ALL CHARACTERS, PLACES, COMPANIES, AND INCIDENTS

IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

-They're not doing great. -That's right.

-A base hit. -Good.

SUMMER OF 1995

Gosh, don't they know how to toss balls around?

I mean, come on.

Forget it.

What's the point of winning an event game?

This way our pitcher won't strain his shoulders.

Right.

Mom, let's clink our glasses.

Jun, eat up. Isn't it great?

-Eat as much as you want. -Okay.

Here comes the fourth player.

SAMJUNG DEPARTMENT STORE COLLAPSES OVER 100 PEOPLE BURIED IN THE DEBRIS

This is breaking news from the scene of the accident.

Constant sounds of sirens and screams

are heard everywhere at the site.

Everyone who managed to escape the collapse

was covered in blood.

At the moment, the official death toll reached 97,

and the number of the injured reached 922.

Here are the names of the additional victims who have been confirmed dead.

Park Mi-jeong, Kim Cheol-su,

Lee Myeong-hun, Yun Jae-jeong, Kim Jung-bae, Song Eun-jeong,

and one unidentified individual at Hyeonseong Hospital.

There are seven in total.

However, based on the employees and witnesses' statements,

there were at least 100 to 400 people

in basement level one at the time of the collapse,

so the actual death toll...

My mom is

under the collapsed department store.

-I want my coffee. -Yes, ma'am.

Please save my mom's life.

The rescue workers are doing their best.

I told you to wait just a little longer, didn't I?

Trust the rescue workers and eat.

Yes, count on them that they will rescue your mom

and just eat your food.

You haven't eaten anything since yesterday.

Come, now.

So, are you enjoying your barbecue?

Yes, I am.

The housekeeper did a very good job.

-Ma'am, can you fix a meal for Kang-- -How do you expect me to eat?

My mom

must be stuck in the dark, without even a sip of water to drink.

I keep thinking about that,

and I just can't eat.

All right. Don't eat if you can't eat.

Don't force yourself.

Even if something about Su-hui comes up,

don't bother to prepare a funeral.

If it becomes public,

it will just be something people would gossip about.

Okay, Mom.

Jun, eat up.

We'll need to collect all of your mom's belongings

and burn them.

If we don't, her soul might not be able

to move on or rest in peace

and linger in this world as a ghost.

She should've just continued to live quietly in Wando.

Why did she come to Seoul?

Ma'am.

What is it?

Please burn these, too.

What is it? Isn't that chocolate?

You used to give up sleep to have chocolate, boy.

Why burn them and not eat them?

I won't have chocolate

ever again.

Why not?

If I eat them,

I'll want to

go back to Wando.

What do you mean?

I want real food.

Please fix me a meal.

Eat slowly. No one's going to steal your food.

You had nothing but water for three days.

If you suddenly gorge yourself like that, you'll get a tummy ache.

After all, I think I'm the one who's lost, Min-seong.

I thought I was going the right way.

EPISODE 9

Will I be able

to find my way again?

First they give me shit, and now they show me love.

Your hand.

Is it this hand?

The one that doesn't listen to you.

Yes.

Have a seat.

How's the rehab?

I'm doing my best.

Thanks to you saving that doctor's wife,

the public has become much more friendly towards us.

The hospice

has become a hotbed of horrible crime,

so even those civic groups and organizations

that were against us shutting it down will be quiet for a while.

Well done.

From now on,

We're going to get rid of that useless hospice

and replace it with the best silver town

for limited members, with a quality

that this country has never seen before.

I want you to be in charge of that place.

I can't trust the others.

If you help me shut down the hospice

and make my long-cherished ambition come true,

I will wholeheartedly trust you

and even pass down Geosung Foundation to you.

Okay?

SON

He's driving me nuts.

He even turned his phone off.

Where the hell is he?

This is an emergency!

Gosh.

HUBBY

DON'T ANSWER

Take it. Why won't you answer it?

Isn't it your wife?

Hey, why are you wearing your sunglasses indoors?

If you're embarrassed that people might recognize you,

just take it off.

They'll stare even more, thinking you're a lunatic.

Gosh, I don't know if this is clean.

What is this? What the...

It's a cockroach!

What the hell?

Can't you tell the difference between a cockroach and a fruit fly?

It's gone now, dig in.

What? Hey.

Did you just dip your spoon you used

into my soup?

What kind of savage are you?

I'm so grossed out.

You know what? Just take it all.

It's been 30 years since we met,

and you just had to pick a restaurant that's as messed up as you.

What's wrong with this place?

Hey, this is a famous restaurant that's been around for 80 years.

My, it's delicious.

By the way, why did you want to see me out of the blue after 30 years?

You didn't even talk to me back in the old days.

Hey, did you talk to me so casually even back in the day?

I'm two years older than you.

Age doesn't really matter once you start working.

You and I started interning at Geosung Hospital

in the same year, you know.

All because you graduated two years late

due to your bad grades.

Watch it, prick.

So, why did you want to see me out of the blue?

Why would such a nobleman like you

need to see this lowborn man?

You see,

I did

a little research on everyone around me.

I came to the think that you were the least fortunate.

So I figured seeing you would comfort me.

What?

It really is comforting.

Even someone like you is moving on with your life,

so why can't I?

You're giving me so much courage.

When I go back,

I'll work very hard.

Hey, let's be honest.

Isn't it rare to meet someone get struck by multiple misfortunes as you did?

You divorced your first wife,

and your second wife died after giving birth

to your son.

Then your only child also--

Stop.

If you don't want this hangover soup,

go to some fancy restaurant that you like

and get yourself a steak or something.

Gosh.

Right. I heard from Sang-sik

that your first wife who had left you for another man

came back with Alzheimer's.

How could she have the audacity to come back?

Is she a salmon or what?

Don't you dare talk about that woman, you asshole!

Gosh, there's no need to get angry.

Goodness.

Cha-young!

Ji-yong.

-Mom! -Ji-hun.

Sharala, you miss him too, right?

I do too.

Ye-sol.

Dr. Lee!

What brings you here?

Are you here with your mom?

No, I'm here to check in on Ji-yong's turtle.

Her name is Sharala.

It's a turtle Ji-yong used to look after.

He asked me to take care of her

when he isn't around.

Where's your mom?

She suddenly collapsed.

She's in the ICU at the moment.

They inserted tubes

into her nose and throat.

She won't even wake up. She just keeps sleeping.

When we were here,

we used to

have yummy food together

and chat, too.

It was nice.

Ye-sol!

Oh, Min-yong!

There you are, Dr. Lee.

I left some for you in your office.

Try it before we serve it at dinner.

It's Manila clam pancake.

My mom is very good at opening Manila clams.

This is for you.

Wow, it looks delicious.

Does your mom work at the cafeteria now?

No, she's just helping out.

She's not that good at other things, so she'll just deal with clams.

She wants to thank the people here for making Ji-yong happy before he left.

Dr. Lee, I think Ji-yong safely returned to the planet he came from.

This is so good.

My mom said she saw him in her dream last night.

She says he looked very happy there,

worrying about peace on Earth from time to time, too.

I'm glad to hear that.

I thought he was lying when he said he was from another planet,

but I guess it was true.

Why are you crying?

My mom

likes Manila clam pancakes too.

I want to take some to her,

but she's in the ICU now,

so she can't eat anything.

TODAY'S DINNER MENU CLAM PANCAKE, CLAM PORRIDGE

The Shiitake mushrooms, bell peppers,

and zucchini should be minced.

Put the pre-soaked rice

into the clam broth and bring to boil.

Then when the broth simmers down,

add more broth.

Like this. After that,

put in all the minced vegetables.

Yes.

Put in all the vegetables and...

After that...

After that...

What's the next step?

Try to remember it.

You made two pots of it earlier.

I'm asking because I don't know.

I don't remember what's next.

Still, you need to try to remember it.

Don't give up.

Gosh.

Make broth with clams.

Then mince all the mushrooms and vegetables.

Put the pre-soaked rice

into the clam broth and bring to boil.

Boil them together and...

After that...

After that...

After that...

Damn it.

I won't remember it until I die.

Just think that I don't exist.

I don't care what happens here. Do everything yourself!

Gosh, seriously!

Director Kwon,

what are you doing here?

Are you trying to poop?

No, I'm trying to take a piss.

We can smell the pancakes from the ward.

It'd better be good.

-What is it? -A parcel.

It's for you.

I can eat one, right?

My gosh. If I gain weight, it's all your fault.

SENDER: LEE JUN

This really is all your fault, not mine.

I remembered it!

I remembered it.

It's clam porridge,

so it needs clams!

I'm such an idiot. Goodness.

Just like red bean buns need red beans.

It's so obvious.

What got to my head, Alzheimer's?

Hold on, I actually have that.

I even remembered that I have Alzheimer's.

I'm doing pretty well today.

It's good.

Do you want a bite?

Yes!

-Say "Ah." -"Ah."

It's so good.

Would you like to try it too?

No, it's okay. Don't mind me and just enjoy it.

If we add a spoonful of sesame oil,

it'll be even more delicious.

Hold on, I remember we had some pressed yesterday.

Wait.

Where did it go?

She's a lot to take, isn't she?

-I'll take a few of these pancakes. -Sure.

Gosh, I'm going to blame you if I gain weight.

Ta-da.

What's up?

Where are you, beloved sister?

-Hurry! -What is it now?

I have to go make dinner.

That is not important now.

This might totally transform your evening.

What are you talking about?

Look. Just look!

Another dream car of mine

is here.

It's beautiful, like decalcomania.

What about it?

It's even better than this one,

because that one is a newer model than this one.

-So what? -And on top of that,

the owner of this baby knows nothing about my embarrassing past.

Not a single ill-fated encounter with me,

which means no biases against me.

Let's change our target.

What?

I've done some thinking.

Marrying your first love?

Come on, you know that's weird.

I know someone who married her first love.

She has an injury that requires four weeks to heal,

and the guy is seeing a bonesetter because of his dislocated bones.

Tae-hyun! If you're here to spew such nonsense, just go--

Yes, ma'am, I already washed my feet

and got plenty of sleep.

Please, my beloved sister.

Cha-young, please!

You said Kang has no interest in you whatsoever!

I actually happened to meet the owner of that baby earlier,

and I thought he was my twin brother.

He's too sexy for his own good, just like me.

He's unnecessarily handsome,

and he's...

Which one will be my brother-in-law?

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe Catch a tiger by the toe

If he hollers, let him go Eeny, meeny, miny, moe

Moe!

From now on,

We're going to get rid of that useless hospice and replace it

with the best silver town for limited members, with a quality

that this country has never seen before.

Of course, we need doctors that save lives.

But I think there should also be doctors

who can accompany patients until the end so that they can end their lives in peace,

even when they are unable to continue their treatment.

Thank you for coming with me

to pick raspberries.

Thanks to you saving that doctor's wife,

the public has become much more friendly towards us.

When we were here,

it was nice.

She's not that good at other things, so she'll just deal with clams.

She wants to thank the people here for making Ji-yong happy before he left.

Excuse me.

Wait.

I want to avoid her.

But she makes me feel worried.

And I can't get her out of my head.

Oh, Dr. Lee Jun?

He's doing community service in our hospital

for assaulting Professor Jung.

Was it 120 hours or 200 hours?

If Dr. Lee didn't beat him up,

I would've killed him.

That's it, I quit.

Mr. Im Seok-jo from Room 207 wants to play

basketball with me,

but I'm not feeling very well these days.

Hey, you should do it.

You know him, right?

He used to play in the national basketball team.

Do your best. The winner gets instant noodles.

Good luck.

Good luck.

Gosh. Oh dear.

You should go stop him.

At this rate, there won't be anything left.

You're not supposed to cut them in half like that.

You should pick off the anchovy's head like this first.

Then, you split the belly open

and pull its guts out.

Do you want to see it again?

Pick off the head first,

split the belly open,

and pull out its guts.

You should try.

Good. That's how you do it.

I'll do these again.

And about the plate that you sent us a while back,

I wanted to thank you for that.

It's good to see you like this...

I'm not supposed to say this, am I?

It's better than criticizing or sympathizing with me though.

Good to see you too.

I didn't mean to criticize you.

So you sympathize with me.

I did feel bad for you.

I mean, about the situation.

Anyway, it doesn't mean you don't sympathize with me.

I'm telling you this as someone who has lived as an object of pity.

I don't think sympathy isn't all bad.

It means you mean something, at least,

to the person who sympathizes with you.

-Hello. -Hi.

Are you done preparing the anchovies?

As you can see, I'm still working on it.

I just got a call from Geosung University Hospital in Seoul.

They asked me to take good care of you.

I have nothing to do with it.

I know.

I guess it was an order from higher up

or someone trying to show excessive loyalty to you.

Of all places,

you came to our hospital for your community service.

So I assumed that you have some good connections.

I suppose that's an innuendo.

Well, I didn't mean it that way.

What I mean is

that such things won't work for me,

and that everything

will be carried out fairly and according to principle.

-Also-- -I know what you mean.

That's enough.

I was going to tell you that your work is over for the day.

Don't forget to punch out.

Tomorrow morning, you will wash bedclothes and gowns like you did today

and work in the kitchen again in the afternoon--

He's a handful.

Bye.

Is everything going well?

To get rid of this hospice.

I heard Grandma made a promise to you.

If you shut this hospice down,

she will leave Geosung with you.

I know. That's what she said.

Do people in this hospital know that?

That you're hatching a wicked plot

with an innocent face like that.

How would they know?

It's a wicked plot like you said.

People shouldn't know.

What if I stop you?

Go ahead and stop me if you can.

Did I just hear thunder?

I heard there would be a shower in the evening.

Come here.

Right, so just live with your stupid dog as if you're dead.

Why must you get on my nerves?

Dad, leave Kang alone from now on.

You didn't have to send him to Libya like the biggest coward

because I could've totally beaten him.

I could've crushed him with my skills.

Stop it!

Just what the hell are you doing?

Let her apply it.

You're a doctor. Why are you being so stubborn?

You want scars, is that it?

Stay still.

This would take about six weeks to heal completely.

Your jaw is all red. You got a blow here, didn't you?

I guess Dr. Lee Kang has a heavy punch.

I'm stronger than him.

He got beaten up worse than me.

You must be proud.

Here you are, doing community service for assaulting a man,

and having yet another fistfight with another doctor.

Do you want an award certificate or something?

What are you waiting for?

Wash up or you'll catch a cold.

Are you a teenager or what?

Is it a stormy period of puberty?

You weren't like this even when you were a kid.

We fought like this as a kid.

So? Do you want to fight him again?

Yes.

"Yes"?

That's just our fate.

We need to fight until either of us win.

For what?

The winner gets Geosung?

Fine.

If that's your goal in life, you should fight him.

Fight him to death.

I hope you win

and take that Geosung bullcrap with you when you die.

It will be very heavy, but make sure to bring it with you.

Those who passed away here

have taught you those lessons with their whole lives.

But is this what you've learned?

Please take me to the parking lot.

I thought you went home.

Let me hold the umbrella.

This is a small umbrella.

Where's your car?

I don't have a car. I ride my bike.

Since it's raining, I'll take the bus.

I'll drive you then.

It's okay.

I can still take the last bus.

Save your bus fare.

It's for saving me from the rain.

Let's go.

It stopped raining.

I'm still going to drive you home, so just stay in the car.

It's late anyway.

And there might not be a bus.

Then I guess

I'll just make myself comfortable.

Thank you.

What's the matter?

Did we do something wrong?

I'm not sure. I wonder what we did wrong.

Maybe he's jealous.

-What? -No, it's nothing.

That driver must be in a hurry.

I think he wants us to switch lanes.

I don't care. I'm not budging.

Did you hurt your wrist?

I hurt it while I was beating Kang up.

What?

I got beaten up too, you know.

Here and here.

Here and here.

Why did you guys fight?

If I were you, I'd be extremely grateful.

If it weren't for him, Ms. Kim Hui-ju--

Let's not talk about that.

INCOMING CALL

Hello?

Dr. Lee.

I'm Ye-sol's father.

Dr. Lee Kang saved Ms. Kim Hui-ju.

I told you not to talk about that.

Ms. Moon.

You don't even know Kang that well.

-You don't know how evil and wicked he is. -I do know him.

-You do? -Yes, I do.

I know that he isn't someone you can criticize, badmouth,

and judge however you want.

Listen to me, Ms. Moon.

Thank you for the ride. I'll walk from here.

I'm sorry.

I was stupid and thoughtless.

She wanted to stay at the hospice.

But I forced her to leave.

I have no authority over this.

Please talk to the director.

My goodness.

Don't cry.

It's a good thing.

I'm sorry, Seong-cheol.

I know I couldn't have afforded to raise the both of you,

but I never should've let you go.

Did the Americans starve you and mistreat you

because you spoke a different language and looked completely different?

Is that why you got this horrible illness?

I was happy.

I was happy.

My mom and dad

-both loved me. -Okay, okay.

Okay, I understand.

It's a relief that you met rich parents, at least.

My mom and I don't even have a place of our own.

My goodness.

-Mom. -Yes?

I really wanted

to meet you.

Thankfully...

-Yes, what is it, dear? -I missed you a lot.

A lot.

I missed you.

Yes, of course.

Yes, I get what you mean. I understand.

My goodness, what are we going to do?

My goodness.

So that's what Michael wanted to eat.

The pork must've been added to the sauce when the kimchi was initially made.

We normally add pork separately.

That's why her kimchi stew tastes so different.

Can I try some as well?

What is she saying?

I can't speak English. Speak Korean, okay?

She says she wishes to try some.

Here.

I bet it tastes a thousand times better than your food.

My goodness, what in the world did you feed my son?

My gosh.

It must be spicy for you, is that okay?

It's fine.

I'm just very curious about this food

because Michael really wanted to try it.

Wait a minute. I'll give it to you in another bowl.

It's fine. Don't worry about it. It's okay.

I make the best kimchi stew in Korea.

Try some.

It's the kimchi stew that you've been craving.

It'd be great if Seong-cheol and I could enjoy this kimchi stew

along with some soju.

You know what? Let me go get a bottle of soju right now.

He can't drink.

I know that.

I'm just joking around because I'm really glad

to see my brother again.

How does it taste? It's good, isn't it?

It tastes exactly the same, right?

Yes, it's good.

Nice.

Your wish finally came true.

How are you going to repay her?

Stop talking nonsense.

Do you want some rice?

My baby Seong-cheol used to love it

when I mixed his rice with my kimchi stew.

No, it's okay.

Have some more.

Two regular-sized double cheese cheesesteak sandwiches, please.

With what kind of bread?

-White bread for me. -Wheat bread for me.

Dr. Lee.

Are you also here to eat a sandwich?

We agreed to meet here today.

That was yesterday.

I told Cha-young that I got stood up by you yesterday,

and that's why she came here to buy me a sandwich instead.

It was yesterday? I thought it was today.

LUNCH WITH MIN-YONG, 16TH

You're right.

I'm sorry. I got confused because I was so busy.

You should join us since you're here.

She's right. You should join us.

How is that going to make them clean?

Put some effort into it.

Gosh.

I'm sorry. The washing machine just happened to malfunction today.

Are you sure you didn't break it on purpose?

My goodness, that's nonsense.

We have nothing against you.

The repairman is planning to come tonight.

So the washer will work again starting from tomorrow.

I got a call. I should get going.

I'm going to come back to check.

What do you want?

I'll wash the blankets.

You, my man, can sit here and relax.

Fortunately,

there are no CCTVs here.

Who are you?

From now on, I'll help you clean, do the laundry, and bathe the patients.

I'll do all your work for you

in the blind spots where there are no CCTVs.

You just need to make sure you punch the clocks on time--

I asked you who you are!

I'm Tae-hyun. Moon Tae-hyun.

You see, my sister works here

as the chef in the cafeteria.

She thinks it's nonsense that you're here doing these kinds of stuff.

So she told me

that I should come and help you out.

-I don't need your help. Get lost. -If you want me to get lost,

I'll get lost.

If you ever need my help,

please give me a call.

Crazy bastard.

Hey.

You're awfully rude to a stranger. You don't even know me.

I mean, now that I look at you,

I can pretty much tell what kind of person you are.

Judging by your nasty and mean personality,

you'll obviously mistreat my sister and look down on her.

Gosh, it's making me get angry.

I will never let that happen

even if it means I have to ride buses for the rest of my life.

My gosh, this really pisses me off.

I bet you're not even that rich.

I mean, how am I supposed to know if that car is really yours

or if you just borrowed it from someone else?

My goodness.

I know guys like you.

You're here to do community service.

And starting from head to toe, you're wearing designer clothes.

My gosh, I know that this is all fake.

But I'll keep it a secret.

So just make sure you clean the blankets nice and clean.

And don't forget

to get rid of this stain right here.

Sir.

Also, people might slip and fall.

So once you're done with this, make sure you do a proper job

when you wash the soap off the ground.

Sir.

Hey.

My gosh, he did it again.

I can't believe this.

Listen to me. My name isn't "Hey."

I told you already that my name is Moon Tae-hyun.

I get that you're Moon Tae-hyun.

Then what's your sister's name?

Do I know her?

You must've been very hungry.

I'm talking about you both.

By the way, what happened to the Zika virus?

Someone has the Zika virus?

Dr. Lee.

He apparently had some symptoms of Zika virus.

Really? You shouldn't be here right now.

You should get a checkup at a hospital and get it treated.

Apparently, the Zika virus can't be treated.

No.

I...

I don't have the Zika virus.

I'm going to be late for school. I'm going to go now.

Text me about the results!

Hey!

See? I'm 36.7°C. My body temperature is normal.

Are you sure this isn't broken?

Here. Do I have a fever?

Fever, rash, and red eyes.

Do you notice any symptoms of Zika virus infection?

Get in.

-You didn't bring a bike. -I can take the bus.

You didn't seem to have any trouble

getting into Dr. Lee Jun's car.

Do you feel uneasy around me?

Are you scared that you might get infected?

I'm sorry. I totally forgot. I'll be right there.

Let's go.

I wasn't worried that I might get infected with the Zika virus.

I was worried that you might really have it.

You've got a lot on your hands.

Come on, get in the car. Hurry.

It's not like I wanted him to give me a ride.

It was raining that night, and I was tired.

And I honestly didn't want to walk

all the way to the bus stop.

But I wasn't really close enough to ask him for a ride.

I hesitated a really long time before I actually got in his car.

I'm just saying.

That's the fact.

GEOSUNG HOSPICE

Thank you for the ride.

It's not like I wanted him to give me a ride.

I hesitated a really long time before I actually got in his car.

I wasn't worried that I might get infected with the Zika virus.

I was worried that you might really have it.

You've got a lot on your hands.

So you just stayed here

and waited for me until now?

I was worried about you.

Subtitle translation by Ja-won Lee

The people here at the hospice

aren't just people who are dying.

They're living their lives here.

And they're cherishing every day that they have.

I know you like someone, Dr. Lee.

Who do you think I like?

HOSPITAL STAFF

I don't like her.

Then why are you blushing and looking so flustered?

What are you talking about? I'm not blushing, and I'm not flustered.

Do you like Kang?

I don't have feelings for Dr. Lee Kang.

He's a doctor I'll always thank for having saved my life.

But it's nothing more or less.
