Original subtitles

The feelings associated with like and dislike

are produced by the amygdaloid nucleus in the limbic system.

The Amygdaloid nucleus is also responsible for

the fight-or-flight response and aggressive behavior.

When you fall in love,

you also become more belligerent.

Hello, I tried to be on time.

Please take a seat.

-I went ahead and ordered tea. -Okay.

-A bottle of sparkling water please. -Yes.

You can never judge a book by its cover.

Who would've thought that you would become involved

in such a messy scandal?

The first thing needed in a conversation is respect.

I respect you, Ms. Yun.

The scandal that you speak of

is the result of Seo-u's misunderstanding.

I really don't want anyone getting hurt because of this incident.

I can handle the consequences alone.

Are you telling me that you are going to protect Hye-jeong?

She will most likely get expelled.

You will also be held responsible.

If that ever happens, I will sue

the school committee and Seo-u for defamation.

Mr. Hong!

It won't be good for Seo-u either

if things get out of hand.

Even so, I cannot allow both of you

to stay at the school.

NAMYANG GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL

Hey!

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

Mr. Hong.

I really liked you.

A "doctor-turned-teacher" sounds great.

Then, you make me throw that away.

Once I leave, I'd like

the substitute English teacher to take over my class.

Why?

Oh, no! You should go to the hospital!

I'm okay.

You can't tell Mr. Hong why we met up.

He has to know how hard you tried for him.

-Sun-hui. -Yes?

My dear friend, Sun-hui.

I want to be a good person.

I want to live as a good person.

I don't want you or Mr. Hong to be involved in this any further.

Hurry and get away from me when you can.

Tell me your parents' number, not your grandmother's.

I don't have it.

She's a student at our school and she's quite a troublemaker.

Arson is a crime.

Then what will happen to us?

What do you mean? You'll go to jail.

Since you're over 14, you'll be sentenced to imprisonment.

Even though it was an accident?

The oil barrel must have fallen and caused the fire.

How can an oil barrel fall by itself?

Someone has to tip it over and light it on fire.

May I take my daughter home?

Yes, go ahead.

What about Hye-jeong?

She doesn't even have a guardian. She'll be charged with arson.

No, I want to stay with her!

You're being foolish. Let's go.

Hye-jeong!

Go home with your dad. I started all of this.

It should all end with me.

No, I did it. Hye-jeong isn't responsible.

Children have a tendency to do anything for their friends.

She doesn't know what she's talking about.

-Let's go. -No, Hye-jeong!

-Hye-jeong! -Come on!

Dad!

Hye-jeong, I'll come back for you!

Dad! Let me go! No, I can't go!

It looks so cool when you take all the blame.

But...

Reality is different.

Hi.

-Welcome to my world! -Be quiet.

You'll wake up the whole village.

Calm down, Baek-gu. It's okay.

A 2nd-year resident took time off of her horrible schedule to see you.

Goodness. Don't do that.

I'm so pleased that you quit.

Did you quit to go to the States with your father?

Have you eaten?

Are you cooking for me?

I'm just serving you whatever's in the fridge.

It's the same thing.

Don't.

Be mine. I'll treat you well.

Who is it?

I'll kill them.

Hello?

Mr. Hong! It's me, Sun-hui.

-Why are you calling so late? -I'm sorry, but it was so urgent.

Hye-jeong's at the police station.

Seo-u's hurt and hospitalized.

What happened?

NAMYANGJU GUKIL MEDICAL CENTER

Hello, Doctor. Hello, Ms. Yun.

What on earth happened?

What did Hye-jeong say?

I came here first.

She tried to kill me.

-Seo-u-- -I liked you.

I respected you.

Because of you...

I liked going to school because you were there.

Why did you disappoint me?

Why did you like me and feel disappointed at me?

Why can't it be me?

Why can it be her, and not me?

Why do you like her, and not me?

Do you even know

that you're pretty and smart?

Get some rest.

Get well soon, both physically and mentally.

Yoo Hye-jeong, come on out.

Give me your arm.

-No. -You never listen.

You've never listened to me since we met.

As if only Seo-u got hurt. You were in the same place.

People of your background

can be treated unfairly

if they end up at a place like this.

Give me a book for acing my math exam.

-Why that one? -No reason.

You're weird.

Sign it, please.

LEE JI-HONG

Lee Ji-hong?

Hong Ji-hong?

Oh, those?

I was an orphan until junior high.

What's that look for? Do I look pitiful all of a sudden?

This is how people feel when they look at me

when I say that I don't have a mom.

Here.

I'M ALWAYS ROOTING FOR HYE-JEONG HONG JI-HONG

I have nothing to look at, but you.

Seo-u's fine. I just saw her.

I'm sorry.

Ever since the online post,

I've been avoiding you.

Me too.

It's too weird. You and I together?

I couldn't even imagine it.

You and me...

How is it even possible?

I heard that you resigned.

-I caused you too much-- -A teacher and a student.

A man and a woman.

If they get into trouble, which would be put in a bigger disadvantage?

But why am I more worried about you?

Mr. Hong.

Thank you for everything.

What are you doing?

I have a feeling

that this might be the last time we meet.

Don't visit me anymore.

You and I...

should keep our distance.

You're allowed to take this with you.

There's no need for a gauze. Just put this on often.

NAMYANGJU POLICE STATION

I'll drive you home.

It's late. You should go home.

No, I'm taking you home.

Didn't you say that your uncle's a lawyer?

Okay.

I'll find her a lawyer and look after her,

so, you stay away from her.

You don't have to do that.

When there's a scandal, the weaker party suffers.

I know that.

Hye-jeong will suffer the most for what happened.

Move out of granny's house, too.

People get the wrong idea.

Then, they should be blamed.

You have no right to criticize me.

I'm being jealous, not critical.

-In-ju. -Stay away from her.

She's too attractive.

You're crossing the line. She's just my student.

Yes, and that makes her a minor.

She has a right to be protected, so, do what's right.

I'm not taking you home. I changed my mind.

KIM JI-HUN, LAWYER

He's a lawyer

and In-ju's uncle. I talked to him.

He'll help you.

That's it.

Worrying won't get me anywhere.

Hello?

Min-ho?

I need you here.

If it's about Hye-jeong, forget it.

Who else can I discuss your daughter with?

She got into trouble and might end up in prison.

Whether she ends up in prison or abroad is none of my concern.

Then come over because I have cancer.

Don't be silly.

I was crazy to expect something from him.

You can't be like this, Kang Mal-sun.

Cheer up and stay strong.

Gosh, will she recover at all?

Please don't worry, ma'am.

Skin grafting isn't necessary for this kind of burn.

Hello...

Oh, Doctor. Why are you...

What brings you here, ma'am?

I'm that girl's dad.

Oh, my gosh.

I sincerely apologize.

My granddaughter made a big mistake.

I'm so sorry.

Did you get hurt badly? I'm really sorry.

-I'm okay. -What are you talking about?

Please leave!

Why did you even let her into this VIP room?

I apologize. Ma'am, you should leave.

I'm sorry. I don't know what else to say.

I'm very sorry.

SUNSHINE JUICE

Here.

Take this with you!

It's 100 percent fruit juice. You should try it.

Please take it.

-I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. -Oh, my goodness!

Geez.

KIM JI-HUN LAW OFFICE

This isn't a simple problem. Arson is a felony.

People were also injured from it, so, it's not going to be easy.

Come and eat.

A girl like me doesn't even deserve to eat.

There's no such thing when it comes to eating.

If you're breathing, that means you should eat.

Here.

Eat.

I don't want to eat. I have no appetite.

Just drink the soup then.

It's bone broth, so, it'll give you some energy.

Don't come here. You'll just get upset.

From now on, just carry on with your life,

and I'll do the same.

How can you say such a thing?

How can we forget about each other and just carry on?

You'd abandon me if I ever embarrass you.

That's not what I'm saying.

I'm saying that you should run away from me and live well.

I just cause you trouble, so, I'm giving you a chance.

I could've run away any time even if you didn't give me a chance.

I've been living a difficult life,

but I've never run away from anything.

Give it to me if you don't want it. I'll eat it.

It's delicious.

Whoever made this must be a great cook.

Why are you eating my food when you brought it for me?

Did you get injured at all?

No.

NAMYANGJU POLICE STATION

I'm sure you got hurt too.

-Are you okay, ma'am? -I'm sorry.

We're sorry.

I got the highest score in math!

Really?

I'm so happy.

Why can't I stop crying when I'm so happy?

You should be smiling if you're happy. Why would you cry?

-Then why are you crying? -Because I'm happy.

My darling!

GUKIL MEDICAL CENTER

Father.

Oh, you're here.

In-ju was called for duty while waiting for you.

She sticks her nose into everything.

I like her. She's cheerful.

Did you sort out your affairs at the school?

I just need to say goodbye to my students. How's your health?

Don't treat me like an old man.

It's not like getting a surgery changes everything.

Before you leave for the States,

apply to Johns Hopkins and Mayo Clinic,

and prepare all necessary documents.

You have a lot to do. You're going to be busy.

-Are you happy? -Yes, I am.

-What about you? -I'm happy too.

Why? What's wrong?

I'm ashamed of myself.

I was too childish the other day.

What you said woke me up.

Could you look after Hye-jeong?

-Do you trust me? -I should. You're my friend.

You're so clever.

You get what you want while drawing a clear line.

You're catching two birds with one stone.

-Are you getting home just now? -Why are you out here?

Did you meet the lawyer?

Yes, he was friendly probably because you had spoken to him.

I think it'll go well.

I'm sorry to say this to you at this time,

but I'm moving out.

You put up with a lot for Hye-jeong.

Thanks, Mr. Hong.

I'm breaking the lease, so, you can give me the deposit back later.

Give it to me when my lease is over.

You have to get in touch with me when you settle down.

Of course.

Would you fix me dinner? I'm hungry.

Okay.

I won't be able to visit you for the next few days.

You don't have to visit me at all.

I know you don't mean it, you silly.

Stop being so full of yourself.

Acting impudently like this is your way of seeking attention.

Don't you think I'd know that?

Why didn't you become the president if you were that smart and wise?

I guess eating my food made you feel better now.

Anyway, I won't be able to visit you next week.

Aren't you going to ask me why?

Why do you make me ask when you can just tell me?

Why can't you visit?

I'm getting an operation.

I have stomach cancer,

but the operation will cure it.

I haven't told you yet because I didn't want to worry you.

I was going to tell you on the day of the surgery.

But I'm telling you now because I thought it'd be better for you to worry

instead of being bored here with nothing else to do.

I thought about getting the surgery after you're released

but I wanted to show you.

How much I love my life even though it's a mess,

and just how much I want to live.

According to the doctor,

I'll be fine after the surgery since the cancer cells won't be spreading.

But how can I be fine when my body would be cut open and organs severed?

-I might die. -Grandma!

If you stay in that cell

without doing anything but worry

and wind up in jail,

then you might not be able to see me in my final moments.

-You won't die. Don't worry. -I know.

So, you should live too.

I'll do anything to save you...

but you need to try and save yourself too.

You didn't start the fire, right?

Don't take the blame and speak up.

You should go now.

Come back after you recover from your surgery.

Grandma...

Grandma...

GRANDMA'S DINER

BOARDING

Let's go.

GRANDMA'S DINER

Regarding the arson,

I started the fire.

In Jin Seo-u's statement,

she said that she followed Cheon Sun-hui and found Yoo Hye-jeong waiting.

Yoo Hye-jeong held a grudge on her because of what she had posted online.

Yoo Hye-jeong asked her to delete her post

and threatened her, which led to a fight.

She lost consciousness and a fire started.

Yoo Hye-jeong must have started it.

Seo-u doesn't know how the fire started.

She was too busy fighting with Hye-jeong.

If you started that fire,

you're facing at least five years at a juvenile center.

Did you still do it?

I'll take her home.

No, you can't.

I'm revising my report.

You thoughtless brat.

Do you want to become a convict for your friend?

What do you see in her? You have your family.

-Do you like her better than your family? -Yes, I do!

She was the first person

in my life to treat me sincerely.

What?

You and mom always said

that I gave you a hard time and that you shouldn't have had me so late.

The whole family is embarrassed of me.

Even my brothers and sisters-in-law.

Hye-jeong likes me.

She's not embarrassed of me.

I'm not leaving her here alone.

Fine.

Please do whatever you want.

How did I end up with a daughter like you? You're such an embarrassment!

Yoo Hye-jeong, come out.

Come on.

You go in.

Why are you...

I'm the one who did it.

Don't do this. You won't survive in this place.

I can do it if you can.

Let her go. She can't stay here.

She only got involved because I asked her to bring Seo-u to me.

Are you two lovers?

Your love for each other is very touching.

I'll let you two sort this out.

You idiot, say you didn't do it.

You're not helping anyone.

This only happened because I bring bad luck.

Listen.

I didn't leave you behind.

Just remember that.

Hye-jeong or whatever her name is will get expelled from school.

What about Mr. Hong?

Forget about that school.

Let's transfer to a new one. That dump doesn't suit you.

You can live with your grandfather.

Here, have this.

I feel suffocated. I want to get some air.

Where are you going at this hour?

Don't worry.

NAMYANGJU GUKIL MEDICAL CENTER

If you didn't start the fire on purpose...

bring me evidence that it happened by accident during the fight.

That will make this end with a fine.

Seo-u says she doesn't know anything.

That's the problem.

Wake up, Seo-u!

Seo-u, Seo-u!

Seo-u, wake up!

-Get her on my back. -Okay.

Let's get out of here.

Did you run away from the police station?

You know we didn't start the fire on purpose.

It was an accident.

If you just tell the truth,

this can end without anyone getting hurt.

The point is that you called me there.

The fact that you lured me out there

means you were planning to hurt me.

You might as well have started the fire.

Sun-hui came to the police station.

She said she started the fire.

What?

She's unbelievable.

Is she insane?

What's wrong with you?

We were friends.

-You tutored me and-- -You make me mad.

Seeing you makes me mad.

I don't know why either.

But I get mad...

with myself.

What should I do?

Should I beg although it wouldn't make a difference?

You don't know that until you give it a try.

Now I know.

It doesn't make a difference.

I was worried I wouldn't be here for your surgery.

Oh, you scared me!

You woke me up.

When did you get out?

How did you get out? Tell me.

I'm sleepy.

Wait a second.

I shouldn't be sitting here.

No, not this.

I should feed her warm tofu.

Hye-jeong, eat this. Come on.

Later.

You have to eat right now.

All you have to do is chew. Here you go.

Here.

You're going to the hospital today, right?

You have a good memory.

Gosh...

My darling.

NAMYANGJU POLICE STATION

Thank you.

-You're welcome. I'll get going then. -Goodbye, sir.

Thank you.

Dad.

Thank you, Dad.

I was locked in the cell only for a day, but it was so terrifying.

Do you think I got you out for you?

You were causing such a shame to our family!

But still, thank you for getting me out.

When this is over, I'm sending you to your aunt in Canada.

I'm ready for it.

I can't imagine how ashamed you must be right now

for having me as your daughter.

Dad!

Dad!

NAMYANG GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL

I have no excuses.

I'm just sorry that I didn't get to finish this semester.

Trust your own judgment from what you saw,

and let's meet again when the time passes.

Class president.

-Attention. -Wherever I am,

I will remember you.

Thank you.

Bow.

What are you doing?

I guess you are worried about me.

Why would I be worried?

You've been through so much. Cancer can't kill you.

Even the doctor said there's nothing to worry about.

You're expelled from school. What will you do now?

I will tell you once you come out of the surgery.

What trouble are you trying to cause now?

-Don't you trust me? -You should make me trust you.

Even if I want to die, I can't die because of you.

I should keep causing trouble to make you live longer then.

You naughty brat!

-I'm a "naughty brat"! -Gosh...

Grandma.

I will be done soon.

So, don't act pathetic and cry. Go grab some food.

Stop worrying about me and just do well.

I have no doubt that the doctor will do a good job.

The doctor is handsome and smart.

I trust him.

Since when were you so close to him?

He is Seo-u's father.

You are indebted to her forever.

We're going in.

Yes, I know. It's 5 p.m.

I'm in a surgery right now. I'll finish it fast then.

Okay.

It's spread out more than I thought.

Residents! Use the suction!

Blood pressure is dropping!

Manually squeeze the drip!

-Hurry. -The patient is in cardiac arrest.

We did everything we could, but it didn't go well.

What does it mean that "it didn't go well"?

It means it didn't go well.

You should start preparing the funeral with the adults.

No way.

My grandmother is Kang Mal-sun. Kang Mal-sun.

Kang Mal-sun never dies.

I'll speak to the adults.

Why do you speak to the adults, but not me?

I am the closest to her.

Why would you speak to others who barely know her?

Because only adults have common sense.

Our entire family is here.

Today will be the turning point of our family history.

Let's drink.

-Eat a lot, Father. -I will.

It's very fragrant.

Yes. It's good.

Eat a lot, honey.

Dear Hye-jeong.

I'm writing this letter in case something happens to me.

I can become disabled

or die during the surgery.

They say that even animals don't abandon their offspring.

I wonder what's wrong with your parents.

That's also your fate though.

At least you got lucky with me.

It shouldn't happen,

but if I die, you can keep my savings. It's now in your name.

Study with that money.

The people I envy the most are educated women.

My back hurts, so, I can't write anymore.

From your grandma.

You can't even dream big.

If you're born as a human, you have to live a special life.

You're supposed to show me that before I die.

It's all your fault.

Why are you crying?

I shouldn't have let her take care of you.

Right, honey?

In the end, you killed her too.

You're expelled now.

What will you do?

You got money from the hospital, didn't you?

What money?

They gave us some for the funeral expense.

Why would you care about that?

I told you it went wrong.

She went in smiling but came out dead.

Something went wrong!

Stop making a fuss.

Since when did you care so much about your grandmother?

She was old.

Surgery is already tough for the young.

It was more than possible for her to pass away.

"It was more than possible"?

"More than possible"?

How can you say that?

Would you say that even when your daughter dies?

Why would you bring up my daughter right now?

What's wrong with you, Dad?

Don't you have anything to say?

Let's go quietly.

"Quietly", you say?

This hospital killed my grandmother.

Are you the one who killed her?

You said she'd live if the cancer cells were removed.

Gosh, why is she acting like this? Leave.

-Go! -You can't get away with this.

I won't let it slide!

Let her be.

What can you do then?

I already spoke with your parents.

They understood and I also compensated them.

It's unfortunate that this happened,

but I'm not worried about anything because I did my best.

I also think that I cleaned up nicely.

Even if you did your best, you should be ashamed if someone died.

Are you forgiven just because you did your best?

If

you can find any evidence that shows I didn't do my best,

then I will get punished your way.

However, being disrespectful and rude like this can't be forgiven.

If you cause another scene here, it will not be tolerated.

NAMYANGJU GUKIL MEDICAL CENTER

MR. HONG

Ji-hong worries about you a lot.

Just as a student, of course.

I've always been his troubleshooter,

so, I said I'd help.

I can figure it out on my own.

It's an alternative school.

It's in Gangwon Province, and it has on-campus residences.

I'm taking the high school diploma equivalency exam.

I don't want to move away from my grandma.

You like Ji-hong, don't you?

Birds of the same feather should flock together.

You and Ji-hong are not in the same league.

But, he and I are in the same league. When we're together,

it's a win-win for us.

To put it straightforward,

you're a roadblock to him.

Yoo Hye-jeong.

Hey, why didn't you call me?

Do I have to hear about your grandma from someone else?

Why do I have to tell you about my grandma?

Of course, you have to tell me.

What are you going to do now?

Why is that any of your business?

Of course, it is.

You're my student.

Do you stick your nose into every single student's life like this?

I'm sorry.

I guess now is not a good time to talk.

Goodbye.

Do you really want me to go?

Yes.

I don't want to see you ever again.

I can help you.

No.

Go to where you belong.

I'll go where I belong.

Do you want some fresh air?

Love-stricken insanity

is proof of brain cell stimulation.

The lack of insanity in love is abnormal.

I tried to protect myself from being insane from love.

So...

I paid the price.

13 YEARS LATER

Here you go.

-Go and get it ready. -Yes, Doctor.

Keep up the good work!

Where's the doctor?

Hurry!

Doctor!

Our boss is here. Let's speed things up.

Hey, you should help them.

Neurosurgeons should be held in reserve at the trauma center.

Your department should screen all emergency patients first.

Are you the doctor? Come here.

Well, what brings you here?

We have a patient.

Stop shaking, we're humans too. Hurry up and take a look.

Gosh, he's bleeding.

Hey! What are you doing?

-My gosh. -I'm sorry.

-I'm just a little nervous. -What's going on?

-Doctor Kang. -Yes?

He's in charge here.

Please help them.

Yes, I'm in charge here.

-Are you a doctor? -Yes.

Come and examine him.

Let me have a look.

We'll need to run an ABG analysis and then do a routine test.

Then, take a CT scan and MRI together.

Okay.

Do you take me for an idiot?

Don't you think I know that you're doing

these unnecessary tests to make money?

You fool!

Can't you even do that right?

How dare you raise your voice in front of my boss

instead of answering him!

Do you need me to teach you a lesson?

No.

Aren't you taking stress from me out on him?

Of course not.

-Clench your teeth. -No, please.

Clench your teeth.

Who are you?

-Are you a nurse? -Can't you tell?

I'm a doctor.

This is where patients get treated.

Please leave if you aren't a patient.

Who are you to tell my boss what to do?

I'm the person who will treat this patient.

It is my duty to create the optimum environment for treatment.

I won't have a girl treat me.

Bring me a male doctor.

Hey, escort her out.

-Yes, Boss. -Yes, Boss.

Hey.

-Move it. -Look, Doctor.

Why don't you go take a break over there?

Hey.

Yun-do.

I've liked you for a long time.

No, not this.

Isn't there something that sounds better?

I have to find a way to impress that cold heart of his.

Babe.

I've been watching you ever since you made your rounds.

"Watching you"?

I sound like a stalker.

No.

Let's just keep it simple. He won't be impressed anyway.

Jung Yun-do, you're mine.

Couldn't you have waited for me?

Are you trying to act like a girl now?

Save that for your boyfriend.

I can't eat.

Why did you bring me here for dinner? There are plenty of nice restaurants.

Most of them overcharge you for bad food.

Do you know how well-known this place is for good food?

You wear socks worth 200,000 won, but you're so stingy with food.

I've always told you that

the interior design is all about the finishing material,

and fashion is all about the socks.

-Eat up. -I told you I'm not eating.

Then let's go. I have to go back to the hospital.

I have something to tell you.

Go ahead.

Being dishonest with you will backfire on me,

so, I'll stick to the facts.

Hey, ma'am.

-Me? -Who do you think I'm looking at?

I'm looking right at you.

I'm hardly old enough to be called ma'am. You have terrible eyesight.

I'm sorry, I thought you two were married.

We must look great together.

No, you don't.

I can just see how indifferent he is with you.

That's not how men stare at their lovers.

You're very good at frustrating me.

You're the one who's so good at

frustrating me.

I'll just pay for that.

It's manners to apologize first. Why is money being discussed?

I'm sorry, okay?

But I'm not fully responsible. It was practically falling apart.

It could have hurt someone.

Yun-do.

Are you leaving?

Don't you even see movies?

You're supposed to stand up for me. Yell at her and pay her off.

Clean up your own mess.

Yun-do!

Where do you think you're going?

Tell me how much it is! I'll pay for it!

Oh, no.

What should I do?

-Oh, no. -We should call an ambulance.

Hey, ma'am!

Hurry up and call the ambulance!

-Oh, no. -Ma'am!

Do you have an operating room ready?

Yes, it's room one.

Why not room two?

The new fellow doctor is using it.

It's an emergency surgery.

Why don't I know about this surgery?

I'm on duty today.

All surgeries today are my responsibility.

I know. I told her several times, but she wouldn't listen to--

Then you should've called me! What were you thinking?

Did I go too easy on you lately?

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

All I ask is for you to take responsibility.
