Directed by Lee Soosung

Hello.

- Hi, there.
- Hi.

Hey, Minho.



How's your new house?

Are you finished packing?

Yes... I like the house
but haven't cleaned the room, yet.

My baggage didn't moved in yet,
I want to do it all at once.

Still? It's been a while you moved in.

Well, is the house all right?

Yes.

Any problem... you are askig?

No, just checking, if you are all okay.

Then I will update you later.

How are you?

Hello...

How are you doing today?

Well, just...



Are you still tired today?

Yes, it is continuously.

After I quit work,
being self-conscious by the family.

My family doesn't care about me and...

It's not true.

Not to mention it,
Your family will be worried too.

You do not understand.

I do not make money
they don't even talk to me.

I don't understand why I lived so hard.

I was just about making money
for my family.

It is not what you think.

Then why don't you start to work again.

Are you currently looking for a job?

Of cousre, however...

it's not easy to get a job at my age level

just think about it,
I don't have any strength left.

Cheer up.

Still, you are the father of your family.

Think and focus on your family,
you'll feel better.

You think so?

Father means nothing...

My family can live well without me.

I still don't understand why I lived so hard.

Be positive.

Sir!

You keep on saying to me
‘be positive and cheer up’.

Do you think I am here to waste my time?

It's really cramped, really...

It's me.

Can I see you for a second on tomorrow?

No...

Yes, I know what you will talk about.

I understand your feeling
just try one last time?

Uh, okay.
Then tomorrow there...

MEMORIES

That's it? You want to say.

You could just say over the phone.

I felt we should meet and talk...

So what?

What do you want to talk about
rather than send a baggage?

We have talked enough
when we were divorced.

That's all you can say?

I still...

You are still thinking
I do nothing?

What you did to me was...

it's all happened because of
treating me like a crazy person.

It's not...

Like you always think,

everyone in the world has a problem.

It's not something you can solve
all others' troubles.

Then you don't...

have a problem?

You think you're perfect?

Why...

is this happening to us?

I want to stop talking about this.
No more!

Now, really...

Let's stop.

Oh, forget, detergent!

Ah... What am I thinking
I forget this again.

people moved must have left

What?

Why is this happening?

Threr are too much detergent mixed.

Obviously,

the colored laundry,
please separate and wash.

Otherwise, something terrible
you may experience.

I am just trying to tell you simple words!
Do you get it!

Whatever I say
my husband does not understand anything.

He doesn't give a shit about me.

Even my son!

He is just like his father.

My son does not have
any respect about me.

Did I tell you
I was almost killed when I had my son?

Yes, you did it.

Anyway, everyone in my family...
No repect to me at all!

Forget one thing,
did I tell the lady who live next door?

Last time, you did.

No, it's not the same stroy
with the last one!

Well, this lady
I met at recycling collection.

She did not classify the garbage
but threw them.

So, I told her "This crazy woman".

Hey, teacher? teacher!

If you have a negative feeling continuously...

It's not good for you.

What do you mean?

Are you saying I am wrong?

I mean, It's not the matter of
who is right or worng...

I think you are keep saying!

It's my problem and fault!
I can't belive it.

You are not even a doctor!

Why am I so lethargic...

Yes, let's get it together.

‘How to organize a bowl’

First wipe, wipe
The unseasonable glass bowl...

Specially shaded areas...

Clean with neutral detergent...

Then...

What's this?

There are more things to buy?

Aren't they too much?

If you always work in the house,
it's frustrating.

You are not in a hurry
it's nice to have some fresh air.

You really like to go out side much!

How do you feel with winter wind cool?

But it was a little cooler
I would be freezing death?

What is this?

Isn't it too much?

But what is all that?

Can I throw it away?

Ah!

Hang on a second.
I have a good idea.

What am I doing now...

Okay.

Jisu, what made you to come here?

I do not know.

Uh...

I am here for you
and heard you wanted to come?

Just...

I really do not know.

I don't care whatever you like to discuss.

Anything to say?

Well, that's...

Nothing.

Not really to say.

Well, then...

tell me anything you feel like to say?

Are you here?

Did you take the medicine?

I need to eat something before
taking the medicine.

Okay, I'll get you something to eat.

Are you hungry?

No, just enough to take the medicine.
I do not have any appetites lately.

I feel achy all over my body...

Too much rice... take out some rice.

Take all... It's not much anyway.

I mean it take some off!

Just eat it!
It's not really much.

Okay, okay.

Aren't you hungry?

I had some already.

I like it if we can eat together.

Any thing you feel like to eat?

Nowadays, there's no appetite at all...

Nothing I would like to taste.

I'm stucking at home.
I feel useless to eat something?

The living dead will be better than this.

You start it again.

Suggested you to do some exercise.

So you can take a walk outside
for nice weather.

Call me if you like to eat something.

Just a little walking,
my whole body hurts.

And you leave this poor mother and
having a good time at outside?

Of course! its like a heaven.

You asked me to leave you alone...

The maid will not come home next week.

Understood.

You take care well.

I am always getting troubles
with the company.

And the salary is not enough

I do not know how to live with it.

What if I get fired from the company...

I am not sure about my life.

You just started your job.

Everyone can make mistakes at first time.

At first, I was not kidding, too.

But, You've been doing this so far.

I do not know what to do
it does not fit with me.

I do not know how much time I can do.

I am not sure...

is there any hope?

Of course.

Please cheer up.

Let's discuss more later.

Lunch box, again?

Go outside and eat some at restaurent.

I just like this.

I just have a few things to think about...

You should not think too much.

Especially for our work...

Anyway, did you finish
organizing your house?

Not yet.

Will finish this weekend.

However...

Do you find any strange things at your home?

Moved person was a woman?

How did you know that?

It just happened to know.

If you have a problem with your home,
talk to me right away.

Its' my responsibility introduced you the home.

It's okay.
Do not worry.

Anything, I will not blame you.

Yes, true.

Can I help you organize your luggage?

Ah! I am done with consultation today.

In the afternoon,
I'll just leave to home.

Well, well then.

Yes.

Right Hospital

It's been a while!

What's going on?
You come to the hospital.

I'm sorry, I'm not here for playing.

My new job supporting hospital is here.

I am here to deliver papers and see you.

Right... I am surprised to see you.

How is your new consulting job?

You find a new job because of your mother?

Is your mother all right?

Yes, she is much better.

Well, just touble to walk around.

Sure, considering her age.

But after you divorced
I think it's getting worse.

What do you mean?

I do not know what your thinking is.

I told you before.

You hide your feeling too much.

You think so?

You do not have to be responsible for everything.

How can you do... right after divorce?
You decided to care your mother?

I had no choice.

My mother hated being in the hospital.

It was just short period.

Understood.

Just hearing others' problem...

My feelings are getting duller.

Well, then...

It seems like I do not know others' emotions.

Now, I am not sure how I can help others.

I do not know.

Your problem is thinking too deeply.

Those thoughts will make you more difficult.

Be ignore others sometime.

Like us, it is necessary!

Instructions for making candles...

Oh, too much...

In the morning, what's so busy?

Tidy up
You would not have had a break on the weekend

By the way, are you all done?

Not yet.

I had some situation...

But seniors!

Do you know anything about
the house moved lady?

No, just a little...
Well, well...

Why, what's wrong?

No, I do not.

I'm suddenly curious.

How are you feeling?

Still the same.

But I am not sure

If I still need this consultation

It does not seem to help.

If you keep doing this
You will never feeling well.

Ah! The ward office
also looking for a job.

We have time to talk.
Let's talk a little more together.

All right.

Anyway I have nothing to do...

You still do not want to talk today?

Yes.

If you do not speak I can not help.

Can you really help me?

Yes?

What did you say?

Nothing.

Why, what's up?

Busy?

After work, buy something to eat for me.

What would you like to eat?

What should I buy?

Can she say something before hang up?

Who is it?

It's me.

Is there another person to come?

You do not know, maybe...

I woud not eat these!

You liked them before.

Cann't you just eat them this time?

So, what am I going to say?

Just eat it as I bought for you.

Why didn't you tell me what you wanted.

Why does mom always speak like I did wrong?

What did I do wrong to you?

What did you do so well to me? Huh?

That good college entrance
without graduating college...

That was a long ago!

I dropped the medical shool!
Is that a sin?

How did I raise you?

You married a wrong girl...

No, no, no!
told you how many times!

Not because of her!

You should have lived well then, huh?

At your age, you would not marry again?

Ah... so stressful!

Please stop, please...

I will leave.

You, there...

Next Monday
Can you share some time?

Why?

Next week, housekeeper leaves early.

Who is going to give me a dinner?

Okay, then I'll come.

You really like to note memos!

‘Clean the toilet’

‘After you clean the toilet then
Look for another note above your face’

What the hell is that?

Toilet?

I don't sleep and what am I doing...

I feel good after cleaning.

Other notes
Where are they?

Ah! it will be above my face.

‘When you can not sleep with stress
Cleaning the toilet is the best’

‘You could not sleep
but can sleep well today’

Really?

Nonsense.

My family treats me like a invisible person.

They avoid me to talk.

When I worked and made money

I did not have time to talk with them.

But the kids used to send me messages.

And tried to talk...

These days, they don't talk with me at all...

I really can not sleep well recently.

I recently moved on

I could not sleep well
because the bed was changed.

However...

somebody told me ‘How to sleep well’.

- Would you like to try it?
- What is it?

Before you go to the bed,
try anything physically.

For example like toilet cleaning.

Oh, does it work?

I don't care whatsoever.

Try to find anything you do physically.

Once you set your mind,
there are many things to do.

It was worked for me.

No wonder memo in here.

What's this?

Organizing your living room?

Ah!

Okay, let's try it.

‘A gift for you
who finished cleaning up clothes’?

Gift?

Really?

You are not kidding?

It's a real gift.

How is going yourself with company?

Yes, I try.

Trouble with my boss every day...

That's why I'm nervous every day.
I can not work any longer.

Not long ago I moved to new house.

But strange former house owner

left this little gift in the house.

Okay.

The former owner is so annoyed

I found this and it was a bit scared.

I thought she was tryiong to
make some jokes.

This was hide in
really deep inside of the kitchen.

Putting my hand in it.

How nervous...

But since I found this

I appreciated it.

That was funny.

It was not a big deal but I was nervous.

Yes.

Former house owner was a little unusual.

Is that right?

If I gave up looking for this
because I was scared.

I did not get a gift,
the former owner prepared.

Anxiety... I think so.

Putting your hand
at the place you don't know.

Something bad can be happened,

Unexpectedly
May be a good gift can be received.

If you don't do anything
because you are scared.

Nothing will happen.

Do you still don't
want to talk to me today?

I do not have much to say.

Really?

It's difficult situation.

It looks I am wasting this time.

Here I want to say.

I'm the one
who needs to listen your troubles.

That's my job.

So I can wait you.

Until you want to share your problem.

So here is my suggestion.

Whenever you need me then let me know.

I do not care what you say, okay?

Fried rice recipe

Egg Roll Recipe

Anchovy Fried Recipe

Today is your last consultation.

How was consultation?
Helpful?

At first, I was not sure with your help.

It seems to be getting better.

And as you told me

I clean the bathroom
I also did housework.

This was surprisingly effective.

Looking at the housework.

This is just about to breathe.
There is also reward.

My family also likes...

As far as I know,
they've been watching my eyes quite a bit.

They wonder if it hurts my feeling.

I didn't know their caring.

I could not realize it...

That's great!

I was helped to you.

Yes.

What is daughter-in-law nowadays?
Not a slave...

Does only his son works?
I also work hard, too.

Really?

I think you are right?

Surly!

Did I tell you another woman's story?

No, you did not.

She was so funny saying.

My son is ugly and bad student.

Do not play with his son.

Really?

Her son eye size is different.

And that lady also...

has different eye size!

Her son is such ugly.

And how she can talk about my son.

That's right.

If my child looks a little like me
It would have been better.

- Yeah, it's a little disappointing.
- Isn't it?

And...

I thought it was no different.

It's okay to take it.

I came here and talk to you

can sleep well.

I'm stressed out and released.

Really?

I'm really glad.

Oh, wait a minute.

Here.

What's this?

I'm making candles these days.

Light it on,
the fragrance was very good.

Your mind can be comfortable
I also feel...

Hope this helps.

Ah!

Of course, I am not asking
you to hold the stress.

I like lavender flavor...

Thanks.

See you again next week.

Yes.

Goodbye.

Yes.

Wow, I did not know
you are such a good cook.

My wife even can not prepare this lunch box.

Thank you.

However...

how Jisoo came
and consult with the clinic?

Until recently...

she has been very serious situation.

She did not want to go to the school.

Attempted suicide...

Oh... yeah?

I did not realize...

Normally she is okay.

Suddenly, she often becomes uncontrollable.

Once in the school,
she attempted suicide.

Of course, school
asked her to go to the hospital.

But her parents never agreed
their daughter to go to the hospital.

Inevitably, she came here.

Yes.

So no one knows why?

She did not want to speak any...

Only parents may know why.

However, parents...

they do not admit daughter's problem.

That's more of a problem.

In the future, give more attention to her.

Yes, I understand.

Ah, but...

You know who is my house former owner?

May I ask?

Why?

You said there is no problem in your house,

why do you want to know?

Yes, that is right...

I am just curious.

Don't you have more consultations
in this afternoon?

- Huh?
- Yes, yes...

It's delicious.

Tasty!

Mom!

You should eat after dinner.

You would be full to eat dinner.

What?

Do not worry, I will have a dinner.

But this is very good!

No way! Stop eat it now.

If you eat rice, I will give you.

Son!

Thanks.

What?

Just everything.

Wow, it's really good.

This is really good, my goodness.

Hello?

Is that you, Jisu?

Where?

How did you get here?

In case, I called your parents for you.

You did not have to...

Anyway, the place is closed on Saterday?

Of course, we only work during weekdays.

Isn't too composed.

What if you have a sick person on Saturday?

Is this a hospital?

This is the place for listening
people's stories.

What if I want to talk on Saturday?

You are right.

I did not think about it.

Anyway, I can make
an appointment any time for you.

Well adults are untidy.

You are right.

Most adults are selfish.

Okay, can I understand you want to talk?

Hold on a second.

Wait!

Hold on.

Before you eat,
I want to tell you something.

There is a story in the movie I watched.

‘Life is like a chocolate box’

You can not figure

which chocolate you will take
until it is opened.

Like chocolate box,
people can not predict their life.

All chocolate are delicious, isn't it?

Cacao 99%?

No, it's not!

There are variety flavors in a chocolate box.

Sometimes, it's hard to live and deal.

But there will be a good time surly.

Can I eat now?

Yes.

I would like to ask,
if your problem is with your parents?

I hate my mother.

She think I am a just doll.

She likes to control my whole life.

I am very choked and feel like to be killed.

Really?

I also...

Teacher, too?

You are an adult.

Yes, I am.

So the situation is even worse.

We have to be like this whole life time?

Maybe?

But when you become an adult,

then someday your mom
become grandmother.

If so, without you,
your mom may not be able to do anything.

Just like a baby?

Yes, like a baby.

And that timing...

comes really quick.

So my suggestion is...

“Let's hold and endure just a bit more”

Really?

When the time comes then revenge!

Yes, that is correct.

Is there any more memos?

This is my last memo.

If you find this,

you may know every corner of this house.

And if you've seen other notes
you have finished your house cleaning?

What are you doing?

Now, do not just stay home.
Go outside and enjoy.

For your journey, I leave this.

Gwanghwamun Gate

There aren't such a big problem.

Your stress level is
just a bit higher than normal.

I was understood it was very serious.

Anything happened to you recently?

I am realizing these days.

People influence to other
much without recognizing it.

I see a little now.

I probably can influence...

to others in a good way.

That makes me very comfortable.

I think fear is for everyone.

Every time I meet people, I'm afraid.

But that's not my fault, right?

Yes.

I think I am now better than begining.

So...

I will try to find a new job.

Really? Why?

I do not think
it really suits your aptitude.

Not in a hurry,

But try to find a place
more appropriate for me.

All right.

You will find it for sure.

If you're worried again

Please come back any time.

Yes, thank you.

Next time, it is not for consultation
but entertaining with you.

Health Counseling Room

- Hello.
- Yes, hello.

Senior,

I would like to ask you a favor.

I was wondering
if I could meet the last owner of my house.

There is no problem in the house.

Hard to explain...

I have some thing to tell her.

I am glad...

there is no problem in the house.

However, the last owner of your house.

I mean...

the last owner of your house
was the one of patient in this clinic.

“How to be loved”

And she was in really serious situation.

She was not able to go out side alone.

Even coming to this clinic
for the consultation.

And she decided to go back
to her parents'house

that suddenly moved to another house.

She was mentally troubled

and lived all alone in the house.

I introduced you this house

but I was a bit worry.

Because I was not sure
about the house condition.

I heard...

She was hospitalized
near by her parents' house.

It will be...

hard to meet her.

I do not have her phone number, too.

Gangwon-do Hospital

Yes, hello?

I am a psychologist in Gurogu ward office.

If you have a patient called ‘Choi Jeong-yeon’
I'd like to check if you still have her.

Yes, yes.

No, I do not mean that.

Previously she has been consulted in here.

Yes.

Can't find her?

Okay, I see.

Sungshim hospital, Sebrance hospital...

Hello, there?

Yes!

I would like to ask you a favor.

I would like ask If you have a patient
called ‘Choi Jeon-yeon’.

Okay.

Okay, thank you for help.

If you find any troubles, please call or email.

...PLEASECALLOREMAIL@nav...

Hello!

I live in the house where you had lived.

And I had received your memos well.

You may not know
but those memos were really helped.

Also, I found your chocolate box, too.

Anyway, all those were so helpful.

So I wish I can be helpful to you, Jeon-yeon.

I really look forward to

repaying your kindness.

I would not mind
if you do not want to see me.

However, I really like to...

I'd love to tell you.
