Doctor Cha (2023–…): Season 1, Episode 13 - Episode #1.13 - full transcript

DOCTOR CHA

And then suddenly,

I had this thought.

All of this isn't
just your fault.

Your mother failed
to teach you right from wrong.

And I was so permissive
in every single regard.

Our responsibility
in this isn't any less.

Yes.

I've made my decision.

I think the time has come

when it'll be okay if we're just
Jung-min and I-rang's parents.



As the father of my children,
I can let things slide.

But…

as my husband,

you no longer…

hold any meaning to me.

I don't want to
hate you anymore.

I just don't feel the need
to hate you anymore.

It's already over…

between the two of us.

Let's get a divorce.

Don't put on an act.

Get up.

Get up!

Honey.



Honey, open your eyes, okay?

What's with you?

Wake up.

- Honey!
- What's wrong, In-ho?

- In-ho!
- Dad! What's wrong?

- Are you okay? In-ho!
- Wait.

- Hurry up and call 911.
- Okay.

In-ho.

What's wrong with him?

What on earth happened to him?

- Mother.
- What?

Please go get me
a bucket of water.

Do we even have a bucket?

I'll get some water.

Okay.

In-ho.

What's wrong? Why
is your nose bleeding?

Here.

Mom.

Looks as if he just
opened his eyes.

In-ho!

Are you okay? Do
you recognize me?

- Yes. The address here is…
- I-rang.

I'm sorry.

Yes, I think we're okay here.

Yes, thank you.

EPISODE 13

- Are you going to the hospital?
- I have to.

If you have something
to say, say it.

Please forgive me.

Think of all the years
we've been together.

We shouldn't
end things like this.

I was ending things
with Seung-hi too.

It's almost done now.

I was going to spend the rest of my life
repenting for the things I've done to you.

You can't just end it like this.

I don't want…

to get a divorce.

Honey.

Your effort is admirable.

But this isn't something that can be
solved by you begging on your knees.

A divorce?

How could you
decide this on your own?

How could you not even bother
to discuss such a huge matter

with me, the other
party involved?

I've already made my decision.

I don't want to
discuss it with you.

This is a notice.

A divorce notice.

What are you talking about?

Divorce?

- What do you mean, divorce?
- Mother, it's not that.

Yes, Mother.

I'm sorry to give you this news
today of all days.

But we've decided…

to go our separate ways.

Is that why you fainted?

Because you were shocked
when she said she wanted to divorce?

I would've died
alongside your father

if I had known I'd
have to witness this.

I can't live with this.

I can't live like this!

Divorce at this age?

Grandma, please get up.

Let go of me!

You both are on
your mother's side.

Grandma, it's not like that.

We're only now
learning about the divorce too.

- Grandma.
- Let go!

I'd understand if you two were young,
but you aren't.

If it were me, I
would find divorce too bothersome.

You two must be full of energy.

You're dating at your age.

What makes you think she wouldn't have
the energy for a divorce?

In-ho.

Did you give
Seung-hi child support?

Hurry up, give her the money,
and wrap things up.

Jeong-suk might change her mind
if she knows it's over between you two.

She wouldn't accept it anyway.

She would probably
laugh at my face.

I guess so.

She's from a rich family.
She wouldn't accept such a petty sum.

Her father probably
cherished his granddaughter.

It wasn't like that either.

When she gave birth to Eun-seo,

her father abandoned her,
so they lived like strangers.

She finally met him again
right before he passed away.

He passed away recently.

It must have been
tough for her too.

Then what happened
to all his assets?

Did she not inherit anything?

I don't know the details,

but her father
didn't leave a will,

so she probably split it in half
with her brother.

Half? How much were
all the assets worth?

I'm not sure,

but…

wouldn't it be
around 100 billion won?

One hundred…

billion won?

I know you were surprised.

But it probably wasn't something
totally unexpected.

You both are all grown up too.

So you probably thought
something like this could happen.

It might be too early
to talk about this,

but I want to hear your thoughts
on this situation.

What kind of thoughts?

Jung-min, you're a working adult,
so I'm not worried about you.

You can live in the hospital dorms
until you finish your residency.

Right?

I-rang, what do you want to do?

If you want to live with me,
I can find us a place to live.

If you want to stay here,
then that's fine too.

I guess things like that
need to be decided too.

It's not urgent,
so take your time to think about it.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

It would've been nice
if this didn't have to happen, right?

No. It's okay, Mom.

Everything will work out.

So don't worry.

Okay.

It's late.

Goodnight.

DRIVER WITH DISABILITY

Have a good day, sir.

APPLICATION FOR DIVORCE
BY MUTUAL AGREEMENT

JUNG-MIN'S DAD IMAGE

JUNG-MIN'S DAD

HAVE SOME BREAKFAST
BEFORE GOING TO WORK

Jeez.

Good morning.

Professor Seo.

About Yoo Ji-seon's guardian
wanting to sue Seo Jung-min.

They've decided not to sue.

It could have caused us some trouble
but it's a relief.

Yes?

- Goodbye, sir.
- Yes.

It looks like Professor Roy
smoothed things out as an intermediary.

Judging by how he did all that
despite not being on good terms with you,

he must be a really great guy.

I suppose.

You two should have a drink
and get over your animosity.

And you should thank him
for what he did here.

You are both talented members
of our department.

It wouldn't do to stay enemies.

Right.

But have you made up
with Chief Lim of Family Medicine?

You even punched each other
the other day in the ER.

Our relationship is more nuanced
and complicated than yours.

You used almost all the shampoo,
but the conditioner was new.

I'm a first-year.

It's hard to find time
even to use conditioner.

Thank you for this.

Right.

Are you having any luck
looking for your family?

I just was on my way
to the police station.

To register my DNA.

I see.

Good luck.

Well…

Dr. Cha.

Ms. Yoo Ji-seon's mother

wanted me to relay
a message to you.

What brings you here, Doctor?

Today seemed to be
the last day of the funeral.

I wanted to say
one last goodbye.

My deepest apologies.

From one parent to another,

I wanted to say I'm sorry.

To tell you the truth…

The resident who discharged her
came before too.

He left after
crying on his knees.

But doing that won't
bring our child back.

I want to explain to you
why your daughter died.

I don't want to hear
it, so please leave.

Honey.

Let's hear it.

Honey.

Let's hear him out

just this once.

We're Ji-seon's parents.

We should know.

I need to know…

before I'll be
able to send her off.

She had a type of cancer
that was difficult to treat.

To tell you the truth,
I just needed someone to blame.

I think I even wanted to grab onto the
doctors who were trying to save her

so I could have someone
to blame for my daughter's death.

It's not your fault, Doctor.

I know that.

No.

It's my fault too.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Thank you so much

for all your effort, Dr. Kim.

If you're grateful to me,

make me one promise.

A promise?

You missed your regular checkup.

Right.

You should hurry up

and come to me.

MY LOVE TO YOU

Let's get married.

Yes!

I know

I'm going to die.

You know how sometimes

you just get this feeling?

That's how I feel.

So…

I really want to save my baby.

If my mom and dad raise my baby,

they'll sometimes forget
that I'm no longer with them.

And sometimes…

there'll be days
when this baby will make them smile.

My baby can find
out who her father is

when she is a little older.

He's not someone
who will turn his back on her.

Still,

you should tell someone

who the baby's father is.

To tell you the truth,
I gave my dad a little hint.

I promise to cherish you
for the rest of our lives.

My darling wife.

This is a notice.

A divorce notice.

Professor Seo?

Professor Seo?

Are you all right?

I'm sorry.

Goodness, no reason to be sorry.

Mr. Yang Gwi-ja?

Pardon?

Professor Seo.

That was the
patient right before.

This patient is
Mr. Park Myeong-u.

I'm sorry. I
confused you for someone else.

Professor Seo, you
must be very tired.

I'm okay.

- Professor Seo, are you okay?
- No, I'm not.

You can't sit here like this.

Come this way.

I really can't take this.

Get it together.

Why did you do
something you'd regret?

Jung-min.

Can you persuade your mother?

She won't even listen to me.

I know it's
shameless, but please?

Put yourself in her shoes.

If Mom had a kid
with another man,

would you be
able to forgive her?

Are you okay?

I'm not okay either.

I'm thinking about
what I should do going forward.

Like what?

Well…

I'll tell you once I've decided.

Why?

What is it?

Is it a secret you can't tell me?
You can just tell me.

It's lunchtime.

You should eat.

Where should we sit?

Over there.

Chief Lim, please sit over here.

Please have a seat.

Hey, the braised
tofu is good today.

You like braised tofu.

What's with you?

Why? Did Bong-suk say
she'd only date you if we made up?

No, I just saw the braised tofu
and was reminded of how you like it.

What a load of crap.

You always try to run away

if anything bad happens.

The same goes for this time too.

Don't you agree?

Yes, I was disappointed by
how the Surgery Department responded.

The same goes for
the donation last time.

That was all thanks to
Dr. Cha Jeong-suk from my department.

Your department
didn't do anything.

But you scooped up
two robotic surgical systems

that are 5 billion won each.

What do you mean
by "scooped up"?

- We just accepted the offer.
- That's the same thing.

How shameless,
without even a trace of conscience.

Take them then!

I've had enough
of this pettiness.

Do you even know
how to use the robots?

What?

Are you slandering every professor
of Family Medicine in the country?

All you know how
to do is surgery!

- I know a lot of things!
- Tell me!

We perform enemas, take out excrement,
and realign bones!

We make weird faces like yours
look presentable!

- What?
- Do you want to be slapped with tofu?

Try it!

I'm going to
smash your face into the tofu!

We have things to talk about.

- Did you spit at me?
- That's right.

I'm sorry about the
incident with my son.

I have no excuses to give.

You were trying
to protect your son.

I could understand.

But I want you to
remember one thing.

Eun-seo…

is your child too.

If something ever happens to Eun-seo,
be on her side no matter what.

Just like you
were with Jung-min.

Sure.

I will.

Then it's fine.

Let's pretend
this didn't happen.

Really?

Are you forgiving me?

- Yes.
- Even when I was like that to you?

You're really okay with it?

Do I look like I'm okay?

Though I forgive you,

you should be taught a lesson,

don't you think?

I heard Professor Roy Kim
helped with this incident.

That's what they say.

What did your wife say?

There's no way
she just forgave you.

She wants a divorce.

And?

She probably
said it out of anger.

I'll try my best to
make her feel better.

Fine.

Do everything you can.

That way, you won't regret it.

What do you
expect me to do then?

I told you I'll be the
one to end things.

Try to persuade your wife.

I'll wait for you.

After all, I've waited for you
this whole time.

Use this opportunity
to play the role of a good husband.

You should do
what all the others do.

ROY KIM

I heard that the Yoo Ji-seon incident
was resolved thanks to you.

- Thank you.
- Well,

I didn't do it to
receive your thanks.

Then who did you do it for?

It wasn't for anyone.

I just did my duty as a doctor.

I think righting a wrong
is the proper thing to do.

And there shouldn't be anyone
who feels wronged by this situation.

Professor Kim, it seems
you're not very honest either.

Seo Jung-min.

- Hello, Chief Yoon.
- You punk.

Why do you look so down
when everything has been resolved?

It's okay.

You need experiences like this one
to become a real doctor.

Don't you think?

That's right.

Dr. Seo, don't be
too discouraged.

Just think of it as a
learning experience.

Cheer up.

A learning experience?

Hey, Seo Jung-min.

I heard the patient's guardian
isn't taking you to court.

What a huge relief.

A relief?

- Why is it a relief?
- Why are you being so sensitive?

I'm just saying
since it was resolved well...

Hey, don't say it like that.

Resolved?

A relief?

You can do exactly
as written here.

Yes, Doctor.

That's an expression
I don't see every day.

You seem very angry.

Everyone seems
carefree except for me.

What does that mean?

They try to comfort me
by telling me it's okay.

But I feel like I'm about to go crazy
hearing everyone say that.

How is any of this okay?

Is it okay just because
they're unscathed?

And…

should it even be okay?

I definitely shouldn't
be feeling okay.

This is why I like you.

You don't try to justify things
in a petty way or wallow in self-pity.

You're good at putting yourself
in others' shoes.

What?

Follow me.

JUNG-MIN'S DAD

The sky is especially pretty today.
It suddenly made me think of you.

He's unbelievable.

Are they filming an
adult movie or what?

My goodness.

Kids these days.

Jeez.

CIVIL AFFAIRS OFFICE

WOMEN'S AND JUVENILE
AFFAIRS DIVISION

Hello.

What can I help you with?

Were there cases where biological parents
have been found this way?

The probability of international adoptees
finding their biological parents

is quite low, to be honest.

About 1%?

If the parents
register their DNA,

then a match can
be made quickly.

But that isn't the
case a lot of the time.

I see.

But there's been a
lot of publicity about this lately.

There are parents who register their DNA
to look for their children.

You see it on the
news sometimes.

I broke my collarbone
and had to be admitted to the hospital.

But even in this situation,
I missed you all so much

that I decided to do this live.

I look pretty even
in hospital clothes?

Thank you.

Right. Everyone,
give me a second.

- Doctor!
- Hello.

Doctor, say hello.

You shouldn't be
moving like this.

Doctor, please say
hello to my followers.

LOVE YOU NA-RA! YOU'RE SO CUTE

HELLO HI FROM MALAYSIA

How many followers do you have?

Out of 500,000,
about 2,000 are here right now.

Two thousand?

My doctor needs
to get ready too.

Put this on, Doctor.

Hurry.

- This?
- Yes.

Like this.

- Like this.
- Okay.

- Is that enough?
- Yes.

- Let's take a look now, shall we?
- Okay, bye.

I'm Cha Jeong-suk.
Bye, everyone.

Everyone, isn't my doctor beautiful?
Her skin is so moist and amazing.

- Doctor, it's amazing.
- Thank you.

I'm sorry, but you shouldn't
be moving about.

Please lie down so
you can get treated.

Menopause?

I came here because I couldn't perform
at night with my wife,

so what do you
mean by menopause?

Doesn't that only
happen to women?

No.

When testosterone,
the male hormone, decreases,

you can experience similar symptoms
to female menopause,

including the symptom
that you're currently experiencing.

Simply put, it's male menopause.

We need to check if you're suffering from
a lack of hormones,

so we'll do a blood test.

This is quite
embarrassing and strange.

Gosh, there's no
need to feel that way.

Even my husband has been losing his hair
and getting a frozen shoulder.

And his mood keeps swinging
back and forth.

I don't know how he's
doing in bed though.

Sorry, I was thinking
of something else.

No.

It's comforting to know that your husband
is going through similar things.

Right?

It's the same for everyone.

- I'll just do a blood test.
- Okay.

The cops found him passed out
on the street.

He smells of alcohol,
and his hygiene isn't good either.

His blood sugar is at 650,
and his abdomen is filled with fluid.

He seems to be addicted to alcohol
with liver cirrhosis and diabetes

that wasn't regulated,
which caused diabetic ketoacidosis.

Can he be admitted if we request
a consultation with Family Medicine?

Wouldn't it be better
to consult Gastroenterology

or Endocrinology,
instead of Family Medicine?

The professors and residents
are on vacation,

so they can't
accept more patients.

They asked me to consult
another department.

Okay, put in the consultation request.
I'll notify the professor.

Okay.

We'll also need to consult
with social services, right?

You're amazing.

Thank you.

It's nothing.

Sir, are you awake?

Where am I?

This is the hospital.

Where does it hurt the most?

You only work for two days a week.
Is it still too hard on you?

You're so popular
among the elderly.

It's too bad.

I would continue if I could.

But I'm not well right now,
so what can I do?

You were doing so well
earning extra money.

If you quit now,
it'll be a waste.

I get a small amount
from my pension,

and my daughter started working,
so she sends me money too.

Then you can enroll in health insurance
under your daughter's name.

That's true!

Hey, Mom.

That lady is obsessed
with working these days.

Why is she working so hard
and being overly friendly?

She's making us look bad.

I know, did something good happen
to her recently?

But still, I'm worried
she's pushing herself too hard.

Hey, I was calling to tell you

that I'm going to quit
working as a care worker.

Really?

That's great!

Jeez.

You would throw a fit
when I told you to quit.

What changed your mind?

Mom,

are you sick?

No, I just want to
take up some hobbies.

I want to learn how to draw and
how to play the harmonica too.

I don't think that's the reason.

Jeez, it's fine.
There's no need to nag.

Since you have a job,

I can get health insurance
under your name, right?

I forgot!

That's right.

Why didn't I think of that?

That's great. That
takes care of one of my worries.

Mom.

Is your shoulder
still not better?

Is it really bad?

It's because I'm old.

Someone told me to try acupressure,
so I'm on my way to do that.

It'll get better eventually
if I try different things.

DIVORCE APPLICATION
(APPOINTMENT OF PARENTAL RIGHTS)

WIFE: CHA JEONG-SUK

JUNG-MIN'S DAD

ARE YOU ASLEEP?

What is he trying to do?

I BOUGHT SOME SALT BUTTER ROLLS
AFTER SEEING THEM MADE ME THINK OF YOU

BECAUSE YOU'RE LIKE
THE SALT OF MY LIFE…

This isn't going to be solved
with baked goods.

It's too weak.

Goodness.

Goodness.

Mom.

Did she go somewhere?

Mom.

Mom, are you sleeping?

Goodness.

Mom.

Mom, are you in pain?

What's wrong?

Jeez, I'm fine.
Don't make a fuss.

What do you mean?
You can't even move.

Let's go to the hospital.

I had acupressure
in the afternoon,

and I think it was too strong.

I took a pain reliever,
so I'll get better.

Every hospital says
something different.

A shot to relax the muscles.
A steroid shot.

I've gotten every shot there is.

I've received acupuncture and acupressure.
I did everything I could.

None of them helped.

Taking pain relievers
is what makes things bearable.

If I feel better, I
stop taking them.

But the pain comes
back and I can't sleep.

You've lost a lot of weight too.

I have no appetite
since I can't sleep.

So I just naturally lost weight.

I've been all over the place.

I didn't even
know you were sick.

You should have told me!

It's because I knew you'd worry.
You're busy enough as is.

But…

why did you come
without telling me?

Is something wrong?

There's nothing
wrong. I just came.

Just came, my foot.

I also thought it was strange last time
when you just showed up late at night.

Is there really nothing wrong?

What could be wrong?

Just focus on getting better.

Come to my hospital tomorrow.

Don't you dare say you won't.

Ms. Oh Deok-rye.

You do have a supraspinatus
partial thickness tear.

But it's not bad enough
to require surgery.

It might get better
with an injection.

You say you're aching all over,

but it's not like
we can check your whole body.

I looked at your joints
through the ultrasound,

and nothing was wrong.

Your BDI is around 30.

Based on your screening, you're severely
depressed due to chronic pain.

Mom.

What are you doing?

I'm just sitting here.

I'm living a life of
luxury thanks to you.

How's being in a
hospital a luxury?

Still, I can be in a private room
like this because of you.

I think the nurses are nicer to me
because I'm your mother

and In-ho's mother-in-law.

That's not it.

The nurses in my department
are always friendly.

Mother!

In-ho, what brings
you all the way here?

My mother-in-law has been admitted.
Of course I should come.

Mother. Gosh, my hands are cold.

Mother, please don't worry
about anything anymore.

I'll call all my fellow professors
so you'll get better in no time.

Okay.

Sure, thank you.

My mother-in-law
was admitted to the hospital.

Please.

Look into it and call me back.

Thanks.

I'm friends with Professor Yang U-seok
of the Pain Medicine Department.

He's very talented.

He'll call back right
away, so let's wait.

Sure.

Thanks.

There's no need.

You didn't tell

your mother anything, right?

Tell her what?

That we're getting divorced?

Watch what you say.

You acted like the world would end
if anyone found out we were married.

So why did you suddenly want to speak
where everyone can see us?

I mean, aren't we
getting divorced?

To be exact, we're
not getting divorced.

You just suggested it,
but I never accepted it.

Whatever.

Don't let my mom know
what's going on between us for now.

Of course.

I'll…

I'll be good to your
mother too, honey.

Don't fool yourself.

I'm not saying I
won't get a divorce.

I'm just holding
off on it for now.

Fine. I get it.

But…

didn't you get anything?

I sent something
to your department's

medical office.

What?

What is it now?

More bread?

Something even better.

APPLICATION FOR OWNERSHIP
TRANSFER (GIFT)

Jeong-suk, you asked to
jointly own the house before,

and I'm sorry I
didn't agree to it.

It may be late,
but I'll make things right.

We'll have to pay more taxes

since we've been
married for over ten years,

but for you, I can
bear that much.

PS, just prepare
your seal and ID.

I don't want this.

You'll be taxed heavily.

Save your money.

Are you really
going to keep this up?

- Are you really disregarding my sincerity?
- Mr. Seo In-ho.

It's already too late.

I need to borrow some money.

Then what happened
to all his assets?

Did she not inherit anything?

I don't know the details,

but her father
didn't leave a will,

so she probably split it in half
with her brother.

Half? How much were
all the assets worth?

I'm not sure,

but…

wouldn't it be
around 100 billion won?

Wouldn't it be
around 100 billion won?

Wouldn't it be
around 100 billion won?

One hundred billion…

I'll be punished for this.

I can't toss my
daughter-in-law out

just to get more money.

Just the sound
of 100 billion won.

Gosh, my mind
is all out of sorts.

Hello?

Why are you calling
me at this hour?

Mother,

do you know my mother-in-law
was admitted to our hospital?

Ms. Oh?

You know how you crave something sweet
when you're in a bad mood, right?

So I bought every kind so
you can do that for every occasion.

I see.

They're too pretty to eat.

Thank you for this.

You look unwell.

Have they still not
found the cause?

Since I'm at a big hospital,
I consider myself half-fixed already.

Gosh, of course.

My son is making
every effort he can.

He was so worried about you
after hearing you were admitted.

He may not express it,
but he has a deep heart.

You know this too, right?

Yes.

What did I do to deserve this?

This is upsetting.

Oh, my.

Look how good he looks.

Gosh, that's my son.

What in the world?

Look who it is.

Hello.

Do you know her?

Yes.

You should head
up first, Chief Lim.

- Okay.
- Hello.

Goodbye.

Goodness, I didn't
expect to run into you

since this is
such a big hospital.

What brings you here?

My in…

Someone I know was admitted.

Have you been well?

I felt terrible after what happened
the last time we met.

I see.

Then please get home safely.

Yes.

Wouldn't it be
around 100 billion won?

Wouldn't it be
around 100 billion won?

One hundred billion...

- Grandma.
- Hey.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

What brings you here?

I heard Grandma
was admitted to the hospital.

Are you here to see her too?

Yes, I already visited her.

Go and comfort
your grandmother well, okay?

Okay.

- Then I'll see you at home later.
- Okay.

They're so nice
to their maternal grandmother.

Gosh, it's all pointless.

In-ho.

Yes, I'm at the
hospital right now.

Do you have a minute?

A PATIENT'S EARNESTNESS
CAN OVERCOME LUCK…

She looked so pretty,
sophisticated, and intelligent.

What a shame.

I know you met her by chance,
but why did you act like you knew her?

I wanted a taste of
what I couldn't have.

You didn't upset my mother-in-law
and then leave, right?

I even bought expensive cookies
from the department store for her.

You did well.
Please keep up the good work.

Hey, worry about yourself.

When was the last time
you bought her a meal?

Have dinner with her tonight.

Tonight?

Yes, I'll make the reservation.

And give her a lot of
spending money too!

Jeong-suk will see
right through this.

Is that…

Is that the issue right now?

You're about to lose your wife
and 100 billion won.

- Father.
- Jung-min.

Did you come to see me?

Grandma, that's not it.

Father, did you hear?

Why? Is something wrong?

The professor in
charge of Grandma.

- Yes.
- It's…

It's?

Professor Choi Seung-hi.

Dr. Cha, you're here.

You must have been so worried.

You can rest easy now that Professor Choi
will be taking care of your mother.

The chief here says

that it'd be good
if I came to Family Medicine.

He even connected me to a talented
and excellent professor here.

It seems we met again.

Please take good
care of my daughter.

There's no need for that.
She's already doing well.

You two must be busy.

You should head back to work.

Then please don't
worry too much now.

- I hope your treatment goes well.
- Thank you.

I'll come again, ma'am.

Yes, thank you.

PROFESSOR SEO IN-HO

I know that doctor.

I met with her for
my checkup last time.

I ran into her when I came
to this hospital's Orthopedics Department.

She seems so nice and kind.

It'd be nice if you were to become
a professor like that.

It's such a relief that you have
a good teacher around you like her.

Your life changes

depending on the
people you meet.

Of course.

It changes your life.

Completely.

Mom.

There are many other
great professors besides her.

How about changing your doctor
to the chief of my department?

Why change the doctor in charge of me
out of the blue?

Why? Is there an issue with her?

No.

It's not that.

That professor…

was In-ho's
girlfriend in college.

What?

Why isn't she picking up?

Though I forgive you,

you should be taught a lesson,

don't you think?

My goodness.

Stop laughing, Mom.

Jeez, you're so adorable.

That all happened ages ago.

That's not it.

Do you like In-ho that much?

To be jealous of
something like that?

Goodness, you have no pride.

Gosh.

CHOI SEUNG-HI

Assign a different doctor for my mom
no matter what.

Why should I do that?

Did you accept my mother
as your patient on purpose?

Think of it what you will.

Are you going to expose your relationship
with In-ho to my mother?

Is that why you're
holding her hostage?

Isn't that up to you?

I don't care what you think.

I'm going my own way.

So don't overstep
your place, got it?

- Please take care of Jeong-suk.
- Okay, don't worry.

Mom.

- Professor Kim.
- You came right on time.

What in the world?

Why didn't you tell me
your doctor was working here as well?

I know, right?

Why didn't I?

It always bothered me

that I didn't get a chance
to thank him before you got discharged.

It's great that we met again.

Thank you so much, Professor.

Not at all.

I wish you a swift
recovery, ma'am.

Thank you.

Mother!

Mother, why are you
all the way out here?

- Did you come out for exercise?
- Well,

I felt a bit stuffy.

I was just about to come to visit you
in your hospital room.

I wanted to ask you to dinner.

I made a reservation
at a great beef short ribs restaurant.

That sounds good and all,

but I'm worried I'll be
taking up too much of your time.

Not at all, Mother.

Let's all eat together with my mother,
Jung-min, and I-rang later.

The beef at that
restaurant is so good.

You're free too, right?

I am.

Gosh, Professor Kim.

You should be on your way.

I should.

Then I'll get going now.

Ma'am, if anything is bothering you,
please call me whenever.

Thank you for saying
that, Professor Kim.

- What kind of exercise did you do?
- I just walked.

Why did it burn so much?

I cooked it exactly
according to the time.

That's why I said I'll...

I can grill it well too.

Mother, I shall cook the meat
for you today.

It's fine. It doesn't
matter who cooks it.

What's important is that
we're here as a family.

- Excuse me.
- Grandma, I'll grill it.

- Let me take it, Father.
- Sure.

And the scissors.

Ms. Oh, eat up.

The food here is famous.

Mother.

I have been so inattentive
this whole time.

I always used being
busy as an excuse.

That's why I wasn't able
to catch on until you were this sick.

I have no excuses to give.

Please enjoy this meal.

I promise to be
a better son-in-law from now on.

Thank you for saying that.

All I want is for you and Jeong-suk
to live a happy life together.

Yes, we will do that.

That is why I prepared
something special

for you today, Mother.

What is that?

CASH CONVEYS FILIAL PIETY BEST
IT MAKES RAISING KIDS WORTHWHILE

What is that?

- Oh, my!
- Oh, my.

- Oh, my.
- Gosh.

- Goodness.
- Oh my!

- There's meat here.
- Oh, my!

- Gosh!
- Goodness!

Oh, my!

My goodness!

What in the world?

- Goodness.
- Hey!

- The meat is burning!
- Watch the money.

What is this?

Father, how could you shoot money
like that here?

I just wanted
Mother to enjoy it.

You should've done it at home.
This is a public place.

It's okay, Ms. Kwak.

In-ho.

I'm touched by this.

I've never been
showered with money before.

Thank you so much.

I'm so relieved you liked it.

But let's quickly
pick up the money first.

Yes, I'll pick them up.

- Take all this too.
- Okay.

It's going to take ages
to get all of them.

It's so good.

Here.

- Please enjoy.
- Okay.

It's delicious.

- Right?
- Eat up.

Professor.

Ms. Kwak.

What are you doing here?

Didn't you say you were going to Geoje
to visit your hometown?

And who is this?

I feel like I'm
getting a déjà vu.

It's another situation

where everyone knows the secret
except for one person.

I know, it was like this
at Mom's birthday dinner too.

I have a bad feeling about this.

- Let go!
- I'm glad I met you!

Hey, you tramp!

How dare you try
to seduce my man?

- Mother!
- No!

- There must have been a misunderstanding!
- Mother!

- You must be mistaken!
- Mother!

Please let go of her!
Let go first, and we can talk.

Ma'am, let go of her hand first.

- Are you okay?
- What do we do?

Mother?

Look at this.

So you're the son who had an affair
and raised a secret love child?

Be quiet!

No, Ms. Oh. It's
not what you think!

Please cover your ears!

Like mother like son,
both of you are cheaters!

Is it in your genes?

- Let go.
- Please be quiet!

Ma'am, what did you just say?

Did you just say he had an affair
and has a secret love child?

Yes!

He had an affair with his first love
and has a daughter.

Did you not know?

Welcome.

DOCTOR CHA

Is it the professor
in charge of me?

Professor Choi Seung-hi?

What have you been doing this whole time?
You should have won her back by now!

Once you let go of Seo In-ho,
you can reel in Roy Kim.

Can you come with me?

Is it because of that punk?

I don't want to use anything
else as an excuse to delay this.

You can take this to court.

I'm going to stop the divorce, even
if I have to spend my entire fortune.
