Taste it.

It's good.

Don't lie.

It's really good.

How did you...

know about this place?

I somehow found out.

You haven't changed a bit.

I missed you.

Let's eat.

Soo-jin.

Do you know

how hard it was for me to break up with you?

Why did you come back?

TIME TO TAKE EVENING MEDICINE 10:00 P.M.

How did you know about this place?

I somehow found out.

You haven't changed a bit.

YANGSU 3-RI, NO SMOKING

Do you know

how hard it was for me to break up with you?

Why did you come back?

Because I love you.

Because I love you.

Because I love you.

Do-hun, open the door.

Do-hun!

Do-hun.

Do-hun.

Do-hun!

Do-hun!

Do-hun, what's wrong? Wake up, Do-hun!

Do-hun!

Can you hear me?

You can't come inside.

-He's my husband. -You need to wait outside.

This is so nice.

Look at that.

-The weather is nice. -Isn't the weather wonderful?

Ah-ram, let's get going now.

Hang on. I want to play with the sand a little more.

Your mom and I are going to go ride a horse.

-A horse? -Yes.

Let's go.

-Ah-ram, aren't you scared? -No.

-Really? -Do-hun and Ah-ram.

-Look at me. -Look at your mom.

Wave your hand at her.

Hi.

-One, two, three! -Three!

Nice, that was a big jump.

One, two, three!

Another big jump!

You're so good at this.

Mom, hurry!

Ah-ram, you'll trip and fall. Slow down.

Oh, it's the sun!

Even if I forget everything else,

I'll never forget you.

BU-IL HOSPITAL

He could avoid

the worst-case scenario because you found him early enough.

But the problem is that his condition will worsen.

Also, it looks like Mr. Kwon has been

experiencing delirium often these days

because he's been under a lot of stress.

Now, with this overdose on top of everything,

both his mind and body

are simply overworked.

Is that why he hasn't been able to recognize anyone for days now?

Because of the overdose,

his symptoms of delirium have worsened.

From now on, you'll have to observe him more carefully.

When do you think he'll come back to be his normal self?

I'm not sure.

At the moment, I can't tell you whether the symptoms

will last for a week, a month, or much longer.

Then,

what should I do?

Making him feel as relaxed as possible is key.

Being surrounded by people, things,

and environments that he's familiar with can be helpful.

If the guardian seem anxious, it'll only confuse him more.

Be understanding and patient.

Just keep waiting

and hang in there.

All family members of the people with Alzheimer's disease live like that.

As for Mr. Kwon, he can lose the ability to handle

the normal day-to-day routine on his own anytime

because his cognitive function is severely deteriorating.

He was able to hold out for this long

purely because of his strong will, which is very impressive.

Did you have a good sleep?

You look more well-rested than yesterday.

Aren't you hungry?

Is there anything you want to eat?

Do-hun, do you remember your name?

Your name is Kwon Do-hun.

You see the photo and your name, right?

I'll be looking after you

for a while.

It was only a little while after we bought the house.

I always complained that our house would be too small

for the two of us and our kid.

But after he left,

the house felt too big.

At first, I hated and resented him.

But as time went on, feelings of loneliness

outgrew such emotions.

Perhaps

it was because

he left his heart with me even though he had physically left.

Do-hun's new house is very big and nice.

The size of the spacious garden is perfect.

He took such great care of the garden

since he has a neat personality.

He was probably alone in that house all this time.

Knowing that he has to leave one day,

he lived all alone in that huge house.

-Soo-jin. -Going to bed every day

all by himself

and spending time alone every day.

Alone every day...

Soo-jin, don't be like this.

You know that he doesn't want to see you sad.

He wants you to be happy.

And I will be,

from now on.

You haven't eaten yet, right?

I'm starving to death I've skipped a few meals.

I know it's hard to believe.

Let's go grab some food, okay?

-Hello. -Hey, how have you been?

Good.

You look quite weary.

-Have you eaten anything yet? -Yes.

Soo-jin.

-I'm sorry. -No, don't be.

You don't need to apologize.

I'm sorry.

It must've been so hard for you to accommodate Do-hun's wishes.

Su-a, Do-hun likes grilled fish, you know.

He doesn't like hospital food.

-Do you have any good fish? -I do, of course.

Give me a moment. I'll grill some quickly.

What about you? Do you want anything?

You know me. Salmon sushi, as always.

The doctor said things that he's familiar with

might help him relax.

I'll go to his place and bring a few things.

Please give me the door code.

I'll go later--

Six, three, seven, seven.

-Is that the door code? -Yes.

Do-hun.

Do you know who I am?

A PRESENT I BOUGHT FOR AH-RAM

AH-RAM, I WISH YOU A HAPPY LIFE

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR FIRST BIRTHDAY

CURLY HAIR LOOKS GREAT ON MY DAUGHTER. I MISS HER

EVEN THOUGH I CAN'T BE WITH YOU, I ALWAYS ROOT FOR YOU AND LOVE YOU

I'll go and make a phone call.

Okay.

MR. SEO JIN-GYU

My address? What's the address here?

Here?

This is a hospital.

Bu-il Hospital, Room 103.

Bu-il Hospital.

Room 103.

Excuse me. Where is Room 103?

It's the next room.

Mr. Kwon, did the tests go well?

Yes, the tests went well.

Right, Do-hun?

Su-a, Soo-jin won't pick up her phone.

I hope nothing happened.

Something happened.

What happened?

Soo-jin is at the hospital right now.

The hospital?

I do understand how you feel.

But Soo-jin,

Do-hun has Alzheimer's.

Do you know why that disease is so scary?

The people around the patient suffer even more

than the patient himself.

Stop by here from time to time if you want to.

That might make you feel a bit better.

But,

don't get any stupid idea.

Mi-gyeong.

I've already made up my mind.

What do you mean?

I'll stay with Do-hun.

Hey.

There's no point now.

Think carefully.

You'll probably be able to handle it for a while.

But how long do you think you can last?

A year? Two years? Three years? For the rest of his life?

He won't even recognize you,

and he won't remember a thing.

He won't even be able to use the toilet too.

-Stop. -Stop what?

This is reality and facts.

What if there comes a point where you can't go on any longer?

That would be even more painful than this.

Also, all your effort up to that point would lose meaning.

Are you telling me

to turn my back on Do-hun

and live a happy life?

Yes, exactly.

That's what Do-hun wants.

I can't do that.

-You have to. -I can't.

I love him.

Get a hold of yourself. You're Ah-ram's mom.

Yes, I'm Ah-ram's mom.

But Do-hun is Ah-ram's dad.

Mom!

My girl, did you have fun?

-Did you eat? -Uncle made me egg rice.

Really?

Did you thank him and give him a kiss?

Yes.

Ah-ram.

When did you give me a kiss?

You shouldn't lie.

Your beard hurts me.

Are you leaving?

I have a life too.

Uncle, don't go.

Give me another plane ride.

Some other time.

I'm late. I'll be going.

-Goodnight, Ah-ram. -Bye.

-Thanks for today. -Bye.

Should we go to sleep?

Did you have a good time with Grandma?

Yes. We drew

and went to the playground.

I see.

Right.

Mom, Butterfly Man is my dad.

What?

Butterfly Man?

Grandma's friend said

that he's my dad.

Do you want to

see your dad?

Yes.

Mom, I'm sleepy. Read me a book.

They fit you perfectly.

Ah-ram, do you like them?

Yes, I love them.

Ah-ram.

Your dad

bought these shoes for you.

He loves you a lot,

but there's a reason why he couldn't be here.

Does that mean that I have a dad too?

Of course. You do have a dad.

Really?

Yes.

But Ah-ram,

do you remember the time when you had a bad cold

and had to be hospitalized?

Yes. Those shots hurt so much.

Your dad is in the hospital right now.

Does he have a cold?

He has

something a little worse than that.

So he might not be able to play with you.

Also, because the shots hurt so much,

he might be in a bad mood.

So even if he acts a little strangely,

let's try to cheer him up.

Can you do that?

Yes.

Ah-ram. Do you want to get close to Dad?

Ah-ram, Dad received a lot of shots.

He's in a lot of pain, but he's trying to endure it.

Do-hun, wait

Ah-ram, your dad needs to go receive another shot.

I'll go with him

and ask the nurse not to hurt him so much, okay?

Okay.

Mom, I want to go to Uncle Soo-cheol's dojo.

Ah-ram, your mom needs to see your dad receive his shots,

so how about going with me?

-Okay. -Let's go.

BU-IL HOSPITAL

Ah-ram, wait for me.

Let's go.

Let's go, Ah-ram.

Hold my hand.

Ah-ram,

listen to Uncle Soo-cheol and Aunt Su-a well, okay?

Okay.

-Let's go now. -Okay.

Ah-ram. Dad gave you a present.

Dad must love you very much.

Isn't this flower so pretty, Ah-ram?

Yes.

Mr. Song is as cranky as we think.

He's a real perfectionist, and gives everyone a hard time.

You're right. Everyone in this industry knows that fact.

All his stylists and costume teams quit within a few months.

But why on earth did he choose you?

What do you think? Because I'm good.

If you're that good, why did he refuse your first proposal?

-Goodness, seriously. -Can't we all just get along?

It's just a draft proposal, and we can make it again anytime.

Why are you getting angry at me?

I'm in a meeting.

What? Did anyone get hurt?

Okay, I'll be there soon.

What's wrong?

The stunt team got in an accident.

I need to get to the set,

so don't fight and make some results, okay?

Is it just a fracture?

Which hospital is it?

Okay.

How about this?

Then...

What do you think about this, Ms. Son?

It looks better.

Gosh, seriously.

MR. JEONG

Yes, it's me.

Have you already arrived at the set?

No, I forgot something.

Mr. Song's company sent me a file this morning for reference.

I copied it on my desktop,

so open it.

Why are you telling me that now?

It's locked with a password.

It's dpfla0507.

Wait. Can you say it a bit slower?

Dpfla0507. The P is a capital letter, okay?

D, P,

F, L, A, and 0507?

-With a capital P? -Yes.

Okay, this is it.

Don't the drafts all look okay?

They look okay,

but this one seems like the best.

-I made that draft. -Really?

Ms. Son, what do you think of this?

This one feels right.

Okay, check this one.

Okay. Ms. Son, aren't you hungry?

-Shall I get some snacks? -Sure.

I'll go with you.

Do you like waffles? I know a great place nearby.

It's delicious.

YE-RIM

YE-RIM

May I ask what the occasion is?

It's the first day we met.

It's locked with a password. It's dpfla0507.

YE-RIM

Oh, my gosh.

What are you doing?

Do you still have work left?

We haven't confirmed the draft yet. Why?

Did you see Gyeong-seok?

He went out with Seon-kyeong to buy snacks.

Where is Mun Ji-yong?

He's right there.

-There? -Yes.

Mr. Jeong, how did you come all the way here?

-Are you okay? -I'm sorry, sir.

We couldn't shoot today because of me.

The shoot isn't important. Your arm is broken.

Don't mind the shoot.

Take good care of your health.

-Will it take long for him to heal? -About a month.

Oh, no.

-Excuse me. -Go ahead.

Your password was "dPfla0507"?

Ye-rim heard everything, and I think she knows.

Soo-jin, I thought you understood me.

Do-hun will be sent to a care home anyway.

You don't have the right to do this, and you shouldn't.

Do-hun can't go back home.

This was what he wanted.

I'll do it.

He's my husband.

Even if he goes to a care home, I'll be the one who takes him there.

Then,

I'll go request his discharge.

No. I'll do that too.

From now on, I'll do everything.

-Soo-jin. -I know you tried so hard all this time.

And I'm really grateful.

I'll go and request his discharge.

Do you see this?

I got a stamp of Ah-ram's footprint

as soon as she was born.

Ah-ram is my daughter.

Isn't she adorable?

Look at this.

Isn't she so cute?

She made me laugh a lot.

Aren't you getting tired?

Oh, right.

Ah-ram is very curious about everything these days.

She asks me "why" nonstop.

"Why is it like this? Why is it that way?"

I keep answering her questions, but it goes on all day long.

Sometimes, I seriously want to say, "I don't know!"

But whenever I feel that way,

I ask Ah-ram, "Why do you think so?

What are your thoughts on it?"

I ask her what she thinks about it,

and it's helpful.

Isn't it such a beautiful day?

It is a beautiful day indeed.

It really is a gorgeous day, isn't it?

BRIAN JEONG

YE-RIM

Are you two close?

We're together.

She's my girlfriend.

I'm sorry, but we're closing now.

Oh, I see.

Hi.

What's up with that password?

I'm...

I'm too late, aren't I?

I'm sorry.

Why didn't you call me?

I really waited for your call.

Shall we cross?

Yes, let's cross.

MAPLE TOWN

Thank you.

You must be exhausted. You should get going.

I can't leave him alone here.

It must be hard because this was your first day.

But you have to get used to it.

He'll be so lonely,

all alone in that room.

Get going. You need to leave.

Mr. Kwon.

MAPLE TOWN

Mr. Kwon, there you are.

It's time to go to bed. You shouldn't be sitting here alone.

Shall I take you to your room?

Let's go.

It's not like you're seeing someone.

What's keeping you so busy that I had to bring all my stuff?

I am going to see a guy.

Take good care of Ah-ram for me.

What?

Are you serious? Tell me what's going on.

I'll tell you another time. I have to go.

What does he do?

Who is this guy?

NAME: KWON DO-HUN

Do-hun, here.

MOM

Mom.

Are you playing with Grandma's phone again?

Did you call your mom? That's good.

Hey, are you busy?

Did something happen?

The thing is, Ah-ram is looking for a princess stamp or something,

but I can't find it anywhere.

I haven't even been able to use the bathroom for 20 minutes.

Check the drawers in Ah-ram's room.

The drawers?

Ah-ram, Mom says it's in the drawers.

By the way, what time are you coming home today?

I'll be late. I have to go.

Okay. Bye.

Hold it with both hands like this.

And like this.

Thank you.

Do you want to put on the other too?

-Ma'am, come with me for a second. -Okay.

I'll be right back.

MOM

MOM

Do-hun. Is that you?

-Do-hun. -Oh, that's Butterfly Man.

Grandma, Butterfly Man is my dad, right?

Ah-ram, did you know that?

Yes.

Do-hun...

I'm sorry. You must have been surprised.

Mom must be driving right now.

You shouldn't talk on the phone while driving.

No. You should never video-call while driving.

That's right.

Ah-ram, have you ever met your dad?

Yes.

Where?

At the hospital

and at the butterfly chocolate cafe.

At the hospital?

Was Dad very sick?

Yes. Mom said

he has something a little worse than a cold.

I see.

My baby.

Let's go and look for the princess stamp now.

Let's go.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

-Ye-rim. -Soo-jin.

I had to pay a lot to get her on board.

She's already a team manager.

She's doing really well.

Are you Manager Son now?

Manager Son, you look even prettier now.

You too.

-How have you been? -I've been well.

What about you?

I've been all right.

How is your daughter doing?

This penguin is Shih Tzu's best friend.

-It's a friendly character. -Soo-jin, drink this.

Thanks.

Hey.

Is the guy you're seeing Do-hun?

Mom, can we talk later?

It's Do-hun, right?

Yes.

Hey, why would you want to hide that from me?

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Let's take it slow.

I just didn't want to shock you.

Why would you take it slow in this busy world?

Anyway, that's a great idea.

How is Do-hun?

I heard that he was in the hospital.

-Is he not feeling well? -He overworked, I think.

Mom, I want to take a shower.

-I sweated a lot. -Okay.

Ah-ram, Mom, come!

I can't find the pants Ah-ram is looking for.

They're in the bottom drawer.

Hey, I really can't find them.

Are you sure you put them back in there?

Mom, I have to pee.

Do you have to pee? Let's go to the bathroom.

Mr. Kwon Do-hun's occupational therapy appointment

has been rescheduled from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

How is Do-hun? I heard that he was in the hospital.

Is he not feeling well?

He overworked, I think.

Mom, I want to take a shower.

Mom said he has something a little worse than a cold.

MAPLE TOWN

KWON DO-HUN

Gosh.

Why isn't it working again?

Gosh, it's annoying.

Why isn't it working?

-Do-hun. -Gosh.

Do-hun.

It's me.

What happened to you?

What are you doing at a place like this?

Don't you recognize me?

I'm Soo-jin's mom.

Oh, hello.

I'm Kwon Do-hun.

Do-hun.

What happened to you?

What on earth happened to you?

What happened?

Do-hun.

Do-hun, why...

Hello.

Grandma!

Ah-ram, my sweetheart.

How was kindergarten? Are you hungry?

Let's go home. I'll make you a nice snack.

No, I'm going to sleep at Gyu-min's house today.

Right, Grandma forgot again.

"Grandma forgot again."

Let's go.

Mom, you weren't asleep?

Ah-ram isn't even here, so you should've gone to bed.

How could you?

Have you lost your mind? What are you thinking?

I'm sorry.

-I'm sorry. -You're sorry?

Is that all you can say?

Because of you,

it feels like the world has collapsed around me

and I can't even scream.

But all you can say is that you're sorry?

Mom. Stop it.

You'll hurt your hands.

This doesn't hurt at all.

Do you know how much pain you've put me through?

What? You're going on a date?

With Do-hun?

Are you going to waste your whole life

looking after a husband with Alzheimer's?

What about Ah-ram then?

What about me, who has to watch that?

Mom.

Mom.

Mom.

No.

No matter how much you want to, I won't allow it.

Even if I have to cut ties with you,

I'll never let that happen.

So don't even think about it, you fool!

Mom.
