Original subtitles

It's called a melanoma,

a malignant tumor that forms from abnormal melanocytes.

I'm going away.

I'm going to leave you, Song Ju,

and everyone I know.

(Episode 17)

Song Ju, I'm going away.

Please don't look for me.

I just can't abandon Tae Hwa.

So I'm leaving.

It's been enough for me.

I was so happy to have met you again.

I'll never forget you.

Goodbye.

It's going to happen eventually.

We'll have to part sometime.

We all have to part ways in the end.

- Song Ju! What are you doing here? - Where's Tae Hwa?

Why do you want to see him?

He should be asleep in the attic.

What in the world is going on?

Goodness! He must have run away.

His clothes and painting supplies are gone too!

Jeong Seo's things are gone too.

How could this have happened?

Didn't you hear from Jeong Seo about what happened?

Actually,

Jeong Seo did tell us that she was going away with Tae Hwa,

but I told her many times not to do it!

Honey, what are we going to do now?

Tae Hwa.

This is where you ran away to?

It's quite nice here with all these big windows.

But isn't it a little too big for just the two of us?

Go back.

To where?

Are you telling me to go back to that horrific house?

Tae Hwa.

I'll go if you go.

I can go anywhere as long as I'm with you.

But I won't go if you won't.

Go! Please just go!

I want to be alone! So leave!

Pretend like I'm not here.

I won't talk to you or look at you.

I'll just sit here painting.

If you don't leave me alone, I'm going to disappear again.

Is that what you want?

Do whatever you want. Then I'll just go find you again.

Are you all right?

Don't touch me!

Don't be a fool!

It's Song Ju who you're running away from, not me!

I don't know why you're trying to leave him,

but I'll help you to hide.

Why would you do that?

Why would you disappear just to help me to hide?

Because...

I'm your brother.

I have to keep my sister safe.

So let me stay with you.

Do you want me here or not?

Do you want me here or not?

Tae Hwa.

To be honest,

I was so afraid.

I was so afraid all by myself.

Tae Hwa.

I'm scared.

I'm so scared.

Don't be silly.

You're a grown-up now.

I've looked for her in all the possible places,

but she's nowhere to be found.

I'll keep searching.

You don't have to do that.

Jeong Seo will be back.

She'll be back.

I know she will.

(Jeong Seo loves Song Ju)

Song Ju.

Please don't wait for me.

No matter how much I miss you, I'm not going back.

I'm all right.

I really am.

Jeong Seo and Tae Hwa have run away from home.

Pardon?

Didn't you know?

I thought that Song Ju has told you.

You mean that Song Ju knows about it?

Yes.

He's probably looking all over for her.

I think it was quite a shock to him.

My husband feels awful about the whole thing.

With all the trouble that's been going on at home,

he thinks that we should postpone the wedding.

There were already so many rumors about the engagement.

If we put off the wedding too, it'll stir up more rumors.

That's what we're afraid of as well.

Let's go ahead with the wedding as planned.

How did it go?

You must be fated to be with Song Ju.

Things couldn't go any better!

So it's gone well?

Of course!

You're going to be busy from now on...

with all the wedding preparations.

For something like that, I could stay up all night and day...

and not be tired.

Thank you, Mom.

By the way,

do you think that Jeong Seo really left with Tae Hwa?

It doesn't matter.

This is your chance to win Song Ju's heart.

- You know that, right? - Of course.

Why did the clothing sales drop from last year?

It must be due to the recession.

If that's the case, wouldn't SAFE MALL's sales increase...

with its low-cost merchandise?

Report to me on the sales records of all the shops by tomorrow.

What brings you here?

I just stopped by on my way somewhere.

You have a meeting with Mr. Kang at 11.

You should get going now.

- Please have the car ready. - All right.

I'll see you later then.

Mother.

Please don't worry.

Whether it's love or work, I'm not going to give up.

I can handle both.

(Song Ju loves Jeong Seo)

I think the pipe is clogged!

Is there a toolbox here?

Yes.

Are you all right?

- Yes, I'm fine. - Stay still.

I have to clean it up.

I'll do it.

I can do it!

Leave it! I'll do it!

- I can do it myself! - I told you I'll do it!

How can you clean it when you can't even see?

When did you find that out?

About what?

How long have you known about it?

Jeong Seo.

Was it entertaining?

What were you thinking, watching me stumbling around?

Did you think I deserved it for leaving you for Song Ju?

How could you be so cruel?

Who are you to make me feel this way?

Who are you to make me feel so miserable?

How could you?

How could you be so cruel?

How could you do this to me?

Let's go back. Let's go get you treated, all right?

If you receive treatment, you'll be able to live.

What's wrong with not being able to see?

Even if you couldn't see, you could still be happy!

You need surgery before it's too late!

But I could still die.

That's why you need it!

I wanted to live as long as possible,

even if it's for one more day!

Tae Hwa.

Please don't tell Song Ju.

I don't want to be a burden on him.

I don't want to get in the way of his future.

I want him to remember only good things about me.

So please don't tell him. You won't tell him, will you?

You won't, right? Answer me.

You won't tell him, right?

Tell me that you won't tell him.

Hello?

Is that you, Jeong Seo?

Jeong Seo.

It's you, isn't it?

It's you, right? Where are you right now?

Jeong Seo! Jeong Seo, tell me!

Jeong Seo.

Jeong Seo!

Where are you? Jeong Seo!

Jeong Seo! Wait!

I'm sorry, Song Ju.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Leave it alone!

What if Song Ju stops by?

He might notice if he sees anything different!

I don't want him to know that I'm here.

I'm sorry, Tae Hwa.

And...

thank you.

I'll be right back.

Where are you going?

I won't go far.

Sit down.

Be careful.

Do you need anything?

No.

I'll be back soon.

Song Ju.

Jeong Seo.

Where are you?

Song Ju!

Song Ju.

Song Ju.

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Song Ju! Don't go!

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Don't go!

Song Ju...

Song Ju!

Don't go!

Song Ju! Don't go!

Song Ju!

What are you doing out in the cold?

You dropped your shoe.

I looked everywhere for you.

Tae Hwa.

To tell you the truth, my vision has been getting worse.

Pretty soon, I won't be able to see the ocean.

Don't say that.

You'll be able to see it.

I miss Song Ju.

I'm an awful person.

How could I talk about Song Ju in front of you?

If you miss him, just say it.

And if you want to see him, just say it.

Let's go see him tomorrow.

You know that I can't.

I know it's hard for you,

but it must be just as hard for him.

What do you like about him anyway?

He's handsome.

I'm much more handsome than him.

And I'm probably taller too.

I don't think so.

Song Ju is probably about this much taller than you.

But I have longer legs than him.

I don't think so.

Then what about my arms? Aren't they more muscular than his?

You're right! They are more muscular than his.

That's it.

It's nice to see you smiling again.

Don't cry, Jeong Seo.

I'm here for you!

(Would you please do something for me?)

(Would you please hold me?)

Then you wouldn't be sad even if you couldn't see me anymore?

You wouldn't cry even if I died?

That's right. I wouldn't be sad at all.

What are you so happy about?

I'm happy to see Song Ju again.

You can't tell that anything's wrong, can you?

Do you think Song Ju will be able to tell?

Do you think he'll notice that I can't see very well?

Of course not.

That's good.

Tae Hwa.

I don't think I can do this.

What if he notices?

He would be in so much pain.

I'll just get a glimpse of him from far away.

I should still be able to see him, right?

I could still see him for now.

Right?

Are you sure you just want a glimpse?

Yes. He must be looking around the park now.

I should be able to see him without him noticing.

All right, then go ahead.

Where are you going?

I have someone I need to meet.

I'll see you back here in an hour.

All right. See you later.

How much would the surgery cost?

It will be around 10,000 dollars.

You'll have to ask the management office for an exact quote.

Will she be able to live if she receives the surgery?

I can't guarantee that.

As I have told the patient,

even if the surgery is successful, it may not completely cure her.

How long will she be able to see?

Considering the rate of degeneration,

she may be able to see to some extent for 2 to 3 months.

But in her case, her corneas have already been gravely damaged...

from the car accident five years ago.

The car accident?

Yes.

Her corneas are very weak from the trauma,

so she will soon lose her vision regardless of the tumor's growth.

Let go! Let go of me!

What do you think you're doing?

- What's wrong with you? - You!

I'm going to kill you and Tae Mi Ra.

I'll kill you both!

Let go of me!

I'll show you what it feels like...

to have a terrible thing done to you!

Tae Hwa, please!

I'm your sister, Yu Ri!

That's right.

You were my sister at one point.

When we lived were poor and lived in a cramped house,

you were a human!

But you're not anymore.

That's not true! No one treated me like a human back then,

not even Mom and Dad!

But it's different now. People finally treat me well.

They don't look down on me for not being well-off!

Tae Hwa, what's gotten into you?

You're with Jeong Seo, aren't you?

Did something happen to her?

If anything goes wrong with her, I'm going to kill you.

Even if she forgives you,

I won't forgive you.

This is Han Tae Hwa.

How much will you give me for more imitation paintings?

I need payment in advance.

I want no less than 30,000 dollars when they're finished.

I'll wait for your call.

One more round.

Okay.

Okay!

Okay!

- In 1, 2, 3. - In 1, 2, 3.

- Are you all right? - Are you okay?

Jeong Seo!

Jeong Seo!

It's strange.

When I close my eyes, I feel like I can hear Song Ju's voice.

(Song Ju loves Jeong Seo)

Mom. I think there's something wrong with Jeong Seo.

Tae Hwa came to me.

He said he'd kill me if anything happens to Jeong Seo.

Doesn't it sound like there's something wrong?

It sounded like Jeong Seo was ill.

Why didn't you ask him if she's terminally ill...

like her mother was?

He wouldn't tell me.

But it really seemed like he was insane.

It seemed like he was really going to kill me!

Why do you care about what happened to Jeong Seo?

She's not here anymore!

Now, all we have to do is to get rid of Tae Hwa...

so that he can't show up at your wedding.

But what about Dad?

He knows about what happened too.

Listen to me.

Whatever Song Ju says, you just have to ignore it and push on.

That's right.

I'll see you at home.

Yes?

Han Cheol Su has agreed to paint for 30,000 dollars.

For 30,000 dollars?

Tell him that the deal is closed but that he'd better hurry.

I want the paintings within the next three days.

Tae Hwa.

What are you painting in such a rush?

You haven't slept in days.

I'm painting your portrait.

Can you make sure that I'm smiling in it?

And make me look as pretty as possible.

What are you thinking of using it for?

If I die,

I'd need a portrait for my funeral.

Are you telling me to paint your funeral portrait right now?

I'm going to need one eventually.

Why not have you paint it for me?

You're not going to die!

Do you think I'm going to let that happen?

- If you receive the surgery... - Tae Hwa.

Do you think I'm going to live just because you tell me I am?

The doctors told me that I don't have long to live.

You're the only one who denies it.

I'm not afraid of dying at all.

But...

I'm so scared of not being able to see.

Everything will get blurry and disappear bit by bit,

and I won't be able to see things no matter how much I want to.

That's what I'm more afraid of.

Jeong Seo...

That's enough.

I'm going inside.

Are you all right?

Do you really have to go?

You'll be all right on your own.

There's food on the table, so make sure to eat.

And stay inside until I get back, all right?

I won't take too long.

Tae Hwa. Why is it so dark outside?

It's very foggy outside today,

so that's why it's so dark.

I'll see you soon. Go inside now.

Be careful. I'm leaving now.

Tae Hwa!

Don't take it too long!

I will!

Make it quick.

Okay!

Tae Hwa! Don't come too late, all right?

Fine!

Give me the paintings.

Where's the money?

I won't have to check them, will I?

Go ahead if you want to.

People should trust each other. Don't you think?

Hold it right there!

Han Cheol Su!

Stop! Get him!

Go after him!

Stop right there, Han Cheol Su! Get him!

Get him!

Don't let him get away! Stop right there!

Stop!

Han Cheol Su!

Han Cheol Su!

Tae Hwa!

Jeong Seo!

What's taking you so long?

Don't worry. I'm on my way. I'll be there soon.

Do you need anything? Is there anything you're craving?

No. Just come back as soon as you can.

I'm scared.

It's cold, and I don't want to be alone.

What are you so scared about? Stop acting like a crybaby.

You'll be here soon, won't you?

Hurry up.

I will. I'll be there soon.

Wait a little longer. You can do that, right?

Han Cheol Su!

Han Cheol Su!

Stop right there!

No! Let go!

Let go of me! Wait!

Wait a minute!

There's someone who's waiting for me!

She needs me!

- Let go! - I have to go!

- Get up! - Let me go!

I have to go. Let go!

Let go...

Let go of me!

Let go!

Let go!

- There's someone waiting for me! - Come on!

She's waiting for me!

Get in!

No...

No!

Let's go!

This is Cha Song Ju.

What's the matter?

How old are you?

- When is your birthday? - October 28, 1977.

Mr. Jang. I need to talk to him in private for a moment.

Are you with Jeong Seo?

Yes.

Where is she?

Listen to me carefully.

The reason I called for you is Jeong Seo.

Jeong Seo has...

ocular cancer.

I confirmed it at the hospital.

You're lying.

I wish I were lying too.

At this rate, it won't be long until she loses her vision.

I don't know...

how long it'll be until she can't see anymore.

It could be today or tomorrow.

I wanted to pay for her surgery...

to try to save her.

That's how I got into this mess.

I can't be of any help to Jeong Seo.

Song Ju, please.

Please save Jeong Seo.

Please save Jeong Seo.

Where is she right now?

She's at the beach house...

by herself.

I'm sure that you know Jeong Seo better than me.

If you're happy, Jeong Seo will be happy,

and if you're unhappy, she'll be unhappy too.

All I want is...

for Jeong Seo to be happy.

Come to the beach house when you're released.

I'll wait for you there. She needs you.

Please take care of the rest. I'm sorry about this.

If you help release him again, it may put you in trouble.

It doesn't matter. Please take care of it as soon as possible.

At this rate, it won't be long...

until she loses her vision.

I don't know how long it'll be until she can't see anymore.

It could be today or tomorrow.

Tae Hwa.

The customer's phone is turned off.

Please leave a voicemail...

Tae Hwa, where are you?

I've thought about it,

and I want to see Song Ju.

Before I lose my vision completely, I want to see him...

even if it's just one more time.

Will you take me to see him?

Tae Hwa, come back soon.

Please hurry, all right?

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

I can't see!

Song Ju!

I can't see! Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

Song Ju! I can't see!

Song Ju! I can't see anything.

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

I can't see!

Song Ju!

Song Ju!

I can't see anything!

Song Ju! I really can't see!

Song Ju!

- Jeong Seo! - Song Ju!

Jeong Seo!

Song Ju!

I can't see anymore!

It's so dark! I can't see a thing!

What took you so long?

Now, I can't Song Ju anymore!

What am I going to do?

Song Ju?

It's you, isn't it?

Jeong Seo!

Will you marry me?

We've put it off for too long.

Are you going to make me wait even longer?

It has taken too long for the love of my life...

to join me by my side.

She's on her way here right now.

I hope that no one, not anyone, will get in the way...

of our marriage.

- Let go of me! No! - Mom!

- Mom! - Let me go!

Mom!

- Jeong Seo. - Put me down!

This is your wedding.
