[Episode 113]

Mother, where are you going?

Is it your turn this time?

Are you guys taking turns

coming in here to torture me?

Huh?

Mother! You can't take this off.

Jung-geun.

Why would you drag me here like this

when I just wanted to die?

Did I say I wanted to live?

Did I beg you to save my life?

You'll be better after the kidney transplant.

I have no intention of begging

my daughters for a transplant.

I wish you would've just left me at the beach.

I would've died by now, if you had.

And my daughters wouldn't have to see me like this.

How can you say that? You look fine.

Don't focus on your looks.

You should focus on getting better.

I have no more reasons to stay alive.

Move.

Mother.

Fine. Let's go.

Go where?

Where do you think?

Whether it be a beach or wherever,

I'll take you anywhere you want to go.

Let's go. Come on.

Do you feel better after

breaking our hearts this way?

You cold-blooded witch.

You're worse than any enemy.

I raised you with everything I had.

You ungrateful, spoiled brat!

Mom... I'm sorry.

Professor Ma, may I come in?

Yes. Come in.

Is something wrong, honey?

Why was Mi-na crying yesterday?

Did she get hurt?

Mi-na doesn't listen to me these days.

She's getting stubborn.

It's natural for kids to be that way.

Mi-na wasn't like that.

I don't know much,

but maybe she's just growing up.

She needs to make her own mistakes

to grow up and mature.

We were never independent from our mothers

and look where that landed us.

What's going on here?

She even took this off. Where did she go?

She did leave again?

What's wrong?

Do you know where your mother went?

Huh?

She was here just a while ago.

Mom must've gone somewhere again.

Did something happen?

Earlier, Mom was yelling at us to leave the room.

She said she never asked us to donate our kidneys.

And Ji-sung came and had an argument with her

because she was angry at Mom for acting childish.

Still! How can she leave the hospital again?

Why is she acting so childish?

She's not picking up?

If she was going to pick up, she wouldn't have left.

Why would Ji-sung come and argue with her?

Your mother sacrificed herself her whole life for you girls...

Couldn't she have just yielded to her mother?

Ji-sung is just as bad as your mother.

Hello, Jung-geun?

We have a problem.

Mom left the hospital again.

What?

You're with her right now?

She's very angry right now.

What kind of daughter are you?

She'd rather die than get the kidney transplant.

You girls should reflect on what you did wrong!

I did well, didn't I, Mother?

Why did you call her?

Why do you care when you want to just die?

Gosh. Those spoiled brats!

It's be better to not have any children.

Right?

Fasten your seatbelt. Let's go.

Doctor...

You're wearing your doctor's gown again.

I heard you took back my resignation letter.

Yeah.

You look your best in a doctor's gown.

That's why I decided to wear it again.

Since Mom doesn't want to see me again

and not get the kidney transplant,

I'm going to do everything she wants for now.

I may not be able to leave with you.

It's all right.

Don't be sorry.

I'm so in love with you.

I love you even more after learning that

you have my brother's heart.

Why won't Mom even let me bring it up?

Why would it give her comfort that somebody else

lived at the expense of her own son?

You should not force it onto her.

Meeting and falling in love with you

was more than enough for me.

No. I should've died when I was young,

but I got a second chance at life,

and that should be more than enough for me.

I must've been too greedy.

Loving you and accepting your love

was a luxury for me.

No.

Meeting, loving, and marrying you

were unbelievably great for me too.

But your mother's recovery is

what's most important right now.

Yes, good thinking.

You have to go back to Mother.

I'm all right.

So let's focus on Mother getting better for now.

All right?

Press down for five minutes.

Okay.

You're wearing your doctor's gown again.

Yeah. I'm going to tell Mom when she returns.

That I returned to my hospital.

And...

And?

I'm going to beg her to forgive me.

I'll say I was temporarily crazy.

And that I'll return to being the little Hong Ae-ja again.

You're saying you're going to break up with Hyun-woo?

After marrying him?

What else am I supposed to do?

Mom left the hospital saying she'd rather die.

She might hate him even more when she finds out

that he has Min-sung's heart.

There's nothing more I can do.

I have to go back to being her daughter again.

Why are we here?

We're not in a hurry. Let's eat.

I'm not hungry.

Mother, I'm hungry.

And you didn't eat anything all day.

Let's go.

Come on, Mother. Hurry.

Enjoy your food.

Thank you.

You're not going to drag me back to the hospital, right?

Oh, don't you worry about that.

I won't take you there until you tell me to.

Pass me the salt.

You can't eat anything salty or spicy for now.

How can I eat this without salt?

Since your kidney is failing, you can't eat anything salty.

Just eat it as it is.

Why are you moving those?

I told you, you can't have salty food.

But don't you want them?

I don't like salty food in the first place.

Here.

Yum. You can eat this.

Eat this. This is delicious.

Mother.

Yes?

Mother.

Why do you keep calling me?

You know what?

I'm just so happy that somebody answers me

when I say, 'Mother.'

The best thing that happened to me

was marrying In-sung,

and the next best thing was

having a mother of my own

I was always so mean to you.

Well, that's what a family is supposed to do.

My mom used to call me a brat

all the time before she passed away.

And I miss her calling me that sometimes.

She passed away when I was in junior high.

Since I was the eldest, I couldn't even cry

although I missed her so much.

I still can't show my weak side.

Do you remember this?

Before I married In-sung, you invited me

and prepared a table full of delicious food.

I called you that night to ask you to stop seeing her.

I know, but still.

I felt like my mom in heaven came back

and cooked for me again.

In-sung is so lucky.

To have a mother who loves her so much.

I was so envious of her.

Well, that's not what my daughters think.

They think they grew up on their own.

They blame me for everything.

They say I'm the one who did everything wrong.

Come on, that makes no sense.

There's no other mother like you.

Do you know what I've realized

after marrying In-sung?

What did you realize?

They're so lucky.

Patient Hong Ae-ja.

Oh, I'm sorry.

But she's not back yet.

She needs to get a kidney ultrasonography today.

Where did she go?

Well, I...

I'll call her right now.

All right. Goodbye.

Where did Jung-geun take her?

Yes, Dad?

Right. I didn't get a call yet.

He's not taking my calls, either.

Your mother needs to get an ultrasonography today.

And her blood dialysis isn't complete,

so she shouldn't be out of the hospital.

She should be all right since she's with Jung-geun.

I'll call you as soon as he calls me.

Bye.

Where did Jung-geun take Mom?

He's not answering his phone, either.

What's wrong?

Did he take your mother somewhere?

Yes. My mom left the hospital

because she was so upset.

And it seems like Jung-geun is with her.

Why is your mother being so stubborn?

I know she's upset about her daughters and all...

But she should take care of her own health.

Why is she dragging Jung-geun around?

It's not his fault that all this happened.

She's not dragging him around.

Jung-geun is just being there for her.

Well, it's the same thing.

My gosh.

Your mother should do something about her temper.

No wonder she's so sick!

Well, what I meant to say was...

If she stayed at the hospital, she'd be fine,

so why is she being so stubborn?

Right.

So...

She just needs to get blood dialysis to get better, right?

Yes, but...

Mom isn't in the condition to get blood dialysis.

Then what is she supposed to do?

A kidney transplant is the only way.

But isn't that a difficult thing to do?

The best match would be from her children,

so I went to the hospital this afternoon for a test.

Seung-geun, Jung-ie, dinner time!

Test for a match?

Is she going to donate her kidney to her mom, then?

Gosh...

I even got her herbal tonic to help her get pregnant...

Jung-ie, is something wrong?

What's that? Give that to me.

Huh?!

In-sung, what do I do?

Is this yours?

If Dad finds out, I'm so dead.

It's Sun-jae's, right?

Does he know?

No.

You're the only person who knows.

In-sung, what do I do?

In-sung, where are you?

Here, Father.

Father...

In-sung.

About that test you did...

Yes, Father.

Why don't we discuss this outside?

Father...

What did you want to ask me about?

Mother, have some tea.

Why are we here?

Why do you keep dragging me around?

Gosh, Mother. There's no hurry.

You said you didn't want any treatment.

I don't want everyone to see me so pathetic.

I don't want my daughters to see me like that.

Did you forget how well you raised your girls?

Why would you feel that way?

What do you mean pathetic?

There's nothing wrong with you.

I wasn't going to say this, but...

About Ji-sung...

Not just anyone can become a professor.

She surely can't believe she became a professor

just because she worked hard and was smart.

Well, that's exactly what she thinks.

She's the one who created a mess.

And it wasn't just any mess either.

She created a scandal for the whole world to see.

You made her a professor but she threw that away.

She should know that you worked

twice as hard to support her.

I heard that you took care of Mi-na

and did her housework even after her marriage.

Even cooked rice porridge for her.

Oh, don't get me started.

It'll take me days to tell you everything.

I can't take this anymore.

You should sue her!

Do you know how much she talked back at me?

She came into my hospital room

and told me to stop being so childish.

She doesn't remember what she did wrong.

I'm never going to see her again.

Of course not.

Even if she cries and begs for forgiveness,

you should push her away.

In-sung is just as bad.

It's understandable that she fell in love with me.

But she still should never forget what you did for her.

You're the reason for her trouble.

Well, yes.

I'm the guilty one.

I know how hard you worked to raise her.

But this useless, poor man showed up out of the blue

and stole her heart. I'm sure you're upset with me.

But aren't I the best one out of your sons-in-law?

Oh, whatever.

You dragged me here to brag about yourself?

No, it's not like that.

You can relate to me best among your sons-in-law, right?

You know how down-to-earth I am.

If you're going to blab nonsense, I'll leave.

Mother.

Please hear me out.

The worst of them all is Hee-sung.

Yes, Hee-sung, that brat...

Six years of medical school, internship, and a residency...

She couldn't possibly have done all that alone!

I made her enough ginseng tea to fill the Pacific Ocean.

People think I work at that hospital

because I'm always there.

And you finally made a doctor out of her,

but she fell in love with a guy and quit her work.

And not just any guy.

If he was as qualified as you,

I wouldn't be this upset.

Mother, do you really mean that?

My heart feels ripped out when I think of those two.

Yes, but they're married now.

There's nothing we can do.

Mother, won't you just accept them?

What's there to accept?

I already cut ties with all my daughters.

But Mother...

Why do you hate Father so much?

He seems like a great person.

Do you think I despise him because he's incompetent?

I was once madly in love with him and married him.

That's why we had so many children together.

Before Min-sung died, everything was bearable.

[Ma In-sung]

What is going on here?

What's he doing with Mom?

What if she collapses again?

What do I do about Jung-ie?

Why is everything happening all at once?

Jung-ie, where are you going?

I'll be right back.

Jung-ie, wait!

[Jung-geun]

Honey...

Father.

Oh, you're here.

Yes, Father.

Did my wife come back?

No, but look at this text.

Hang on.

I never told this to anyone...

Of course I have a lot to say about it...

But what's the use of pointing fingers?

My son is already dead and in heaven...

I barely got my bloody baby to the hospital.

And you don't know how much I prayed.

I prayed that he'd live.

But Min-sung died and Hee-sung was born.

So I was going to just let it go.

I was going to bury my boy in my heart.

But do you know I saw in the newspaper?

'Poet Ma Jung-ki donates his brain-dead son's heart

to a heart-failure patient.

His great sacrificial love. His love for mankind.'

He gave up our son's heart as soon as he was brain-dead.

My son already died but why would I be

so happy that someone else lived?

Even when I'm about to die,

he's telling me I should meet him.

How can everybody be so cruel to me?

No wonder I don't want to live.

I raised my daughters with everything I had

but they betrayed me...

What do I have left now?

I have to beg someone for a kidney to continue my life.

I'd rather die.

I'd rather follow Min-sung to heaven.

I wish I had just died when Min-sung died.

Mother...

I'm sorry for receiving his heart.

What?

I'm the boy who received

the transplant of your son's heart.

What are you saying?

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

I think In-sung is pregnant.

Father!

Hurray!

What's wrong with you?

You're trying to fake your pregnancy, huh?

Was Ji-sung here?

Who cares if she comes or not?

Ji-sung, aren't you going to see Mom?

I can't be greedy anymore.

Mom, I'll do anything you want me to.

Shouldn't you stop In-sung from donating her kidney?

I'll be only too happy if my kidney is compatible.

But you're pregnant!

Pregnant?
