Daddy?

It's you!

Daddy!

Daddy!

Do-hun.

Do-hun.

Do-hun!

Do-hun! Do-hun.

Do-hun!

Do-hun!

Why aren't you picking up?

You must've been surprised by your dad showing up unexpectedly.

Yes. But why did Daddy leave?

Your dad

hadn't seen you in a long time,

and I guess he was very surprised

to see how much you've grown.

Sometimes, people become speechless when they're very surprised.

You were surprised too,

-weren't you? -Yes.

-Grandma. -Yes?

Is Daddy still sick?

I guess you're worried that your dad might still be ill.

Gosh. You're such a sweetheart, Ah-ram.

What were you doing?

Where's your mind at?

I can't believe you didn't know he left.

I made sure he fell asleep.

I'm sorry.

-Did you call the police? -Yes, I did.

Did he do anything out of the ordinary in the evening?

-No, nothing. -Try to remember.

-Shall I go out and look for him? -No, just stay home.

He may come back,

so just wait there.

Okay.

I will.

He might have gotten into a different car.

There are surveillance cameras in the area.

Can't we check the footage?

We're already checking it.

He's suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

A sudden shock may lead to a dangerous situation.

Please calm down.

You have a recent photo of Mr. Kwon, right?

Here.

POLICE

The stars... I like starlight.

What happened?

He walked into a car driving from the other side.

Thankfully, the driver didn't hit him

and called us because he thought it was odd.

He didn't get hurt, right?

Yes, he's fine.

Do-hun.

I'm sorry.

I came too late, didn't I?

Thank you

for being all right.

Thank you so much.

Let's go.

I must see the starlight.

"The starlight"?

He's been saying that nonstop since he got here.

Wow, there are so many stars in the sky.

Ah-ram, shall I go get some stars for you?

Yes.

Is that star over there the North Star?

No, not that one.

-Can you see the brightest star there? -Yes.

They say you must rely on the North Star when you get lost.

Even when the seasons change,

the North Star doesn't move. It's always there.

Then is that my star?

Yes, that is Ah-ram and Mom's star.

I should be able to find

you and your Mom anytime no matter where I am.

I think I now understand

what you meant by looking at the night sky.

All the small and mundane things

that we usually don't pay attention to

are actually very precious,

shining brightly around us.

And the two people who make that even more special

are Ah-ram and you, Soo-jin.

Judging from Mr. Kwon's behaviors,

his linguistic abilities still seem to be intact,

and he's not suffering from depression.

It looks like a mentally shocking incident

has led to symptoms of abulia.

In simple terms, his condition can be

compared to someone in a deep dark cave who's given up everything.

But he can come out of the cave, right?

Unfortunately,

that doesn't happen in most cases.

Even if he recovers,

it's very unlikely that he'll return to his old self.

Do-hun, aren't you thirsty?

Do you want some water?

Do-hun.

I thought nothing would happen.

I believed in you.

Thank you for coming back to me.

All I need is

for you to come back to me like you did now.

And you can take your time.

You are a wonder

and a miracle to me.

So please,

show me your wonder and miracle

once more.

Soo-jin.

Is Do-hun all right?

Daddy is here.

Daddy!

Were you worried Daddy wouldn't come back?

Yes, but Grandma told me he would.

Is Daddy still sick?

Yes, he is.

He can't wake up

even if you call him.

Why?

Were you very surprised?

I should have been with you on that day.

It's all my fault.

I'm sorry, Do-hun.

The hours you were missing

felt like forever.

It was terrifying.

I was scared

I'd never find you again.

I didn't know what I'd do without you.

Do-hun.

Even though you're not answering,

you are listening, right?

Brian.

I don't think I can do this.

I'll have to quit my job.

I think I should focus on Do-hun for the time being.

I'm sorry.

Let's talk in person soon.

All right.

Because of the hot weather,

I have to wash Ah-ram's clothes every day.

That kid sweats a lot.

Leave it. I can do it.

It's okay.

Has Do-hun fallen asleep?

You didn't get any sleep either. Are you okay?

Go in and get some sleep.

You look haggard.

I'm fine.

Are you worried about Do-hun?

Soo-jin.

I'll keep an eye on him.

So, get some sleep.

I'm worried you'll collapse first.

You have a long way to go.

You can't go on like this.

You have to stay strong

to look after Ah-ram and Do-hun.

That's the only way you'll make it.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I'll stop making you worry.

You have a lot of experience.

-Thank you. -This is more than enough for us.

Can you start as soon as we open?

-Yes, I can. -I see.

Do you have any questions?

Will your second restaurant look like this too?

Yes, it'll look pretty much the same.

Then could I take a look in the kitchen?

Of course. Let me show you.

It's pretty small.

I see.

Three burners.

Yes.

What's going on?

You're here.

This is Baek Su-a, the chef of our first restaurant.

He came to interview for the chef position at our second restaurant.

He wanted to look around the kitchen.

If you're done, can you please get out?

I have to get ready for today's work.

Of course. Excuse me.

I'll be going now.

All right.

Are you taking the subway?

-Yes. -Let me see.

Do you know where the station is?

-It's... -I can show you.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

I said, no leftovers in my kitchen.

My principle is to use up all the ingredients each day.

So, don't cut anything beforehand.

I also told you not to use a slicer because it won't help your knife skills.

It's the right shape and thickness. What's wrong?

If you want to work in the kitchen, learn the basics first.

And why is it so hard to cut this with a knife?

It affects the texture.

No one will be able to tell.

And why would you throw away all this food?

Are you going to completely ignore my principles now?

This is my kitchen.

-I own this restaurant. -Even so,

I'm in charge of the kitchen. Get out.

-Get out where? -Get out of my kitchen!

What's with you today?

"Our second restaurant's chef"?

We have to find someone, don't we?

Are you serious?

I already signed the contract and found a chef.

Can't you let it go?

Weren't you listening when I said I wasn't going to help you?

How could you find a chef, not even pretending to think again?

What's the problem?

Everyone else is this busy.

I have to be busy now to take it easy later.

Who cares what happens later?

To me, the present I have with you

matters more than the future that hasn't come yet.

If the present matters so much to you,

why can't you understand me at this moment?

Honey, why can't we...

-Fine. -Fine?

-Find a chef. -Find a chef?

Did you like that guy earlier?

Find one more.

One more?

For our first restaurant too.

You're doing all this to make things easier for me,

and I'm okay with that.

I'll take it easy from next week,

so find another chef for this place too.

How pretty.

Mommy.

-Yes? -When will Daddy get better?

Can't I play with him again?

Do you want to play with him?

Yes. I want to ride my bicycle

and take Maru for a walk.

Ah-ram.

Actually,

even if you try to wake up Daddy many times,

he might not be able to wake up for a long time.

Will he be sleeping all the time

like Sleeping Beauty?

Will he never go back to being my daddy?

He'll always be your daddy.

Ah-ram, you do know

Daddy is a bit sick, right?

His illness makes him

keep forgetting things.

Does he forget things?

Yes, he forgets things.

That's why he might forget how to play with you

or how to talk.

What if we do it like this?

If Daddy keeps forgetting because of his illness,

we'll remember him instead.

You and I can do it instead?

Yes.

If Daddy forgets to tell us that he loves us,

you can tell him instead.

Tell him that we love him

and that he loves us back.

You can remind him.

I love Daddy this much!

Good. Then let's tell Daddy that we love him tomorrow.

Okay.

-We'd like to order. -Okay.

-Can I take your order? -We'll have a grilled skewer

and fried shrimp.

Thank you.

-Sir. -Yes?

-One more bottle of soju, please. -Okay.

-Thank you. -Enjoy your meal.

Take the taxi home first.

I'm going night fishing.

He better not come home. I won't open the door.

Hello?

Soo-cheol, it's me.

Pack your stuff. Let's go night fishing with Do-hun.

Let's go on a men's night out.

I have so much to say.

-Hang-seo. -What?

What's up with your voice? Is something wrong?

Do-hun

went back to his house.

What? Why?

His condition worsened.

He doesn't say a word

and doesn't even react to anyone.

I can't believe it.

He probably won't recognize you either.

Having a friend who has Alzheimer's is the worst.

Do you know what the absolute worst is?

Trying to help someone when you don't have anything yourself.

That's the worst.

Hey. You should quit fishing

and spend more time with your wife.

Stop giving things up for someone else. Live for yourself.

Soon, I'll even forget you.

Don't worry.

I'll never forget you.

But it's painful to watch you.

You can't go on like this.

Do-hun has to be sent to a care home.

Mom, you're leaving?

I should get going.

I'm worried about you, but Soo-cheol seems depressed too.

You should give him a call later.

I will.

The bus is coming.

Ah-ram, get ready to get on the bus.

-Wait. -Okay.

Daddy, I love you.

Have fun, my pumpkin!

Daddy, bye! Grandma, Mommy, bye!

Do-hun.

Let's do it together.

I'll help you. Let's do it together.

You helped me the most when I was struggling.

I just want to help you too.

You jerk.

You said you like living here

because there are so many stars, right?

Just like when we were young.

There are so many stars.

When we were kids, you were so good at slap-match.

The king of slap-match.

You literally won everyone else's cards.

I thought you would become a gambler when you grew up.

Do you remember in high school?

That snack cart in front of our school.

We went to eat noodles

and lied to the owner and drank two bottles of soju.

Then we hopped on the bus to get home

but fell asleep and went all the way to the last stop.

Do you remember that last bus stop?

It was pitch dark, without even a single light.

You and I walked home for so long,

and it felt like an eternity.

I slept at your house that day because I was afraid of my mom. Remember?

It'd be nice

if we drank soju and walked like that again.

Talk about some great timing.

-How about a drink? -A drink?

Is something wrong?

He really doesn't recognize you either?

-He doesn't say anything? -No.

I think he's forgotten everything.

Talking, and even wearing an expression.

It's not like we didn't expect

this would happen to Do-hun.

That's true.

But it happened so suddenly.

I still have so much to say to him.

Today,

we will draw a secret drawing.

You can't see anything, right?

After that,

we will use paint like this.

All right.

Ta-da!

-Isn't it amazing? -Yes.

Now, it's your turn to draw.

And when you go home, show off to your parents, okay?

-Okay. -Okay.

Now, hold the candle and start drawing.

Draw whatever you like.

Daddy. Look at this, okay?

I'm so curious to see what it'll become.

Wow.

That is very cool.

Ta-da. This is Dad.

And this is me.

Dad, this is you.

I think your dad really likes your drawing.

Look, he can't take his eyes off your drawing.

-Right? -Yes.

Dad. You like it too, right?

Daddy says he likes it too.

See? I told you.

Yes.

I'll leave you two to your conversation, then.

About that day, I apologize on his behalf.

As you saw, Do-hun isn't well.

I'm also sorry for making you leave like that.

No, I'm sorry for coming by unannounced.

Is your arm okay?

Then shall we wrap up the Lumi Chocolate case?

This shows that Mr. Kwon's rights have been reinstated.

CONFIRMATION OF PATENT REGISTRATION

Then what's going to happen to Yu-myeong Confectionery,

the company that's selling the chocolate now?

The rights that were registered under Seo Ju-a

have been transferred to Mr. Kwon,

so the exclusive license that Yu-myeong Confectionery had obtained

means nothing now.

Also, they'll have to sign a new contract with Mr. Kwon

if they wish to continue selling the chocolate.

And obviously, you don't have to sign a contract

with Yu-myeong Confectionery if you don't want to.

What I want is

relaunching the product as "Lumi Chocolate",

which was Do-hun's original plan.

Okay. Then shall I start negotiating with Yu-myeong Confectionery right away?

If you're okay with it, I'd like to talk to them directly.

Will you be okay though?

I'd like to talk to them. Please arrange a meeting for me.

All right. Let's do that, then.

Maru! Maru.

Maru.

I HEAR THE SOUND OF YOUR BREATH. I FEEL YOUR LOVE. THANK YOU

Do-hun, I'm going to make sure

you can reclaim the chocolate you developed.

The first character I designed, "Lovely Butterfly, Lumi."

The healthy chocolate you developed.

That's why you named it Lumi Chocolate.

You made it.

You made it for Ah-ram.

How did you come up with such a brilliant idea?

I think we'll be able to give

Lumi Chocolate to Ah-ram soon, just as you had hoped.

When that happens,

Ah-ram will be so happy.

-Right? -Come here, Maru!

Maru!

Ouch!

It hurts.

Ah-ram.

Are you all right?

Oh, no. Are you hurt?

-No, I'm fine. -"No, I'm fine."

Come to Mommy.

Come here! Come to Mommy!

I fell because of you. You made me...

Hey, Ah-ram.

You made me fall.

Maru! Come here.

Maru, Maru!

Maru, Maru!

Maru.

Do-hun.

We have to put a stamp on it.

Ah-ram is so cute, isn't she?

-Yes. -Do you want to do it?

I want to do it with Daddy.

This is so beautiful.

I'd love to get a handwritten letter from someone.

What? You're asking me to write one, right?

A handwritten letter? Forget it. It's so cheesy.

What? What's cheesy about it?

Just tell me if there's anything you want.

That will be much easier.

How could you make such a materialistic remark

when you're the one who suggested making this clip?

Gosh, they are not the same thing.

I've never written a letter in my entire life.

Forget it. Now, I know for sure your words and actions don't match.

Why are you making such a fuss over just a handwritten letter?

"A fuss"?

All right, okay. Gosh, Ye-rim.

Do you want to get a handwritten letter?

I'll write you a letter if you're good to me.

Whatever.

I think all the scripts that passed the second screening

are pretty weak overall.

What are your thoughts?

Is there anything else we should evaluate

or any script you want to endorse?

Everyone thinks differently,

so there might be some good scripts we didn't include in the roster.

Each team should make a suggestion.

I have a suggestion.

In the midst of the warlike, cutthroat office life,

love blooms.

And what if it's set in the National Assembly?

I think it's a good idea.

What about you, Mr. Jeong?

I want to suggest this.

The subject matter isn't original,

but most people date and break up casually these days.

Considering how people are nowadays, I think it'll be a good one.

It's about pure love.

It's not even autumn yet. But someone's being overly sentimental.

It doesn't even suit him.

You're wrong. It suits me perfectly.

-No, it doesn't. -You're wrong.

In any case, there's got to be a reason why the scripts

passed the second screening.

I'm not sure if it's right to bring in new scripts

at this stage.

And the two of us aren't even in the planning team.

We'll just get back to work.

Well, that is true.

Let's finish up the meeting.

Ye-rim.

Ye-rim, are you mad at me?

I'm sorry.

Shall I go pick up some tteokbokki?

The spicy one?

Okay.

-Hi, Mi-gyeong. -Hey, Brian.

Didn't you say you were coming by for the interview today?

Oh, the interview. Yes, I should.

I have to do it,

but I'm in a meeting with someone important right now.

Yes, I'll head over there as soon as the meeting is done.

My gosh, I'm so sorry.

Yes, okay.

That was Soo-jin's friend, Mi-gyeong.

I totally forgot I was supposed to interview her today.

I guess you wouldn't want to come with me

because you're in a bad mood.

What should I do? I can't shoot without you.

I'm already so overwhelmed.

Would you come with me?

-Are you nervous? -A little.

Try to relax.

How are you feeling?

Almost finished.

Honestly, when Soo-jin said she was moving back in

with her husband who has Alzheimer's,

I had to try to stop her as her friend.

Ah-ram is too young.

You did a good job.

I'm embarrassed.

I cry so easily as I'm getting older.

-Did I do a good job? -You did an amazing job.

The harsh things you said were for Soo-jin's sake.

Not just Do-hun,

but Soo-jin also needs someone who puts her first.

Brian.

You're a good judge of people.

Thank you for today.

I'll be in the parking lot.

-Thank you. -Bye.

Brian. Hey.

Is something going on between you two?

No way.

You can't stop glancing at each other secretly. It shows.

Does it?

I'm the only one left out.

-I suddenly feel so lonely. -You feel lonely?

Where are all your young boyfriends?

UGLY

-Mi-gyeong. -Yes?

What do girls like?

What makes them feel better when they're angry?

When they're angry?

Rings, necklaces, expensive bags.

I'm not talking about those materialistic things.

I want to give her a gift full of my heart.

What? No one makes paper cranes or writes letters anymore

to show their hearts.

You can show your heart by buying her an expensive gift.

Content matters, but format matters even more.

I can't believe you.

You're so much more old-fashioned than I thought.

BANDI KINDERGARTEN: DADDY'S DAY SCHEDULE

Do you want Daddy to come?

Yes.

But he might not be able to say anything now.

Is that okay?

He can talk.

Ah-ram, I know

you love Daddy a lot.

Do you know that Daddy loves you a lot too?

Yes. He told me he loved me.

He told me three times.

I see.

Daddy, what are you drawing?

Stars.

Twinkling stars?

Yes.

A star.

A star.

Mommy, look at this.

-Daddy drew it. -Really?

Let me see.

They're stars.

He said he likes stars.

Did he really say that he likes stars?

Yes. He said that after finishing his drawing. Why?

Is it fun to draw with a candle?

Do-hun, did you tell Ah-ram that you like stars?

Can you draw something else too?

It's a star again.

Next time,

I hope you'll draw something else for me.

Ah-ram! Do-hun!

Are you okay? Aren't you hurt?

Are you okay?

Daddy, are you okay?

Daddy, are you okay?

It hurts.

Does it hurt a lot?

It hurts.

Let me blow on it.

-It doesn't hurt anymore, does it? -No.

Mommy, look at this.

I did it for him.

It looks pretty.

Daddy said it hurt a lot.

-Did you blow on it? -Yes.

He says it doesn't hurt anymore.

I HEAR THE SOUND OF YOUR BREATH. I FEEL YOUR LOVE. THANK YOU

Hi.

-You're here. -Yes.

You must have slept well last night.

You look very well today.

By the way, have you seen a colored paper card?

A colored paper card?

The yellow card that was hanging next to the photos.

It's missing.

It means a lot to me.

I see.

I'll look for it.

Thank you.

You're not hungry yet, are you?

I'll prepare some food after cleaning up here.

You can take off your backpack.

What did you learn at kindergarten today?

I learned the "Hop Hop Song."

Do you want to show Daddy later?

-Yes. -Right.

Ah-ram, did you see Daddy's colored paper card

that was hung up on the living room photo card wall?

Think carefully.

Maybe you liked his card so much

that you put it somewhere else.

I didn't.

Then I wonder where it is.

Then do you think

Daddy could have hidden it?

-You should go wash your hands first. -Okay.

I'll brush the princess's hair,

so hold her carefully.

Oh, right.

Did you hide the colored paper card that was over there?

Where did you hide it?

You don't know?

Do-hun, it's time to go to bed.

Ah-ram, stop playing now and get ready for bed.

Mom, Daddy said he hid it.

What?

The colored paper card.

But he doesn't know where he hid it.

Really?

Did he really say that?

Yes. Daddy and I were talking all this time.

I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE, SITTING IN FRONT OF ME

May 19, 2019.

It's 11:28 p.m.

Something unbelievable is happening.

I'm truly happy about everything,

and I feel grateful for each day.

The woman I love, Soo-jin

and my daughter Ah-ram

laughed, ate dinner,

and fell asleep with me at my home.

I can't believe a day like this has come.

So,

you must endure it, Do-hun.

Although there's no time, and it's already late,

you must endure it in order to make

many memories

with the people you love.

April 6, 2019.

It's 10:25 p.m.

Today, you saw your wife, your everything,

the love of your life, Soo-jin.

You prepared the development proposal for Lumi Chocolate

for Ah-ram and Soo-jin,

and you handed it to Mr. Seo today.

It was by chance that you met Soo-jin.

No.

It was a miracle.

Her eyes look just like yours.

And her lips and forehead

look just like Soo-jin's, the woman you must never forget.

Her hand was about this big.

It was so small and beautiful

that I was afraid to hold it.

Today is a miraculous day

because I met a true angel.

I'll continue to lose more memory every day,

but I must

never forget today.

Whatever it may be, you must cling on to your memory

and never forget today.

And,

Soo-jin raised Ah-ram

to be such a lovely, adorable girl.

I love her...

and I'm so grateful to her.

And I'm sorry.

I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE, SITTING IN FRONT OF ME

HOWEVER, I...

I don't know who you are,

sitting in front of me.

However,

I love you.

Whoever you are,

I can feel it.

That you are the person I love.

My heart

and my love

always belonged to you.

Ah-ram, about Daddy's Day...

Daddy can't go because he's sick.

But he said he was going to go.

Daddy.

Mommy said no to everything.

You promised me like this.

That you'd be on my side.

Both Ah-ram and Do-hun were fine with it.

But I guess I was the only one who was afraid.

It's not like only good things become memories.

This is a forget-me-not.

Thanks.

We'll encourage each other to do better

and help each other when we make mistakes.

Time is more precious

-Ah-ram is over there. -for us.

Do-hun, I have a wish.

Please, don't suffer.

Can you do that?

Soo-jin.

Do-hun.
