Original subtitles

Is it dead? Did you kill it?

Did you abandon it?

Who did this? Why is he here?

That child is your daughter's child and your problem.

It has nothing to do with me or Seok-jin.

Don't make things complicated.

I must think of only Seok-jin.

You know a lot of parents give up their adoption, right?

- No. - He must have been handled roughly during labor.

- He wasn't washed, either. - My sister...

was precious, just like Mom.

If there is anything I can do for you,

I will help you. Don't give up.

I'll adopt him.

I will become his mother.

(Episode 6)

Eun-hee.

I'm not doing this out of pity. Don't think I'm doing this on a whim.

No.

- Head mistress. - You can't do it.

Why not? Why can't I become his mother?

I'm probably the one who loves him the most in this world.

I love him the most.

The one who loves him the most should be his mother.

You're not even married.

Anything could happen in the future and you want to be his mother?

This is nonsense.

I won't allow it.

Head mistress.

Myoung-sun is with the couple who wants to adopt him.

- They'll be here soon with the child. - What?

It can't be!

Eun-hee, hold him. He's crying so much.

- There. - Don't cry.

It's okay.

There, there.

He must really like you.

He stopped crying.

The baby was sick before,

and she took really good care of him.

They must be a bit attached.

The baby is docile, though.

Of course, he's still a baby.

If you care for him with love...

Was the child sick?

Where and how was he sick?

Dear.

We can't adopt a baby that was sick.

Think of how painful it would be if he got sick after we adopt him.

It was only a minor sickness.

- He wasn't cared for... - Kids naturally get sick as they grow up.

Can't you handle even that?

What I meant was...

that he's not seriously ill or anything.

It's not that he's not normal, either.

Take a look.

Here, he's smiling and cheerful like this.

Take a look.

Give him to me. I'm taking him upstairs.

Eun-hee.

Thank you.

I didn't say that to help you.

- It was a mistake. - Still.

You're being weird.

Why are you so attached to him? He's not Eun-ah.

I know that. I don't think of him as Eun-ah.

I feel like his heartbroken mother...

is asking me...

to please help him.

You're being delusional.

Maybe I am.

Eun-hee.

You have a bright future ahead.

You're ruining that future if you keep on like this.

I just love him.

That's all.

Don't try to find reasons to convince me otherwise.

It's frustrating.

It's like we're fated...

to love each other.

Others would think he's your man.

Did you hear that, child?

He is a guy.

You're adopting him?

Yes. Please help us.

How can I?

The head mistress is against this.

Will you please persuade her?

Is that baby really Seok-jin's child?

No.

Whether he is Seok-jin's or not,

he's a source of trouble.

It's better to send him.

Listen to your elders. Why are you being stubborn?

Recently, a couple wanted to adopt him,

but left when they found out he was sick.

This isn't the first time.

Of course, he'll be adopted someday,

but the parents could give him up when he gets sick again.

There are so many children who return...

to the orphanage like that.

I can take really good care of him.

You know me.

Since you were my sponsor,

please support me on this.

She will allow it, then.

Please, Ms. Park. Please?

You need to wake up.

You're not even married. How are you going to raise a kid?

Do you know how difficult it is?

Listen to me. I'm more experienced.

I tried to rebel against Mom for favoring Seok-jin.

Look at my life, now.

So you know?

Mi-sook, It's not like that for me.

It doesn't matter. Don't do it.

He was abandoned here, right?

- Who left him here? - How would I know?

You don't have to yell.

He might not have been abandoned.

Right.

You need to put that fantasy of yours away.

Even I couldn't abandon a helpless child.

I even thought of an abortion so many times,

but I couldn't do it.

You can't abandon your child.

Who knows how he will grow up...

with such spiteful parents.

Please, Ms. Park.

You're a kind person. Please?

Eun-hee!

I know you're nice, but stop acting it.

It's driving me crazy.

Be quiet. Why are you being so loud?

Eun-hee.

Yes?

I agree with the head mistress.

Send him away.

You need to think about your future.

You grew up struggling, too.

Find a good person and live a good life.

Ms. Park.

We're done.

- Ms. Park. - No.

We're done.

He has to go away.

I have to clear everything for Seok-jin.

It's me.

Eun-hee came by just now.

Yes, of course.

Please send him soon if you can.

Yes.

You did the right thing.

I didn't do that for your complement.

(Raise your first baby to become a leader.)

(Maintain a warm human body temperature.)

She wants to be his mother?

There are still people who'd do that?

She seemed quite young.

I'm sure she's older than you, though.

Eun-hee...

is a bit unique.

She had a little sister she really cared for,

but she died from an accident.

After that, Eun-hee thinks...

family is the most important thing in the world.

Thank you so much for getting us the taxi that day.

- It was nothing. - By the way...

How old are you, really?

I mean...

How old would you be?

We're older, right?

I'm not being rude, right?

It's a secret.

By the way,

the baby...

looks a bit pale.

I know.

I get worried about it all the time.

I don't know when he'll act up again.

There you are.

- You're here? - I'll take that.

It's okay, I'm fine.

Who are you?

You're the one who helped us last time.

- Thank you so much. - It's nothing.

I should help if I can.

What did you buy so much?

Come here.

There's a special baby formula for diarrhea.

Did you buy another maternity book? You're on your way to becoming a real pro.

There.

- Hey. - What?

Did you forget to wash the blanket?

Blanket?

The baby seems to have sensitive skin.

She told me to sterilize his blanket in the sun.

I'm sorry, so stop glaring at me.

I said I'm sorry.

Did your talk with Ms. Park not go as planned?

She's not helping you?

I don't know. I'm tired.

All right.

Her plan didn't work out.

Are you crazy?

Ja-kyung, don't be like that.

Right,

I did accept Director Kang's offer,

but I'm not accepting yours.

I understand how you feel.

I was a famous child actress,

and I was a proud heroine just six months ago.

Do you think I'm easy because we're school mates?

You couldn't even talk to me. I only dated you because...

it was pitiful to see you stalk me all the time.

Now, you've ruined my life.

You want what now?

You dare offer me a supporting role?

And a villain who pulls the lead's hair at that?

This role really isn't bad.

Right.

If you read the script...

I'm sorry I'm late.

What's with your face?

It's nothing.

What's going on?

Oh my.

No way! How could she?

What kind of director...

gets slapped by an actor with the script?

Stay here.

Don't do it.

Ja-kyung went too far.

You're still a director even if you're the assistant.

I told you to stay out of it!

You don't have to yell.

Mom, I'm okay.

Don't make things complicated.

Ja-kyung...

has her reasons.

He's still like that.

You must be disappointed.

That's why you should be nice to me.

Sons are all like that.

Stop exaggerating.

Seok-jin did nothing wrong.

It's only natural for a director to try hard to secure an actor.

Things happen during work.

Wow.

It looks like you're the one trying hard.

Don't you want to pull her hair now?

Stop saying nonsense and work.

I'm so happy.

Me too.

Cut! Okay!

Ja-kyung.

Let's move on to the next scene.

I was so humiliated that I threw the script at him.

I was humiliated!

I know you took care of me since I was young.

I know you're trying to give me another chance.

That's why...

you should act this villain as best as you can.

The rumors about you...

will be cleared. I'll make sure of it.

Do you think I'd have called you if I didn't believe in you?

Director.

Are you all right?

Of course.

You understand, right?

Ja-kyung isn't that kind of actress.

I know.

Director.

Give me some time to think.

Sure. Seok-jin, hand her the script.

Here.

Your lines are marked, so take a look.

Trust me, okay?

Floor director?

You?

Yes, me.

Before I enlist.

I see. That's good.

Learn the industry.

What a surprise to see you two agree with each other.

Only a few board of directors know who you are.

I'll let them know.

Learn all the nooks and crannies of the company...

on your own, without my help.

Okay.

You're quick to answer,

for someone who doesn't listen.

- I'll tell the newsroom tomorrow... - No.

I'm going to the drama section.

- Lee Gun-woo. - I never agreed to work in the newsroom.

I got the job on my own.

I'll take care of the exams myself after military service.

You don't need to worry.

It would be nice if you applied for the newsroom.

Did you really want to get on Dad's bad side?

What good does it do for you?

He'll have fewer expectations for me.

You're mean.

Don't misunderstand.

I just like dramas.

I was never interested in news casting.

You know me.

You're a real mean one.

Listen, you're not my older sister.

You're a college freshman. Don't act like my older sister.

Then you should act like an older brother.

Be nicer, and don't get mad at the dinner table.

Okay.

It's a relief to see...

that at least one of us grew up pretty and bright.

All thanks to you.

You stopped Dad...

from ever scolding me.

You didn't eat dinner properly.

Aren't you hungry?

I ate while playing soccer with the kids at the orphanage.

You go there often.

One...

What are you looking at? Huh?

You're so pretty, my treasure!

Aren't you pretty?

What's wrong?

Gosh, you won't even kiss him?

I don't want to hurt him, not even a hair.

Right, baby?

There.

I won't look at or even touch him. I'm the only one here.

This is starting to get annoying.

We're growing apart because of that kid.

Why do you say that? You know how I feel.

Are you crazy? Don't think you can act cute to get out of this.

Hey!

Just use the washing machine. You can't hand-wash everything.

This isn't laundry.

What is it then?

This is my prayer.

Please let us stay together.

Please let my baby stay healthy.

Please let him grow nice, healthy, and well.

This is when I pray.

There.

Whatever, I'm cold. I'm going inside.

What a stubborn girl.

This is amazing!

This is so pretty.

- I know it isn't much, but... - Not at all!

This looks expensive.

Children's items are quite expensive, you know.

I was thinking of getting some clothes for winter.

Thank you so much.

I'll feel awkward if you thank me so formally.

Good grief.

Show me your ID.

Let's see how old you are.

We're definitely older, right?

Aren't you going to the army after graduating this year?

- Didn't you directly go to college? - No, I flunked for three years.

That would mean...

I'm joking. You're older.

How dare you pull my leg?

- Don't be like that. - So what? He's younger.

- Did I go too far? - No, it's fine.

Just don't hit me.

Where should I put this?

It's okay. I have to hand-wash it first. I'll take it, please.

Give it to me.

I'll take it to the laundry room then.

You want to see the baby, right?

Can I?

- Well... - She's being picky again.

She doesn't let anyone enter the nursery.

I understand. I'll see him some other time.

The baby is the most important.

I'm sorry.

- Hey. - Eun-hee!

I told you to sleep at night.

I'm okay, I'm okay.

- Are you okay? - I'm all right.

- I'm okay. - Geez.

She's officially becoming his mother?

Of course, I haven't approved it.

She's not even married, and she thinks of the child too much.

I'm worried.

There are some parents who visit to adopt.

She won't even let them see the baby.

There are many parents who mistreat their own child.

She's quite special.

Eun-hee had a special view of the world since she was young.

I can't simply support her, though.

It's quite a tricky situation.

Head Mistress!

Eun-hee fainted!

What?

- She has to go to the hospital. I'll bring her. - I'll get ready.

Get in the car now.

I knew you were going to get sick.

Raising a child isn't that simple.

I told you to take it easy.

- I'm really all right. - Yeah, right!

Hurry up and get in.

You can't leave. Someone has to look after the baby.

All right.

Call me when you get there.

Thank you.

Go, Head Mistress.

Seriously...

You can go now.

Speak comfortably.

It's weird if you keep switching.

If you say so.

I'll be leaving now.

Hey.

- Why not take a look at the baby? - What?

It's okay. She doesn't like people in the nursery.

It's fine.

You won't get another chance like this to see him.

Go see him when the mother isn't here.

It's over there.

He's sleeping.

This room used to be prettier,

but now it's a complete nursery after he came.

This baby is the center stage.

He's handsome.

Isn't he?

If he grows up like this, he's going to be like an idol.

I never knew a newborn could have such a handsome nose.

Hey, what about his eyes?

He's sleeping now, but he's a killer when he opens his eyes.

Doesn't he cry when he's awake?

Yes, that's true.

He'll cry when he sees your face.

He has to see Eun-hee's face.

Gosh.

If the mother saw his smile, she wouldn't have abandoned him.

I wonder what kind of mother she is.

He might not be abandoned.

- Why? - Eun-hee said the same thing.

That's funny. I say he was abandoned,

but you and Eun-hee don't.

Where's the chief?

Give me the script.

That's what happened.

- Here is the script. - The staff went crazy.

- Thanks. - Take this to the editing room, please.

Okay.

Where are you?

I'm almost there.

- Yes. - Are you slacking off?

- I'm sorry. - Get here right now.

Excuse me.

Are you all right?

Aren't you...

the new floor director?

Yes.

Hey.

What do you think you're doing riding like that?

That could have been a big accident.

- You're the one who drove in the wrong lane. - What?

It looks like you were on the phone.

Take this and fix your bike.

Shouldn't you apologize first?

- What? - I think I hurt my shoulder.

I'll get it treated at the hospital and fix my bike.

I'll send you the receipt.

You can pay me the exact amount then.

I need to head to the editing room to hand over the tape.

Why that little...

Ja-kyung.

There are so many headlines about Kim Ja-kyung's supporting role.

Can you really do this?

I heard Yu Hae-rim might be the lead.

You should quit if it's hard.

Honestly, we're not that desperate yet.

You can just go with Mr. Kim on his golf trip...

I'm doing this, be it a villain or supporting role.

- I'm an actress, stop telling me to... - I get it.

I was only thinking of you.

People gossip about actresses all the time.

She's done for. It's always the same.

Wait, is she coming back?

I thought she was done for.

Make people know who you really are.

That's the life of an actress.

You even threw away your baby.

Mom!

That was my mistake. Sorry.

Take that resolve of yours and show them the most...

vicious villain in Korean history. You will be a huge hit.

- Your life will be back on track then. - Ja-kyung!

The female lead has been decided.

Who? Really?

It's going to be Yu Hae-rim.

She just signed the contract.

She's come so far, hasn't she?

She used to be your minion.

Wow.

I want you both to leave. I need to practice.

Watch out.

- Is the baby sleeping? - Yes.

He should be up soon. Can you check on him?

I just got here. Let me take a break for five minutes.

Rest then. I'll go and look.

What's this? I told you to get brisket.

What? I can't believe you!

I was going to cook a clear broth for yukgaejang.

This has too much fat for children.

I don't know. They gave me that one.

I would I know if this is fat or meat?

Oh dear, I should check on the baby!

He must be up already.

- Baby. - What are you going to do with her.

We'll have to remove the fat from the broth. I'll be right back.

All right.

This is going be a lot of work.

Head Mistress!

Auntie!

Where's the Head Mistress?

She went to the Health Center. Is the baby sick?

Yes, what do we do?

Hold on.

- Where is she? - The Health Center.

There was a big accident, so there are no available ambulances.

Let's get a taxi. Wait, I'll get one.

His fever is so high. What's wrong?

His body is getting colder.

- Put him down. - Put him down?

- Do you have something for him? - Wait here.

Baby, what's wrong?

Baby, hold on.

Hold on.

Why are there no cabs?

What do we do?

Right.

I've got nothing to lose.

Here, eat this.

What do we do? He must be really sick.

Why is he so cold? The crying should raise his temperature.

What do we do?

I'm sorry, my child. Let's go to the hospital.

I'm sorry.

My child.

(Person Who Gives You Happiness)

Why does he keep getting sick with a fever?

Is he incurable?

It was so messy when I first got here.

What kind of parents would do this?

What mother would cry and pray so desperately like her?

- What's wrong? - Who do you think I'm here for?

Are you going to ruin your life for that actress?

I should let Eun-hee raise him. Adoption won't work.

I want you to smile and shine.

- He smiled. - Im Ha-yoon.

He's my son, so he'll be Im Ha-yoon.

Im Eun-hee's son, Im Ha-yoon.
