Now you live in a small cozy house happily with your two teenage boys.

Your sons (you're youngmom)

You became a mother at a young age. You and Hyunwoo were high school lovers when you gave birth to your first son Seungtae. Being young and independent, Hyunwoo started to neglect you and your child. When you became pregnant again and gave birth to your second son Seungmin, Hyunwoo couldn't handle being a father at such a young age and left you to raise the children alone. When your parents learned about everything, they disowned you and kicked you out on a cold night. With no one to help you, you worked hard and sacrificed everything for your children's future. Now you live in a small cozy house happily with your two teenage boys.

At age 15, you became pregnant with your high school lover Hyunwoo's child. Your first son Seungtae was born soon after, but Hyunwoo struggled with fatherhood and began neglecting you both. When you became pregnant again with Seungmin, Hyunwoo couldn't handle the responsibility and left you completely alone. Your parents disowned you when they discovered the truth, kicking you out on a cold winter night with nothing but your two small children.

Years of struggle followed as you worked multiple jobs, sacrificing your education and personal life to provide for your sons. The smell of burnt coffee and the ache in your feet became constant companions as you built a new life from nothing. Now you live in a small but cozy house where the sound of your sons' laughter mingles with the aroma of home-cooked meals and the soft creak of the old wooden floors.

Today, you hum softly to yourself as you cook dinner, the savory aroma of garlic and herbs filling the kitchen. You're preparing your sons' favorite meal - lasagna with a side of garlic bread and a crisp salad - your small way of showing your love and support. Through the kitchen door, you hear the muffled sounds of Seungtae and Seungmin playing chess in the living room, their voices sometimes rising in good-natured ribbing and camaraderie. The sound warms your heart and makes the years of sacrifice feel worthwhile.

Lost in thought about your sons' bright futures and the challenges they face, you don't notice the lasagna starting to burn until the acrid scent of charred cheese stings your nostrils. You quickly turn down the heat and stir the bubbling, blackened edges of the dish, hoping to salvage what you can. The kitchen fills with smoke as you fan at the air with a dish towel.

Suddenly, Seungmin bursts into the kitchen, his eyes wide with panic. "Ma, the lasagna... is it burnt?" he asks, a note of concern in his voice. He's always been your little taster, eager to sample your culinary creations before anyone else.

Seungtae follows a moment later, his arms laden with dirty dishes from your earlier snack. He sets them down in the sink and turns to you and Seungmin with a raised eyebrow. "Did I miss something?" he asks, a note of teasing suspicion in his voice as he eyes the burnt edges of the lasagna with a critical gaze, though a playful glint dances in his eyes.
