Bride of the Century

This is not an end, but a beginning.

You've shown that both longing and patience are also love.

Now put your sadness behind you and move forward.

And if you're patient, you'll find what

you're waiting for at the end of the path.

Final Episode

This award is very meaningful.

It's a nationally acclaimed award so it'll be good for the

brand's image, which means we can expect revenues to go up.

On top of that, your efforts to standardize part-time

and full-time employee benefits is a hot topic.

I know who is responsible for your change.

What? So are you telling me you can't?

I'm sorry ma'am, it's past the date that is stated in our return policy.

And the damaged part was not our fault so...

Are you implying that I'm being cheap about a stupid purse?

I am a VVIP client here!

Give me my money back right now!

I'm sorry but because of the company policy...

Why you...

Lady.

Lady?

It's clear that you don't even look good with this high end purse.

Accept her return.

Okay.

And please apologize to my employee.

Seriously... what the...

Go after her.

Thank you Mr. Choi. Thank you.

I will work harder.

Have a good day.

Mr. Choi!

- Hi. - Hello.

I had a photo shoot here today.

Did you experience any difficulties during the photo shoot?

Nothing like that...

But did you see the news about my breakup?

If you have time, I'd like to get dinner with you sometime.

Why haven't you gotten married yet?

You must not have heard.

I am married.

Goodbye.

Married?

To that girl Na Doo Rim or whatever that doesn't even exist?

Did I just get rejected because of her?

Where's your mom? Where's your mom?

Where's your mom?

Junho!

Here's your mom! She's here now.

Thank you.

It's been a year already...

Since you left home...

I know it doesn't compare to the years you've stood by waiting

but I spent each day as though it was a year waiting for you.

For the rest of my life I want to live each day as Kim Myung Hee's man.

I finally realized that your presence in

my life is one that should be cherished.

One day when I leave this world

I hope that I become soil and that when the

wind blows me from one place to another

the person I meet is you.

And what if I reject you?

It's the second winter after she left.

And just as she'd hoped, life became more peaceful

and someone who'd left came back.

Kang Ju, it's ready. Come out.

This is good!

Everyone has to come to the next showcase. Okay?

Okay, I'll make sure to be there.

Mom, why sweet potato of all vegetables? Makes me miss Doo Rim.

Doo Rim would love it if she came to our showcase.

Mom have this.

Okay.

What is this happy vibe I'm feeling?

Don't I get anything? Kimchi...

I've been eating that!

- Honey, you have this. - Should I?

After she left, we realized all that she'd given us.

In her absence, the tears are slowly being replaced with laughter.

I... miss her a lot.

[Spring... Again]

Grandma I'll be back!

Kang Rim, mommy will be back!

- Honey, don't forget about your lunch! - That's right!

Don't skip meals and take care of yourself.

Okay.

- Mommy! Bye, bye! - Bye, bye!

We caught this today so it's very fresh.

And I'll add this too.

Thank you! Goodbye!

Doo Rim!

- Are you done with school now? - Yes!

- I got the highest score on my midterm! - Really?

That's amazing Yoo Jung!

I packed some side dishes for you and your grandfather.

And this is medicine for your grandfather.

Here! This is my gift to you for doing well on your midterm!

Thank you Doo Rim!

I'll study really hard and make it up to you!

Okay!

Are you knitting that for Kang Rim?

Look at this. Don't you think it'll look good on Kang Rim?

I miss Kang Rim!

- I'll stop by to see him this weekend! - Okay.

Your grandfather is probably waiting for you. Head home now.

- Bye Doo Rim! - Bye!

How are you doing?

I'm doing well.

Our son, who looks just like you, must be a gift from you.

Whenever I miss you, I look at him and I'm able to get through the longing.

You're looking up at the same sky, right?

I hope, somewhere up in that sky, I'm able to see you again.

I... miss you... a lot.

It's gotten a lot warmer out.

In the spring, flowers start to bloom again

and birds come back home.

One day, you will receive good news.

Did you come to see how compatible you two are?

No way.

We're looking for someone. Her name is Na Doo Rim.

If you're looking for someone, you should go to the

police station, service companies or something like that.

I may be great but I do not have the ability to find people.

What's going on?

Well my mom told me...

Why don't you take a look at your future as a couple while you're here?

Looking at your facial structures, you two were made for each other.

- Made for each other? - Yes.

I've never seen two people better fit for each other.

It's not like that between us.

If you two do not end up together, then you will both be unhappy.

That's enough.

Let's go. We don't need to hear anymore of this.

How do you not see the gem standing right before you?

You're the type to push out your own happiness.

You can decide whether or not you believe me.

Gem?

Hold onto him. Very tightly.

And when you do, your luck will be like a

dragon headed straight up to the skies.

What are you doing? I said let's go.

Thank you.

My life...

Getting ordered around by a young kid...

That rude kid.

I've lost my skills so I don't even have customers anymore.

And here I am scheming with people.

When is she going to come back?

They were posted on the website but there's been a lot of

false alarms so I wouldn't expect a lot if I were you.

Even if it isn't her, I need to go.

Let me know if you get anything else.

Okay.

Lord, Buddha, please let him find her this time.

Thank you! Have a good day!

Yeah.

I don't think that's the place. We have new

information from the Sokcho Police Station.

The description is very similar and it seems reliable.

Okay.

Kang Rim, your dad's here.

I named him Kang Rim.

I took a part of each of our names.

His eyes, nose and mouth

all look like yours.

Thank you so much for not forgetting about Doo Rim and finding her.

Thank you so much.

Thank you...

Grandma, please accept my bow.

I'm sorry it took me so long to get here.

I'm very sorry...

Dad! Dad!

Goodbye!

Hello!

Is this the place where the Choi Kang Ju and Na Doo Rim love story began?

We saw this and came here.

The Choi Kang Ju and Na Doo Rim love story.

Yes, you're right.

This is the Na Doo Rim Restaurant.

We're trying to re-live history.

Re-live history?

The Choi Kang Ju and Na Doo Rim love story

is completely romantic and touching.

Their love story has been a hot topic in the news lately.

I cried all night reading the full story.

But where is Na Doo Rim? I wanted to get her autograph.

Doo Rim isn't here right now. She went to her in-law's.

By in-laws...

Choi Kang Ju's house?

[Choi Residence, 50 years ago]

Do you also believe the rumors?

About the first bride of the oldest son in this family

being taken as a sacrifice by a ghost guarding

this home before the first night passes.

Do you really believe that there is a spirit?

Soo Bohk...

I made up that rumor.

It was the only way I could make you my bride.

The first time I saw you was on a spring day when you

came here to drop off clothes for my mom.

My mom praised your meticulous work

and you smiled shyly in the shade of the trees.

You were so much prettier than the pink clothing you'd sewn.

I think it all began then.

That you started to grow in my heart.

I wanted to make you my bride.

But the opposition of my parents was unmistakably obvious

and so I started the rumor.

People believed it.

Because it was true that both my father and grandfather's

first wives died of either an accident or illness.

In the end, all marriage plans were called off and upper class

families did not want their daughters to marry into my family.

My parents had no choice but to pay for my first bride.

And that was you, Soon Bohk.

So you don't have to be so scared.

They're all rumors I started to have you in my life.

How did it go?

Did you find her body?

We did not find it.

So you did not find her...

And what about what I asked you to look into?

They say that a young man in the village by

the name of Dong Jae disappeared last night.

And...

What is it?

Tell me!

Prior to getting married, Miss Soon Bohk and

that young man had feelings for each other.

I resent you over and over for leaving me and

running away in the arms of another man.

For loving another man so much you had to leave me.

I loved you so very much.

I'd like to ask for forgiveness for what I did to this family.

Meeting a good match

is as difficult as a blind turtle finding

a piece of floating wood in the ocean.

While you were not meant to be with Kang Ju's grandfather

many years later...

Kang Ju and your granddaughter meeting was fate bringing them together.

I'd like to think of it as a precious

connection brought together by the heavens.

This is my bride, whom I've waited for 100 years,

the one who will help carry on our family name.

Mom?

The guest we've been waiting for is here.

It's me... Doo Rim...

Yes, I'm Doo Rim.

- Do you recognize me? - Doo Rim.

Yes, I'm Doo Rim.

What took you so long?

I waited so long for you.

I'm sorry... I'm really sorry.

Can you forgive me?

Kang Ju and I picked it out because we thought it'd look good on you.

You're all set!

How do I look?

Amazing! You look like a young and modern gentleman!

Thank you!

- Mother, father is all ready. - Is he?

You two look so good together!

You two will be the best looking couple at the dinner tonight.

After the dinner, we're going to spend the night at the cabin.

Okay.

Father, have a good time.

Now, shall we go?

Okay. We'll be back.

No need to follow us out.

- Have a safe trip. - Okay!

One of the ways we cure that these days is to

eliminate the biological cause of the problem.

Wow!

Yi Hyun look! My ugly hands are like silk now!

Wasn't this a little too much though?

I make a lot of money. The company is doing well.

Thank you Yi Hyun.

No need. I'm more grateful you came back.

Let's go.

Grandma, go on in and get some rest. I'll clean up the rest.

- Okay, thanks for your help. - Sure. Good night!

- Sae Joon! - Jin Joo!

Really quick... with me...

Let's talk.

What is it?

Is something wrong at home?

It's not that. It's just...

Are you cold? Why are you shaking so much?

You have something in there, don't you?

- What? No. - Let me see.

Jin Joo hold on...

I've been carrying it around in my pocket for over a month.

To give to me?

Yes.

What are you doing? Put it on me. Hurry.

Okay.

Jin Joo!

It's so pretty! This is really happening to me!

Oh yeah!

I prepared a lot of things I wanted to say last night.

And in the end I didn't get to say any of it.

It's good enough the way it is.

Today is the happiest I've been since I was born.

Oh yeah!

Go in and get some rest now.

You haven't taken a break since you woke up at the crack of dawn.

At that rate, you'll get sick.

Today is a special day.

I want to prepare the foods for the memorial ceremony myself.

Go ahead then.

Where should I put these?

Wow, I can't believe it!

Hi Jung In.

You watch the kid now, too?

The Great Choi Kang Ju?

I'm completely whipped by Na Doo Rim these days.

So cute.

Doo Rim, I bet Kang Rim will make quite a few girls cry when he gets older.

Don't worry. He's only going to have eyes for one girl too.

He takes after me.

Who's death anniversary is it today?

Hey! You came all the way here and you don't know?

Today is our great-great-grandfather's death anniversary!

Great-great-grandfather...

There's also one other person.

The woman who've made it possible for this family's heritage to live on.

It'll be our first time remembering her as well.

I feel like I completed a huge homework assignment.

I feel much better now.

If it wasn't for her, you may not have born

and in that case we may have never met.

I hope the woman who sent you to this world is in a much better place now.

There's something I want to know.

What is it?

Remember I asked you before, at the cabin?

When your heart raced for the first time after you met me.

When was it?

- You really want to know that badly? - Yes, I do.

Tell me now.

When was it...

The night we had dinner with our parents for the first time.

Oh no!

The night that you pulled my tie as you fell

in front of the restaurant and we kissed.

Really?

Then what about when you kissed me at Kang In's showcase?

It wasn't an act.

It just appeared that way.

Why are you looking at my like that?

I think I still get butterflies when I see you...

Of course!

Once you get lost in my charming

personality, it's hard to find yourself out.

Yes, of course, Mr. Choi Kang Ju.

I still get butterflies when I see you too.

Why is this so hard...

Ow my back...

This feels nice...

Oh my... welcome.

It's been such a long time, I'm about to cry.

I've never seen you smile. Do you have good news?

I finally enjoyed a memorial meal.

She did a great job preparing the meal, with a lot of care and love.

Congratulations! Congratulations again!

So... but...

There is something I'd like to know.

The two girls...

They're not related at all so how can they look so similar?

No matter how much I think about it, it's a mystery I can't seem to solve.

By chance...

My sweet Doo Rim. Doo Rim!

So pretty...

Yi Kyung, it's mommy.

Do you recognize me? My pretty child.

Those two girls are no longer the sun and the shadow.

They will set forth on their own paths as two separate rays of sunlight.

So now that you've resolved all your anger and emotions that kept you here...

will you be leaving for good now?

- Do you wish for me to leave? - Absolutely not!

Absolutely not.

Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?

You want to keep me here because business has been slow.

While I would love to ask you to stay...

Will you truly be leaving?

When you meet, you part ways but when you

part ways, you're bound to meet again.

Don't you think that's what makes the world go around?

I'm so sad.

Goodness...

Studying is the only way I'll live.

Where did Doo Rim go?

She was just here. Where could she have gone?

She said she wanted to learn about tea ceremonies and took all this out too.

Oh yeah! Go Stop!

Why won't you give me any pi's?

How can you put down a Go Stop pi right there?

I asked you for a pi!

What are you all doing here?

I thought you wanted to learn proper tea ceremony rituals.

I'm sorry.

Kang Ju asked me to play...

Kang Ju... You...

When did I do that? You wanted to teach dad to play...

Alkkagi and now Go Stop too?

Honey, sit down and try playing too. It's pretty fun!

Did you lose?

I'm usually not good at these things.

Hey, start a new game.

You know how to play Go Stop?

You think there's anything I don't know?

I'm good at everything except stealing.

What are you doing? Deal a new game.

Don't cry after you lose your money.

Kang Ju, give those to me. I'll start a new game.

Watch me closely.

How can you lose everything to the kids? That's so embarrassing.

Watch me play.

You did well.

I still have a long way to go if I want to get the deep taste that you brew.

I have something to tell you.

What do you think about giving Mr. Jang and Ms. Ahn a vacation?

Ms. Ahn misses her daughter a lot.

Is that so? I never thought of it.

Go ahead and do that.

Thank you.

It's the key to the outhouse.

I'd like you to take care of it from now on.

It means you're the new lady of this household.

No, I still have a lot to learn and...

Seeing how you take care of each and every person

working for you here, I'm confident you'll do well.

You have a grace unlike many others so I know you'll

carry on the family name very well in your own way.

Okay. I'll take good notes from you and make sure not to disappoint you.

Have you seen Kang Rim? He was playing in the room until just now.

He didn't come here?

That troublemaker. Did he go there again?

The outhouse?

He's so much like his father!

Kang Ju, it must really be spring now.

You're right.

Let's plant a few flower trees.

I want to plant a tree in Kang Rim's name.

For him to grow as tall as a tree.

Why are you looking at me like that?

You're not that good at shoveling Kang Ju.

I can learn to shovel.

It's more intense than a cat's grave.

It's a tree.

- Want to just hire someone? - No way!

It's Kang Rim's tree, I should do it. Absolutely not!

- No way. - Okay.

I'll make sure to tell Kang Rim that his dad planted it himself.

But where should we plant it?

I think it should be okay here.

Kang Ju, look over there! The flowers are blooming already!

You're right.

Let's go find a place for the tree.

[Thank you to everyone who've watched Bride of the Century.]
