(Episode 47)
Joon Seo, what did I tell you?
I said you have to let me know before you go anywhere.
Grandma told me...
that you're not my real mom.
She's lying, right?
Mommy will...
I'll explain everything, Joon Seo.
No, I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear anything!
Joon Seo.
Mom, I promise you...
that I'll be a really good boy.
If I did anything wrong, please forgive me.
I'm sorry, Mom.
No, you've done nothing wrong, Joon Seo.
It's all my fault.
I'm really sorry.
No, Mom.
I'm sorry.
Joon Seo.
Ji Young.
Joon Seo must be shocked.
Try to comfort him.
Okay.
He's probably very confused now.
I'll spend some time with him and explain everything.
Mom, I promise you that I'll be a really good boy.
If I did anything wrong, please forgive me.
I'm sorry, Mom.
Mom...
I'm sorry about everything.
Hello?
Honey, Hyeon Woo says that he can see clearly now.
Are you serious?
What about these letters? Do you see them?
Yes.
My gosh. What about this headline here?
"Beautiful Day with Wild Cherry Blossoms..."
- "Festival". - Yes, that's right.
- "Canola blossoms"? - My gosh.
"The entire country is covered with colorful flowers at the moment."
Gosh, my sweetheart!
You can really see now. You can see again!
You heard that, right? Hyeon Woo can see every letter in the newspaper.
You can see almost everything. You can see again.
Seriously?
My gosh, you can see now.
Where are you now?
I'll be home soon.
I'll see you shortly.
Where's Joon Seo?
He fell asleep on the way, so he's with Na Kyung now.
Is he all right?
- Yes. - Where was he?
I think he got off at the wrong bus stop on his way to the office.
What? Why did he want to go to the office?
He said he had a question for his mom.
He said you told him...
about his birth mother.
What? You told him?
He said his friends kept asking him about it.
There have been articles about it everywhere,
so I figured he should be aware of it.
Gosh, how foolish.
Why bother with the pointless lawsuit and cause all this trouble?
Neither of them deserves to be called Joon Seo's mother.
Why did you go wandering in your little feet?
I'm sorry, Joon Seo.
Mommy is sorry.
(My Notes)
(Chewy rice cakes with sauce, Spicy tteokbokki, not soy sauce)
(Visit Gaudi's works)
(Travel alone)
Did you pack everything you need?
Yes, I did.
Are you sure can do this alone?
It's the last wish on my bucket list.
Don't worry, I'll be fine.
Now that I have to let you even go traveling on your own,
I'm getting a bit upset.
You should be proud that I'm growing up!
Oh, alright.
Hyeon Woo, take this with you.
It's hard-boiled eggs and a can of soda.
These snacks are a must when you're traveling by train.
Let's go.
- Thank you, Grandma. - Sure.
We'll stop by the hospital to have his eyes checked out,
then drop him off at Seoul Station, and head straight to court.
Alright.
Have a nice trip, Hyeon Woo.
And call us regularly.
Okay, Grandma.
Mom.
Yes?
Good luck in court today.
I'll be supporting you no matter how it ends.
Alright. Thank you, son.
Hyeon Woo is such a thoughtful boy.
It's obvious he's acting this way because of Joon Seo's trial...
that there was no way we could object.
Goodness.
Hyeon Woo always talked about...
wanting to travel by train.
Is today the last trial?
- Yes. - You have to be strong.
If you don't win this time, you may never get Joon Seo back.
You know that, right?
I do.
Don't go easy on Na Kyung again this time.
We have to end this.
Go on inside, mother.
Yes, Attorney Yoon?
Ms. Woo...
declared that she won't bring Joon Seo to court.
What should I do?
That's good.
I'll accept it.
Alright.
See you later.
Okay.
(Transfer Request of Child Custody)
(Cheonji Group Chief Legal Officer, Woo Na Kyung)
So you've come up this far.
What are you doing?
Is this not enough for you?
How much further were you planning on going...
that you had to contact the donor and turn my son blind?
(Cheonji Group Chief Legal Officer, Woo Na Kyung)
I would like to ask the plaintiff one last question.
Do you not regret...
coming all this way?
Please answer the question.
Do you not regret...
coming all this way, Attorney?
I am here at the Seoul Family Court.
The trial of TV star Seo Ji Young is in session.
Seo Ji Young was originally an announcer,
who hosted the show "Speak of Women" in the past,
and in the midst of hosting the show "What's Your Choice",
she has been in the spotlight for her current lawsuit.
However, not long ago, she was involved in a scandal,
regarding an affair, which remains to be seen,
how it may affect the results of the trial.
Please answer my question.
I asked, "Do you not regret..."
"coming all this way?"
The reason I'm here...
is because I decided that I can no longer...
leave my child in your hands.
I wanted to punish you, Ms. Woo.
But it turns out that my child is the one suffering.
Do I regret it, you ask?
I do regret it.
In order to justify saving my sick child,
I gave birth to my ex-husband's son...
but did not raise him.
Choosing to give him up to you...
is what I regret it.
And for the past 10 years,
although you raised the boy with love,
I regret not ever being truly thankful...
for it.
If I had been...
truly thankful to you...
If it were my sincere feelings...
we wouldn't be here today.
Am I right, Ms. Woo?
Your Honor.
I would like to speak with my client for a moment.
I'm sorry, Counselor.
I would like to retract my request for child custody.
I'm sorry, Your Honor.
You may return to your seat.
You made the right choice.
This is so you. Good job.
We have breaking news.
Seo Ji Young claimed to dismiss all charges.
We do not know the reason yet...
Yes. Seo Ji Young regrets filing the request...
and no longer wants to hurt her children.
She is giving up custody from what we have been told.
Let's go home now, Na Kyung.
Who said you could dismiss it?
You've already torn me apart.
You think dismissing the charges will end this?
Finish it.
Na Kyung.
You think giving him up...
will prove you as his real mother?
You think that will prove your heart as the real mother.
It's not what you're thinking.
You think you're the only mother?
I'm a mother, too.
I am.
You should take her home.
Hyeon Woo's eyes are getting better.
Is that true?
It hasn't come back completely, but if they're treated well,
the doctors say he can recover up to 80 percent of his eyesight.
That's so good to hear.
We'll get going now.
(Defendant's seat)
There are a lot of reporters outside.
- They're coming! - They're coming!
Did you really conciliate the donor?
As a lawyer, isn't that a crime?
Do you intend on returning the child to Seo Ji Young?
Why did you stand as Seo Ji Young's witness?
Please give us a word about your wife, Woo Na Kyung.
Can you accept your wife's actions?
Does your silence mean you admit to the charges?
- We will end it here. - Do you have anything to say?
- What will happen to the child? - Ms. Woo Na Kyung?
- Please give us a word! - Excuse me!
- Please make space! - Ms. Woo Na Kyung!
Excuse me! Stop taking photos!
- Ms. Woo Na Kyung! - Stop taking photos!
Answer the question.
He asked you.
"Can you accept your wife's actions?"
I'm sure...
you already know my answer.
Then I guess there's only one thing left.
It was snowing a while ago.
When did it all melt away?
Spring snowflakes are always so sad.
They don't realize that they're out of season...
and melt away...
before even touching the ground.
Honey!
Come out here! It's spring snowflakes!
These fools don't realize that they're out of season and fall.
But they're so pretty.
They look like cherry blossoms.
Is it true...
that you conciliated Hyeon Woo's donor?
Is that how you ruined his eyes?
Hyeon Woo's eyes are healing, Father.
Is that true?
Goodness, how grateful.
That doesn't...
void you of your actions.
I absolutely cannot...
accept you as my daughter-in-law.
Father...
You know better than anyone else,
how proud I was of you.
You took all my unpleasant tasks without refusing.
Your efforts were praiseworthy.
That's why I...
That's why I wanted to give you one last chance.
But now...
I can't stand to look at you,
for even a second.
Now...
get out of this house!
How about Joon Seo, Mother?
We'll keep him for now.
Go pack your things.
Go in and rest.
Will I not be able to see Joon Seo now?
I think it's best that you stay away for now.
I thought I would never be able to hear him call me "Mom" again.
But he called me "Mom".
I didn't want to lose that place.
But...
I have always worried about losing my place.
If I let him go...
that will be the end...
of my relationship with Joon Seo.
I know how you're feeling.
Your love for Joon Seo...
proved you as a mother.
I know your feelings for me too.
I just didn't acknowledge it.
Maybe I just pretended not to know.
It was my own feelings towards you...
that I could not forgive.
That's what made it harder for you.
I was a coward.
Thank you.
For saying it like that.
I wanted to be happy.
Loving Joon Seo,
loving you,
and loving my work.
But...
I don't think I was happy, even for a moment.
That's because it wasn't mine.
I was always afraid of losing it all.
It's because you can never be happy,
by stepping over someone else's pain.
The same goes for both you and me.
Even if I let it all go...
will I ever be happy?
Try starting from the beginning after letting it all go.
I'll help you.
(Final Episode)
(Cheonji Group, Chief Legal Officer, Woo Na Kyung)
That didn't do anything wrong to be thrown out.
I don't want it thrown out by someone else besides me.
So I'm doing it myself.
What's your plan?
I have a lot to do.
There are many secrets of Cheonji Group to disclose.
And I'll start with you and Seung Hoon.
Oh, yes?
You should be able to do it.
It sounds fun.
It's better Seung Hoon dropped the investment issue.
The other party included way too many hidden conditions.
They did a clever job making it impossible to countervail,
so you would've lost Smart City if you signed that contract.
Perhaps,
even Seung Hoon too.
What do you mean?
It was very similar to his father's case.
His father's grandfather...
was cornered to the end of a cliff...
and ended up requesting Father for the M and A.
Father didn't want to get involved because it was his in-law's land.
What?
I persuaded him.
The land was going to go in someone else's hands...
if Cheonji Construction didn't take it over.
You want me to believe you?
That's yours to decide.
I'm telling you this...
so you let go of your hatred against him.
You can't even let it go, but insist I do?
Like you said,
I'm just a stranger to your family.
The information about you and Seung Hoon is in here.
It's the original, and I didn't make any copy of this.
Do whatever you want with it.
Didn't you say you had a lot to do with it?
Oh, right.
Go see Jae Wook.
He said he has something to tell you.
("Cheonji Group's 20-year Master Plan")
My master plan was to have you...
be in charge of the Smart City Project...
from the beginning.
And I was impressed...
by your improvements...
throughout the progress.
But I hope you realized...
just how frightening and fierce this industry is.
Let's think of it the long way.
It's about making a city.
It's bound to take 10 to 20 years.
Read over it,
and if you have any objections,
challenge me again.
Okay.
I'll try to find flaws...
which you can't deny.
Seung Hoon, you need to study a little more.
How about I learn from Uncle?
I know I'm strong with theory.
Really?
All right,
then start with carrying stuff.
Hey.
He's too small for it. He can't carry heavy stuff.
Mom.
I'm small, but I'm muscular.
Let me see.
- Here. - Gosh.
Why don't we go play golf in some warm country?
Here you go.
I've got a passionate color for you.
Gosh, thank you.
He prepared gifts for us?
Is this the new product from your company
That's unique.
It's going popular among young people too.
I wear one whenever I go play golf too.
I heard you're retiring from your honorary chairman position...
during this general shareholders' meeting.
That's right. I've done enough work.
I want to leave the company to my children...
and go enjoy fishing with my wife.
That sounds good.
- Let's eat. - All right.
- You there? - Yes?
- Have you seen Joon Seo? - Isn't he in the main house?
I'm asking you because he isn't there.
Where...
Joon Seo went to hang out with his mom.
To where?
She said...
she wanted to have some time with him.
Will it be okay?
Don't worry.
She needs time too.
It's so cool.
Isn't it your first time seeing this kind of stuff?
Right.
- It's so cool. - It's shown on screen.
1, 2, 3.
One more time. 1, 2, 3.
- You're good at it. - Thanks.
Come on.
You stuck too much on my face, Joon Seo.
(Joon Seo)
(Mom, Joon Seo)
"Mom, Joon Seo".
Joon Seo,
you're so pretty when you're asleep.
You're good at sports...
and studying.
You're a well-behaved son too.
I will...
love you all my life.
You may forget about me.
Because I will remember you.
It's okay.
Thank you...
for loving me, son.
I got a call to be here.
What's your name?
Kim Jae Wook.
Let me escort you. This way.
It's this room.
Can you unlock the door?
(Divorce Agreement)
Dad.
You woke up, Joon Seo?
Where's Mom?
Joon Seo.
Let's go home.
Where's Mom? Mom!
Dad, where is she?
Mom!
Where are you, Mom?
Mom.
Dad, where's Mom?
Where's Mom?
Take Mom with us.
I won't go without her.
Take her with us.
I won't go without Mom.
Bring her here.
Mom. Mom!
Mom...
Thank you for your hard work.
It has been my pleasure.
Woo Na Kyung applied...
for the cancellation of her attorney certificate to the Bar Association.
Why?
Because she broke the law regarding the donor issue.
Even if she didn't apply for it,
her certificate would've been terminated.
I see.
And she's going through the divorce proceedings.
She gave up on the company shares,
so Chairman Kim wants to guarantee her some alimony.
She won't have much trouble with her living expenses.
On a tab again?
You think I'm doing this for charity?
Come on. Don't be like this.
- Get lost. - Gosh.
Don't ever come here again.
I'll come again.
Goodness. Poor my life.
Everyone around me is dying to rip me off. What a wretched life.
Goodness.
Welcome.
A bottle of soju and sashimi, please.
I ran away and struggled so much...
not to stand here.
In 20 years,
I'm back again.
Well, I had a decent life.
I became a lawyer.
I had a husband.
I became a mother.
You did everything there to do, Na Kyung.
So why would you want more?
Na Kyung!
What?
Was the amount not enough? Is that why you came after me?
Are you here to pay back the money?
You're right.
You gave me 30 dollars to go back.
That's a long time ago.
The accrued interest should be two times the original amount.
Why are you still here?
That upsets me even more.
I thought you abandoned me to enjoy some kind of luxury.
I enjoyed watching your show.
I expected you to come show off once you became successful.
That's why I stayed.
But you never came even once.
Determined brat.
I didn't want to live like you.
You should've held onto that decent life until the end then.
Why would you come here like this?
I guess I can't run away from my fate.
Like mother, like daughter after all.
You make your own fate.
Don't blame me for it.
So are you saying it's unfair?
You don't even want me to blame you?
Blame me as much as you want if that makes you feel better.
I'm...
just apologetic...
that you're blaming a mom like me.
- Mr. Song. - Yes?
This mail was delivered to you.
Really?
(From Kim Jae Wook)
(Application for Dissolution of Adoption)
What is it?
It says...
that I'm Hyeon Woo's dad.
And you weren't?
You're right.
That was silly of me.
Oh, right. I heard your wife...
will be hosting the second season of "Speak of Women".
It got reported?
Her name is already up on the search keyword list.
Really?
That's a false report.
What do you mean?
Didn't you want to host it?
I have something more important than that.
Lunch is ready. Go eat before you go.
Okay.
What's more important than the show?
You said you needed an apprentice in your workroom.
I have a recommendation.
You're recommending someone? I'll try seeing them then.
But she's pretty aged.
Age has nothing to do with being an apprentice.
Don't take back what you just said.
I mean, who is it?
Me.
- You? - Yes.
I want to learn how to make furniture.
Why all of a sudden?
I want to...
stick with you 24 hours a day.
24 hours a day?
That's a bit...
What is this?
You don't like it?
That's not what I mean.
Sticking together 24 hours a day...
means sharing everything about my income and spending.
Have you been saving a nest egg for yourself?
No, that's not true.
Where's your bankbook?
- Let me see it. - It's not here.
- Where is it? - Gosh.
- Here it is. - No, not this.
- What do you mean, no? - Not this one.
- Let me see. - No.
- What's wrong with you? - Goodness.
Fine, let's stick together 24 hours a day.
You're here, Hyeon Woo.
How have you been, Grandpa and Grandma?
Good.
My grandson looks taller than before.
I got a little taller.
Are you feeling better now, Grandma?
I have body aches whenever seasons change.
It's the age thing, so don't worry.
Mom made this jujube tea for you.
Oh, really?
Right, your mom is good at making jujube tea.
Send her my gratitude.
Okay.
Nothing for me?
Oh, well...
- For you... - Oh, please.
You can't get things for free.
Make some more contributions if you want to get anything.
So you're going camping with your brother?
Yes, Grandpa.
Come stay here during the next holiday, okay?
Okay.
- Hyeon Woo. - Oh, gosh.
Let's hurry.
Okay.
- We'll be off now. - Okay.
I'll give them a ride and visit the construction site in Gangwon-do.
Oh, hey. Why is the construction getting delayed?
It's none of your business.
It's because of a civil complaint.
- That's... - All right, kids.
Hurry on.
- I'll see you later. - Okay.
Goodbye, Grandma and Grandpa.
Take good care of your little brother.
Okay.
- We'll be off then. - Okay.
Hurry, Hyeon Woo.
Goodness.
Na Kyung was good with this kind of problem.
- Hyo Seon. - Yes?
Let's have a cup of this jujube tea.
Okay, ma'am.
(Joon Seo, Mom)
- Enjoy. - Thank you.
No one has a conscience.
I did everything they asked me for,
and now they take it for granted.
Can't they have the manner of buying a cup of coffee before they ask?
What is it this time?
It's about Joon Woo's dad upstairs.
His grandson hasn't paid him for his work...
for three months.
What's the size of their ship?
Overdue wages regarding boats less than 2t...
aren't subject to the application of the law.
It seemed pretty big.
Tell him to come over.
I can write a certification of contents for him.
There's no need to.
Just give him a few words of advice.
What's your relationship with him by the way?
What do you mean? We're just neighbors.
You looked quite close though.
It's nothing like that.
That hurt.
What nice weather.
It's good.
Why don't we take a walk by the beach and enjoy the weather?
Just enjoy the view from here. We don't have to go all the way there.
Seeing it is different from feeling it.
In my entire life here,
I never went by the beach.
Not even once for decades? Why?
In case...
I might want to...
walk into the sea if went there.
You won't anymore.
I'll hold your hand.
It's so cool.
There are seagulls too.
I know.
Dad, I visited that store before.
Really? When?
I went there with Mom the other day.
Don't overcook the meat.
This is going to be delicious.
This looks great.
It looks fun.
Hello.
Hi, Joon Seo.
- He says he's hungry. - Really?
It's all ready. Go eat.
I'll take good care of him. Don't worry.
Okay.
Joon Seo, don't cause any trouble.
Okay, but don't come early for me.
Okay.
Let's go.
- Grandma. - Welcome.
- Hurry, guys. - Hello.
Thank you...
for bringing Joon Seo here.
He was all excited on his way here.
You want to stay for dinner?
Min Ho wants to have a drink with you anyway.
Later.
People are waiting for me at the site.
Okay, then.
Goodbye.
Take care.
Go on. The kids are waiting.
Okay.
Hyeon Woo kissed Hae Ji.
- What? - Really?
Joon Seo!
He kissed her!
Is that true?
Will you keep teasing me, Joon Seo?
- Come over here. - He's helpless...
when he's with his little brother.
Come back here to eat, guys.
My daughter has such warm hands.
I'm sorry.
I won't ask for your forgiveness though.
For me to be forgiven,
I need to forgive first.
You have someone to ask for forgiveness?
(Thank you so much for watching A Pledge to God.)
