INTERN ANNOUNCER JUNG DA-JEONG, TALK OF THE TOWN
ANNOUNCER JUNG DA-JEONG HAS TWINS IN HIGH SCHOOL?
HUSBAND HONG, A REPAIRMAN
FORMER HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL MVP
BEST SERVICE!
JUNG DA-JEONG IN ARBITRATION FOR DIVORCE
JUNG DA-JEONG'S OTHER MAN IS A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT?
A 37-YEAR-OLD MAN BECAME 18?
WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO HER AND HER 18-YEAR-OLD HUSBAND?
You said you regretted it.
That you regretted meeting me and ruining your life.
So I let you go to live your own life.
I didn't hold you back. I let you go.
So why?
Why?
Why did you come back to me?
Do you know what went through my mind
whenever you were there for me?
"I miss you."
"I miss you, Dae-yeong."
I missed you too.
You look exactly like you did before.
Why didn't I realize?
To think of it,
a lot of things were weird.
I must be an idiot.
No.
I was wrong.
I should've been honest with you.
I'm sorry.
What? You thought I was having an affair?
Because
I didn't know why you wanted to leave me.
Is that why you were mean to me at first?
Yes. I'm sorry.
It's all right. I can see why you misunderstood.
I know now that there are some things you can't know unless you tell each other
even if you're married and living under the same roof.
Thank you for understanding.
Oh, and one more thing.
I'm just telling you in case you misunderstood.
There's nothing going on between Ji-hun and me.
Back then,
-I just-- -It must've been hard for you,
having to lie because of me.
Sorry.
It's okay. And thank you
for looking after us without our knowing.
There's the bus.
-Bye. -Okay.
Get home safely.
Hey.
Why did you get on?
Let's not
go home tonight.
What?
That was too fast.
Come on.
Hey, Mom. Are you just getting home now?
What? Yes.
I was meeting someone, and it ran a little late.
It didn't run just a little late.
Right.
It's okay. You need to take time for yourself to relieve stress.
What?
Give me a moment. I'll make you breakfast.
No, it's okay. You must be tired. Get some rest.
I'm fine. Give me just a moment.
I used to be fine after staying up all night.
I'm too old for this.
Hey, what's up?
I just wanted to hear your voice.
What?
It hasn't been that long.
Whom is she talking to this early?
Si-a!
-Heading to class? -Yes.
Let's go together.
What if someone sees us?
Let's keep it a secret at school.
I don't care if anyone finds out.
Does it matter for you?
No, not really.
What is it?
What's wrong?
Si-a, you came early today.
Don't pick a fight with me already.
I'm praising you.
You haven't been late recently. Good girl.
Si-u, you did it!
-Great job, Si-a! -You won!
Yes! I won!
You did great!
Who came first?
Whatever.
Man. What am I thinking?
Look at our lucky bracelets.
Feel free to look.
It's pretty.
Do you take credit cards?
Sorry, we only take cash.
-Really? -Yes.
-I'll come back next time. -Sure.
Hey, aren't you Ye Ji-hun?
I'm a fan. May I get an autograph?
Sure.
In exchange, will you do me a favor?
Ms. Jung Da-jeong!
Yes? Hi.
I'm a fan. Please take this.
What's this?
A present. Goodbye.
Hey, wait.
I was going to get it for Si-a.
I'll have to keep it.
By any chance, do you remember the accident
on Christmas?
Why did you do that?
I'm sorry.
JOB POSTING: ANNOUNCER, REPORTER, SHOW HOST
Hey, Dae-yeong.
What were you up to?
I was looking at job postings.
Job postings?
Yes, I'm going to apply for everything I can.
Gosh, all kinds of TV stations will line up to have you.
What about you? What were you up to?
I'm on my way home after practice.
You had practice today too?
You were up all night. Are you okay?
Of course, I am.
It must be great to be young.
I woke up after sunset.
As long as you slept well.
Da-jeong.
Are you free tomorrow?
Tomorrow?
Let's see. I am. Why?
Let's go on a date.
A date?
Yes. Is there anything you want to do?
Yes, there is.
What's going on? Why did you want to see us together?
Right? You said you had something to tell us.
Deok-jin.
You're my friend, and U-yeong is your son.
So I tried to stop myself.
But
I can't anymore.
What?
I finally realized what my feelings are.
I really like
U-yeong.
-What? -What?
He'll be legal soon.
In Hollywood, an 18-year age difference is nothing.
So Deok-jin.
Give us your blessing.
Well.
I'm in no position to stop you.
I can't take this anymore.
Da-jeong, he's actually Dae-yeong.
So you can't do this!
What are you talking about?
Deok-jin, then I take that as a yes.
U-yeong and I will start dating today.
Ae-rin, accept it.
Please excuse us.
Hey. Wait!
Mr. Ko doesn't have any friends who are sane.
I might just quit my job.
What's wrong with…
What just…
It was messed up that you lied to me,
but thank you for helping Dae-yeong out all this time.
What does she mean?
What?
Did they just pull a prank on us?
Man, those punks.
We have really great friends.
We do.
Hey, you're wearing…
Yes, you're right. It's the necklace you gave me.
It's pretty.
Where are we going?
Right, one second.
Let's see.
What? Where did you get the car?
I borrowed it from Deok-jin.
I wanted to go somewhere nice for our date.
You can't drive. You're a student right now.
Come on. I'm the expert driver Hong Dae-yeong.
You still can't.
What if you get into an accident? You don't have a license.
Really? Then what should we do?
I had everything planned.
Well, then let me drive just for today.
I've been driving for ten years accident-free.
Da-jeong, aren't you going a little too fast?
Why? I'm under the speed limit.
Wait.
You don't trust me?
It's not that I don't.
I've never seen you drive before.
I used to drive when I had to film out of town.
Really?
What is it?
Nothing.
It's interesting to see you drive.
It's awkward.
Look who's talking.
It's fun to be driving again.
I can't believe I got to drive a sports car.
But Da-jeong, you should probably slow down a bit…
Da-jeong!
It's really nice here.
How did you find this place?
-Do you like it? -Yes.
It's pretty and the air is fresh.
I love it.
That's a relief. I stayed up all night researching.
-Really? -Yes.
Just wait.
I have the whole day planned out.
Wait. Stand right there.
One, two, three.
You look pretty.
There are so many flowers.
Look at that.
Stand there.
Like an angel.
Here we go. One, two, three.
Da-jeong, stand right there.
Give it to me. I'll take your picture this time.
-It's okay. -No, it's not.
We came all this way. You should take a picture too.
Give it to me.
Then let's take one together.
-Together? -Yes.
All right. I'll take it now.
One, two, three.
It's fun hanging out and taking pictures again.
We did that on our first date too.
We had so much fun at Gyeongbokgung Palace.
You remember that?
Of course.
It was my first date with my first love. How could I forget?
But I heard I wasn't your first love.
What? Who said that?
I heard Si-a say that at school.
I see.
Why did I always think I was your first love?
So who was he?
Come on. It's all in the past.
My first love isn't important.
It's important to me.
Why can't you tell me?
Wait, is it someone I know?
What is this? Are you jealous?
Of course, I am.
What?
Fine.
My first love was…
Hey, the sun is setting.
I haven't played enough.
Why won't you tell me?
Tell me!
Who was it?
PLEASE START YOUR ENGINE ONCE EVERY 30 MINUTES
Here.
Why are you smiling?
Being at a theater reminded me
of how you got angry at me.
I did? Why?
You got really mad because I went to watch a movie
with Il-gwon.
I wanted you to feel better, so I said…
So you said what?
What?
What did you say to me?
Oh.
Well… I said…
"I love you."
-What? -That's what you said.
I did.
-What? -Nothing.
That bothered me.
Even if it's not me,
that happiness will definitely come.
Is that why you're here, to tell me that?
The things you couldn't forget
were what you regretted about.
This is Si-a's favorite. Try some.
Really?
It's good.
-Is it? -Yes.
When was our last date?
I'm not sure.
It was too long ago to remember.
We must've been way too busy.
You're right. It's not all bad, though.
There's a lot that we never did, so there's a lot to get excited about
Then let's do all the things we didn't do when we were young.
Okay.
Hey. Isn't that Jung Da-jeong?
I think so.
-Who's that guy with her? -Exactly.
Excuse me, are you the announcer Jung Da-jeong?
Yes.
I'm a fan.
You said you had a son in high school.
You must have a great relationship with him.
Oh, he's her son.
No wonder.
Yes.
Thank you.
Enjoy.
You must be tired.
Not at all.
I had a lot of fun today.
What if someone sees us?
Right.
Sorry.
Bye.
I really hate that guy.
He likes you.
And you like him too.
You two.
You're right.
Ji-ho and I are going out.
What?
Please don't tell other kids that we're going out. Okay?
Wait, so you two are really dating?
Yes.
You're the only one who knows.
Since we're friends.
Right, yes. I'm your friend.
Will you keep our secret?
Okay, then. Bye.
Hello?
This is Serim High School.
Is this Hong Si-a's father, Mr. Hong Dae-yeong?
Yes, this is he.
What is it?
Hello?
Please speak.
What was that?
Wait, this is U-yeong's phone.
This is
hard to believe.
I'm sorry you had to find out, Ji-ho.
I'm embarrassed.
Don't say that. I'm the one who's sorry.
I had no idea and was rude to you.
No, you were never rude to me.
I'm sorry.
It's all right. Goodness. Sit down.
Anyway, Ji-ho.
How did you know?
We have a video of our elementary school sports day at home.
I came across it and watched it,
and I saw you.
I see.
I was still unsure,
but I saw you two hugging earlier.
Right.
I blocked Si-a so that she wouldn't see,
but you almost got caught.
Right.
Wait, Ji-ho.
That means you were out with her until this late?
Well, today was our first date.
Is that so?
Tell me if you need money.
I'll treat you for keeping my secret.
Thank you.
But Mr. Hong.
Yes, what is it?
Is it impossible for you to go back to how you looked?
Wasn't that delicious?
You seemed to like it.
Hey, Si-a. Let's take another lap.
Why?
I don't want to say goodbye.
Fine.
It was so good.
Dad, aren't you tired? I'll give you a massage at home.
Okay. Thanks.
Let's tell Mom too.
What's wrong?
How nice.
I've always been mean to my dad.
I couldn't be bothered and always ignored his calls
and got annoyed when I was with him.
Last time when he bought me lunch,
I called out a friend to avoid his nagging.
If I had known it would be this hard to see him again,
I would've been better.
Si-a is…
waiting for you.
Why is she calling me?
Hey, what's up?
What? The police station?
So you don't have anything else?
-No? -I don't.
You should tell me now.
There's nothing else.
I'm Chu Ae-rin, an attorney from Taebaek.
What's going on?
Ae-rin, this is so unfair.
She continuously posted malicious comments about online content creators.
They got together and reported her.
Malicious comments?
I didn't mean it to be malicious.
They just overreacted.
Please help me.
May I see the complaint and evidence?
Sure.
Here.
COMMENTS BY BLACK NAILS
-This many? -They must've been furious.
They found all of her user IDs and IP addresses
and put everything together.
BLACK NAILS I WENT TO HIGH SCHOOL…
I went to high school with Jung Da-jeong,
and she got pregnant back in high school.
-What is this? -What?
This is…
You've always been especially mean to Da-jeong.
Why is that?
Because I always hated her!
And you and I were best friends before she showed up.
We wouldn't have grown apart if it hadn't been for her.
After that, I was going to forgive her
since it looked like she got punished and lived a tough life.
Then she became an announcer and came out on TV,
pretending she's kind and all that. I couldn't stand it.
I wanted everyone to know how greedy and selfish she is.
-The word "selfish" fits you better. -What?
I hold to this principle whenever I defend my clients.
"I will embrace even garbage with my heart."
But I can't embrace someone who insults my friend.
Go find another lawyer.
You're on your own.
Hey! Why do you always take her side?
I'm your friend too!
Do you remember the time when girls from the school next door came?
-You'd better behave. -I'm sorry, I…
-Hand it over, okay? -Hey.
-Let go. -Jin-yeong.
-Hey. -What are you looking at?
-Shit. -We still need to talk.
-Let me go. -I'm talking to you.
Back then--
I don't call someone
who ignores me when I'm in trouble, a "friend."
That's all in the past.
Yes, it's all in the past.
Both that case,
and this one.
Don't go around telling others that I'm your friend.
I'll sue you for spreading false information.
Just you wait.
All right. Settle down.
Congratulations on winning the semifinals.
Get a good rest today,
-and see you tomorrow. -Yes, sir!
-Great job today. -Thank you!
U-yeong, Si-u. I need to see you.
Yes, sir.
The scout from Hanguk University said you two were very impressive.
If we win the championship, Hanguk University will recruit you two.
-Do your best. -Yes, Coach.
-Great job.
-Great work. -Thank you.
Hey. Nice. You did great.
That's the university you wanted to get into.
This is great, Si-u.
Let's go to Hanguk together.
Oh.
U-yeong, you should go. I need to make a call.
-Okay, then. -Okay.
MY SON
Hey, Si-u.
Dad, next Saturday is the championship. Can you come?
Oh, I'd love to go, but--
Oh, right. You've been busy lately.
It's okay if you can't make it.
Bye.
I…
Hey, you're still here.
I thought we could go together.
Okay.
You don't look very happy.
To be honest,
I first wanted to play basketball because of my dad.
Oh, really?
Yes.
My dad was the ace of Serim's basketball team,
but he stopped playing after I was born.
So I wanted to make his dream come true,
but I thought he'd be disappointed if I wasn't good.
That's why I pretended like I wasn't interested.
I didn't know you thought that.
I wanted to tell him after I became good.
That's why I called him first
when I made the team.
And I wanted him to see me play in the championship,
so I tried really hard.
But he can't come this time.
My dad can't come either. He's too busy.
Why do you look sad after winning?
Let's go to an internet cafe and vent.
-Me too? -Yes, you too.
-No? -Yes, I want to go.
You're going, right?
Oh, I have something to do.
You go have fun.
Stop pretending like you're busy. Let's go.
Come on.
You did very well today.
Thanks for filling in last-minute.
Don't mention it.
Call me whenever you're in need.
I have a lot of time on my hands now.
All right. I'll call you when we have something.
-Okay. Do give me a call. -Sure.
-Goodbye, sir -Bye.
Nam Tae-hui hits the fourth home run of the season.
But didn't Ye Ji-hun give him a home run too easily?
It's not just the last pitch. His pitches have been very shaky.
He's giving up hits way too easily.
It's a shame.
I'm worried something might have happened to him.
Isn't this enough to say he's in a slump?
Ye Ji-hun rarely falls into slumps.
-I suspect an injury. -An injury?
-Are you okay? -His team never mentioned an injury.
-Some players… -Oh, I'm fine.
-keep it a secret to keep playing. -Then let's grab some coffee.
It's nice to see you at the stadium.
Are you here for an interview?
No, I came to look for a job.
I got fired.
You were fired?
Yes.
I guess I wasn't good enough to be hired permanently.
What do you mean?
You made so many programs popular!
Man, seriously.
They need to fail without you to learn.
Everyone at the station is an idiot!
Ji-hun.
Someone might hear you.
Let them.
I'm going to start praying they go under.
Are you all right?
People said you might be injured.
Oh.
I'm not injured.
Then…
I wanted to be a good dad for Seo-yeon.
But it seems like
I only hurt her.
-So? -Let's go to the pool.
-Okay! -Do you want to go?
Yes.
Seo-yeon.
Do you miss Mommy?
We're not open yet.
Please meet Seo-yeon just once.
I don't want to. She doesn't know anything about me anyway.
She does.
She went
to the hospital where you used to work to meet you.
-What? -She really wants to meet you.
Please meet her just this once.
Seo-yeon, are you excited to meet Mommy?
Yes, I am.
-Mommy? -That's right.
I'm your mom.
But I've forgotten all about you long ago.
As far as I'm concerned, I never had a daughter.
What?
What are you doing?
Don't you get it?
Seo-yeon, stop crying.
This is just what your mom is like.
So don't miss me or come to see me ever again.
I won't meet you even if you come.
Got that?
Mommy…
Why did you do that to her?
I wanted her to hate me.
Why must she hate you?
She's your daughter.
My daughter? I had her as an accident when I was young.
I didn't know any better back then.
She's not my responsibility.
I'm sorry, Seo-yeon.
It's okay.
The more I try,
the more I mess everything up.
You are not messing it up.
But what do you think
about remaining as an uncle to her?
As an uncle?
Just as nobody else can be your brother to you,
I'm sure he's the only dad for Seo-yeon.
I think it might be better if you let her keep it that way.
Seo-yeon.
Come to Daddy.
You're right.
I was trying to make Seo-yeon forget someone who's dear to her.
You heard from Si-a, right?
That I was looking for your ex-husband.
Oh, yes.
You still haven't gotten over him,
so I thought you'd be troubled if I brought it up.
That's why I hesitated.
But I should tell you now.
You know that my brother passed away in a car accident, right?
Yes.
That day,
Seo-yeon was in his car too.
Seo-yeon, we'll have to spend this Christmas without Uncle Ji-hun.
Really? But I miss him.
Seo-yeon, then let's call him now.
Okay!
All right. One second.
Someone dozed off behind the wheel
and hit the two of them.
Your phone is off.
Ji-hun, make sure you eat well in the U.S.
Don't strain yourself while training.
Merry Christmas.
What the heck?
-Are you all right? -Yes.
BABY ON BOARD
Seo-yeon…
Hey!
Excuse me! Please come help!
Both my brother and Seo-yeon were in danger.
But…
Thank you.
Give me a moment.
He needs help over here!
Seo-yeon…
Are you okay?
-Hey! -Someone call an ambulance.
So why did you get into the accident?
What?
Well…
Then that accident was when your brother…
That's right.
I've always wanted to meet Mr. Hong.
Excuse me.
Is his daughter okay?
Yes, she's fine.
Thank goodness.
Wait, are you the man who saved the little girl?
Yes.
I see.
His family is on his way from overseas.
He'd like to meet you and show his gratitude.
-Please give me your number. -It's all right.
I didn't do it for money.
I just thought of my daughter.
I see.
Goodbye, then.
URIM HIGH SCHOOL ALUMNI OUR DEEPEST CONDOLENCES
Seo-yeon.
He didn't want the police to share his identity,
and he didn't want to be rewarded.
I still thought I should thank him and show my gratitude,
so I went out of my way to call him.
I'm sorry.
I should have saved your brother too.
It's not your fault, Mr. Hong.
You risked your life to save Seo-yeon.
So I wanted to repay you for your kindness.
It's all right. I didn't do it for any reward.
I just…
thought of my daughter.
He said he did it because he thought of his daughter,
and he said the same thing
when I called him recently.
Your husband is
a good man.
You're right.
He's a good man.
To be honest,
if it were anyone else,
I wouldn't have given up on you.
But if it's your husband,
I can't compete.
I hope
you two will be happy.
Do you think it'll be too hard for us to remain friends?
Weren't we friends already?
I thought you were a good friend, Ji-hun.
ANNOUNCERS' BOARD JUNG DA-JEONG'S SHOCKING…
JUNG DA-JEONG'S SHOCKING VIDEO
POST
The top ten moments when Korea went wild.
This is number one.
-Welcome home. -Hey, Si-u.
Did you do well on your game?
Of course! We won.
Really? That's so great.
And Mom, I got scouted by Hanguk University.
They'll take me for sure if we win the championship.
Goodness.
That's great news, my son.
And Mom, U-yeong received the offer too.
I see. Really?
Yes.
But he can't go.
Why not?
He might have to leave.
But he won't tell me when and where he's going.
Everyone went wild back during the 2002 World Cup.
What were you doing?
-Go, Korea! -Go, Korea!
DEOKSAN HILL
What's wrong with you?
Sir, just this once. Please.
Do you think I'm that easy?
How can I trust someone who didn't even go to college? No.
Sir…
He scores!
Korea moves onto the semifinals!
History was made!
-Go, Korea! -Go!
We can do this!
-Victory! -Go, Korea!
-Go, Korea!
-We will win! -We can do this!
-Go, Korea! -Go, Korea!
Hey, where are you?
Hey.
Congratulations.
You went back to your glory days.
What?
Si-u told me.
He said you were recruited by Hanguk University.
Right.
If you win the championship,
you'll be able to make
your unfulfilled dream come true.
Da-jeong.
I will do
whatever it takes to find a way to go back.
But your dream.
You and our kids are more important to me than my dream.
So?
You'll give up on your dream again?
-I'm not saying I'll give up. -Then what?
Do you know how anxious I was in case you'd do this?
Da-jeong.
I can't do this.
Let's end our relationship for good.
Don't say things you don't mean.
No.
This is why
I wanted to see you.
Our kids are all grown up,
and I can support them alone.
So you can go live your life.
You're a good guy.
You deserve this chance.
Da-jeong.
And please
stay as a friend…
to our kids.
But we can…
each live our own life.
Wait, Da-jeong.
I…
I want to be by your side.
Think about how I ruined your life.
You know,
to be honest,
I was heartbroken…
when I saw you on the court.
When I saw how happy you looked playing basketball,
I wondered how life would've been
if I hadn't told you
I was pregnant that day 18 years ago.
I kept thinking about that,
regretting what I did.
You regretted it too.
Didn't you?
Once is enough for regretting
meeting me.
You've gone through this already.
Don't do it again.
Please give me a chance.
No.
This is your chance.
Don't let your chance
go to waste,
U-yeong.
Let's go back,
Dae-yeong.
Please.
Let's go back to my old self.
I want to go back!
Why can't I go back? Why not?
Please…
Hi, Mom.
What's wrong with your voice? Is something wrong?
No, nothing is wrong.
Da-jeong,
move back in with the kids if things are too tough.
No, Dae-yeong is good to me.
I'm fine.
That summer when everyone went wild,
the 20-year-old you cried in sorrow.
Your miserable life and the cold-hearted people
made you cry.
I wanted to comfort you and tell you that you didn't have to try too hard.
Da-jeong.
But you tried your best to smile.
Why did you wait? You must be tired.
And I didn't want to make you cry.
Are you all right?
Oh, this? It's nothing.
It's just a scratch.
Everyone else turned their back on us,
but I had faith in you.
We were full of cuts and bruises,
but we were…
each other's brightest star.
