Original subtitles

Hui-ju came to me.

A proud woman like her asked me for help.

She asked me to stop you.

You don't love me. Wake up!

Who are you to judge my feelings?

This isn't love!

No--

Stop--

Hello, Ms. Lee. I should've called you first--

Ms. Jeong,

did Mr. Seo visit you today?

Sorry?

Maybe I shouldn't have provoked him like that, but he just wouldn't listen.

Watch out for him.

Okay.

Did you have a drink?

A bit.

I couldn't bear the pain.

There are many people here. Leave quietly.

We'll talk at the gallery tomorrow.

You should've been straightforward with me

instead of hiding behind Ms. Lee.

Make the video public.

Let people be the judge of it.

Show it to them.

You're drunk.

I'll call a cab, so--

Did you want to ruin me by making me out to be the bad guy?

Did you scheme all this? Is that it?

Lower your voice.

You're anxious about so many things.

So why do you treat me like this?

What?

You think it was all a scheme? How so?

You know it better than I do.

You showed up unannounced that day.

Was that my scheming too?

I don't intend to hurt you.

I just needed a reason to opt out of the project.

A reason Ms. Lee would understand.

Why were you so desperate to opt out of the project?

Because I wanted to stop making mistakes.

Woo-jae.

Please let me go.

Your career has just begun.

And you have the potential to do whatever you want in the future.

But I can't be the one by your side. It shouldn't be me.

Don't call it a mistake.

You had feelings for me.

That was a mistake?

I did. I loved you.

But it was all a mistake, so I ended it.

And I felt guilty about it.

When I said I wanted the best for you,

I truly meant it.

So why are you complicating everything?

You're one to talk.

You abandoned me and ran away,

but I believed you'd come back.

And when I was blindly waiting for you,

your husband hit me with his car and disguised it as an accident.

Did you think I was going to let you two live happily ever after?

You're wrong! That's not what happened!

My husband was with me that night.

I'm sorry about the accident, but he had nothing to do with it.

Liar.

That's what I remember.

I'll compensate you for the years you lost.

As much as I can.

But that's it.

It's over between us.

I think you can leave now.

What are you so afraid of?

Is it…

me?

Are you scared of me, Hui-ju?

Woo-jae.

Woo-jae, wait. Seo Woo-jae!

That hurts!

Woo-jae…

Woo-jae…

Woo-jae, wait. Seo Woo-jae!

That hurts!

Woo-jae…

Woo-jae…

-I can't let you go like this. -Woo-jae…

If I can't have you,

nobody can have you. That's only fair.

Wait…

Woo-jae!

No! Stop!

No, Woo-jae!

No!

Ho-su, don't do that. Be careful or you'll get hurt.

Li-sa, when did you go out--

Li-sa!

One minute. Li-sa!

Li-sa.

Li-sa.

Open…

Let me talk to her.

When did you get here?

What's wrong?

I got upset, and it must've startled her.

I need to fix this myself.

I got this, so you should go downstairs.

Ho-su is all alone.

Dad!

Coming, Ho-su.

Li-sa, it's me.

Are you okay?

How is he?

Fortunately, he wasn't that badly hurt.

He's okay.

So… So don't worry too much.

You should go to bed.

And we can talk again tomorrow, okay?

I think we should let Li-sa get some rest tonight.

You see…

I shouldn't have gotten upset and cornered her like that.

Her teacher told me not to upset her,

but it's quite difficult.

Your delivery is here.

-Chicken! -Thank you.

-Enjoy. -The wings are mine!

We ordered fried chicken for dinner.

Good job.

This looks tasty. Let's go eat.

Gosh, it's your favorite,

soy sauce chicken.

It looks so good.

SEDATIVES

If you drink this, Ho-su will want some as well.

Drink this instead.

Your mom's orders.

This is good too.

Li-sa didn't have dinner yet.

I'll handle it.

Anyway, I should go talk to her teacher tomorrow.

Why? Did she do it again?

We'll talk later.

Give me more chicken, Dad.

All right. Let me debone it

for your convenience.

Gosh, it looks tasty.

Is it good?

No, Woo-jae! Don't do it!

Woo-jae!

Woo-jae.

"Cassandra once said this to her."

"'If you stab a human, you will end up dying too.'"

"This incident was engraved in Maya's memory."

"Maya's wish was to…"

Where are you headed?

Be careful, or you'll crash. Do you also want to die?

See? You can't escape from me.

That's enough.

We'll always be together.

-Now, in the future, -That's enough.

-and even after death. -That's enough!

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

One day,

a silver bell from a monastery in Sligo fell into the lake.

Even to this day, those with pure hearts and souls

can hear the bell chiming.

Do you hear it?

There's no way I'd be able to hear that.

FINALE AFTER THE STORM

Did I sleep here?

You slept like a baby.

Gosh.

I haven't slept this well in a while.

It seemed so.

You were sleeping so soundly that I watched you for a while.

Ho-su.

An Ho-su.

Time to get up.

What are you doing here?

Let's have breakfast.

What happened to him?

Is he really okay?

Is he alive?

Come on.

People don't die that easily.

It's not that easy to kill a grown man

with a stab from a tiny hand like yours.

-Then how is he? -He's fine.

Even the doctor said so.

Listen carefully.

You only did that to help me.

He barged in here and choked me. He's in the wrong.

You didn't do anything wrong. Okay?

Answer me.

I promise.

Nothing happened yesterday.

Everything's totally fine.

You can forget what happened.

Hui-ju?

Hui-ju?

What?

Gosh.

Is the preparation going well?

There's not much I need to do. Hyeon-seong is taking care of everything.

Hui-ju, are you okay?

I must've slept wrong.

Gosh. Lie down. Let me massage your neck.

It's okay. It'll go away once I take a nap.

Li-sa. I thought I wouldn't get to see you today.

Mom's car isn't here.

Well, she just left.

I was playing a game with Ho-su.

I see.

I don't want to take up your time. Go in.

Okay.

Uncle.

Do you still envy me?

You once told me

you envied me for having a mom.

But she sides with you every time.

Even if I kill someone?

Do you still think that way?

I do, since it's your mom.

She'll be always on your side.

It's the same passcode.

Come anytime you want.

And these…

What are you doing?

Hey.

This? Woo-jae…

He wants to leave. He says he'll leave.

He's done making wrong choices.

Well… You know how he is.

He's always reckless and unpredictable.

But why are you packing his bags for him?

Don't get me wrong. He asked me to--

Woo-jae is dead.

Did you think I wouldn't know?

Cat got your tongue?

Three of you went in. But Li-sa and you…

Only two of you came out.

It's best not to lie if you're going to get caught so soon.

I guess you forgot about this.

But then,

I didn't know what to do either.

I can only imagine how you felt.

You may have meticulously dodged security cameras and gotten rid of his body,

but the blood and fingerprints…

on this pen will point to Li-sa--

You're wrong.

Then? Was it you?

What?

I thought it was you.

But I guess it was Li-sa.

That explains why you're acting this way.

Hae-won.

Please turn a blind eye to this. I beg you.

Even if I get arrested for it, my husband…

Hyeon-seong will never abandon me.

He'll hire every single competent lawyer in this country.

I'm sure it'd be a cakewalk to argue that I was tired of his stalking

and that I did what I did in self-defense.

Then I won't be punished.

Is that what you want?

No, right?

I'll give up everything. I'll never paint again.

I'll leave my family as well.

I'll never come back.

I'll never show up in front of you or anyone else.

I'll make myself out to be a heartless bitch who deceived

and left everyone after having an affair with Woo-jae.

I know I should've come clean ages ago.

Since my repentance is long overdue, I'll pay for it even longer.

Everyone will curse me.

And my family will be

so ashamed of the fact that I was a part of their family

that they'll want to remove me from their memory.

So, please.

I'm sorry, Hae-won.

I wanted to apologize to you countless times.

But I decided not to because I was afraid of losing everything.

So laugh at me all you want

and enjoy watching me fall.

But please spare Li-sa.

I'm the one who sinned, so why should she pay?

Please spare her, will you?

You're right.

Li-sa is innocent.

Can you really give up everything?

You're willing to live

in the prison you made for yourself until the day you die.

Is that what you're saying?

Why are you cleaning when you're behind on work?

It's squeaky clean.

You know how easy it is to get distracted when you can't focus.

But still, this is just… Gosh.

You even washed your car. You're going to be exhausted.

Cleaning helps me sort myself out. I like it.

What brings you here?

Well, I haven't seen you all day.

Aren't you going to bed?

Go to bed first. Let me finish this up.

No one can stop you.

By the way, where's that painting?

-What? -Our family portrait.

That?

I completely ruined it while retouching it.

Why did you do that? It was already great.

Exactly.

I shouldn't have been a greedy idiot.

I should've been content with it.

But I decided to retouch it and ruined everything.

It's okay. You can always paint it again.

It's all right.

Why did you change your mind all of a sudden?

I realized I was being selfish for wanting

to keep Ho-su by my side.

This is a great opportunity for him.

I don't want to be the reason he misses it.

Like you said,

Ho-su will be the one to inherit all that you've built.

That's all the more reason…

he should be given the education you want and I should be grateful.

I purchased them based on my preferences, so it isn't very cohesive.

Once the gallery opens, I'd like you

to display them permanently, so the visitors could enjoy them.

I'll leave it to you, Yun-jeong.

You most certainly have a keen eye.

These works will be enough to fill up an entire exhibition hall.

I know you'll do well.

And my husband…

Mr. An will help manage it.

I guess this will be my last time here.

JEONG HUI-JU'S SOLO INVITATIONAL EXHIBIT

WE ALL HAVE A WINDOW IN OUR HEARTS

WE CAN EITHER STAY INDOORS OR OPEN IT AND GO OUTSIDE

What made you want to come here?

You're the one who introduced this food to me.

On the first day. Do you not remember?

You brought me here on our first date.

Gosh. You know what?

It was so bland. I didn't know what I was eating,

but I was too famished to say no.

I wanted to treat you to the tastiest dish.

Thank you.

Hold on.

Vinegar…

-Thank you. -What?

Whenever I went to a buffet,

I was always determined to have all the food they served there.

But I'd end up

filling my first plate with gimbap and japchae.

So I'd be full after having that one plate.

I used to be a fool like that.

But thanks to you,

I'm now able to appreciate many great things in life.

-Let's eat. -Okay.

Here.

It's so good.

-Thank you for the meal. -Thank you for the meal.

Do you still want to break up?

Then just die.

Ma'am.

Don't ever forgive me.

Just continue

despising me.

That way,

you'll still see me.

I'm not running away.

I just want to do my best for Jeong-seop's sake too.

You know I can't hold a candle to him.

You might not be satisfied with the result,

but I'll try my best.

I'll become a better person

who can help others when they're in need.

Here.

This is the hospital address I'll be working at and my number.

Feel free to call me anytime you want.

I'll call you every day too.

Then, take care.

HOME ADDRESS, HOSPITAL ADDRESS, HOSPITAL PHONE NUMBER

HOW TO MAKE INTERNATIONAL CALLS

Do you think

he would want his friend to live a life of suffering forever?

Was that the kind of person he was?

Honey!

Who are you guys?

-You're mistaken. I'm meeting a friend. -Let's go.

Tell them! Gu Jeong-yeon! Hey!

You bitch! God damn it!

You startled me.

When did you come?

Tell me I did the right thing.

What?

Just say it to me.

"Jeong-yeon, well done."

Well done, Jeong-yeon.

What did you do, though?

My dad used to tell me

that it's foolish to say things you don't really have to say.

That's why

I've never told Hae-won who her dad was. And I never will.

Don't tell her.

Besides, she looks exactly like you anyway.

What's wrong?

I don't know.

I don't know how things turned out this way.

That's life.

Most of the time,

you're not in control of what goes on around you.

Thank you.

What's gotten into you today?

And I'm really…

hungry.

Get me something to eat.

Okay.

One minute.

And I'm truly…

sorry.

Get up.

Get up.

Support your body with your arms.

You should at least have enough strength

to sit on the toilet by yourself, shouldn't you?

Do I have to clean your shit as well?

I'm the one who'll be by your side to the end.

Listen to me. Grab it!

What's wrong?

Offended by my tone?

Your formal tone was much more repulsive to me.

Get up.

It's hot.

When are you leaving?

This weekend.

Why? Does it make you sad?

This is our last meal together. We should've had something better.

Why is this our last meal?

It's not like I'm not coming back.

Oh, right. I have something for you.

Take it.

I'm not asking you to come with me.

Just feel free to come whenever you need a break.

Come on.

You don't have to come, so just keep it.

Consider it insurance.

You came after weeks. Are you leaving already?

You even spent the weekend on campus. What's going on?

The upcoming exam is very important. I'll come visit next week.

You better. I'll be waiting.

Are you really okay going by yourself?

I have company.

Bye.

Hey, what should we get to eat?

-Anything's good. -Anything?

Let's go.

You should've come out to say bye.

I already said goodbye.

We hugged, and I even gave her some money.

Why are you packing?

I'll stay in Daejeon for a while.

There's a vacant spot at a skincare shop there.

Hey, check this out. Doesn't it look luxurious?

-What is it? -What?

Why are you running away this time?

It's not like that this time.

It's great that there's someone who needs me.

Besides, you're going to move back in here.

Has he not called you yet?

Is he ghosting you again?

Is it over for good?

Yes.

I won't be able

to see him ever again.

Goodness. It's so easy for him, isn't it?

Never mind.

There's no need to get worked up over him.

It's for the best to wrap things up quickly.

It's much better than being treated like a doormat.

Good job.

Well done.

Ms. Gu Jeong-yeon, this is the police.

Ms. Gu?

Mom. What's going on?

NO FISHING, DANGER

It looks so dreary already.

This is what happens when you stop tending to a place.

The dock on the other side

has also shut down, so there aren't any boats there.

So where will you go live now?

I've settled in one place for too long.

The nomadic lifestyle doesn't sound too bad.

Should I go with you?

As if.

Do you think you can leave your kids behind and do that?

What will you do now?

Once I leave, you'll have no one to turn to.

You may live a fancy lifestyle,

but you have no one you can lean on.

You don't have any parents.

You even sent your one and only brother abroad.

What will you do now?

Beats me.

Thanks for listening to my whining all this time.

I'm glad you know.

What about that?

There's not much I can do for you as you embark on a new journey.

You know how rich I am, right? So just take this.

But, that's…

Just take it.

That truck is too big for your petite body.

I can't…

-If you don't take it-- -I'll take it.

I can't believe this. You're really giving this to me?

Yes.

I love you.

Hey.

What are those flowers for?

What would you like?

Sir, let me buy you a drink today.

Me?

What for?

I heard about what happened with my mom.

She's being questioned by the police right now,

so I'd like to apologize on her behalf.

You don't apologize on someone else's behalf.

And your mom already apologized enough.

I'm sorry.

And I don't have the right to forgive her.

I was at fault too.

From my wife's point of view, both your mom and me are…

No.

I'm more at fault.

Strictly speaking, Jeong-yeon was also a victim.

But what she did was still wrong.

So she needs to pay for it.

That's best for her too.

That way, she can start afresh.

She won't be coming back here again.

I told you.

She flees when she's in a tough spot.

-Do you want to make a bet? -What?

I won't be leaving here anytime soon, so I'll wait for her.

I have a knack for waiting.

You can treat me then.

To the most expensive and oldest drink.

Mr. Yoon, do you like…

Because of my work, it's hard for me to trust anyone.

Trust leads to expectation, which leads to disappointment.

But Jeong-yeon keeps trusting no matter how many times she's betrayed.

And it may look foolish, but it takes a lot of courage.

So I'm going to trust her.

The loser buys that 40-year-old liquor, okay?

RICE & BAR

RICE MEAL

When will you be leaving?

Just one more night.

Let me spend one more night with the kids, and then I'll leave.

You said I wouldn't know

how a mother would feel, right?

But I think I do.

I also had a chance to become a mother once.

Were you…

I'm not trying to make you feel guilty.

I just wanted to tell you that.

You should go.

While packing my bag, I found this.

I don't need it.

I just wanted you to know

how brightly you used to shine

and how…

jealous I was of you.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Honey.

What…

Sir, there's something you need to see.

Ma'am, check this out.

Goodness.

Is that why--

What is it? Is there something you know?

No, nothing.

-We're a bit dumbfounded too. -Hello.

Even I'm confused about what's going on.

Yes.

Where's Woo-jae?

Where is he?

I haven't seen him in days.

And the studio is a mess.

What's going on?

What are you two scheming this time?

Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with me.

I can't reach Hui-ju.

Something must be going on.

Call Woo-jae.

I'm sure that bastard did something to her again.

Ms. Gu. Please.

Hui-ju could be in danger right now.

Is that what you think?

Does it seem to you he kidnapped her or something?

Hui-ju and Woo-jae…

Those two

left with each other again.

What?

You're wrong.

Hui-ju left of her own volition.

No one forced her.

What are you… No. You're wrong.

Why would she leave her family? Her kids?

She did it back then too.

What's stopping them from doing it again?

She must've felt guilty this time,

seeing how she sent me a text.

Lies. Don't lie to me!

Would you like to read it?

WE'RE GOING TO FOLLOW OUR HEARTS I'M SORRY. PLEASE DON'T LOOK FOR US.

You don't want to believe it, do you? You think it makes no sense, don't you?

Oftentimes, the truth

is more painful and shocking than any lie.

Woo-jae…

He left everything behind just for her.

And I don't plan on looking for him this time.

If this turns out to be a lie,

I'll kill both of you.

I just wanted you to know

how brightly you used to shine…

and how…

jealous I was of you.

How dare that crazy bitch do this to us?

She closed her bank account and credit cards.

Her phone has been disconnected since last night.

She already filled out a form to hand over her art collection to the new gallery.

And she only took the dashcam footage leaving her car behind.

Check thoroughly again.

Make sure she didn't take anything that's mine.

Don't let any more news come out about her disappearance.

Get Li-sa ready to study abroad as well.

People are going to gossip about that bitch.

She doesn't need to hear that.

And you.

Don't you dare go looking for her.

Everyone needs to think that we kicked her out!

She should've knelt down and begged for my mercy.

How dare that crude bitch run away instead?

She's impudent to the very end! What does she take me for?

If anything, I should be the one to get mad.

So, please…

be quiet.

Hello?

You're leaving today, right?

Are you at the airport?

Yes, Hyeon-seong.

Thank you for this. I'll do my best there.

And your sister…

We talked yesterday. She said she wouldn't come to the airport.

You know how nonchalant she can be once she makes a decision.

Right. That's her.

Have a safe trip.

Call me when you get there.

Have you gotten in touch with Mr. Seo?

No.

I'm sure you tried too. That's probably why you reached out to me.

We're quite flustered too.

This is really affecting the project.

Mr. Woo isn't happy

about all those rumors going on around his project.

I'll hand over all his work and drafts regarding the project.

You can remove his name.

Please get rid of all his work at the gallery too.

But is that what he…

He left before he could finish anything.

It's the price he must pay.

But still, what if he returns?

No.

He won't return.

Hey, you picked up.

You're leaving today, right?

Yes.

Well…

You didn't throw out the ticket I gave you, did you?

No. It'd be a waste.

I'll wait for you.

Don't wait. I won't be going.

Then I'll just come back.

Take care of yourself until then.

And thank you for picking up.

I wanted to see you one last time, but I held myself back.

Do you still have time?

What?

Wait there. I'll say goodbye in person.

I totally forgot…

that I was the very person who took everything from you.

As I expected, will my story never have a happy ending?

I wanted to forget everything and start anew.

My real story hasn't even begun yet.

Is this how it all ends?

I have yet to find any traces of her.

The good news is that there haven't been

any Jane Does around her age.

SEOUL, GYEONGGI MAP

It's quite probable that she covered up her traces

and left of her own volition.

I'll look for her in other ways too.

Don't.

Let's stop here.

Have you really not heard from her?

You came here for nothing.

If she calls, please let me know.

No. If she calls me, I'll--

No.

She won't call.

She abandoned her own kids for some guy.

I doubt she'll call her friend.

I don't believe that Hui-ju would leave for an affair.

She poured her heart out to me.

She truly regretted what she had done in the past.

Her feelings were genuine. I can guarantee that.

But she ran away with him out of the blue?

That's not what happened.

I'm sure there was another reason--

I don't care about the reason.

I don't care where she is or whom she's with.

Because--

No matter how terrible the situation,

it doesn't change the fact that she left me without saying…

a single word.

I hope you're not still wasting your time looking for her.

We reported her missing but still couldn't find her.

She's determined to stay hidden in this tiny country.

Who knows? Maybe the rumors about their committing suicide are true.

I understand.

Dad.

Ho-su.

Where's Li-sa?

Li-sa.

Will you…

really be okay?

Yes. I'm sick and tired of this place.

Why would you ask her that now? She'll only cause trouble if she stays.

Ho-su.

I'll fly over soon. I promise.

Go first with Grandma.

Due to a meeting, I can't go to the airport.

I'll visit next month.

You're so relentless every morning.

Lugging around that half-wit…

Take good care of the hospital while I'm gone.

I'll fly back as soon as the kids get situated.

Don't you worry. Haven't I proven enough?

You should've been like this sooner.

But then again, you do take after me.

You should go. I have a directorate meeting to attend.

Bye. See you during the break.

Li-sa, make sure Ho-su takes his medicine.

When will you put an end to this pity party of yours?

There's plenty of women lined up for you.

Min-seo.

Never mind.

Will you be okay?

Management was never your forte.

With each gain, there comes a loss.

A FEW YEARS LATER

You have long, beautiful fingers.

I used to be beautiful at your age too.

You're still so young,

why are you working here, taking care of old people?

I like it here.

You like it here? Don't be like that.

Go out there and enjoy your life.

This is nothing short of a prison.

There's nothing…

that I can enjoy or have

that's better than this.

Goodness, gracious.

If my legs were stronger, I'd rush out of here in an instant.

I'm sick of this place.

Every day is excruciatingly long.

That's why you should reconcile with Jeong-suk.

You always argue out of nowhere.

She keeps rubbing me the wrong way.

She only treats me well when she's happy

and always complains about her life.

No matter how old you are, you still hate and get jealous, you know?

But she's so self-centered.

It's irritating.

GU HAE-WON, FIRST SOLO EXHIBITION

GU HAE-WON, FIRST SOLO EXHIBITION

I finally saw you again after a very long time.

And you had just begun your story.

It's now time for my story to end.

CLOSED FISHING AREA NO LONGER IN BUSINESS

DANGER DO NOT ENTER

THIS ACCOUNT IS PRIVATE

It's not hell just yet.

My story ends here.
