Episode 2

What are you saying?

What absurdity are you spouting,

what bomb are you dropping?

You do know what you're saying is ridiculous, right?

Yes.

You know, and yet...

I don't want to live with some random woman I don't love-

How is Hyang Gi some random woman?

Since she started walking, she's only stumbled after you.

I know.

How long have you two known each other?

Hyang Gi only has you.

What started as a joke turned into reality, and she's long been your match,

you're the bad guy here!

You've even slept with her, so what's with the sudden change of heart?

The wedding is right around the corner,

how could you say something like that now?

That's why I just wanted to give up.

Then you should've kept your mouth shut, and just let things be!

What will make me even more of a bad guy?

If I leave things as they are I'll forever be lying to her.

As long as Hyang Gi doesn't know it'll be fine.

Mother.

Forget it.

Forget it all and devote yourself to Hyang Gi.

End it with this.

Don't say a word to your father.

I just spoke to him before you came home,

and he asked why it was so difficult for you to get two weeks off for your honeymoon.

Your father is the director of the hospital that Hyang Gi's father is the chairman of.

They've been long-time friends,

and he's in a position where he has to act in compliance to Hyang Gi's father.

Do I have to explain all this to you?

I see... you have no interest in my happiness.

This is too big and it's too late to worry about that.

You're the one who cheated on his fiancee.

My world is cracking.

And your father's universe will crumble.

Do you want to kill Hyang Gi too?

You're going to do it?

Is that something you can bring yourself to do?

How foolish you are...

I'll pretend I haven't heard this.

End it immediately.

You want me to do it?

Don't force me to take such measures.

Oppa, what brings you here?

Coffee.

Oh, since you said you wanted to have a drink I thought we were going to a pojangmacha.

You want to?

No.

It's cold.

This is hot, pick one.

No, it doesn't matter.

It's late, did you have a drink?

Yeah, a bit.

It's been a while since we've seen each other like this.

Yeah.

Ji Hyung wanted to see me, so I met him.

You don't need to pretend as if nothing's happened.

Why did he...

I don't know what he's thinking, it wasn't necessary.

How much did he tell you?

Everything.

He felt uncomfortable.

He said it was difficult to face you.

Why did you do it?

You knew very well you couldn't have him.

So I'm not even allowed to look at him?

I can't even touch him?

You know he's been promised to another for a long time.

Did he, by chance, say that woman didn't matter?

I was the one who didn't care.

I wanted to steal him away for a little while.

- You're not that kind of kid... - It just turned out that way.

That's how it ended up. And I let it be.

I'm sorry for disappointing you.

I thought about it for a long time and hesitated,

but I didn't want to just give up and regret it for the rest of my life.

I don't even think that what I did was wrong or that I was bad.

I did everything.

I did as much as I wanted, as much as I could, I did it all.

And that's enough.

You would've been hell-bent on stopping me.

I didn't want you to interfere.

You were thrown away.

That's not true.

We just said our good-byes.

No one threw away or was thrown away.

That's what we decided from the beginning.

So you're saying you're okay.

That it's nothing.

It's not nothing.

But it's not as if an earthquake or volcano has erupted.

How are you going to get through it?

I'll either forget a little everyday,

or long for him everyday,

it'll be one out of the two.

Which one do you think it'll be?

I'm going to forget him.

Within three months and ten days, I'm going to forget it all.

Don't force yourself, you don't need to smile.

Yeah, Oppa.

I'm fine, don't worry.

Really.

Love moves and changes,

and in some cases it rots and leaves a foul stench.

Can something that isn't love turn to love?

If that could happen,

you should've made up your mind a long time ago.

I didn't know what it was.

I thought it wasn't an uncomfortable emotion.

Passion and desire doesn't necessarily translate to love.

It's easy to mistake one for the other.

I'm not that foolish.

Even water that boils,

will cool down when the fire is quenched.

It's better than never having boiled at all.

What kind of girl is she?

I am curious.

She doesn't have parents.

She has one younger brother and lived with her aunt.

Your father arrives tomorrow.

End it quietly.

She's not the type to cause problems, is she?

That'll be the worst.

People can go bad as well.

Factor out your greed,

and put her and us on the scale.

I'm sorry, it can't be helped.

Don't make any problems.

I'm counting on you.

Ultimately, it's to make you feel better.

Don't just talk about bordering on going crazy. Really truly go crazy.

Then I'll believe you.

Stop, stop, stop!

What?

Heart attack, heart attack.

Slowly, slowly, a bit at a time!

Don't be such a wimp.

You want to spend all night out here?

Honestly!

It feels like my heart is shriveling!

The neighbors will all laugh if they find out I died like this!

You won't even get any sympathy!

Be quiet! Stay still.

Don't play around.

Hurry and get up.

I'll leave Ji Min in your care... honey.

Fine, I'll call the undertaker.

You're pretty late.

Mom, the son you love so much is home!

Yeah, all right!

I guess you don't see me.

You'll get a cold.

I never get colds.

You're so late, son.

Your father was trying to stay awake, but he fell asleep at ten.

You should go to sleep.

Right, go on in.

You must be so tired.

Hey, wait, wait.

You didn't drink that much...

Who were you with for so long?

Good night.

Yeah.

You woke up?

Turn the light off.

He didn't even drink that much, why was he so late?

Does he have a girl?

I'm itching to ask him, but I couldn't.

Let him be.

Until when?

Until when?

If I die it won't be because of cancer,

but because I couldn't breathe.

Noona, what are you doing?

What is it?

You want to eat ramyun?

Ramyun!

No!

You can't say otherwise later!

All right, I won't.

You've got a call!

From Park Ji Sook!

Yeah, Jae Min.

I just came back from seeing Seo Yeon.

She's trying hard to appear as if she's okay.

The first day she came to our house,

she woke up early at six,

and had already washed up her brother,

a six year old kid.

She was well aware of her situation,

and she was quick to keep her brother in line.

Starting from middle school she took care of half the cooking.

And by the first year of high school,

she earned her own money by tutoring the kids of my mom's customers.

She pretends that nothing's wrong, that she's all right, that it's not hard,

that it doesn't hurt...

It's become embedded in herself.

She smiled for no reason, without shedding a tear.

She said she'd forget it all within three months and ten days.

She even told me that she was fine and not to worry.

But I have to say this.

You looked down on our Seo Yeon.

If she was the daughter of some well-to-do family, you wouldn't have been able to do that.

So no matter what excuse you make,

you're a coward.

That's all.

I don't know about the taste,

but it doesn't look all that great.

It's made out of chocolate.

Macadamia nuts?

No, hazelnut.

Try some.

No, I can't be the first to try it!

Later, I'll have some later.

All right, then.

Did you run away from your mom again?

No, my mom hasn't even gotten up yet.

I thought about coming after jogging,

but I'll be covered in sweat so I came directly here.

I made some last night,

they go really well with black coffee.

They're really good.

That's all you came here for?

No, he must've come back late,

I can't wake him up at this hour.

I'll leave after I have a cup of coffee with you.

When did he come in?

What time was it...

Didn't he come a little past eleven?

He must've been tired,

he came in before twelve.

He seems to be really tired lately.

Maybe he needs to get a check-up.

There's no need.

Maybe he has acute hepatitis or something.

If you need me, just call.

All right.

He must be tied up at work.

Although people say there isn't that much work in construction,

he seems to be getting plenty of offers for villas and resorts.

Great, then I'll drink this and wake him up.

He looked like he had a few drinks.

You should just leave him be until he wakes up.

Okay.

Oh, right.

It's a secret that I came here from my mom.

She's so annoying.

You'll need to pick a dress.

I got a call last night saying they just got in twelve dresses from Paris.

Oppa's tuxedo came as well.

You know what the stylist said?

She told me not to try on all twelve dresses.

She was that confident.

Right.

Oh, and... could I go up to his room for a bit?

I won't wake him up.

I'll just take a peek for a second and come back out.

All right, you can go.

He must've been drunk,

he didn't even close his curtains before he slept.

He drank more after he got home.

Oppa.

- Oppa. - What are you doing to a person who's sleeping?

You shouldn't do this!

I shouldn't?

We're home.

It's been too long.

You said you didn't want to do it at a hotel or your officetel,

and I didn't either, so I waited.

But it's been too long for us.

We're not rocks or blocks of wood, it's been over a year.

Sometimes, I really want to touch you.

Am I strange?

We're home, my mom and aunt are here.

I know that too.

I was wrong, I won't do it ever again.

But still, you didn't have to be so harsh.

I feel so humiliated.

At times you feel like another person.

I'll go out after I've taken a shower.

Apologize.

All right. I'm sorry.

Okay, I forgive you.

Hurry and go out.

All right, you're such a clean freak.

What a big cat we have here.

Mom, you enjoy living in exaggeration?

Bring that in.

It's hot, Mom.

It'll get dusty.

Honey! I need to go to the funeral!

That idiot.

Whether I go into debt or sell my mom,

I need to go get myself a suit.

You're the worst wife ever!

I don't have proper suit for funeral.

Be quiet!

Be quiet, quiet!

Is Father angry?

It's Sunday, Jae Min is still sleeping.

Sleeping?

Yes.

Are you sure he's sleeping?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Mother, do you, by any chance, have a twin you lost?

What?

He stopped by the shop and left with some bread.

When?

I think it's been about an hour.

What was I doing that I didn't even know that?

Were you not in the toilet?

You're right.

I was reading "Good Connection" while sitting at the toilet.

I was the one who got the lifetime subscription for that.

Right, if you do it two more times it'll be the 8,000th time.

I'll do it until I reach 10,000.

Right, I know, I know.

It's good to see you, it's good to see you too.

Have you been well?

It's really hot, right?

It's hard, right?

It's hard for me as well,

it's hard for me as well.

Wait, wait a bit.

Did you go on a business trip?

I didn't see you last week.

Oh, I was being lazy.

What?

What is it?

That... the thing I use to line the manuscripts... green!

- A highlighter? - Yeah, that.

- You used it all? - Yeah.

How many?

Are you in a hurry? Do you need it immediately?

No, get some when you come back home.

- Have a good day. - Bye.

Weird, why couldn't I think of the word highlighter?

Did you buy it?

No, a female coworker of mine burned it for me.

Female coworker? Why?

It's a hobby of hers to give burned CDs as gifts.

My coworkers have already gotten a few.

I told her I liked arias and she made one right away.

Do you even know what it is?

"Madame Butterfly". "One Beautiful Day".

- Have you ever seen it? - No, only heard it.

Was it Pinkerton? The guy who betrayed the geisha,

and married another when he returned to his country.

Impressive, how can you remember all that?

I must've read it somewhere.

So you must know that it's the song she sang,

right before she stabbed herself and sent her son to the Pinkerton's.

Right.

The story is a bit melodramatic but every time I hear it,

I feel like I'm the one being stabbed.

You're more in tune with your emotions than you appear.

How do I appear?

You hate drama.

What does that and emotions have to do with anything?

Does being emotional equate to being dramatic?

If you take out the emotions, how can it be a drama?

Fine, I'm dramatic.

My father died when I was five,

my mom ran away when I was six,

and my brother and I were left alone.

My life itself is a melodrama.

Throbbing so fast.

Quiet, let's hear it out to the end.

Yes?

Lee Seo Yeon, where are you right now?

I'm at home, editor.

What are you talking about?

Aren't you going to the mountain?

Have you forgotten about the meeting at the entrance to Chung Gae mountain at seven?

Get your head on straight!

I forgot.

I'm so sorry, editor.

I'll be there right away.

I'll take a taxi.

It'll be too late, don't.

We'll do it ourselves, so rest up.

And have a good break.

I'm sorry, editor. I'm really very sorry.

I said it's fine, I'm hanging up.

Entrance to Chung Gae mountain, meeting at seven in the morning.

- Tomorrow at two, all right? - Okay.

- You can't forget, okay? - All right.

- We need to get our rings too. - I can't spare more than an hour.

I've already got the designs.

We just need to get our measurements, so it won't take even thirty minutes.

I need to go to the site with representative Song.

All right, I'm sorry.

I'll be going.

Hot!

Stupid.

Moron.

Idiot.

Fool.

Get your act together, why are you so out of it?

You should've heard the sound of it boiling.

Are your ears as well as your nose blocked?

What's wrong with you?

No, it's okay.

I was concentrating.

When I concentrate, I don't think about anything else.

Then what about the meeting at the mountain?

How can you possibly be in your right mind?

It's obvious you aren't.

But even if I forgot for a moment, I should be able to remember it.

Why is it a white slate?

And what about the highlighter?

Did you quit work?

Why would I quit?

You're not going to work?

I don't work on Sundays.

It's Monday, not Sunday.

Do you have two Sundays on your calendar?

Yesterday was the last day of your break, Sunday!

What's wrong with you?

Is it a side effect from your painkillers?

Stop taking them. Stop taking them and go to the hospital.

Isn't it Sunday?

You were complaining about how your break was ending.

You were so fixated on that that you didn't even know the day had passed.

It's way past seven, you're already late.

If it was me, I'd fire any employee who was late

on the first day after their break.

What are you doing?

Hurry and get up!

I was going to cook some bean sprouts.

I've already made the rice, serve yourself.

All right, all right, I'll take care of it.

What the hell?

Are you trying to kill yourself?

Please hurry and cross! Hurry!

You can't stop traffic!

Hello.

- I'm sorry for being late. - Hello.

I'm sorry.

Are you having some problems in your life?

Excuse me?

Oh, I don't have any problems in my life, editor.

I haven't been getting any sleep, and I overslept.

You must've had a good sleep.

Yes, that's correct.

All right, let's start the meeting.

Yes.

It fits perfectly, it doesn't need any adjustments.

I'll make that decision.

All right.

Did you gain some weight?

No, I didn't.

You must've been slacking off on your exercise.

Did I gain weight?

Why isn't your groom here?

He's coming, he'll be here.

Did I gain a lot of weight?

The dress says you have.

Oh no!

Oppa!

Welcome.

Oppa, she said I gained weight.

Did I gain weight? Does it look like I did?

I don't know, I can't really tell.

What do you think?

Right. It's nice.

Shouldn't you be a bit more excited?

Why are you so uninterested?

He's just like that, don't worry about it.

Here.

The groom's suit!

Yes, please come this way.

Don't make any adjustments, I'll lose it by exercising more.

I'll exercise and starve myself,

so don't make any adjustments, okay?

If you can't breathe, you'll faint during the ceremony.

It'll be healed by the wedding, right?

Yes, it'll be fine.

Wait.

I can't stand it. It's old-fashioned.

She's my daughter.

Oh my! She's beautiful!

I guess.

Ma'am...

She looks like an angel.

How could you have come up with such a phrase?

Isn't it true?

Every time I see him I wonder, "he should've washed, he hasn't again."

I know what you mean, he doesn't seem to be neat.

He's like the coal maker's daughter who doesn't wash her neck.

I like it.

Maybe he just looks that way because his neck is a bit long.

I know! But it doesn't look like he cleans that long neck!

But still, he's really popular.

I wonder about that.

He's too plain, there's nothing interesting there.

An actor needs to have an aura or force about them.

For example?

So Ji Sup.

It's Mr. So again.

But why were you late?

Right, it's the first time you've been late since I started working here.

Did you overdo it last night?

- I didn't order this. - You ordered the curry.

No, I ordered the pork cutlet.

I ordered the pork cutlet, so why are you giving me the curry?

- You ordered the curry. - No, no, you got it wrong.

You must've switched our orders with another table.

You ordered the curry.

Yes, you did.

I did?

Yes, you ordered the curry.

I heard it too.

What are you talking about?

I definitely ordered the pork cutlet.

Kim Seon Joo, did I order the curry?

I don't think I heard.

I clearly heard you order the curry.

Me too.

Weird...

Maybe you were thinking of pork cutlet in your head when you ordered the curry,

you may have accidentally said curry instead of pork cutlet.

No, I didn't.

Team Manager, you can switch with me.

It doesn't matter to me.

I like curry too.

It's fine.

I'm sorry.

She said she was buying, and she's just leaving.

I'll pay.

I'll pay.

But why is she getting so angry?

She's not the type to get so worked up, it's weird.

What's there to get angry about?

I was mistaken.

Tell them to enjoy and that I'm sorry.

It's okay, things like that can happen.

Enjoy.

How can I help you?

Excuse me.

We can make it for you as well.

Turkey sandwich and a coffee.

All right.

Stay seated! Stay right there.

I can take this off, right Doctor Kang?

Yes, please.

Now you're finally worth looking at.

No more mummy wife from now on.

Your eyebrows are going to be attached to here soon.

Then you'll be a monster.

I'm warning you, this is really the end.

I feel like death.

When you're sleeping next to a mummy, you yourself feel like you're dead.

Do you know how scary it is to see a mummy moving around at night?

Do you have nothing else to talk about?

I'm only saying it because it's us three.

Why are you still wearing that?

Is there still some bruising?

People will find out. Stop it.

And the kids?

They're here, they wanted to take a look at some things.

My husband's almost here as well.

The guest has arrived.

I'm not late.

I'm five minutes early.

I just got here as well.

Hello.

Hello.

Take that off.

Right, shall I?

Why is it so hot?

I'll be taking this off.

Sure.

She's got a sty in her eye.

She didn't want you to see it so she got surgery.

Oh...

This color!

Oppa, pretty, right?

Right? You heard it too, right?

You think I'm deaf?

But why did you say you didn't hear?

What point is there in me fanning the flames?

You could see the team manager's eyelashes trembling.

It's possible she could've mistaken herself for a moment,

but why did she have to get angry?

That's the first time I've seen the team manager act like that.

I was so shocked.

Yeah, it was a bit unexpected.

Oh yeah. I got an email asking me to call. Let me have the phone.

All right, I'll send it to you by phone.

It's not coming out well.

You're so sensitive.

That's right, I'm sensitive.

Who is it?

The person who unexpectedly got angry.

Oh no...

You heard?

You think I'm deaf?

We weren't talking behind your back.

Yes, you were.

Yeah, Oppa?

Are you okay?

Of course.

Did you eat lunch?

I just ate some noodles and am getting back to work.

You're really okay, right?

Has he called you?

He hasn't called since the day before yesterday.

Or maybe it was the day before that.

No, I didn't pick up, what for?

The end means the end, it's pathetic.

What were you expecting?

Just forget about it.

Yeah, forget about it and leave me alone.

You bother me about it everyday.

I'm going to have to change my number,

not because of him but because of you.

I can't not pick up your calls.

Maybe you don't want to cut yourself off from him completely.

Right?

Fine, I'll change it.

Has Young Soo's movie made its premiere?

I thought it was supposed to be released around this time.

It premiered about a week ago.

Really?

That bastard was born to throw my money down the drain.

What's with the 'bastard'?

What of it?

You don't call your own child a bastard.

Mothers use it to refer to their children.

Why are you picking a fight?

Even my mother called me a bastard.

Is something causing you pain?

- Me? - Yeah.

Why do you look so glum, as if you've eaten something rotten.

And you haven't said one word unless it was in answer to something.

He has no reason to gossip with you at a place like this,

- why are you being like this? - Why are you being like this?

You look uncomfortable.

Why are you so uncomfortable?

It's like you're somewhere else.

What is it?

If there's a problem, I'll take care of it here immediately,

so just tell me.

Is someone making problems for you or can you not pay the bills?

Dad!

No, there's nothing wrong.

Why are you getting on his case? This isn't the first or second time you've seen him.

This isn't the first or second time, but it was bothering me.

It's so easy to bother you.

That's nice.

I can't see your eyes, I can't see your third or fourth eye behind that.

- All right then. - Good bye.

- I'll see you tomorrow. - Don't be late, it's at seven.

I won't be late, I won't be late.

Good bye.

Seat him at another table tomorrow.

Ahjussi!

We should go too.

Right, go, go.

You displeased me today.

Yes.

Mom, stop it.

- Bye, Ahjumma. - All right.

I'll leave oppa in your care.

Don't worry.

I'll call you, Oppa.

How were you going to act?

What's with your attitude?

You don't think I was worried as well?

What are you doing?

I'll take a taxi.

Why? Hurry and get in.

I'll be more comfortable in a taxi.

You should go first.

You're trying to avoid me nagging.

Yes.

Fine, do as you like.

Stop it!

Hurry!

Listen, just listen, all right?

All right.

Take a deep breath.

As deep a breath as you can take.

You're so mean.

This is why you woke me up?

I was right, wasn't I?

There's no one here.

I was really curious how it would be like under water.

You're such a pervert.

We...

We what?

How will we be living in five years?

How will it be in ten years?

How will our feelings have changed?

What kind of person will you remember me as?

And when will I be able to let you go?

Will I be able to let you go?

In five years,

you'll probably be a father.

In ten years,

you'll be a forty year old ahjussi.

At that point,

today will appear like a faded, yellowed old photograph.

Without even knowing it,

you'll realize you've already let go.

After that, the days will continue to build on top of each other,

and you'll be like a fossil from the dinosaur age to me.

Too depressing?

This is Lee Seo Yeon, I wasn't able to reach the quota.

No matter how hard I tried to lengthen it, I just couldn't do anymore.

Did you send the manuscript?

I'm calling because I've been waiting.

I sent it, you didn't receive it?

No, I didn't.

Where did it go off to?

Emails lately have been arriving hours later than usual.

I sent it last night around ten or eleven.

Anyway, I definitely sent it.

It's hard to believe an email you sent last night still hasn't arrived.

Anyway, please send it again.

All right, I just got home, I'll send it right away.

All right, thank you.

Yes.

I sent it.

I sent it, I definitely sent it.

I sent it.

Welcome!

I decided to make curry today.

It's going to be amazing.

What's wrong?

What?

Be quiet.

Did you lose something you've been working on?

I said be quiet!

Why are you getting angry?

You keep talking to me for no reason.

Did you lose it?

You can't retrieve it?

Moon Kwon.

Yes?

When I completed the manuscript for the autobiography yesterday,

didn't I send it?

You must have, you said you were.

You sent that, made some fried eggs and we had one each.

They didn't get it?

It disappeared?

Fine, all right.

Emails are now not only arriving late but disappearing?

No way.

I didn't send it.

There's no record.

Noona, what's wrong with you?

Why do you keep forgetting things?

Stop taking the painkillers, I think that's the problem.

I sent it, please check.

Change my phone number.

You said you could do it through the homepage, right?

Yes, but why?

When I tell you to do something just do it.

Do you have to know everything?

You do that too.

All right, all right.

I'll shut my mouth and complete my task,

I have no complaints!

Change your clothes and wash up, I'm hungry.

Let's eat some curry.

What did you say?

I made some curry and rice, didn't you hear?

Why did it have to be curry?

You like curry.

Since when?

What's wrong with her?

All right.

Wait!

You can't do it like that.

She's a bride, she should look like a bride. Like this.

What do you think? It's good, right?

Yes, it's fine.

- Okay, you can take it. - All right, I'll take the picture.

Look here. Three, two-

Wait!

Hyang Gi, don't stick too close.

Why is the bride smiling so much?

Hold the flower up, and you come out a bit,

so that your face will come out smaller.

- Good, right? - Yes.

So that your face will be smaller, right.

Okay, okay...

Okay...

- Are the lights fine? - Yes.

Can you take the picture slightly lower?

Right? I think that'll be better.

Ji Hyung, smile! Smile!

Hyang Gi, get a bit closer.

Smile, smile! Okay!

All right, one, two...

Wait!

Really...

Hey, move your breasts up a bit, like this.

Mom!

Wedding photos are like your honeymoon, you only get it once.

Mom, you're not a professional, leave it up to the pros!

You're being completely rude!

Rudeness is momentary, pictures are forever.

It's fine, right Mr. Choi?

Yes, are you ready now?

The kids are going to get tired, stop it.

Ahjumma, please take my mom to a cafe or something.

We won't even get one good photo because of mom.

What?

We're going to be spending the entire night like this.

And my feet hurt.

You think you'll get anything with no suffering?

Endure it!

You think I'm doing this because I have an excess of strength?

Let's go.

Let's go and drink some tea, and get some fresh air.

There's no need for us to be here.

Are you the only one whose feet hurt? You think I like doing this?

Ma'am!

I'm sorry, Oppa.

Let's start.

All right.

Bye.

Tired, right?

This is no joke.

Mom wasted two hours.

Why was there no shoot afterwards today?

It's a really busy studio.

There's no reason for me to be dragged around anymore.

You said you didn't want an outdoor shoot.

Dunk your legs in some warm water and rest up.

You should go to a sauna too.

Can't you just take some work off? There's not much time left.

I'll do what I can.

Jo Eun Young, please come in.

Lee Seo Yeon, please come in.

Yes.

Hello, doctor.

Yes, take a seat.

I'll put it back when I leave.

Oh, right.

They're going to use it as a villa and a work space.

They've been investing money into the land but it hasn't raised in value for years,

so his painter wife begged for a villa.

He's a painter?

The wife is.

It's the wife's wish to live in the country and paint,

and the husband also wants to put the main focus on her workshop.

They're going to be living half the year in Seoul, half in the country.

The wife isn't your typical woman.

She even brought a wish list.

Thank you.

All right, first, she wants a big workshop and a deck that leads out of it.

The deck needs to be spacious.

The kitchen also needs to be big,

and the living room should extend to the roof.

We'll need to make sure of the dimensions of the building first.

I already talked about it.

How big do they want it?

Including the basement, about 130 pyeong*. (*one pyeong is equal to 3.954 sq yd or 35.586 sq ft)

They also want a noraebang and wine bar in the basement.

And the amount?

They don't care.

They visited Chairman Oh's house at Pangyo.

They're friends, and it looks like they're rivals.

They want it to be better than that house.

I said it was our first project and they were shocked.

And the conditions of the site?

You won't need to worry about that.

I uploaded the pictures, go take a look.

Itaewon lady wants to redo the kitchen!

Again?

She picked it out happily enough,

and even yesterday she was perfectly happy with it,

and while we were finishing up she said it looked like a room salon,

and wants it done all over again!

No, my memory was actually very good.

I've never thought my memory was bad.

But at some point,

although I can't pinpoint the exact date...

Last fall? Or maybe last winter?

Anyway, remembering my phone,

struggling to find my car keys,

completely forgetting to make a phone call,

suddenly forgetting the name of an actor while watching TV.

And it's gotten worse recently?

Yes. And I'm tired.

Did you perhaps hit your head in a car accident?

No.

Do you think you suffer from a lot of stress?

Stress...

I don't think it's because of stress.

What about sleep?

How many hours of sleep do you get?

Do you sleep soundly?

No, not really, I can't get a good night's sleep.

And it takes a while for me to fall asleep.

What about your appetite?

I don't really crave anything, but I do eat.

On a scale of one to ten, where would you rank your migraine?

At its most painful.

I wonder...

I'm not really sure, around a six or seven?

It's difficult to endure without medicine.

And its frequency? How many times does it occur in a week?

Three days? Four?

Once it starts, it lasts the whole day.

When you take your medicine, does the pain subside?

Not completely, but yes.

What year is it right now?

Do I have Alzheimer's?

Or am I in the process, and have a mild cognitive impairment?

You've done a lot of research.

I searched on the internet,

I was worried.

Yes, well first,

please answer these questions and make notes often.

What day is it today?

Wednesday.

Seventy-seven plus twelve is what?

Eighty-eight. No, nine, eighty-nine.

Please count backwards from that number.

Eighty-nine, eighty-seven, eighty-six, eighty-four,

eighty-three, eighty-two, eighty-one, eighty.

Name as many vegetable as you can.

Bean sprouts, cabbage, eggplant,

cucumbers, squash, potatoes...

Cab...bage...

Chives,

peppers...

chwinamul*. (*Korean leaf vegetable)

All right, remember these items and please repeat them.

What items are under here?

Pen, glasses, watch, coin...

Coin...

this...

It's what people give each other when they first meet.

Your name and contact number.

Business card.

You're right, it's a business card.

You're tired, right?

Yes... no.

[Cabbage]

Snowman,

bat,

tadpole.

If I have an engagement and then say, "what engagement?" that's Alzheimer�s.

But if I say, "oh, right, I had an engagement," then that's just forgetfulness.

There are many similarities between mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's,

so it's difficult to differentiate with just a neuro-psychic test.

MRI and PET scan will be the next step,

And even then it may be difficult

to differentiate between Alzheimer's or a mild cognitive impairment.

In that case, we'll have to spend one or two years continually testing.

What is this?

I think Seo Yeon should be writing her own material.

Ghostwriting for someone who doesn't have the qualifications...

Seeing her rewriting for others was pitiful.

The only thing I can do...

there's nothing I can do.

Don't mention me, tell her you want to help,

tell her to write her own book.

Say that you'll take care of her living expenses.

So simply put, is it consolation money?

That's not what I mean.

I told her many times that she should be writing her own book.

So why are you giving this now?

I could because I was afraid I'd hurt her.

It'll be enough for a year.

Until she can support herself by writing novels,

I'll sponsor her.

- Take it back. - Jae Min.

I've never told her I'd sponsor her so that she could write her own material.

And even if I did, she'd never accept it.

You still don't know her at all.

You want to forget it with this?

You want to make me into some kind of matchmaker?

Should I take half and give the other half to her?

Fine, the you that I know isn't that kind of person.

But this is an insult to the feelings she had for you.

She isn't someone you can console with money.

Yeah, you're right.

I didn't think.

I was hoping you'd help.

How is she?

She's doing well.

She's strong.

The harder it is, the stronger she acts.

I know.

How are you?

I'm just... being dragged along.

Let's get up.

Yeah.

Sorry.

Where's your car?

In the parking lot over there, I have to walk a bit.

All right, then.

- It comes out to 18,400 won. - Here.

Out of 20,000 won, 1,600 won is your change.

Thank you, good bye.

Oh, hi.

Noona.

I didn't want to make dinner, and we don't have any ramyun either.

- You're here? - Yes.

I don't think we have any of those red bean donuts you like.

Anything is fine with me.

Honey, pick a variety of ten, I'll pay for it.

Why are you passing over the sausage?

Stop butting in!

Idiot... I haven't gotten to ten yet.

And what if you never get to ten?

It's in the order of arrival, pick them in the order they arrived in!

Really!

Don't even dream of having a husband who you're with all day.

They go on about how we're such a beautiful couple, my life sucks.

Thanks, Unni. I'll be going.

All right.

Bye.

Bye.

You don't need to come out!

Why are you coming out?

Just because, I wanted to get some fresh air.

You said you were going to take a break, when did you get here?

At three.

Their part-timer is away for three days, so they asked me to fill in.

What about the convenience store?

The owner said he'd take care of it.

All right, I'm going.

Did you come from home?

No.

Then what about the car?

You said you needed to take care of someone and took the car.

Yeah.

Oh, so you didn't want to waste gas,

left it at the office and took the bus here?

No, Moon Kwon, I came in a taxi.

What about the car?

I don't know.

What's wrong with you?

Where's the last place you went to?

Hospital.

I don't understand you.

Who leaves their car and takes a taxi?

You shouldn't be taking care of anyone,

you're the one who needs to be in the hospital.

Is something really growing in your brain?

I'll get it, what hospital is it?

Don't you want to write your own book?

A writer should write their own material.

I can't.

Are you an idiot? Do you have no pride?

You're like a cheap whore who'll do whatever her man wants, you know that?

What about the honeymoon?

Did the director say anything?

Come on, cooperate with me.

That man was mine since I was sixteen.

That can't be.
