[Episode 8]

Mom?

What happened? Why didn't you pick up?

I had my reasons for doing so.

- What reasons? - You don't need to know.

Mom, were you planning on meeting Yi Seul's parents?

I was supposed to.

Why?

Probably to get you married.

I don't understand it.

You're someone who is embarrassed of being greedy for things.

That kind of thing hurts your pride.

So why are you being like this now?

I'm not sure. Because I'm old?

Or... maybe because I have no time.

What in the world are you talking about?

I'm tired. Get next time.

Leave if you're done talking.

I do have something to say.

I've been seeing Haeng Ah.

I know that you're worried, but that's what I've decided.

Haeng Ah was scared and avoided me, but I grabbed onto her.

We went to see Uncle and told him everything.

- So... - You can't!

No, we can.

There's no reason we can't.

What happened with Uncle isn't Haeng Ah's fault.

All the hardship you went through...

That isn't Haeng Ah's fault.

I'm happy when I'm with Haeng Ah.

Now that I've given myself permission, I'm deliriously happy.

I get thinking that I would've had this earlier if it wasn't for you.

So don't oppose this now.

What if I still say I don't like it?

Are you going to say you won't see me again?

Mom...

you were going to throw Haeng Ah away too.

The first Parent's Day after Uncle died...

Haeng Ah made a carnation and was going to give it to you.

And she overheard everything you were saying on the phone.

"I'll throw her out if I have to."

Even after hearing you say that, she has never once resented you.

She says she likes you.

She wants to be good to you and...

What should I do?

I still don't like it.

I'm sorry I didn't marry Yi Seul like you wanted.

But I said I like this.

I said I'm happy.

Even when I was young and the house was so cold.

And I would sneak into your hospital and sleep in the patients' rooms.

Even when the kids would pick on me for not knowing my dad's name.

Even on holidays, we had no relatives, so I had only Haeng Ah to play with.

I never, ever felt unhappy.

Until the day you die and leave me alone, I'll never be unhappy.

So...

Stop trying so hard to put me into the rich world that you came from.

All I need is you by my side.

That's enough for today.

Leave.

Don't oppose us.

Don't tell us we can't.

Don't act like something bad will happen if we are together.

Don't place the blame of your past scars on Haeng Ah.

Say what you want to me.

But...

you can't do that to Haeng Ah anymore.

I told you to leave!

I want you to answer me and say that you won't do that to Haeng Ah.

You can stand there all night, but my feelings won't change.

Even if Haeng Ah were in this room, my answer would be the same.

I don't like it.

Ri Hwan's gone. Come out.

I have more to say to you.

The name of my disease is Early Onset Familial Alzheimer's.

"Early onset" means it is different than the kind affecting people at old age.

And the word "familial" means it can be passed down to family members.

The chance is fifty-fifty.

Ri Hwan doesn't look like me or have my personality.

He won't be like me.

However...

Aunt, that won't happen. If you think like that...

However, if that were to happen...

Ri Hwan needs to have many people by his side.

People who won't tire easily and will stick by him even if they do tire out.

Those who will be bonded to him even in death.

Even if they want to throw him out secretly in the middle of the night

people whose relationships keep them from doing so.

Most people call that family, don't they?

Wanting to throw away, but not being able to.

You know best about the necessity of those relationships, right?

Aunt...

- That's... - If you become Ri Hwan's family

Ri Hwan will have only one family member.

You know what I'm referring to, don't you?

Because you're smart, Haeng Ah.

I don't have time.

I have only months before other people start to catch on.

It will be even less before Ri Hwan catches on.

Aunt.

- Aunt. - Get going now.

No, I'll stay here tonight.

Go.

But...

Are you going to stay until I get angry just so you feel at ease?

Kim Haeng Ah!

Kim Haeng Ah, Kim Haeng Ah.

Kim Haeng Ah.

What's wrong?

I am okay.

I'll just get going.

Haeng Ah.

You can sleep more.

[Brother who loves Haeng Ah]

Who would hit it and just leave like this?

They probably didn't know.

In your next life, don't be born a pigeon.

Be born a seagull or an eagle.

Fly around freely where the air is good.

Fly freely.

One moment, Ji Hoon.

[Haeng Ah]

Yeah, are you done with work...

Why do you have Haeng Ah's phone?

I'll be right there.

Is something wrong with Haeng Ah?

I don't know. I'll be back!

Call if you need me!

Why do I have this bad feeling?

What happened?

I couldn't leave her alone.

I thought Haeng Ah might be uncomfortable if she found me here.

Why are you here!

Why don't you lower your voice? Haeng Ah is sleeping.

Shouldn't you be explaining?

I think you should be the one explaining.

She was fine until yesterday.

She was fine until this afternoon too.

Then what happened tonight?

Shouldn't you know what happened?

Didn't you say that being with me was like being pricked by a needle for her?

Yet she never fainted on the street while she was with me.

And I'm in a position where I won't make Haeng Ah wait for me anymore.

If Haeng Ah isn't so comfortable with you

I have no reason to send her away.

Thank you for calling me, but...

If Haeng Ah were able to go to a hospital

and if you were not a doctor, I would not have called you.

I called you here as a doctor.

Please, nurse her well.

Nothing happened at the station?

Shouldn't you tell me what's going on first?

Haeng Ah is sick.

How sick is she?

She fainted on the street.

Did you hear anything about her meeting someone yesterday evening?

- Where are you going? - To my aunt. I'll be back.

- What were you doing? - I called her...

What the heck were you doing while Haeng Ah was getting shredded?

Who else do you think could make Haeng Ah that way?

If you couldn't protect her from your mom, why did you start this with her?

- She wants to be good to you. - What should I do?

Even if Haeng Ah were here in this room, my answer would be the same.

I don't like it.

A bad omen is even scarier than an immediate terror.

There's one person who would completely understand that fear.

However...

That fear must be hidden until the end and I cannot be caught.

By that person, in particular.

Even in your sleep, do not be lonely.

You can sleep more.

Lie down.

I'm fine.

Last night, your pulse was irregular.

I'm okay now.

Sorry.

Why would you say that now?

Yesterday, I was busy and I didn't eat.

I was in a taxi and got carsick, so I opened the window and it rained.

At first it was just a few drops, but then suddenly...

Sorry.

Why would you be?

Just because. For everything.

What hurts more than hearing "Why did you hurt me?" is

someone who cannot even say she is hurting.

And not being able to say anything but "Do not be in pain."

See, I'm fine, right?

Are you okay?

Why wouldn't I be okay?

What kind of birthday is this?

Ah!

You're doing a live show today?

Yes.

Do you have to go to work?

Of course, I'm totally fine.

Also, the DJ told everyone that it's my birthday yesterday.

The listeners wrote birthday messages on the discussion boards.

I'm going to go receive all my birthday greetings.

I'll pick you up after work.

No, don't do that.

I'll see you at home.

I'm going to move to the third floor.

I thought about it and I think that would be best.

- I haven't spoken to Mom yet. - I'll talk to her.

You said your grandpa said okay.

Let's do it.

I'm going to do it.

It's my birthday.

Thank you.

Aunt.

Sun Young's coming down soon. You should get going.

Aunt, I brought my luggage. I'm going to move to the third floor.

Don't do that! It's not the right time.

I can't leave her alone.

I'll be here.

If you're here during the day, I'll be around in the evenings.

Haeng Ah, right now she needs to have peace of mind.

I'm busy just thinking about that.

Let's talk more at the store.

Get going before Sun Young comes.

Hurry, hurry.

Oh, you're out.

Wait in the car a moment. I'll bring your shoes.

Black is fine, right?

Black will be good.

Don't go anywhere and wait in the car.

There are three things that I never want to forget.

I'm going to say them multiple times so that I don't forget.

But if I do forget...

Tell me.

My father is very sick.

I need to tell him quickly that I'm sorry.

Ri Hwan shouldn't be with someone he has to protect.

He needs to marry someone who can protect him.

He must.

And the last thing.

That day...

I was really happy.

If I come to resent this world or curse others

and if I become depressed as if my life had always been unhappy

tell me.

Tell me that I had a day like that.

Hello.

I couldn't pick up earlier because there were people around.

I see.

- Senior, about yesterday... - Are you feeling better?

Are you okay?

Thanks for asking.

- Thank you. - Haeng Ah?

Yes.

Let's meet up and talk.

So we finally meet.

I'm Ko Jung Hyun from Channel Korea.

I'm Kang Seok Jun.

You're going to take it out again. Why are you burying it?

I've decided to accept that I can't have both things.

Tae Hee beat out alcohol.

Why do you have two bouquets?

Who's the other woman?

My mom. It's a sort of apology.

Ah, it sure is very colorful. It smells nice too.

Wash my hands for me.

I'm a bit late.

That's fine.

I'm sure it is. It's not like I didn't show up.

Please sit.

I'm very sorry about yesterday.

I've never been treated that way, so I was very taken aback.

A patient in your care died, you say?

Yes.

Ri Hwan's marriage, Taeyang Group, Hong Yi Seul.

Apologize for yesterday.

Lie that a patient died yesterday.

Is she thrifty or is she a bum?

What kind of tea would you like?

If there's anything that matches about them

your son is not interested in his grandfather's hospital and runs a tiny...

runs a small Eastern medicine clinic.

My daughter is not interested in Taeyang and runs a small dental clinic.

That's about it.

I heard that your daughter is a very easygoing, good person.

My son is as well.

You will know if you visit the dental clinic.

The interior and everything is cheap...

There is not one piece of marble in the office.

That's the kind of girl she is.

There are many who just want to marry her.

They are lined up to use her money once they are married to her.

My son even pays monthly rent to his grandfather.

Once he graduated school, he has never asked me for money.

What? A monthly rent?

He hasn't made enough money to buy his own house yet.

Oh my! It's not as if he's a stranger's child.

Then are you planning on having him live with you after he marries?

No, that will never happen.

But even still... How could he not have a house?

Taeyang Group wouldn't want the size of my father's inheritance.

If you wanted to control that foundation

I'm sure it's possible even without this marriage.

Yet you still wanted the marriage setup with my son.

I think you misunderstood.

It wasn't that I wanted it.

I believe it was because you recognized the good traits that my son has.

In his entire life, he has never been a bad son.

He is willing to make any sacrifice necessary to protect those by his side.

If you're a family that doesn't want someone like him

I do not want to send him to you either.

I know that this is sudden, but I came anyway.

Oh no.

But Ri Hwan must not have spoken to you.

Ri Hwan has someone else...

If you mean Haeng Ah, you don't have to worry.

Even if it's not you, she cannot be the one for him.

What I want to know is how you feel, Yi Seul.

Can you tell me that?

I...

I want to look good to Ri Hwan.

I want to become someone who suits him.

But I can't do something bad just because I want to have him, can I?

What if I ask you to?

I seem like a strange mother, don't I?

I force things because I want them.

I say no because I don't like it.

If you take out the word "mother," it's not that strange, isn't it?

You've met my mother, right?

Yes.

With my mom...

A woman, a person...

I lived my life trying to view her that way.

Some woman, some person...

can be weak and greedy.

She can blame another and take things out on another for pain she received.

Because she could not be strong and sacrificial...

and she could not understand everything

I could not call her bad.

Also...

you had Ri Hwan all on your own.

You may not want to talk about that.

Sorry for pretending to know about it.

I may seem like a strange mom, but don't worry about that.

I...

Soon I won't be in Ri Hwan's life anymore.

I have Alzheimer's.

Ri Hwan doesn't know.

I'll look for a way to help.

That's not why I told you.

No, I will look into it. I'll find out everything I can.

Why would you do that, Yi Seul?

Ri Hwan...

The only family Ri Hwan has...

Because I'm all he has?

What?

You didn't make any mistakes, did you?

Do you only see your sister?

What's with you? I gave birth to her too, you know.

I heard it and heard it, but I just couldn't believe it.

I'm not sure they are up to my standards. I'm looking around more.

If you get greedy with Yi Seul's marriage one more time

I won't let this go.

If you won't let it go, what? Just hang up!

I'm talking about other families.

Yi Seul's feelings are genuine.

It's the first time she's said she wants something.

Just leave it be.

Her sister never read a book and read magazines all day.

But at least she married well.

It's absurd enough that she'd live with a tiny Eastern medicine clinic owner.

He's some great son who's going to live with the mom.

It would be better if he had no parents at all.

What is she lacking?

I think I can take a guess.

Never mind. Go on in.

What should I do for you?

Nothing.

Even if you did something, nothing would change.

He's a good person and I like him.

And that's why there are so many reasons it wouldn't work.

What are the reasons? Let's hear them.

First, I like him because he's that good of a man.

There is already someone by his side.

Second.

Because he is a good person...

he would not throw away the person he likes for the things that I have.

Third.

If I really like that person...

I can't tell him to break up because of me.

Senior, do you want to sit on this side? People are looking.

It's all right.

Are you uncomfortable there?

No, I'm all right.

About yesterday...

I was going through a tough time.

Thanks for this. I'll enjoy eating it.

I'll be going then.

Around this time, last year...

you said you were sick.

Was it like last night?

I'm sorry.

You were so sick all alone.

I didn't even think about it.

No, I'm the one who shouted at you to leave quickly.

I'm not entirely sure what's going on.

If you're in a difficult situation...

Even if that's not the case...

If you want to...

If you can...

Again...

For all of that time you waited for me, I'll make up for it.

This is more than enough.

Thank you.

Oh, you scared me.

You have a cake too.

Did you steal that?

Why would I steal it? I told them and took it.

It's their thousandth day, so they have four cakes.

I'll be going now.

Well, can you move please?

I haven't received an answer yet.

There are many strange people at the station.

There are truly many, but you are the strangest of them all!

- What exactly is... - Aren't you going to answer?

Let me ask you. No, I have a question for you.

Why are you doing this to me?

I asked you first.

Hey, I'm a ninja, okay?

Do you see that? Do you? I'm your manager, okay?

Don't tell me things I know. Tell me something I don't know!

I can't and I won't. Why do I have to answer that?

Hey, enough.

Do you really believe that the pen is mightier than the sword?

Don't come closer.

"How is it wrong for a cat to eat a fish?"

"It's the owner who's stupid for leaving the fish with the cat."

"If you don't want someone coming in, lock your doors up well."

"Take a look at yourself."

"You've been sleeping with your front door, back door, and windows open."

"And now you call me a thief?"

"You better shut your mouth!"

"Do you know what it is I'm scared of?"

"Getting slapped by a lowlife like you? No way."

"The truly scary thing is"

"once I finish using this perfume, no one will love me."

"You are a crazy wench. I'm going to kill you today!"

"Move that cheap hand away. Do you know what kind of hair this is?"

"You could sell sprouts for 100 days and still can't afford my hair salon."

"With the money your husband gave me!"

"Oh, today I'll pull out all of your expensive hair!"

Oh! Save me, save me!

What is it? What!

Gosh, you startled me!

We're running lines for Se Young's TV drama.

Didn't you skip a live show because you didn't want to do that drama?

Well, the role is bigger than I had originally thought.

What is the story about with such a weird title?

[Nine: Nine Affairs]

There's a special perfume.

If you spray it, you can seduce married men, single men, everyone.

But you can only spray this perfume nine times.

It has 20 episodes.

Every couple episodes, I'll get hit and my hair pulled.

And you're going to play that role?

I'm long past the image of the nation's little sister.

With my image this way, I'm not exactly the nation's mom either.

Since things turned out this way, I'm aiming to be the nation's bitch.

This world only acknowledges first place, so I want to be first place too.

I thought you had a movie offer. Why don't you do that?

What kind of movie is it?

It's the opposite. Her husband is stolen away.

By another man.

It's a queer movie?

It's called "That Man, That Man."

But it's not getting investments, so production will be difficult.

Just wait and see.

Within this year, I'll become the most hated person in this country.

I'm going to work hard until I go to a restaurant and they kick me out.

You wait and see.

You still think I'm the strange one?

I feel like I'm watching a world champion competition in front of me.

You still haven't answered.

Do you like me?

Okay, I'll answer.

You just need an answer, right?

I...

Doctor Park is on temporary leave.

On leave?

Doctor Park's son.

- Hello. - Yes, it's been a while.

Let's talk.

Okay.

There will be a change every day.

With Doctor Park, her memory is so good memory loss will set in later.

Once it starts, it progresses faster than for others.

You can't push her too hard.

But you can't leave her alone either.

You probably know this, but she's a patient who has attempted suicide.

And Doctor Park did attempt suicide two times.

Did you say two times?

Besides the time I was in junior high?

Even after that?

No, long before that.

Was it...

when she got pregnant with me?

[Hoon & Hwan Clinic]

Why are you drinking coffee so late in the day?

My mind felt hazy. I was just having half a cup.

Give it to me. I'll throw out the rest.

I forgot the yogurt. I'll make it again.

I guess you forget too, Mom.

Let's go.

Are we going to the hospital cafeteria?

No, let's head out.

Mother, the yogurt from yesterday is still here too.

You forgot to take it in. I'll leave it here.

Stop yelling. My mom will get a headache.

You had made plans to meet her?

You didn't send the car without notice?

Then she wouldn't do that.

You still can't reach him?

- No. - Gosh, this is unlike him.

I told you I'm not taking your song request.

How many times do I have to tell you that's not how you spell "one drink"?

That's not why I'm calling today.

I can't get in touch with Ri Hwan.

We have a lot of appointments.

You know very well that Ri Hwan is not like that.

I was wondering if Haeng Ah knew something.

Yeah?

Last night, Ri Hwan called me.

Did you tell him that I met Aunt?

I was just so angry.

Sorry.

Why would you be?

Just because. For everything.

I see.

You can't beat that woman.

Every time I said I didn't like her, you said you understood her.

You feel sorrier for her than you do for yourself.

Though you can beat bad people, you can't beat the ones you pity.

And Ri Hwan? He's worse than you.

You know what kind of mom she is to him.

She sacrificed so much because of him.

Just admit defeat and get out.

Before you get shredded up even more.

Aunt is sick.

So what?

Everyone is sick!

It's not that. She's very sick.

Don't feel useless pain for others. I don't want to see that crap.

Why aren't you smiling?

You usually smile like a crazy person in times like these.

So why aren't you smiling?

I haven't picked out the first song for part three yet.

I can't think of one.

What were you listening to when you wrote it?

If you can't think of anything...

Kim Kwang Seok.

"Too Painful A Love Was Not Love."

Aren't you cold?

No, it's just right.

Hold on.

Wait and see.

Wow!

It's like we're in a different world.

Wow.

Should we go on a vacation?

Oh, I was going to say that too.

Where do you want to go? Can you get time off?

Anywhere! First, check when Aunt can get time off.

The three of us?

Yeah, not a group travel thing, but just the three of us.

We should do absolutely nothing.

Just sleep in, eat, and talk all day... something like that.

That kind of vacation is more memorable than the kind spent walking everywhere.

We could do that.

I want Aunt to laugh excitedly.

I can't recall seeing her that way.

When do you think Aunt was the happiest?

I'm not sure.

Maybe when she got pregnant with you?

They say mothers are happiest in that moment.

Or when they first hear their baby's heartbeat.

I wonder if that's true.

Most average women say it's their wedding or...

How about you?

When were you the happiest?

For me...

I'm not telling you.

And you?

For me, it's right now.

Me too.

What is that?

Sorry, but I can't see you today.

I have to hang out with work people.

How do you feel?

I'm totally fine.

Okay, see you tomorrow then. Have fun.

Okay.

- Haeng Ah? - Yes?

Happy Birthday.

Thank you.

You and Aunt are everything I have.

You won't ever lose everything you have.

I won't ever let you lose it.

However, if that were to happen...

Ri Hwan needs to have many people by his side.

People who won't tire easily and will stick by him even if they do tire out.

Those who will be bonded to him even in death.

Even if they want to throw him out secretly in the middle of the night

people whose relationships keep them from doing so.

Most people call that family, don't they?

Wanting to throw away, but not being able to.

You know best about the necessity of those relationships, right?

If you don't like me, you can tell me that.

We can go back to the way things used to be.

But if you're just scared, let's be together.

I don't have time.

I have only months before other people start to catch on.

It will be even less before Ri Hwan catches on.

When were you the happiest?

And you?

For me, it's right now.

Me too.

I was scared that Mom wouldn't come.

What can I do? Mom still has work to do.

Can you play at the store with Aunt, Uncle, and Haeng Ah?

You promised to protect Mom, so how can you cry like this?

He was playing just fine and then he fell asleep for a moment.

He must have had a bad dream. He said he was scared.

What did I say to do when you are scared?

You said to count to ten.

Do you think you can do it?

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

One. Two.

Three.

One.

Two.

One.

One.

Two, three!

Surprise!

Happy birthday, Producer Kim!

Happy birthday!

I'm sorry.

I'm just... I'm just so happy.

You startled me.

Why did you cry so intensely?

I thought someone died or something.

I'm sorry.

Well, I suppose you didn't even get a cake from your boyfriend last year.

This year you have a star like me and all the listeners.

Stop crying!

Now, we're a family, family, family!

Next year, let's make sure we remember Producer Kim's birthday.

Family is supposed to do stuff like that.

Okay.

I'm fine.

Haeng Ah...

[Don't Mind Stains, Don't Mind Scars, Just Don't Disappear]

I was really happy that day.

If I come to resent this world or curse others

and if I become depressed as if my life had always been unhappy

tell me.

Tell me that I had a day like that.

Here you go.

Are the kids still fighting?

I guess so.

They are over the top.

When are they going to get past those years?

Don't you think they'll be like that forever?

What brings you by suddenly?

Just because.

You wouldn't have reason to come to the hospital.

Can't I come here?

Who says you can't come? You can live here if you want.

Can I really do that?

Huh?

I'm kidding.

I've made you wait too long, haven't I?

It's too late anyway.

You're going to live a long, long time.

Yeah, we have a long time left.

Once the kids grow up a bit and once I...

You are telling me to wait though, right?

You're not telling me I shouldn't wait at all, right?

Aunt, I'm going crazy because of Ri Hwan.

What's wrong with him?

Uncle, do you know what she gave to a girl I like?

I told you it wasn't me.

It was Woo Bin who gave it to her.

- You told him to do it. - Do you have proof?

Do you have proof of that?

You're so dumb falling for that girl's pure and innocent act.

What about you? Why do you like that slimy guy?

You made such a fuss in the gym.

Is he Cha In Pyo or what?

Why is he shaking his finger?

Don't say that about my brother Jung Woo!

Why do you call him that? Is your last name Hong?

Uncle, she changed her last name.

You two get out and come back after fighting.

Can't you see your mom is eating? Stop making a fuss.

I'm going to eat too.

That's my seat.

Sit over here.

Aunt, Ri Hwan has really bad taste in women.

He'll bring home someone really weird later.

Fine, you wait and see who I bring home.

Why would I wait and see? I don't have any interest at all.

Wait a minute.

And that day started like this.

It was a day that was like any other.

Senior suddenly came to see me.

I went running out the front doors of the hospital.
