Original subtitles

Could you give me a hand?

Okay.

You don't even know what I'll make you do.

Whatever it is.

Mr. Seo told me to get some porcelain dirt,

and it's my first time buying that.

Could you come with me?

Sure. You can find it in Icheon.

There are many stores for that where they sell soil.

That's the kind of information I needed.

How did you think of using a lotus leaf as an umbrella?

What?

It rained on your first day at school.

I saw you walking with that lotus leaf.

Right.

It was sunny in Seoul.

It was raining in Yangpyeong when I got off the bus.

There were no convenience stores around...

but only lotus flowers.

You're really strange.

At first, I only picked it up because the leaf was big.

I even blow-dried my hair, but it got drenched.

I only offered my raincoat because you seemed kind.

I thought you fell head over heels for my beauty.

I mean, you offered your raincoat and got soaked instead.

Right. You're right.

Hey, wait up.

Do you really feel confident that you know everything about her?

No matter who I date, it's none of your business.

Even if she killed someone,

what's important is that I like her.

You don't become a criminal when you get caught...

and stay innocent just because you got away with it.

"A POLICE OFFICER'S MURDER, PLANNED BY HIS WIFE?"

Once you see this, you'll realize you need...

to handle this immediately.

Darn it! Let's just hire someone.

Either hire a cleaning lady or a bookkeeper.

Just go upstairs and study. I never asked for your help.

Why would you go through all this hassle...

if you can just hire someone?

What's the point?

I'll have to fire them once Ye Ji returns.

Are you out of your mind?

Gosh.

Excuse me.

The soil here has softer particles compared to the others.

That's not necessary.

You watched one too many movies.

I want to check if there's a correlation...

between touch and taste.

Only professionals can differentiate them.

A rookie like you wouldn't know.

Hey, this is how you learn.

My father doesn't buy soil.

Then why did he tell us to buy some?

At times, he mixes it in his base.

And he wanted you to buy soil for yourself, not him.

What kind of soil does he use?

He uses soil from all over the country.

At times, he gets them from the mountains.

He also gets some from the paddies...

and nearby brooks.

So that's why the particles were so rough.

He prefers materials that have stories.

I should go soil hunting as well.

"Hunting"?

I need to search for my soil.

Soil hunting.

What is this?

Let's just say that it's a token of gratitude...

for raising Ye Ji all this time.

That's hot!

You clumsy wench. Did you burn yourself?

- I'm okay. - You wench.

Are you two getting married or something?

I doubt your parents would approve.

We're both grown adults.

We don't need their approval.

All right. So you'll do it even if they disapprove.

I'm just saying that we're old enough to make our own decisions.

Then why did you come here?

I don't mind your disapproval,

but I do mind your interference.

We're both parents.

I couldn't bear to just stand still,

so I gave your mother some advice.

Here's your coffee.

Your husband is a famous carpenter.

You know my dad? My gosh.

Hey, don't interrupt us. You little...

He's a subcontractor of our company.

Really?

Wait. What is this?

Are you threatening me?

I could land your daughter a position at our company as well.

Forget it and just bring her back.

I don't know how you convinced her,

but we're the only ones who can put up with her.

She's someone who can't be accepted by anyone but her own family.

Ye Ji has moved out.

If you come to our company...

or torment her again,

I'll take legal action.

Do you think bribing and threatening me...

with legal matters...

will intimidate me and force me to obey you?

How dare someone who's still wet behind the ears...

use money to ridicule an elder?

You better stop this...

while I'm still offering you money.

If I become enraged,

I'll torment you with everything that I got.

I hope we never meet again.

I can't believe Ye Ji found a guy who's exactly like her.

He's amazing.

How much is it?

Mom!

That's my mom's car.

Let me change. Can you put this in the storage?

You should take a break today.

No, I should tend to the soil immediately.

Dinner's ready.

We're having braised tofu.

I've added a lot of anchovies and chili peppers.

It's an extremely tasty dish of ours.

You should eat first. I need to work today.

You should still eat.

I need to prepare the soil before it dries up.

Then should I bring some to your workshop?

That's okay. I'll have some later.

Thank you.

She won't get married anytime soon.

How could she choose work over eating?

I should bring this back to Seoul.

They want you to only use it when you're here.

How cute of them.

They want me to visit often.

That's the best way they can express their yearning for you.

You should pity them.

Enough with the pity talk.

Listen to me and kick that woman out of here.

Don't touch my students.

I gave it a lot of thought before bringing her in.

Do you think they can stop liking her...

when she's around them all the time?

Ms. Oh never expressed her feelings. She's just hardworking.

She either doesn't have a conscience or is just sly.

Does your disapproval even matter?

Our boys don't listen to you anyway.

This is too much. I'd rather her be an orphan.

Do you know what kind of family she has?

Ms. Oh.

Wait.

Did you do a background check or something?

You should watch what you say if you don't know anything.

Stay out of this. This is our business.

She's a good person.

You and your brother aren't in your right minds.

Shouldn't you be impressed by how resilient she was...

despite her family issues?

She's either a cunning scammer or a quick-witted woman.

Is that all you can see in a person?

- Hwan. - Is that the world you live in?

This is exactly why I should've raised our boys.

They lack reasoning since they've lived with you.

Don't you dare touch her.

If you do, I won't stand still.

This is too much. I'd rather her be an orphan.

Do you know what kind of family she has?

Your aunt...

seems to be very worried about you.

You do know what she told me, don't you?

I think...

I do, ma'am.

Then you must know why I don't approve...

of this relationship.

I've never even considered it.

We're not in a relationship,

and I don't have any feelings for him either.

Who are you trying to fool?

He wanted to take responsibility for making you leave home...

and got you a job here.

I chose to become a student here.

And you don't have to worry about anything...

because nothing's going to happen.

I trust you.

Make sure you take care of this.

What's Mom's problem?

It's not like they're in a relationship.

She believes there's something going on between them.

That's absurd. She has no interest in him.

She probably wants to get rid of all possibilities.

Ms. Oh.

Go study.

You do your job,

and I'll do mine.

That one seems darker than the one I bought.

Soil from this area has a lot of iron.

Many people think creating ceramics is a relaxing work of art,

but that's not true.

You need to analyze the ingredients and mix the materials.

It's science.

It's both physically and mentally demanding.

I'm pretty confident when it comes to physical labor.

During the winter, your hands will get extremely chapped.

I did hear that you won't have soft hands anymore.

If you're afraid of that,

then you shouldn't touch soil in the first place.

Hello?

You should put up with her tantrums.

- I won't be coming back this time. - That's not it.

That man came.

He did?

- By himself? - Yes, exactly.

He was so amazing.

He sounded like a gentleman,

but the things he said were frightening.

He said he wouldn't sit still...

if Mom tormented you again.

He wanted her to back off.

He said this and threw her an envelope full of money.

It was insane.

And she took that money?

You know how money hungry she is.

She was complaining the entire time but didn't hesitate to take it.

I think there was quite a bit of money.

She was surprised,

and you know she's not the type to get easily surprised.

Why did you visit my aunt and even offer money?

Do you think you're a knight in shining armor or something?

Don't you remember what I told you?

You're the savior here, not me.

I'm barely managing my own life.

I witnessed...

my dad falling from a cliff.

Jin, no!

No, Jin!

- No! - Dad!

Jin!

I thought he had died.

The person who meant the world to me was dying in front of my eyes,

and there was nothing I could do.

My father lost his leg...

and survived.

But ever since then,

something inside me died.

I'd race, fly,

and do all sorts of things.

But it just wouldn't revive.

I'd like you...

to save me.

Please become the home...

that I'll return to.

Every time I leave,

I feel empty...

as if I have nowhere to return to.

Could you be my anchor?

Your mom visited,

and she's against this.

We're adults.

- We don't need her permission. - That's because...

you don't know about me. Once you do,

you'll want to let go.

I know.

I do know everything about you.

If you keep doing this, I'll have no choice but to leave.

I gave up teaching and left home because I wanted to settle down...

Don't go anywhere.

I'm a selfish guy.

I'm doing this...

for my own good.

This is too much.

I'd rather her be an orphan.

Do you know what kind of family she has?

Ms. Oh.

Wait.

A man died!

And a woman left as if nothing happened after killing a man!

Mom was here.

I know.

Ms. Oh got hurt already.

Don't start anything if you're not going...

to take responsibility.

What if I do?

There are already enough obstacles as is.

Don't be one yourself.

She risked everything to come here.

Do you think I don't know that?

She lived at her aunt's tiny goshiwon all her life.

She had no parents...

and strived to survive by completely isolating herself.

Do you think you can manage?

Fine, so you like her.

What are you going to do about it?

Are you going to date her?

Or marry her? When?

What about university?

What do you have?

Do you know why first loves never work out?

Because everyone's too young.

Focus on studying.

That's what you should be focused on,

not women.

Have you gone insane?

You were always so cowardly.

You say that I'm too young,

but do you think I'll fall for that again?

That's a fact.

Stop it!

- Dad! - Dad.

Stop being a baby.

I'm not. It really stings.

Why did you have to run with crutches?

Why did you have to fight when you're fully grown?

I guess I'm still growing then.

He's much older than you.

How dare you start a fight with him?

I'm sorry.

I'm not the one you should apologize to. It's him.

Go on.

No, Jin. No!

- Dad. - Jin!

Goodness, you're amazing.

- You're amazing. - Thanks.

I'll see you at the top.

You can do it!

- He's so cool. - He is.

It's tough to climb this mountain even with perfectly good legs.

Goodness.

My gosh.

- May I give you a hand? - No, I'm fine.

- All right. - Yes.

It must be tough to do that. He's amazing.

Dad!

Dad!

Are you all right? Are you hurt?

- Give me some water. - Okay.

- Goodness. - Dad, let's go down.

If you're too tired, I'll call the rescue team.

Let's just go down, okay?

Why are you being like this?

I'm sorry, Dad.

I won't fight with Jin anymore.

What are you doing?

This team is over anyway, no?

I said I'll take responsibility.

It's not just about finding a sponsor.

Our team is now branded with dishonor in Korea.

It's not our team. It's just me.

- I'll take care of this. - If we abandon you,

we can survive.

Let Woo Geun stay.

I need a mechanic.

I need a mechanic too.

Are you...

competent enough to lead a team?

Bad news.

I already made a team.

Sorry.

Can we really do this to him?

Let's not worry about the rich kid.

We're different from him.

Will anyone be responsible for us...

if we ruin our lives trying to stay loyal?

Even rich kids get hurt.

He'll be fine after a while,

but for us, we lose our future.

Hwan.

Yes?

I lost...

my legs on a mountain.

At times, something we love...

will take away something that's the most precious to us...

and hurt us beyond repair.

You can't avoid it...

even if you refuse to be hurt.

You should keep...

your first love to yourself.

Time will go by,

and one day, the pain will turn into memories.

Doesn't it hurt?

It does.

You feel like you'll die, right?

Yes.

Life is...

cruel.

Once you overcome this,

you'll find yourself much stronger than before.

I don't need to be like that.

I just want...

you...

and Ms. Oh...

to be happy.

I know you also love your mom and Jin very much.

If you love her more,

even if she isn't yours,

even if you can't have all of her,

one day, you will be grateful...

that she lives under the same sky.

I'm sorry.

This is all I can say to you.

THE NEXT EPISODE WILL AIR SOON

When did you get here?

Do you need help?

Did you drink?

Then don't do anything and just sit there.

Don't break anything.

This is really uncomfortable.

Is something going on?

I can sense it.

I had always been alone,

but it feels awful to be even more alone.

Like becoming the official outcast from the secretive outcast?

Been there, done that.

How did you deal with this?

I turned around without hesitating.

Trying to keep myself sane by saying,

"The world isn't shunning me, I'm shunning the world."

I am...

going to stop racing.

When I get older, I have to stop anyway.

So you'll abandon it first?

My teammates left me.

They couldn't see any future...

working for an incompetent coach...

who couldn't protect them.

People are all weak.

They didn't leave because they hate you.

I'm sure they left out of need.

Just try...

to understand.

Can't it be me?

You can't wait for me, can you?

Hwan.

I know.

But I wanted to ask you one last time.

I'll leave.

I don't want to trouble you anymore.

I can't hurt the people...

who cherish me dearly.

Why didn't you come much later?

After I become an adult.

I met you...

way too early in life.

I'm very happy for that,

but it also makes me angry.

Why didn't you tell me you were coming?

I went out, then had to come out in a hurry.

Honey, what happened?

Look at me.

Did you fall down?

I just fell.

Goodness, use your wheelchair.

You'll get hurt using your crutches.

Even people with good legs fall down at times.

You could've just called me.

Why did you come so far in that condition?

What's this?

UNCONTESTED PETITION FOR DIVORCE

Did Da Woon's mom say she wants to be your wife now?

Stop insulting my good-hearted neighbor.

I'll finish doing the paperwork, divide the property,

and finish bequeathing the inheritance.

Are you trying to ruin our kids?

That's what you use to control them.

There's nothing worse than a parent who controls their child with money.

I should've let you go long ago, but I couldn't do that.

I was too busy trying to keep my life together,

so I couldn't be considerate of yours.

Tell me what you want.

At the very least, I need to know why you're doing this.

Please respect Jin's decision.

That's...

That's it? You want to let that girl get involved with Jin?

If this becomes a suit, it won't do you any good.

Have you been waiting for a chance like this?

Have you been wanting to make me as miserable as possible?

Why should I have to go through something like this at this point?

All you need is this business.

You can live freely.

You're threatening me with a divorce paper...

while claiming you're giving me freedom?

Believe in yourself.

You'll be fine even when you're all alone.

I don't get why people say you're a good man.

You're awfully sly and scary!

Call me once you make a decision.

You never even begged me to stay!

What if I did?

Would you have stayed?

Don't you do what you want no matter how I respond?

What has gotten into you?

You won't even get changed before me,

but you wanted to come to a sauna together.

Do you have...

something to say to me?

Are you sure you won't run away?

After that happened to Dad,

you ran away.

You didn't even talk to me.

Everyone has a different coping mechanism.

It's Dad who had the hardest time with the injury.

You're just like Mom.

So what?

Are you going to punish me?

I don't want you to run away from now on.

I don't want a coward for a brother.

That's what I said.

- Really? - No.

Congratulations. Here's your diploma.

I get that you're graduating in summer,

but you should still come to the graduation ceremony.

The ceremonies in summer are official too.

I was working, so I didn't have any time.

You didn't come because you didn't want to be alone, right?

You finished your student teacher training,

but you won't take the teacher certification exam.

Do you think ceramics will be promising enough for you...

to give up all of your options?

This is the best decision I can make right now.

Call me if there's any problem.

Don't keep it to yourself and suffer alone.

That's an illness too.

Okay.

CERTIFICATION OF AN ACADEMIC DEGREE, NAME: OH YE JI

Good job,

Ye Ji.

CERTIFICATION OF AN ACADEMIC DEGREE, NAME: OH YE JI

Abstract Expressionism started in the States in the 1950s.

Abstract Expressionism...

"WESTERN ART: THE MIX OF THE HISTORY AND THEORIES"

I'm from Unit 309. Can you change the lightbulb?

Okay.

- What are you doing? - I was helping you.

How is this helping?

I was helping you. You were doing it wrong.

- Hey. - So I was trying to help you.

You only ruined my drawing!

- Do you not understand that? - What's going on here?

He just ruined my drawing.

I'm done.

- I'm done. - Are you done?

Hurry.

- Give me a second. - You're still not done?

- Let me wrap this up. - Hurry. Let's just go.

- Let's get going now. - Okay.

- I'm done too. - My gosh.

Let's go.

- Hurry. - Let's go now.

Let's go.

- Let's hurry. - Let's go.

1 HOUR FROM SEOUL TO YANGPYEONG

Did you go to Seoul?

Yes. I had to get something from school.

You and I need to go somewhere together.

Have you been on a rail bike before?

Rail bike? What's that?

We don't have much time until the last bus. Let's hurry.

Hurry.

Do you know what's at the end of this track?

I don't know. It's my first time here.

There's only one rail track.

To return to the starting point,

we have to make a turn at the end of the track.

And at the end of the track,

your life could change completely.

You won't be alone anymore.

You'll neither be lonely...

nor sad.

That could be your life.

What is this? This is beautiful.

What?

Sir.

Ms. Oh.

Please join our family.

I couldn't win you over by myself,

so all the men in our family came together.

We want you to live with us.

We will...

be your family.

You will have a father, a husband,

an older brother,

and a younger brother.

We won't let you live this life alone.

Please join our family.

Sit down.

Despite everything,

you still want to marry my son.

You sounded confident, so I actually trusted you.

But in the end, it's just as I expected.

You won over all the men in my family.

What's your secret?

It's because...

they are nice people.

Mr. Seo, Jin, and Hwan.

They are all nice people, so they were just nice to me.

I didn't do anything.

Do you know what those nice guys did to their mother?

PRENUPTIAL AGREEMENT

It's a prenuptial agreement.

It states if you were to get a divorce, you can't claim...

any of our assets other than the alimony we pay you.

It also states when I ask you to leave,

you must do so without any objections.

With all due respect,

I don't understand this.

Are you telling me you will accept me?

Do you think I should disapprove of you?

Are you wondering why I'm going through this trouble?

Even when I disclose the truth,

do you think they will accept you?

I like keeping the trump card to myself.

Or do you want to take a risk?

PRENUPTIAL AGREEMENT

Go and let them love you.

But in the end, I hold your fate in my hands.

Hand over the shares you said you would by the end of this week.

It's better than a divorce.

Don't think you lost a lot to me.

If Jin and Hwan find out that you cut a deal by using them,

they won't forgive you.

They already don't like me much.

They already hate me as it is.

I should try to get whatever I can while I still can. Don't you agree?

Can't you try to accept Jin's feelings for Ye Ji...

and approve of Ye Ji?

Well, if you were to give me more shares,

perhaps, I might be generous.

Bye.

MINISTRY OF JUSTICE: HAPPY CORRECTIONS, HAPPY CITIZENS

Let me check your belongings.

A man died!

And a woman left as if nothing happened after killing a man!

Mom.

Are you all right?

Are you awake now?

Mom.

Aren't we going home?

Dad will look for us.

We should hurry back home now.

She won't come out.

She won't accept your visitation again today.

Hey.

My goodness, she's so stubborn.

Her daughter came to see her.

How can she never agree to the visitation?

What on earth is her problem? My goodness.

Take care.

I'll never come back now.

Shouldn't I rehearse this with Mr. Seo?

Father.

He's not Mr. Seo anymore. Call him Father.

I'm not used to calling him that yet.

Dad rehearsed it with me all day yesterday.

But he doesn't seem to want to rehearse it in front of people.

He wants to show people the perfect wedding without any mistakes.

I should have visited you. But I couldn't.

- Thank you. - Congratulations.

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

Hi.

- Okay. - Thank you.

Isn't she that girl?

I believe so.

Don't you have a lot of pride to become...

an uninvited guest?

For a heroine who was tragically abandoned,

getting an invitation isn't that important.

Sorry to point this out, but you're not the heroine here.

Does your bride know...

about our relationship?

It ended a very long time ago.

Then, if I cause a huge scene at your wedding,

will you at least let me be a villain who tortures the heroine?

Do you want me to drag you out?

Jin.

They asked me what you're going to sing...

- and if we have music for it. - That woman.

That woman who was just here.

Don't let her see Ye Ji.

Personally make sure she doesn't stay.

Okay.

- Hey. - It's an appetizer. I should eat...

We have to catch that woman.

What?

This is the bride's room.

I know that. I'm here to see the bride.

You can't.

- Why is that? - I'm sorry.

Please leave.

My older brother doesn't want your blessing.

You're Jin's younger brother?

What if I say no?

Please stay away from the bride.

This is the day when she should be the happiest in the world.

Thanks to her,

there's a woman who will face the biggest tragedy of her life.

Talk to my brother if you're unhappy.

Pouring this red wine on her snow-white wedding dress...

was my plan.

Wait.

Please leave. I'll escort you out.

How? Will you drag me out?

Or...

will you punch me, so I pass out?

Whatever you choose,

I'm sure it will cause quite a scene.

Are you okay with that?

You look so pretty.

May I take a photo with the bride too?

- Sure. - Sure.

You can sit here.

Thanks.

I'll take the picture. In 1, 2.

I hope you'll be happy for a very long time.

Thank you.

I'm a part of Coach Seo's racing team.

Hello. Thank you for coming.

You're very stunning.

I can see why Coach Seo was dying to marry you in a hurry.

Where are you going for the honeymoon trip?

Excuse me, you should come and see Jin too.

Should I do that?

See you later.

Okay.

Please tell Coach Seo...

that I am awfully sorry I couldn't stay and celebrate.

And that I'll make sure...

we all meet up once he returns from his honeymoon.

Who was that? Jin's ex-girlfriend?

No idea.

That was way too obvious.

Wait, was he two-timing?

Or did he dump her because he fell in love with Ms. Oh?

She's really hot.

Isn't she?

Hey, wait for me!

What a beautiful moment.

The bride is walking down the aisle...

with the groom's father,

Yangpyeong's pride, Geonam Seo Seong Gon.

Please give them a bigger hand!

Gosh, I can't bear to watch this.

The groom, Seo Jin...

And the bride, Oh Ye Ji...

- vow before all of our guests... - vow before all of our guests...

- to never turn our heads away... - to never turn our heads away...

- no matter what life has for us. - no matter what life has for us.

- We vow to become a couple... - We vow to become a couple...

- who share everything in life... - who share everything in life...

- and stay by each other's side. - and stay by each other's side.

I've been alone for a long time.

I was scared of darkness,

and I didn't know how I'll survive in this world.

I didn't have any weapons in my hands.

I pretended like I was strong,

but I was trembling in my heart.

Instead of passionate "I love you",

he touched my heart saying he'll be my family.

His kindness made it impossible to let go of his hand.

Thank you...

for finding me...

and for accepting me...

as a part of your beloved family.

I will become a good wife.

I will be his best friend.

I will look after our little family with love...

so that our seed of love can grow and bear fruit.

I...

love you.

The groom has to give a reply to the bride's sincere confession.

Groom, are you ready to give her a reply?

WHEN I WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL

What are you trying to do?

Just admit that it's tough for you.

That you need a place to breathe.

You can start racing again.

But don't get hurt.

I promise to return safely.

Hello? Yes, this is she.

Father.
