Goddess of Marriage Episode 5 Recap



Hyun Woo and Dreamer meet up and hug in the middle of the street. Then he drives them back to their park, and as she starts to look guilty, he holds he hand and drives the rest of the way. As they walk she says "I've always thought that guys were the worst, they only one that i didn't feel that way about was my father." She continues talking and then he just suddenly kisses her. At first she pushes him away, but them grabs hold of him, and they make-out in the light of the dawning sun.  
When they finally break the lip-lock, she finally FINALLY comes right out and tells him that she has a fiancé.
Meanwhile Tae Wook sits at his desk, staring at his phone. Finally, he can't wait any longer and leaves the house, looking furious.




At Fishwife's house, she's putting out breakfast for the whole family. Her foolish son is trying to get the perfect shave, and her two daughters argue until the eldest makes the youngest, Min Joo, cry.  Her husband isn't much help but, he makes Min Joo stop crying by farting in her face. To all this Dreamer walks in, and dazedly goes into her room and climbs under the covers.
On the drive to work, her son, Jung Woo pretends to have a cold and wears a face mask, her foolish eldest daughter, Min Jung talks about marriages being based on reality, that she wouldn't be acting disappointed in Tae Wook and that Dreamer should just hand him over to her. This ridiculous young woman…
Soon chaos reigns as all the kids fight almost causing an accident. Clueless' poor son, Jang Woo, just wants his mom to come home.





However, she is in Busan watching her husband Seung Soo, and Cynthia, while trying to remain unseen. Even following to their staff outing. Seung Soo tries feeling Cynthia's knee under the table, but is told to let go and then he hits a woman by accident, who is of course Clueless. Everything she does, seems to land her in trouble. Running after their bus, she trips and makes two bike riders fall along with her.








At work Fishwife is working hard, when suddenly she realizes something. Rushing out of the building and over to a school yard, she finds her son bragging about his cool facial hair. Of course the wacky woman ends up shaving his face in front of the whole class. Why? Because he lied.






Dreamer is still laying in bed with Tae Wook tries and fails to reach her by phone. he remembers the last thing she said to him at his house FLASHBACKS START: "Don't you understand? You've killed me twice". Which reminds him of the first time he introduced himself to her. He came up to her in the radio station and told her that his sundae was he brother-in-law, and that they had met before. She didn't remember him, but he didn't seem to take offense. They ended up drinking coffee, and very to the point, Tae Wook tells he he wants to date. To that she asked "Why"
"Because I fell for you the first time we met"
"So you come a year after….let me just ask you one more question, why did you wait?"
"The first reason was, since I was a new persecutor, I was very busy. The second is I was so busy, I wouldn't have time to treat you right."
Seeming charmed by his words, even though she's a bit cautious because of his confidence that they're fated. They start dating. He drops by her work and eats with her co-workers, and very soon afterward proposes. she tells him "I can't accept your proposal. I don't think I love you"
"He tells her that, that's okay. he doesn't believe marriages last that are based on love, and even though he loves her, since he's sure he won't change, it doesn't matter that she's not in love." FLASHBACKS END. After all this, he returns home, and tries contacting Dreamer again, leaving a message to call him with she receives it.






Downstairs, his parents are fighting once again. His mother is so fed up with the father hitting and throwing things at her that she puts up her fists, and says "Let's go, if you want to attack, just do it. I can't live like this anymore!"  She actually does get to punch him twice in the arm, though I doubt they were actually felt, but he still pushes her down into a chair. They argue and fight, and finally she comes right out and says that Tae Jin and Good Wife are going on television, which in furiates him.



Meanwhile, Good Wife is getting her make up applied, while her old colleague throws dirty looks. She isn't happy either, but goes through the motions, first in a supermarket and then in a more intimate living room setting. Everything's going smoothly, and when asked how she like being a house wife, if she misses broadcasting, she says "No, I'm really very happy where my life is, and caring for my family." Which even makes her angry colleague feel pity, because it is so obviously a lie.
Finally Tae Jin, enters, looking happy and easy going, which only seems to make her more uncomfortable. He then tries to create a picture of an their relationship, in which, Good Wife, actually gets to have an opinion. He even shows pictures of the children, which was the one thing, she really wanted to avoid. The interview ends and he notices, that she's upset, and wants to know why. She tells him, they'll talk at home.





Dreamer finally gets up, and remembers the last half of the conversation she had with Hyun Woo where she confesses that Tae Wook was her fiancĂ© before Jeju, that they decided to break up before she met him, but when she returned, Tae Wook didn't want to give up on her.  She said that she knew all this must seem devious, and she had thought about what to do. She was really sorry. The whole time Hyun Woo, took it all in, but looked devastated. 



At the same time Hyun Woo is also thinking about their exchange as he drives, before having to go to the construction site of one of the buildings he designed. There are a few problems, because the owner keeps changing their mind about the design. Hyun Woo ends up joining them for rice wine, and even after they all get back to work, he sits forlornly remembering the times where Dreamer, tried to push him away.







Fishwife gets a call from Tae Wook, complaining that Dreamer isn't returning his call, but she gets distracted because her husband, Jang Soo is scolding their son, and the daughters are arguing. When she hangs up, telling him she'll talk to Dreamer, she goes to see her in her room. Dreamer is awake but still in bed, and tries to deny that anything is wrong. 
Later, Fishwife sits with her in-laws, and Dreamer can hear them saying that she's so lucky because he doesn't lack anything, he's a prosecutor and his family is rich, her parents must be soooo happy.

Meanwhile Clueless is still stalking her husband in Busan. Waiting outside the hotel, she comes up with an excuse of a sick relative she's visiting, and texts him asking if they can go back to Seoul together. He doesn't respond, but the whole crew pulls up to the entrance and goes inside. As she's  been acting really strangely, the staff at the hotel give her a hard time about getting in, but she rides the service elevator just in time to see the news cast all going into their rooms. At first it seems as though Seung Soo and Cynthia go into different rooms, but as she applies some make up, he comes out she sees that they are definitely having an affair. She ends up breaking down in front of the door when she can hear them getting freaky through the door. Quietly, almost inaudibly, she begs him not to do, what she knows he's doing. She ends up sitting on the beach watching the waves crash along the shore.





The next day, Good Wife goes to see her sunbae at the broadcast station. she talks about some of her responsibilities, and says "I'm not living in luxury as you think."
Sunbae is disbelieving and says "You didn't come here just to tell me that.  You came because you're afraid of what I might say to your niece and nephew. Don't worry, I'm not a gossiper."
Acting almost mechanical Good Wife takes a sip of her coffee, commenting on the taste, and seems to get lost in her thoughts.






As Dreamer leaves the house for work, Tae Wook is waiting for her outside, she go to cafe and he gets to the point saying "Let's NOT get married".

MY THOUGHTS

What the hell is going on with Good Wife? why are her niece and nephew and how are they connected to her sunbae ? When she was waiting, I thought she was there for one of two reasons, either to tell her to edit her kids out of the interview or to ask for forgiveness/ her job back. I'm actually a bit confused right now, where her storyline is going.

I wonder what Clueless is going to do, she is obviously really heart broken, but will she let Seung Soo just talk his way out of it again? Will she ask for divorce? Personally, I think she really needs to go find a hobby, whether she stays with him or not, she needs to do more for herself, and stop idolizing her husband or any one person.

It was nice to see Min doing some of the childcare stuff, even though he was very different than any parent I know, in his approach. At least, we can see that sometimes he's a help to his wife, and right now, I still think they have the best relationship. Too bad their kids are out of control.
