Episode 26

Drive safely.

Would you please remember that I was your lover at some point?

Maybe I asked for too much.

I'll remember...

...that I felt sad for a man

who talked about the nature of a scorpion.

You shouldn't have said that.

Don't say such a thing to a guy like me.

I guess I fell into my own trap.

I wanted to get you to admit that your love isn't that strong.

But I'm the one who's falling apart.

This'll all be over soon.

Our show, that is.

That's why we spent today as if it were our last.

Fortunately, tomorrow's not our show's last day.

I can live tomorrow the same way.

Go on in. Good night.

Good night.

You're late.

Yes. You weren't sleeping?

I woke up.

Don't work very late.

Okay. Good night.

I have something to say.

From what I've heard, this guy's not bad.

He studies physics, and he has good background.

Mother.

I don't plan on getting married.

Give it some thought, Dan-ah.

I just can't. I've been married once.

So what? It wasn't a real marriage.

They won't have a problem with it.

But I do.

I feel sorry for him. I can't forget him.

Dan-ah.

I think I understand you just a little.

You came to cook me seaweed soup for your sibling

even when you thought I'd had an abortion.

So I know you're sentimental.

But you shouldn't live like this.

He wouldn't want this either.

But this is what I want.

This is the only thing I can do for him.

Where'd you go?

I had a talk with Dan-ah.

Did she refuse?

Love can be a scary thing.

I should know since I've dated some.

It's not like you didn't know.

Our baby's listening.

Forget what Mommy said.

After watching Dan-ah,

I feel like I haven't really loved anyone sincerely.

Dan-ah's unchanging devotion makes me wonder

if that's what love is.

To her, love is loyalty.

She can't let go because she wants to stay loyal.

But I won't give up.

I'll make sure she marries someone nice,

and lives happily with her children.

Thank you, Young-in.

Although I'm her father,

I've given up on trying to persuade Dan-ah.

This family's selfish to have left her like that for ten years.

Just watch.

I'll make sure Dan-ah finds a great guy.

Don't get so excited or you'll snore and grind your teeth again.

But I don't snore!

And you fart in your sleep.

Why are you so late?

I had work to do.

Hye-joo just came home too.

Is that right? Why so late?

Were you waiting for us to come home?

Hurry up and come in!

I don't want to play anymore.

You can't pull out now!

Come.

Sit down.

Deal.

You were playing Go-stop?

I'm sleepy.

You don't mind losing golf-bets.

So why does this bother you?

You know I hate losing!

You don't have to win against me.

Why do you think Gang-suk hates to lose?

Because he takes after me.

Win at all costs.

Thanks. Get some rest.

Hurry up and deal!

What?

Right...

I heard you came home late.

Did you have to work a night shift?

- Gang-suk. - Yes?

Buy me a car, please.

What's up?

Would you please?

Of course I would. Whatever you want.

I'm glad you asked.

I'm home now. What are you doing?

I'm reading.

These kind of things are silly, but they're fun.

Hello?

This isn't enough. Let's try something else.

Sorry?

How about talking on the phone until we fall asleep?

You don't want to? Say something.

You're so demanding.

Better than a boring guy, right?

Yes.

Good answer.

Let's move on.

Although we were just together, you miss me already, don't you?

Isn't that what people usually say?

Say yes.

Yes.

Gang-suk...

I'll call you later.

I'm really tired now. Please stop your father.

Why'd you bring Gang-suk?

I'm really sleepy, honey.

Give Mother a break, Father.

She picked a fight with the wrong person.

Anyway, join the game.

Go-stop is best with three people.

Father.

Hurry up and sit.

I already called one-go.

Your turn.

You threw that down, so you'll pay for this round.

Are you serious?

Just go up to your room.

I'll save you from this misery.

It sounded like you were on the phone

discussing important matters.

Nonsense!

Just go.

Thank you.

Pay for this round!

Are you sleeping?

I was about to.

How could you sleep when I said I'd call back?

But I waited an hour.

Is that my limit?

I guess that's enough for today.

Good night.

I won't ask you to dream about me.

So dream nothing and sleep well.

Good night.

I know I'm bad.

But please forgive me.

I just want to go a little farther.

I know I'm being selfish.

But I'll make every day feel like my last with her.

Mother, this is unfair.

What is?

Making men do chores on a holiday.

I don't think it's unfair at all.

I already said you men had it too easy.

Housework should be divided, don't you think?

Let's just do it.

You're taking her side too much.

Do we just do chores?

And wash the bed sheets too.

What about the women?

We'll be enjoying our break.

Good for you, Grandma.

I think having them do the bed sheets is too much.

Just leave it to me.

I feel bad.

Jo-man and I are the housekeepers.

I don't feel right letting the hardworking men

do chores on a holiday...

Listen to the head housewife.

You're going somewhere?

I'm going to visit the Pyeongchon elder.

I'll drive you, Grandfather.

I called Chauffer Lee, so just do your work.

Don't you get sneaky with us!

I wasn't trying to.

Can I come with you?

Don't be sneaky.

What's that, Grandma?

It's an air purifier.

In winter, the air inside the house gets stale.

If you don't feel good,

then you can't study as hard as you want to.

It's not like I get good grades anyway.

Would you look at that?

It turned red when you farted.

I guess it detects the subtle changes in the air.

Dear son.

Yes?

Are you kidding me?

What'd I do?

You're not trying.

Keep that up, and I'll make you learn a hard lesson.

What do you mean?

I'll make you prepare lunch.

- Father. - What?

Mother is abusing me.

I'm working, so stop bothering me.

Do you want to prepare lunch alone?

Director Tae-young. There's dust in here.

Poor Tae-young's done for!

I don't feel right about this.

Young-in's trying to lay down the law.

Just relax.

I can't relax when the men are doing the chores.

Hello?

Let's make use of the time we have left.

Not today.

Are you home?

Yes.

You're not at the museum?

I take it your family's home since it's a holiday,

so I'll pick you up at the main intersection

a few blocks down from your place.

I'll call you when I'm almost there.

You have to go to school?

Yes.

Go, and don't worry about your brothers.

Get out. I'm cleaning this room.

Stop that!

I warned you! It's not my fault!

Geez!

I'm on a roll!

They're still playing?

Yes. Please go save your mother.

How many hours has it been?

I don't know.

I can't even see anything now.

Wait.

Gwangbak, Pibak, and Mungdda.

Three-go!

Can you please win so I can sleep?

You still haven't won?

But I'll win this round for sure.

What's taking so long?

I crapped three times.

What the heck!

I take it back. Make that twice.

Don't lie to me. You crapped three times.

Just let it go.

You're stepping all over my pride.

Deal again.

Gang-suk, please save me! I'm dying!

Father, take a break.

Mother might pass out any moment.

I just got started. Hurry up and deal.

Don't step on it too hard!

Let me get the stain out!

Stop splashing us.

I blame you for everything, Father.

I'm sorry.

Don't bully my husband.

I'll just shut up.

Mother.

Yes?

I think they're clean now.

They are. You may go rinse them.

I passed.

I see your true colors now.

- Elder son. - Yes?

For your hard work,

I'll give you a 10 minute break.

Thank you.

You're a suck-up.

See you in 10 minutes.

I said I'd call you.

Why are you waiting out here?

Isn't that what lovers do?

Do you want a giant diamond ring?

Sorry?

Men want to reward obedient girlfriends.

Well...

Since I missed a lesson yesterday,

how about if I make it up today?

My mother can't make it.

Is she busy?

She's been playing Go-stop over 20 hours with my father.

Sorry?

She might be hospitalized today.

Go-stop for over 20 hours?

Why do you think I was obsessed with winning Slap?

I take after my father. We just hate to lose.

What are you doing?

10 minutes are up.

Yes.

I'm washing the sheets.

I'll run away after I complete my mission.

Diarrhea again?

Like a waterfall.

Why'd you drink so much?

I didn't want to, but my friend...

Sorry?

Forget it.

Hey, Min-tae.

It's me.

Are you serious? That's terrible.

I'll be right there.

It's me!

Thanks to you, I'm dying.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Okay, I'll be there soon.

What's going on?

Min-tae's father passed away.

What happened?

He had an illness. I have to go, Father.

Go ahead.

Mother, I'd love to finish the laundry, but I have to go.

It can't be helped. You may go.

Yes, Mother.

Keep it up, Dong-dong.

Finish up.

I'm going to rest. My legs are sore from standing.

Get some rest.

What?

Min-tae's father passed away a few years ago.

You and I attended his service.

Grandma! Dad lied...

Hush now.

That brat...

You saved me just in time!

Thanks for giving me endless diarrhea.

How ladylike.

It's not as if you see me as a woman.

Don't be like that with other men.

Anything you want to eat?

My stomach's upset.

You spilled out everything, so let's fill up again.

What's with the smile?

Looking at you made me hungry.

It's funny. I wasn't hungry earlier.

Maybe...

What?

Your desires get aroused when you see me.

What?

You get hungry when you see me.

In other words, I arouse your primal desires.

Do you want to die?

Did you really wash the bed sheets?

Yes.

My mother's just like you.

She wants to try things she hasn't tried before.

Your life isn't easy either.

You said it.

I...

...might have housewife's eczema.

I can be funny, right?

You're getting good.

I'm copying someone.

Sorry?

My brother was fussing about having housewife's eczema,

so I thought I'd try it on you.

What?

So you think about me sometimes?

I told you that you'd find out.

Let's watch a movie, eat lunch, and go to the karaoke.

Why are we going to the karaoke?

Why wouldn't we?

I met my goal.

When?

At your friends' party.

I thought I was finished with singing.

You won because you were funny.

I don't want to sing.

Then what do you want to do?

Nothing much.

You...

Don't forget we have to try everything.

Be sincere.

But I was being sincere.

What?

You hurt my pride.

The way you talk makes it seem like I dragged you along

when you didn't want to come out.

I'm sorry.

If you apologize, then I can't even say anything.

I wanted to come out, but...

What?

I'm just not comfortable.

Am I that burdensome to you?

No, I meant I'm not comfortable trying new things.

I've never thought of doing this,

so I don't really know what to do.

That's why I can't live up to your expectations,

even if I try to.

But are you trying?

It's not right if you have to try so hard.

The movie's about to start.

Thank you...

...for giving me times like this,

times I've never dreamed of.

You're still groggy?

Just how much did you drink?

Can you please leave me alone?

Don't you have to look for a place?

Aren't your parents leaving next week?

You need to hurry up.

I'll just sleep on the street if I don't find a place.

Just go.

Love made a bum out of our friend.

Why are you here?

You don't have a shift today.

I brought this for your hangover.

Don't throw that on glass.

Thank you...

...for not throwing it.

I brought another bottle just in case.

Why would you do this?

I yell at you every day. I pick on you.

I'm crazy about another girl.

I don't consider you at all.

So why would you do this?

I shouldn't say this, but...

What?

I said I'd try to go back to the way I was before I liked you.

Right.

But I just can't do it.

You suffer from heartache, get drunk on a nightly basis,

and sleep on the street,

so I just want to do something for you.

You're so silly.

At least I try to win her over,

and ramble when I'm drunk.

Doesn't it bother you that you're the way you are?

Yes.

I've wondered why I'm like this.

But that day,

when I saw you smiling under that cherry tree,

I felt happy for the first time in my life.

I saw a guy smiling so brightly

under the warm sunlight of spring.

You can treat me anyway you want.

You don't have to worry about my feelings.

You gave me a moment of happiness,

so you can treat me however you want.

Get some rest.

I'll take care of the customers.

I would've done the same if I were your brother,

for a sister like you.

Let's eat now.

How about the place we went to last time?

Can we go to a different place?

Is this what you wanted to eat?

This is too ordinary.

I'm supposed to do what I want.

I know, but is this it? Eating udon and kimbap?

Back in high school, I saw my friends eating

at places like this with their boyfriends.

I wanted to try it too.

If I were eating with him,

my friends would ask me who he was.

Then I'd get too embarrassed to answer.

So why didn't you?

It doesn't sound too difficult.

I kept putting it off until I graduated.

You must've been proud of him.

Considering your personality,

if you wanted to show him off, then he must've been great.

He'd be a decent looking guy

since he resembles Jeong Hyun-gyu,

not to mention he was romantic enough to wait around for you.

I can see why you'd be proud of him.

He sounds like a guy most girls that age would consider dreamy.

What a shame.

He couldn't make it to the exhibition you mentioned.

No, I only realized that day, that I had feelings for him.

Life is unfair.

Sounds like you have good memories of high school.

But I had to fight jerks

who made fun of my family's background

just because my father donated a piano to my school.

Are you giving me a look of sympathy?

I'm trying to imagine how you were after a fight.

Isn't it obvious?

I just wiped off my bloody face,

then swore to beat them up more the next day.

Had you ever gone to a snack shop like this

when you were in school?

Your noodles are getting soggy.

My grandmother made some medicine for Joo-jeong.

Is she home?

She's not home.

Did she go somewhere?

She said she was meeting someone.

Thank you so much.

I feel bad, your family probably sent this

because they think Joo-jeong's your future wife.

This medicine's supposed to help a lady give birth easily.

They must be anxious for a grandchild.

Do you know whom Joo-jeong went out to meet?

You weren't a drinker back then.

I'm a drunkard now.

I ruined your life.

No, I just like drinking.

My life hasn't been easy since I left you.

Did you get married?

I had some opportunities, but they didn't work out.

How about you?

I was busy drinking.

I didn't want to miss you,

so I went to the Philippines and then to the United States.

But life wasn't easy there.

Just when I'd worked hard enough to own my store,

it was burglarized by armed robbers.

Then just when I started to bounce back,

there was the L. A riot.

What do you do now?

I'm a taxi-driver.

Why'd you waste your money coming to Korea?

Why else would an orphan like me come back?

I got robbed again recently.

I wasn't fatally wounded,

but it made me reflect on my pathetic life.

I just wanted to come see you since I have nothing to lose.

And what good does that do?

I didn't want to have any regrets.

How about a steak?

Ha Tae-young.

I love you.

You're the best friend I could ever hope for.

I really love you.

Snap out of it.

You're so easily enticed with food.

Tae-young!

Tae-young!

Hey.

Why didn't you call me after that time at the police station?

I was so scared then.

I thought we were going to jail.

Did your grandfather's funeral go well?

I guess so.

You're so mean, Tae-young.

You know your friend,

the guy who owns the electronics store?

Right.

He told me you got a divorce.

Aren't you busy?

Not when I'm talking to you.

I called you so many times after I heard about your divorce.

But you ignored my calls.

It's not like we have anything to talk about.

Tae-young.

I'm busy.

Who's that?

My friend.

Your friend?

You can't be friends with a woman.

I have to go.

Your standards dropped quite a bit.

I'm going.

I'll call you, Tae-young.

I have to change my number too.

Why aren't you eating? It's an expensive steak.

My stomach's upset.

You said you were feeling better.

Not anymore.

That girl earlier.

She's nobody.

Otherwise, I would've gone for her after my divorce.

It's so convenient for men.

You can just do things like that with no strings attached.

Fine, I'm a dog in heat.

Why are you telling me that?

I don't know why I care about what you think.

I'm embarrassed that I ran into her.

Forget it.

My life is just like that. I have the worst of luck.

I wanted to treat you to good food at a nice restaurant,

but I had to run into a girl I met when I was messing around.

How about now?

What?

You lived like that before, so how about now?

From our birth, my brother and I...

You met him at the police station.

Right.

We're twins born 10 minutes apart.

But we're completely different.

This is what I heard countless times when I was growing up.

Just be half the person your brother is.

I tried my best,

but I just couldn't live up to him.

I was a troublemaker because I was always feeling inferior.

Then I met my wife.

She made me feel like I could depend on her.

I thought I could do anything and get away with it.

So I did a lot of stupid things I shouldn't have.

And that's why I embarrassed myself in front of you earlier.

Forget what I said. That was an excuse.

I just lived like that to spite my brother.

You still haven't answered me.

I asked how your life is now.

I don't have the energy to live like that anymore.

And it's not like anyone will care if I did that again.

Don't ever get married.

But you already did that.

You might go back to your old ways if you find someone.

So just don't get married.

I was going to do that anyway.

I made up my mind to stay single for the rest of my life.

I'll still be your friend.

You'll be lonely if you live alone.

Then you need a friend.

What about you?

What about me?

You're going to live alone?

Having me as a friend won't sit well with your hubby.

Then I guess I'll live alone.

Sure.

I heard you flirted with that police officer.

That's a dead giveaway for a desperate woman.

You're jealous.

No way.

Jang-gi thinks you're jealous.

Live until I see you as a woman.

By then you'll be the oldest grandma in history.

I can sit in the front from now on?

Yes.

I won't be talking to the back of your head anymore.

I'll hear your stomach growl even louder now.

Where are we going?

There's someplace I want to go.

Where?

It was a small orphanage.

It disappeared about three years ago.

I came to visit a helper that I wanted to meet,

but the orphanage was gone.

Why did you want to come here?

It's where you grew up.

I wanted to visit the place you grew up in.

Mister.

Now I know why I met you at the police station that night,

and why I felt bitter for giving my heart to someone

I shouldn't have.

It was all because I hadn't met the right person back then.

And I'm glad that person is you.

I can't promise you anything else,

but I promise you're the last woman I'll hold hands with.

By the way...

Are you going on the arranged meeting?

Your stepmother set you up, right?

How did you know that?

I guess she did.

It doesn't matter how I know.

Just answer my question.

If you do, you're so dead.

Now, that's how you react to your significant other's

arranged meeting.

That wasn't necessary. I'm not going.

I know.

Being the immovable person you are,

you wouldn't do such a thing.

I just wanted to say that.

Meet someone else and die.

I didn't expect there were so many things you wanted to try.

Expect the unexpected.

You're obedient.

Although it's hot in here, you're still wearing that scarf.

Because it was a promise.

You keep all your promises?

I guess that's why you can't forget that guy.

Let's get out, and try something new.

Are you trying to send me to the Olympics?

Win gold.

Stop by the supermarket.

Why?

I'm out of coffee.

Trying to bring me into your house again?

Shut up.

Why are you buying coffee out of the blue?

Isn't it because you want to serve me coffee at your place?

With poison, maybe.

You're dating even on a Sunday?

Date...

Perfect harmony.

Dad!

Dong-dong, what are you doing here?

I ran out of batteries.

The supermarket by our house is all out.

Is that right?

She's my friend.

This is my son.

What a cute looking son.

Guys and girls can't be friends.

Sure they can.

But you said they couldn't be friends.

That's what I thought,

but she's really just a friend of mine.

Are you cheating again?

Brat...

Say hello.

You're not cheating again?

I'm not. Say hello.

Hello.

Hey.

I have to take him home.

Okay, go on.

Is your name Dong-dong?

Yes, it's Ha Dong-dong.

You have a cute name. See you again.

Goodbye.

Seatbelt.

You're really not cheating?

I'm not.

He even has a son.

You shouldn't consider him.

Even his son talks about his cheating...

Wait, that means he has a wife.

Can you sell the land that's under my name?

Are you using it as collateral?

You can still sell it, right?

We didn't put it up as collateral.

Then please set a price and sell it.

Or you can just give me the deed.

What's this about?

I need to sell the property.

It doesn't have great value,

but Father left it in your name for your good.

So I'll sell it.

Tell me why.

I'm over 40.

Aren't I old enough to handle my own matters?

That land is more than what it is.

It's proof of how much Father loved you.

That land is very fertile and yields a substantial harvest.

It's just a piece of land.

Joo-jeong.

Please sell it for me, Brother.

Tell me why you want to sell it.

Please just sell it.

What's going on?

You don't like eavesdropping.

I meant to bring in some tea, and I overheard you.

Just forget what you heard.

It's not like Joo-jeong to ask for money.

I already took a bath. I want to go play games.

- Dong-dong. - Yes?

My son Dong-dong.

What?

Don't live like your dad.

I don't plan to.

You've grown a lot.

- Dong-dong. - What now?

I'll live alone with you. I won't cheat again.

Mom said it's not cheating because you're divorced.

It's okay if you date.

I won't date either. It'll be just the two of us.

That's not true. We have a big family.

You're right. It's not just us two.

I'll just live with my family.

Okay. Let's hurry up and leave.

You even had a son, Ha Tae-young.

Why did you live like that?

How were you going to raise him on your own?

So this is what it feels like to watch the sunset

with a significant other.

I never really cared for the sunrise or the sunset.

The sun came up in the morning and set at night.

I thought people were lame for watching them.

What a waste of their time.

But I can see why they'd do it now.

Sometimes, I looked at the sunset and felt relieved

because I knew another day had passed.

Why aren't you crying?

You look like you're going to cry when you talk about him,

but you never do.

Have you shed all your tears for him already?

I couldn't cry.

I woke up a month after he passed away.

I was too shocked to cry when I heard the news at first.

Then when I came to realize that he was really dead,

I couldn't cry.

The day my great-grandfather passed away

and I asked you for your plane ticket,

I couldn't catch the plane, and ran all over the port.

I was running around in the rain, but I didn't feel cold.

Then I got a phone call that he had passed away,

and started crying.

I thanked my grandfather for giving me a chance to cry.

I'll cry all the tears for that guy

I couldn't before, Grandfather.

Do you know why I kept your picture?

I saw you crying at the funeral, and wondered if

Great-grandfather's death was that deplorable.

I felt that you were my polar opposite.

Then I saw you in your old picture.

You were smiling brightly in that picture.

Is this cheerful girl the same woman

who was crying her heart out?

That strange thought made me keep the picture.

The sun goes down very fast.

It's already nighttime.

I might look at the sunset from now on.

And I'll look back at the times when I sat

and watched the sunset with a certain woman.

Let's get something else.

They don't have strawberry ice cream here.

I'm sorry, kid.

Let's just get something else.

The store across the street might have them.

Sorry. Let's go, honey.

Why's she such a brat?

We're too lenient on her.

We're going, so stop crying.

What a crybaby.

What's wrong?

What's wrong?

Go in.

Mister.

In my next life,

I hope to be the same age as you.

Good night.

There's something I want to do. Would you let me?

As long as it's not swimming in the river.

It's not.

Can you watch the sunrise with me?

I want to spend the night talking,

and then watch the sun come up.

It's me, Grandma.

I won't come home tonight. I have a lot of work.

Don't worry about me.

Why are you so lenient with me?

Because you're my lover who's living every day as his last.

I don't see you as a man. I just can't.

He won't risk everything for a woman.

But I risked everything for you.

Nothing good will come from stalling.

It seems like you two have something going on.

Please believe me.

We really aren't anything.

How do you feel about her?

Thank you.

Give me a kiss after work as a sign of gratitude.

Your son's cute.

Why isn't his mother raising him?

Do you meet her often?

Maybe our show didn't help them at all.

Take him and leave.

We're still lovers, aren't we?

Eat the most delicious meal you want.

Is today our last?
