----
-The weather is so nice today. -I know.
It's so nice.
-Should we stop by to get something to eat? -Yeah, let's eat.
We can't eat inside Betty, but Yoon's letting us eat.
What's this?
-Are we in a car accident? -A theatrical episode in my boring life.
It's a mid-sized sedan. The driver's a male in his mid 20's.
It's definitely his dad's car. Once we get out of the car, talk down to him.
Get ready. Let's go.
-Oh, my head. -Oh my spine.
-My teeth... -Oh, my knees.
Do you know who we are? If you add up our worth, the entire nation will be in debt.
What's going to happen to this nation? How can a car accident happen?
May I make a phone call?
You're driving me crazy.
Hello, this is Attorney Choi. I was just in a car accident.
Is this the police headquarters? May I speak to the chief?
He'll know if you tell him it's Im Tae San.
Honey, it's me. I was in an accident.
Starting with the highest rank, start making the calls.
Is this the Criminal Investigation Laboratory? May I speak to Mr. Yoon Ji Hoon?
I'm not severely hurt, but my neck...
The back of my neck is in pain, but you never know with car accidents...
What? Mr. Yoon Ji Hoon passed away?
He wants to go at it, I guess.
Is this the insurance company?
We are at Gook Jae crossroads.
I hit them from the back. Yes, it's my fault.
Yes, we'll be waiting.
I'm really sorry.
They'll be here in 10 minutes.
Are you hurt much?
The weather's pretty nice.
The police headquarters? Do you even know what the chief looks like?
And you... Why would you look for Min Sook?
My wife is the highest ranking person to me.
What?
-Criminal Investigation Laboratory? -It happened that way...
Why does 10 minutes seem so long?
It's not that we didn't know to call the insurance company in case of an accident.
But that day, we were being the middle-aged adults that we once detested in our 20's.
If you're taking a winding path to solve a rather simple problem,
and bluffing your way through life,
it may be that you've become the middle-aged adult you once detested.
A Gentleman's Dignity
Episode 18
Why is your phone turned off?
Me Ah Ri's departing right now. She's at the airport.
She just sent me a text message. Her phone is already disconnected.
You're going to send her away like this?
Hey, Me Ah Ri's leaving for the U.S.
She's departing today...
I guess you heard already.
If you go now, you may catch her.
-If you speed. -She may not have gone through ticketing yet.
She's not that quick moving.
She may have missed the plane shopping at the duty-free shops.
She could've been arrested for carrying firearms or drugs in her bag.
She may have been carrying the same bag as another man...
The bags may have switched, and while they're looking, their eyes lock, and...
She's probably waiting for you right now.
Can you leave? I have a trial tomorrow.
You fool...
The trial is tomorrow, but Me Ah Ri's leaving right now.
If Tae San finds out...
I love you, Im Me Ah Ri.
I'm sorry I made you suffer on your own.
I'm sorry for this late confession.
You can't go anywhere now.
I'm not going to let you go anywhere.
Yoon...
The reason why I came to you is not to tell you to not go to the U.S.
It's to tell you to come to me. And that I won't hide my feelings anymore.
From now, you just follow me.
I'll take care of everything.
There will be a lot of hard times.
It won't be easy.
But I'll never let you go.
I'll never let you cry on your own again.
Where are you?
I'm at the cafe parking lot.
Okay, I'll wait.
He should wash his car.
Oh, you're here.
Did you eat dinner...
I held her back.
We'll be going in.
Let's go in.
Sit down and listen.
You...
How...
Yoon...
How could you...
I'm sorry.
If I lose her now, I thought I would lose her forever.
Then you should've lost her forever.
What am I supposed to do?
If you tell me you're sorry, what am I supposed to do?
Me Ah Ri, you better stop crying!
Say it to me.
Whatever you have to say, I'll listen.
I'll be responsible for it.
-Yoon. -I thought it over a thousand times.
And every time, it didn't feel right.
That's why I held back. I tried so hard.
But when I heard that Me Ah Ri's leaving, I thought the world would end.
And I regretted it at that moment. It wasn't something that I could just avoid.
I couldn't just pretend to not care for her.
I should've let her know about my feelings sooner.
I'm sorry.
For making Me Ah Ri cry so much until now.
I'll be good to her.
For the rest of my life, I'll be good to her.
Tae San, this is my first and last request.
Just this once, please forgive me.
You made this decision knowing you would lose me?
Me Ah Ri, is this really your happiness?
Tae San... Please forgive me once.
I've forgiven you too many times.
That's what I'm regretting at this point.
I didn't know that I'd lose both of you like this.
I believed in you two.
I guess I was the only foolish one.
Tae San...
From now on, I lost the two of you.
Me Ah Ri, get out of this house.
This is no longer your house.
And I'm no longer your brother.
This girl, she was always good at talking back. How could she just leave like that?
If she was going to be so obedient, why didn't she ever listen to me?
-She's smart like that. -Do you think the two of them met?
-Do you think he even went? -I think he did. And I think they met.
Why?
Because I'm a man who lost someone and found her again.
I've experienced losing heaven in a single moment.
When you're in love, I guess you can't even put on hand lotion by yourself.
What time is it? Why aren't they calling?
You weren't like this when you were dating Min Sook?
You want to do everything for her, and feel nervous letting her do something by herself.
I get so upset when she eats by herself.
How can she eat by herself when I didn't feed her?
I'm sorry, I'm feeling a bit nauseous.
Seriously...
If you keep that up, she's going to kiss the window again.
A normal lady kissing someone else's store window.
How did you know?
It's Attorney Choi.
Hello?
Now?
-It must've been a hard decision. -I feel embarrassed.
No, this is the coolest side of you I've seen so far.
How can I look cool when I've caused so much trouble to a friend?
May I say something as a person who's gone through similar troubles?
At first, I couldn't even take a step because the trouble seemed so big.
But at one moment, I realized that the troubles I carried all came from the heart.
As much as I loved, and as much as I was happy, the troubles seemed heavier.
I must've loved him a lot.
-I hope Tae San will feel the same. -I'm sure he will.
Don't worry so much.
And although it's a bit late, I want to say thank you to you.
For what?
I found out that the four of you came to the cafe and helped me out.
You're the one who will take care of everything legally.
But thinking about it, I worry they may really call you.
If they do, please let me know.
I don't want the four of you to worry without my knowing.
If they call, I'll let you know. As your lawyer.
You're always taking care of Me Ah Ri, I want to do that much for you.
-Thank you. -But how did you find out we were there?
You ruined a few things, didn't pay, and just left.
Helping is helping, but money is money. So I'm going to make you guys pay.
If Tae San keeps disapproving of you and Me Ah Ri, should I make him pay for everything?
What? Yoon held you back from leaving?
-Your brother knows? -I went to see him with Yoon.
But he told us to get out, so we did.
He said he no longer has a sister like me.
-You left because he told you to leave? -What else could I do?
-He's totally angry. -You still shouldn't have left him alone!
You can stay alone, right? Lock up the doors.
Thank you.
Don't be. Take care of your man.
I'll take care of mine. I'm going to tell him you're here.
He'll be worried.
I'm here.
Where are you?
The lights aren't even on.
Are you okay?
Me Ah Ri's at my house.
It's okay. It'll be okay.
Bad girl... How can she do this to her brother?
Me Ah Ri, I'm going to be really mean to her.
How dare she make my man cry?
Honey, I'm home.
How come I couldn't reach you all day today?
You said you were in the parking lot, and you never came.
Honey, Yoon and Me Ah Ri...
-You went to a motel. -Motel?
They went to a motel? When?
You think I'm kidding around?
You went to a motel, Mr. Lee Jung Rok.
What? Me?
What're you talking about?
Oh, I did.
Tae San left to Chun Cheon in a hurry, so I went to bring him clothes.
You don't even show it in your face, and you even have an alibi.
I guess it's time your acting got better.
You're accusing an innocent man again, like at the party.
I mean it. Ask Tae San.
You told him what to say?
-If you act this bold, I'll get angry! -I didn't tell him to say anything!
I'm going crazy.
I know I've done wrong in the past, but honey, I'm really innocent.
Ask Me Ah Ri. She's the one who asked me to go.
You want to earn time? How can I call a girl who's in the plane to the U.S.?
She didn't go.
Yoon held her back.
Anyway, call her.
You don't think I can?
You'll really call her?
You shouldn't make a fool of yourself in front of Me Ah Ri.
Let go. I'll make a fool of myself.
Yes, it's Min Sook.
I want to ask one thing.
Your boss told me he went to Chun Cheon for you. Is that true?
Yes, I fought with my brother. I asked Jung Rok to go.
Why? He's not back yet?
No. I understand.
What did she say? It's true, right?
What's wrong? She said it's not true?
-This girl, why's she joking about that? -She said it's true.
She did ask you to go.
But, why are you crying?
Because you feel embarrassed?
What's wrong with me?
-Let's get a divorce. -Why're you doing that again?
You always say that.
If you're embarrassed, just say it. Don't talk about divorce.
If you do that again, I'll be mad.
I'm going to wash up.
How is school? Fun?
Amusement parks are more fun than schools.
-Did you make a lot of new friends? -Just one.
You made a new friend? What's his name?
Kim Dong Yup.
I'm picturing someone chivalrous and manly.
But he's not smart.
-You don't want to make another friend? -Was Uncle Jung Rok a smart student?
What's your favorite period? Don't tell me lunch time or recess time.
One minute before lunch, and one minute before recess.
I like those periods.
What about one minute before you met your biological father?
I'm tired. I'm going to sleep.
You asked my woman to take care of your woman.
Yeah.
Tae San kicked her out.
Really?
Your face is fine, I guess Tae San didn't beat you up.
Not today.
Do you remember?
When Me Ah Ri's classmate in elementary school bruised her forehead?
Tae San went crazy.
He went to that boy's house, and asked if they knew what kind of a girl Me Ah Ri was.
That she would become Miss Korea, and what would they do about the bruise.
I remember.
I went with him.
We didn't know then that it's her height, not the bruise, that would make her ineligible.
Why are you asking?
He went that crazy over a little bruise on her forehead.
But I bruised her entire life. And to Tae San, it's betrayal.
Will he be able to forgive me?
Why are all our loves so war-like?
How can I help you?
I'm fine, you guys should all take Tae San's side.
I should suffer.
Me Ah Ri means so much to Tae San.
Your day must've been long. Get some rest.
Tell Captain Choi to prepare for the Attic Town presentation rehearsal.
-I'll check in 10 minutes. -Yes, sir.
I'm sorry I'm late.
I guess you didn't sleep at all. Are you okay?
You told me that if I kept pretending I was okay, I really would be okay.
How do I look? Do I look okay?
No.
Really?
-Did Yoon go to work? -Did Tae San go to work?
That's what Yoon just texted me. Do you want to reply yourself?
Don't act that way. When it comes to Me Ah Ri, I'm on your side.
Why?
Yoon told me to be on your side. He said he's okay.
-What the heck, right? -You...
You don't believe me?
You want me to kick Yoon out? And tell my girlfriend to kick Me Ah Ri out?
Fine. I'll do that.
They'll learn when they're out on the streets.
Why don't you just get a place for them to live together?
I'm going in for the Attic Town presentation rehearsal.
It's okay. I'm going in.
Okay.
There are 44 houses, all with their own character. They share a common yard.
Each house will reflect the life-style of its developer.
Sun-house, weathervane-house, a house that will play as the life's background...
Each house has its own theme. The rebirth of the yard and attic will give rebirth to family life.
And the rebirth of neighbors.
Should I do it again?
Don't worry about Director Im.
He's going through a family crisis.
I heard everything.
A cheating household, a really big house... Sounds good.
Good job.
Why're you laughing?
I've been too quiet lately, right?
Should I make you settle the accounts for the first half of the year?
Overall, it sounds good, but it's a bit too rigid.
There's no humor.
What is humor?
A method to relay the info gathered through deep observations.
That's right. A cheating household, a really big house...
This is not humor, it's ....
"Oh my God!"
Just one thing.
Cooling/heating system and security system...
Things that people living in condos may have negative preconceptions about...
We will use a cooling system to control the heat and air.
-That's it. -Yes.
My Director Im... Seems lacking, but works really well.
What do you want for lunch? My treat.
Eat by yourself. I've got plans.
With who?
-You... -Yes.
I took off the ring.
I'll put it simply.
If you brought a 24 year old as your girlfriend, I would say this, "You thief!"
But that 24 year old is my sister. How can I make sense out of this?
As your friend, Jung Ah is a really painful past. But as a brother, it's a past that's hard to accept.
Put yourself in my shoes.
-If you were me, would you allow it? -I understand your reaction.
I think it's to be expected.
If you understand, why are you creating this situation?
Why are you making me say this? Why?
I can't give up.
I'm being selfish and I know I'm being a bad guy. And I can understand that you feel robbed.
You do this when you know?
I didn't trust Me Ah Ri, but I trusted you.
I'm sorry.
But, Tae San...I can't stand to see Me Ah Ri cry because of me.
That's why I don't want to make her cry anymore.
What about her dreams?
What about her future?
To be honest, I don't like Me Ah Ri working in front of a machine making bags.
But, she says it's her dream.
I wanted her to learn more and experience more to make that dream a reality.
I don't want Me Ah Ri to lose her dream, either.
Tae San, Me Ah Ri's my dream, too.
Whether she becomes a designer or something else,
I want to try my best to make my dream come true.
I'm going to look for a house. You want to come with me?
Do Jin's going, too.
You should enjoy the time with him.
I'm not in a good situation, but I'm cheering on your love.
You'll be okay? Se Ra's being so mean to you.
It's so unexpected. I didn't know she liked my brother that much.
In Se Ra's life, there are only two types of people, friends and enemies.
You're in trouble. I'll be back.
See you.
Come in.
A lady lived by herself here, so everything's very clean.
Is this a house for the two of you?
It looks like that would be a good idea, right?
I'll be living here with another girl.
I'm going to live with Se Ra. Now, I'm the homeowner.
You're happy about that? It's bad news to me.
The price is really good, so a lot of people are interested.
If you like it, you should sign the contract soon. Before someone else takes it.
-Look around. -Thank you.
I guess we look like newly-weds.
Why are you dreaming in the middle of the day? We probably look like second-marriage couple.
Are you doing this because I have a son?
I meant that we're past the age of marriage.
I guess you feel self-pity and guilt.
I should have a small weakness like that. If I'm too bling bling, I'd seem like a movie star.
Let's take this house. As a professional, this house seems the best.
As a professional, what exactly looks good?
It's the closest to my house.
How did you hold back doing this until now?
I held back until now, so I'm going to do this often now.
The condition of the walls are good.
If you give color accent on one wall...
We'll be done soon. The space will come alive.
-You'll do the painting for me, right? -You want to use this professional in that way?
Bug...
-Mr. Yi Soo, you're the best. -What?
You didn't know? If you can kill bugs, you're a man.
Let's sign the contract.
Will it be okay to clean and paint this week?
Of course.
This is really hard.
If I wasn't here, you wouldn't even have dreamed of doing it.
If you weren't here, it would all be finished by now.
Why would you piggy back when there's a ladder?
I didn't know you would really get on.
I put my life on the line to help you. I could've hurt my back.
That would've been really bad news for you.
That's sexual harassment. If the person feels victimized, it's sexual harassment.
-Is that a victimized face? -It's a longing face.
You're all talk.
I told you I'd do something different.
-You think I'm the type to hold back? -You're asking for trouble.
Get back down.
I'll let it go this time.
How's Tae San? Me Ah Ri's doing okay.
He's not budging. There's no compromise when it comes to Me Ah Ri.
-I think Me Ah Ri's really brave. -So is Seo Yi Soo.
I guess so.
I'll build you a nice house later.
Big, spacious, sunny, and airy...
A house nobody abandons.
Where in Canada are your parents?
In Toronto.
Even in the middle of the summer, it's cool in the shade.
-Until when did you live with them? -As soon as I went to college, they left.
I wanted to take a year off to go to a better school,
but mom forced me to go, so she could leave.
-I take after my mother's personality. -It must've been a happy family.
We weren't rich, but I didn't have any hardships.
My parents were very close, and they treated me like a third wheel.
At the time, I felt sad. But I realized later that it was a blessing.
Your confidence and laid-back personality must've come from there.
I have confidence and a laid-back personality, too. But you're different from me.
I tried hard to have that personality, and you naturally have it.
Someone who tried hard can recognize someone who naturally has that disposition.
It makes them even more depressed.
I didn't have a happy childhood.
And my family was nothing to boast about.
Look at me.
Do you know something?
Your happiness will increase from your 36th year on.
And the beginning of that happiness is from this moment forward.
Can I keep my promise that I'd make you happy?
Tomorrow more than today.
The day after tomorrow more than tomorrow.
You'll be happy.
I promise.
I'm going to trust you again.
This time, I'm going to keep the promise to death.
Is this the cab service?
I'll call you back.
You were taking cabs carrying that?
I use Yi Soo's car sometimes.
I was going to go see you.
I washed the car.
And I put the spare tire in. Fuel efficient and dignified.
Thanks.
Here.
I'm moving the day after tomorrow, so the rest of the money...
You drive. Take me home.
-When's the move? -I called the moving company, don't worry.
Having a stranger do it is different from a family member doing it.
On a day like that, you should have some men there.
I'm not a college student moving dorms.
Me Ah Ri will be there, too. You probably don't want to run into her.
Where's she sleeping?
Sometimes she falls asleep on the living room sofa after watching TV.
Sometimes, she sleeps on a blanket in Yi Soo's room.
-You guys don't cook in that house. -Why're you worrying so much?
If you just open the delivery book, there's every type of food from Korean to Mexican.
Did you talk to Yoon?
I just said what I wanted, and he just said what he wanted.
If you're just looking at it from Me Ah Ri's point, it could be happiness.
I met the man I love at the age of 36. She met him at the age of 24.
That's 12 more years...
-of happiness... -Stop taking her side.
Even if she was 34, I would be against it. But she's only 24.
You know how mean I am to her? Should I cause a scene in front of Yoon?
What should I do? Just tell me.
I majored in physical education. They're all dead.
Do Jin will be there, and I'll send Jung Rok. Have a good move.
Don't worry.
-We're here. -Welcome.
Come here, you.
How can you think about leaving to the U.S. without saying good bye?
I ended up not going. Ms. Seo, Do Jin's here.
Why did you change? Isn't the dress uncomfortable?
No, not at all. I spilled something before.
You're something else. If it wasn't the moving day, you'd wear a bikini.
-You got no right to say anything. -You're showing off that Do Jin's here?
Thanks to someone, Tae San can't even come.
I'll go organize the clothes.
It's not like that. This is what I usually wear.
Why didn't you put on something even nicer? Are you done organizing?
I have to start now.
Follow me.
What should I help with?
I did this a lot when I was young.
-Take your time. -Okay.
You look good in those uniforms.
Oh, why's the book here?
-Switch places. -Who told you to wear a dress like that?
You can even kill bugs. You think this flower pattern suits you?
Oh, bug.
Worry about yourself.
Just get to work.
-What number? -What?
1, 2, 3, 4, or 5? The one that I liked, number 3?
Number 3, my butt!
Number 2?
Oh, number 2... What about yesterday?
Cat underwear.
Your expression is so funny. What's wrong with you?
Oh, I was thinking about something else. My nails got all ruined thanks to the move.
Me, too. But when are we going to eat?
-You're hungry? -I worked all day, of course, I'm hungry.
Yeah, Tae San's not hungry. He can't eat anything.
I'm not feeling at ease, either. I just don't show it.
Show it. You don't show it at all.
-Have you seen Yoon since then? -We talk everyday...
And he stopped by the other day.
We can't do anything until my brother's anger dies down.
-Don't move. -Will it be long?
-She's hungry. -No, it's a fast-drying manicure.
-It won't be long. -You met Tae San a few days ago.
How is he?
-Director Im! -Nice shot!
What? Why are you here?
The move went well. The house is a little small, but not bad for two women.
And Me Ah Ri feels right at home.
Me Ah Ri's worried about you.
When?
We brought pain-relieving medicine.
-You want the patch or the spray? -You want to go to sauna?
We're always on your side. You know, right?
Just leave. You're not letting me concentrate.
Go, go, go...
Attorney Choi! Nice pitching!
-Nice pitching. -What do you want?
The move went well. And Me Ah Ri feels right at home.
Me Ah Ri's worried about you.
Did you check on Tae San?
-Yes. -No.
Seriously...
You should at least say the same thing.
-We're going to check on him now. -We just saw him.
Seriously...
What's Tae San doing?
You're throwing, he's hitting.
We brought pain relieving medicine.
You want the patch or the spray?
You want to go to the sauna?
We're on your side. You know, right?
You did that to Tae San, too, right?
But, we're still cute, right?
Let's go.
Why are you here so early? I told you I would wait for you.
It just happened that way.
-But why aren't you looking at me? -I can't look at you.
But I want to see you.
Lift up your face.
You're really going to go with that concept?
It's not a concept. I'm really nervous.
I don't know why I'm so nervous.
-You didn't throw out that bag? -How could I?
When you made it for me.
Let's go eat.
So we went to go see Tae San and Yoon, and told each of them we're on their side.
So?
That's why I couldn't get your phone calls.
I can't be all friendly with you when Tae San and Yoon are half-dying.
I'm their friend.
Why?
You don't believe me again? You want to call Do Jin?
No, you don't trust him either.
Then, Yoon?
Is he not trust-worthy, either?
Oh, the pharmacist! I went to the pharmacy to buy pain relieving medicine.
She'll remember me.
Seriously...
You really don't trust me?
No, I can't trust you anymore.
Even if you carry a CCTV with you, I still can't believe you.
-Why are you doing this? -Others think I have everything.
It's true. I have a lot.
But...
You were everything I had.
Why are you crying again?
You wear wedding bands since the husband and wife can't always be together.
The husband and wife put their spouse closest to them.
They wear the wedding band on the ring finger that's connected to their hearts.
But, I want to take this ring off now.
I mean it.
Even if you tell me that 1+1=2, I still can't believe you.
What did he talk to that woman about? Is that call from a man or a woman?
Is he smiling at her?
Everyday, I visit heaven and hell.
I'm sorry. I know I did a lot of wrong.
But honey, I no longer take off my ring. I mean it.
I don't do that anymore.
But, now I want to take it off.
Even if you don't, I do.
I'm asking you...
Let's get a divorce.
I pity myself.
I feel like I'm crazy, endlessly suspecting you.
Honey...
I'm asking you...
Please let me go.
Let's get a divorce.
Please let me go before I totally go insane.
Please...
Science Teacher Park Hyun Joo
Hello, is this Ms. Park Hyun Joo from Orange High School?
Are you enjoying the dinner?
My husband always takes me to places like this. I enjoy places like this.
But can I get dinner treats from a parent?
I'm not treating you as a parent, but as Ms. Seo's boyfriend.
If you like wine...
How did you know I only drink wine? Did you tell him, Ms. Seo?
-That... -I can see it in your face.
Classy... High-class...
-I wish those things weren't so noticeable. -It's very pricey.
Really?
Then just pick out one that's the most expensive.
It's my honor that I can treat you.
I'm so jealous of you, Ms. Seo. Your boyfriend is like a movie star.
You think my husband is lacking?
Everyone thinks he looks like Jang Dong Gun.
Oh, okay.
Since you're so beautiful.
Good looking men all have something in common.
Ms. Seo, you met a good man.
Yes...
-Ms. Seo, you're drinking a lot. -I'm having so much fun.
Cheers... One shot.
Cheers, one shot.
Please take care of Ms. Seo. I know she can be careless.
Ms. Seo is like my sister.
I'm sure you already know. But unfortunately, I'm the only flaw in this woman's life.
What do you mean a flaw? Nobody thinks that way.
That's a good thing.
I want her to be happy doing what she likes for a long time.
Please help her, so she can do that.
I'm asking you.
Everyone here is on Ms. Seo's side.
Here, Ms. Seo. Cheers.
Are you okay?
Yes.
I didn't drink that much.
Thank you.
You tried hard.
I can do this anytime.
Let's sit here for awhile.
Okay.
Should we listen to the radio?
Let's.
I want my hot lips to touch your soft lips.
I want your heart to know my love.
Should I change the station?
Touch me. Embrace me. Don't stop.
I feel like flying.
My eyes, my hands, my lips...
Let's start now. Slowly, getting hot.
Don't be scared.
In front of my eyes, the sun will shine the way.
Don't stop.
Don't go home, baby.
I have a gift to give you right here.
Don't go home today, baby.
What kind of radio reads the person's mind so well?
How can all these songs be so sexy?
I know.
When I hear these songs in the future, it'll remind me of today.
I can make it even more memorable.
What will you do if I don't send you home today?
I don't want to send Seo Yi Soo home today.
