Episode 32

You don't want some? You don't like popcorn?

No, I don't.

But you gotta eat some with movies. Just like hot dogs at a baseball park.

Try it. It's good.

Jeez...!

You're obsessed with doing everything others do!

You gotta have a free pass at the amusement park...

...and you gotta find out the other person's blood type and avoid B-type.

If some exercise is in trend...

...you just follow it without considering your own condition...

...and end up with injury.

Why do I have to eat greasy popcorn? Getting it all over you.

Disgusting. I hate popcorns.

I really hate it! Man!

Why ice cream in this freezing weather?

Thanks.

- Are you mad? - Mad, why...

Why would I be?

I think you are.

Is it because I met Joon-Ho?

It is.

It was brief.

And he gave me a ride because it was on the way.

Did I ask? Did I say anything?

Wow, so petty. I explained and you're still mad.

Explain? Does it justify your meeting him?

Why would you meet him out of all people? Then can I meet Min-Sun?

I met him to tell him that I have someone else.

That was it and I left after 10 minutes.

Should I have said that on the phone?

You should've told me earlier.

This is so good.

Are you laughing?

Are you messing with me?

Geez...

- Come here. - It's all over my face!

Father, are you back?

Who is it?

- It's me. Open it quick. - Okay, uncle.

- You're back. - Is Ki back?

Yeah, just now.

Grandpa and grandma are here and we were about to eat sweet potatoes Ki...

- Come and have a sit. - Eat sweet potatoes.

- Hi, honey. - Hi, father.

Hi there.

Father. I'm sorry.

You, upstairs. Right now.

Father.

Honey, what's wrong?

Where did you say you were? Where?

I was at your hospital.

I heard you quit your internship last May. To do musicals.

Father.

Come up. Right now!

What happened? Why would he quit hospital?

Well, that's... Oh, no...

- My goodness. - This is big.

- What is going on? - - Don't go.

- Oh, my. - Stay. Let them be.

How dare you cry out? How dare you?

- Honey! - You stay out of this!

How dare you deceive us for months?

Raise your butt! How dare you dodge?

Honey. He told me a few days ago.

What?

So I was persuading him.

Why didn't you tell me?

I heard it right before the funeral.

I was gonna tell you after I sent him back to hospital.

There's Hwang's problem, too...

Butt up! Up!

Honey! Honey! Please.

Raise it!

Father. Stop it. Father!

Man-Seh!

That's enough to teach him a lesson. Stop it.

Yes, hon. Stop it. He knows he did wrong.

What if something breaks?

Yeah, you did enough.

We all know that he deserves more but...

We'll go, so control yourself. Okay?

Get up!

Now! Why are you so slow?

Yes...

What are you doing? Aren't you gonna apologize?

I'm sorry.

For lying to you and quitting without your permission. I'm sorry.

So you knew? You consciously lied like that?

I'm very sorry.

Enough.

Whatever you say, I don't want to hear nor forgive you.

So just tell me if you're gonna go back to hospital or not.

Why are you quiet, Ki?

Father. It's my dream to become a musical actor.

Won't you shut up?

It wasn't an impulsive decision.

I was in agony all through medical school...

...but I didn't dare because I made it to med school and I was the only son.

I agonized till early this year but I couldn't stand any more.

It was a difficult decision.

So?

Give me your blessing, father. I really want to do it.

I want to live on stage passionately...

...doing what makes my heart beat and my blood boil.

I'm confident I'll do well.

I already passed one audition.

You know how excited I was when I was in the theater group.

No!

Father.

I repeat. No. As long as you're my son. Okay?

I can't relent.

It was a decision I bet my life on. I'll do musicals.

Are you insane? Won't you be quiet?

Get out then.

If you think you're mature enough to live as you please, get out.

I'll have one less son from now on.

Honey...

What are you waiting for? Didn't you hear me? Get out!

I can't stand the sight of you, get out!

Alright. I will.

Are you crazy?

- You're not going anywhere! - Come on, what's wrong with you?

Let him go!

He left.

Goodness, that kid...

It's ok. It's better to leave than to deal with Man-Seh in days like this.

How could every single one... My God!

How come there's not a quiet day in this household?

Can moochers like us survive in this?

What was he thinking to do something so disastrous?

Where did he disappear to?

Ki. Now even you?

Honey.

You get out, too.

You schemed with him against me. Get out!

No, honey. Don't misunderstand. I found out recently.

I was devastated and was at a loss...

Then you should've told me then!

I'm sorry.

Hwang is like that, so I was afraid you'd be devastated.

I'm sorry. I felt so bad for you.

I thought you'd be heartbroken, because of those two.

I won't. I'll just go on without a son.

Like you said, I'm sick of them.

I don't need them. I'll just think I never had a son.

I wish you'd be happy today

When I open my eyes...

This is the first time...

This is the first time...

Geez, why can't you sleep?

Stop worrying and sleep. I said I told Hwang.

Shouldn't a mother take her kid's future as priority?

Wouldn't a sensible person know where Hyo-Eun would grow up better?

I made her understand, so wait.

Many women leave their kids after divorce. She's better than that, right?

I'd hate it, too, if she left Hyo-Eun with Tae-Il.

She looked worn.

She did. I saw her, too.

Sleep. You'll get sick. You haven't slept for days.

Tae-Il is the problem! Because he wouldn't listen...

Tsk tsk... Are you gonna repeat what we already discussed?

Alright... Let's go back to sleep.

Web designers & developers>

I don't know how this will taste. Here.

- Let's eat. - Thanks for the meal.

We won't budge on Hyo-Eun, so you'd better change your mind.

Hwang told me she'd reconsider, too.

Well... I have something to tell you about that.

I applied for training abroad.

What?

I wanted to finish my thesis abroad and I made up my mind.

I'll go. It's a year. Maybe two.

So you want to go abroad to study?

Yes.

When is it gonna be?

Early next year at the latest. Late this year at earliest.

Come on. Big brother is away and you too?

He's coming back next spring.

We have to see about that.

Why wouldn't he? He will.

So give up on Hyo-Eun.

What are you gonna do with her when I'm not here?

I understand how you feel. But I disagree.

Hyo-Eun is a girl. I think she should be with her mother. Hwang is a good mother.

Do you really have to do that?

What if Hyo-Eun wants to live here?

What if she hates living in that little room?

Mom, I know you're upset.

I'll tell Hwang to let Hyo-Eun stay here once or twice a month.

Why would you let our child grow up in that house?

How come you're so disinterested in your own daughter's future?

Do you wanna see her grow up with a step father?

Mom. It's not like she'll remarry any time soon.

Do you think she'll stay single forever? She even had an affair.

Mom, I did too. Before her.

What?

I'll discuss it with Hwang and let you see her regularly. Leave it at that.

Please eat.

- Hi, father, mother. - Hi.

Let's eat now.

Thanks for the meal.

Man-Seh, you didn't sleep at all, did you?

I did, mother. Sorry about yesterday.

Don't mention it. I was upset all night, too.

But why is he like that all of a sudden? He's always been a good kid.

Exactly. How come all these kids are messed up?

I have no house, no money and no husband...

...but my Soo-Kyung has never caused any trouble.

I guess that's why they say life is fair.

Your faces have become worn over night.

Wake up.

Mom. Let's eat out this weekend.

Why?

Why else? I was too busy to pay attention to you.

Let's eat out and go see a performance you love. I have something to tell you, too.

Make time.

I'm busy.

You are? Doing what?

I have a bazaar at my alumni meeting.

Oh, that annual thing? But you never go.

I've decided to go this year on.

Then sometime during the weekdays. I wanna talk. Okay?

I thought about it all night.

This wheeled bag is more mobile and easier, so I bought one.

This is my present. You'll be able to pull it alone.

Do you think you can do it?

How would I know in just one day? I'll tell you after a few days.

It's done.

Where do we start today?

The women are all busy...

...so I brought hangers.Let's go.

- Let's go. - Yeah.

Come and take a look. You'll see they're different. Come!

You have sharp eyes.

- It's a high quality imitation. - Still it's expensive.

Come on, feel the difference.

The pattern and fabric are different. Please come.

Come and take a look. Just browsing is fine, too.

You picked well. It looks so good on you.

Take this. I'll wrap it for you.

Hello?

Yes. How are you?

You asked me to call you if Hyo-Eun's grandmother comes again.

She's here and wants to take her.

I told her so, but...

I see. I'll be there. So don't let her leave till I get there. Please.

Okay, bye.

Thank you. Come again.

I'm sorry, but I have to go to the kindergarten. I'm sorry. I'll call later.

Sure.

Your bagpack... Good girl.

Let's go.

Why, Hyo-Eun?

What is it?

You don't wanna go with me?

Mom told me not without her permission.

Hyo-Eun. My house is yours, too.

Your mom is so firm, so your dad let you live with her for now.

But he wants to live with you if you want to.

It's your house.

Hyo-Eun. Who do you want to live with?

I know it's best to live with both your parents, but you can't now.

So I think it's best for you to live with your dad.

If you live with her, it will be hard on her and your dad, too.

It will be hard for her to raise you alone, and it will be hard on him to miss you.

Do you want to see your mother struggle?

Hyo-Eun, tell her you want to live with your dad.

That's best for mom, you and dad.

Okay?

Let's go. I'll tell mom to come pick you up.

Hyo-Eun!

Mom!

Mother, you can't do this. How can you take her without telling me again?

Come here.

How many times did I tell you?

Didn't I tell you not to go without my permission?

Hey, what's wrong with you? It's not her fault. I took her.

Exactly. What's wrong with you?

Am I kidnapping her? Am I a criminal?

She's my granddaughter. Can't I even see her?

How preposterous. What's wrong with you?

Your selfishness separated her from her father and gave us this pain.

Why did you get divorced in the first place? Who made her suffer like this?

Let's go.

Let's go.

Hey. If you thought of her that much, you shouldn't have done it.

If you regret you did, you should let her grow up in a proper environment.

Why are you trying to ruin her life, too?

Why cling to her when you can't even afford to send her to a tutor!

I heard she quit piano and swimming.

And look at yourself. Have you seen the sorry state you're in?

Mother.

Let's go.

How many times did I tell you?

Didn't I tell you to call me when you go to grandma's?

Come now.

I wanna live with dad.

I do want to live with dad.

See? You heard that, right?

What did you just say? Say it again.

I'll live with dad. I don't wanna live in a small room.

See? Did you think she didn't know anything?

So think hard.

Let's go, Hyo-Eun.

It's me.

Let's meet.

It's about Hyo-Eun.

What, Hyo-Eun?

Why aren't you eating?

Why? Because of mom?

Because of what you said to her?

It's ok.

She'll think hard about what's best for you.

Eat now, my baby. Good girl.

Let's talk.

Did you tell Hwang you took her?

Of course. I met her at the kindergarten.

Hyo-Eun told her she'd want to live dad too.

She did?

You didn't push her?

You did. Making her do something like that...

Is it for my sake?

She quit all her activities.

Hey, let's go ski during vacation.

- Shall we? - Yeah, let's do that.

Tae-Young, don't you wanna go ski? When should we go?

Tae-Young. I'm sorry.

This is the last time I'll see you.

Even if you call and come to see me.

- Tae-Young. What's wrong? - Hey. Why are you crying?

This chicken is too spicy. Why is it so spicy?

Hello?

Yes.

Is that so?

Okay. So where is Ki now?

Thank you.

I'm leaving.

Hey!

Ki.

Ki!

Hey.

You...

What are you doing here?

Bum-Soo called me.

I heard you were kicked out of your house.

Gosh...

What is this? So all you did was lounge around, read comics and sleep.

See. Just eating cup ramen.

Is that what you quit your internship for?

Hey.

You...

Go.

You should practice more in times like this.

Get up. Let's go practice.

I said go! Mind your own business.

Let's go together.

Did you forget what I said?

I told you that I wouldn't see you again.

Do you think I can afford to see a girl?

Everyone thinks I'm crazy to quit my internship to do this.

I even got kicked out of my house.

On top of that, you're Tae-Il's sister. Why are you so dense?

Do I have to get mad and raise my voice to get it through to you?

Do I have to say it to make you stop coming?

Go!

If you know humiliation, go now!

Honestly... I don't like musicals.

I went to Broadway with my dad...

...and saw the famous 'Phantom of the Opera' and 'Rent' but I dozed off.

But I started to buy and watch musical CDs and DVDs because of you.

I still don't know whether I like them, but I got assured of one thing.

That you'll become as good as them.

Take them.

I don't need them. I bought them for you.

I'll go.

I know humiliation, too.

My first love that couldn't start is over now...

Bastard...

I was worried she got a new doctor, but I'm relieved it's you. Aren't you the best?

Why are you buttering me up?

Tell me. What about Geum?

Bro. If something happens to her, tell me first.

If something like blood test or bone marrow test results are bad.

What's going on?

There's someone named Ki Lee, and he asked the same thing.

Well, she's his sister, but why you?

I love her.

I'm qualified, huh? Please.

I cooped up in my studio and worked.

When we see your work...

Excuse me.

'I'm here. I'll be reading at the coffee shop across the street'

- Let's have a 10 minute break. - Sure.

Thank you.

Coach Lee!

Huh? Hey, coach!

Isn't that a math book?

- No. - Yes, it is.

It says so on its cover.

But why? You wanna take an SAT?

For college?

No...

Yes. If I can.

I have time now because I don't have to work as much.

I promised mom when I gave up college...

...and went professional because of my father's hospital bills.

That I'll go to college someday.

I kinda wanted to after coaching kids.

To learn systematically to be a trainer.

I'm sure if I can.

It's been too long since I graduated.

You make it sound like you were a good student.

Then... Shall I take a look?

- Give me! - No way.

- Hey, give it! - Geez!

You don't even know quadratic functions?

- Give it! - Can you not know something this easy?

- Please give it back! - This is pre-algebra. Not even algebra!

Hey!

You don't know quadratic equation?

That's too much. You don't even know the basics.

Give it to me! It's mine.

Alright, alright. Here, here...

Yes. I was a poor student. Happy now?

Hwang and Ki looked at me like that all my life, so don't.

It's ok. I'm good at math.

Why would a track coach need to be good at math?

Go to college.

I'll help you.

I was gifted when I was young. Let's see.

I told you I was gifted.

You know my IQ is 150?

I left my notes there. I'll go get it.

Hello?

Hello, director.

I want to see you.

What about 4pm the day after tomorrow?

I don't feel well, so come to my place.

Bye.

Let's go.

Kyung-Woo, by any chance...

The director... doesn't know yet, does she?

About us?

Not yet. Why?

Nothing. Let's go.

Hyo-Eun said that?

Yes, she did.

We have no choice now.

Tell them the truth.

I said I can't.

Then what should we do? We can't resolve it otherwise.

Wait.

I'll leave.

I'm going abroad.

Early next year at the latest.

It will be quiet once I leave.

Send her to them once or twice a month on the weekends for my parents.

You can do that much, can't you?

It's so you.

So like you.

You're always like this.

You always avoid problems instead of solving them.

Since our wedding. I insisted on telling them, and you insisted not to.

You said we didn't need to expose ourselves to others' prejudice.

It was so persuasive and we deluded ourselves and your parents, too.

But we both knew.

That we were cowards and we shouldn't have done it.

And now you're going abroad? Leaving all your problems behind?

Naively hoping that your parents will give up.

Don't criticize. Why wouldn't I be leaving unless it was unbearable?

So you're leaving because of me?

Yes. Whether you leave or not, it's your business. I don't care.

But resolve Hyo-Eun's matter.

So wait a little longer. They'll be quiet once I leave.

That's only what you think!

What if they don't return her when you're not around?

What if they tear up my heart like last time...

...by locking the door and calling me names?

So please tell them the truth. Please!

I said I can't! I just can't, no matter what.

How can I say that just to resolve your problem?

Think how shocked and betrayed they'd feel.

So how long are we gonna lie to them?

I feel so sorry for deceiving them. Sincerely.

You have no choice. You sinned, so take the burden.

Do you think I feel less sorry than you?

I'm their son.

I can't.

Just a few more months.

I can't tell them.

Then remarry soon. And have a kid.

They'll stop obsessing once you have a kid.

I feel suffocated like this.

Remarry soon to save me.

Is it that important that I sent the pictures?

Isn't the content what matters?

That she betrayed you.

Yes it is.

Then why are you doing this to me?

You were attracted to me. Why all of a sudden?

Jung-Yoon.

You didn't have a selfish motive?

Why did you send them anonymously? Why did you hide yourself?

Please be honest for once. To yourself.

I once fell in love like you and did something I shouldn't have.

I wanted to make the woman I loved mine.

But I couldn't in normal circumstances.

So I committed an unforgivable sin to my parents.

I justified myself with many excuses.

But I shouldn't have done it, no matter what.

And I'm paying the price now.

So wake up.

No matter what, you'll pay the price.

It's me. Where are you?

Home.

Can you talk?

I have to meet you for this, but I can't this evening.

What is it? Tell me.

'The line is busy, You'll be transferred to the voice mail.'

What?

What if I raise her?

I didn't even dream about it, but it hit me all of a sudden.

It's not like I don't love her. And you have such a hard time.

If it's too hard on you to raise her, I don't mind.

Tae-Il, are you listening to yourself?

Is this who you are?

Are you now so desperate to take her away from me?

Don't get me wrong. I have no ulterior motive.

It's just that you have such a hard time.

However hard it is, I'll raise her. Don't even say such nonsense!

When did you care about her that much?

Do you know what the first thing you said was when we got divorce?

It was 'she's yours so take her.'

'I'll give you all custody rights. Take her and leave now!'

She isn't your child, but you raised her for 7 years.

I know blood is thicker than water, but she was your daughter for 7 years.

Do you know what you did when I left with her?

You didn't even look at her. Did you?

Don't joke with me. I'll raise her.

Like you said, I'll give her up over my dead body!

Do you understand?

What did you just say?

Father...

What do you mean, Hyo-Eun isn't Tae-Il's child?

Um...

What do you mean, Hyo-Eun isn't our child?
