Episode 33 Hyo-Eun isn't Tae-Il's child?

Hyo-Eun isn't Tae-Il's child?

She isn't?

Answer me!

Do I have to call Tae-Il for you to answer?

No...

I'm so sorry.

It's true.

She isn't Tae-Il's daughter.

Father. I'm so sorry.

How... how long has he known?

Tell me the truth!

How long? From the start?

Or... did you lie to him too?

He... knew from the start.

Then he knew when he brought you home to introduce us?

He pretended it was his child even then?

Are you saying that he consciously deceived us from then?

Answer!

Yes.

I'm so sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Father!

Father!

It's me.

There's a problem.

Father found out about Hyo-Eun.

What? How?

Are you insane? Why did you tell him?

Why did you tell him the truth?

I had no choice. He overheard and pressured me, so I couldn't lie.

Are you joking?

You didn't intentionally tell him?

Forget it. I don't wanna hear it.

How much did you tell him?

How much?

Alright. Hang up.

'Tae-Il'

- Alright, dad. - Hush little baby...

- He's home early. - Hush my baby...

Mom, she's sleeping.

- Are you sure? - Let me see.

Yeah, she is.

Hi, dad.

Where did you go without a word? You came home early for once.

She wasn't in a good mood, so I put her to sleep on my back. What about dinner?

Later. I have no appetite now.

Why upstairs? Are you going to your study?

Father... Is Father home?

Yeah, he just went upstairs.

Hyo-Eun's here.

Hwang didn't call you to say that I took her again?

I'll go up.

He didn't answer me.

She's heavy. Spread a blanket to put her down.

She's sleeping well.

Father.

Is it true?

Hyo-Eun really isn't your daughter?

No.

I'm so sorry.

Why did you do that? Why did you lie to us?

Are you gonna make me repeat myself? Why?

I didn't think you'd let me marry her otherwise.

If I told you the truth, you wouldn't let me marry her.

I'm so sorry.

That's why you rushed abroad after you married. Because of guilt.

So how long were you gonna lie to us? All your life?

Get out. From now on, you're not my son.

Get out of my house!

Didn't you hear me? Get out!

Out!

What happened? Why did he say that?

What's the matter?

Let him leave.

Let him!

I'm sorry.

What happened? What's going on?

Take her to her mom.

Why all of a sudden?

Just do as I say!

Tae-Young, wake her and take her to her mom.

Why? I'll raise her here from now on.

Just do as I say!

You should listen to the head of the family!

What are you doing? Wake her up!

Yes.

Mom, what should I do? Wake her up?

Take her upstairs.

Be careful not to wake her. If she cries, he'll find out.

What's the matter?

Why did you kick him out and tell us to send her back?

What did he do wrong? What did he do?

Just send her back. I'll wash.

I asked what it is. Tell me!

What's with him?

Sis. With the lights off...

Sis.

What happened? Is something wrong?

Father in-law found out...

...that Hyo-Eun isn't Tae-Il's.

How?

He overheard our conversation.

I wanted to die when I saw his devastation.

But you insisted on telling them.

I willingly gave in though.

I was afraid of losing him if they knew.

I shouldn't have...

I shouldn't.

Why was I so thoughtlessly optimistic? Nothing is free.

I was scared.

I wasn't ready to fight against prejudice and I wasn't sure I could raise her alone.

I met him then and I didn't want to lose him.

I deluded myself that deception was relief and compromise was love.

I was a coward. I was.

I think it was like an accident. You just met misfortune head on.

Accidents aren't your fault. Why do you blame everything on yourself?

What's wrong with being a coward? People are supposed to be weak.

It's enough to know that you are.

Some people don't even know that even when they are.

You kept her.

As far as I'm concerned, you're the bravest mother in the world.

Sir, how about this then? It's very popular.

Women like these too.

There are many pretty ones there too.

How about this?

This one?

Wrap it.

Min-Sun!

I heard you're busy.

Yeah. I have a live morning show.

It's good to be busy.

Working makes me feel better.

I was wondering...

...if you're still waiting for my answer.

No. Do you think I'm slow?

You're seeing Geum Lee, right?

Yeah.

Don't get me wrong.

I'm just asking as a once-best friend.

I heard she has leukemia. It will be hard for her to have kids too.

But you wouldn't just meet anyone.

Is it pity by any chance?

No.

Good then.

Good for us.

I heard there's less than a 3% chance that it works out for reunited lovers.

But I'm worried. You don't know women.

I don't?

Didn't you know?

You're clueless. You're too obsessed and straightforward.

I don't care.

As long as I know her feelings.

I'm starting to.

You're mean to say that to me.

I once hoped it was you.

I fell for you at the end of my youth.

But I think I can tell now. The difference between falling for someone and loving.

Love just started at some moment and I found myself in love.

So don't ever bring up leukemia or pity in front of me.

I don't love her as a patient. I love her as a woman.

Sis. I was about to call you too.

She fell asleep. You were worried, huh?

She's well, so don't worry.

Tae-Il? He isn't here.

Dad...

No, he went out.

I see... Alright.

Is everything okay?

I'll go to take her tomorrow.

Okay. Bye.

She's well. Sleeping.

I guess father kept it to himself.

Tae-Il isn't at home. Tae-Young seems to be clueless.

I see.

Let's eat. I have to go buy things for rice rolls.

Rice rolls?

I think of selling them at the subway station in the morning.

$1 for a roll. Just 50 rolls a day.

I won't find any publishing work for a while.

Freelance designers are having hard time too, so it's not easy either.

I have to do anything till I find a job.

I'm learning from my friend how to go door-to-door during the day.

I couldn't be independent 7 years ago. It's time to now.

I have to buckle down.

Let's eat.

I realized that strength is everything...

...whenever I run from guards holding heavy bags.

Eat.

I think rice rolls are a good idea.

For a couple of hours in the morning. It'll be good.

Right?

I read an article that...

...a 30-something housewife made it by selling them 2 hours every morning.

Hi, aunt.

Did you eat? We're eating ramen.

Go ahead. I had it.

Did you talk to Ki? What was he thinking? Geez...

Just over the phone. He'll come home tonight, so I'll go home after dinner.

What about Ki?

You don't know? He quit his internship!

What?

Ki!

Father.

What? So you changed your mind?

Give me your blessing, father. I'll do well.

If that's what you came here for, get out.

Why do you need my permission to live as you please?

Have I ever disobeyed you? This is my first time.

So? Does that make it okay?

Father...

Just listen to my reasons. Think just once from my shoes.

I still can't. You're not capable of making sound judgment.

How can you say that?

I'm confident in myself and...

...the recognition of performance culture is improving.

Stop looking at the world from your old view and look at the changing world.

Why can't you understand my dream and passion?

How can we dream a future without courage and challenge?

You were once a young man like me. How could you forget about it?

You bastard... Then why did you go to the medical school?

Did anyone push you to go to med school?

We couldn't support Geum and Hwang because of your tuition!

Mom, you can't say that.

Do I have to be miserable just because you've invested so much?

Ki!

Father...

I don't want to spend my life seeing patients. I want to live passionately.

I really want to do this. I can't be miserable just to make you happy.

I can't be happy as a doctor. I'll be miserable!

So go and live as you please.

Why do I have to give you my blessing just to make you feel better?

If you're that mature and smart...

...live as you please and don't ask for my permission.

Do you think that little of your parents?

You took everything from us and now that you can stand on your own, you say that?

'You were once a young man. Why can't you understand me?'

'Stop looking at the world from your old view and look at the changing world?'

Yeah, we gave up our dreams for you.

We lived not as humans, men or women.

Just as parents. This is how we raised you.

Now we're old and narrow minded old folks who can't understand you.

We're so stupid we can only advise you...

...to keep investing time in a worthless endeavor.

Get out! Live as you please!

Father...

Didn't you hear me? Get out now!

Ki!

Geez...

Did you really have to say that?

That's not what I meant...

Ki sure is Hwang's brother.

How could he say all that without considering their feelings?

I hear ya.

Do you really have to do this? There's already Hwang...

Can't you not react like that and listen to me for once?

I bet the rest of my life and made an agonizing decision.

Yeah. Why wouldn't I be tempted by a stable and secure path?

If I chose this in spite of that, don't you think it's beyond reckless courage?

Don't follow me.

Alright.

Honestly I can't understand, but I'll try.

But you should come tomorrow too.

Come and beg everyday until they give in. Alright?

Okay.

You're putting me in a difficult position.

I was about to tell them about the CML and I can't because of you.

You're going to the hospital tomorrow, huh?

I wanted to go with you for your bone marrow test.

But it's my first practice.

You're not in a position to worry about me.

And what did you say?

Didn't you say you'd be my doctor from now on?

I'll go.

Ki!

Alright.

Don't skip meals. Come home every day! Please!

Bro. What's up?

She has a bone marrow biopsy? I didn't know.

Thanks for letting me know. What time?

Okay. I'll be there.

Bone marrow biopsy? Who's taking a biopsy?

No. I'll go. I don't have time.

I'll call later. Bye.

Who's taking a biopsy...

The anesthesia is done. I'll withdraw the bone marrow.

The needle won't go in. I'll try elsewhere.

You have to lie motionless for 4 hours.

Yes. I've done it before.

Take a rest.

- Geum Lee is here, right? - Yes.

Can I go in?

She needs to rest. You can't.

I see.

Are you alright?

I am.

Really?

I told you many times. I'm fine.

I rested a lot.

We're supposed to come together for tests. Why didn't you tell me?

It's a bone marrow test, not a blood test.

It's just taking bone marrow.

Just bone marrow?

How did you know?

I know everything, so make sure you bring me next time.

If you don't tell me one more time, I'll get really mad.

Okay.

I'm really okay.

It's a regular 6 month check up. This was the 2nd time, so it didn't hurt as much.

Jeez...

I'm really fine. This is why I came alone.

I have to do this all my life.

I'll do it.

A friend of mine asked me yesterday.

If I love you out of pity.

I was upset then. Because she saw you as a patient.

But you are a patient who has to take a bone marrow biopsy every 6 months.

So... please remember.

I can do everything else. If you want me to dance naked in front of people, I can.

But I can't watch you in pain.

So promise me.

To eat and sleep well. Not to over work yourself.

Not to get worse. Promise me.

I, Geum Lee, solemnly swear that I will eat, sleep well, never overwork,...

...get better and stay by Kyung-Woo Ko's side.

What are you doing? Let's go.

Aren't you hungry? What do you wanna eat?

Something meaty.

What?

I want meat. To make up for bone marrow taken.

Sure. Something meaty. Let's go.

'1 dollar for a roll. Homemade, only 50 to sell.'

The rice rolls are too cold because of the weather.

It would be nice to keep them warm.

$1 for a roll. They're home made.

I used ingredients good enough to feed my daughter.

I guarantee taste and quality. Have this for breakfast. $1 for one roll.

Thanks. Bon appetite.

$1 for a roll.

They're home made. I guarantee taste and quality.

Have this for breakfast.

Hwang!

Jung-Chul...

Yeah, I'm selling rice rolls. Please buy some.

Yes. I'm going to a meeting, so give me 5.

Sure, thanks.

Thank you.

I'll be here from now on, so spread the word for me.

Also, if you find some work for me, let me know.

I thought you'd already found a job.

Okay, I'll try.

I feel very encouraged. Thank you.

Here.

Here's the change.

- It's ok. - Come on. Take it.

- Bye. - Thanks.

- Spread the word! Thanks. - Okay.

- A partnership? - Just 3 months.

I'll run to the publishers if there's an opening.

I can't do this as my primary job like you.

But I'm afraid there won't ever be any openings.

I have to do anything, so I'll do it.

You worked hard to find customers, so I'll take whatever you give me.

Just 3 months. What do you think?

I guess I have nothing to lose.

Sure, let's do it.

Ok. Thanks. Where are we going today?

Excuse me.

Yeah, it's me.

Why didn't you pick up yesterday? I was worried.

How did it go?

I'll tell mom after work.

She needs to know.

Once she finds out, she'll let Hyo-Eun go. So just wait.

Don't come to pick her up.

Okay. I won't.

How's father? I was worried about his blood pressure. Is he fine?

I can't talk long. I'll call later. Bye.

Let's talk. I have something to tell you.

Just do as I say! Why are you so obstinate?

Then give me a reason. A persuasive one.

You wanted to raise her and now you changed your mind all of a sudden.

You drove Tae-Il out out of the blue. You gotta tell me why.

Say something.

Do you want to torture me?

It's obvious something is wrong but you won't say it.

What is it? What?

Nothing!

How many times did I tell you? Just take her back!

You old geezer...

I can't! I won't take her back!

I'll raise her no matter what.

Am I a dog? Am I supposed to obey just because you yell at me?

I can't!

There's no reason why Hwang should raise our child. It's for her and Hwang...

Hyo-Eun isn't our grandchild.

What?

She isn't Tae-Il's child!

What are you babbling about?

What do you mean? She isn't Tae-Il's child?

Honey...

Say something. What did you mean?

Ma'am, I'm sorry. Bring me some tissues!

- Geez... - I ran out!

So what?

- Ma'am! - Geez, she's so loud.

Ma'am! I'm sorry, but bring me some tissues! I ran out!

Ma'am! Bring me tissues!

Ma'am!

Is she intentionally ignoring me?

Is she sleeping?

Ma'am!

What!

What!

So smelly! It's going to spread!

Give me.

Take it. Take it!

Ow...

Oh, I'm sorry.

Jeez...

Ki.

What now?

Don't get me wrong. I thought you weren't here.

Your friend told me you weren't here now.

I thought I gave you all the DVDs but I left 2 out.

They are rare ones and they're no use to me, so...

I just wanted to leave them.

Alright. Too bad if you don't believe me. Bye.

Hello, director.

Hi. Sit.

Yes.

Want some tea? What do you want? Coffee or green tea?

Green tea please.

Lady! 2 cups of green tea.

You didn't tell Kyung-Woo that I called for you, did you?

No. You told me not to.

But I can't trust you anymore. I thought you were trustworthy.

Don't even try to lie.

I went to the station and saw something unthinkable.

I don't know what you're thinking to see him again.

Don't see him anymore.

If you had healthy morals and sound judgment...

...you'd know that people give a positive impact to each other...

...only when they're from comparable backgrounds.

Do you have anything comparable to Kyung-Woo?

Not to mention your education, profession and family...

Don't you feel sorry for Kyung-Woo?

You think you got lucky?

Director.

Just listen.

Don't dare to talk back.

Don't meet him anymore.

I'll understand that you met temporarily, so don't further the relationship.

Then I'll secure your coaching position. Understand?

Don't ignore what I've said.

I've never failed in chasing off his girlfriends.

You want some tea before you leave or not?

I'll just leave.

Bye then. I won't see you off.

I briefly told you about my father, right?

He divorced my mom and left home when I was 9.

Yes.

Since then, I saw my father just twice.

When my grandpa died in 7th grade and when my grandma died in 10th grade.

I never looked for father and he didn't look for me.

I found out later that mom kept him from it.

But if he really wanted to, there must've been a way.

I'm still his son. How could he completely sever ties with me?

I hated him and couldn't understand him.

But all of a sudden, I felt like looking for him.

I want to go see him and ask him to attend my wedding.

Aren't you proud of me? For thinking so?

I picked this.

Um... Geum.

Marry me.

I mean it this time.

I went to more than 10 stores to look for this.

Open it.

Jeez... open it.

What? Are you that touched?

Or do you not wanna marry me?

You don't?

No...

I haven't thought of it yet.

Who is it?

It's me. Open it.

Mother.

Is it true?

Is what I heard true?

Is it true that Hyo-Eun isn't Tae-Il's daughter?

Won't you answer?

Answer!

Yes, mother. It's true.
