Original subtitles

Now, I don't think I know that man anymore.

What do I...

Father, I'm sorry. Please excuse me.

Why don't we find out what kind of person he is?

What are you doing?

You call yourself a priest yet you approach my woman?

-Are you sure she's your woman? -What did you say?

If she's your woman, you shouldn't make her feel sad.

What's the matter?

Did something happen? Is somebody bothering you?

I guess someone is.

I wonder who's bothering her. He's making this nice girl cry.

Who are you really?

Are you some kind of con artist?

What's funny?

Please excuse me.

What's the matter?

How am I supposed to know if you don't tell me?

I don't want to talk to you. Please let me go.

No, I won't. I'm the one who should be angry right now.

I told you to keep up with appearances as my wife.

Appearances?

You mean acting one way in front of someone

and acting completely differently behind that person's back?

Why would you say something like that?

Lee Geon.

-What is it? -What am I to you?

-What do I mean to you? -You are...

Is that what this is about?

Mi-yeong, you're my child's precious mother.

Until the child is born,

you are a very, very precious person

who has a responsibility to keep up appearances

and take care of yourself.

After the child is born, I won't mean anything to you.

Our relationship is contractual, like a leasing agreement.

-Nothing more, nothing less. Right? -Why are you doing this to me?

-What do you want to hear? -I get it now.

Don't worry about me anymore.

Cry if you feel like it.

You don't have to keep it inside.

I don't know why I keep crying.

I already know that our relationship doesn't mean anything.

Who am I to say anything?

But Yeoul Island is...

the place where my dad is buried. He loved me so much.

And my family lives there.

I'm so angry with that man.

I know I shouldn't...

What should I do?

Please tell me, Father.

I'm sorry, Mi-yeong.

I can't do this anymore.

What?

To tell you the truth...

I'm not really a priest.

I've always felt bad that...

you thought of me as a priest.

I just wanted to help you.

I wasn't trying to fool you on purpose.

If I had told you the truth, I was afraid you'd be too disappointed,

so I kept putting it off, but I wanted to tell you today. Of all days...

I'm really sorry.

What's wrong with the snail?

Sir.

Sir, it's an emergency.

The executives are scrutinizing the triple penalty we paid

when we cancelled the sale of the soap factory.

The shareholders are trying to use this and lacking sales to dismiss you.

I'm going to make it all back with the new product line, so don't worry.

That's the President I know!

We've contacted that famous Pitt guy, so success is inevitable!

Can I assume everything went well today?

I didn't even meet him today.

Get in touch with him again and arrange a meeting.

But you went all the way there yourself!

I know that. But why did she have to be there?

What?

Who?

It's nothing.

-Where are you going now? -I need to feed my snail.

Mom, I'm sorry.

We weren't right for each other to begin with.

Where's my snail?

I brought you something sweet.

Aren't you hungry, my snail?

Where is she?

Tada!

What's this?

Why does it look like you're running away from home?

I'm going back to Yeoul Island for a while.

Why all of a sudden?

-You saw your mother already. -I'm worried about my island.

What an excuse!

Is the island going to walk away from you or something?

And have you forgotten the terms of our contract?

Until the baby is born, we're a married couple.

Have you forgotten?

There's no clause saying that we always have to be together.

What's with the sudden change in character?

Were you struck by lightning today?

You told me that you didn't want to see me around.

-So I'm just doing that. -Alright, okay.

I don't care where you go.

But don't forget that you're carrying...

the 23rd generation of the Lee family bloodline.

And you're the mother.

So make sure you act accordingly.

I don't know how you think of me...

but I've never done anything that I'm ashamed of.

Really? Alright, I understand.

When we're alone,

we don't have to act like we're married.

The only reason we're together is because of the child.

Understand?

Mi-yeong?

Are you going somewhere?

You're right on time. I've been preparing this for you.

Wait a second.

MI-YEONG, PLEASE FORGIVE ME

I'M SORRY

My goodness gracious.

This is good. So good.

It tastes even better without the snail around.

I hope you come across a frog, you snail.

I'm free!

This is good.

So good...

Let's celebrate!

Darn, it's only Tak.

Why would she text when she just left home?

How does my cafe look? Not bad, right?

Yeah.

You haven't forgiven me yet, have you?

That's not it.

I've thought about it and I'd like to apologize.

Even though you're not a priest, you listened to me.

And you even prayed for me.

Thank you.

That's the point I've been meaning to stress!

You haven't eaten dinner, have you?

Eat before you go. I cook a mean pasta dish.

Give me a moment.

I have to exercise!

The snail is gone and I've had a cake,

so I should exercise now! I feel like exercising right now!

No calls.

I win!

I win.

You're good.

Little snail...

She must have called me by now.

There's no...

I've gotten...

There's no call.

DO YOU WISH TO DELETE THIS PHOTO? CANCEL, CONFIRM

CANCEL

She's following the terms of the contract, so what's the problem?

I drew that.

-Isn't she pretty? -Yes.

Who is it?

Kim Mi-yeong.

-No, really. Who is it? -It's really Kim Mi-yeong.

She's the sister I lost when I was young.

Her name was the same as yours.

I lost contact with her when I was adopted to America.

I've been looking for her.

I see.

I want to find her as soon as possible.

She was kind, like you.

I'm afraid that she's being abused

or that she's suffering somewhere.

She has the same name as me?

Then I'm sure she's happy.

I'm sure she's being loved by the person she loves...

and I'm sure she has someone who worries for her.

Don't lose hope.

You're the one who shouldn't lose hope.

You must be tired. You're avoiding him, aren't you?

Let's redefine our relationship.

Brother and sister, how about it?

From now on, I'll be there for you, just like a big brother.

Then let me tell you this as your big brother.

Go back home tonight.

He may be a bad husband, but I'm sure he's worried about you.

What a huge house.

No, this isn't right.

Kim Mi-yeong.

Why did you make me worry about you when you were coming back anyway?

I forgot to say goodbye to grandmother, so I felt bad...

What about me?

What about me?

Do you have any idea how worried I was?

The 23rd generation...

Him or her...

The child in your stomach...

I'm well aware of that.

Let's talk tomorrow. We'll talk about it tomorrow.

I make things harder for you, don't I?

I wanted to thank you.

When everyone was calling me a Post-it girl,

you're the only one who told me

to become superglue. To be confident.

I won't forget that.

-Why are you bringing that up now? -I just wanted to tell you that.

DIVORCE AGREEMENT

Sir!

Sir!

I've finally done it! I've done it, yes sir!

I've finally got a hold of him.

The man who never shows himself, the man who's difficult to track down,

D. Pitt!

He will be arriving momentarily!

You really are amazing, Mr. Tak!

Stop overreacting like that.

It's too hard for me to keep up with you.

Why can't you ever keep your composure?

Freeze!

Welcome.

It's an honor.

You're D. Pitt?

You can call me Daniel.

So we finally meet, President Lee Geon.

Now that you know I'm not a priest, can you stop glaring at me?

-I try to stay away from attention. -I knew something smelled fishy.

Very fishy.

So you finally admit that you're a con artist?

Instead of arguing who's the worse man,

let's get down to business.

You've agreed to our offer for collaboration?

I'm sure you're aware.

What's the real reason you want to work with us?

I really want to work here now.

But that attitude really disturbs me.

Is it because of my wife?

Yes, it's because of Mi-yeong.

Did you forget that I just called her my wife?

I seem to have forgotten that fact...

since you've never treated her as your wife.

But it looks like it still bothers you.

Mind your own business.

Stop worrying about my wife.

That won't be easy.

I'm good at spotting rough gems.

And Mi-yeong is the most precious one there is.

This is my new job.

Are you like a visiting tutor? Reading to children and stuff?

Yeah, and I sell them too.

The children will benefit from my vibrant reading voice.

Ji-yeon, is this really what you want to do?

Nobody really works because they want to.

I'm sure it'll lead to bigger and better things.

I meant to buy some of these anyway.

-I want this one. One set! -Make sure you buy the entire set.

The drawings are good.

If possible, tell your husband to read it out loud.

I heard children respond better to the father's lower tone of voice.

Really?

I guess I should.

Let's enjoy our bean noodles.

Why isn't your wife ever around?

-Are you putting her properly in line? -What do you mean, put her in line?

It wouldn't be enough to treat her like a queen right now!

Don't you know how precious a new baby is in this household?

Madam Wang, these noodles are delicious.

So satisfying.

Go fetch the kimchi.

What's the matter? What's wrong, Geon?

-Is something wrong with the soup? -Gosh, what's with this smell?

What is this smell?

What's wrong with you all of a sudden?

Are you unwell? Should we go to the hospital?

I'm not going to the hospital for this!

Get him a glass of water!

I'm home.

-Yeah, welcome back. -I'm home.

Stop opening the refrigerator door...

Do you both have morning sickness?

Gosh, very special indeed.

We should celebrate!

You two are so meant for one another!

Madam Wang,

a man doesn't get morning sickness. I just have some indigestion right now.

One can't go anywhere near the fridge when one has morning sickness.

The two of you should eat inside your room from now on.

You can look into each other's eyes as you eat.

I'm at a loss for words. So unbelievable.

Does it make any sense to you? They said I have morning sickness.

I don't know what's wrong with me these days!

It's not morning sickness. You'll feel better soon enough.

But are you going through morning sickness?

Yes, I think so.

Just a moment.

If you eat more, you'll feel better.

Go on and eat.

By the way,

are you really...

going back to Yeoul Island?

Maybe not immediately, but eventually, yes.

So it's not certain yet?

Mi-ja!

Fresh juice. Drink up.

What brings you to Seoul all of a sudden?

Yeah, your sister hasn't even been married for very long.

We're going to move up here anyway, so we're house hunting in the area.

You're looking already?

You should take your time.

I won't be able to move soon, so we need to decide on a place.

Right.

We've stopped by a couple of places

but it seems the prices are high here in Seoul.

You should start at a semi-basement.

Dark and musty, I've been there before.

Thanks to the President...

I mean, thanks to our new brother-in-law,

we have an opportunity to live here in Seoul.

Well, I...

It's not like I've done much at all!

As soon as it's prepared, the headquarters will contact you.

The headquarters.

-The headquarters? -Right.

Your family finally came to visit you.

Why don't you show them your rooms?

Yeah, I want to see!

-Can we show you later? -Right.

-It's a bit messy right now. -It's messy, yeah it is.

-Shall I help you clean? -Yeah, right.

No, it's alright.

I'll do it.

Sure.

Can we come in?

This is humongous.

What's this? A model house?

Mi-ja, I told you not to come in until I call.

It's alright.

There's no need to clean it, it's already clean.

It smells.

Here, too.

It smells everywhere!

What do you mean it smells in here?

I can smell the money here.

Of course you can!

Of course.

-Take a picture for me. -Alright.

When else would we ever be in a place like this?

Okay. One, two...

-You two take one too. -Yeah, stand right there.

One, two...

I'm sending Mom this picture.

One, two!

She's going to rest easy once she sees these.

One, two.

Tell her she's really happy here.

-We're really happy. -Seems so!

Mi-yeong's found the perfect man!

Are we all going to ride the ferry later?

-A double-date seems like a fun idea. -It would be.

-Of course... -Of course he can't go, he's busy.

I told you he's really busy at work.

I'm busy.

I'm really busy today, of all days!

I'm busy, right? Yeah, busy.

-Then we'll go without you. -I'm busy, yeah.

I'm busy.

Busy... I'm busy...

The smell!

I love the smell of the ocean, but a river will have to do.

But Mi-ja, is it okay to travel so much with your stomach like that?

I have you next to me, so what do have I to fear?

Really?

Come here you vixen, you.

I love you.

I was hoping your husband could join us.

Let's not bother a busy person, and have a good time by ourselves.

Alright, he can join us next time.

Let's go.

Why?

One, two...

-Smile. -Okay, honey.

Mi-ja, smile.

One, two...

Over there.

I'm sorry.

Goodness me.

That phrase is almost a reflex with you, huh?

How did you get here?

It turns out that I got off early today.

I thought I should get some fresh air, feed some seagulls...

This is the river, not the ocean.

What are you thinking?

Why are you always going places alone when you have a husband?

We're a contract couple.

You don't have to act like you care when we're alone.

Let me get this straight.

You expect me to treat you one way in public

and ignore you when we're alone?

Is that the kind of guy you take me for?

Stop thinking that nonsense, and know that while you're with me,

you can depend on me.

My shoulders are broader than they may seem

and they're big enough to support you.

What's the matter now?

I don't think I said anything wrong.

What is your true nature?

-What do you mean? -I don't get who you really are.

What are you talking about?

You've said that before, but what you see here is the real Geon.

Why do you keep saying strange things?

Then why did you sell the factory to that awful company?

What? You knew about that?

You may not know it, but my family really likes you.

I can understand that it was a business decision

but I think it's wrong to sell it to a company

that will build an industrial landfill.

If that happens, it would ruin Yeoul Island,

and it would ruin my family and friends as well.

So that's what was bothering you?

I get it now.

You're right.

I can understand now why you acted the way you have.

Let me explain.

What happened was...

What's this I'm hearing?

You sold the factory to who and what?

It's not true, is it?

-Right? -I did agree to sell it, but...

Why, you son of a...

-What did you say? -Stop!

-You sold it for what? -Listen to me!

You need to listen to me first!

Is that why Mi-yeong seems depressed, and the reason for her odd behavior?

That's not it.

-No! -I'm going to break you in half today.

-My hair! -Let go of him and talk!

-What did you do? -It hurts!

You're going to hurt yourself.

My hair!

Mi-ja?

-What? -What's the matter, Mi-ja?

What is it?

-Mi-ja? -Let me get up!

-What's the matter? -What is it?

-Where does it hurt? -My goodness.

-Where are you hurting? -Oh, no.

-Goodness. -What is it?

-My head! -Wait, hold up!

-My hair! -Careful!

Here.

Sit down.

Oh my!

-I'm going to die! -At this rate, I'll die first!

-I'm dying too, me too. -Mi-ja, please let go.

I'll explain the entire situation, so let go of me.

My poor mother!

She has no idea that her beloved son-in-law

is turning the factory into a landfill!

She was so happy about her new son-in-law!

Please let go.

-You're going to pull his hair out. -Mi-yeong.

How can you take this jerk's side?

I didn't sell it.

I didn't do it!

I didn't go through with it.

Really?

-You didn't sell it? -No, I didn't.

I didn't do it.

There, I said it.

This is exhausting.

You're not lying, are you?

See, what happened was...

Doctor!

Are you a doctor?

You're not? Are you a doctor?

No? You're not?

Are you a doctor?

Is there any doctor here?

Doctor...

-Any doctors here? -No, there isn't.

Doctor? Is there a doctor?

No?

Darn it! This is ridiculous!

In the movies, someone always appears

when you call for a doctor.

We have no other choice. According to Chairwoman Wang,

people have given birth even before there were any doctors around. Okay.

Slowly.

Did you call an ambulance?

They're waiting, but we won't get to the dock for another 20 minutes.

-20 minutes? -What do we do?

We'll have to make do with what we have.

We can do this. Calm her down.

I'm so scared.

-What if something goes wrong? -Nothing's going to go wrong!

Stop saying that, Mi-ja!

If it comes to a choice between the baby and me,

be sure to choose our baby.

Stop saying that!

Everything will be alright.

But if you remarry, you're dead meat.

Raise the child alone.

-If I die... -No!

You won't die! Let go of her hands. Let her hold on to this.

Hold it tightly.

Okay. Listen to me now.

Get a grip and listen to me. Do you feel contractions?

Does it feel weird and uncomfortable?

I think so.

Whenever you feel it coming, hold on to this tightly. Understand?

Okay. Start the timer.

Okay.

-It's coming... -It's here.

-It comes once every minute. -One minute. A minute.

This means, we're at the third stage.

Stage three is when the baby goes through the placenta and starts coming out.

Give it a push. Help her breathe. Breathing is the most important.

Exhale!

Exhale!

Inhale!

Exhale!

Inhale!

Good. The baby is coming any moment now.

Go down there and wait for the baby's head.

-What? -Look for the baby.

Look for the head, the baby's head!

Give it to me, go look! Go!

Down there!

Okay, start pushing.

Oh, mommy...

Honey!

Mi-yeong, you take over. Again! Breathe.

One, two, three! Push!

-It's coming! Mi-ja, push! -She said it's coming! Last time!

One, two, three! Push!

Good! Push harder!

-Geon, thank you so much! -It was nothing.

Mi-yeong's...

You had it the worst.

If it wasn't for you, Geon, my sister wouldn't have had her child.

I did do everything.

-Mother. -Mom, come in.

Mi-ja!

Mi-ja, good work. Good work.

The child looks just like the two of you.

Just like you!

Mom!

-Yes. -I'm so sorry to you.

I never knew that you had to go through this.

I'll be better to you from now on.

So now you finally grow up on me?

It's your turn next, so get ready.

-I'll be good to you too, Mom. -Okay.

I heard that my son-in-law was the hero today?

-Come here, my son. -Mom!

Good work! You did amazing today.

Oh, Geon. Thanks for building the community center.

It's nothing.

What's that? Community center?

He's going to build a community center at the site of the factory,

so everyone is overjoyed!

There will be massage chairs, treadmills, foot bath machines and such.

Why didn't I know about this?

You came to Seoul with your wife when it happened.

-I did that. That was me. -Geon, want to hold the child?

What?

You saved our island and you helped give birth to my child.

But, I...

-What if I drop him? -Hold the child once.

You'll be a father yourself soon, so you should practice.

Here.

-Be careful. -Careful.

He's small.

And he looks like ET.

-He doesn't look like ET... -Which star did you come from?

Which one?

Is there anything you need?

Go sleep on the bed tonight.

I'll sleep here tonight.

But this is my place.

You never listen to me. You have quite the temper.

I'm used to sleeping here now.

I thought you never refuse people, but you sure refuse me a lot.

Go sleep on the bed!

Go to bed!

That's where you belong!

Hurry up, go to sleep. The bed's where you belong.

-Go to sleep. Good night. -Good night.

-Sleep tight. -You too.

It's so uncomfortable here.

How did she sleep here?

I can't get comfortable on this.

Who is it?

Thank you very much for today.

I'm Lee Geon.

It's the least you can expect from me.

And I'll be careful not to bother you again.

When the time comes, I'll disappear like an old Post-it.

I'll be sure to fulfill our contract.

You don't have to worry about anything.

Sir.

Sir?

-Mr. Tak. -Yes?

Book me a flight to New York next week.

Why...

Are you finally going to face the music?

This isn't fair to both Se-ra and Mi-yeong.

I should meet with Se-ra and end things with her.

Look into it for me.

Yes, I understand.

What's that sound?

If you give me a rice cake, I'll spare your life!

Please spare me!

Please spare me!

What do you think you're doing?

Your hair looks ghastly.

I almost fainted seeing you back here.

You weren't asleep?

How can I sleep with all of those ghostly sounds?

What's that?

-It's nothing. -It looks like something to me.

Let me see that.

Hand it over.

What's this?

THE SUN AND THE MOON

Reading books to the child already?

They say it's good for the unborn child.

It reassures the child.

Why did you have to choose such a scary book?

There are plenty of sweet and cute stories out there.

But since you've put in the effort...

This is your father reading for you now.

Let me pick up from where you left off.

So, the tiger received the rice cake.

The tiger's mouth waters for the cakes.

Then he heard a sound.

Then, when the tiger sees the cakes, he swipes it away!

I think the tiger has pretty terrible timing.

But anyway, that's what the tiger did.

Give me another one!

And another one!

Give me one more and I'll spare your life!

Then the tiger got really mad and...

I'LL DO AS OUR CONTRACT SAYS. DON'T YOU WORRY A BIT.

Do you have something to say?

I don't want you to live like a Post-it.

I don't want you to feel useless and worthless with me.

Mi-yeong, you're superglue.

Remember?

Geon...

I'll go now.

Goodnight.

Sleep well.

Oh my!

-My back! It's split into two! -What's wrong? Are you hurting?

-I'm not even the one who gave birth! -Oh my gosh.

-My back... -Try getting up. Carefully.

-Carefully... -Yeah, carefully.

Oh no, what do we do?

A little more!

-I won't make it up there! -You can't?

See, I told you I would sleep on the sofa.

You just take the bed and I'll sleep on the sofa. Goodnight.

Don't be stupid.

Stop for a moment and think!

You're pregnant so you should be comfortable.

But it's uncomfortable for you there.

-Then I guess we have no other choice. -What are we going to do?

To be completely fair,

with no emotions involved...

We can just sleep

in the same bed.

What?

Why do you seem so surprised?

-You're not getting ideas, are you? -No. But that's...

You're suddenly talking about together, sleeping...

We're going to be together until our baby's born,

so must we use different rooms?

Let's just share the bed.

I won't lay a hand on you. No touching.

Do you have any feelings for me?

No, nothing like that.

Me neither. I absolutely have no feelings.

Then I guess we can sleep next to each other like a pair of logs.

Right, like logs.

No problem.

So, from now on, if either of us leaves this bed,

it means that person has feelings for the other person.

How about that?

It means you feel something.

Okay.

Let's go to sleep.

-Good night. -Sleep tight.

Good night.

This is so comfortable. We're a pair of logs.

-Yes. -We are logs.

It's really comfortable.

Yes, it's really comfortable.

Yes, it really, really is.

-Oh, my back... -Me, too...

I'm a log.

A log.

I'm a log.

A log.

You don't have feelings for him.

You're only uncomfortable.

Just uncomfortable.

I'm not a log.

I'm not a log.

I am a log.

I'm not a log!

I am a log.

I'm not a log.

I think it would be best if I sleep on the couch.

Good night.
