Hey.

Episode 47

Yeah.

- Bro. - I know.

He's from my school. Let's go to my office.

Ok.

We have to check in, Father. Mom, we'll be back.

How did you know?

I'm sorry. I couldn't stay away.

I didn't mean that. I'm glad you came. Thank you.

Mom, what are you talking about?

Geum, are you awake? How are you?

What are you doing here?

Why did you come?

Go.

You're sick. How could I not?

Go.

Go!

I'll get some water. Stay.

Mom, what's wrong with you?

Stay. Don't leave us alone.

He'll leave now.

What are you waiting for?

You seem fine Getting all worked up and throwing fits.

I'll go, so don't waste your energy yelling.

Don't be so patronizing. Don't come again.

Never.

I wasn't joking that day. I don't wanna see you again.

This isn't respectful to Joon-Ho either.

Ok. I'll go, so stop getting mad and lie down.

I'll go.

Mom. What's wrong with you? I told you not to tell him.

Geum.

You're insulting Joon-Ho as well as me and Kyung-Woo.

You told me to start over with Joon-Ho.

Why did you change your mind again?

I didn't blame you for my breaking up with him. I understood you.

But if you drag him in again, I'll really hate you.

I'll blame you for making me sick by breaking us up.

Ok. Lie down.

Hello?

This is Kyung-Woo. I wanna talk to you. I'm at the desk.

Ok. I'll be there.

The nurse called me. I'll be back.

Ok.

Let's go over there. I have something to tell you.

Ok. Me too.

I wanna get your permission.

The most urgent thing is to find a donor.

I wanna look for her birth mother with your permission.

I thought about it, but I heard parents and children don't match.

They didn't, but more successful cases are reported due to medical progress.

If they can't find a donor till the end, they transplant between parents and kids.

I think the earlier the better.

Of course. You need information then.

Yes. That's why I called you.

'Hope orphanage' at Kyung-Gi Do.

She was left there at a year old, born in 1979. Her name is Yun-Soon Lee.

Will this be enough?

I'll try.

I'll go then.

Wait.

Come whenever you want to. Don't mind me anymore.

Ok.

I feel very ashamed. I know how much you'd be angry at me, but...

No.

I'm angry at myself. You have no idea.

I suggested breaking up first. I gave up first.

I know my husband asked you to.

Still, if I can't make everyone happy, I should protect the ones I can.

I'm gonna repeat that mistake again.

Whatever happens, I'm not letting her go.

I'll make sure she lives.

We have a better chance of success when patients are in good condition.

So the priority is to find a donor.

We're looking for a general donor, but ask your family and relatives.

She'll get worse because no medicine works.

Ok. I see.

She doesn't need chemo yet, but she will soon.

Before the transplant for sure.

Ok.

She has good spirit and energy, so if we find a donor soon, we'll have good results.

Ok.

Sit.

How probable is a complete cure from a transplant?

Father. Numbers don't mean anything.

How probable?

Less than 50%.

35% for blastic phase In general.

Don't worry. She'll be fine. They're just numbers.

Of course she will.

But if mom asks, don't give her exact numbers. Tell her it's about 70 or 80%.

Ok.

Are you really going back to the hospital?

Yes. Next week on. I met some professors.

How come? You said you'd become an actor no matter what.

You don't like it?

Things changed.

I can help her. If I didn't and she got worse, I'd regret it.

Is that all?

And you opposed strongly. And I might not be talented either.

You figure that out now? After wasting a year and getting kicked out?

Does it matter anyhow? What matters is I came back to the hospital.

Aren't you going back?

I will.

I have an appointment. I'll be back.

We decided on Hwang's character unanimously.

Let's call it a day.

- Hwang. - Yes.

I suggested hiring you as a regular and the director seemed positive.

Maybe you'll hear good news soon.

Thank you so much.

Congrats.

- You did a good job. Congrats. - Thank you.

- Let's go home. - Thank you.

- See you later. - Bye.

Many calls.

Aunt, did you call? I was in a meeting.

Oh my... How is Geum?

Ok. Which room?

This is all I know. I'll go to Geum's uncle's, so you go to the orphanage.

Ok. They look for people with DNA info these days.

Only when her birth mother's DNA info is registered.

So we need her address and name the most.

Let's ask Mr. Kim. He worked on a show that finds people.

I already did. I'll tell you.

Hi. I'm Kyung-Woo Ko, a program director at HBC. Here's my card.

I came to see Geum Lee's uncle. We have questions about her birth mother.

He's in the Philippines. We don't know either. It's been more than 30 years.

Her father died, and he's the only one who might know about her mother.

Geum is now in the hospital. She has leukemia.

We have to find her birth mother.

Leukemia? Goodness...

Please let me see him.

He's really on a trip. He's back at the end of this month.

You don't remember anything? Name, neighborhood or school, whatever.

Her life depends on it.

It was before I got married.

Wait.

- Where are you? - They have only her father's name here.

It's ok. I found out. Where are you?

It's closer to you. Go to Kwang-Ju police station.

She gave birth at 20, so she must be 51 now.

Name is Hyun-Ja Song.

Her late father saw her there 10 years ago.

- Tae-Young! - Ki!

What brings you here?

I decided to go back to hospital.

I did.

Are you disappointed? At my giving up so easily.

No. That's great. I don't care whatever you do.

I know how much you agonized and tried.

Thank you.

You're really something.

You made me take the intern exam without hurting my pride.

You put up with all my frustration, and bore with me.

Really?

Really.

Then hold me.

What should we do? Hwang's baby is growing, but you mean so much to me.

What shall we do?

Hello.

Mom. Um...

- Follow me. - Mom...

- Follow me! - Okay, okay, I will.

Bye.

- You little... - It hurts.

- Hurry up! - Ki.

Please let go of me.

- Mom, please let go my ear. - You shameless little...

How dare you at the gate?

- Ow, it hurts... - It hurts?

Who was that? Who?

You wouldn't know.

It was dark, but he looked familiar. Who is he?

You couldn't have seen him.

You only look more suspicious.

Who is it? I know him, don't I?

Fess up! Who is he?

Mom. Did you know Hwang's pregnant?

What?

What? How did you know?

So you knew?

What did you say? Who got pregnant?

No... when did you come?

Here.

- How far along? - 5 months now.

5 months...

He divorced without knowing she's pregnant?

How could he know without Hwang telling him?

- Why didn't she tell him? - Isn't it obvious?

Tae-Il had a date and she got desperate.

It's not that. She found out after 4 months.

Shut up! What do you know?

Why did you meet her anyway?

You be quiet.

So is it Tae-Il's child for sure?

She wouldn't lie about that.

I think not. If she says so.

Nonsense. She lied to us about Hyo-Eun for 7 years.

I'm back.

So you signed the divorce paper without knowing at all?

Yes. She wouldn't lie about that.

Idiot.

Be quiet.

That aside... What are you gonna do?

Why did you meet Miss Kim even after you knew?

Tell me.

Honey. Why do you say that?

Stay quiet.

Tell me.

Honestly I don't know.

I was very perplexed by the news.

I wanted to move on, and that's why I dated Miss Kim.

But I heard she's 5 months pregnant so I was very angry.

I told her to give up on me, but...

But what? It's over.

But I don't know if I can ignore it till the end. Nor if I should.

What do you mean?

You can remarry Yoon-Soo. You have to get over Hwang no matter what.

You're better off without her. She's leeching off of you.

- Mom! - Mom!

Your life is as important as the baby's. You don't have to sacrifice it for the child.

Once the couple loses trust, it's over. Right, honey?

So what exactly are you saying?

Give me some more time.

I'm still confused. Time will tell.

I made it clear.

Not to get back together with her while I'm alive.

- Where are you going? - On a business trip.

Filming? For how long?

3, 4 days.

You want dinner?

I have no appetite. I have to hurry. Bye.

That uncaring jerk.

I'm dying with a cold, but he didn't even ask about it.

Goodness...

Here.

It's ok.

Hey.

Hey.

I heard you collapsed. How are you feeling?

I'm fine.

Oh, good. Go home with mom.

I wanna rest alone, but she won't leave.

How long will you keep this up? How can I leave you?

I can be alone. I can move, so why not?

You weren't interested when I struggled.

You're always too late. Always when it's not needed.

You tell me to meet him when I can't.

You want to stay when I don't need you.

Mom. Did you argue with her?

She's mad. Because I told her to see Kyung-Woo again.

She's mad at me and at her illness.

I understand how terrible she must feel.

It's ok. Who else can she take it out on? Go.

Ok.

Mother. I found a clue about her birth mother and requested a search.

She's in Kwang-Ju. They will send out letters to people of her age to confirm.

You can go with me tomorrow to check them and prove your relationship.

I see. Thank you. We might find her.

Why are you carrying that big bag?

I packed to stay here with her.

Go. She's alone.

Ok.

Why did you come again?

I'm gonna stay over. I bought some sushi for you.

What's wrong with you? Why are you ignoring me?

You ate? I haven't.

Do you think I'm rejecting you for your sake?

I'm not in a position to be that considerate.

- It's hard enough to take care of myself. - That's why you need me more.

Do you think I'm laughable because I'm sick? Why do you ignore what I say?

Geum. Don't get upset.

Mr. Ko. Please go.

Why do you wanna make the same worst mistake I did?

I thought it would help you.

Your family meant so much to you...

...so I thought I was helping you by breaking up with you.

You wanna make the same mistake? You wanna regret like I do?

Why don't you see we feel the same?

Why do you think what I want is different from what you want?

I don't understand at all. I don't even remember.

I passed the chronic phase long ago, and am about to become acute.

- Geum. - You don't get it?

My life is tough enough already!

Does Mi-Ja eat well these days?

I'll pack some for her.

When do the results of your tests come out?

It takes 10 days but I asked them to return them quickly.

Joon-Ho wasn't a match.

Yeah? What now?

I heard it's hard to find a matching donor.

Yes. Mi-Ja and Kyung-Woo are looking for Geum's birth mother.

They are? That's great.

I heard the success rate of parent-child transplants improved.

You studied a lot, huh?

It did, and if we find her mother, we might find her siblings, too.

I can't hope for more.

Ah, her documentary airs today.

Today?

We have to watch it.

We have good news. Hwang will be a full time employee.

Aunt.

What? It's good to share good news. You said it's certain.

What is it? Tell us.

It's not certain yet, but I think I may be hired as a regular. The chief hinted at it.

That's good news for once.

Great. Congrats.

Yeah. You worked hard.

Good!

We haven't laughed for a long time.

- Did you play piano well? - Yes.

What did you do while waiting?

- I did yoga for pregnant women. - Right.

- What is it? - Yoga? It's an exercise.

Mom, who is she? Do you know her?

Let's go.

Hi, Yoon-Soo.

Let's meet now. I'll be there.

I'll go. I have a question.

I'll introduce you. This is Yoon-Soo Kim.

Hello.

- Mom, the bus came. - Okay.

Mom!

Mom!

Mom, what's wrong?

I'm fine. My tummy hurts a little.

Call uncle. He's at home.

Tell him to pick me up. Quick.

'Hwang Lee'

What's up?

Dad, it's me. You're in Korea now, right?

Mom is sick. She says her tummy is killing her.

Where are you?

Her real name is Yun-Soon Lee. That's all I know about her birth mother.

Thank you. Call me.

Geum. When did you come?

What are you doing? Are you looking for my birth mother?

Yeah. With Kyung-Woo.

Mom. Why do that with him?

You want me to just watch?

How could you do that without asking me? I told you not to involve him!

Stop pretending.

What if he really leaves you? You're not gonna regret it?

I know you're trying to torment me by tormenting yourself.

It's not that.

Don't deny it. I'm your mother.

He suggested finding your mother. The first day.

He promised to make you recover. And never to part.

Just see him. You can't live without him.

Look what happened to you after you broke up.

I think it was just a temporary thing. Let's see.

The baby is fine.

And kicks well too.

The condition stabilizes after 5 months...

...but you've miscarried before, so be careful.

He's stretching. Can you see?

The baby becomes very active after 5 months.

Look at him suck his finger.

Dad!

- Dad. - Have you been well?

- Are you Ok, mom? - Yeah, I'm Okay now.

Come down. He has to go.

Come on. He has to go.

Put her down.

Hyo-Eun. Hurry up.

Also, I told you to call uncle, not dad.

Dad. Put me down.

- Why would you take it out on her? - She deserved it.

You lied, too, that dad was in the US.

'Yoon-Soo Kim'

I'll go. Thank you for today.

I'm sorry I bothered you. It won't happen again.

Hyo-Eun, say bye to dad.

Bye, dad.

Bye.

Take it. Bye.

Hello? Yoon-Soo.

I'm here, at the lobby.

I see.

Hello? Tae-Il?

Yeah. In fact I'm outside and I can't go back. I'm sorry.

Let's meet tomorrow. I'm sorry.

I'll call you later.

Get in. I'll give you a ride.

- It's ok. I'll take a taxi. - Just get in.

Come on.

'Yoon-Soo Kim'

If you're ok, can we talk?

Hyo-Eun. Go in first. I'll go soon.

Since when?

She was chronic for a year without a problem, but she suddenly got worse.

Ok. I'll take the test, too.

Thank you. We're so desperate.

Thank you.

It's not likely I'll match.

Still, I appreciate it.

Can I go see her?

Of course. She'll be happy to see you. She liked you a lot.

How could...

No. She'll be fine.

She has to.

I was so mean to her.

I was never a good sister to her. She has to be fine.

I believe in miracles.

And one more thing.

Go ahead.

'Yoon-Soo Kim'

You could've taken it.

It's ok. Go ahead.

I got over it.

I don't want to hold on to someone who has no interest in me.

So don't feel responsible for the baby or me and start over.

Just promise to let me raise the baby. That's all I want.

Start over.

You deserve a new life.

You're really a good person.

Why won't he pick up? It's been days.

I'm getting more upset. He should've let me know his itinerary at least.

Hello? Is this the production department?

This is Kyung-Woo Ko's mother.

Can you tell me where he went for his business trip?

What? He's not on a business trip?

Then he came to work?

I see.

'Your call has been transferred...'

Hello?

Hello? Is this Coach Geum Lee's residence?

She isn't here.

She's in the hospital. Who is this?

She's in the hospital? Which one is it?

Thank you.

That jerk... he couldn't have possibly...

Thank you.

It's me.

Did my HLA test results come out?

Not yet? What's taking so long?

Ok. Bye.

It didn't come out yet?

You aren't taking it? You should.

What, you don't want to?

Of course I do. I'll do it.

Let's hurry. It's time for it to air.

Passionate coach Geum Lee of Silk Road High.

This school has no proper training facility and is notorious for its lack of support.

Her only way to overcome thisis day after day of training.

With chronic myelogenous leukemia, she must take medicine regularly.

'We love you!'

'I love you, too!'

Placing her students second in nationals, she overcomes her poor support.

The white blood cell count dropped a lot.

I see.

Are you relieved now?

That's good. The white blood cell count dropped again. She's smiling again.

How do you feel?

Good of course. Ecstatic.

What if this happens again?

Right. It might.

If white blood cell count suddenly rises, and I have to take more medicine...

It's a scary thought.

I guess I have to fight again.

At first, fast runners catch my attention, but as time passes steady runners win.

I have to fight till the end.

I tell the kids never to give up. I should do the same.

Everyone has his own pace of living. The tortoise was slow, but he beat the rabbit.

She believes she will win some day.

You can find the passionate coach Geum Lee at Silk Road High.

Why did you come again?

Because I missed the passionate coach Geum Lee.

Did you see the show?

Then you should've at least texted me thank you.

For your reference...

...someone I know got divorced because the wife criticized his show.

How was it?

Why are you so stubborn?

I'll get worse and uglier.

Do you think I'd want to show it to you?

Don't worry. You weren't a beauty anyway.

I have to shave my hair for the chemo.

My eyes will be cloudy. It'll just get worse. You wanna see that?

Ok. I'll try not to see you like that. Ok?

I might die.

I might die. Do you know that?

- I do. - You do?

And you still do this?

Right. You want to stay with me because I'll die soon anyway.

Don't ever say that.

I love you.

It's because I love you. Do you need more?

Just tell me to hold you, you fool.

I feel good. Ecstatic.

I heard your daughter is here. Is my son there?

Your silence tells me he is.

Kyung-Ja. Let's talk.

Talk? About what?

Move over. Move!

Kyung-Ja, don't. Let's talk!

Don't, please.

Just go back. She's very sick.

I beg you. Just go back.

Would you?

Let go. Let go!

You witch! It's true you made me barren!
