Come here and sit down.
Ji Hye, come here.
Unni.
Stay. It's okay.
Stay.
I want to hear what you think about it.
They called and said
your dad was very sick...
and asking to see you.
I didn't want to let you see him,
so Dad and I went to Seoul, and gave
him your picture... and returned.
I told him I couldn't let you see him
because you're pregnant.
He understood the situation.
I knew you had to know at some point,
but I didn't think it would happen so soon.
He's my dad, not yours.
Whether I see him or not
was my decision to make.
That wasn't a decision you
should have made for me.
Your mom was just trying to protect you.
How old am I, Dad?
I'm 34 years old.
- But you're with child.
- I'm past the dangerous stage.
Ji Hye.
It's my dad, and my problem.
It was my dad asking to see me.
Why did you make the decision by yourself,
on your own like that?
H.. h.. he never looked you up before.
I heard it was a terminal disease,
and I knew his body would be devastated.
Whatever you may think of him,
the image of him like that
would stay with you forever.
I knew you couldn't erase that image...
and he doesn't have the right to leave that
image to you, nor to even ask to do it.
Those are your feelings!
My feelings and yours can't be the same.
Why do you dismiss me with yours?
Unni.
You have no idea what my
feelings toward him are.
You don't know what thoughts I had of him.
Because we never talked about him,
even once.
I never asked you because I didn't
think you'd want me to.
And you acted like he
never existed as my dad.
That was because you were too young,
before I met your Dad now.
And after we decided to get married... yes,
I completely erased him from my mind.
He accepted you as his own daughter,
before he ever met you.
I didn't want to hurt his feelings,
and I had no thoughts of your birth father.
I wished that there were
no other dads for you...
than this one here.
You took me to someone's
house one day and told me,
"This is your brother, this is your dad,
this is your grandmother."
How can I do that when I remember
that day so clearly?
Every time I went to visit
my maternal grandmother,
she asked me if my new
daddy treated me well.
So how could I have done that?
You have to only think of happy
things when you're pregnant.
I thought it would be better
for you to not know.
Why should you see someone who's
dying and be hurt by it?
Even if you knew...
It was my dad, so why didn't
you let me see him?!
Ji Hye.
What difference does it make how he looked?
What's so important about what
kind of image he leaves me?
That's my problem,
and mine to have dealt with!
I have never given you permission
to live my life for me.
You're not living my life for me!
I did it for you.
For me, how long were you going
to keep it from me?
Were you going to tell me
in your last testament?!
From Mom's position, she could
have thought it best for you.
You didn't know what I wanted but you still
went and made that decision by yourself!
I knew you would say you'd see him.
I knew you couldn't say
you wouldn't see him.
Then why?
Because you worried about
what Dad would think?
Because you felt sorry for Dad?
I didn't want you to struggle with it.
I didn't want to even think
about you suffering over it.
So I'm not suffering at all right now.
Me, who when I couldn't sleep at night,
I'd stay up and think a million
thoughts about my dad,
and now, I even lost out on my
last chance to see him,
that person is really happy right now.
I'm so happy, I could die.
Try to understand your mom, Ji Hye.
What were you doing, Dad?
You should have convinced
Mom how wrong she was.
Dad was against it. It was my decision.
I'm sure so.
You're the king so who would go against you?
Why did you do that?
This was something I expected.
It just happened too early.
That's something that no one can stop.
Even with a mom who died,
until I was in high school...
I wished I could see her just once.
Really?
I understand what Ji Hye is feeling.
Don't follow me.
Don't follow me because I'm fine.
Please understand why Mom did that.
If I were in Mom's shoes, I think
I would have done the same thing.
Not me.
You and I are different.
Where are you going?
I told you to not follow me!
Where are you going?
I'll go after her.
Oh, you're so fast. So fast.
Daddy.
What?
Can't we go in the sauna
for just thirty minutes?
We were already there.
You know Mom only gave
us two hours, don't you?
We've been out here fifteen minutes,
so we only have five minutes left.
How can we go back in
for another thirty minutes?
That'll be a problem.
If we don't get back in time,
she'll have us stand in the corner with
our arms over our head as punishment.
She wouldn't.
It's not good to go in the sauna so much.
If you keep going there so much,
I worry that when you're twenty,
you'll look like a seventy-year old woman.
Hey, that will never happen.
Hey, that is very much a possibility.
And when that happens, no amount
of regretting will change anything.
You should have listened to me.
The gods aren't helping me at all.
I wanted her to have the baby first,
and get her health back, then tell her.
Why did you leave your phone
lying around like that?
I didn't have any pockets.
What Ji Hye said to you stung, didn't it?
No. It didn't bother me.
It must be true that blood
is thicker than water.
How good were you to her...
for decades... and she talked
that way to you?
He and I hold different meanings for her.
She yearned for him without
ever having seen him.
I can understand her.
Maybe this is why...
it's such a rare blessing
for two people to meet,
get married, have children and stay
together for the rest of your life.
Yang Cho Rong!
Yes.
Human beings are slaves to their feelings.
When you feel good, you even
forget that you're hungry.
I'm starving to death. I need some rice.
There's no rice.
Oh, then I should have just
made some ramen noodles.
Hey, why don't you make some ramen for me?
Okay.
Is it that bothersome to
make some ramen for me?
No, it isn't.
Of course it is. Look at your expression.
It isn't.
Hyungsoo-nim, aren't you going
too easy on your kids lately?
- Cho Rong here...
- Uncle!
Mom's not in a very good mood
right now. Come this way.
Why? What?
What is it?
Hey, what is it?
Something happened.
So what happened? Tell me.
This kid... hey!
Hyung-nim. What are you doing here?
You shouldn't be here right now.
Did you leave Father there alone?
What happened?
What has Hyungsoo-nim so upset?
Was her TV program cancelled?
Take this to your mom.
Don't worry. Tae Sub Oppa went with her.
I don't know where. She just left.
Why did he die so soon?
Why didn't she call instead
of sending a text message?
Why did Unni pick it up?
I should have peeled the peaches.
Lie down, Mom. Lie down for a while.
I'm okay.
That's the problem with Hyungsoo-nim.
She thinks she's the way,
the light, and the life.
She handles everything that way. Everything.
What do you mean everything?
How could she decide on something
so important by herself?
That was so important to Ji Hye,
but Hyungsoo-nim didn't even ask her how she
felt, and just made the decision for her.
You really don't know why?
You can't figure out why?
To say that it was to protect
her was just an excuse.
What?
That was revenge against Ji Hye's father.
She took revenge on him for lying
to her about his marriage.
What's wrong with you?
If it wasn't that, then why wouldn't she
let the birth father meet his daughter?
He had every right to ask for that,
Hyung-nim.
I told you it was to protect Ji Hye!
I said that was just a handy excuse.
Are you going to argue with me?
You're going to argue?
What do you mean by a handy excuse?
It's natural for Ji Hye to be that angry.
You... you and Ji Hye's situations
are totally different.
You have your own mom and dad,
but Ji Hye is a stepdaughter.
To live in this family as a stepdaughter,
don't you know how hard
that must have been on her?
Why didn't she let her see her dad?
She should have allowed it.
She should have let them see each other.
Your mom mad a huge mistake here.
That's the way I think it.
I can't believe it...
Do you have any popsicles?
I feel so bad for Ji Hye.
Her situation has gotten so much worse.
Is your freezer broken?
What's wrong with this, when it
should be frozen hard?
Why is it so soft?
Yes, Brother-in-Law.
I see that you called. We're finished here.
Is there something you
want me to bring home?
I just wanted you to hurry home.
Tell her we won't go over two hours.
If we're late, it'll be ten
minutes at the most.
She sure knows how to suffocate a person.
That's not it. Something happened.
What? Is your sister sick?
Does she have pain in her stomach?
No, that's not it.
Not that, but something happened
between Unni and Mom.
What? What happened?
You'll find out when you get home.
Hurry home.
I'm hanging up.
Oh, okay.
What happened now with the two of them?
Oppa, can you understand what I feel?
More than anyone.
Can you understand what Mom did?
I can understand her as well.
I can't.
She always acts so cool.
She handled your situation so well,
but how can she mess up my situation...
so completely like this?
Mine was a problem to be solved.
But yours didn't need to be solved,
so that's probably why she did that.
Why didn't mine have to be solved?
To me, it was a problem that needed to be...
that I wanted solved.
I wondered... what I would feel
the first time I met him.
I wondered if I would feel awkward, or if
I would get angry and yell at him first.
I imagined that meeting so often,
with a person whose face I didn't know.
I wanted to see him at least once,
even if it was only once.
I wanted to know what he looked like,
what his voice was like,
why he ignored me all his life,
what he felt when he saw me.
I wondered if he thought about me even once.
I wanted to know it all.
There was so much I wanted to ask him.
I know.
Because I did that with someone
who no longer existed in this world.
I know our situations are different,
but the empty hole in the heart is the same.
I don't know what to do about Mom.
I don't think I can forgive her.
I was going to look him up
when I turned forty.
I was going to wait until I turned forty,
and if he still didn't come find me,
I was going to go and find him.
How could she have done this to me?
How could someone who was
my mother do this to me?
Cookies for Grandmother.
She can't have any cookies
because of her diabetes.
Oh, I forgot.
Then I'll have to eat this.
Let's divide this between you,
me, and Cho Rong.
Fine.
She won't be able to finish
this before she has to move.
There's no smaller bottle.
She can take it with her when she moves.
She said that's too messy, so for
me to look for small bottles.
Ah.
Oh, well.
Will rockfish stew be enough?
Yes, it's plenty.
Neither Grandmother nor I eat a lot.
Should we get some cuttlefish?
Cuttlefish is tasty.
We have rockfish,
so why would we need cuttlefish?
If I buy things we don't need,
she'll scold me for it.
Then should we buy some beef
to make soy stewed beef?
As a side dish, soy stewed beef is...
This is plenty.
If there's something she wants later,
I'll buy it and make it for her.
Oh, fruit. We didn't get any fruit yet.
Let's get some fruit.
I'll pay.
Move out of the way.
I'll pay.
You kept putting things in
so it's going to be a lot.
I put things in because I
was planning on paying.
Give me a chance to look
good to Grandmother.
Move out of the way. Move.
Here you go.
How should we entertain Grandmother?
I can't think of anything other
than massaging her shoulders.
Do you know how to play Go/Stop?
Is there a man in Jeju who doesn't know how?
She likes to play Go/Stop?
She likes playing for 100 Won per point.
Oh, good. Then we'll play Go/Stop with her.
Grandmother is really good.
You should know that.
Oh, really?
I barely know the basics.
I don't have much interest in cards.
Even when I go to wakes, I don't
get in the games they play.
No, it's not that I don't get in,
but that they won't include me.
I just put out whatever
card without thinking,
so that upsets people who care about points.
Do you know how to play?
I really, really, really like it.
I've stayed up until three in the
morning playing with Grandmother.
So how... I mean, how is that...
how can that be possible?
I can anticipate the upcoming cards.
What?
Open the trunk.
When did you start playing?
When I moved here and played
to keep Grandmother company.
Then, it hasn't been that long,
so how can you be so good?
I must have natural talent.
I just can see the cards.
Grandmother says I have natural talent.
If I didn't get a job right away,
I might have become a professional
female card player.
Wow, that's really surprising.
Okay then, I'll play with
Grandmother before dinner.
After dinner, you and I can play each other.
I need to confirm if you're
telling the truth or not.
Fine, let's play.
It'll be 1,000 Won per point.
Isn't that too little?
How about 5,000 per point?
What?
You're playing with me, right?
You're saying it to tease me.
You'll find out in a few hours.
I'll show you.
Just a minute.
Yes, Cho Rong.
- Where are you?
- At the market. Why?
You're having so much fun on your date,
you don't think about home, do you?
What now?
How about coming home if it's possible?
It's a really bad situation
with Mom and Unni.
Why? What happened?
Unni's birth father asked
to see Unni before he died,
but Mom let it go without saying
anything about it to Unni.
There was a text message about him passing
away, and his funeral, that Unni saw.
Unni blew her top, screamed
at Mom and ran out.
Mom just stammered through it
and took it all.
It's really bad here at home.
Where did Noona go? You let her go alone?
Tae Sub Oppa went with her.
And Hyungboo came home just a while ago.
Okay, I'll be right there. Bye.
Bye.
You drive. Please drive and
drop me off at home.
I'll tell you on the way. Let's switch.
The problem with Hyungsoo-nim is that she
makes all the decisions for everything.
Hyung-nim goes along with her on everything,
so they count as one.
She always acts like everything
should be done democratically,
so why did she go and decide
on her own like that?
She must have thought it wasn't
an issue for a family meeting.
Why wouldn't it be?
It can't be like dealing with a
matter for Ho Sub or Cho Rong.
The way she treats Tae Sub,
he's more precious than if
she gave birth to him, and so...
we never discriminated, and everything
was handled through family meetings.
Stop tearing apart an innocent
person and go take a nap...
if you don't have anything better to do!
I know about it already.
Then I'm the only one who didn't know?
Don't worry too much, Mother.
I'll do my best to calm her down.
It will take some time for her to accept it.
That could...
you could be right about that.
You didn't know, but once or twice a year,
she talked to me about that dad.
She was grateful beyond words for all
that her dad here did for her, but...
I think that's just how it is.
I think she wanted to confirm her
existence with him just once.
And it bothered her that she didn't
know anything about her birth father.
So she said she always felt like...
like there was a hole in her heart.
But you know,
if the same thing happened,
in the same way again,
I would have handled it exactly the same.
I'm not saying you did anything wrong.
I know that you did what
was best for Ji Na's mom.
I'm just saying that it will take some
time for her to understand that.
Even if she never understands,
there's nothing we can do about it.
The heavens will know.
Talk to her,
and help her to calm her emotions.
Yes, Father.
Okay. Let's let her lie down.
Yes.
Hey, Ji Hye.
I heard.
I agree with you.
But what can you do about it now?
It's over and done with.
Ji Hye.
There is no mother in this world who
does something to harm her child.
Don't scratch her and make her bleed.
You're a mom yourself, so one day
you'll understand.
Hey, Dr. Yang.
Yes, Uncle.
Why hasn't that kid been around lately?
Is he busy?
He's in Seoul.
Nothing with you?
Like something happened between you?
No, nothing like that.
Where to? The bed or the sofa?
Oh, okay. I got it.
The shock was great, wasn't it?
It was shocking to me, so how greater
was it for you?
I can only imagine.
Mom never had thoughts for me.
Hey, what are you saying?
That's not possible, Honey.
Don't attach this situation to others.
Mother made the decision
based on her judgment…
She didn't.
You don't know.
She was too busy worrying about Oppa
and adjusting to life with Dad.
I always came last to her.
Honey.
Then Ho Sub came, and then Cho Rong,
so I was pushed even further out.
Since it was a second marriage,
I'm sure she couldn't have put you first.
Isn't that something you should understand?
If I were her, I would have taken
me aside from time to time,
just the two of us.
I would have made time for just us two.
She should have told me
why she had to divorce,
what kind of a man my dad was,
what he did for a living.
Maybe not everything, but at least little
by little, I think I would have shared it.
If she did, maybe it would
make this a little better.
Maybe it was too painful
for her to think about it.
But Mom doesn't hold anything inside her.
Even people like that
could have painful scars...
that they don't want to be reminded of.
Mother is completely dejected.
It must have been very unnerving for her.
I'm sure it was.
But she said she would do it the
same way if it happened again.
That means she was sure that was
the best thing for you.
Just because you don't agree,
you can't turn her best into her worst.
What are you doing?
Go see my mother.
And do what?
And do what?
- Was he discharged?
- No, he'll go home tomorrow.
Are you really going to come home
and go back tomorrow?
Don't do that.
It's okay. I don't have to come back.
I've cleaned things up.
What about Soo Na?
She's in Yong Pyeong with her grandparents.
I'm ten minutes away from the airport.
I'll be home by 6:30.
You probably can't come until
after dinner with the family?
No, I don't think I'll be
able to come today.
Why not?
Something came up here.
What?
Wait. Let me go in my room first.
Is it about us?
No. It's about Ji Hye.
Are you going somewhere?
The airport to pick up some guests.
How is Ji Hye?
She's doing better than we thought.
Really?
What are you going to do?
I'll get dinner ready, Mom.
It wasn't as bad as we imagined.
Shouldn't we allow her at least
that much of reaction?
It's only natural for her to feel that way.
We all have our own minds,
so our thinking has to be different.
You think your way, Unni thinks her way.
For two minds to think exactly
alike can't be possible.
Oh, it's okay.
Ji Hye is okay, Mother.
So what if she wasn't?
Even if she wasn't, we can't
do anything about it.
Yes.
But she's not completely okay.
She asked me to come and get the number
of the person who sent that message.
She wants to call her?
Yes.
I think she's planning on going to Seoul.
She checked on flights, and there
are plenty of seats available.
I don't think it's unreasonable
for her to do that, Mother.
I understand.
- I'll take it to her.
- Wait, wait!
I don't think that's...
a very good idea, Mother.
It won't be good to have her get more upset.
I'll take care of it.
Ji Hye found out everything, Mother.
She would have found out at some point.
They say better first to be punished
than having to wait for it.
Yes, Mother.
If your children were better than you,
would they be children?
If she lashes out at you, just take it all.
Yes.
Don't be like that and sell it for me.
I have to recover even a little bit.
How can I just throw it away? Huh?
I'll call you back later. Hang up.
Hyungsoo-nim. Why are you here?
Doesn't she understand words?
Grandmother!
Yes.
Be careful carrying it in.
Okay.
No eating on the bed.
Okay.
Come.
She's the third, the baby of the family.
He was the only son of a well-to-do
family from Kang Neung.
He graduated from an elite university,
and was a journalist at a newspaper.
He got married during college,
and even had a son back home,
but I had no idea, and married
him because I loved him.
We loved each other,
loved each other very much.
His parents, his younger sisters,
none of his relatives...
came to our wedding.
He told me it was because his family
opposed our marriage, and I believed him.
When I was five months pregnant with you,
I found out it was a double marriage.
Your family didn't know anything about it,
and it turned the family upside down.
I was absolutely devastated,
but I had to endure all of his family
taking turns barging in and cursing me,
and even beating me sometimes.
But your dad promised
to take care of it all,
so I trusted him and endured it.
There was you, but even greater,
I couldn't lose your dad.
Then one day, his wife...
came to see me with her son,
and cried.
She just sat there and sobbed.
So I ended it.
I've never looked back.
That's everything.
Why did Dad do something like that?
It was a marriage that was forced
on him by both sides of the family.
Why didn't he ever come to see me?
Because he was too heartbroken.
Because he felt too sorry toward you.
He said he didn't know what to say to you.
He said the guilt he felt over you
was a cross he carried all his life.
He said he was sorry,
and asked you to forgive him.
He was really happy...
to get your picture.
It made him happy.
Why didn't you...
let me go with you?
Why didn't you take me?
It was the last time.
It was for the last time.
Even if he didn't do anything for me,
even if he never came to see me,
I was always really curious about him.
I wanted to see him so badly.
Why didn't you give me the chance
to tell him all those things?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know he was that important to you.
I didn't know he would go so quickly.
I didn't want to break
the peace in your life,
and I couldn't accept that he wanted
to shake you up as he left this world.
I couldn't allow that kind of
insensitivity and selfishness.
But he was dying.
He died.
I only thought of you.
I didn't think about him at all.
When are you planning to go?
I'll decide after contacting her.
Take your husband with you.
I'm going to.
Okay.
I'll just leave.
Okay. That's a good idea.
- I'll see you tomorrow.
- See you tomorrow.
I'm going to sleep for about an hour.
Oh, okay.
Mom.
What?
I'm fine. Don't worry.
I heard Noona reacted badly.
Not really.
Are you drinking?
I want to take a short nap,
then get dinner ready.
Cho Rong and I'll make dinner. We'll do it.
I was going to make chili pepper stew,
so I took some beef out.
Cho Rong has watched me make it,
but she may not be sure of herself.
Tell her to look up the recipe to make it.
Okay. Don't worry, Mom.
Rest.
Did you have fun on your date?
You know...
We went to Gappa Island, visited with
her grandmother for a few minutes,
and picked up some groceries for her.
Okay.
If you eat now, there goes dinner for you.
If you're that heartbroken over her,
why don't you just go with
her and lie down next to her?
They're going to cremate her.
They don't want to bother
with a cemetery lot,
so those worthless kids
are going to cremate her.
It's nice and clean that way.
I don't want to be cremated.
It's enough to die once.
Why go into that hot fire and die again?
You're dead, so how would
you know if it's hot or not?
How do you know? You've died before?
Just eat. That's enough.
It's boiling.
We have to let it boil for a while.
I can't believe them.
How can the entire group be a no-show
without even a phone call?
You don't have the dates mixed up?
I already told you no.
Don't return their deposit to them.
They didn't show up without any calls.
Could it be they have the dates mixed up?
No matter what, if they left a contact
number, they should be answering it.
Did you write the number down wrong?
I wouldn't have done that but even if I did,
they could be calling here.
If they think it's next week,
there's no reason for them to call.
That's not it.
You can't get through yet?
No. They're not answering, Father.
What's going on?
It's not just one or two, but twelve
people that cancels with no notice.
How can they do this?
Where's your mom?
She went in for a nap.
Did anything else happen after that?
No.
Where is Tae Sub?
Upstairs.
He's going to eat dinner here?
That's what he must be planning.
Are you sleeping?
Pardon? No, I'm not.
You're going after dinner?
I may go or not. I'll play it by ear.
It'll be easier on you to go
home and sleep there. Do that.
How's Mom?
She's sleeping.
What did Ji Hye say?
She must have thought a lot
about him all this time.
She said she was going to wait until she was
forty, and if he still didn't look her up,
she was going to go and find him herself.
Don't let that upset you.
There's a spot that can't be filled
no matter what anyone does.
No, of course not.
I just feel sorry for her.
Anything else?
Not really.
She thinks Mom solved the
problem with me cleanly,
but made a mess with hers.
How immature. She doesn't know half of
half of what's in Mom's heart.
I'm sure she'll work it out.
Just give her some time.
Yes. I'm sure she will.
She's smart, so I'm sure she will.
What are you doing?
I'm making rice.
Don't do it.
How can you make dinner
in the mood you're in?
If you don't want to go to the big house
for dinner, I said I'll go get something.
You don't have anything to cook.
I do.
What are you going to make?
What are you going to feed us?
Potato ham stew.
Go to the kitchen downstairs
and bring me some green onion.
They should be in the produce box.
And some kimchi.
Instead of the kitchen downstairs,
it'll be better to go to the big house.
Just make the stew. I'll go and see
what's there and bring some back.
If you want.
I told you I didn't want you to cook,
so I don't know why you're insisting.
How about going out to eat?
Let's go have a course meal
at a Chinese restaurant.
Daddy, really?
Do you think I'm in the mood to
enjoy a course meal anywhere?
Honey.
I feel like I'm going crazy so I have
to do something, even if it's cooking.
Don't make me talk and just
leave me alone. Please!
Go. Get away from me.
Go and play your video game.
Yes, this is Bul Lan Ji Pension.
Yes.
Oh, yes!
Yes, we didn't receive any calls,
so we were...
Yes.
Oh, goodness!
Yes.
How could something like that happen?
I understand.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes. Please call us back.
Yes.
Yes.
What happened, Father?
Right before they got on the plane,
one of the members passed out unconscious.
He's in surgery and the rest of the
members are all waiting there.
Is he in danger?
I'm sure they don't know that yet.
They'll find out when they
finish the surgery.
Yes, Hyungboo.
Dinner's all ready here.
Yes.
Okay, I got it.
That's just her fate in life, so what
good will throwing a tantrum do for her?
She has an angel for a stepfather,
and angels as relatives.
We all did as much as we could for her.
Don't worry about her.
That girl doesn't know how to be grateful.
What are you saying?
All you have to do is tell her to shut up
and straighten up her attitude.
There's no reason for Hyungsoo-nim
to be lying down like that,
and you to be dragging your chin.
In all honesty, is this a bigger deal
that this kid being gay?
Even that didn't make you
two go down like this.
Oh, is that the difference?
Because she's not his birth mother?
Yes, right. That's it.
Leave.
Why?
Leave.
I only spoke the truth.
Hearing the truth can be painful.
I said leave!
You're so sensitive.
Tae Sub, I didn't say that because
I have any hard feelings.
I only stated the truth as the truth.
Yes, Uncle.
Why aren't there any honest
people in this house?
Dad, do you want some fruit?
I don't feel like it.
Oppa, drink your tea.
Okay, I'll be right there.
Should I wake Mom up?
Leave her alone.
She must be hungry.
Did the stew turn out okay?
- I'll do that for you.
- It resembled your stew.
Mom, go sit down. Go sit.
You didn't leave?
I don't have to go.
Kyung Soo's gone?
He's here.
Hurry up. I don't need anything else.
Just give me rice and the stew.
One minute, Mom. The stew will
just take minute to warm up.
Okay.
Did you get some sleep?
I did. The soju was a big help
in putting me to sleep.
Have you heard from Big Uncle?
No. He hasn't called.
I haven't received a call from him yet.
Did anyone take a call from Big Uncle?
- No.
- No.
Go upstairs and get your
things together to leave.
I'm fine.
Even if you stayed, you'll just be
upstairs to study then go to sleep.
Save your time in the morning. Go.
Yes, go home. I told you the same thing.
Do you need anything? Some water?
No.
Did you do it so I don't
have to do them over?
I did my best, but I don't know
if it'll pass your inspection.
What are you going to do about Seoul?
When do you want to go?
Won't it be better during vacation?
I sent a text message.
I haven't heard back yet.
Maybe they're thinking what's the point now?
I doubt that.
If that's the case, there's nothing
I can do about it.
After what Mom did.
They have feelings, too.
If they won't accept me,
I have to end it here.
I don't want to get mixed
up with that family myself.
There's no reason for it.
I just want to go see Dad's resting
place, but if I can't even do that,
I have no choice but to even give that up.
I don't think that's the reason.
They're probably exhausted from the funeral.
How much energy does it take to
reply back to a text message?
They could be emotionally drained
and feeling exhausted from that.
I must really love you.
Just like you eat rice every day
and not give it much thought,
it's already been eight years for us.
I think I lived every day through habit
without having any special thoughts.
But earlier, when I heard
what happened to you,
I wondered how much pain
you must be feeling,
and it felt like someone ripped
out a rib from my insides.
Isn't that love?
Even if you go to the movies
with another woman?
How can you ruin a moment
like this that way?
I told you I'll keep it up
until the day I die.
You are really brutal.
Father, then...
Okay. Go on.
Yes.
Grandmother, I'm leaving.
Okay.
Don't worry too much.
I'm not worried.
It's not possible for anyone other
than me to know what's inside me.
We have to accept that and live on.
I don't know everything about Ji Hye, and
Ji Hye doesn't know everything about me.
I don't know everything about you, and
you don't know everything about me.
Right?
Yes.
But I have faith in you.
I have that now.
I'm so grateful.
I succeeded.
Do you want me to give you a hug?
Oh, that would be nice. Very nice.
Thank you, son.
I'm grateful and happy.
Not even 800,000 Won?
You can't pay even 800,000 Won?
Uncle, to junk it, you have to pay
them 300,000 or 400,000 to do it.
Just give up on it.
How can I give up when I have to pay
280,000 Won in repairs right away?
For repairs, 280,000 Won.
To junk it, 300,000 to 400,000 Won.
You have to spend at least 600,000 Won.
You're really tough.
Why won't you listen to me?
Just park it, and use it to go to
the orchard, or when you come here.
Wow, two cars? You're a rich man, Uncle.
This kid!
Then we'll borrow it occasionally, Uncle.
Fine.
If you subtract 280,000 from 800,000,
how much is left?
520,000 Won.
520,000 Won. That's cheap, really cheap.
Just give me 520,000 Won and take it.
We really don't need a car.
Are you saying you won't pay
even 520,000 Won for it?
Having a car just increases expenses.
You guys are so cheap.
Just pay for the repairs and take it.
It's free. Completely free.
You guys are really something.
You two are just alike.
You're just alike.
What if someone sees us?
Why am I especially happy to see you today?
It feels like it's been a hundred
days since I've seen you.
Why didn't you wait inside?
I wanted to see you that much quicker.
That's a comment used by players.
What happened at home?
Did things quiet down?
Mom's better.
I didn't see Ji Hye before I left.
I'm sure she'll be fine soon.
Things don't last long in my family.
Things get hot and cool down quickly.
Why don't you put some coffee on?
Okay. That's the opposite of my family.
My family must be the kind to simmer.
It could be a minor thing and
take two weeks to get over.
And I threw a bomb at a family like that,
so what else could have happened?
Not easy to get over.
Something seems different about you today.
You seem much lighter hearted.
You feel it? You see it?
I feel it.
Come here.
What I said to my father in the email,
he answered me in person.
He gave me his acknowledgement.
I misunderstood him asking me
to take care of the family.
He told me I didn't need to
say anything more to him.
He told me to live my life as I wanted.
Your mother?
She didn't put up a big fight.
I think my father was right in that she
was halfway there to accepting me.
- Congratulations.
- To both of us.
There you go again.
What?
Don't do it. I said don't do it.
Honey.
They sent a reply.
"It was good to hear from you, Ji Hye."
"I want to see you immediately,"
"but we are staying home until
the mourning period is over."
"Would you come see us, even tomorrow?"
"Please call when you've
made your decision."
"I'll be waiting."
"Your aunt."
Honey.
Reserve seats on tomorrow's first flight.
I told you don't yell.
I told you don't yell.
I didn't yell.
You did.
I'm trying, Cho Rong.
I still sound like I'm yelling?
Tone it down even more.
I'm determined to fix it.
It's not that big a deal
that you have to fix it.
I said I end up yelling because of you.
Do you like when people stare at us?
That's because you're so pretty, you dummy.
You're getting loud again!
Ah, really.
Cho Rong, I love you.
Lower it even more.
Cho Rong, I like you.
Even more.
Cho Rong, I want to kidnap you.
What did you just say?
I just finished playing Go/Stop
with Grandmother.
She was upset because I
won 3,200 won from her.
You should go easy on her.
What kind of a granddaughter are you?
She doesn't like it when I go easy on her.
You don't know how keen her senses are.
She glares at me if she thinks
I'm letting her win.
She said she would rather lose a few
thousand Won than have her pride hurt.
Don't brag that you're good when it's only
your grandmother you're playing against.
I thought about it, and I think it's
just false pride, and I can't trust it.
Have you ever played with anyone
other than your grandmother?
No.
See? I knew it. I just knew it.
Tomorrow?
Yes. I reserved seats on the first flight.
I see.
If she wants to go, she should.
I'm also...
Of course you should go with her.
Go. She'll need to go to be
able to put this behind her.
Yes. I think she needs that, Father.
What about dinner?
Of course. What time is it?
I'm talking about Ji Na's mom.
Oh. Yes, she did.
A little more than half.
She left just a little bit.
I see.
You love it that much?
I do. Loving it isn't taxed.
How can they tax even that?
I wondered where the sound was coming from.
I wish someone will give me a
gift certificate for gas.
I want to go for a drive, but too
afraid of the cost of gas.
If we win the lotto,
you buy a car like that one.
That's a really nice car.
It feels like it becomes one with my body,
a part of my body and no longer a car.
I heard the better cars are like that.
But I can't get rid of my old car
and it's driving me crazy.
What? What is it, Uncle?
A s.. s.. squirrel. Go away, squirrel!
Go away! Go away!
It's not going! It's not going away!

Where did your mother go?
When did he leave?
She should tell me when
she's leaving or coming.
This is the kind of trouble he causes,
just like this.
I'm calling because I have something to say.
This place doesn't seem to use good oil.
This isn't right. The batter isn't right.
If you're going to take the crust
off of fried chicken,
why not eat braised chicken
and not fried chicken?
Oh, man!
If I stay down, it affects
everyone at Bul Lan Ji.
Up, up, up.
Up, up, up, up.
If you don't feel good, just
go ahead and not feel good.
Do you have aged kimchi?
Make kimchi stew for me.
I wish you understood what's in my heart.
You think I'd marry you
on a bet over a game?
You're getting off easy. A one second kiss.
Close your eyes.
He thinks I'm after his money.
I don't have any thoughts of it,
but he keeps saying I'm
there to steal his fortune.
We may not get married.
I'm not sure, Hyungsoo-nim.
I wonder if this winter
will be warm or cold.

Episode 47
Come here and sit down.
Ji Hye, come here.
Unni.
Stay. It's okay.
Stay.
I want to hear what you think about it.
They called and said
your dad was very sick...
and asking to see you.
I didn't want to let you see him,
so Dad and I went to Seoul, and gave
him your picture... and returned.
I told him I couldn't let you see him
because you're pregnant.
He understood the situation.
I knew you had to know at some point,
but I didn't think it would happen so soon.
He's my dad, not yours.
Whether I see him or not
was my decision to make.
That wasn't a decision you
should have made for me.
Your mom was just trying to protect you.
How old am I, Dad?
I'm 34 years old.
- But you're with child.
- I'm past the dangerous stage.
Ji Hye.
It's my dad, and my problem.
It was my dad asking to see me.
Why did you make the decision by yourself,
on your own like that?
H.. h.. he never looked you up before.
I heard it was a terminal disease,
and I knew his body would be devastated.
Whatever you may think of him,
the image of him like that
would stay with you forever.
I knew you couldn't erase that image...
and he doesn't have the right to leave that
image to you, nor to even ask to do it.
Those are your feelings!
My feelings and yours can't be the same.
Why do you dismiss me with yours?
Unni.
You have no idea what my
feelings toward him are.
You don't know what thoughts I had of him.
Because we never talked about him,
even once.
I never asked you because I didn't
think you'd want me to.
And you acted like he
never existed as my dad.
That was because you were too young,
before I met your Dad now.
And after we decided to get married... yes,
I completely erased him from my mind.
He accepted you as his own daughter,
before he ever met you.
I didn't want to hurt his feelings,
and I had no thoughts of your birth father.
I wished that there were
no other dads for you...
than this one here.
You took me to someone's
house one day and told me,
"This is your brother, this is your dad,
this is your grandmother."
How can I do that when I remember
that day so clearly?
Every time I went to visit
my maternal grandmother,
she asked me if my new
daddy treated me well.
So how could I have done that?
You have to only think of happy
things when you're pregnant.
I thought it would be better
for you to not know.
Why should you see someone who's
dying and be hurt by it?
Even if you knew...
It was my dad, so why didn't
you let me see him?!
Ji Hye.
What difference does it make how he looked?
What's so important about what
kind of image he leaves me?
That's my problem,
and mine to have dealt with!
I have never given you permission
to live my life for me.
You're not living my life for me!
I did it for you.
For me, how long were you going
to keep it from me?
Were you going to tell me
in your last testament?!
From Mom's position, she could
have thought it best for you.
You didn't know what I wanted but you still
went and made that decision by yourself!
I knew you would say you'd see him.
I knew you couldn't say
you wouldn't see him.
Then why?
Because you worried about
what Dad would think?
Because you felt sorry for Dad?
I didn't want you to struggle with it.
I didn't want to even think
about you suffering over it.
So I'm not suffering at all right now.
Me, who when I couldn't sleep at night,
I'd stay up and think a million
thoughts about my dad,
and now, I even lost out on my
last chance to see him,
that person is really happy right now.
I'm so happy, I could die.
Try to understand your mom, Ji Hye.
What were you doing, Dad?
You should have convinced
Mom how wrong she was.
Dad was against it. It was my decision.
I'm sure so.
You're the king so who would go against you?
Why did you do that?
This was something I expected.
It just happened too early.
That's something that no one can stop.
Even with a mom who died,
until I was in high school...
I wished I could see her just once.
Really?
I understand what Ji Hye is feeling.
Don't follow me.
Don't follow me because I'm fine.
Please understand why Mom did that.
If I were in Mom's shoes, I think
I would have done the same thing.
Not me.
You and I are different.
Where are you going?
I told you to not follow me!
Where are you going?
I'll go after her.
Oh, you're so fast. So fast.
Daddy.
What?
Can't we go in the sauna
for just thirty minutes?
We were already there.
You know Mom only gave
us two hours, don't you?
We've been out here fifteen minutes,
so we only have five minutes left.
How can we go back in
for another thirty minutes?
That'll be a problem.
If we don't get back in time,
she'll have us stand in the corner with
our arms over our head as punishment.
She wouldn't.
It's not good to go in the sauna so much.
If you keep going there so much,
I worry that when you're twenty,
you'll look like a seventy-year old woman.
Hey, that will never happen.
Hey, that is very much a possibility.
And when that happens, no amount
of regretting will change anything.
You should have listened to me.
The gods aren't helping me at all.
I wanted her to have the baby first,
and get her health back, then tell her.
Why did you leave your phone
lying around like that?
I didn't have any pockets.
What Ji Hye said to you stung, didn't it?
No. It didn't bother me.
It must be true that blood
is thicker than water.
How good were you to her...
for decades... and she talked
that way to you?
He and I hold different meanings for her.
She yearned for him without
ever having seen him.
I can understand her.
Maybe this is why...
it's such a rare blessing
for two people to meet,
get married, have children and stay
together for the rest of your life.
Yang Cho Rong!
Yes.
Human beings are slaves to their feelings.
When you feel good, you even
forget that you're hungry.
I'm starving to death. I need some rice.
There's no rice.
Oh, then I should have just
made some ramen noodles.
Hey, why don't you make some ramen for me?
Okay.
Is it that bothersome to
make some ramen for me?
No, it isn't.
Of course it is. Look at your expression.
It isn't.
Hyungsoo-nim, aren't you going
too easy on your kids lately?
- Cho Rong here...
- Uncle!
Mom's not in a very good mood
right now. Come this way.
Why? What?
What is it?
Hey, what is it?
Something happened.
So what happened? Tell me.
This kid... hey!
Hyung-nim. What are you doing here?
You shouldn't be here right now.
Did you leave Father there alone?
What happened?
What has Hyungsoo-nim so upset?
Was her TV program cancelled?
Take this to your mom.
Don't worry. Tae Sub Oppa went with her.
I don't know where. She just left.
Why did he die so soon?
Why didn't she call instead
of sending a text message?
Why did Unni pick it up?
I should have peeled the peaches.
Lie down, Mom. Lie down for a while.
I'm okay.
That's the problem with Hyungsoo-nim.
She thinks she's the way,
the light, and the life.
She handles everything that way. Everything.
What do you mean everything?
How could she decide on something
so important by herself?
That was so important to Ji Hye,
but Hyungsoo-nim didn't even ask her how she
felt, and just made the decision for her.
You really don't know why?
You can't figure out why?
To say that it was to protect
her was just an excuse.
What?
That was revenge against Ji Hye's father.
She took revenge on him for lying
to her about his marriage.
What's wrong with you?
If it wasn't that, then why wouldn't she
let the birth father meet his daughter?
He had every right to ask for that,
Hyung-nim.
I told you it was to protect Ji Hye!
I said that was just a handy excuse.
Are you going to argue with me?
You're going to argue?
What do you mean by a handy excuse?
It's natural for Ji Hye to be that angry.
You... you and Ji Hye's situations
are totally different.
You have your own mom and dad,
but Ji Hye is a stepdaughter.
To live in this family as a stepdaughter,
don't you know how hard
that must have been on her?
Why didn't she let her see her dad?
She should have allowed it.
She should have let them see each other.
Your mom mad a huge mistake here.
That's the way I think it.
I can't believe it...
Do you have any popsicles?
I feel so bad for Ji Hye.
Her situation has gotten so much worse.
Is your freezer broken?
What's wrong with this, when it
should be frozen hard?
Why is it so soft?
Yes, Brother-in-Law.
I see that you called. We're finished here.
Is there something you
want me to bring home?
I just wanted you to hurry home.
Tell her we won't go over two hours.
If we're late, it'll be ten
minutes at the most.
She sure knows how to suffocate a person.
That's not it. Something happened.
What? Is your sister sick?
Does she have pain in her stomach?
No, that's not it.
Not that, but something happened
between Unni and Mom.
What? What happened?
You'll find out when you get home.
Hurry home.
I'm hanging up.
Oh, okay.
What happened now with the two of them?
Oppa, can you understand what I feel?
More than anyone.
Can you understand what Mom did?
I can understand her as well.
I can't.
She always acts so cool.
She handled your situation so well,
but how can she mess up my situation...
so completely like this?
Mine was a problem to be solved.
But yours didn't need to be solved,
so that's probably why she did that.
Why didn't mine have to be solved?
To me, it was a problem that needed to be...
that I wanted solved.
I wondered... what I would feel
the first time I met him.
I wondered if I would feel awkward, or if
I would get angry and yell at him first.
I imagined that meeting so often,
with a person whose face I didn't know.
I wanted to see him at least once,
even if it was only once.
I wanted to know what he looked like,
what his voice was like,
why he ignored me all his life,
what he felt when he saw me.
I wondered if he thought about me even once.
I wanted to know it all.
There was so much I wanted to ask him.
I know.
Because I did that with someone
who no longer existed in this world.
I know our situations are different,
but the empty hole in the heart is the same.
I don't know what to do about Mom.
I don't think I can forgive her.
I was going to look him up
when I turned forty.
I was going to wait until I turned forty,
and if he still didn't come find me,
I was going to go and find him.
How could she have done this to me?
How could someone who was
my mother do this to me?
Cookies for Grandmother.
She can't have any cookies
because of her diabetes.
Oh, I forgot.
Then I'll have to eat this.
Let's divide this between you,
me, and Cho Rong.
Fine.
She won't be able to finish
this before she has to move.
There's no smaller bottle.
She can take it with her when she moves.
She said that's too messy, so for
me to look for small bottles.
Ah.
Oh, well.
Will rockfish stew be enough?
Yes, it's plenty.
Neither Grandmother nor I eat a lot.
Should we get some cuttlefish?
Cuttlefish is tasty.
We have rockfish,
so why would we need cuttlefish?
If I buy things we don't need,
she'll scold me for it.
Then should we buy some beef
to make soy stewed beef?
As a side dish, soy stewed beef is...
This is plenty.
If there's something she wants later,
I'll buy it and make it for her.
Oh, fruit. We didn't get any fruit yet.
Let's get some fruit.
I'll pay.
Move out of the way.
I'll pay.
You kept putting things in
so it's going to be a lot.
I put things in because I
was planning on paying.
Give me a chance to look
good to Grandmother.
Move out of the way. Move.
Here you go.
How should we entertain Grandmother?
I can't think of anything other
than massaging her shoulders.
Do you know how to play Go/Stop?
Is there a man in Jeju who doesn't know how?
She likes to play Go/Stop?
She likes playing for 100 Won per point.
Oh, good. Then we'll play Go/Stop with her.
Grandmother is really good.
You should know that.
Oh, really?
I barely know the basics.
I don't have much interest in cards.
Even when I go to wakes, I don't
get in the games they play.
No, it's not that I don't get in,
but that they won't include me.
I just put out whatever
card without thinking,
so that upsets people who care about points.
Do you know how to play?
I really, really, really like it.
I've stayed up until three in the
morning playing with Grandmother.
So how... I mean, how is that...
how can that be possible?
I can anticipate the upcoming cards.
What?
Open the trunk.
When did you start playing?
When I moved here and played
to keep Grandmother company.
Then, it hasn't been that long,
so how can you be so good?
I must have natural talent.
I just can see the cards.
Grandmother says I have natural talent.
If I didn't get a job right away,
I might have become a professional
female card player.
Wow, that's really surprising.
Okay then, I'll play with
Grandmother before dinner.
After dinner, you and I can play each other.
I need to confirm if you're
telling the truth or not.
Fine, let's play.
It'll be 1,000 Won per point.
Isn't that too little?
How about 5,000 per point?
What?
You're playing with me, right?
You're saying it to tease me.
You'll find out in a few hours.
I'll show you.
Just a minute.
Yes, Cho Rong.
- Where are you?
- At the market. Why?
You're having so much fun on your date,
you don't think about home, do you?
What now?
How about coming home if it's possible?
It's a really bad situation
with Mom and Unni.
Why? What happened?
Unni's birth father asked
to see Unni before he died,
but Mom let it go without saying
anything about it to Unni.
There was a text message about him passing
away, and his funeral, that Unni saw.
Unni blew her top, screamed
at Mom and ran out.
Mom just stammered through it
and took it all.
It's really bad here at home.
Where did Noona go? You let her go alone?
Tae Sub Oppa went with her.
And Hyungboo came home just a while ago.
Okay, I'll be right there. Bye.
Bye.
You drive. Please drive and
drop me off at home.
I'll tell you on the way. Let's switch.
The problem with Hyungsoo-nim is that she
makes all the decisions for everything.
Hyung-nim goes along with her on everything,
so they count as one.
She always acts like everything
should be done democratically,
so why did she go and decide
on her own like that?
She must have thought it wasn't
an issue for a family meeting.
Why wouldn't it be?
It can't be like dealing with a
matter for Ho Sub or Cho Rong.
The way she treats Tae Sub,
he's more precious than if
she gave birth to him, and so...
we never discriminated, and everything
was handled through family meetings.
Stop tearing apart an innocent
person and go take a nap...
if you don't have anything better to do!
I know about it already.
Then I'm the only one who didn't know?
Don't worry too much, Mother.
I'll do my best to calm her down.
It will take some time for her to accept it.
That could...
you could be right about that.
You didn't know, but once or twice a year,
she talked to me about that dad.
She was grateful beyond words for all
that her dad here did for her, but...
I think that's just how it is.
I think she wanted to confirm her
existence with him just once.
And it bothered her that she didn't
know anything about her birth father.
So she said she always felt like...
like there was a hole in her heart.
But you know,
if the same thing happened,
in the same way again,
I would have handled it exactly the same.
I'm not saying you did anything wrong.
I know that you did what
was best for Ji Na's mom.
I'm just saying that it will take some
time for her to understand that.
Even if she never understands,
there's nothing we can do about it.
The heavens will know.
Talk to her,
and help her to calm her emotions.
Yes, Father.
Okay. Let's let her lie down.
Yes.
Hey, Ji Hye.
I heard.
I agree with you.
But what can you do about it now?
It's over and done with.
Ji Hye.
There is no mother in this world who
does something to harm her child.
Don't scratch her and make her bleed.
You're a mom yourself, so one day
you'll understand.
Hey, Dr. Yang.
Yes, Uncle.
Why hasn't that kid been around lately?
Is he busy?
He's in Seoul.
Nothing with you?
Like something happened between you?
No, nothing like that.
Where to? The bed or the sofa?
Oh, okay. I got it.
The shock was great, wasn't it?
It was shocking to me, so how greater
was it for you?
I can only imagine.
Mom never had thoughts for me.
Hey, what are you saying?
That's not possible, Honey.
Don't attach this situation to others.
Mother made the decision
based on her judgment…
She didn't.
You don't know.
She was too busy worrying about Oppa
and adjusting to life with Dad.
I always came last to her.
Honey.
Then Ho Sub came, and then Cho Rong,
so I was pushed even further out.
Since it was a second marriage,
I'm sure she couldn't have put you first.
Isn't that something you should understand?
If I were her, I would have taken
me aside from time to time,
just the two of us.
I would have made time for just us two.
She should have told me
why she had to divorce,
what kind of a man my dad was,
what he did for a living.
Maybe not everything, but at least little
by little, I think I would have shared it.
If she did, maybe it would
make this a little better.
Maybe it was too painful
for her to think about it.
But Mom doesn't hold anything inside her.
Even people like that
could have painful scars...
that they don't want to be reminded of.
Mother is completely dejected.
It must have been very unnerving for her.
I'm sure it was.
But she said she would do it the
same way if it happened again.
That means she was sure that was
the best thing for you.
Just because you don't agree,
you can't turn her best into her worst.
What are you doing?
Go see my mother.
And do what?
And do what?
- Was he discharged?
- No, he'll go home tomorrow.
Are you really going to come home
and go back tomorrow?
Don't do that.
It's okay. I don't have to come back.
I've cleaned things up.
What about Soo Na?
She's in Yong Pyeong with her grandparents.
I'm ten minutes away from the airport.
I'll be home by 6:30.
You probably can't come until
after dinner with the family?
No, I don't think I'll be
able to come today.
Why not?
Something came up here.
What?
Wait. Let me go in my room first.
Is it about us?
No. It's about Ji Hye.
Are you going somewhere?
The airport to pick up some guests.
How is Ji Hye?
She's doing better than we thought.
Really?
What are you going to do?
I'll get dinner ready, Mom.
It wasn't as bad as we imagined.
Shouldn't we allow her at least
that much of reaction?
It's only natural for her to feel that way.
We all have our own minds,
so our thinking has to be different.
You think your way, Unni thinks her way.
For two minds to think exactly
alike can't be possible.
Oh, it's okay.
Ji Hye is okay, Mother.
So what if she wasn't?
Even if she wasn't, we can't
do anything about it.
Yes.
But she's not completely okay.
She asked me to come and get the number
of the person who sent that message.
She wants to call her?
Yes.
I think she's planning on going to Seoul.
She checked on flights, and there
are plenty of seats available.
I don't think it's unreasonable
for her to do that, Mother.
I understand.
- I'll take it to her.
- Wait, wait!
I don't think that's...
a very good idea, Mother.
It won't be good to have her get more upset.
I'll take care of it.
Ji Hye found out everything, Mother.
She would have found out at some point.
They say better first to be punished
than having to wait for it.
Yes, Mother.
If your children were better than you,
would they be children?
If she lashes out at you, just take it all.
Yes.
Don't be like that and sell it for me.
I have to recover even a little bit.
How can I just throw it away? Huh?
I'll call you back later. Hang up.
Hyungsoo-nim. Why are you here?
Doesn't she understand words?
Grandmother!
Yes.
Be careful carrying it in.
Okay.
No eating on the bed.
Okay.
Come.
She's the third, the baby of the family.
He was the only son of a well-to-do
family from Kang Neung.
He graduated from an elite university,
and was a journalist at a newspaper.
He got married during college,
and even had a son back home,
but I had no idea, and married
him because I loved him.
We loved each other,
loved each other very much.
His parents, his younger sisters,
none of his relatives...
came to our wedding.
He told me it was because his family
opposed our marriage, and I believed him.
When I was five months pregnant with you,
I found out it was a double marriage.
Your family didn't know anything about it,
and it turned the family upside down.
I was absolutely devastated,
but I had to endure all of his family
taking turns barging in and cursing me,
and even beating me sometimes.
But your dad promised
to take care of it all,
so I trusted him and endured it.
There was you, but even greater,
I couldn't lose your dad.
Then one day, his wife...
came to see me with her son,
and cried.
She just sat there and sobbed.
So I ended it.
I've never looked back.
That's everything.
Why did Dad do something like that?
It was a marriage that was forced
on him by both sides of the family.
Why didn't he ever come to see me?
Because he was too heartbroken.
Because he felt too sorry toward you.
He said he didn't know what to say to you.
He said the guilt he felt over you
was a cross he carried all his life.
He said he was sorry,
and asked you to forgive him.
He was really happy...
to get your picture.
It made him happy.
Why didn't you...
let me go with you?
Why didn't you take me?
It was the last time.
It was for the last time.
Even if he didn't do anything for me,
even if he never came to see me,
I was always really curious about him.
I wanted to see him so badly.
Why didn't you give me the chance
to tell him all those things?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know he was that important to you.
I didn't know he would go so quickly.
I didn't want to break
the peace in your life,
and I couldn't accept that he wanted
to shake you up as he left this world.
I couldn't allow that kind of
insensitivity and selfishness.
But he was dying.
He died.
I only thought of you.
I didn't think about him at all.
When are you planning to go?
I'll decide after contacting her.
Take your husband with you.
I'm going to.
Okay.
I'll just leave.
Okay. That's a good idea.
- I'll see you tomorrow.
- See you tomorrow.
I'm going to sleep for about an hour.
Oh, okay.
Mom.
What?
I'm fine. Don't worry.
I heard Noona reacted badly.
Not really.
Are you drinking?
I want to take a short nap,
then get dinner ready.
Cho Rong and I'll make dinner. We'll do it.
I was going to make chili pepper stew,
so I took some beef out.
Cho Rong has watched me make it,
but she may not be sure of herself.
Tell her to look up the recipe to make it.
Okay. Don't worry, Mom.
Rest.
Did you have fun on your date?
You know...
We went to Gappa Island, visited with
her grandmother for a few minutes,
and picked up some groceries for her.
Okay.
If you eat now, there goes dinner for you.
If you're that heartbroken over her,
why don't you just go with
her and lie down next to her?
They're going to cremate her.
They don't want to bother
with a cemetery lot,
so those worthless kids
are going to cremate her.
It's nice and clean that way.
I don't want to be cremated.
It's enough to die once.
Why go into that hot fire and die again?
You're dead, so how would
you know if it's hot or not?
How do you know? You've died before?
Just eat. That's enough.
It's boiling.
We have to let it boil for a while.
I can't believe them.
How can the entire group be a no-show
without even a phone call?
You don't have the dates mixed up?
I already told you no.
Don't return their deposit to them.
They didn't show up without any calls.
Could it be they have the dates mixed up?
No matter what, if they left a contact
number, they should be answering it.
Did you write the number down wrong?
I wouldn't have done that but even if I did,
they could be calling here.
If they think it's next week,
there's no reason for them to call.
That's not it.
You can't get through yet?
No. They're not answering, Father.
What's going on?
It's not just one or two, but twelve
people that cancels with no notice.
How can they do this?
Where's your mom?
She went in for a nap.
Did anything else happen after that?
No.
Where is Tae Sub?
Upstairs.
He's going to eat dinner here?
That's what he must be planning.
Are you sleeping?
Pardon? No, I'm not.
You're going after dinner?
I may go or not. I'll play it by ear.
It'll be easier on you to go
home and sleep there. Do that.
How's Mom?
She's sleeping.
What did Ji Hye say?
She must have thought a lot
about him all this time.
She said she was going to wait until she was
forty, and if he still didn't look her up,
she was going to go and find him herself.
Don't let that upset you.
There's a spot that can't be filled
no matter what anyone does.
No, of course not.
I just feel sorry for her.
Anything else?
Not really.
She thinks Mom solved the
problem with me cleanly,
but made a mess with hers.
How immature. She doesn't know half of
half of what's in Mom's heart.
I'm sure she'll work it out.
Just give her some time.
Yes. I'm sure she will.
She's smart, so I'm sure she will.
What are you doing?
I'm making rice.
Don't do it.
How can you make dinner
in the mood you're in?
If you don't want to go to the big house
for dinner, I said I'll go get something.
You don't have anything to cook.
I do.
What are you going to make?
What are you going to feed us?
Potato ham stew.
Go to the kitchen downstairs
and bring me some green onion.
They should be in the produce box.
And some kimchi.
Instead of the kitchen downstairs,
it'll be better to go to the big house.
Just make the stew. I'll go and see
what's there and bring some back.
If you want.
I told you I didn't want you to cook,
so I don't know why you're insisting.
How about going out to eat?
Let's go have a course meal
at a Chinese restaurant.
Daddy, really?
Do you think I'm in the mood to
enjoy a course meal anywhere?
Honey.
I feel like I'm going crazy so I have
to do something, even if it's cooking.
Don't make me talk and just
leave me alone. Please!
Go. Get away from me.
Go and play your video game.
Yes, this is Bul Lan Ji Pension.
Yes.
Oh, yes!
Yes, we didn't receive any calls,
so we were...
Yes.
Oh, goodness!
Yes.
How could something like that happen?
I understand.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes. Please call us back.
Yes.
Yes.
What happened, Father?
Right before they got on the plane,
one of the members passed out unconscious.
He's in surgery and the rest of the
members are all waiting there.
Is he in danger?
I'm sure they don't know that yet.
They'll find out when they
finish the surgery.
Yes, Hyungboo.
Dinner's all ready here.
Yes.
Okay, I got it.
That's just her fate in life, so what
good will throwing a tantrum do for her?
She has an angel for a stepfather,
and angels as relatives.
We all did as much as we could for her.
Don't worry about her.
That girl doesn't know how to be grateful.
What are you saying?
All you have to do is tell her to shut up
and straighten up her attitude.
There's no reason for Hyungsoo-nim
to be lying down like that,
and you to be dragging your chin.
In all honesty, is this a bigger deal
that this kid being gay?
Even that didn't make you
two go down like this.
Oh, is that the difference?
Because she's not his birth mother?
Yes, right. That's it.
Leave.
Why?
Leave.
I only spoke the truth.
Hearing the truth can be painful.
I said leave!
You're so sensitive.
Tae Sub, I didn't say that because
I have any hard feelings.
I only stated the truth as the truth.
Yes, Uncle.
Why aren't there any honest
people in this house?
Dad, do you want some fruit?
I don't feel like it.
Oppa, drink your tea.
Okay, I'll be right there.
Should I wake Mom up?
Leave her alone.
She must be hungry.
Did the stew turn out okay?
- I'll do that for you.
- It resembled your stew.
Mom, go sit down. Go sit.
You didn't leave?
I don't have to go.
Kyung Soo's gone?
He's here.
Hurry up. I don't need anything else.
Just give me rice and the stew.
One minute, Mom. The stew will
just take minute to warm up.
Okay.
Did you get some sleep?
I did. The soju was a big help
in putting me to sleep.
Have you heard from Big Uncle?
No. He hasn't called.
I haven't received a call from him yet.
Did anyone take a call from Big Uncle?
- No.
- No.
Go upstairs and get your
things together to leave.
I'm fine.
Even if you stayed, you'll just be
upstairs to study then go to sleep.
Save your time in the morning. Go.
Yes, go home. I told you the same thing.
Do you need anything? Some water?
No.
Did you do it so I don't
have to do them over?
I did my best, but I don't know
if it'll pass your inspection.
What are you going to do about Seoul?
When do you want to go?
Won't it be better during vacation?
I sent a text message.
I haven't heard back yet.
Maybe they're thinking what's the point now?
I doubt that.
If that's the case, there's nothing
I can do about it.
After what Mom did.
They have feelings, too.
If they won't accept me,
I have to end it here.
I don't want to get mixed
up with that family myself.
There's no reason for it.
I just want to go see Dad's resting
place, but if I can't even do that,
I have no choice but to even give that up.
I don't think that's the reason.
They're probably exhausted from the funeral.
How much energy does it take to
reply back to a text message?
They could be emotionally drained
and feeling exhausted from that.
I must really love you.
Just like you eat rice every day
and not give it much thought,
it's already been eight years for us.
I think I lived every day through habit
without having any special thoughts.
But earlier, when I heard
what happened to you,
I wondered how much pain
you must be feeling,
and it felt like someone ripped
out a rib from my insides.
Isn't that love?
Even if you go to the movies
with another woman?
How can you ruin a moment
like this that way?
I told you I'll keep it up
until the day I die.
You are really brutal.
Father, then...
Okay. Go on.
Yes.
Grandmother, I'm leaving.
Okay.
Don't worry too much.
I'm not worried.
It's not possible for anyone other
than me to know what's inside me.
We have to accept that and live on.
I don't know everything about Ji Hye, and
Ji Hye doesn't know everything about me.
I don't know everything about you, and
you don't know everything about me.
Right?
Yes.
But I have faith in you.
I have that now.
I'm so grateful.
I succeeded.
Do you want me to give you a hug?
Oh, that would be nice. Very nice.
Thank you, son.
I'm grateful and happy.
Not even 800,000 Won?
You can't pay even 800,000 Won?
Uncle, to junk it, you have to pay
them 300,000 or 400,000 to do it.
Just give up on it.
How can I give up when I have to pay
280,000 Won in repairs right away?
For repairs, 280,000 Won.
To junk it, 300,000 to 400,000 Won.
You have to spend at least 600,000 Won.
You're really tough.
Why won't you listen to me?
Just park it, and use it to go to
the orchard, or when you come here.
Wow, two cars? You're a rich man, Uncle.
This kid!
Then we'll borrow it occasionally, Uncle.
Fine.
If you subtract 280,000 from 800,000,
how much is left?
520,000 Won.
520,000 Won. That's cheap, really cheap.
Just give me 520,000 Won and take it.
We really don't need a car.
Are you saying you won't pay
even 520,000 Won for it?
Having a car just increases expenses.
You guys are so cheap.
Just pay for the repairs and take it.
It's free. Completely free.
You guys are really something.
You two are just alike.
You're just alike.
What if someone sees us?
Why am I especially happy to see you today?
It feels like it's been a hundred
days since I've seen you.
Why didn't you wait inside?
I wanted to see you that much quicker.
That's a comment used by players.
What happened at home?
Did things quiet down?
Mom's better.
I didn't see Ji Hye before I left.
I'm sure she'll be fine soon.
Things don't last long in my family.
Things get hot and cool down quickly.
Why don't you put some coffee on?
Okay. That's the opposite of my family.
My family must be the kind to simmer.
It could be a minor thing and
take two weeks to get over.
And I threw a bomb at a family like that,
so what else could have happened?
Not easy to get over.
Something seems different about you today.
You seem much lighter hearted.
You feel it? You see it?
I feel it.
Come here.
What I said to my father in the email,
he answered me in person.
He gave me his acknowledgement.
I misunderstood him asking me
to take care of the family.
He told me I didn't need to
say anything more to him.
He told me to live my life as I wanted.
Your mother?
She didn't put up a big fight.
I think my father was right in that she
was halfway there to accepting me.
- Congratulations.
- To both of us.
There you go again.
What?
Don't do it. I said don't do it.
Honey.
They sent a reply.
"It was good to hear from you, Ji Hye."
"I want to see you immediately,"
"but we are staying home until
the mourning period is over."
"Would you come see us, even tomorrow?"
"Please call when you've
made your decision."
"I'll be waiting."
"Your aunt."
Honey.
Reserve seats on tomorrow's first flight.
I told you don't yell.
I told you don't yell.
I didn't yell.
You did.
I'm trying, Cho Rong.
I still sound like I'm yelling?
Tone it down even more.
I'm determined to fix it.
It's not that big a deal
that you have to fix it.
I said I end up yelling because of you.
Do you like when people stare at us?
That's because you're so pretty, you dummy.
You're getting loud again!
Ah, really.
Cho Rong, I love you.
Lower it even more.
Cho Rong, I like you.
Even more.
Cho Rong, I want to kidnap you.
What did you just say?
I just finished playing Go/Stop
with Grandmother.
She was upset because I
won 3,200 won from her.
You should go easy on her.
What kind of a granddaughter are you?
She doesn't like it when I go easy on her.
You don't know how keen her senses are.
She glares at me if she thinks
I'm letting her win.
She said she would rather lose a few
thousand Won than have her pride hurt.
Don't brag that you're good when it's only
your grandmother you're playing against.
I thought about it, and I think it's
just false pride, and I can't trust it.
Have you ever played with anyone
other than your grandmother?
No.
See? I knew it. I just knew it.
Tomorrow?
Yes. I reserved seats on the first flight.
I see.
If she wants to go, she should.
I'm also...
Of course you should go with her.
Go. She'll need to go to be
able to put this behind her.
Yes. I think she needs that, Father.
What about dinner?
Of course. What time is it?
I'm talking about Ji Na's mom.
Oh. Yes, she did.
A little more than half.
She left just a little bit.
I see.
You love it that much?
I do. Loving it isn't taxed.
How can they tax even that?
I wondered where the sound was coming from.
I wish someone will give me a
gift certificate for gas.
I want to go for a drive, but too
afraid of the cost of gas.
If we win the lotto,
you buy a car like that one.
That's a really nice car.
It feels like it becomes one with my body,
a part of my body and no longer a car.
I heard the better cars are like that.
But I can't get rid of my old car
and it's driving me crazy.
What? What is it, Uncle?
A s.. s.. squirrel. Go away, squirrel!
Go away! Go away!
It's not going! It's not going away!

Where did your mother go?
When did he leave?
She should tell me when
she's leaving or coming.
This is the kind of trouble he causes,
just like this.
I'm calling because I have something to say.
This place doesn't seem to use good oil.
This isn't right. The batter isn't right.
If you're going to take the crust
off of fried chicken,
why not eat braised chicken
and not fried chicken?
Oh, man!
If I stay down, it affects
everyone at Bul Lan Ji.
Up, up, up.
Up, up, up, up.
If you don't feel good, just
go ahead and not feel good.
Do you have aged kimchi?
Make kimchi stew for me.
I wish you understood what's in my heart.
You think I'd marry you
on a bet over a game?
You're getting off easy. A one second kiss.
Close your eyes.
He thinks I'm after his money.
I don't have any thoughts of it,
but he keeps saying I'm
there to steal his fortune.
We may not get married.
I'm not sure, Hyungsoo-nim.
I wonder if this winter
will be warm or cold.
