(Yoo's Fruit Store)

I...

I'm back.

You'll know once you get your memory back...

just how flustering it is...

having you do this to me.

She must have wanted...

to punch my shameless face.

I'm amazed she put up with me...

and stayed with me.

When I was 22,

I felt like my life was over.

I prayed...

for just one reason to live.

(Surim Milk)

That day, she appeared in my life like destiny.

I'll work hard...

so that we can move to a nicer, more comfortable place.

Daddy's home.

Daddy. Did you drive safely today too?

I did.

- Welcome home. - Thanks. Where's Mommy?

- In your room. - In your room.

In our room?

Welcome home.

Ta-da.

Were you crying?

No.

Is something wrong? Did the kids bother you?

I got sad while reading a book.

You cried while reading a book? Like a child?

You teased me when I cried while watching a movie.

The kids are right there.

I wanted her to be as happy as I was,

and to love me as much as I loved her.

("The Bridges of Madison County")

Eun Hee.

What did I do...

to make her leave?

I made a promise...

that if she'd come back, I'll live only as the kids' dad.

(Episode 9)

I heard Dad proposed to you on this day...

and it was the first day he held your hand.

He said he took this picture to remember this day forever.

Mom.

Dad's mistaken, right?

You said you were already pregnant with Eun Joo here.

She couldn't have been born prematurely then.

You said Eun Joo was born later than the due date.

Were you the one...

who was mistaken?

I don't...

understand anything you're saying.

Your father's memory...

is patchy, that's all.

Do you want some braised beef?

You like having my braised beef and stir-fried anchovies...

with your beer.

Mom.

I always wondered...

Why did you...

only take Eun Joo when you left home?

Why didn't you take me?

Back then,

I was younger than you are now.

I didn't know what to do.

Mom. That's not what I asked.

Ever since then, I was so afraid you'd leave again.

I wanted you to take me with you if you did,

so I was always careful not to get on your bad side.

I want to know that there was another reason...

and that it wasn't because you hated me.

I feel bad...

that I was mean to Eun Joo my whole life, that's why.

Right.

When I came back,

I realized that I had scarred you for life.

You used to smile all the time...

and were confident even after causing trouble.

But you started being cautious...

and looked around...

to check where I was.

I'm so sorry.

I was reminded...

of what Dad said at Eun Joo's wedding.

What's wrong with you?

Why do you keep making an angry face?

I'm not angry.

Is it because I'm not as elegant as his family?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I'm not suitable to be Eun Joo's father.

I think...

I now understand...

what he meant.

What do I do?

Just what do I do?

I was going to keep this...

between me and him forever.

What do I do?

Right.

No secret lasts forever.

Who knew your father would suddenly turn 22...

and bring that up?

Give him that picture.

I'm sick and tired of his immaturity.

He's not at fault. I figured it out.

Should I act like I don't know?

Eun Joo is still my older sister. That will never change.

There's nothing to change.

No matter what anyone says, your father is Eun Joo's father.

There's no doubt about it.

If not for that, I wouldn't have put up with him until now.

Eun Joo deserves to know the truth.

Don't let her find out from someone else.

You must...

tell her yourself.

I'm home.

Gosh, what is it this time?

You're not arguing, are you?

Let's get along, please?

What a mess.

Did you...

- hear our conversation? - No.

What were you talking about?

Don't you...

- have anything to tell me? - No.

Have a seat.

You told me how you feel about me, so I should respond.

I drifted apart from my family once I started med school.

I have no friends I can confide in.

You were my only family and friend.

I mean it.

I'm going to go back to work tomorrow.

I'll give you as much time as you want.

Start afresh.

Find yourself a man too.

I just wanted to have a light conversation with you today.

You need a child, a husband, and love.

That's a real family.

You can never have that with me.

You don't need to plan my future so meticulously.

I'll take care of my issues myself.

I decided to be your friend, but it's hard.

It's hard to forgive you too.

But...

if I ignore that one thing, this won't be a big deal.

Because I know it all.

At least I won't be anxious because I don't know.

Wait until I figure out what I want.

You decided by yourself and only notified me.

Don't pressure me.

That's only fair.

Sure.

Do what you want.

We have to reschedule the meeting.

Mr. Im is taking time off.

He just got here. How could he take a vacation?

Maybe he's shacking up with his girlfriend.

Hey, Eun Hee found out.

- What? - About Eun Joo.

I don't know how, but I heard her...

talk with my mom about Eun Joo.

Did she say something to you?

She doesn't know that I know.

Do you really think she doesn't know?

I doubt she knows.

Then she'll ask me about it for sure.

What do you want me to tell her?

Let's just tell her the truth.

But...

I told her not to call you, so I doubt she will.

Why?

Back when you avoided her calls,

I thought it was wrong of her to come to the office.

She's seeing someone, so I told her to keep a distance...

Must she keep a distance from me if she's seeing someone?

And why must she listen to her little brother criticize her?

Is it because you work at my company?

In case you'd become uncomfortable?

You're wrong about that.

That's our business, not yours. Stay out of it.

You're not being punished here. Bring that and come with me.

Leave him be. He has been pulling all-nighters almost every night.

I know.

He gets so many texts these days.

Because he's super popular in the marriage market.

What do you mean?

If you call in response to her text,

you'll just announce that you're old.

Hello, this is Golden Goose Media.

Could I check the director's schedule for today?

Is it possible to pull up our appointment?

A meeting with the publisher?

I see. Okay, bye.

(Hiring Barista)

I think the boss stepped outside for a moment.

Do you want your usual?

I'll take it to go.

Sure.

I'm quitting here soon.

You're not taking it to go because of me, are you?

I'll be gone shortly, so don't worry.

(4pm, Golden Goose Media)

(Monday, June 15)

(Meditation Center)

- Hi, Chan Hyuk. - Hey.

Are you here for the meeting?

Yes, but I thought your meeting is at 4pm.

Right, exactly.

I'm here too early. What should I do by myself?

Will you kill time with me?

Sure.

Let's go.

Did you run all the way here?

No, only once I got close.

I actually wanted to call you a few times last week.

In the middle of the night.

Why didn't you?

Oh, because I told you not to call me for the time being?

It's not like I have to listen to you.

Then why didn't you?

Well, just because.

Is my brother working all right?

Yes.

Ji Woo thinks of you like family.

Same here.

When he was little, he told a lie from time to time.

I didn't think it was good, so I hypnotized him.

That lying is terrible,

but it's okay if he shakes his leg when he lies.

That he wouldn't get punished then.

"Whenever you tell a lie,"

"shake your leg."

Are you his sister or a bully?

Chan Hyuk.

You said he had a concern the other day.

He told you, didn't he?

You know, don't you?

You're so timid.

What's with that face? You obviously know.

And he confided in me, so I know too.

Ji Woo knows.

And because he told me, I know.

It's like I'm a family safe, not a personal safe.

How did he find out? He's usually so clueless.

He heard when your father was being discharged from the hospital.

Still, you always find out before I do.

I guess Ji Woo relies on you more.

You made up with Eun Joo around that time.

There was no way he could tell you.

- Mom. - Eun Joo, let's go.

- What? - Let's go.

Are you looking for someplace?

I liked that cafe earlier.

Some places changed, and some places remained the same.

It's confusing.

You said you had something to tell me. Where are we going?

It's all the same...

I want to tell you an old story.

I wondered where I should tell you,

then I was reminded of the town where I grew up.

It's the first time you mentioned your childhood.

I think it's around here.

There were a few persimmon trees...

in our front yard.

Every fall, the branches drooped...

down to the alley.

Your grandma guarded them with a broom.

When a hungry kid tried to steal a persimmon,

she hit them with the broom.

My mom was...

so spiteful and greedy.

I hated it.

Whenever you told me...

I was cold and spiteful,

I was reminded of my mom.

It was only a few times.

And I said it out of spite.

I hear that more than you do.

Mom.

I've never seen you like this. You're making me worry.

What is it about?

What do you want to tell me?

It's okay. You can tell me.

Let's go.

I always...

took my mom's side,

but I hate her right now.

I get this ridiculous thought in my head...

that maybe Dad and I...

meant nothing to her.

So? Will you always take your dad's side now?

I won't do that anymore.

I'm just going to take my side.

What use is family at this age?

You know,

I heard you had an appointment here today,

so I came early on purpose.

I wanted to pretend...

to run into you.

What's with that look in your eyes?

What?

I felt like I overreacted last time.

I felt like telling a friend to not talk for a while...

was immature.

After I heard from Ji Woo, I got worried about you and Eun Joo.

That's why I ran over.

You look slightly disappointed.

Slightly? It's more than slightly.

I'm very disappointed.

When you said you faked running into me to see me,

my heart skipped a beat.

I considered saying let's stop being friends and asking you out.

Happy? Is that what you wanted to hear?

I wanted to tell you...

something about your dad.

You may not realize it now,

but back then,

a pregnant, unwed college girl...

was a disgrace to the family.

My family was turned upside down,

and my brothers were furious.

They told me...

to abort you...

and live in hiding in a temple somewhere.

But it was my life.

It was my baby.

I...

chose you.

Back then,

an unwed, pregnant student...

had nowhere to go.

The 22-year-old girl who wanted to save her baby...

even after being abandoned by her family and the baby's father...

becomes family...

with the 22-year-old boy you had been in love with her...

for a long time.

Eun Joo. Say something.

Say what?

I never even imagined I'd hear something like this.

I wanted to keep it a secret forever.

We would've if it weren't for your father's accident.

I'm not a child. I'm not a pubescent teen.

I guess it's a good thing I found out now.

What does age matter?

Am I...

supposed to ask about my birth father?

No. There's no need.

I... I never thought about him either.

Why not?

That's kind of sad.

Did you even love him?

Did I ruin your life by being born?

No. That's not true.

I... I loved him.

I never once regretted having you.

Thank you...

for not giving up on me, Mom.

I...

told my mom to tell her.

That's why I haven't called...

either of them in a week.

My family...

and I...

and Tae Hyung's family...

are so cruel...

to Eun Joo, don't you think?

I learned something from you.

That even if you see your family all the time and you know them well,

you still have to put in the effort.

You give your all when it comes to your family.

I really liked that about you.

You put in effort for people.

Your relationship with Jong Min...

was partially due to your effort and nosiness.

It's true.

You're a pretty good person.

Don't blame yourself for everything.

- Bye. - Okay. Later.

(Meditation Center)

[VIU Ver] tvN E09 'My Unfamiliar Family' "No Secret Lasts Forever" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥- Synced with Subcake Android

You sacrificed...

so much in life because of me.

I didn't sacrifice anything.

When we lived in the tiny studio,

I was so happy because of you.

Your dad...

adored you to death.

He even drove through the night...

just so he could see you.

That's true.

Did he even adore me?

I'm not so sure.

It's true.

If not for that,

I wouldn't have stayed with your father until now.

He isn't my father.

"Birth father" and "your father"...

It's all a bit confusing.

You must be tired. You should go home and rest.

I need some time to think.

Bye.

Look over there, Gun Hee.

You look so cute.

Where's Uncle?

- Look here. Look at Uncle. - No, no.

He's tired.

- Goodness. - Just a minute.

How many did you grab already?

Isn't this fraud? Why are they taking pictures with each item?

Aren't you supposed to grab only one item at a doljabi?

The future will be even more about story-telling than now.

If he becomes a baseball player,

we'll say he grabbed a baseball for his doljabi.

If he becomes a singer, he grabbed a mic.

We need documentation.

The origin story is key.

Whatever. I don't care.

Where's the cash?

Money is the most important, but it's missing.

You're so superficial. You are way too superficial.

I'll complain about money...

while we create these beautiful stories.

I'm the expert.

But I'll do it later. Our Gun Hee is tired.

Let's take a break.

Sure.

- Let's take pictures of the props. - Okay.

Let's do another doljabi after we take a break.

- Okay. - Sure, let's so that.

Let's focus on the colors.

Hey, Chan Hyuk.

I heard you saw Eun Hee.

Yes.

I feel like a big weight has been lifted now that you met.

You stubborn morons.

I told Eun Hee to come today, but she acted like she was busy.

Still, do you remember the girlfriend's letter contest...

when you were in the army?

Eun Hee wrote a crazy sexy letter pretending to be your girlfriend.

It was not sexy.

It was too!

"Your jawline when you take pictures..."

"Your fingers when you touch the camera..."

Enough.

Why are you turning a first birthday into a reunion?

That sexy letter came in first by unanimous vote,

so he won a six-day leave.

They bugged him like mad to see a picture of Eun Hee.

Hey. She sent you Eun Joo's picture, right?

Didn't you carry her picture in your wallet...

all through your military service as evidence?

So that's what that picture in the wallet was.

You saw that too?

No.

He's very entwined with my family.

Hey. Jong Min, who never really cared about anything,

was jealous of her letter and nagged her like crazy.

That narrow-minded, petty twerp.

You'll never find anyone as broad-minded as I am.

Goodness, Husband. You can't blame him for being jealous of that.

She couldn't have just made that up.

It means Eun Hee...

sneaked a peek at his jawline and fingers when he took pictures.

I said to stop already.

I mean it! Eun Hee...

shouldn't work at a publisher. She should be a writer.

She should've gone out with you, not that jerk Jong Min.

- How's Gun Hee? - He's asleep.

- He is? - He takes after you.

He eats and sleeps.

He keeps eating and sleeping.

- Gosh. - Let's take a picture by ourselves.

- Take a few of us too, please. - Sure.

Smile.

Who's there? You can't be here. You'll get hurt.

Young Shik.

It is you, Young Shik, right?

Father.

Someone said they saw his mom somewhere around here,

so I just came up.

You couldn't remember me, so I couldn't tell you.

The others say I ran off in the middle of the night,

but I plan to go right back once I find her.

Why are you kneeling?

Father.

Why is life so hard?

It's just too hard.

You'll wake him.

A dad shouldn't cry in front of his kid.

Ha Ra was sick.

Sorry I couldn't call or text.

- Is everything okay now? - Yes.

Things are okay.

You should've at least texted that everything was okay.

I heard you fighting over the phone in the middle of the night,

and I didn't hear from you since.

You didn't come to work for a week, so I was worried.

I'm glad things are okay.

I was just leaving.

If you were worried,

why couldn't you contact me first?

Aren't you curious?

Why aren't you asking me anything?

What did you two do for a week?

Why did you stop Ha Ra three years ago...

when she tried to break up with you?

Why do you want to break up now after stopping her back then?

What use it knowing things like that?

Is questioning every little thing,

badgering you to answer me,

and being all emotional what you call a relationship?

I don't do...

childish relationships like that at this age.

We're closed.

Did Eun Joo come today?

She stopped by for takeout earlier this afternoon.

I'm quitting here soon.

Don't lie to people anymore and live a proper life.

You should lie to them just enough.

You don't need to be honest with people who are rude...

and hurt you.

(Eun Joo)

The person you have reached is not available.

Please leave a message...

I worked late all week.

Come to think of it,

I was waiting all week.

1 day, 2 days, 3 days...

As time passed,

I felt more and more at ease, actually.

If you avoid me for a week,

that's more than sufficient grounds for ending it.

Because you'd be the one at fault.

I felt like I wouldn't be responsible.

I felt relieved.

I'm sorry...

for using your hardship as an excuse to end it.

So that was a long time for you.

It was a much harder week than I ever imagined.

I thought you'd understand why I couldn't contact you.

Because I trusted you.

I'm glad you wouldn't secretly contact me...

while you were with someone who was sick and hurting,

and because you are polite...

even when you break up.

That's really what I think.

Let's stop talking for today.

I'll just remember you saying you waited for me for a week.

Sorry.

I've moved on.

I won't do it anymore.

(Tae Hyung)

- Hi, Tae Hyung. - I can't reach Eun Joo.

It's late, but she isn't home.

- Do you know anything? - No.

Did she say she was meeting Mom?

No, she didn't.

Can you ask Mother for me?

Sure. I'll get back to you.

They're like kids raising a baby.

Go home. I'll clean up.

You guys shouldn't have to do this.

Don't act like a boss who's strict about what's in the job description.

We ate too. We can't let you clean up alone.

It's okay. Go home.

I'll do it. I'm the quickest.

- Go home. Go. Go. - But...

Bye.

(Eun Hee: Have you heard from Eun Joo?)

(Have you heard from Eun Joo?)

(Have you heard from Eun Joo?)

When did you come?

You should've called.

Did you wait long?

Tae Hyung called.

You sent Mom alone.

I heard you told her to tell me herself.

You said being alone was poison, but you pushed Mom...

to do something like that alone?

I don't know much about it,

and I wondered if I would be of any help anyway.

Actually, I still don't know the details.

I thought...

you should find out first.

Why should you know the details?

Why do you want to know about people who were never in my life anyway?

Should I get all emotional...

and look for my birth father?

You always said...

we had nothing in common.

You were right.

I must take after my birth father's side more.

Stop talking like a jerk.

Nothing changed for me.

You're still my big sister,

and I'm still your little sister.

Nothing changed.

How did nothing change? Our relationship has changed.

How could it not change?

Did you think about Mom's life?

She was too afraid of people's judgment,

so she endured living with a man she didn't love,

but she can't do it anymore.

I finally found out why she stayed with him. How could it not change?

Dad loved Mom.

We saw the 22-year-old Dad.

You saw his genuine expressions that he couldn't fake or hide.

That was ages ago.

Those expressions probably made Mom sick.

He grabbed and threw anything he could when he got angry.

He scared Mom and made sure she couldn't do anything.

Do you call that love?

- That's assault. - Hey!

Don't exaggerate. Dad is not violent.

You once said you respected him for doing physical labor all his life.

You said Mom was selfish for looking down on him...

when he's just being productive and healthy.

Weren't you the one who always yelled at Mom,

questioning how could he be happy when she always disrespects him?

I didn't know then...

that...

I was Mom's weakness. That's why.

Father used that weakness.

He didn't use it.

Definitely not.

To Dad, you were his real daughter.

You're his real daughter.

I'm not his real daughter.

Real daughter, fake daughter, give me a break.

It must be nice to see only what you want to see...

and interpret it as you wish.

Yes,

I keep myself low and only see what I want to see.

I don't keep my nose so high in the air like you...

that I can't see what's under my feet!

True.

I was too conceited and kept my nose in the air...

and didn't even see my own husband.

You're right.

I have nothing to say.

Family knows pressure points that others can't find...

too well.

They can throw a powerful punch at any time.

What's my problem?

Get up.

Let's go.

I made my sister cry.

I felt like my heart was crumbling.

Eun Joo.

Let go.

Eun Joo. Oh no.

Eun Joo.

Eun Joo.

(A Family Peaceful Through Love)

(Mom)

Are you still up?

What about you?

That's why I picked up.

Eun Hee, I'm...

a little anxious.

Why? About what?

Today...

I saw Eun Joo...

and...

told her everything.

Eun Joo...

Eun Joo...

looked...

Eun Hee.

Please...

go see your sister.

Okay.

Mom.

Yes?

Ji Woo knows too.

He heard Dad when he was leaving the hospital.

She'll sleep for a while. Go home.

This happened...

to her before too.

She suddenly couldn't breathe and...

She sometimes hyperventilates when she's stressed.

Now that we know, we'll get her checked out tomorrow,

and I'll take special care of her for the time being.

For the time being...

Do you mean until...

you break up with her?

Yes.

Eun Hee.

Nothing else happened to her, did it?

No, nothing.

There's nothing else.

She's eating well lately.

- Yes. - She improved.

She's getting much better.

Hello.

Yes, hello.

I need to talk to her.

You can wait if you want.

You can get going.

Okay. See you soon.

How did you find me here?

I remember everything.

I followed you before.

Several times.

You followed me?

I saw the two of you...

get into a car together in front of the fruit store.

When?

About this time last year.

I wanted to run the car over with my truck but fought the urge.

Are you actually insane?

Yes, I was insane.

I had been living my life like a crazy fool!

Why did you put up with me?

You should’ve kicked me out and started over with a nice guy.

Come this way! Come!

Here we go.

Sang Shik.

I heard a lot about you. It’s nice to finally meet you.

He's handsome.

I’m sorry to barge in like this when you’re resting.

I should’ve brought some fruit. I'm sorry I came empty-handed...

You can bring anything, but don't bring fruit.

You never came by when I was at the fruit store.

My husband said he met you there though.

Honey.

I guess Sang Shik is...

very shy.

Did you have to embarrass me like that?

Why did we end up like this?

Is it all my fault?

No. Even if it was all my fault,

couldn't you have explained what was going on?

What for?

Did you ever listen when I did explain?

What could I say...

when you wouldn't even listen?

Fine.

You tell me first.

When did you start hating the sound of my voice?

I really didn’t come to fight today.

I really didn’t come today to fight.

I have one last favor to ask.

I have something to tell you and our kids.

When were you planning to submit this for approval?

The meditation center’s book cover and photos.

You know Golden Goose Media's CEO, Park Chan Hyuk,

is my friend, right?

Just so there's no misunderstanding. The photos are great.

I’m not doing this because he’s my friend or because he bribed me.

The author recommended him too.

He and his company don't know about this yet.

So are you on your way to tell him now?

No.

I have a family meeting today.

Okay, you can go home.

- Where's Tae Hyung? - He's busy.

I see.

I came because you asked me to come.

Today's the last time.

I won't attend family meetings from now on.

Why are you in here?

Why are you in here?

You may not know this but this is my room.

You may not know this but this used to be my room.

Let's go together!

Do you know Chan Hyuk is going on a marriage meeting?

- A marriage meeting? - Yes. I heard he's a popular guy.

His phone is always ringing.

Hey, let's go out!

- Come on! - Stop...

- Welcome home. - Welcome home.

Welcome home.

My eldest daughter.

I'm here.

Come in.

Hurry up and come in!

- Someone else is coming? - I don't know.

We're all family.

I thought we should at least know each other's faces.

Mom!

(Special Appearance: Park Hee Von, Oh Eui Sik)
