[Episode 105]

Please...

Goodness...

Why do you want to write a poem in your introduction?

Just compose a poem with the content I have here.

Seung-geun, what are you doing?

In-sung recommended me to this company.

I have to send my resume, but I wanted to do something

different with my self introduction.

He keeps asking me to write a poem for him.

Write your resume properly.

Why do you need a poem for it?

I wrote it the way others did and never got hired.

You don't know anything, Dad.

Please help me, sir. Please?

All right, then. Oh, what the heck.

I'll do what I can.

Sure.

'I was born with a loud cry.

People called me a fighter.

They called me president material.

While others studied the Korean alphabet,

I was already studying the English alphabet.

While others were barely counting 1, 2, 3, 4,

I was already doing multiplication.

But I have no interest in joining big companies.

I don't care for bar exams either.

All I ever want is to be hired at Yongpyo Corporation.'

What do you think?

Good!

Write this down.

Okay.

'I was born with a loud cry.'

Hey.

'People called me a fighter.'

Gosh...

Jung-ie, you're not even going to say goodbye?

Aren't you overworking yourself?

It's all right.

I'm happy to meet people who need my counseling.

See you later.

Ji-sung. Are you busy?

No.

How did you know I work here?

Wow.

You're doing well, aren't you?

Hee-sung, you got even prettier.

Is it because you're in love?

Did you hear from In-sung?

Yeah. I heard that Mom's completely against it.

Ji-sung.

I need you to be my witness.

Witness for what?

[Marriage Registration Form]

Marriage registration?

Marriage registration?

Just what are you thinking?

What do you think I'm thinking?

Just sign right here where it says, 'witness.'

[Ma Ji-sung]

Ma Ji-sung?

Yeah. She signed it for me.

She wished me the best of luck, too.

You want to register your marriage

before getting Mom's approval?

I don't need her permission.

It's my marriage anyway.

What did Hyun-woo say?

Did he agree with you on this?

He doesn't know yet.

But I'm sure he'll agree to what I say.

Don't do this.

Persuade Mom and get her permission.

Why should I?

You only got her permission after lying about being pregnant.

Lying is worse.

Anyway, you owe me,

so you should pay me back this way.

If I didn't make you that notebook for expectant mothers,

you think Mom would've ever believed you?

I'll pay you back with some other way.

This is clearly wrong.

In-sung!

After saying all those hurtful things to Dad,

if you go as far as to register your marriage,

how are you ever going to face Mom and Dad again?

Rethink this matter.

In-sung!

Hee-sung, what are you doing here?

Jung-geun...

What's wrong?

Things aren't going well with Kang Hyun-woo?

Mother is really against you two, huh?

Oh, gosh...

Jung-geun...

Huh? What?

Jung-geun...

Come in.

Sir.

They fixed it quickly.

Some circuit was disconnected.

Thanks for doing this for me.

Doctor...?

I heard this rumor...

That Dr. Ma will go to America with you.

It's true. We're leaving together.

I'm very much in love with Dr. Ma.

Are you satisfied with my answer?

Sure... Bye, sir.

I'm texting you since you didn't call me back.

Please call me back.

The kids are looking down on me.

So they like Mr. Ma, the poet

and the doctor sister-in-law better than me?

Gosh, I almost forgot that it's my birthday tomorrow.

[Birthday]

Are you done with helping Seung-geun?

Yes, but...

I mean, I wrote it for him since he asked me to,

but I don't know if it'll work.

If the interviewer knows a thing about poems, he'll like it.

But if he's an ignorant interviewer who knows nothing about it,

he won't like it.

You can't label everyone who doesn't know about poetry as ignorant.

Well, poetry is all about expressing one's feelings.

So those who have a big heart can't dislike poetry.

Oh, and Mr. So...

I'm very sorry about last night.

I was so upset yesterday that I raised my voice at Jung-ie.

But thank goodness she came back home.

She was the sweetest girl,

but who would've guessed she'd change like that?

I barely got her to come home this time,

but one day she'll leave home...

Yes.

I thought I could always be a dad to my girls,

but one day I saw that they've already left me.

And they think I'm the most incompetent and useless dad.

What do you mean?

Whether a dad is incompetent or not,

and whether he has a temper or not,

once a dad, always a dad.

You're right.

Just like once a Marine, always a Marine, right?

Of course.

Gosh, time is passing by so fast.

Yeah. It sure passes fast.

Thanksgiving is over already, and it's already pretty cold.

Tomorrow is already October 15th.

On the lunar calendar, it's September 3rd.

Oh, goodness!

He's finally contacting me!

Whose text is it?

Oh. Listen to this.

'I'm sorry for contacting you back so late.

I was a bit busy.

I'll call you again tomorrow.'

I don't know what he does, but he sounds so polite.

He must've grown up to be a great guy.

Please call me tomorrow.

I'll be waiting.

Hello?

I was actually just about to call you.

I'll be at your house.

Let's see your parents together.

I'm not home right now.

Let's meet first. Let's talk.

Come in.

How have you been?

Oh...

I'm sorry. It's my working hour.

If you have something to say, call me later.

I'm not here to chat.

I reserved one year of consultation from you.

What?

I'll refer you to another counselor.

Please don't do that.

Just think of me as a person who needs

Professor Ma Ji-sung's consultation.

Then, you have to treat me like your counselor.

I'm already doing that, Professor Ma Ji-sung.

Fine.

Mr. Baek Woo-jae, let's start the session.

Finish the sentences with whatever comes to your head.

Yes, ma'am.

Hello, In-sung?

How can you sign Hee-sung's marriage registration form?

What was I supposed to do?

She says she's willing to give up everything to be with him.

So? You didn't sign it?

No way.

If I do, she'll run and register her marriage first.

If Mom finds out, we'll both be dead.

What's wrong?

Hee-sung came by here to ask me to sign

as a witness for her marriage registration form.

And Ji-sung signed the papers for her.

I know what she's thinking.

I bet she wants to make me and Ji-sung her team

and demand Mom to listen to us.

But since I didn't sign it, there's nothing she can do.

Hey, In-sung...

I signed the other one for her.

What?

I signed the witness part of the form.

What? Jung-geun!

What's wrong with everyone?

Jung-ie.

Huh? Study abroad?

Yes.

How do I go about it?

Does it require lots of money?

Is there something in particular you want to study?

No, not really.

I just want to study abroad.

Come on, that's not a good enough reason.

You know how hard it is to study abroad?

Yeah, I guess that's just not within my reach.

I'm from a poor family, and I was a poor student...

I didn't mean it like that.

You can study abroad right now if you really wanted to.

Fine. Tell me honestly.

Why do you want to study abroad?

Sun-jae studied abroad and all of his friends did, too.

But I'm the only one like this.

Do you want me to help you study abroad?

Yes, as soon as possible.

What do I have to do?

For today, think about what you're good at

and what you really want to do.

Then I'll find a way for you to study abroad.

Thanks, In-sung!

Dr. Kang!

Hey.

Why did you want to meet here?

And what's with that bag?

I left my house.

I'm not going back there again.

My parents think I'm living with you anyway.

So there's no need to hesitate.

Let's register this.

[Marriage Registration Form]

Marriage registration?

I got two witnesses to sign.

If we register this, we'll be legally married.

You're going to do this without your parents' approval?

My sister and brother-in-law signed right here.

They said they'd support us.

Come out.

Dr. Kang...

Dr. Kang... Let go of me.

We're going to leave the country soon anyway.

You're going with me, aren't you?

You're not taking an assistant with you,

but the woman you love, right?

If we leave without your parents' consents,

that makes me nothing more than your colleague!

I already explained this to you a few days ago.

Yes.

That's why I came clean to my parents.

Isn't that enough?

We didn't get your parents' approval yet!

Even though we tried, what did we get in return?

We were slapped and got yelled at.

Let me ask you one thing.

If my parents refuse to give us permission

were you going to break up with me?

Why can't you answer me?

Were you thinking of breaking up with me?

I have no intention of breaking up with you.

Then how are you going to get my parents' approval?

We're going to leave soon,

and I quit the hospital to go with you.

And now I'm about to cut all ties with my parents.

So if you don't hold me tightly,

I'll have no ground to stand on.

If we don't register our marriage today,

I'm going to kill myself.

Ma Hee-sung!

Ma Hee-sung!

Ma Hee-sung!

Are you all right?

Hee-sung, please don't do this.

What's the matter with you?

Don't you know why?

Why won't you hold me closely?

Why can't you love me and hold on to me?

You make me feel like I'm the only one chasing after you.

I love you to death. That's why I'm doing this.

Because I want to treat you better.

I want to treat you preciously.

Then how did you marry your wife?

You knew she was very ill, but you still protected her.

So why can't you do that for me?

I never said I couldn't do that.

Why are you so nervous?

I'm not nervous.

I just want to be your wife.

Not your colleague, not your girlfriend,

not Ha-young's primary doctor.

But your wife who will always be there for you.

All right.

Let's go.

Let's go and register.

Doctor, I think I have to go home.

I just have so much to do.

Ma'am, your health is the most important thing.

If you don't get a blood dialysis, you'll be in danger.

Just what's wrong with me?

Normal creatinine level is 1, but yours is 10.

And other levels are showing danger signs.

What I mean is, your blood is filled with waste.

If you don't take any action, it could be life-threatening.

For the blood dialysis,

we must insert a catheter into your body,

and for that we need your written consent

on the catheter insertion and blood dialysis.

During the blood dialysis, we could stop the process due to

low blood pressure, a wrong decision, vomiting, headaches, cramps,

chest pains and other complications.

In extreme cases, you could go into shock.

Since you don't have a guardian,

you must sign the form yourself for us to begin.

Doctor...

Ms. Hong Ae-ja!

Ms. Hong Ae-ja?

Doctor, the blood pressure is continuously dropping.

Please wake up.

You must stay awake for us to continue this procedure.

What's the rate?

It's 70.

And the diastolic blood pressure can't be calculated.

Stop the blood dialysis process and give her oxygen.

[Marriage Registration]

We're officially a married couple now.

They said it takes a week for the process to complete.

Well, the starting date is still today.

Can I call you how I want to?

How do you mean?

Honey...

Are you that happy?

Yes, I'm happy.

But we don't have your parents' permission...

...or blessing. Are you still happy?

Yes.

Dr. Kang. Even if my parents are against us,

you can't cancel on this process.

How could I cancel?

I just made you my wife.

I didn't have the courage to make you mine.

I'm lacking in so many ways to be your husband.

That's not true at all.

But I'm not going to think that way from now on.

So you can't regret your decision, either.

And I don't want you to cry just because things get rough.

I won't.

All I ever need is your love.

Let's go.

Go where?

Your house.

We have to let your parents know we're married now.

But...

No buts. We must go.

You're going to leave without seeing your parents?

Three years...

Fine.

I'll peel onions for three years.

I'm sure I'll be something in that time.

Mr. Baek Sun-jae?

Yes?

After a month of watching your performance,

Chef decided to...

Yes?

Decided to keep you a little longer.

I see...

When will I get a chance to work with a frying pan?

Well, that's only for the chef to decide.

Oh, and here's your monthly paycheck.

Thank you.

Mr. Manager...?

Are you sure this is my paycheck?

Is something wrong?

I know I didn't fill a full month yet, but...

But this is below minimum wage.

The chef is giving you this much because he likes you.

Huh?

Don't you know how great it looks

on your resume to say you worked here?

There are people lined up willing to pay to work here.

But still.

I need to make a living.

Aren't you being too superficial?

Don't you have any passion?

But in America, people can support their families

and do what they want just by waiting on tables.

Then go to America.

You can't take that back.

Darn it.

Sun-jae!

What are you doing here at this hour?

Aren't you supposed to be working at the restaurant?

I don't know if I should be working there

getting this kind of treatment.

Look at this.

What about it?

This is the money I got after working my butt off for a month.

Wow, that's less than what I make here.

It'll be better to get pocket money from my dad.

But we promised to do our best for three years so that

our parents would rethink our relationship.

Go back to the restaurant.

You have to go and work as a chef one day.

Jung-ie...

Go.

Hurry up and go.

Good luck!

Goodbye.

Surely, they wouldn't have forgotten my birthday.

It's the first birthday since Jung-geun got married,

I can't announce it myself...

I'll just wait and see.

Wow. He writes so well.

Is it all right?

Yeah!

In-sung, I thought about it,

but there's nothing I can do well.

Oh, come on.

I'm serious.

I only have things I'm bad at.

I'm bad at English and bad at math.

Is that something to brag about?

So why didn't you study hard?

Father, it's okay to not be good at English and math.

She can be good at other things.

Other things like what? What?

In-sung, let me talk to you in my room.

All right.

You're so good.

Mr. Ma, isn't it your turn to make dinner today?

I said I'd do it for him.

I'm correcting his self introduction right now.

Dad, did you check out his poem on Seung-geun?

It was just amazing!

Oh gosh, It's nothing.

Are you kidding me?

What if Seung-geun fails again?

Huh?

Well, I guess I shouldn't meddle in it, then.

Dad, what's wrong with you?

Sir, let's go to my room and work more on it.

Let's go.

Shall we do that?

Let's go. Come on.

Let's go.

Oh, I have a gift...

Gosh, he's the best son in the world.

He must've gotten that for my birthday.

Ta-da! I bought a book of poetry.

What? Book of poetry?

Yes.

Father!

Mom!

Mom!

That's strange.

Have a seat for now.

Mom should be home soon.

All right.

She's not allowed to work for Jin-bong anymore either.

We'll just wait.

Thank you.

Doctor...

Will I be all right now?

Your blood pressure is back to normal.

And the worst is over for now.

But you went into shock during the blood dialysis

so you must be admitted to the hospital immediately.

But I can't stay here right now.

Can't I come back later?

You can't do that. You must stay here.

You need to get a thorough checkup tomorrow

to get a diagnosis.

But is it possible for me to get so sick so suddenly?

I checked your chart from three years ago,

and it said that your kidneys need a thorough checkup.

You didn't know?

Give me a second. Please lie down.

Hello, Dr. Kim?

Hee-sung, where are you?

I told you to stay home.

Where did you run off to?

I came back home... with my Hyun-woo.

What? Your Hyun-woo?

Who told you that you could invite him in?

We just registered our marriage.

What? Registered marriage?

You think I'd fall for your lie?

I'm not lying.

We really went to city hall and registered it.

How dare you do such a thing?

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

Everybody, get out!

I'm not going to see you anymore, Mom.

Do you have to go this far?

I'm sorry for making you unhappy...

Who said you could register the marriage with her?

Who gave you permission?

Even if you don't hold a wedding,

you should at least have a dinner together.

Thank you, Ji-sung.

Just what right do you have to oppose my marriage?

Get out!

I never want to see you again!

Get out!
