(Episode 8)

I felt bad after hearing Da Hee's story.

It really was a punch to the heart.

Why would I waste money on someone else?

I'd rather Da Hee pick up the paycheck instead.

- Ms. Choi... - Gosh, don't be like that.

It's just the two of us, so let's not be formal.

Okay. Fine, Yun Jeong.

Thank you for looking out for Da Hee,

but she won't be working here.

What? Why not?

I know we're friends, but we're also in-laws.

There's a certain wall between us.

And just like you said,

I'm also worried that bad luck will...

rub off her.

Hold on.

Did I say such a thing?

Yes, you did.

It was quite recent. Did you already forget that?

Well...

Oh, that?

I was only worried about you, you know.

Anyway, I'll let Da Hee know myself.

Consider that this never happened.

All right then.

Ok Boon!

Okay, fine. Let me be a little more generous then.

I'll give her a 20 percent raise.

My gosh! This trash can needs to be emptied.

Fine then!

Things are urgent for me too,

so please help me out.

So this isn't you being generous?

No, this is me pleading.

I really need the extra help.

You said you'll give her a 20 percent raise.

Yes.

How dare she try to play me?

Did you and Na Hee really get divorced?

When? How?

Isn't it obvious?

We signed the papers and submitted them.

It took less than five minutes.

I'm in shock.

This is the most shocking news I heard lately.

Your actions are more shocking, you know.

I can't believe you slept there.

Anyway, don't tell Mom or the people at the hospital.

Keep your mouth shut.

That's not the hard part.

But are you sure about this?

You got divorced in secret but are still living together.

Is this the Hollywood style?

I'm not sure if this is sophisticated or reckless.

We couldn't lose out on 100,000 dollars though.

Gyu Jin,

are you sure you won't regret this?

Na Hee is a great person.

This isn't because she's not great.

Two great people can marry...

but still have problems.

You either overcome them...

or call it quits.

Your sister-in-law and I...

I mean, your former sister-in-law. Well, we called it quits.

Former sister-in-law? Must you be that cruel?

This is why you shouldn't marry so quickly after falling in love.

Take your time and weigh your options.

Well, it's not my goal to marry.

Is that so? Why?

Managing my own life is hard enough.

I can't be responsible for someone else's too. It's scary.

To be honest, I'm scared that I'll change my mind...

like you and Na Hee.

Even if I live happily with my wife,

one of us will end up dying first.

The one left will wallow in sorrow.

Like Mom.

Marriage can only end in pain if you ask me.

That's what I believe.

You're not wrong.

Why didn't you tell me that before I got married?

Would you have listened?

You and Na Hee were head over heels for each other.

Gosh, thank you, sir.

Gyu Jin, are you all right?

Can you make it home by yourself?

Of course. I'm not drunk, you know. Who do you think I am? Na Hee?

Must you speak ill of her like that?

Head home then. Catch.

Jae Seok.

Na Hee.

Wait, should I not be so casual anymore?

It's hard for a third party to know about someone's marriage,

so it's not my place to say anything.

Still, I'm upset.

I really like the both of you, you know.

I'm sorry...

for making you witness this the second you came back to Korea.

I'd like nothing more than to ask what happened,

but I won't since I wouldn't understand anyway.

Can I still call you my sister-in-law though?

That won't change even though you get divorced.

It doesn't matter.

We need to keep up the act for the time being anyway.

Me being back in Korea is a secret...

and so is Gyu Jin getting a divorce.

We're the secret-harboring brothers.

I know and I'm sorry for playing a part in that.

When you said you were marrying Gyu Jin,

I promised to always be on your side.

My arm...

Something's wrong with my arm.

Why? Do you have a cramp?

Unlike others,

the blood in me isn't thicker than water.

I'll always be on your side.

Call me when you're lonely, when you need a friend,

or when you need someone to eat with.

I hear that you're an outcast at the hospital.

An outcast?

Didn't you know?

Everyone says that you only have Gyu Jin to eat with.

Me?

So you'll let Da Hee work at...

Gyu Jin's mother's cafe?

Why not?

She needs a part-time job anyway.

Besides, you love money, right? She offered a 20 percent raise.

Money isn't the issue here.

Wouldn't it be uncomfortable?

Whatever.

She seemed urgent,

so I doubt she'll be a menace to Da Hee.

Well, Da Hee isn't the type to do anything wrong.

Exactly.

My gosh.

Is it already that time of year?

Will you be going there tomorrow?

Of course.

Let me come with you this time.

It's okay. I'll just go there myself.

All right.

Leave the store to me...

and make sure to be careful.

I'll cook some food in the morning...

and pack some fruit for you.

(Song Young Suk)

(Song Young Suk)

Is that where he went early this morning?

Yes.

Then he won't be back until after sundown.

I wonder how long he's going to keep this up.

Probably until the day he dies.

I guess the pain won't go away easily.

He had to bury his sister in his heart.

It's a miracle that he met you and was able to settle down.

Gosh, but still...

He lived his whole life blaming himself.

It's about time he lets himself off the hook.

He can be too cruel on himself at times.

Don't you want some, Young Dal?

I already ate.

You can have it all.

Young Suk.

Don't you miss Mom?

Should I sing her song?

With my eyes closed, I walk

With my eyes open

My cousin in Cheongdo suggested it actually.

A family who owns an orchard needs someone to babysit and do chores.

I heard that age isn't an issue.

I'm talking about your sister.

Why don't you send her there?

How much can you earn polishing shoes anyway?

She'll only starve by your side.

If she works there,

she'll at least get enough meals.

They might even send her to school.

What do you say?

No, I won't go!

If you go there,

you can eat your favorite snack every day.

I don't want it.

I want to live with you instead.

Young Suk, look at me.

This isn't goodbye forever.

I'll earn enough money...

and come back for you.

I'll come to you before you see 100 full moons.

I promise.

Really?

Yes.

So stay strong and wait for me, okay?

Also,

don't you ever skip your meals.

Whatever food they give you, you will eat it deliciously.

Got it?

Here is Mom's handkerchief.

Whenever you want to see us,

you'll look at this instead.

Understood?

Promise you'll come back for me.

Of course.

No one lives there anymore.

The orchard went bankrupt. They took off half a year ago.

Sorry?

Creditors came by and smashed everything in there.

It was a nightmare.

Then what about the people who worked here?

There was a young housekeeper.

The young girl they hired as a babysitter...

who had a round face and puppy eyes?

Yes, that's her.

She died.

Was it last year?

She had a high fever.

I saw one of the workers...

carrying her body to bury her someplace.

I don't know where they buried her though.

You're still five...

while I'm over 60 now.

Young Suk.

I'm sorry.

I'm terribly sorry.

I really must be an outcast.

Why though?

What did I ever do to them?

- Are you leaving? - Yes.

- I guess I'll see you next year. - Of course.

Yes, Chi Su.

Young Dal, where are you?

I had an errand to run,

and now I'm on my way back. Why?

It's the day of the year when you're most miserable.

Don't give your wife a hard time and spend the day with me today.

I'll shut down my store.

That's not necessary.

Just listen to your friend.

I'll treat you to something special today.

It won't be just soju again.

There's a place I've had my eyes on.

But...

Unbelievable.

Mr. Shin, don't bother.

It's on me today.

I want to go out with her.

How much will that be?

- Me? - Yes.

Sir, we don't do second rounds.

Did you not see that at the entrance?

This isn't a place like that.

No, I didn't see it.

You're belittling me, aren't you?

Where's the hostess? Get the hostess!

The hostess is right here. How may I help you?

Are you the hostess?

Are you?

Yes, I'm the hostess here. What's the matter?

The thing is,

this cutie says she doesn't want to go out with me.

Sure. That's true, sir. We don't do second rounds.

I've been in the liquor business for 15 years...

with my own principles.

I never water down liquor.

I never overcharge customers.

And I never let my employees go out for second rounds.

You've got to be kidding me.

If you run your business like this,

you'll never get regulars.

Do you know who I am?

There are a lot of bars...

that ask me to come.

Is that so?

I'm sorry, but we still can't do that.

Darn it. You just don't seem to get it.

If you keep being like this...

- I said no. Just go. - What?

Gosh, I said it three times. You should get it by now.

I don't know who you are,

and I can make my living without regulars like you.

So go take your business somewhere else, okay?

You crazy wench. Do you have a death wish?

Shut your mouth.

It's my principle that I never skip a meal.

I just finished serving customers drinking in broad daylight.

I had to sing 14 songs without having a meal.

So I'm starving now. Do you know what it means?

What are you talking about, you lunatic?

It means you guys are dead meat. Do you understand?

Darn it.

I'm going to kill you.

My goodness.

I'm telling you.

He started throwing a tantrum, so she had no choice.

She didn't do anything wrong.

- It's okay. Stop it. - Cho Yeon.

You know I don't like to make excuses.

I'll pay if I did something wrong. Otherwise, I'll be released.

Let's go, guys.

- Cho Yeon. - Cho Yeon.

Wait. Gosh.

- Cho Yeon. - Cho Yeon!

Here's your Americano.

Do you want a carrier?

Yes, please.

I'm glad that I swallowed my pride and begged her.

Thank you. Please come again.

Bye.

Da Hee. Would you turn the volume up?

Yes, Ms. Choi.

I'm not feeling well.

I will go get a massage and have dinner.

Take good care of the store while I am away.

And wipe the frame over there.

Yes, ma'am.

She's nothing like her sister.

I wish they were mixed half and half.

I've missed this acrid fine dust.

One must have freedom, first and foremost.

(Jungang Police)

- Cho Yeon. - Cho Yeon.

- Cho Yeon. - Cho Yeon.

Cho Yeon!

- Cho Yeon. - Hey, guys.

Stop making a fuss. This is embarrassing.

Cho Yeon, here. I got you some tofu.

This is ridiculous. It's not like I was in jail.

Where's the sauce? It comes with a sauce.

What was I thinking?

Ga Yeon, you always make mistakes like this.

Pull yourself together? How could you forget it?

Stop it. I can eat it without sauce.

It's hard to open it.

It tastes so good.

So how did you reach a settlement with them?

Well... It's...

Ga Yeon closed her savings account.

We couldn't let you end up in jail.

To us, you are like a real sister and mom.

I'm not your sister or mom.

I'm not even married.

I'll pay you back within this month. Open up another savings account.

Okay. Just eat it.

Okay.

It tastes good.

Hey. You guys should go on ahead.

- I have a place to stop by. - Where are you going?

Don't even ask.

I'll just meet my boyfriend and get some money from him. Okay?

Here. See you.

Bye.

She's going there, right?

Isn't it obvious?

Dad!

Gosh, I'm exhausted.

What brings you here? You didn't even call.

I just came by because I missed you.

The trees have grown a lot.

Dad, what fertilizer do you use to make them grow so big?

It's like magic.

I use something else besides fertilizer.

It's my sincerity.

Dad, give me that.

- Okay. - Let me sweep.

Is your business going well?

Well...

There's a new talking bar next to my store.

Apparently, the barmaids there are young and slim.

I lost all my regulars to them.

I've given them a lot of free fruit over the years.

How disloyal they are.

Dad. I should probably lose some weight.

Like I always say, appearance doesn't matter.

Those who visit your bar are hungry for emotion,

not for bodies.

So you should try to fill the void in their hearts.

- It's... - The teachings of Buddha,

so I should work hard with pride?

My gosh.

What kind of father...

tells his daughter to work hard running a karaoke bar?

All occupations are equally honorable.

You should just live a life that you're not ashamed of.

So what's the matter?

I guess you're here because you have a lot on your mind.

Are you a mind-reader or what?

How did you know that I have a lot on my mind?

I've raised you since you were six.

In the small temple in Mount Daeun.

Gosh, I know that.

If it weren't for you, I would've already been long gone.

I was abandoned with a fever,

but you fed me herbal medicine for 10 days and saved my life.

And you took me in when I was a fool who didn't remember anything.

You even let me call you Dad.

That's why I can tell everything from your face.

So Cho Yeon is distracted with worries again.

Dad.

Monk.

Maybe I should quit running the bar.

Why? You said the work is cut out for you.

I just said that because I had nothing else to do...

as a woman without parents nor a decent education.

I'm just sick of dealing with drunk customers.

I want to live an ordinary life...

like normal women do.

I think it's time.

What time?

Time to move on.

Time to change your life.

Time to get closer to the truth.

Gosh. You're just saying things.

I'm just sick of living like this.

So what do you want to do to make a living now?

Dr. Song.

I'm sorry. My work ended late. Shall we begin now?

- Yes. - Yes.

First, we organized the list...

of patients under age 18 with pneumococcus as you asked.

Hang on. Didn't I ask Han Gi Yeong to do that?

Where is he, by the way? Is he late?

What? What's going on?

Well... Did you not hear that?

Gi Yeong transferred to Dr. Yoon's team.

What? Whose team?

I thought he told you.

Get data on antibiotic sensitivity with the samples on page 29.

- Shin Hye Jeong. - Yes?

Up to December of 2019...

What is it, Dr. Song?

Don't you see we're in a meeting?

I see that.

I also see one of my team members is here without telling me.

- Hey, Han Gi Yeong. - Yes?

What are you doing here?

Well, the thing is...

Han Gi Yeong.

Didn't you say you talked to Dr. Song?

Well...

I sent her an email...

which she hasn't read yet.

What? An email?

That's a notification, not a discussion.

Come with me. Let's chat.

Dr. Song.

We're in a meeting right now. Can you...

Stay out of it, Dr. Yoon.

Hey. Follow me.

Don't be like this, Dr. Song.

Calm down. I'll talk to him later...

Stay out of it, Yoon Gyu Jin!

Did you have to do that in front of our juniors?

You insulted me. Do you know that?

Should I do nothing when someone takes one of my team members...

a week before the conference?

I'll say it again. I didn't take him. He came to me.

All he did for you was research and data input in Excel sheets.

If that's all he had to do when there are younger residents,

how would he feel?

That's why all the juniors...

Treat me as an outcast?

I know. But what does that have to do with you taking Gi Yeong?

I didn't take him!

I thought he cleared it with you.

Is it over if he says it is?

You should've come to me.

You know my team is a member short without him.

I assumed you'd gotten someone else.

Really? Weren't you just trying to mess with me?

What do you think of me? Am I like you?

You're not.

You and I are fundamentally different.

I'm not as crafty as you.

You're always like this.

You say you didn't know...

and stay neutral without taking sides.

That is why I don't like you.

At work and between me and your mom.

You're always like that.

That's why I divorced you. Because you're crafty!

Anyone listening would think you split up with me!

He wanted to eat dinner and now he's not picking up?

Did he go home?

Why didn't you say so first?

I wanted to divorce you for a long time!

Honestly, these two...

They swore me to secrecy and now this?

Are they broadcasting they got divorced?

Yes, it's me.

It will be rush hour soon.

I'll have dinner with my son and come over in the evening.

Who cares?

What's wrong with you?

What crazy timing is this?

It'll be bad if Mom hears.

No, it's someone else.

- This friend is weak. - No.

Who cares? She'll kill me if she sees me here.

No, wait.

Don't act like you're the best in the world.

No. I must live.

Okay. See you later.

Mom!

What...

Are you Jae Seok?

What on earth...

Why are you in a white gown?

Mom. I'm sorry.

I love you!

You fool.

What happened?

Come here!

Come here!

Stop right there!

I got you.

You little rat.

You're calling a son you haven't seen in a while a rat?

Isn't this too lavish a welcome?

What?

Mother. How have you been?

How do you think I am now that I saw you here?

That hurt.

You must be really healthy. Your punches are more painful.

Are you on something? Ginseng?

Ginseng? You idiot.

Don't try to talk your way out.

What happened? Why are you here?

What's this white gown?

Why ask? Can't you put 2 and 2 together?

I'm back and I work here,

and you found out. The end.

Isn't that simple?

What?

You scumbag. You jerk.

Come here.

Let's talk at home. Come with me!

- Mom, wait. - Come with me!

- Walk! - Wait.

Can I at least change first?

I'll talk to Gi Yeong about this situation.

He won't talk to you. He's too scared right now.

Forget it. What good is such a timid kid?

You keep him.

Okay. It would look bad to send him back.

That's why you should treat your juniors better.

Honestly, you...

(Mother)

- Mom. - Yoon Gyu Jin!

What's wrong with you?

Why? What is it, Mom?

"What is it, Mom?"

You knew Jae Seok was back?

And you didn't tell me?

When you work at the same hospital?

You and your wife! Come over right now.

- Even if the skies fall, okay? - Mom, we...

- I'll come alone. Na Hee... - Bring her too!

Mom knows Jae Seok is back.

She wants to see us.

Leave me out.

I have no reason to go there.

I can't do that.

You're the one who wants to keep us a secret.

You should cooperate to keep our cover.

Don't you remember Clause seven of our contract?

That hurts, Mom. Mom.

That really hurts. Grab the other ear.

The other ear, please.

Just let go. I won't run away.

How can I trust you when you lied about being in Turkey?

Come in!

Okay, Mom, okay.

Mom. Mom.

Stop glaring. You're scaring me.

Tell the truth.

When did you come back, you brat?

Do you have to curse?

Not long ago.

I want a date. When did you return?

What time on what day?

Saturday. Last Saturday.

Last Saturday.

That was a week ago. It's been a week.

And you started work without telling me, you ungrateful brat?

"Ungrateful"?

You have no idea what a noble sacrifice I'm making.

I deserve a Nobel Peace Prize.

What are you talking about?

- You scumbag. - Mom.

- Mom, talk it out. - You idiot.

Don't resort to violence.

That could become a habit!

- How dare you? - Mom.

- What? - What?

You...

What?

You...

You...

Mom, we're here.

Mother, we're...

What?

Da Hee.

Why are you here?

Na Hee.

You!

What?

(Once Again)

What on earth did I tell my brother-in-law's brother?

That really was not me.

I didn't say it was just us. I said we had drinks.

What?

Do you think you'll never need to ask me for a favor?

I wasn't blessed with a good husband or great kids,

but I was blessed with a great son-in-law.

What, what? What is it?

- For real? - For real?

I'm going to quit and do something else.

Something ordinary.
