(109th class at the foreigner school)
This is My Neighbor, Charles
where we meet foreigners living in Korea.
How was your week? It's nice to see you.
It was great.
Many spring flower festivals are going on
these days throughout the country.
I feel very uneasy.
I feel like going on a holiday.
Don't you feel like going somewhere
where there's a lot of sunlight?
And it feels like you will meet someone
and something will happen. Sayuri!
I feel very excited.
- Don't go anywhere. / - I won't go.
But I still want to go to Jeju-do.
I don't want to go to another country but Jeju-do.
Today's guest is from a country
where flowers bloom around this time of the year.
- Where? / - Are you excited to meet her?
- Come on in. / - Come on in.
(Excited)
So pretty.
(Welcome to My Neighbor, Charles)
- Beautiful. / - Beautiful girl.
A flower just walked in.
Hello, I'm Bang Jeongcheol from Busan.
I'm Antien's husband.
Hello, I'm Antien.
I'm from the Netherlands.
Oh, you're from the Netherlands.
How did the two of you meet?
Before going to the army,
I wanted to travel around the world
so I went to Europe.
My friend in Germany introduced her
so we met there and I fell in love at first sight.
She's really pretty so I understand that
but what is it about the husband that she liked...
- Sayuri! / - He's cute.
But what kind of charm does he have?
He was very sweet to me.
Back in the day, he was much more handsome.
He gained a lot of weight recently.
He's a very good man.
He always gives me so much attention
and we traveled around the Netherlands
and go to places...
It seems like you rushed your marriage.
Was there a reason?
- Because of our baby. / - Oh, she got pregnant?
I thought she was very young.
When you had the baby, you were...
When I was 20.
She had her baby when she was 20 years old.
I felt bad because it wasn't planned
and I didn't even finish my school yet at the time.
I was very focused in school because I really liked it
and I really wanted to be a flight attendant.
But I'm happy raising my baby with him.
It's either way but he's very good to me
and he's always by my side so I'm happy.
It isn't easy to raise a child
in an unfamiliar Asian country
when she's only 21 years old.
I'm curious about her life.
She doesn't even know Korean.
They are newbie parents so they must have difficulties.
Let's take a look at their life in Korea right now.
(My Neighbor, Charles)
(Lovey-dovey but immature)
(Antien's newlywed house)
Wake up.
I want to sleep more.
Look at your body.
Look.
This shouldn't be here.
There's nothing.
It's just your face and then your neck.
It should look like this.
How fat have you gotten?
I gained weight on purpose, okay?
How can you purposely gain weight?
I'm sensitive to cold so I need some fat.
You gained 20kg in just 2 years.
I have pictures of you.
- Who is that? / - The real you.
That's not me.
Oh, wow. Is that really him?
He doesn't exist anymore.
He's under this body.
Somewhere under this fat.
They met through a friend
when Jeongcheol came to Europe for a trip.
After dating across the world,
now they are newbie parents
with a beautiful son.
("O" Logistics Center, Yangsan, Gyeongsangnam-do)
Jeongcheol has been working at
a logistics center after coming to Korea.
He's only 27 years old but now that he's a head
of a family so he feels a bit pressured these days.
(Mommy!)
What's wrong, Noel?
(Mommy!)
Oh, goodness.
(I'll help you)
You are going to do it?
This is how you do it.
Good job, Noel.
Who came so early in the morning?
(Mommy, who is it?)
Noel.
Your house stinks every time I come here.
Noel.
Did you eat? Give me a kiss.
It's the mother-in-law who adores her grandson.
I brought porridge.
- Porridge? / - Yes.
Antien!
What is it?
Why didn't you do the dishes?
You should do this at least.
You should clean this up.
I will do it for you now
but you do it in the evening.
- Okay? / - Okay.
The frustrated mother-in-law
does the chores herself.
She's busy taking care of her daughter-in-law
these days.
Did you clean over there?
Did you clean this up?
She checks out the closet this time.
It looks like Antien isn't too confident.
(Chaos)
What a mess.
You should organize these.
You didn't clean up here.
- Later. / - Later?
- Yes. / - Promise?
- Promise. / - Okay.
They are so clumsy. They are not ready yet.
My son is 27 years old
but that's still young.
And also he's the youngest child in the family.
Antien is also 21 years old. She's still a baby.
(Military Manpower Administration, Suyeong, Busan)
But there is a big hurdle
waiting for the couple.
Jeongcheol has to enter the army.
How may I help you?
I'm here for consultation.
It hasn't been long since you came back
so it will take about 6 to 7 months.
My baby was born on April 5th last year.
Was your child born in Korea?
No, he was born in the Netherlands.
Then you need a birth certificate as well.
Are you possible to get that from that country?
Yes, I'm in the process of getting
the necessary documents right now.
There is the full-time system.
You could be chosen as
a full-time soldier in a reserve.
He lived in the U.S. since he was in middle school.
He went on a trip before going to the army
and met Antien.
I lived in the U.S. for over 10 years.
I gave up the green card
to live in Korea.
So I decided to serve in the army
and came to Korea.
(Haeundae, Busan)
It's Jeongcheol's day off.
The couple has come to a baby fair.
She seems very excited already.
What about that? I think it's for showering.
No?
(Nope)
$5.
That's not that expensive.
It's too small for $5.
These two are $20. It's a special price.
This is kind of cute.
Let's look around a little more.
We'll look around and come back.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
It seems like Antien likes it.
We'll look around and come back.
We'll look around and come back.
We'll look around and come back.
We'll look around and come back.
But this one is kind of cheap. He needs this anyway.
A puzzle. At least one puzzle.
These puzzles that make sounds are $18.
How much is this one?
- That's $3.5 for one. / - $3.5?
It sounds okay.
Just this?
What about we buy both?
No, just one.
Let's buy these two. It's not too much.
We'll take these two.
- I'll pack them separately. / - Okay.
They finally bought something.
And now we're going to find something else.
Just one clothes.
Just a top and a pair of pants.
He already has enough.
He doesn't have enough.
- Yes, he does. / - He doesn't have enough.
He used to wear European size 74
but now he wears European size 82.
That's about size 90 in Korea.
He doesn't want to hear you.
(Mom, dad, don't fight)
If I enter the army
we have no source of income.
So I want to save up before going to the army.
I understand of course.
He makes money and he wants to save it up.
But Noel really needs clothes
and I really wanted to buy it.
I don't want him to look cranky
when we buy something and just be happy about it.
That night.
Jeong.
Antien, why are you calling Jeongcheol?
(Ta-da)
What is that?
Face masks.
The funny ones. Shrek and panda.
- Do I look like Shrek? / - Yes.
No, actually both. You also look like a panda.
I'm more like a panda because
I have bags under my eyes.
(What are you doing?)
Almost perfect.
Your face is too big.
It looks great on him.
No!
Noel.
Oh, he must be scared!
(Where's daddy?)
They can't be stopped.
(Get my daddy back)
What if he gets a nightmare?
It's so cold!
(Roar)
(Antien fools around too)
Who's that?
What is that on your face?
What are you doing?
Is that a face mask?
Yes.
I was wondering who they are.
They are Antien's family in the Netherlands.
Hello, father.
Antien's father is happy to
see them having fun.
It's your grandpa.
Hello. You are great at clapping!
How are you?
She's asking if you are doing okay.
Antien was raised in a happy family
with 8 other siblings.
Before coming to Korea,
she was studying to become a flight attendant.
I felt very sad to give it up
because I was doing so well and I had good grades.
In Korea, there's something new as well.
I will continue to study
and now I'm going to focus on other things
like learning a new language like Korean
which is also very useful to become a flight attendant.
I do like Korea. I really like the culture and stuff.
(I can't live without mom)
(Mother-in-law's house)
The mother-in-law is taking
care of Noel instead of Antien.
Noel.
Let's go to bed.
Mommy!
It's to give some free time to Antien.
- How are you? / - Good.
It hasn't been long since
she came to Korea
and I think she needs some time on her own.
I'm taking care of the baby
so she can take a nap,
clean up the house and small little things
and have her own study time.
That's not all.
She always takes her daughter-in-law
whenever she goes out.
- Swing? / - Swim?
- Playing on a swing? / - Swimming?
A swimming pool for babies?
- You can go there next time. / -Yes.
I think she's saying she wants to go to a swimming pool.
Go with your husband. I don't know where it is.
Swig? Swing?
Oh, I see.
Let's go ride on a swing.
They finally understood each other.
(Adults have a hard life)
Antien, you stay here.
No, mom.
What if he falls?
He's going down.
It's impossible, mom.
You're a fool.
Noel.
Finally, they place Noel on a swing.
Noel, come down.
Let's go now.
Let's go home.
(No, no)
He's got a cold. This is trouble.
(Antien lets him ride on the swing)
Antien, come on out.
He will catch a cold.
He will catch a cold. Let's stop.
I think he wants to ride on it more.
It's too cold.
It's too cold for the baby.
I don't think he wants to go.
Mom.
No, it's too cold for the baby.
- I think he wants to go again. / - No, it's too cold.
Mom, he's sad.
It's okay.
It's okay.
(They keep arguing)
(A present for mommy)
- Thank you, Noel. / - Thank you.
He's caught a cold.
Oh, no. Look. This is trouble.
You have to take him to the hospital.
- Hospital? / - Yes.
- Why? / - He has a cold.
- You don't know? / - I don't know.
- Hold on. / - Okay.
Noel isn't sick.
- He's sick. / - No.
- He's sick. / - No.
- You stop being so stubborn. / - He isn't sick.
Noel has a cold.
He has a cold.
Hold on.
Antien has a lot to say
but she can't speak Korean.
Mom.
Injection.
Why?
Because he's sick.
He's not sick.
He has a runny nose.
He can take medicine if he's sick.
You have to take care of it in the beginning.
We can't communicate.
- Alright. Fine. / - Mom.
(They end up not going to the hospital)
She's very stubborn.
If we were able to communicate
she wouldn't have seemed so stubborn.
But since we can't understand each other
it can seem like that but she still is a bit stubborn.
I think she's a little overprotective.
I understand that it's for the baby
and we need to be careful.
But if you are always overprotective
then the baby can't discover the world.
(Dragging)
It's okay.
It's not okay. Be more gentle.
He smashed onto the floor.
I didn't push him on the ground.
Don't touch this part with your hand.
It's okay.
This is so frustrating.
That night.
- Is he ready? / - Yes, he's ready.
Noel, let's go to bed.
Oh, are you trying to put him to sleep?
- Okay. / - Yes.
Antien and Jeongcheol
take turns to comfort Noel.
Good night.
You don't sleep together with Noel?
Noel, let's go to bed.
Just come in.
He never tries to sleep.
In the Netherlands, babies sleep separately.
But still, they must feel bad.
(Trying to make the baby sleep by himself)
(Beep)
- Who is it? / - Hello.
What are you guys doing right now?
We are trying to put the baby to sleep.
I told you not to do that and look at you!
This is crazy.
Hey!
He always sleep like this.
That's nonsense! You'll ruin his personality!
She's very angry.
(Comforting)
Take the doll and calm down.
Don't take it.
Goodness.
He will develop a foul temper!
- He was fine until now. / - He wasn't.
You should make it a habit
for the baby to sleep alone.
- Antien. / - Yes.
You can do that in the Netherlands
but follow Korean culture in Korea.
You are the bad guy!
You are in it together.
(I have a headache)
Babies should sleep in comfort.
But crying until he falls into sleep...
When I see that I feel so bad that
I cry with him.
I don't think that's a good way.
(So frustrating)
(Sunday morning)
(Amazing reflexes to light)
Jeongcheol hides under the blanket
as soon as the light is on.
Noel is already having breakfast.
(Peeking)
I'm going to put on makeup. You get ready, okay?
(Shaking)
I'm tired.
I'm always at home.
I'm always home alone all week.
You come home at 7.
It's too cold.
Stop it.
Can you turn the boiler on for the shower?
(At a loss for words)
I don't like it. I don't want a lazy husband.
I want him to be active and act his age.
He's a young man and I don't think
a young man should always be in his blanket.
I work. Sunday is my only day off.
It's your day off but you should also think of me.
I think I have bad liver.
I'm always tired. Even now.
(It's because of the liver)
(Busan Children's Grand Park, Busanjin, Busan)
Antien ended up dragging Jeongcheol out.
I guess he really just wanted to stay home.
Look at the other couples.
Why don't you do that?
(Flip)
You don't want to?
(Flip)
Jeongcheol, you're so mean.
You're not cute at all.
That's too cheesy.
That's not cheesy. That's cute.
(Cawing)
Did you hear that? The crows?
In Korea, when you hear them crying,
then you're not supposed to go into the mountain.
It's dangerous.
What does it mean then?
What's in the mountain then?
It means that something's going to happen.
Something bad like an accident.
That's scary.
That's not true.
See? I think we should go home.
No, I don't believe in that.
We have an announcement.
The weather is dry and forest fire
easily occurs in this season.
(Hold on a second)
She's saying that we shouldn't go to the mountain.
There's a fire.
Fire?
Fire in the mountain?
But she's going to the mountain.
She's a firefighter.
She's wearing a red jacket.
That's the firefighter uniform in Korea.
I don't believe you.
She doesn't even look like a firefighter.
Jeongcheol, just give up.
Do they have boars here?
Yes, it's dangerous.
He's trying everything to go home.
Sports facilities have appeared.
Are going to have a competition here?
What about sit-ups?
Sit-ups? Okay.
And if you do more, then we go farther
and if I win, we go home.
Are you good at sit-ups?
Maybe.
We can try.
- Want to try? / - Yeah, let's try.
Antien has fallen for his tricks.
Start.
2.
Antien, you're pretty good.
- 20? / - 20.
Exactly 20.
Let's see how Jeongcheol does.
3, 2, 1.
1, 2, 3, 4.
(Let's go home)
Goodness. He's better than he looks.
Count!
13, 14, 15.
How come you are good at sit-ups?
You are so fat.
Give me my jacket. Let's go home.
- Is there anything else we can do? / - No.
(Panting)
(That was tough)
He was more handsome and
he was also more adventurous in the past.
That was the man I fell in love with.
I think it's just sad that after marriage
he gained 20kg and he's not as active as he used to be.
I'm not lazy because I gained weight.
It's just that my job is tough
and I work 6 days a week.
I hope she understands that.
I don't know.
Jeongcheol is sweating hard
to earn more money before entering the army.
Where are you going all of a sudden?
- Hi. / - Hey.
Do you have lunch break right now?
Yeap. I'm having a break right now.
I'm so bored.
Yeah?
I'm really bored of sitting all alone.
Just cleaning and doing nothing.
I don't know what to do. I feel so lonely.
But not by yourself.
Maybe you should go with my mom
when she comes back.
I don't want to go out with her.
I want to go out by myself.
By yourself? But what if you get lost?
I mean it's quite busy outside.
I won't get lost.
I know the way.
Later on. Bye- bye. Love you.
Love you too.
She's feeling very lonely today.
She's trying to watch TV
but she can't understand a thing.
Antien, where are you going?
Antien just heads outside.
She has never gone out alone except
her mother-in-law's place.
Where is she going?
How do I know which line it is?
Oh, English.
Nopo?
She must be confused.
Nopo? Nampo?
Where is Nampo-dong? Which way?
(I want to say that it's over there...)
Where do you want to go?
- Nampo-dong. / - Nampo-dong?
- Oh, there. / - There?
- That direction. / - Thank you.
Line 1.
How do I know which one it is?
Is this the 1?
Why are there so many 1s?
1 is everywhere.
Oh, it's this one. It goes to Nampo Station.
Why are you going to Nampo-dong?
I saw online that there is a famous thing
in Nampo-dong. So I wanted to go there.
It's like stuffed pancake called hotteok.
They say if you go there, you have to try that.
It's her first time going out alone
after coming to Korea 3 months ago.
See? I can make it.
I made it so far.
But where do I have to go now?
That place seems more quiet.
Antien is having trouble in this complicated area.
Where is the exit?
Do you know where Gukgi Market is?
Gukgi Market? Gukje?
Oh, no. I don't know.
They sell food, street food. Street food place.
Street food is outside.
I've been outside but I couldn't find it.
We can show you.
Really? Okay, good. Which way is it?
- Come this way. / - Okay, this way.
It's so hard to find things here.
It looks like Antien is already tired.
(Finally she's near the Gukje Market)
She has finally arrived at the Gukje Market.
She came to eat a stuffed pancake.
Where on earth is it?
It says "stuffed pancake with seeds."
She has finally found the stuffed pancake place.
It looks good.
(Crowded)
The end.
Are you angry?
What is she saying?
She's asking if you are angry.
I'm not angry.
Everyone talks like me
in Busan. Okay?
I'm not a gentle person though.
I'm nice one on one
but not when there are so many people. Okay?
Yes, thank you.
It looks like it's amazingly famous.
The superstar of Nampo-dong, the stuffed pancake.
She successfully got one.
It's really good.
Is it that good?
It's very sweet.
It must taste good even for a Dutch.
Very nice.
All the trouble she went through was nothing.
She successfully got the stuffed pancake!
It was a sweet outing by herself.
Is this the end of her Busan adventure?
Antien, why are you at Gwangan Station?
Only big buildings here.
I don't know where the beach is.
I got off at Gwangan Station.
Where is Gwangalli Beach?
There's no beach and it's getting more sketchy.
- Hello. / - Hi, honey.
Where are you?
I think I'm lost.
Where are you right now? Why are you not home?
I went out.
Oh, gosh...
I just got home and you are not here.
Where are you right now?
I don't know to be honest.
I wanted to go to the beach.
Are you serious?
Oh, my...
- But I lost the way. / - So where? Which beach?
Where are you right now?
Quickly. I'm really scared.
I told you not to go out.
Yeah, I know. Sorry.
Okay, I will be there soon.
- Okay, sorry. / - Yeah, okay.
She wanted show her husband that
she can go out freely by herself.
(Running)
Hey! What are you doing over here?
Why are you here?
I just wanted to go outside.
You didn't even tell me about it.
Because you said no.
I needed some fresh air.
(Antien acts cute to make up)
(Refusing)
I was worried.
It's okay.
Give me a kiss.
Just this time. No more.
Should we go to the beach?
You want to go to the beach right now? Seriously?
You think I'm in the mood to go to the beach?
"Why is she doing this all of a sudden?"
I was a bit surprised.
She doesn't even know the way but she went so far
so I was shocked and worried.
Also, I was proud that
she can go so far by herself now.
I thought she couldn't do it at first.
(She wanted to come because of her memory with him)
Gwangalli Beach is where they had
their first date after coming to Korea.
They made new great memories today.
(Preparing to become independent)
- Hi. / - Hello.
Noel, peek-a-boo!
I bought a book to study Korean.
A book?
We can't communicate
so you should study.
Short.
Short...
- Short. / - Shor...
You have terrible pronunciation.
Short.
Sort!
Wow, Noel! You're better than your mommy!
(That's easy)
Small.
- Smol. / - Small.
Smol?
- It means small? / - Yes, small.
Smol.
- Dirty. / - Dirty.
- Dirty. / - Your home right now.
- Your room is dirty. / - No.
- Clean. / - No.
- It's clean right now. / - It's not clean.
Surprised.
Surprised.
- Surprised? / - Surprised.
She's great at explaining.
Angry.
Mom is angry.
Antien, study hard
and get along well with your mother-in-law.
(I want a wedding dress)
(Yeonje, Busan)
The couple is all dressed up today.
Where are they going?
Wow, look at the dress.
It's so pretty.
Oh, it's Jeongcheol's cousin's
wedding day today.
- Hello. / - Hello.
Do you know who I am?
He's my uncle.
- I'm his uncle. / - I see.
(The couple hasn't had their wedding)
Wow, I'm jealous.
Look at her dress. She's like a princess.
Antien hasn't had her wedding.
She can't take her eyes off the wedding dress.
The bride ends up in tears.
Antien must be reminded of her mom.
It's very cute that they thank their parents.
Jeongcheol has a complicated look on his face.
Do you want a wedding like this?
Yes, I really want to.
With my parents.
That's a good idea.
- Let's invite your family. / - I want the wedding dress.
I really want to do a wedding.
It's so pretty.
I will make you happy.
Just wait for it. Okay?
Promise?
I promise.
Am I going to get that kind of dress too?
Yeah.
Okay.
(A few days later)
- Hello, father. / - Hello.
Long time no see.
Yes, long time no see.
Her father-in-law dropped in
to see his grandson.
Grandpa.
It's okay.
But his grandson doesn't recognize him
and breaks into tears.
(Noel has forgotten his grandpa)
(Sad)
(Noel, don't cry)
(Stopped crying)
Goodness. He has stopped crying.
(Grandpa is hiding in the kitchen)
Father, are you hungry?
- A little? / - Yes, a little.
Actually, I haven't seen Antien cook.
I have to mix this first.
Antien, what are you trying to make?
(Anxious)
Can I help you?
It's okay.
Oh, why is it sticking to the pan?
Oh, no.
I forgot the oil.
Do it slowly.
I forgot the oil.
Pour the oil around the edge.
Yes. Around the edge.
How could I forget the oil?
I'm going to flip it. I hope it's not burnt.
(Flip)
- Oh, it's kind of okay. / - Good.
Antien has prepared a pancake for
her father-in-law.
How does it taste?
- Is it good? / - It's good.
Good.
Thank you.
I have diabetes
so she didn't put any sugar.
I don't think she thought about that.
I'm not sure. I should ask her later.
(He didn't finish the pancake)
When did you come?
It's been about 30 minutes.
They are Busan men.
They are so gruff.
He has grown a lot.
What do you think of Antien as your daughter-in-law?
- Huh? / - As a daughter-in-law.
She's the best.
You have to thank her all your life.
I'm so thankful.
Why? She should thank me.
She came here just because of you.
She relies on you.
You have to pay more attention to her.
You have to express your love.
And be more affectionate.
I'm not good at that.
I'm too gruff.
That's the bad part of Korean culture.
Women want to hear sweet words.
Let's try our best.
- Yes. / - Have a happy life.
Have a cool and beautiful life. That's the best.
You gave birth to this cool little guy.
After listening to his father,
Jeongcheol gets immersed in his thoughts.
(Sunday morning)
No, no, no.
You don't need to put makeup today.
You don't have to wear makeup today.
Why not?
- We are going to get a massage. / - Huh?
We are going to get a massage today
so you don't need to wear makeup.
Why can't I wear makeup for a massage?
Why would you get a massage?
You don't have to. You have to take a shower anyway.
- Am I going to take a shower? / - Yes.
- Really? / - Yes.
- So nobody wears makeup there? / - Nope.
- Really? / - Yeah.
Okay.
A massage all of a sudden?
Something is strange about Jeongcheol today.
Ta-da.
Where are we going for a massage?
We'll get our massage here.
- Here? / - Yes, here.
- Seriously? / - Yes.
Wow, this is a wedding studio.
Actually, Jeongcheol came
a few days before and made a reservation.
You didn't come with your wife.
It's going to be a surprise.
It's impossible to have a wedding right now
so I wanted to get a little surprise first.
Women get to wear the wedding dress
just once in their life time.
So I prepared a surprise.
- Really? / -Yes.
- For real? For real? / - Yes. I'm dead serious.
Okay.
This is going to be fun.
Antien looks so happy.
Wait, do I get to wear a wedding dress then?
Yes, they have everything here.
We will be all dressed up and take photos.
I like it. I'm really surprised. I didn't know.
Even mom said we are going to get a massage.
Jeongcheol who always looked gruff
is smiling from ear to ear today.
Antien gets her makeup done for the first time.
She's pretty as is but I wonder
how prettier she'll get.
(Let's see Antien in her wedding dress)
Antien finally gets to wear the wedding dress
she has been dreaming of.
She has finally appeared.
(The bride makes an appearance)
Wow, she looks beautiful.
It looks like Jeongcheol fell in love again.
The beautiful bride of April, Antien.
And the groom, Jeongcheol, who loves his wife
even though he's a little gruff.
We hope you lead a happy life.
(My Neighbor, Charles)
- So you took your wedding photos. / - Yes.
Wasn't she so beautiful?
I didn't say it but she was really pretty.
- You were proud. / - Yes.
How did you feel when you wore the wedding dress?
It was very pretty so I really liked it.
I really felt like a bride. I really liked it.
You were the most beautiful bride in the world.
Looking at the video, it seemed like
Antien's mother-in-law was her personal guide.
The mother Kim Yeongmi has
come to the studio as well.
- Hello. Nice to meet you. / - Hello.
You don't seem like her mother-in-law.
They look like friends.
Her hair isn't permed.
(That's not my style)
You're like her real mother.
She's like your daughter.
I said that she's my daughter in the beginning.
She's my daughter, not daughter-in-law.
- She's so pretty, right? / - She is.
Did you know that Korean mothers-in-law
are a bit scary?
Yes, I saw in dramas.
I think I understand her feelings.
Like they give you money and tell you to leave.
She's very polite unlike Europeans.
She learned about Korean manners
and how to treat adults before she came to Korea.
Even now, when she visits my mom
she sits down on her knees.
It's really hard for her.
She has long legs.
Look at her sitting right now.
Look at how polite she is.
Even my mom gets surprised
since even Koreans aren't that polite nowadays.
She was educated well at home.
- Cool. / - You must really like her.
But still, she has a worry.
(I can do it by myself)
I can do everything by myself.
I don't need anyone.
I want to go out by myself
and see things.
And he's always at work so I must do things alone.
I just can do it by myself.
Why are you doing this, Jeongcheol?
Are you worried because she's so beautiful?
It's only been 3 months since she came
and she can't even speak Korean.
So I'm worried that she'll get lost.
Also, she's pretty.
- That's it. / - It's because she's pretty.
You shouldn't stop her.
How can a 21-year-old just stay at home?
Just let her be a little.
It's really hard because
Noel also wants go outside.
If he stays inside all day
he gets really bored.
And the house is very small
so it just feels like I'm in my room all day.
It doesn't feel nice. There's not much I can do.
You come from a family of 9 siblings.
Your house must've been huge in the Netherlands.
I think she should experience homestay in Japan.
The houses are smaller in Japan.
- It's just a room. / - Hong Kong.
We live in Seomyeon which is
a busy area with nightlife.
So it's dangerous to let her go out alone.
There are many bad people.
If it gets too frustrating, it can lead to
depression after some time.
She had a baby as well.
So I think you should let her do things alone,
let her go to the beach and eat delicious things.
If you just train her a bit
to do things alone, then I think she'll be fine.
But now, there's another obstacle for this couple.
What happened with the army?
I think I will get my draft notice
around September or October this year.
It's going to be hard because
he's the only one that I have right now.
I don't have any friends in Korea.
So it's going to be hard when he's gone.
Also, as for Jeongcheol,
leaving your child and wife behind...
Yes...
I'm also worried about my family
so I'm trying my best and working hard to
save up some money before I go.
If he goes to the army
do you intend to go back to the Netherlands?
I think I will stay here.
I just have to make some friends. I will be okay.
I really want to study Korean here.
If he goes to the army
I can go to Korean class and focus on that.
Noel can go to the daycare
because he's already 1 year old.
So now he can go to daycare.
Antien is very young...
- But she's very thoughtful. / - She is very mature.
I think she is his companion for life
whom he can rely on.
I didn't know it was this serious to Antien.
But after listening to her today
I think I have to change.
- We'll believe you. / - Do you promise?
- Promise. / - I promise.
You should promise Antien.
I'll change.
Do you promise?
You'll lose weight? You'll look handsome again?
And express your feelings.
This has been recorded.
You should wait for each other
and trust each other.
I hope they have loving and pretty life as they do now.
I really appreciate all your help.
I will try my best to be a better mom
and I will help you out too.
And I will try to understand Korean culture
and also try learn Korean very fast
so I can talk to you.
So there won't be any misunderstandings anymore.
We will be able to understand each other.
Jeongcheol, this is how you express your feelings.
Listening to her, the mother is tearing up.
I think I understand how she feels.
They couldn't express themselves
but she finally understood Antien today.
Later on, for our 200th special,
I hope to see Antien with Busan dialect.
- That would be funny. / - A Busan lady.
They are a bit clumsy
as they started a bit earlier than the others.
But that means they also have many opportunities.
I hope you continue to have a happy life
and thank you for coming today, ma'am.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
That's it for My Neighbor, Charles.
- Good- bye. / - Good-bye.
Daddy, daddy.
- Thank you. / - Thank you.
