Original subtitles

It's perfect.

Did you think I wouldn't find out if you didn't tell me?

Let's try the speed dial.

Either her son or granddaughter must be speed dial one.

EMERGENCY

Emergency?

911?

She must be dying to live.

MY LIFELINE

My lifeline?

Could it be Ppal-gang?

This is Real Noodles

where the best jajangmyun is delivered all day.

-Real? -Yes, this is Real.

For real?

Yes. What would you like to order?

Is this what her life has been after

kicking out two daughters-in-law?

Her life's been nothing but sad and lonely.

Who's on speed dial three?

CREDITOR

She's in debt too?

I had no idea Ppal-gang was living this way.

I should've looked for her sooner.

And you call yourself a mom? Really?

"Rak Pasta"?

Yes, this is Rak Pasta.

Do you

know a girl named Lee Ppal-gang?

Who is this?

Do you know her?

I'm her mom.

I'm not a thief or anything.

Why can't she tell me where my daughter lives?

You know her, don't you?

You know Lee Ppal-gang.

Stay right there. I'm coming to you.

Please don't go anywhere.

Hey, is Ppal-gang home?

The kids are all at school.

Well...

Did you follow me?

You're the one who broke into someone else's house.

Which one of you called me?

Where's Ppal-gang?

Tell me where she is. I'm her mom.

No, I'm Ppal-gang's mom.

Just tell me.

Who's the first...

I'm the first wife. She's the second.

Don't say it like that.

I was his legitimate wife too.

So you're Ppal-gang's real mother.

"Real"?

Are you saying that I'm a fake?

I'm the only one Ppal-gang calls Mom.

She calls this woman Ms. Gye.

I was mistaken.

So you're the real mother?

What are you talking about?

I gave birth to Ppal-gang.

I suffered for more than 10 hours to give birth to her.

Do you need to see the scars?

Oh my.

-Let me go. -What are you doing?

Have you had breakfast yet?

What are you doing?

Would you like some brunch?

What's wrong with you?

What are you doing?

I just want to embrace everyone

with love.

We should go somewhere and talk.

Did he just hug those ladies?

BREAST CLINIC

LEE HWA-SIN

This isn't right.

I told them to be careful!

Are they trying to advertise it?

Mr. Lee Hwa-sin.

When will I get a single room?

Also, I already asked you

to call me by anything but my name

while I'm here. Please.

How many times must I tell you?

No one can ever find out I have breast cancer.

Also,

no one can ever know that a man is staying here in the first place.

Yes, sir.

Let me check your blood pressure.

-Jeez. -Please take off your jacket.

We'll move you to a single room as soon as one's available.

And when will that be for God's sake?

Your blood pressure is too high. I'll check it once again later.

Who's staying next to me? Is she an old lady?

-Please change into a gown. -Is she young?

-Don't forget to take off your underwear. -Is she pretty?

Never mind.

Please calm down and get some rest.

I'll come back in a while.

Please remember my requests.

You're wearing Mom's dress.

Yes. How do I look?

Mom looked prettier in it.

Of course she did.

Why are you wearing it all of a sudden?

It makes me feel like I'm with her. I don't feel alone.

It gives me courage.

Isn't it a team business trip?

I'll call you.

Can you go on television in that dress someday?

RAK PASTA AND VILLA

He did?

How expensive could pasta be

for him to be in debt because he couldn't pay?

Yes.

He and Ppal-gang were regulars, but they ran up quite a tab.

Since you said you were Ppal-gang's mom, I thought you could pay.

That's why I didn't stop you from coming.

How much is it?

It's not much, and I'm good not receiving it.

I'm so sorry in any case.

Do you have their phone number by any chance?

They were the ones who called us. We don't have their phone number.

Please take this back.

No.

They might come back.

Please take this money and treat them well.

I'll treat them well even without the money.

Please take this back.

If you ever hear from them, please call me at this number.

No.

Please call this number instead.

I should get back to the restaurant.

-Wait. -Wait.

Please. Call me and only me.

No, please call me.

I'll be waiting for your call.

All right. I get it.

Hello.

Can I watch TV?

Can I raise the volume a little?

Please let me know if it's too loud.

The symptoms of El Tor type cholera

are not as severe as those of the classical type.

Isn't this Na-ri's voice?

The broadcasting station seems to be just fine without me.

I thought it'd shut down or something.

What should I watch?

Keep it there.

Mr. Lee?

Let's just keep watching it.

RAK PASTA AND VILLA

I love eating late-night snacks on your rooftop.

I hope Na-ri will go on more business trips.

-Is it tasty? -Yes.

This is more like you.

I'm so happy you started eating again.

I think my dad will get better soon.

He looks a lot more comfortable now.

Right. We think the same.

-Don't we, Chi-yeol? -Yes.

Chi-yeol, put this away.

Hey, that just rhymed.

Gosh, I'm so full.

-Sleep in your own bed. -I don't want to.

She probably doesn't want to go back to her empty apartment.

You should lie down too.

-Where are you going? -I need a pillow.

What?

It gets chilly at night. You might catch a cold.

Dr. Geum.

How can I share a ward with a man?

If there were any other available rooms, I wouldn't do this.

He's just a patient and not a man.

Just think of him as another patient.

How can he not be a man?

Why are you doing this to me?

Patient or no patient, a man is a man.

What else would he be?

What is this?

Is this a prison or something?

This is just like a prison!

Since there's no other room,

I'd rather go home.

I'm sorry.

Since you're colleagues, I thought you wouldn't mind.

Even if all other men in the world were just patients,

he'd still be a man to me.

He was the only one who was a man to me at the broadcasting station.

I never considered any other man as a man.

-Is he your boyfriend? -What?

We didn't know you liked him.

He's not my boyfriend.

I don't have feelings for him anymore.

Dr. Geum.

I'll leave.

Please reschedule my surgery.

It'll be quite a delay then.

-I'd just die in the worst case. -Sorry?

You've never had a boyfriend, have you?

Have I been the only man

to you?

As I said earlier,

I don't like you anymore.

Didn't I tell you I'd date someone much nicer than you

even if I get dumped in the end?

Why are you talking about getting dumped?

Anyway, what is a man doing here?

Isn't this what you wanted?

Do you have breast cancer?

So do I.

I don't have it.

What?

You're a woman but you don't have breast cancer,

and yet I do, although I'm a man?

Do you have breast cancer?

When I suggested you get a check-up,

I didn't expect this at all.

Even if you can feel a lump,

it usually turns out

to be a benign tumor.

I guess I'm being punished.

What?

What's going to happen to you?

Do you need radiation treatment too?

It's not at a final stage, is it? It's still early,

right?

Why are you here alone?

Are you really here alone?

Are you crazy? You have cancer!

When is your guardian coming?

Where's your family? Don't you have anyone?

Oh no...

How can a macho man like you

end up with breast cancer?

Shut it.

Maybe it's a misdiagnosis.

Do men really get breast cancer?

Keep your mouth shut.

You have no idea how I feel.

If the company finds out, I can forget about being an anchor...

or ever auditioning.

Competitors will flock at me like wolves

and write up strange articles about me.

I don't want to become

the subject of tabloid articles

about the male anchor with breast cancer.

If people find out, my career is over.

That's why I didn't tell my family.

You just keep quiet, and I'll be fine. Got it?

Mr. Lee.

Aren't you afraid?

If word gets out, you're dead.

I won't tell even if it kills me.

Even if someone offers me a 100 million won.

Mr. Lee.

Hang in there.

If someone offers you 100 million won, tell them.

When would you ever make that much money?

I'm sure the surgery will go well.

Go to sleep.

Our doctor

is the best in breast cancer surgery.

Let's go to sleep.

You need a good night's sleep for surgery to go well.

Okay. Goodnight.

Let's go to sleep.

Your surgery will go well.

Goodnight to me, too.

A chef?

A chef. He's a chef.

A chef?

Saffron.

She was wearing way too much perfume.

I'm sorry, Mr. Lee.

I feel like this happened because I ran my mouth.

I'm sorry.

Don't look at me like a cancer patient.

I thought you were asleep.

You...

don't see me as a man, right?

No, so don't worry.

I don't see you that way at all.

You're just a patient.

Will I be able to awake from the anesthesia tomorrow?

Will I be able to get married?

What?

Women

won't see a man with breast cancer as a man.

No one will ever find out if I keep my mouth shut.

Don't tell your future wife

even on your wedding night.

Men don't look sexier

just because they spill all of their secrets.

-It doesn't help. -I can't lie though.

I should be honest with my future wife.

Is that right?

Even you, who had a crush on me

for three years and couldn't forget me,

don't see me as a man once you found out.

So what hope do I have?

Go to sleep and stop thinking negative thoughts.

Would you be able to sleep?

They'll open me up tomorrow to see if it's stage one or two,

whether or not I'll need radiation treatment,

and whether or not it spread into my lymphatic system.

And if it did, they need to remove the entire breast.

What? You're just getting

a little lump removed, is that it?

For you, it's nothing big.

You don't have cancer, so you're fine.

Can I kiss you?

See? I can't.

As you said, you don't see me as a man anymore,

and I'm not sexy.

I'm just a sad patient in your room.

To be blunt,

a single man and a single woman...

are alone in a room with beds,

and yet you don't want to kiss me. I'm no man.

Do it.

Fine.

Really?

Yes. Really.

You mean it?

I won't really do it.

I just needed to hear

your answer, that's all.

I just needed to hear whether I, who has breast cancer like a woman,

still look like a man to you,

whether or not I'm still sexy,

and whether or not I could kiss you. That's all--

So you still want to kiss me.

I guess I am still sexy. That's good, then.

Kiss someone else though.

Someone who likes you.

So you still want to kiss me.

I guess I am still sexy. That's good, then.

Kiss someone else though.

Someone who likes you.

You may regret it tomorrow.

Kiss a healthy guy who likes you.

YOUR MESSAGE HAS BEEN SAVED

Where is it?

Oh no.

Where is it?

Oh dear.

What do I do?

Goodness.

Are you okay?

-That must have hurt. -Are you okay?

Oh no.

The doors are closing.

LEE HWA-SIN NEWSROOM

The doors are closing.

Cut it out.

It doesn't feel like self-defense if we cut this out.

Don't give me that.

This is just a fight. It wasn't self-defense. Cut it.

I won't.

Have you lost your mind?

I heard the outfit Ms. Geum wore

on the news today costs ten million won.

Don't you think it's too much?

-Really? -Yes.

LEE HWA-SIN NEWSROOM

Here you go.

Who are you?

I was sorry before about the nosebleed.

Back when you were rammed into the wall...

That was me.

It's fine.

And women should pretend it wasn't them, Ms. Pi Na-ri.

Pi? That's not it.

That's so sweet of him.

Why is it raining all of a sudden?

-Hello. -I need to head out for my interview.

Thanks, Hwa-sin.

Have a nice day!

LEE HWA-SIN NEWSROOM

Good work!

Hwa-sin is the poster child for the nine o'clock news.

Let's drink.

-Me too. -Cheers.

Where are you going?

I need to use the restroom.

-After one drink. -Just one drink, here.

-Okay. -Cheers.

-Cheers. -Good work.

Is it here?

I heard you have a blind date today.

Ms. Pi Na-ri. Why are you angry with me?

Just.

-Ms. Pi Na-ri. -Yes?

Your strap snapped.

-Thank you. -Wait.

Do you want this?

-No. -Why not?

Just.

Did Lee Hwa-sin's blood pressure come down?

Yes. It's down to normal.

Where have you been?

Our surgeries are in the morning, so let's sleep.

Come on.

Let's go.

What are you doing?

Whether or not I kiss someone

is up to me, not you.

You may think I'm crazy,

but ending a three-year-long crush

without ever holding hands is just as crazy, in my book.

Because I did nothing,

I couldn't end things or let go.

Nothing's holding me back now.

Also,

you shouldn't toy with a woman's feelings.

-Earlier, I was-- -Yes.

I lost all feelings for you.

Hey.

It wasn't such a big deal after all.

Hey.

Hey!

I've let it all go now.

Hello, everyone.

Autumn is briskly approaching.

I am Kim Jong-tae with the six o'clock News Morning.

I'm Park Jin.

Give me Na-ri's number.

-Why? -What do you mean, "Why?"

You acted all tough,

but you're scared too, aren't you?

Relax. That will help the anesthesia work better.

Take a nap and it'll all be over.

Your breasts will be uneven though.

Your breasts

will be uneven too, you know.

It's time to go.

The person you have reached...

Why won't she answer her phone?

Didn't you fire her?

You should forgive someone when they beg for forgiveness.

What's wrong with you?

Do you think another company scouted her already?

It's only been two days.

You saw how the ratings spiked.

Other broadcasting stations must have seen it too.

What will you do about her slot tonight?

What else? I need to get her back.

-Call her. -Okay.

Why would anyone scout her?

I'm sure she's sleeping. Don't worry.

-The line is busy. -Her line is busy.

Oh, you were calling.

Bovie.

-Hold tight. -Yes, ma'am.

Do a biopsy to see if it hit the lymphatic system.

-Okay. -Let's finish up. Irrigation.

Pay extra attention

-into the new product displays. -Okay.

-What about my mother? -She's coming tomorrow.

She said to come to the airport.

I think she spoke with Ms. Geum Su-jeong.

She was in a good mood.

Isn't it pretty?

It'll look good on her, right?

-Yes. -I don't need to go today, right?

Sure.

I'll get the car.

Hold on.

I want to give this dress to someone else.

But then you'll tattle on me to my mother, won't you?

Someone else, who?

-A weather forecaster. -A weather...

What? Do you mean...

Eat air and poop cloud?

Are you cheating already?

Your mother said she's going to look at wedding venues.

Let's call it "cheating."

Let's say I walk down the aisle with the woman my mother chooses.

What's wrong with me?

Can't I see her in this dress

and then decide whether it's cheating, pity, sympathy,

or just pure meddling?

I was just pretending to ask. No need to answer.

I can't refuse him when he's being so honest.

Sir, it's time to wake up.

Mr. Lee?

Mr. Lee.

I lost all feelings for you.

Are you awake now?

Yes.

The surgery is over. Good job.

We'll move you to your room.

How did it go? Did it spread?

Do I need radiation treatment?

The doctor will explain everything in detail in your room.

It's over.

The doctor will tell me.

You can drink water after four hours. I'll check your blood pressure.

Hang in there. We'll give you painkillers.

Even with painkillers, it will hurt today

as the anesthesia wears off.

Whenever you're in pain,

press this for more painkillers.

-Don't hold it in and press it. -Okay.

One, two, three.

UNKNOWN CALLER

-The person you have reached... -What is her problem?

Goodness. We're going to have a blunder on our hands.

Why is he being so foolish?

Thanks for that.

It sure helps.

Who's doing the seven o'clock news today?

Are they going to make me do that live too?

You're doing the nine o'clock news,

so stop being so greedy.

Must the viewers see your sickening face

twice in a row?

It's almost time,

but they haven't said anything, that's why.

Why aren't they assigning anyone new when Na-ri is gone?

Do you think they scouted someone new?

Already?

Maybe they're skipping the weather.

-Why would they do that? -Why would they do that?

I guess not.

Sit.

Let's have someone volunteer before it's too late.

Any volunteers?

-Me! -Me!

Don't let Ms. Geum catch you.

She isn't my wife. We went on one blind date. That's all.

The families finished discussions before the blind date though.

It's not cheating.

You feel sorry for the weather forecaster

and want to give her a nice outfit.

That's all it is. I'm sure.

Your phone.

You have a call.

Whatever.

Answer your phone.

Gosh.

My water.

You brat. What are you doing to your superior at work?

Don't you know you can't have water right now?

Drink this four hours later if you want.

Why didn't you bring anyone? You're such a pain in the ass.

It hurts so much.

Look who's talking.

Come on.

Darn it.

Your phone.

Turn it off if you're not going to answer it.

Just exercise your lungs.

It's bad if the anesthesia remains in them.

-Do it already. -I know that. I know!

It's so loud. That's more annoying than the pain.

Did your surgery

go well?

I'm sure you would've preferred if I had died.

Judging by your attitude,

I guess it went very well.

UNKNOWN CALLER

Just answer the phone.

I'm not expecting one.

Then why do you have 100 missed calls?

Hold on. It's Chief Director Oh's number.

Do you think the news is a time for you to show off your looks?

Do you think the news

is a program for you to seduce men?

Do you think weather forecasters are fake announcers?

Do you think the news is a camera test

to see if you could make it as a celebrity?

Do you think the news...

You do Pyo Na-ri's slot.

Take it off.

Change into something other than this.

Is this the army?

Look at her hazing them.

She missed her calling and was born a woman.

Right?

You're right.

Why weren't you picking up?

You were sleeping all day, weren't you?

Have you been enjoying your two days of freedom?

Get back here now!

Sorry?

Do you want me back?

Do you know how many times...

Forget it. If you don't make it this time, there's no second chance.

Get over here!

NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE

Hello, sir.

This is Pyo Na-ri from SBC.

What's tonight's forecast?

Heavy rain?

Really?

SBC Studios, please.

Okay.

Yes.

What will be stronger, the wind or the rain?

Yes.

Which regions are at risk?

What's the precipitation?

Okay. 150 to 170.

Thank you.

Hi, I just sent you a picture.

Yes. Please put heavy rain in the Midwest as well as

lightning and strong winds.

Yes. Let's use large arrows.

Sure. I'll let you know.

Right. I'm sorry, but I'm en route.

Okay.

It really is the weather girl.

Were you visiting someone at the hospital?

Yes.

Not really,

but yes.

We almost missed each other.

Here.

No.

-Pardon? -This is

for the seven o'clock weather forecaster.

-Take it to her. -But...

Yes, sir.

What about mine?

You should've stopped her.

What is this?

Is the broadcast that important

for her to run out on the day of her surgery?

What if

she bleeds from the surgical site?

I wanted her

to get married and be loved by her husband,

so I made sure

that I got everything down to the last 0.1g

when operating on her.

How could she run out of here like that?

Give him a round of applause.

She had absolutely no regard for what a doctor has to say.

She thinks it's all gibberish.

She thinks it's pure dog poop, that's what.

Are broadcasters

fearless, ignorant

or just clueless?

Do they think they have multiple lives or something?

They don't know how to cherish their bodies.

Exactly.

A single room opened up.

We'll get you settled in.

Even if she comes back,

don't you dare to take her back.

Move him into the single room now!

Dr. Geum.

Yes?

Na-ri hasn't arrived yet.

Listen to me.

Na Ju-hui can do this.

Don't worry. She'll get the ratings up.

She's prettier and younger.

She looks more high class which fits our image.

That's something Na-ri could ever be.

Should we then?

Who? Who's doing it then?

-Here it is. -Thank you.

Hold on.

You should've given it to the right person.

She's the seven o'clock weather forecaster.

Isn't she the poop girl?

Was there a switch?

Yes, I hear you.

Make a decision, sir.

Stop rushing me, will you?

Hi.

Stop looking for Na-ri whom you fired, and decide.

Is Na-ri who was fired the one you're interested in?

In Seoul, Gyeonggi and Chungcheong,

the precipitation will be 150...

I'm so dizzy.

I wonder if she'll be wearing Mom's dress.

Do your mom's clothes fit Na-ri?

She's the prettiest when she wears that dress.

You'll see.

I'm sorry I'm late!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, sir.

I'm sorry.

Is she here?

Is Na-ri here?

Yes, she's here.

I'm sorry, sir. I'm sorry.

Is this why you made me drink?

This...

isn't your slot anymore.

Can you do it?

Yes. I can do it.

Whose dress is that?

Let's call it cheating.

I'm cheating for sure.

Go, Pyo Na-ri.

I don't want

to go to the single room.

Why are they both standing there?

It's almost time.

Stand by. News title.

Three, two, one. Cue.

Can you really do it?

I can do it, sir.

Even if I die, I'll die here on this spot.

Go, Pyo Na-ri.

I'm cheating for sure.

I won't die from breast cancer.

I'll die of a heart attack because of you.

Whatever!

Why won't you ever listen?

-No. No! -Wait.

Are you really going to cheat like this?

No!

Are you trying to broadcast that I have breast cancer?

I should've died, but all I did was commit a mortal sin.

Does Hwa-sin know that you're sick?

I can keep a secret from you, right?

It's about your friend.

Does he have a girlfriend?
