“Before raising her food, your mother raised the two of them together. Maybe I should create an opportunity for them to meet later. Since she mentioned running a business in Jeju Island, we could go down and take a look…”
Sniff. Somewhere, a sound of sniffing echoed. Mrs. Ma, who had stopped speaking, turned her head towards the source of the sound.
Se-kyung was unexpectedly teary-eyed. It felt as if someone had pinched her nose. Perhaps Mrs. Ma would dislike hearing about her family history.
She waited, her eyes filled with tears. The momentary silence felt like an eternity.

After having lunch and chatting with Mother, Se-kyung’s eyes seemed slightly distant as if she had heard something unsettling during the day. However, her expression looked better than the last time Mrs. Ma visited.
“What are you doing out there? Don’t just stand there, come in quickly,” Mrs. Ma scolded her son, who was standing in the doorway.
Tae-jo’s eyebrows twitched. Se-kyung? It was the second time he had seen her, and since then, her address had changed.
“What’s going on? Anything happen during the day? Your mother has changed how she addresses Se-kyung.”
“She probably greeted her. What’s wrong with calling the child who will be my daughter-in-law comfortably? I call Ye-ryeong by her name too.”
“It’s not that, but…”
Tae-jo looked at Se-kyung as if he couldn’t express something to his mother. Later, Mrs. Ma took Tae-jo to the dining room, promising to talk later.

“That guy who skips the monthly family meal because he’s too busy suddenly rushes over when Se-kyung is here.”
“That’s right. Saying he’s busy is just an excuse.”
Mrs. Ma’s nagging was echoed by Ye-ryeong. Tae-jo, feeling like a disobedient child, furrowed his brow.
When Mrs. Hong handed a bowl of fluffy rice to the harassed Tae-jo, he spoke to Se-kyung in front of him.
“Wanna eat together?”
“I ate earlier.”
Se-kyung pushed the side dishes toward Tae-jo. With a quick “Eat quickly,” he lifted the chopsticks.
“Sit in front. I’ll finish quickly and…”
“Se-kyung, come over here.”
“Yes.”

Immediately responding to Mrs. Ma’s call, Se-kyung turned her body. Tae-jo, left alone, watched Se-kyung leaving strangely captivated.
There are many people, yet why do I feel so lonely?
“…”
Tae-jo, sitting alone at the dining table, began to eat his meal in loneliness.
The hands of the two people returning home were full of luggage. Gifts from Mrs. Ma, including clothes and enough side dishes for a week.
As soon as Se-kyung returned to Tae-jo’s house, she organized the side dishes given by Mrs. Ma in the refrigerator. Late in taking a shower and coming out to the living room, she saw Tae-jo working with a tablet.
“Are you busy?”
Se-kyung leaned over behind him, poking her head out.
“If you’re busy, I’ll go to bed first.”
“You just need to check a few documents.”

So, sit next to me. Tae-jo tapped the seat next to him.
“What happened today?”
Tae-jo prodded Se-kyung’s eyes. Sensing what he was asking, Se-kyung subtly pursed her lips.
“Your mother thanked me.”
“What did she say?”
“She said my mom, who raised a child alone, must have gone through a lot and that she’s an amazing person.”
Se-kyung, kneeling, hugged her legs with both arms.
“Actually, I was worried when your mother asked about my family. She said Ye-ryeong’s family is in the legal field. Our family doesn’t have such an impressive background, so I was worried she might be disappointed that our house won’t be of any help to you.”

Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
