ajumma: Ji Min. Don’t jump on other’s people bed?
Ji Min: Omma, will Jae Bin Oppa, will he never be an actor?
Ajumma: What to do we don’t have a change of clothes?
Song Jae Bin came in
Song Jae bin: There isn’t any change of clothes?
Song Jae Bin went to his closet and brought out two sets of track suits
Song Jae Bin: Here, change into this
Ajumma: Thank you
Song Jae Bin was still standing there. Ajumma and Ji Min found it strange that he did not leave the room for them to change in private
Song Jae Bin: Aren’t you changing?
Ji Min: Aren’t you leaving?
Song Jae Bin: Oh! Leaving. Change.
Song Jae Bin realized he had to give the ladies the privacy but still made some excuse that he was looking for something, lingered in the room. By this time Song Jae Bin looked more like a peeping Tom.

Song Jae Bin: Where did I put it?
Ajumma: What is it?
Song Jae Bin: Nothing. It look like I can’t find something. Where is it?
Song Jae Bin left the room before giving Ajumma a wink.
Song Jae Bin will be spending in the sofa for a night when Ji Min came down the stairs
Ji Min: What are you doing?
Song Jae Bin: Why are you down here?
Ji Min: Nothing.
Ji Min sat down.
Ji Min: Recently, you have not been sleeping well?
Song Jae Bin: Oh? I had been thinking a lot on my mind
Ji Min: When you are eating, who come to your mind?
Song Jae Bin: Don’t know. Each time, it is not the same
Ji Min: I, recently had been thinking about mother a lot
Song Jae Bin: Is it?
Ji Min: Out of the blue, will think of her and smiled. What is it that will stimulate your heart that you will feel better? When you don’t see that person, your heart will grown fonder. Isn’t there such a person?
Song Jae Bin: Hmmm. There is. But it is not just one person
Ji Min: Are you two timming?
Song Jae Bin started counting with his fingers
Song Jae Bin: No. It is not just 2 but 1….4 persons
Ji Min: Ah! It looks like Oppa is a Casanova
Song Jae Bin: We are a family aren’t we? Ji Min? There is Hu, you and your mother.
Ji Min: Yes.
Song Jae Bin: I like your mother very much. Do you know? In the beginning it was just friends, now it is slightly more than just friends.
Ji Min: Then what are you planning to do?
Song Jae Bin: If you permit, it will be more that it is presently is, if you don’t, then it stay as it is.
Song Jae Bin took Ji Min’s hands
Song Jae Bin: Ji Min. I will not say anymore. You and I. I will make a promise to you. I will always be by you and your mother’s side. Promise.
Song Jae Bin pinched Ji Min’s cheek
Song Jae Bin: Oh! You are so cute, just the same with your mother
Ajumma came down to see Ji Min was downstairs with Song Jae Bin
Ajumma: What are you both doing?
Song Jae Bin whispered to Ji MIn
Song Jae Bin: Don’t say this to anyone that I like your mother, or else you mother….
Ajumma: What?
Ji Min: Just some matter. Omma. I will go to Hu’s room to play on the computer and then go to bed
Jin Min went upstairs.
Ajumma: What did you say to Ji Min?
Song Jae Bin: I don’t know. Ah! She just asked me to be her father.
Ajumma was shocked at the statement
Song Jae Bin: I don’t know whether it is worth to sacrifice so much
Ajumma: Who have agreed? Don’t said any nonsense to Ji Min? Lately she have been very sensitive
Song Jae Bin: I didn’t say anything. Just asked her, how is your mother? I just said it, truly, that’s it.
Ajumma: Truly? What did you say?
Song Jae Bin looked at Ajumma
Song: Why? Do you know what my heart is feeling?
Meanwhile Jang Dong Hwa came home and saw them getting closer. He made his presence felt.
Ajumma: Oh! Sang Jang Nim, you are back
Jang Dong Hwa: Yes
Ajumma: Have you eaten?
Jang Dong Hwa: I have already
Song Jae bin: Hyung, Ajumma and Ji Min will be here, to sleep for the night
Jang Dong Hwa: Yes. Fine. Today the reporters must have given you a shock.
Ajumma: Not at all. We have been giving inconveniences to you. I’m sorry
Jang Dong Hwa: Not at all
Ajumma wanted to leave but Song Jae Bin hold her back
Song Jae Bin: Where are you going?
Ajumma: I’m tired
Jang Dong Hwa went upstairs threading carefully to allow the lovers some privacy with their bickering
Song Jae Bin tossing and turning in the sofa.
Song Jae Bin: Ah! Is she coming down to take a look at me?
Song Jae Bin texted message to her. Ajumma received it
Text “I don’t have a pillow. I can’t sleep. Sent it down to the gym”
Ajumma was angry that Song Jae Bin still will not leave her in peace. She was regretting taking the offer to sleep in Song Jae Bin’s room
Ajumma: What is this all about, you can come and stay in my room
In the gym. Ajumma bringing the pillow looking dazed
Ajumma: What without a pillow, you can’t sleep? You are really a nuisance. Here
Song Jae Bin was in a serious mood. Song Jae Bin took the pillow from her
Song: Thank you
Ajumma turned around when she hear a sudden sadness in his tone of voice
Song Jae Bin: Tired? Go and sleep.
Ajumma: Are you alright?
Song Jae Bin handed her a box and place it on the table.
Song Jae Bin: This period because of me, have cause you to be stressed
Ajumma: Oh?
Song Jae Bin: Accept this
Ajumma: What is this?
Song Jae Bin: What is it, present? I don’t know. I just followed what are your favourites, on what you like and give it to you
Ajumma opened the box to reveal a stack of bank accounts passbooks and documents
Ajumma: What is this?
Song Jae Bin: Don’t you like it? Savings. Property titles amd Insurance policies. The shares, Hyung is looking after it. So I can’t give to you right now. Once it is settle, I will give it to you.
Ajumma was shocked
Ajumma: What is this? Why are you giving it to me?
Song Jae Bin: Anyway once we are married, these things, aren’t these matter suppose to be your responsible of care. Aren’t these what a wife should do?
Ajumma: Yah! Married. What marriage?
Song Jae Bin: Sun Hee. You and I. I don’t wish too much from you. I just wish to have your heart. Is my wish too much to ask for? I, because of you had let go of Song Jae Bin.
Ajumma: Although, it is so, but…
Song Jae Bin: Sun Hee.
Song Jae Bin stood up and started to unbutton his shirt then push it over his shoulder to her. It is the same action, she did when she came to ask Song Jae Bin to pay for a one night stand with her in order to get the bail money for her husband. This, of course led to her being his household Nanny. The rest is history
Ajumma: You….
Song Jae Bin: You just agreed this time once. Buy me?
Ajumma: You….you….What are you doing?
Song Jae bin: Buy me?
Ajumma was in for a shock when Song Jae Bin approached her. Ajumma and Song Jae Bin went round chasing at the pool table until Song Jae Bin hurt his foot when he stepped on something
Ajumma: Get away from me! Get away!
Song Jae Bin: Why? Didn’t you did this before?
Ajumma: Aigoo! When are going to grow up?
Song Jae Bin: Aigoo! Just think of it yourself, what exactly did you do?
Ajumma: What did I do?
Song Jae bin: Come with me
Song Jae Bin took her to show the wall graffiti
Song Jae Bin: What is this?
“19 years old Hong Sun Hee is Jang Dong Chul’s 1st love. 39 years old Hong Sun Hee wish to be Song Jae Bin’s 1st love”
Song Jae Bin: Open your eyes wide. Who wrote this? Hyung wrote this?
Ajumma shook her head
Song Jae Bin: Then Hu? Ji Min? Look at it. Is you who wrote it, isn’t it?
Ajumma: Yah! This is….
Song Jae Bin: Why are you pretending? Just look. You have fallen for me completely. This you want to stop it, you already can’t.
Ajumma: Ah! Really!
Song Jae Bin: Come. Let’s talk. Sit down
Song Jae Bin sat next to her.
Song Jae Bin: Hong Sun Hee. How much do you understand about me? My blood type. My shoes size. My favourite books. My favourite music. Then what is Jang Dong Chul thinking?
Jang Dong Hwa came down and saw the gym lights on, eavesdropped on them
Ajumma: I want to know how am I going to live with Jang Dong Chul?
Song Jae Bin: I just want to do something that I like and to do it to my best abilities
Ajumma: What is it?
Song Jae Bin: A life of many masks
Ajumma: What?
Song Jae bin: It can be hard, once I rest, I wish to resume to be an artiste. Now at present it will be difficult.
Ajumma held Song Jae Bin’s hand to give him the assurance
Ajumma: You definitely go ahead and do it
Song Jae Bin: Really?
Ajumma: Of course.
Song Jae Bin: What do you want to do after this? What do you best?
Ajumma: My best looks like cooking. My cooking taste is good. Do the laundry well?
Song Jae Bin: Yes I must agree. When I wear the clothes you wash, it have a good feel to it.
Ajumma: Do you know? The whole day cooking, washing and cleaning although it is repeated, is boring but when Ji Min wants to look for me, wanting to eat, need a towel to look for me, Whatever things to look for me. I felt that I am the most wanted person. My heart will feel great
Song Jae Bin: Is it? Then when I want to eat, I will look for you. So if you are not there, I will die. Whatever it is said that Household nanny Hong Sun Hee is your life’s designation. Designation?
Ajumma was not pleased with the remark
Song Jae Bin: Great. Fine. You, can be my lifetime household nanny?
Song Jae Bin took Ajumma’s hand and hang it around his neck, he then took out a diamond ring and put it on her finger
Song Jae Bin: Income, I will earn, you can save it all up
Ajumma was taken in
Song: Is it beautiful?
Jang Dong Hwa’s office. Song Jae Bin and Ajumma were in the office, looking guilty at the reports of their “scandal”.
Jang Dong Hwa: Have you seen the news? Looks like the present moment, if this gets drag any longer, it will be trouble. When Jae Bin publicly announced to retire, the ripples effect of it, the lost of income is getting wider. It look like we cannot cover the expenditure anymore.
Ajumma: How much lost of income?
Jang: It is not clear but in the midst of doing a calculation. CF alone is about 100 million.
Ajumma: 100 million?
Song Jae Bin: Why with money you always have this kind of reaction? Do you know what my value is?
Ajumma: Really! Is this the time to be acting this way now?
Jang: There must be a solution to this. Both of you…..get married

Ajumma and Song Jae Bin looked in horror at Jang Dong Hwa’s suggestion to settle this mess
Ajumma: What?
Song Jae Bin: Aigoo! Really! It is only this that you have to let Ajumma to bear the responsibilities as well. Oh! Hyung. We are finished here. Quickly leave
Song Jae Bin dragged Ajumma off the seat.
Ajumma: Sang Jang Nim. Goodbye. What are you doing? Let go.
Jang Dong Hwa already started on his plan as he called to check up on the progress of the Fan Meeting
In Ajumma’ s house. Ajumma pondered on the fact about marriage.
Ajumma: Ah! Really! At this age to think of remarriage

But she liked the idea and smiled. A phone call came in. It was Lee Na Yun.
Ajumma: Hello?
Lee Na Yun: It is Lee Na Yun. I want to see you. How about today?
Ajumma: It’s fine. I come over.
Lee Na Yun’s hotel suite.
Lee Na Yun: Hong Sun Hee, compare to me, you are now famous.
Ajumma: Ah! That.
Lee Na Yun: The last time you were here, you were very bold. Why today? Have you done me wrong?
Ajumma: Not done wrong but have some regret.
Lee Na Yun: It looks like in the papers, you have courage, but actually it’s not. Hong Sun Hee.
Ajumma: Yes
Lee Na Yun: After this whether in front of me or anyone else, you definitely cannot be discourage. This way, you can’t become a Star’s lover. It will be more difficult compare to what you may think. The industry is only temporary but there are many envy in this industry. If it is not manage well, there may be grave consequences to bear. Whatever, this industry will make you receive many emotion hardship. I will return to America tomorrow
Ajumma: What?
Lee Na Yun: I can’t stay here anymore to see the both of you. I’m Lee Na Yun
Ajumma: Then what about Hu?
Lee started to sob
Lee Na Yun: I’m not like Song Jae Bin, can’t let go of being Lee Na Yun and return to become Hu’s mother. Until then, Hu please take care of him.
Lee Na Yun stood up to offer her hand for a handshake
Lee Na Yun: This time don’t fail again
Ajumma stood up and shook her hand
Ajumma: Thank you.
Lee Na Yun: I have an interview. If there is a chance to meet, we will meet again.
Ajumma left and Lee Na Yun cried quietly
Airport Departure Hall. Lee Na Yun was leaving Korea but saw Jang Dong Hwa and Hu were at the airport to sent her off. Jang Dong Hwa claimed that Hu wanted to come and see her. Jang Dong Hwa gave them some private moments alone together.
Hu: Ji Min said we look like each other.
Lee Na Yun looked at Hu
Hu: I also feel it is so.
Lee Na Yun: I too think it is so. Do you hate me?
Hu shook his head. Hu came close to hug Lee Na Yun and she cried
Lee Na Yun: I’m sorry….I’m sorry
Ji Min went to meet her father Ahn Yoon Sik. He was happy to see her
Ahn Yoon Sik: Ji Min…look at you…you don’t look so well. You must be sadden because of your mother. I have seen the news report, I was shocked. How can she be a mother? It is very intolerable behaviour. Come. Let Appa brighten your spirit up. Where do you want to go? Shopping Mall? Come.
Ji Min: Appa?
Ahn Yoon Sik: Yes?
Ji Min: Shall I come to stay with you?
Ahn Yoon Sik: What?
Ji Min: If you agree, I will think about it.
Ahn Yoon Sik: Why? Why? Did Dong Chul that fellow bully you?
Ji Min shooked her head.
Ji Min: It is not that. I just want to know what you think.
Ahn Yoon Sik giving some thoughts and started to make up excuses
Ahn Yoon Sik: But Ji Min. I now have some matter to attend. Don’t be like this? Do you want to go for further studies?
Ji Min doesn’t like what she saw when she tested for her father’s reaction
Ahn Yoon Sik: No. Then what is it? Being together is not appropriate. You said on any other matter I will definitely agree
Ji Min was not happy about her father’s sincerity
Ji Min: So it is to say that you don’t want to be with me at all.
Ahn Yoon Sik: You should know that I been very busy lately. Just to meet each other once a while, isn’t it good enough? Ji Min, This is what I think. If you don’t agree, you will not permit your mother to see that fellow Dong Chul. Your mother will listen to you. Actually at this age to be having love relationship, what is it? You just say it is an embarrassment. You don’t like it to have a mother who is becoming this way. Go and debate the facts with her
Ji Min: What have mother done wrong to have this debate with her. Mother is a person, a woman. Why can’t she love someone else?
Ahn Yoon Sik: What? How old are you now?
Ahn Yoon Sik can’t even remember how old her daughter and was trying to count out her age
Ahn Yoon Sik: 12? No. 13? Why are you maturing so early? Did you mother allow you to come?
Ji Min: Appa?
Ahn Yoon Sik: Hmmm
Ji Min: I will never marry someone who is like you.
Ahn Yoo Sik: What?
Ji Min: I’m off
Ji Min left Ahn Yoon Sik. She was disappointed with her own father
Ahn Yoon Sik: Ji Min….Ji Min…Ahn Ji Min
In Ajumma’s house. Ajumma was cleaning the floor, when Jang Dong Hwa came by to say that he will be moving out of the house. Once Ajumma was married to Song Jae Bin and she will be moving in to the house. Jang Dong Hwa mentioned he wanted some space to relax. Ajumma said that moving out will have its such inconveniences. She asked why should he doing that, and he should continue to live with them like before. In his serious tone, he told her that there was no such thing for the elder brother in law to stay with them. It was deem inappropriate and it might be a cause for people might talk and a taboo. Jang Dong Hwa asked Ajumma to apologise. Ajumma was surprised, but only to find out that Jang Dong Hwa was indeed joking.
In the night. Ajumma was writing a letter. The phone rang and it was Song Jae Bin
Ajumma: Oh! Haven’t got to sleep yet?
Song Jae Bin: I can’t sleep. What are you doing?
Ajumma: Just. I’m thinking what to say to you?
Song Jae Bin: What do you want to say?
Ajumma: If I can say it, I wouldn’t be thinking.
Song Jae Bin: I am getting curious. It is not as though tomorrow you are going to make some great headlines
Ajumma: Go to bed?
Song Jae Bin: I know. Sun Hee. I miss you. Sleep well
Ajumma hung up and started writing
Screaming fans. It was the last Fan Meeting to commerate Song Jae Bin’s Last Scandal of his life plus wedding ceremony.
Jang Dong Hwa prepared himself as the limosine come in and he opened the door. Hu and Ji Min came out and Jang Dong Hwa helped Ajumma who was dressed in wedding gown with a veil, out of the car. Jang Dong Hwa escorted Ajumma to walk down the aisle.
Jang Dong Hwa: Thank you for taking the burden of taking care of Dong Chul. If you want to let go of Dong Chul, you will not be able to do it now. Congratulations, younger sister in law
Ajumma: Thank you
Jang Dong Hwa handed her hand to Song Jae Bin. Song Jae Bin lifted her veil and kissed her
V/O of the letter she wrote
Dong Chul, it have been great to have met you. It is because of you, just innocent and pure as a child, to think you think you miss me and said that you miss me. I called you and you are there always for me. As a 39 years old, because of the seriousness in life and had endured many hardship. But because I have return to be the 19 years old, I can love someone. Now it is because of the love you gave me that I have confidence. Just as you have said to me, compare to the 19 years old Hong Sun Hee, I like the 39 years old Hong Sun Hee better. I’m grateful that you have allowed me to be love in life. Thank you very much, because of Dong Chul, Sun Hee has happiness.
The ceremony was telecasted live on television
Ahn Yoon Sik was calculating his account to find that the wine business was still in the red. Go Jung Suk walked in and asked Ahn Yoon Sik to look at the live telecast and said how romantic the whole wedding was. Ahn Yoon Sik was slightly jealous. He said what was so happy about his ex-wife is getting married (to a better man) and went out to have some Soju in the tavern. As he has no money, Go Jung Suk joined him.
Jang Dong Hwa found that the wedding had received magnificent response. The event had arouse great interest in CF and movie deals. Jang Dong Hwa said all thing will come if they have patience
At Jang’s house. Song Jae Bin carried Ajumma to the bed
Song Jae Bin: There is some sadness that we didn’t go for honeymoon?
Ajumma: I don’t like to been seen by reporters
Song Jae Bin: Me too
Song Jae Bin then put Ajumma on the bed
The next scene I will not write any further and asked you to see it for yourself. Choi Jin Shil and Jung Jun Ho gave a great performance on the scene.
The next morning. The reality sat in and Ajumma found herself in present state. Song Jae Bin was looking on at her. Ajumma pulled for the covers
Ajumma: What happened?
Song Jae Bin: Why?
Ajumma: Don’t look
Song Jae Bin: What I have seen, you are the most beautiful
Ajumma: 40 years old, how far can a beauty go?
Song Jae Bin: Don’t you know. Whether it is 40 years or 50 years, a woman is already a beauty in itself. But the woman never realize this as a fact
Ajumma: What?
Song Jae Bin kissed Ajumma on the cheek when Hu walked in, saw them and did a roundabout turn and left
Ajumma: Hu? Hu? I must be mad, The children are going to be late for school.
Ajumma dressed up
Song Jae Bin: Let me get ready
Ajumma: Get ready quickly and eat together
Song Jae Bin: What is this? All woken up
Song Jae Bin’s vision of a romance have just shattered
In the kitchen. Ajumma was fixing breakfast for the children.
Ajumma: Hu, this is breast meat, put this in between your bread. It is nice to eat. Ji Min have some.
Song Jae Bin came down and tabbed his hand on Ajumma’s shoulder. The kids were watching. Ajumma took his hand off
Hu: Ji Min, we will be late. Ajumma. We are off
Ji Min: Oppa, we are off
Ajumma: Yes, it is getting late. Quickly
Song Jae Bin: Wait a moment . You are calling us Ajumma and Oppa, doesn’t it feel a bit awkward?
Hu: How are we suppose to address?
Ji Min: Yes?
Ajumma: They will be late? Quickly go off
Song Jae Bin: Yah! I was saying something to them, why did you ask them to leave? Is school more important than family? Calling me Oppa and you Ajumma
Ajumma: Can’t be change overnight. The children need time to adapt.
Song Jae Bin: Is it? I understand. The matter we will discuss this when we go and take them out this weekend.
Song Jae Bin was leaving but hugged Ajumma from behind
Song Jae Bin: Why don’t we go out and eat?
Ajumma: Please don’t be like this at the house. The children are still young and sensitive.
Song Jae Bin: Did I do something wrong? What about us being husband and wife?
Ajumma: Our family is not the same like others, just now Hu was very shy
Song Jae Bin: I’m also shy. Why aren’t you giving me the same concerns?
Ajumma looked at Song Jae Bin
Song Jae Bin: Fine. Today I as Jang Dong Chul’s first day at work. Come with me
Ajumma: Why do I need to be there?
Song Jae bin: This is a public occasion
Ajumma: I don’t want to. I go to these places and there will be cameras waiting. These days have been busy and the fridge is almost empty. I need to go to the market to make some dishes
Song Jae Bin: Yah! To you, I can’t be least important than dishes. Don’t speak nonsense, I asked you to attend, you better attend.
Ajumma: I don’t want to. Yah! You are the star, not me who is?
Song Jae Bin: Are you really going to be like this to me?
Ajumma: What?
Song Jae Bin: Fine. I don’t need you.
Song Jae Bin left in a huff
Business had been bad at the Wine Bar and Ahn Yoon Sik went to the bank for a loan and met Song Jae Bin’s Driver and Assistant who were discussing on what wedding present they want to give to Song Jae Bin and Ajumma. Ahn Yoon Sik wasn’t pleased with what he heard.
Sidewalk café. Jang Dong Hwa was reading a book at lunch, when there was a lady on the next table. Jang Dong Hwa’s phone rang and it was Ajumma now his sister in law asking him if she could come over the house to give him some side dishes. Jang Dong Hwa said not to bother as he will drop by the house this weekend to see the kids and he can take the side dishes from her. Ajumma was glad that Jang Dong Hwa was doing fine staying outside on his own. Jang continued reading when a call from the lady who we later we know her as Kim Yu Rim. She was a single woman, a novelist to several famous titles. It’s her mother.
Kim: Hello, Mother. Again. Madam Song, why do you need to be like this? You just give up. I’m busy, right now.
She then puts her phone at a distance
Kim Yu Rim: Yes, Editor, I will be there right away.
She then took the battery out from the phone. (kdrama classic: If you don’t want to answer your phone, you can’t just switch it off, the batteries need to be taken off)
Jang Dong Hwa was smiling at her actions
Press Conference. Jang Dong Chul had been made Ambassador or spokeperson for the Korean Speedboat World racing held in Korea. Ajumma came to lend her support and Song Jae Bin shown everyone that he will attend the race with his wife over there. Camera went clicking. Ajumma managed to make a V sign for the cameras
Back at Jang Dong Hwa’s office. His staff came in as Jang was off for a meeting. They are having problems with the novelist who was not keen to give the rights to make a movie out of her book.
Staff: Are you going personally? It may not be easy
Jang Dong Hwa: What is that?
Staff: The writer perspective is very firm
Jang Dong Hwa: Because of the publishing rights
Staff: No. It is that the writer is slightly direct, to take her novel to shoot it into a drama or a movie will bungled it up. So the writer doesn’t have much trust in it. We have sent many representative to persuade her, but it is useless
Jang Dong Hwa: We shall see when we meet
Sidewalk café. The writer he was about to meet was the same lady he met during lunch who took off the batteries off
Jang Dong Hwa: Are you Kim Yu Rim? I’m Media entertainment Jang Dong Hwa. It looks like we had meet before?
Kim Yu Rim: Interesting?
Jang Dong Hwa: What?
Kim Yu Rim: My novel
Jang Dong Hwa: That’s why I came for
Kim Yu Rim: Why is it have to be my novel? There are many famous novel around. There are those who write and sell the rights are also many.
Jang Dong Hwa: Your writing is fresh and out of this current trend. From the first chapter each person will read it, may not come to the same conclusion. It is not of the ordinary. If it can be made into a movie, it will be a good product. Just to see it in books, is a pity.
Kim Yu Rim: It is said that you are interested in the book? You have seen a third of it and have already yawn 3 times
Jang Dong Hwa: Ah!
Kim Yu Rim: Said to be interested is false?
Jang Dong Hwa: There are times when I read a book not for business prospect but a book to read just for leisure in the afternoon, so that is why I chose to read Ms Yu Rim’s books
Kim Yu Rim: I’m sorry. My book is such a yawn stimulates me. Let sign the contract….What is the term and conditions?
Jang Dong Hwa smiles. (We see this relationship no further that this, so we have to make our own conclusion)
Family outing. Song Jae Bin dragged the reluctant children for a trip
Hu: Uncle!
Ji Min: Oppa!
The children were complaining. Hu over that exam was near and Ji Min had an appointment with friends
Ji Min: Jae Bin Oppa, you are too dictatorial
Song Jae Bin: Keep quiet. Why are you all so nagging? I have said it. We need to go for these trips. United we stand Divided we fall. If you say anymore, we will go to the mountain next weekend. Understand?
Hu: Uncle?
Ji Min: Oppa?
Song Jae Bin: Look at you. Are we consider a family? Father can be called Uncle, and one to be called Oppa
Ajumma: There is Ajumma. What are you doing?
Song Jae Bin: So until we are comfortable to call Omma and Appa, we will be making a great effort on it, by getting ourselves closely knitted.
Picnic. Song Jae Bin and the kids were having fun at the park, while Ajumma looked on. She felt that everybody was staring at her.
Ajumma: Want to hide but nowhere to do it? Dong Chul, that fellow at his age.
Song Jae Bin turned around and Ajumma staring at him. Song Jae Bin talked to her on the walkie talkie
Song Jae Bin: Hong Sun Hee, Come here, Over
Ajumma: What is it, Over?
Song Jae Bin: Why aren’t you participating, Over?
Ajumma: Everybody is looking. How to have fun? Over
Song Jae Bin: Aiyah! Why are you like that? Over. I want you to reply before sun set, Over
Ajumma: I can’t really talk through him.
Ajumma wanted them to finish up eating the picnic so that she can go home and hide
Ajumma opened up the picnic boxes and called for the children to come and eat but none of them were interested as they want to continue to play on
Ajumma unzipped the boxes to find a note.
“Song Jae Bin who have the love of half a world of fans. Returned to become Jang Dong Chul, will strongly wish to have one woman’s love. But to have her love, compare to having it as Top Star is way too far. Madam Hong, I wish for you for the rest of your life that you will be able to self-question yourself to be better. Jang Dong Chul. P.S Look at me.
Ajumma looked at Song Jae Bin
Song Jae Bin: I love you.
Song Jae Bin then asked the kids to come over and whispered to them
Hu & Ji Min: Omma! Omma!
Ajumma was surprised at them calling her mother
Ji Min: There aren’t many people here. Get up. Quickly
Hu and Ji Min dragged Ajumma out and they played like a happy family of four
“Hong Sun Hee, If I have never met you, what will I have done”
