Ghost Song-Won?!
Hae-Ryun and U-Ram are discussing Si-Eun when Hae-Ryun notices that Si-Eun is not happy about her husband stopping by their apartment. U-Ram tells her that he stopped by because he was feeling sick and didn’t want to upset Si-Eun. Hae-Ryun is not happy about this and offers to clean up but Si-Eun rejects her offer.
Si-Eun heads home and tells her kids that Hae-Ryun is doing better now. She also brings up the idea of marriage, which U-Ra is not happy about. Hyang-Ki tries to talk him around, but U-Ram can’t help but feel bad for Hae-Ryun. ..
Hyang-Ki, the eldest of three children, says that their father has made his bed and now needs to sleep in it, given that it is his fault that their family has fallen apart completely. ..
After recovering from his palsy, Hae-Ryun goes to the department store and decides to buy an outfit “for his wife.” Seo-Ban and Si-Eun, who were also in the store at the same time, are unaware of what he’s doing. ..
Meanwhile, Pi-Young is still hung up over her kiss with creepy Dong-Ma. Apparently, she’s actually quite taken with him, and she takes this feeling with her when she meets her producer later on in the day. ..
Han Gyeong-A, the woman due to take over as Pi-Young is urged to take a year off. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have good news for her. He wants her to take a break as he needs to freshen things up on-air and believes ditching her is the best way of doing that. Han Gyeong-A is the woman due to take over as Pi-Young is urged to take a year off.
When Pi-Young catches up with the girls, they all reflect on the unfairness of it all. However, Hye-Ryung and Si-Eun both discuss how handsome Dong-Ma is, leaving Pi-Yung unusually (and understandably) quiet.
Pi-Young then heads home and speaks to Ji-A. She admits she doesn’t feel any love for Yu-Shin anymore and there’s no chance they will get together again. After kissing Dong-Ma it seems to have awoken something that’s lay dormant inside her for so long. Kissing and hugging Yu-Shin hasn’t actually brought this same feeling back. She hopes that Ji-A will maturely accept this.
Meanwhile, Moon-ho opens up to Hye-Ryung and suggests she get back with Sa-Hyun and become a happy couple again. She’s not exactly thrilled with the idea and points out that she has no feelings for him anymore. She does, however, have feelings for their baby and how he’s raised. For now, she drops off a present and heads home.
After leaving the building, Hye-Ryung passes Sa-Hyun who completely ignores her. Hye-Ryung scoffs, reassured herself that there’s no way she would get back with him. ..
Yu-Shin has been keeping A-Mi hidden from Ji-A, but this changes when the two meet at the bookstore. A-Mi sees them together and confronts Yu-Shin, revealing that she is also dating him.
As they sit together, A-Mi admits who she is and her ties to Yu-Shin. She even suggest they could be sisters but that only riles up Ji-A further. Eventually A-Mi admits that she’s in love with Yu-Shin. It’s here she realizes that her father has betrayed the family, so Ji-A tells her to pass the message on to Yu-Shin that she hopes he has a nice life. As she says the words, Ji-A stands up and leaves.
Moon-Ho is getting ready for Christmas, but Hae-Ryun comes by with a surprise: he wants the family to go back to how things were before. ..
Hae-Ryun begs for forgiveness from his kids and Si-Eun, promising to do whatever he can to gain her forgiveness. It’s incredibly selfish and unfair to the kids too, who sit in stunned silence. When Si-Eun heads out with Hae-Ryun for coffee, she breaks the news that she’s getting married to Seo-Ban.
Hye-Ryung heads over to Sa-Hyun’s place with a gift for the baby. She drops it off and but in doing so, the baby is fussing so Hye-Ryung heads in to tend to him. In doing so, she notices the ghost of Song-Won by the end of the bed. Wait, have we got ANOTHER ghost now?!
The Episode Review
Hae-Ryun is determined to win back Si-Eun, even if it means breaking up with her husband. She’s determined to make things right for them both and she’s not afraid to take whatever steps necessary. However, Si-Eun is not so easily brokenhearted and she doesn’t want to be without her husband either. They’re both struggling with their feelings for each other and it’s making things difficult for them both.
With Dong-Ma no longer in the running, it seems we’re actually leaning into the bizarre idea that Pi-Young is taken with him and enjoyed being stalked by him at the fairground. Well, each to their own I guess. ..
The writing on this show has been poor most of the way through, and the ending here seems to hint that we’re going to get another classic ghost story. Ga-bin, from the dead, has returned to haunt the family.
This episode was forgettable because there wasn’t a whole lot of new information or development.
