Original subtitles

Can I help you?

Sorry?

Were you visiting my home?

No.

I was just mesmerized by the fence and trees.

I was on my way to the bus stop...

but I found myself drawn to them.

I'm sorry for the intrusion.

Hold on a second.

Yes?

- What? - Let's find Gong Joo.

- Grandma. - Let's find her.

Let's look again.

Jin Yoo?

Of course. We should look again.

Yes, we'll be able to find her.

That's not the way to the main road.

You said you were off to a bus stop.

It's that way.

Of course.

Yes, that way.

Thank you.

Father.

Oh, it's you.

- Are you getting home? - Are you going somewhere?

I thought I'd walk around the neighborhood.

What was that just now?

Oh, that. It was nothing.

Anyway, why were you...

sitting in your car?

I was on the phone with Grandma.

- Your grandmother? - Yes.

It's about Gong Joo...

(Episode 5)

Mom, it's me.

Have we ever lived near Seongbuk-dong?

- Where? - Seongbuk-dong.

What nonsense are you talking about?

Seongbuk-dong is where you're moving to.

I know but...

I was wondering if we've been here before.

Why would we have been there?

We lived in Jeolla Province...

and moved to Hwagok-dong in Seoul...

about 20 years ago.

Right.

I just found the place so familiar, that's all.

I know. I must be spacing out.

Sure, good night.

They were adopted into two different American families.

Still, even though they were living across the country,

they found each other.

I see.

Corporal Kwon has passed away,

so no one in the police probably knows about Gong Joo now.

I'll head to the police station tomorrow,

hear how the investigation is coming along,

and ask them to tighten the investigation.

This is our last chance.

If we fail again,

I doubt we'll find her before I die.

It took some families even 49 years.

Just stick around another 20.

We'll find Gong Joo,

so you must enjoy another 20 years with her.

Aren't these pretty, Grandma?

Where did those come from?

Lawyer Park bought them for me,

and I put them in a vase just for Grandma.

Why give me something that was given to you?

I wanted to cheer you up.

Don't give up, stay healthy,

and be strong until we find Gong Joo.

She wants to find Gong Joo?

Yes.

What did Jin Yoo say?

We can't ignore your mother's wishes.

We've tried everything we can though,

so I don't know if there is anything left.

What are you talking about?

We should at least do something.

I'll go to the police station too.

Really?

I'll talk to the case detective...

and ask what we should do.

It's been 33 years.

Honey.

Every time we look for her,

I always get my hopes up thinking we'll find her this time.

But I ended up failing all the time. I can't even keep count.

It's not something Mother can handle at her age.

But things could be different this time.

Honey.

Do you think our trees look nice?

Even those trees were young and little when Gong Joo was here,

but they're tall enough to go over the wall now.

What have we been doing? I didn't even notice them growing like that.

I only noticed it because a passerby mentioned it to me.

I know that you want to find her.

You want to find her more than anyone else does.

I have a breakfast meeting tomorrow. I should go to bed early.

The house next to it is even bigger.

- Will we ever live in such a house? - It is huge indeed.

- What are you doing? - Sorry?

It's getting late. What are you doing at this hour like a stray cat?

I'm organizing the fridge.

I wanted to throw stuff out and organize it before I leave.

Must you make all this noise at this late hour?

Don't you care about those who are asleep?

During the day, I have to head over to the office right after my shift.

What a sad life.

Mother.

Have a good night's sleep.

I didn't think I'd have to hear that anymore.

My dreams are gone.

Gosh, I'm exhausted.

Have you picked out clothes that you don't wear?

I told you to organize your closet before bed.

I clearly asked you to organize your closet before bed.

I'm going to wear everything. There's nothing to throw out.

What do I even expect from you?

This has been here the whole time?

I worked so hard on this whenever I had time.

Shall I hang it at Coffee Paradise?

I brought this cardigan.

I was so little.

I was only five.

We didn't even spend a year together,

but there are so many photos of us.

I feel like I'll recognize her in a heartbeat if I run into her.

- Hello! - Hi.

Hi.

My gosh, hello.

- I knew you'd be here. - Here you go.

Gosh, my husband asked for this green juice the second he woke up.

You came at the perfect time.

Someone else will deliver the juice starting tomorrow.

Why is that?

I'm moving tomorrow.

I'm so sad to hear that.

Please take care of your health. Thank you for everything.

Even when it rained or snowed,

you were never late. You were so good at your job.

Stay healthy.

My goodness.

I'm not asking for an answer now.

I'll give you two days.

Take your time and figure out what you want to do.

Let me know.

My gosh, my lawyer son.

Let's have breakfast. Have a seat.

My gosh, what's all this?

Oh, my goodness.

I found many things...

when I was organizing the fridge yesterday.

In the back of the freezer,

I found big handfuls of abalone, sea cucumbers, and even skates...

from Heuksando that you've been storing.

Today and tomorrow will be exhausting.

These will energize you, Mother.

Have you two thanked Jun Seung?

- Why should we thank him? - We're moving to Seongbuk-dong.

Aren't you grateful?

We'll live in the kind of house that you two can never afford.

Thanks, Brother. We can live in a nice house thanks to you.

- Just eat your breakfast. - Thanks to my brother,

I'm moving up in the world.

Let's try to have a good relationship for our lives.

Why aren't you saying anything?

We're moving into a house that you got for you and your future wife.

I'm sorry that things ended up this way.

We'll move out as soon as possible. Please don't worry too much.

You should, of course.

You guys have to move out no matter what before he gets married.

And don't come anywhere near Seongbuk-dong after you move out.

The blind date was last week. There are already talks of marriage?

- When is he getting married? - Gosh, anyway...

We'll pick a date for the wedding soon, so move out before that.

- "Soon"? Seriously? - Yes.

Hey, marriage is not something...

you can get done by trying hard like when you used to study for exams.

If you rush it, you can trip and fall.

Take your time and date her for at least six months to a year...

Gosh, stop spewing nonsense.

I told you to just eat your breakfast.

Goodness, why are you getting mad at me?

You'll finish yours only five minutes before I finish mine.

What's wrong with taking my time?

I must eat well to work well.

You'll work? You slack off any chance you get.

- What? - Am I a philanthropist who finds...

jobs for the jobless?

Jun Seung.

Don't you know that he comes to my office to enjoy his hobby?

- Hey, are you done? - No, I'm not.

I can't argue with you even though I'm a lawyer.

Gosh, this brat.

Enough!

Do you not want to move?

Do you want to get kicked out before you even move to Seongbuk-dong?

Gosh!

Goodness, that rude punk.

Look at what you did.

He couldn't even finish his breakfast.

Just leave him be. He dines at many nice places.

You completely depend on him financially.

You should really do everything he says.

How could you have the audacity to raise your voice and talk back?

What? I talked back to him?

Aren't I his elder brother?

Why did you give birth to me first to begin with?

Look at yourself.

You were never like this.

Are you watching this?

You've completely ruined him.

- Mother. - He used to be so naive and gentle.

He started doing all kinds of mean things after he met you.

Goodness. Gosh, I've lost my appetite.

- Mom. - We don't even know...

where she came from. She's totally ruined our family.

We know nothing about her parents or family.

It's pointless to teach that lowborn wench anything.

Gosh. Mom, what's wrong with you? Just go into your room.

Nothing's wrong with me!

Who knows what runs in her blood?

I'm doing everything I can to find a nice lady for Jun Seung...

because of you. Do you even realize that?

My goodness. Siblings get along...

only when they have a good example to learn from.

Forget it. I shouldn't even say anything. It's useless.

You ruined the relationship between Jun Seung and me a long ago.

It's not like our family has anything to be proud of.

My, I've been craving this.

It's been so long to have Grandma's fermented soybean stew.

When did you wake up and cook all of this?

Here you go. It's good for you.

It stinks.

After three spoonfuls,

you'll be less sensitive to the smell.

My gosh, Gi Ppeum. I'm amazed!

That is amazing. Watch that small mouth moving.

Did Gong Joo used to be like that too?

Yi Yoo, please.

Why? We decided to look for her again,

so we're allowed to say her name.

Isn't that right?

It's not a forbidden word.

- I have a good feeling this time. - Mother.

I know what you're worried about,

but I want to try.

Your father is worried that I'll collapse...

after getting my hopes up and down again.

I don't need to know every detail,

so make your own decisions and do what you can.

Sure thing. I'll let you know once I find anything.

I have a good feeling this time too.

Aren't you busy with the shopping mall?

Of course he is.

He stayed up until three preparing for a presentation.

Then I'll stop by the police station.

It's all right. You did all the legwork when we were young,

but now it's my job.

I'll make sure to see it through this time.

Yi Yoo should marry soon.

Sure. What?

I'm not close to a marriage yet!

Our dining room table will fill up soon.

Anyway, let's eat.

It's our new address.

I paid the cleaners, but they didn't clean the gate.

Darn it.

Go and clean the main gate.

Also, see if anywhere else needs additional cleaning.

I have some things to take care of at the office.

The main gate is the face of the family.

Don't rush the job, and scrub it with a hose.

It should be spotless for the neighbors to see.

Im Chi Woo,

can you believe this?

You cleaned this house spotless...

not knowing it was your mother-in-law's house.

This life of yours...

sure is a mess.

Still,

I cleaned her house and earned money for it.

I wrote history after all those years being hassled by her.

How stupid must you be to be doing this...

when she said all those mean things?

My goodness. Excuse me.

Miss, excuse me.

What?

My gosh.

Turn off the water first.

Of course. Gosh, I'm sorry.

As you can see, the dirty water...

is streaming down to our front gate.

I'm terribly sorry. I was trying to be careful.

- I'm so sorry. - It's okay.

Just make sure to sweep the water away.

Yes, of course. I'll do it. I'm so sorry.

One thing though.

It's just that I don't have a broom.

Follow me and I'll lend you one.

Sure.

My goodness.

Oh, dear.

Oh my.

I want it back in one piece.

- Here. - Sorry?

Oh, right. I'll bring it back to you shortly.

What on earth are you staring at?

It's nothing. Thank you for the broom.

That's weird.

I know I've seen that before.

My gosh, she wasn't wrong about the water!

I was wondering where you went.

I was out for a walk and I heard water flowing.

The gate is being cleaned next door and the water was streaming down.

Really?

I'm happier not seeing these things,

but they keep catching my eye.

Can't people tidy up things on their own?

It's been a while since someone moved in there.

You're right. I hope they're nice people.

It's Jin Yoo. I should get it.

Go ahead.

It's me. How did it go?

I talked to the case detective...

and went over Gong Joo's old files.

No, there's no one here who remembers her case.

Right. I asked them to investigate her case again.

That reminds me. Is Dad's DNA on file?

Of course. We submitted it a long time ago.

What?

A composite sketch?

Her old photographs won't be much help by itself.

If we age her photo,

we'll be able to see how she'd look about now.

I think it's best not to let your grandma see it.

Of course. I won't tell her anything until I have something certain.

Good idea. You should get back to the office.

Sure.

What shouldn't I see?

Mom.

Normally, old people lose their hearing abilities,

but mine are still too fresh for no good.

Oh, please. We should be grateful.

Anyway, it's nothing, so don't worry about it.

I knew you'd say that.

It's really nothing though.

If it's anything you should know, I would've told you already.

I don't want you to be concerned over nothing.

Thank you for that.

I'm grateful.

For what?

If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be here right now.

I would've died a long time ago.

I had a bad temper and was hard to manage.

If it weren't for you,

I wouldn't have made it for 33 years let alone 3.

- Mom... - If we find Gong Joo,

I'll treat Jin Yoo and Yi Yoo the same.

so don't worry.

Please don't say that. I wasn't worried about it.

I know.

Just think that I'm projecting my worries to you.

Sure.

If we find Gong Joo,

it'll be thanks to you.

That's the first thing I'll say when I meet her.

Sure.

Let's find Gong Joo and then you can say it.

You were supposed to write up...

Mr. Go Man Ho's review of legality for confinement.

I was just about to do it.

What about Ms. Lee's case report?

I'll get right on it.

What have you been doing at the office then?

Hold on.

- It's my dad. - What about him?

Just pick up.

Sure.

Yes, Dad.

What? Where?

Move in with me here.

Dad!

Chi Woo would never say anything meaningless.

She has a point, you know.

It's all right. We're moving in with Mom.

Move in here instead!

Think of this as your last chance and study your butt off.

Chi Yoo will have a long commute,

but it's better than being hassled by your mom.

Anyway, go and get your things.

I've already cleaned your room.

We're moving in with Mom!

What did he say?

No, Chi Yoo won't be hassled at all.

By tomorrow, she'll be living in a mansion...

with 3 to 4 housekeepers to order around!

- Don't mention that! - Seongbuk-dong?

She's moving to Seongbuk-dong?

Where did she get that kind of money?

Well, you see...

Tell me this instant!

I know nothing. It was all Mom's idea.

What do you mean? What did she do?

What? Well, Jun Seung's a lawyer,

so he took out a loan of one million dollars.

One million dollars?

No, that's not the exact amount.

I'm not sure and I don't know the details. Bye, Dad!

What on earth was she thinking?

Why mention the one million dollars...

when you're not even certain about it?

You're right.

Why did that pop out of my mouth?

What are you asking me for?

Honey, you seem prickly today.

I understand though. Things got heated this morning.

What will happen when your mom finds out?

She'll be furious!

Yes, you're right.

Anyway, I guess I should go and submit...

Mr. Go's review of legality for confinement.

Stop right there.

I should look for Ms. Lee's report while I'm there.

- Wan Seung. - It'll take some time.

Stop right there!

Chi Woo, how blindly were you in love?

How could you fall for him out of all men that are out there?

Darn it.

(Paralegal Im Chi Woo)

Why is the alarm ringing?

My test results are up.

(Search Name: Im Chi Woo)

(Im Chi Woo, Craftsman Excavating Machine Operator, Passed)

I passed.

Chi Woo,

you passed.

(Im Chi Woo, Craftsman Excavating Machine Operator, Passed)

You got 61 points.

I just made the cut.

Ms. Lee, why isn't Joo Ah sweeping the floors?

How on earth should I know?

I can't believe it.

She took the money that is off limits.

This isn't her first time though.

The way I see it is that...

you shouldn't have left the money at home.

I know I only have myself to blame for this,

but who knew she'd steal it from the inside of my blanket?

Is she a professional thief?

How could she even rip my blanket apart?

Am I supposed to call that my daughter?

I knew this would happen the moment she showed up...

with that corny looking childhood friend of hers.

She had fallen for him way too hard.

I can't shave her head and ground her...

or break her leg and keep her home.

What should I do with her?

Instead of being interested in social issues,

she follows pretty men.

Men being pretty are of no use.

Welcome.

I saw your youngest daughter leave all dolled up.

She left?

When? How long has it been?

I saw her about two hours ago.

I can't believe this.

I dunked all her clothes in the bathtub...

so that she'd stay home.

I soaked all her clothes in water,

so what did she put on?

She had on pretty nice clothes.

I thought you were promoting her next month,

but she's rarely anywhere around the salon.

You tell me.

Arguing with her...

makes me grow older by the minute.

All right. What program should I help you with today?

Oh, please. All I want is a perm.

Still...

I see a lot of gray hairs today.

You should get a dye job first...

and have the perm next week.

Also, we just received a new hair solution product.

I'll sneak it in for you for free.

Because of your so-called freebies,

I end up doing more than I want.

But look at this. Thanks to me, your hair shines.

There aren't many women at your age...

with hair this silky.

I fall for it again even though I know you're lying.

You may not be lucky with daughters,

but you are with employees.

My oldest daughter is not like her sister.

Of course not.

Chi Woo's nothing but sweet and generous.

She has a decent husband...

and elegant in-laws...

who have money. She has everything.

She also gives me pocket money all the time...

so that my purse is always full.

Also, she's moving to...

a mansion in a fancy neighborhood.

- Really? - Just don't ask.

You have no idea just how spacious the yard is.

You can hold a sports event...

and even throw a party on the side.

- Apron. - Just a moment.

All right, here you go.

I'll give you the premium treatment for free today.

- Thank you. - Brush!

Ta-da!

Oh, my. Is that Mount Nam?

- That's right. - My gosh.

What's this?

I can see everything.

How can this be?

How high up are we?

My gosh, look at these marble floors.

I have never seen such a thing.

Do you like it that much?

Are you sure I can stay here?

This is nothing really.

If the movie hits it big,

I'll be able to afford an apartment...

with a view of the Han River.

Still, your company must have budget limits.

I know I'm your old friend,

but isn't this too much?

It's not because we're old friends.

It's because I love you.

Oh gosh!

If the movie is funded this week,

production will begin early next week.

Finding you as its leading lady...

was the best move ever.

Anyway,

I hope investors will send checks soon.

How much do you need?

Investors are reading the scenario,

so I'll hear from them soon.

Dong Geon, I should know how things are going.

I don't want to burden you in any way.

Dong Geon, don't be like this.

I'm the leading lady of this movie.

I'm not a fraud who...

rips money off his leading actress.

Don't ever mention it again.

Dong Geon.

Don't worry about anything...

and just study the scenario.

Okay, I'll practice my acting and start losing weight.

Why would you lose weight?

You're beautiful the way you are.

Really?

Still, I should lose some for the movie.

You don't have to. You look stunning already.

Still, I should be able to tuck my shirt in.

Joo Ah, are you going to upset me like this?

Lose any weight at all, and I won't see you again.

You'll live here once production starts.

We'll throw a party that day.

I can't wait.

By the way, how much is the place?

Hello,

- Ms. Choi! - My goodness.

- Let me carry that. - No, it's all right.

Are you coming back from somewhere?

I should wander around the lobby whenever I'm sleepy.

I'm now wide awake.

Thank you.

I see you've already memorized my name.

Yes, I memorized it from the organization chart.

Didn't you memorize mine first...

because you heard I'm the most talented?

No, not really.

I see you're an honest man.

I've been told that not being able to lie is my flaw.

Why is that a flaw?

It's actually the opposite,

Mr. Im Joo Chul.

So why are you out here?

I thought I should secure the perimeter...

which is why I was walking around the building.

- My gosh. - Yi Yoo.

I added a shot.

You like intense coffee, right?

- What brings you by? - To bring you coffee.

I should get back to work then.

Did you come all the way here just to give me coffee?

Do you think I would've?

You said you wouldn't come by the office,

but I see that was a lie.

That's how much I wanted to see you.

Hold on. Give me that.

- You're holding my hand. - I know.

Just five minutes.

Let's gaze at each other for just five minutes.
