Original subtitles

[Episode 13]

I don�t know if you can understand or not.

When I was young, one of my ears didn�t work that well.

Everyone made fun of me for being deaf.

I was left out of everything.

But.

By not being able to hear, I could concentrate better.

Also,

I could hear sounds that other people couldn�t.

That�s what he� said.

It didn�t matter if it was at school or somewhere else,

He always had a smile.

I could hear that behind that smile hid

A sound of cold loneliness.

Behind his laughter there were tears.

The hidden sounds of crying,

I could hear all of that.

I don�t have any fate with him,

So I won�t return to his side.

But to me,

You and he mean different things.

If between you and me there�s the sense of a man and a woman,

He and I are mutual supports,

With the sense of being twins siblings.

After a while, he�ll leave.

All he wants is,

Just up until he dies.

For what little time he has left,

All he asks is that I stay by his side and be with him more.

If I can�t do as he asks, I..

Without him, I..

I might not be able to love you anymore, Tae Hoon sshi.

Can you understand what I feel?

I can�t.

It�s impossible for me to understand.

What�s wrong?

I want to get off the car and feel the breeze

And also let Hye Jin see some of Jeju�s scenery.

You get off too.

We should�ve come earlier,

The fresh air and water also helps to regain health.

Hye Jin, put your hat on.

Let�s get off the car. Come on.

Keep your hat on!

Hurry.

Come.

Hye Jin, take a deep breath.

It�s the Jeju�s sea breeze. How is it? Fresh, huh?

Mmhmm.

Hye Jin, stand next to Daddy!

One, two, three!

Let�s stay here a couple of days.

Stay with your parents a few days, sort out your thoughts and feelings.

If that�s enough, then stay a few days longer.

I can wait.

You were alone with a man for two days and two nights.

Although nothing happened,

I�ve had a hard time accepting it.

Please forgive me.

I�ll wait for you.

In the past nine years,

I�ve been by your side, watching you forget him.

If I wait a little bit longer, then you�ll be completely and totally my own woman.

I will wait.

I�m leaving.

The last thing you said,

Was that true?

What?

You said�

You loved me.

Do you think it�s not?

Get on.

I said we were going to the fair.

Get on.

Hold on tight.

I�m not sure what department it is,

He�s my son�s friend. He�s a doctor here.

Is this the Suh-Yeon University Auxiliary Hospital?

Kim Byeong-Chan.

Is there a doctor here named Kim Byeong-Chan?

Ma�am.

Here he is.

That�s him.

Thank you.

Sit here, I�

I need to ask you something.

How should I put this?

My Ji Seok, he..

Um..

Cancer.

Do you know cancer?

He has that.

Did you know too?

Mmhmm.

Really?

Um..

But.

He went to Jeju.

What�d he go to Jeju for?

He should be in a hospital getting treatment. Why go there?

And it�s so cold, too.

Is there no hope?

So he went?

Hurry and answer me.

I�m going crazy, don�t keep your mouth shut.

Is it?

Is there no hope?

Will he die?

Will my Ji Seok die?

Hurry and say something!

Yes.

Ma�am.

I�d guessed it too.

Okay, go and do your work.

When you have time, come visit often.

Bastard.

Why did he..

Why did my Ji Seok become like this?

You have to treat his sickness!

With you at the hospital, this shouldn�t have happened. Bastard!!

How could you�?

How could you do this to me? Bastard!

Ma�am.

Ji Seok!

Ji Seok!

What am I going to do?

My Ji Seok..

What am I going to do?

Is this the school that Mommy and Daddy went to?

No, this is the school Daddy went to.

Then how about Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy went to the girls� school over there.

She was the school flower at that school.

School flower?

Yeah.

Just like Hye Jin, she was prettiest girl in school.

Mommy�s still very pretty now.

Well, of course. She�s still beautiful.

Refined, elegant, handsome, and still beautiful too.

Hye Jin. Remember what Daddy says.

When you�re twenty years old,

Tell Mommy for me.

What?

Tell her "Sorry."

Mommy is still the most beautiful in the world.

Okay, I know.

-Hello, teacher! -Hello, teacher!

Sorry.

Sorry, I came late!

Run, run!

Dad!

Oh, why are you here?

I just wanted to come.

It�s so rare for you to come,

Go home and spend time with your mother.

Your mother misses you a lot everyday.

Hurry home.

I don�t know why you guys have been fighting,

Tae Hoon came all the way over here to apologize to you.

Don�t be so harsh as to let him go home alone.

Daddy.

What�s wrong?

Have you met the Hyun Ji Seok from when I was younger?

Why are you asking that all of a sudden?

It�s nothing.

I suddenly thought of it now that I�m back in Jeju.

I used to sneak out to meet his father a couple of times behind your grandmother�s back.

Back then, how was he?

What?

Hyun Ji Seok?

How could he be? He was just a little kid.

Hurry home.

Do you have to fix it now?

You can wait until after class to fix it.

It�s already time for class.

Then why don�t you go in first?

Do you like going to class or do you like being with me?

Do you want me to keep fixing it all the way until evening study hall?

Hurry and fix it.

Mi Yeon.

My family was the original owner of Jeju Island,

But do you know why I�m living in a rental home near the school?

Why?

My dad usually doesn�t hit me that hard,

But each year there are two days when he�ll beat me up really bad.

My dad�s birthday, and my birthday.

My dad was abandoned by my grandmother.

So whenever his birthday comes, he goes crazy.

He hates me for being born, and beats me up for the entire day.

Then, my mom can�t even stop him.

He has to beat me until daybreak.

But,

After getting beaten like that for eighteen years,

I started asking myself why I was born,

I thought I couldn�t just get beat up like this.

So last year I left my house and moved out to live.

I probably can�t live life like a normal person.

Get married, raise children.

But,

Now that you�re here.

There�s hope for me too.

What?

Get married?

I always think about you,

If I raise kids then I�ll use you as the model.

If I get tired,

Then I�ll think about your smile.

That way,

I might be able to live like a normal person.

Thank you, Mi Yeon.

I don�t know what you�re talking about.

It�s cold, isn�t it?

Do you want some tea to warm you up?

How much is this?

400.

Before when I went to school it was 100.

Where�s yours?

Hye Jin can�t finish hers.

It�s so cold.

Daddy!

Hmm?

Hurry and put your coat on.

Let�s go take a walk.

How about Mommy?

Mommy�s always on the phone.

Hurry, hurry!

Okay, get inside.

The material that the assistant manager has received might be missing something.

We�ve already agreed to only provide the facility.

But after a lot of the artists found out that it was a charity exhibit,

One after another, they made donations.

Hye Jin said she was bored.

I�m going to take her out for a while.

No, there were some who contributed their work,

And there were some who just donated money.

We�re not too sure yet about the exact number of people.

Let�s go.

Mommy, we�re going to take a walk!

We�re leaving!

Wow, it�s a heater!

Welcome!

Please have a seat here.

Um, I�m sorry.

Did this place switch owners?

Which owner do you man?

Aigoo, this place has switched owners so many times.

His name is Professor Go Wan Beon.

Oh!! Professor Go!

Professor Go quit a long time ago!

After making the wrong guarantee, the shop was detained,

He moved into the village down there.

Let me think, that was..

That was already ten years back.

Is your mother still healthy?

Yes.

Do you come back to Jeju often?

No.

True,

She doesn�t have much of a reason to come back.

Every teacher

Always misses his or her pupils,

Wondering how they�re getting along now in life,

But I especially missed you.

If I thought of you every so often.

Unknowingly, my heart will ache.

It�s like having a splinter in the palm of your hand.

Mi Yeon�s deceased grandmother once said

People who are not destined to be together,

In the end they can only separate through life or death.

Thank you.

To see you so happy, thank you.

What�s your name?

My name is Hye Jin. Hyun Hye Jin.

Hye Jin?

What a pretty name.

Thank you.

But, how come your teeth fall out?

�Little sparrows who have lost their front teeth shouldn�t get near to the well water.� You know?

Why is the company asking me to resign? What did I do?

Then, do you think that it�s nothing?

Just as originally planned, Manager Choi will be sent to San Francisco.

But you�d already completed the transfer.

If you don�t go to San Francisco, there�s no place for you here.

What is there for you to do when you come to work?

I haven�t yet completed the transfer.

I hope that I can..

What do you take this company as?

You take these company matters as child�s play.

You should also be clear about how many expenses are paid for each transfer.

Each time a representative is switched,

The customers who reclaim their investments don�t calculate that amount.

We�d already persuaded them,

And now you say you want to start again.

Then the reflection on the company will suffer too much!

That will be up to me to resolve.

Your name is on the employee transfer list.

Before you�re fired by the company, just voluntarily resign.

I hear that you..

Want to take a wife who�s had an affair and run away to San Francisco.

I always used to commend you for knowing what�s what,

What do take the company as?

Did you think that you could stay?

Leave.

Hello.

It�s me.

Mi Yeon will stay here with me for a couple of days before she goes back.

Don�t worry too much.

She�s the only child in the family.

And when she was younger, her ears weren�t too good, so we�ve spoiled her.

She�s too stubborn.

I�ll convince her to go home.

Besides, arguments in the bedroom are resolved in the bed, right?

Mom.

Yes, go ahead.

As long as Mi Yeon comes back, it�s fine.

Nothing else matters.

Mommy!

Take care!

Yes, you take care too.

Who�s that?

-Dad. -Huh?

It�s rather cold. Hurry on in.

Why�d you buy these for Mom?

It�s been so long since I came back to visit. I couldn�t just come empty-handed.

How is it? Is it okay?

Is the color too bright?

It�s very pretty.

This one�s for Dad.

Thank you.

Is it not to your taste?

When has your father ever said anything was good or bad?

At this degree, he�s already very happy.

She quit her job. She came back to rest.

Recently she had to manage career and household.

She must�ve been so tired, and she can�t manage to get pregnant.

So I think she had a huge fight with son-in-law Kim.

Although son-in-law Kim has a good heart,

But he�s doesn�t always listen to his wife about everything.

Don�t worry about her. Just let her rest a few days and then go back.

Um..

Hyun Sang Wan�s son,

The one who�s one or two years older than Mi Yeon.

That child Ji Seok.

I heard that he got cancer.

The hospital has give up on treatment.

How unfortunate, around the same age as Mi Yeon.

Come on out. It�s time to eat.

If it weren�t for that person being here, I..

I might not have been able to fall in love with Tae Hoon.

Can you understand me?

Ji Seok.. have you seen him?

Dad.

That�s true, there must be so much to say.

There must be so many words hidden in your heart.

Next time,

We�ll talk next time when you won�t cry when you speak.

Tell me later. when you can calm your heart and talk.

That day will come.

It will come.

A person�s heart and a person�s life is uncontrollable

It�s not like you don�t know that.

Because you can�t do as your heart please,

So you�re sad.

What God can give him,

Is only the pain that he�s able to endure.

No matter what,

You and that guy,

God especially watches over you.

At such an age,

How could that be?

How?

Tomorrow are we going to the mountains again?

No.

Are we going to the beach then?

No.

Then where are we going?

The place where Daddy used to live.

The place where Daddy went to school, where he used to play when he was younger.

Why?

Because this is Daddy�s hometown.

Do you know what a hometown is, Hye Jin?

Go to sleep.

If you sleep earlier, you can wake up earlier and then go play earlier.

Mmhmm.

We should�ve come back earlier.

I feel like you�re too tired.

I should�ve been good to you earlier.

If only I�d cherished you earlier.

Sorry.

Because of that unnecessary pride.

In the time left,

Can�t you give me a chance?

We�ve never

Lived like a good husband and wife.

So I can�t just let you go like this.

You don�t know my heart either.

We�ve lived together for so long,

The woman who had your child,

You don�t know how much she loves you.

The words that I haven�t been able to say for so long,

I�m sorry.

I�m just now saying them.

I love you.

I love you.

What�s going on?

When you begged me to allow you to transfer to San Francisco,

Wasn�t it very urgent?

I�m sorry.

Your name is on the transfer list.

The transfer can be changed.

If you have a reason then you can also not go.

During the transfer there was a loss of capital.

There will still be a capital loss no matter who is transferred.

Did you give someone a handle against yourself?

That�s right, you�re good at your job, smart, and kind-hearted.

You�ll be manipulated against by those people who deceive and cheat.

A lot of people will be eyeing your position.

If I�m not an idiot,

Then I won�t take something useful to me and just hand it over to someone else for free.

Should I give you some vacation time?

What?

After you take a few days off, come back and work.

Go travel with your wife.

Give her a good impression.

Don�t you want to?

I want to continue working.

Now my job is the only thing I can do.

Guest.

It�s time to close.

Okay, I know.

I say, after you get the streaky pork, shouldn�t you

Senior.

Hold on.

Hey, Hwal Sook shi.

You�ve called just at the right time, where are you right now?

It�s so late and you still haven�t eaten yet?

Since I haven�t had enough beer money lately, so I don�t eat rice or meat.

I start with beer, then white spirits, then whiskey, then vodka.

The bar too,

I don�t know where all the regulars have gone.

Lately it�s all been young people.

So young, and they call me ajumma.

Pisses me off. If I�d gotten married when I was younger then I might�ve had a son his age.

Who does he think he�s hitting on?

Do you know how scary young people are these days?

They�ll grab people�s hands the first time they meet.

After just one drink, they�ll be all over you.

They�ll say �Cutie� and kiss your face.

Today I almost got kissed on the lips.

That would�ve been my first kiss.

I can�t just let anyone take it away.

You�ve never been kissed?

Nope.

Haven�t you ever had a girlfriend?

Even when you were in the army?

Do I have to count that too?

That�s different from losing your first kiss.

That�s not someone you truly love.

You can�t just kiss anyone.

I say, then

You�ve never been in love?

Not even just a one-sided crush?

Oh, I�ve had crushes.

Haven�t I told you before?

Mi Yeon sshi.

No, that counts too.

There are also girls who have gotten close to me because they liked me.

But you can�t just open your heart that easily.

Now I still want to consider my studies as my lover.

Until one day,

Like a spring breeze melting away snow,

A woman who can melt open my heart comes close to me.

Mm-hmm.

It�s me.

Mi Yeon has left.

She�ll be there at 8.

Go pick her up.

Ji Seok is still sleeping.

So we weren�t able to visit many places.

We�ll leave when Ji Seok wakes up.

A 7:00 flight.

Daddy�s a lazy bone. Get up, hurry and get up!

Hye Jin.

Yes.

What time?

When you come back buy some herbal medicine.

Dad.

I�m sorry.

I�m always crying.

I thought I wasn�t going to cry again.

Crying doesn�t always mean sadness.

Laughter doesn�t always mean happiness.

If crying can make you feel better,

Then cry.

The bus is here.

Get on.

Mi Yeon!

Mi Yeon!

Wow, they�re windmills!

There�s some over there too!

Hye Jin! No, come here!

Hubby.

Don�t go either. It�s dangerous there.

Come back.

You take Hye Jin back first.

I�m going to stay awhile.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger.

Take Hye Jin back first.

I�ll be back very soon.

I feel really stuffy after sleeping so long.

After I stay awhile I�ll go back very soon.

Come back soon!

Jeju Island,

Is completely memories of you.

What should I do?

I�

Don�t want to die.

Mi Yeon.

Do you want me to tell you a secret?

I�

Actually�

Am sort of scared.

Very scared.

If I remembered you and then left,

I thought I wouldn�t be as scared.

If I didn�t love you,

Could I continue living?

I said I�d use you and death,

To make an exchange.

Now.

I don�t want to die.

Mi Yeon.

I don�t want to die.

Where will I go after I die?

Who will be there?

What�s wrong?

Does it hurt?

No.

I�m fine.

Ji Seok.

Hyun Ji Seok!

Wake up.

Daddy!

Hyun Ji Seok!

Wake up! Ji Seok!

Help him. Please help call an ambulance.

Hurry and help him.

It�s okay.

I�m here.

It�s okay.

It�s okay.

It�s okay.

Help him.

It�s okay.

I� do you love me?

Are you going to by that man�s side?

I want to make peace with him, and live happily.

There isn�t much time left.

I�ve always stood by Mi Yeon�s side, watching her, so I know

What place your husband has in Mi Yeon�s heart.

She�ll never let him die by himself.

Right now, you too are my enemy.

Leave.

Before I throw you out myself.

I won�t see Mi Yeon again.

I just want to put her in my heart.
