In "Mom Is Crazy," Kim Young-ok found herself in a situation where her son and daughter-in-law were about to discover that she was pretending to have dementia.

According to Nielsen Korea, the ratings survey company, the 16th episode of KBS 1TV's daily drama "Mom Is Crazy" (screenplay by Na Seung-hyun / directed by Sung Jun-hae), which aired on the 19th, recorded a nationwide household viewership rating of 11.1%, maintaining its position as the top-rated program among all shows broadcast that day.

On this day, Kang Da-mi (played by Jung Min-a) ran into Cha Seung-yoon (played by Dong-ha) at the location she had visited to catch a thief. Misidentifying Cha Seung-yoon as the thief, Kang Da-mi learned from Cha Se-na's (played by Choi Yu-bin) mistake that the pad had been swapped. Having reviewed Kang Da-mi's design stored on the pad, Cha Seung-yoon offered her advice as a senior designer and naturally made an appointment to go to the market together, showing his interest in her.

Jo Mi-mi (played by Kim Hee-jung), who had been worried about the recent troubles caused by her sons, became unexpectedly entangled with Joo Kyung-ho (played by Gong Jung-hwan). Joo Kyung-ho had signed a lease agreement for the building in front of "Mi-mi's Samgyetang," owned by Jo Mi-mi, in order to open a hospital. The two, whose relationship was set to continue from restaurant owner and regular customer to landlord and tenant, sparked curiosity about what kind of relationship they would develop going forward.

Meanwhile, Hwang Geum-soon (played by Kim Young-ok) proposed a special mission to her innocent granddaughter, Cha Se-na, on the condition that she would provide funding for the granddaughter's underwear brand startup. The mission was to engage in aggressive debt collection from the delinquent borrowers of "Hwang Capital." Attention focused on what changes Hwang Geum-soon's plan, which involved a unique calculation, would bring to Cha Se-na's life.

Above all, the conversation between Hwang Geum-soon and her grandson, Cha Seung-yoon, added a sense of sorrow. Hwang Geum-soon had been pretending to be a dementia patient for many years in order to protect the eldest son, Cha Seung-yoon, who was left alone, and to reveal the truth behind the death of her first son's couple. Unaware of these circumstances, Cha Seung-yoon turned red-eyed as he watched his grandmother, whom he believed had dementia, long for his shoes. The tender moment between grandmother and grandson left a deep impression, making viewers' hearts feel heavy.

On the other hand, Park Ji-young (played by Jo Mi-ryeong), the wife of Kang Hak-seong (played by Lee Han-wi), caught attention by applying for a staff position at the hospital Joo Kyung-ho was opening. Park Ji-young, who had been filled with ambition to become in-laws with the Hwang family, appeared extremely excited upon facing this new opportunity. This was further enhanced by the playful banter between Kang Hak-seong and Park Ji-young as a couple, adding light-hearted entertainment.

Towards the end of the broadcast, tension reached its peak as a precarious situation unfolded in which Hwang Geum-soon's pretense of having dementia was about to be exposed in front of Cha In-sung (played by Nam Seong-jin) and Jeon Jin-hee (played by Kang Kyung-heon). While Hwang Geum-soon was hiding a pill packet, her son and daughter-in-law entered the room. The sight of the flustered Hwang Geum-soon and the puzzled expressions of Jeon Jin-hee and Cha In-sung heightened viewers' tension.
