Ji-ho packs her belongings, and Se-hee arrives. Marriage is something that makes you take another look back even if you hate the other. Mom’s beautiful words, that families are gifts, felt like they were scolding me. Mom just replies, “Bullshit.” Pwahaha! She yells at Ji-ho to keep her divorce a secret from her dad for now, and curses her under her breath as she walks away.Īs Ji-ho leaves the hospital, she narrates, “It hurt. She says she wants to fill her star pocket with sparkly things, and smiles up at her mother. Using Mom’s metaphor, Ji-ho says that she’s getting divorced so she won’t lose her star. Mom explains that everyone experiences moments that sparkle, and when that happens, it’s important to capture them and save them in your star pocket to help you through the tough times. Mom advises Ji-ho to take care of her “star pocket,” and Ji-ho gives her a quizzical look. Once she realized that, she decided it is was best to just live with him. But the day Mom decided to get a divorce, she looked at Dad sleeping and realized that if she broke up with him when they were dating, she would have missed him all her life. Though they married for love, it didn’t seem to be enough to weather the hardships they faced later on, since they considered separating. Mom smiles, surprised that she still remembers such an old memory, and tells her that both sets of parents disapproved of their marriage. Ji-ho asks why Mom never divorced Dad back when she was younger, recalling a time when Mom took her and Ji-seok to her parents’ house. And besides, she already knows that the decision must have been difficult for Ji-ho, as will be the consequences afterwards. Ji-ho asks why Mom isn’t saying anything, but Mom says there isn’t anything to say since Ji-ho never changes her mind once she’s decided something. Mom and Ji-ho coo over the newborn baby, agreeing that this is the greatest gift in life, and Ji-ho suddenly drops the truth to Mom: She’s getting divorced. Dad wipes away a few tears, and behind them, Ji-seok audibly sobs on the floor. She rushes to the hospital, and soon, the family welcomes their newest member. Ji-ho watches drunk Se-hee sleep and traces his profile in the air before getting a call from Mom. Now it’s time to say farewell to these lovable characters and hope for the best for each one of them.Įpisode 16: “Because this life is our first” At times, the relationships portrayed have caused gnashing of teeth in addition to joyous uproar, and as much as this show has been a romantic comedy, it’s also crossed genre boundaries and been so much more.
