East of Eden

Episode 2

From now on, I will live...

to destroy Shin Tae Hwan's life and tear his heart into a thousand and million pieces!

Disappear!

- Even if I disappeared, don't you dare rest at ease. - Forget all this.

Don't you even forget! Just wait! You are to wait for it even if you are to die!

Even if you're dead, I'll dig you up from the grave!

Cut off your head and take my revenge!

Sir, you're not allowed to be in here.

My...

My child, where is he?

Right where he's supposed to be.

My child... I'd like him to be moved to the ward instead.

Sir!

Wow! This is great!

Here.

I'm leaving the child here, you folks take care of him. Does that make any sense?

Is there anyone who'll not pay for their hospital bill?

Here, right here.

I told you the name of Tae Sung Coal Mine's Union Head, Lee Ki Chul.

But you're still talking nonsense.

If you don't have money, you should have given birth at home.

Why give birth at the hospital and be so unreasonable?

You think I like doing this?

This is the life of coal miners.

I'll pay up once we earn the money, meanwhile you look after the baby.

Episode 2

I heard they're moving to a big hospital in Seoul.

That's for sure. He's the successor of the Director, you know.

For some folks, they ride in airplanes from birth.

For other folks, they incur a hospital debt at birth.

Go take a look at your mother.

I can see my brother too, right?

Of course.

Why be so shocked? Is Lee Ki Chul in there sleeping?

Baby!

You should have stayed at the hospital for another two days.

Where to find the money to stay two more days?

You don't even have the money to pay for your discharge.

I put it on credit.

To owe a hospital bill, I must be the only such person here on earth.

All because I met a good husband.

It's warm inside, go on in.

Let me take him.

Yes, baby.

Let's go in.

On my way back here, I drank a bowl of wine.

A lady in confinement drinking wine, how are you going to breast-feed the baby?

The hospital was too expensive so she carried the baby and walked all the way back here.

Maybe she thinks it'll be warmer here.

No, don't.

Don't wake them up.

This is too sad.

I'm not a wicked woman.

But many others are hurt because of me.

To Dong Chul's mom, I'm a wicked person.

So long as I'm happy myself,

It never occurred to me that I'm hurting others.

Now,

It's time that I left.

When you suddenly don't see me one day, you'll know that I've left.

When I came, I didn't get your approval.

So when I leave, I don't need it too.

Yes.

You're right.

Do as you wish.

To tell the truth, if I could take Dong Chul with me,

If only I have him, who looks exactly like you,

Then I won't die and I think I can keep living on.

Dong Chul's mom,

She's really a good person.

I know that.

Mad woman.

The hurt I've caused her, you help to heal her wound.

Mad woman.

Mad woman.

Over there.

Lee Ki Chul,

This fella is finally going to ignite the explosives storehouse.

This is maddening.

Living with a bad man like Lee Ki Chul, my heart has become wider than the ocean.

My heart's broken to pieces, my internal organs are all rotten and my chest has become the ocean.

He's stuffed to death.

Stop feeding him, eat for yourself.

Aigoo,

Even if you didn't do this, I'd let Dong Chul stay with you tonight.

- Hey! - What hey!

Everyday, it's either fights or strikes, you're never thinking for yourself.

This kind of life, being a leader is just in vain.

You should make some consideration for yourself.

Aigoo.

Even more pitiful than Lee Ki Chul, that's you.

In view of education, covering up a child's ear is good.

But your life, what's left of it?

Having found your beloved Lee Ki Chul,

Other than being the wife of the coal village's Union Head, what else is there?

Are you going to the hostel?

Yes.

Since you're going to do it, then do it well.

Then the workers will have the fighting spirit too.

Oh, you just came back.

Your wife said something urgent came up so she took the last train out.

She left and the kids' aunt is in the room.

She said the dinner has to be good and paid me a big sum for it.

She said she owed the kids' aunt too much.

I've told you many times, you had nothing to do with my brother's death.

Just as it was reported, it's because my brother was not mentally sound.

But why do you have to hold it to heart?

Bearing the burden all on yourself, does that feel good?

Living here on the brink of death daily, did you think I'd forget you?

Yes.

I will forget.

I've forgotten it.

I barely settled down to life here, why did you have to show up and make me upset again?

Let's leave together.

I'll leave too, leave this place...

I beg you.

Stop worrying about my life, you go your own way.

Stop wasting your life.

Might as well...

Might as well kill me then.

I don't even have the strength to die, that's why I came looking for you.

Let me die.

Might as well let me die.

As expected, if our mine goes on strike tomorrow, it will be a nation-wide strike.

How are things exactly?

They're preparing to blast it now.

Nonsense!

At this time, they're still preparing only?

Lee Ki Chul, this fella needs to be shown something stronger.

Go and check it out. Can we blast accurately to bind him in?

The technicians are very afraid. They say this could cost him his life and it's dangerous.

It's because a nation-wide mine strike will threaten Tae Sung's very existence!

With this huge amount...

If the blast blocks the tunnel for a few days, we're lucky but...

Just in case... Just in case,

Once you're done with the blasting, you're out of here.

With all that cash.

And...

Never appear back here again.

You understand?

This is the Director's order.

Lee Dong Chul.

Yes?

When I'm not around,

Hyung* Dong Chul must take care of your brother Dong Wook.

Yes.

Like who?

Like you, Dad.

Yes,

Like me.

Like how I'd do so.

If... if...

If I'm not around, Lee Dong Chul will be Lee Dong Wook's father,

Understand?

Yes.

Make a deal?

It's a deal.

Here, make a deal with your younger brother, Dong Wook.

Aigoo, all this pig trotters, aigoo!

If this is sold at the market, how much would this make?

You're always making me work without any reward in return. Selling this whenever the market is open,

Drying the seafood in the sun then selling it at the market,

If I didn't do this, we would have starved to death.

The soup's all over the floor!

Aigoo! Today is brother-in-law's birthday, get him a cake from the market.

Cake?

A cake for you!

Hey, brother-in-law!

Go look at that restaurant.

Did your first love commit suicide?

The 'closed' sign is up and there's no sign of her.

She might as well be dead.

What?

I produced the ambience for them but they're just staring at each other.

Aigoo! Life is just like pig trotters, love is only said with words.

Aigoo! That woman can only live on her pension then.

Dong Chul, why are you out here again?

I want to make a present for Dad's birthday.

Birthday present, what nonsense?

I want to make Dad a flower garland and a medal.

Aigoo!

What?

Your birthday present for me, that beef soup was very delicious.

Money! Money! If only you made some money!

You won't just get beef soup, I'll make you something delicious everyday!

Thank you, my wife.

'Thank you, my wife'?

Why did that idiot suddenly say something like this?

Dong Chul's dad!

Come back early.

When I'm done selling the pig trotters, I may get you a birthday cake.

Don't let Dong Chul stay at her place, that's tough on her too.

Today I'll wait for Dad at a secret place.

Come on quickly.

Hurry!

Let's go quickly.

Hurry!

Quickly!

Someone who gives his life without regret

If you call for me, wherever you are, I'll run to you

A person like that is right here

Even when my heart hurts, this is enough

I give you my heart, without you, I'll be in more pain

Promise me one thing, if you're just like me,

I'd be willing to die for you.

Oh, this is tough for you.

No, it's not.

But some pig trotters.

It's cheap, Ahjussi.

Replacing apologetic words with words of thanks

You're the only one who'll accept happily when I have only tears to offer

I want to live for you

Even when my heart hurts, this is enough,

I give you my heart, without you, I'll be in more pain

My only wish is for you to be happy

Let me have this one.

Sitting where there is no sadness

Isn't that the station master's daughter?

Welcome!

Aigoo! The elegant lady is here.

Aigoo! Why can't you forget somebody else's man?

So how? You plan to cut your hair short and leave this place?

Eden Beauty Salon, who made this name?

How would I know?

Maybe the previous owner.

Something about the kingdom that everyone desires is Eden.

But there are so few customers, I think this name is unlucky.

Shall I cut it short?

Dad?

This is the place, sir.

They're so close by planning the strike, what were you guys doing?

These damned fellas.

There must be some clues left here, start searching!

Yes.

Sir!

February 26th.

Tomorrow. It's tomorrow.

This matches the inside information I got. Do you see that?

Yes.

Lee Ki Chul, bury him immediately.

Strand him there for a week then he'll know who's the real owner here.

There's no time, let's go.

That blasting technician, Jung Hung Tae, is he all ready?

Dad!

Dad, don't die!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Don't die, dad!

Dad,

Don't die!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Don't die!

Dad!

There's trouble, sir!

It could become a major incident.

Sir!

Did you kill someone?

You leave this place as soon as you can.

As agreed, you should lock up your mouth the rest of your life.

What?

Yes.

If you should break this deal,

You, Jung Hung Tae, will be a murderer.

Understand?

Yes.

Assistant Director,

Yes, sir?

This is not the first time for such incidents at the mine,

What kind of emergency team have we sent?

Three tunnel trolleys.

Add two more.

Before external teams get here, I'll join in the rescue too.

What?

Something happened at the mine!

What?

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Save my dad!

Save my dad!

Save my dad!

Save my dad!

Dong Chul!

Dad!

Ahjumma! Aunt! My dad is in there.

Save my dad!

My dad is in there!

Dad!

Dad!

Dong Chul's mom, did you hear the news?

What news, station master?

Is it about your daughter going to the gynaecologist with a huge tummy?

An unmarried virgin, when did she get a baby?

Dong Chul's mom...

Hey, I know, don't worry.

No matter what I hear, I'll keep my mouth shut.

Dong Chul's mom.

An accident happened at the mine.

Is that so?

Aigoo! I wonder who'll be happy now?

They'll get paid pension, they'll be so happy!

I wonder who, they must be happy!

The tunnel collapsed, it's all blocked up.

Hasn't there been accidents where tunnels get blocked up?

It's a blasting accident.

It's normal for blasting accidents to happen too.

Dong Chul's dad, something happened to him too.

Whether dead or alive,

You'd better go take a look at the mine.

It's all over the news broadcast already, calling for the Union Head's wife.

The Union Head's wife is here.

My husband, Lee Ki Chul, what happened to him?

Why isn't anyone answering me?

Why don't I see the person-in-charge here?

Get the Director here.

Get the Director here!

The tunnel trolley is out.

I'm from Tae Sung Coal Mine, Director Shin Tae Hwan.

As a representative of the coal mine, I joined in the rescue team.

As soon as the accident happened, I arrived on site to help in the rescue.

You jerk!

You should state up-front whether the men are alive or dead.

I'm very sorry to say that this accident is the typical one caused by machinery faults.

You jerk!

You should first tell me whether my husband is alive or not.

It almost caused a major accident,

But because of Union Head Lee Ki Chul's timely evacuation order, a major accident was avoided.

Is my husband dead or alive? Tell me, you jerk!

Trolleys from the second rescue team are coming out now!

Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul's dad, what happened to you?

You can't die.

You mustn't die.

Hey,

Hey, Dong Chul's dad,

Think of the kids.

Do you want them to become orphans without their father?

Your Dong Chul, look at him.

You mustn't leave Dong Chul like this.

How much he loves you, you should know that.

Without you, he won't survive.

For his sake, you must rise again.

Look at him, Honey!

Wearing the present he made for you, crying over here.

Open your eyes and look.

Open your eyes to look, Honey.

This can't happen to you.

Can you hear Jung Ja crying?

Jung Ja is right here with you and the baby's here too.

The baby, for the baby's sake, you mustn't give up.

You hear me?

Do you hear me?

Jung Ja, cry louder.

Cry till he wakes up, cry even louder.

Make him hold onto his lifeline.

Cry even louder, hurry! Hurry!

Hold on!

Hey!

Is he dead? Why are you crying like that?

Lee Ki Chul is fighting so hard for his life right now,

Why are you crying?

Survive this.

It's such a grieve to die like this.

Isn't it?

Yes,

Lee Ki Chul, while he was living with me, he has never said he loves me.

Forget it,

Never saying such embarrassing things, me too, I'm the same.

Ki Chul, I like you,

I love you, I've never ever said that yet.

So,

You should at least wake up and say those lines before you die.

Do you hear me?

Do you hear me or not?

Say something.

If you can hear me, say something.

I hear that when someone is about to die, they can still listen.

If you want to say you like Yang Chun Hee, then tell me so.

If you can't say it then just use your hand to tell me.

Say you can hear me.

Say that you like Yang Chun Hee.

Use your hand to answer me please!

Dong Chul's dad, can you hear me?

You're signaling to me that you can hear me, right?

It's your signal that you can hear me, right?

Dong Chul's dad. Dong Chul's dad.

Thank you.

Thank you, thank you...

Thank you for hearing me, Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul's dad, listen to me.

What I want to say is,

What I want to say is,

What I want to say to you, is that I'm sorry.

Meeting someone like me, clinging onto you, you've really suffered.

I'm really, really very sorry.

A fool like me, has no courage to tell you that I like you.

I...

I love you so much I can't express it.

I love you so much I'm willing to die with you.

If you die, I'm willing to die with you.

You didn't know that, right?

You didn't know that.

Hey, Jung Ja,

He can hear me now,

He's listening to what I'm saying.

When he hears me, he answers me with his hand.

Hold his hand like this, tell him what you want to say.

Hurry, there's no more time.

Hold his hand, hurry!

Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul's dad.

I'm passionate about this land, where these coal miners work in unbearable environment and difficult times,

This land which produces such a noble performance and spirit.

But today I have to stand here to send off one of Tae Sung's great friend.

In order for the death of our comrade, Lee Ki Chul, not to be in vain,

I promise to use everything in Tae Sung to prevent such future accidents.

I promise to do everything I can for his family.

You jerk, who ought to be dead!

This matter of you killing off my husband is known to everyone here dead or alive.

You're the only one pretending not to know and talking nonsense here!

What you have done, my son can't even bring himself to talk about it.

Such a young boy like him is so grieved that he can't even cry out loud.

When his father was dying, he couldn't even yell out for him.

Look at them carefully.

The children of Lee Ki Chul whom you killed off,

They will bear the grudge of their father's innocent death in their hearts,

They will definitely avenge their father!

Look carefully and recognize their faces!

Then Jehovah said to Cain, �Where is your brother Abel??

He replied, �I don't know. Am I my brother's keeper??/i>

�What have you done??/i>

�Your brother's blood cried out to me from the ground.?

�Which opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.?/i>

�Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground.?/i>

�When you work the ground, it will no longer yield crops for you.?/i>

�You will be a restless wanderer on the earth.?/i>

Say your last goodbye to your father, Dong Chul.

Tell him, have a good journey.

Open your mouth big and say, �Dad, have a good journey.? say your last greeting.

Listen, Dong Chul,

Your father can't live without you,

Your father is counting on you for the final part of his journey.

Although we're so aggrieved and so sad,

Tell him, �Have a good journey.?

Hurry.

Say it.

Say your last greeting, Dong Chul.

Say it, Dong Chul.

Open your mouth, Dong Chul.

Open it.

Dong Chul's dad!

Dong Chul says he loves you higher than the sky!

Dong Chul says he loves you higher than the sky!

Dong Chul says he loves you higher than the sky!

Can you hear that, Dong Chul's dad?

Dong Chul says he loves you higher than the sky!

Dong Chul's dad!

Dong Chul says he loves you higher than the sky!

Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul's dad.

Dong Chul says he loves you higher than the sky!

Dong Chul's dad.

I don't have the right to say such things but who knows what will happen in future.

But if like what Dong Chul's mom says, something happens to me in the mine,

No matter where, the only person who can give strength to Dong Chul's mom and the kids, is you.

That won't happen, no matter what.

The only thing I can do is to follow you, that's all.

If a mining accident happens,

I'll follow you in death. I will.

Other than following you, there's nothing else I can do.

Then, you rest.

I'll go find out if the tunnel is repaired yet.

I think on this earth, there's no one else as irresponsible as you.

What do you want me to do?

In such a big, wide world, you left such young children,

What do you want me to do?

You just left like that.

To tell the truth,

The wooden block named Lee Ki Chul,

To me...

Is even more hateful that that fella Shin Tae Hwan.

Did you hear me, you fool?

Dong Chul,

On this earth, there's only you and Dong Wook and me, three of us.

Like what your father said, you're the father now.

Understand?

Up to today...

We'll just cry up to today,

Understand?

Sister!

Sister!

Dong Chul!

Dong Chul!

Dong Chul,

Dong Chul,

Hey, you idiot!

Hey, you idiot!

Why didn't you go your own way and came back here?

Why did you come back?

Why did you come back, you idiot?

Why are you always doing this to me? Why are you scolding me?

Yang Chun Hee,

You're a fool too, don't you know?

Why am I the only idiot around?

Those who love Lee Ki Chul, there's you and I, we're the same.

He doesn't want to see us and he just left by himself, don't you get it?

Yes,

that jerk asked me for a favor before he died.

He asked me to take care of a mad woman like you.

He asked me to take care of you wherever you go.

He asked me to take care of you.

Mad woman!

Spoken by a mad woman, who will believe you?

Yes,

Whether in the past or right now, I've been a mad woman.

So I'm going to pretend to be mad and stay here.

You!

You mad woman! Crazy!

You, who loved Lee Ki Chul and stayed here all along, how dare you say such things to me!

I...

If it weren't for the kids, I'd have left long ago with Lee Ki Chul.

Listen carefully, Yang Chun Hee,

You're not the only one with kids,

This kid, loves me more than you.

In my womb, I also have Lee Ki Chul's baby.

Why are you so shocked?

Didn't you arrange it for us? Why are you shocked?

Yes.

I'm a woman and I'm human too.

I didn't just love Lee Ki Chul with words only.

Thanks to you, I've become a woman too.

I have a child in my womb too,

Thanks to your kindness wider than the ocean.

10 years later

I'm done eating.

- Go well. - Thank you.

- Ahjumma, thank you. - Don't mention, come again.

Hello.

Newspaper's here.

Thanks!

Newspaper's here.

Oh, Dong Wook's here.

Bye!

- Hello. - Come in.

Ahjumma, let me do it.

It's alright.

Everyone knows the Dong Chul, Dong Wook brothers, are geniuses around the Kangwondo area.

When you become prosecutors in future, you must fight the cause of the poor.

- You got that? - Yes.

Hyung!

Hyung!

A shoot that has started growing in the wrong way, must be removed.

Hyung!

If you dare make a stupid move, you'll die without anyone knowing.

The next ones will be your kids.

Because of you, Dong Wook almost died.

I heard only cash will do.

Hyung!

Hyung!

My father's betrayer, return my father to me!

Dong Wook, don't. Dong Wook!

We have nowhere else to go,

You must study very hard.

Hyung!

You'll always be my brother.
