1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, 10.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
9, 10.
- Get the defibrillator ready. - Yes, Doctor.
- Charge to 200 joules. - It's ready.
1, 2, 3. Clear!
One more time. 1, 2, 3. Clear!
Jae Hyuk, Jae Hyuk!
- Please wait outside. - Jae Hyuk.
- Please leave. - Just a moment. Jae Hyuk!
- Jae Hyuk! - Wait outside.
Jae Hyuk...
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8...
1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8... 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6...
No. Please, no.
You can't do this to me.
4, 5, 6, 7, 8...
No...
No, Jae Hyuk...
What is going on?
Your dad is bedridden,
and Jae Hyuk is still unconscious.
Gosh, what a mess.
Things are very chaotic at work as well.
But this is a good opportunity for you.
You need to show the board members that you're staying strong.
I've already had a meeting with Mr. Park and Mr. Gong...
and made sure they're aware of my position in Noyu.
Good.
Honey, go get some sleep.
No, I'm okay.
Who caused the hit-and-run accident?
(Choi So Won)
Hey, what's up?
What? Cardiac arrest?
Cardiac arrest?
Jae Hyuk's heart isn't beating. He's in critical condition now.
What?
My gosh.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6...
Doctor, the vital signs are back!
Thankfully, he's passed the critical stage now.
Gosh, thank you.
Thank you so much, Doctor.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Jae Hyuk.
Hey, So Won.
What? He woke up?
Really?
Thank goodness.
I'm so relieved.
Okay.
- So Won. - So Won.
How's Mr. Han? What happened?
He had a cardiac arrest, but he's okay now.
What? Cardiac arrest?
That's very serious.
What about now? Is he okay now?
Yes.
Jae Hyuk.
What are you doing here?
Jae Hyuk. It's me, your aunt.
Open your eyes, please.
Jae Hyuk.
Jae Hyuk, wake up. Please.
- Jae Hyuk. - Jae Hyuk!
Mr. Han.
Gosh, you woke up! Jae Hyuk.
Can you see me? It's me, your aunt. Do you see me?
Thank goodness. I'm so relieved.
We should step out.
Do you recognize me?
So Won.
Are you all right?
Did you just ask me if I'm all right?
That's the first thing you said upon waking up?
You nearly died.
You almost died!
Why did you do that?
What on earth were you thinking?
What would I have done if something bad had happened to you?
No way. Jae Hyuk won't die.
Hey, Yu Jin. Are you at the hospital now?
The kids left a few minutes ago to go to the hospital.
How's Jae Hyuk?
He woke up?
What's going on?
Jae Hyuk regained his consciousness?
Yes, he woke up.
I need to go see him. Bring my jacket.
Gosh, no. You shouldn't go anywhere now, honey.
Let me go. I said, I must go see Jae Hyuk.
Okay, fine. Then I'll go with you.
- I'll go get your jacket. Hold on. - Okay.
Jae Hyuk.
Are you all right?
Yes.
Jae Hyuk, we were so scared.
We were very worried about you.
- Gosh. - Jae Hyuk...
Jae Hyuk.
Gosh, look at you.
- Dad. - Why did you do such a thing?
You fool.
Do you not care about me at all?
- I'm sorry, Dad. - Did you think you were invincible?
I can't believe you got hurt while trying to save Choi So Won.
Jae Hyuk, are you okay?
Are you in pain at all?
No, I'm okay.
But...
my legs feel numb.
What? What did you say?
Well, hold on.
I need to talk to Dr. Lee.
Oh, he's here.
Dr. Lee.
Jae Hyuk's legs...
He's saying they're numb.
What's going on?
That's what I was concerned about.
The damaged area in his lower back is pretty big.
It seems like he's paralyzed from the waist down.
What?
We did our best though.
We're sorry.
You mean,
he won't be able to walk for the rest of his life?
He can receive physiotherapy,
and it all depends on how determined he is,
but that's the situation at the moment.
We'll have to see how he recovers.
- Gosh... - Oh, no.
- Father. - My gosh, honey.
Gosh, honey.
You.
What on earth are you doing here?
How dare you?
Min Hyuk.
Get her out of my sight at once!
- You must leave. - Wait.
Sir, I'm truly sorry.
But I can't leave like this.
Please allow me to stay by Jae Hyuk's side. Please?
Unbelievable. You're utterly shameless.
- Get lost! - I said, you must leave!
Just a moment. Please, sir.
Leave at once!
- Drag her out. Now! - Gosh, honey.
Did you not hear that?
Tae Seok, you're here.
Yu Jin...
What should we do about Jae Hyuk?
Tae Seok, what's the matter?
The doctor said...
that he may not be able to walk again for the rest of his life.
What? No way.
- Gosh... - Goodness, honey.
Hwa Ran, you should take Tae Seok home.
I'll stay here.
Min Hyuk, you should go home too.
- Yeon Su is pregnant. - I'm okay.
Just go home.
What are you waiting for? Take your dad home!
- Dad. - Honey.
- Jae Hyuk... - My gosh.
- Jae Hyuk! - We're off. Honey, please. Honey.
So Won.
Ms. Han.
What do I do, Ms. Han?
What are we going to do about his legs?
It's my fault. Gosh, it's all my fault.
Pull yourself together. We don't know for certain yet.
Let's not expect the worst.
An acquaintance of mine had a spinal injury from an accident,
but he's fully recovered now.
- Really? - Yes.
Let's be hopeful.
Stay by his side and give him the strength he needs.
You know that you're the one he needs the most now, right?
Yes.
Yes, Ms. Han.
Aunt Yu Jin.
Be honest with me.
There's...
something wrong with my legs, right?
Jae Hyuk.
I can find out right away if I ask my doctor.
Just tell me the truth, Aunt Yu Jin.
Well...
Your legs are paralyzed due to spinal nerve damage.
Does that mean I can't walk again for the rest of my life?
That's not the case, of course.
It's just temporary,
so don't worry.
I'll be right back.
Jae Hyuk.
Please leave.
It's not your fault.
It's just something that I have to deal with,
so don't beat yourself up.
Come to think of it, you were right.
I was too greedy.
Too unrealistically greedy.
So...
let's just end things.
Why are you saying this now?
When I was trying so hard to push you away,
you said you'd wait for me.
Why? Why now?
I just realized it now.
So leave.
And don't come back.
He's paralyzed from the waist down?
This is insane.
No, that wasn't my fault.
He shouldn't have jumped in like that.
It is not my fault.
Ms. Han left.
I told her to go home because I'm staying.
You should leave too. I told you to leave.
I want to keep my promise.
I promised myself...
that I'd stay by your side...
if you regained your consciousness.
I will keep the promise I made to myself.
So please.
Don't tell me to leave.
Are you doing this out of pity?
Jae Hyuk.
You don't need to pity me,
nor should you feel responsible for what happened.
I'm okay. I really mean it.
That's not why I'm doing this.
It's just that I've also realized something.
The fact that...
I can't even live a day without you.
You see,
I'll never let your hand go again.
Eun Hye, I'm really sorry.
I know that you'll probably never forgive me,
but I can't hold myself back anymore.
I'm just going to stay by his side.
I don't care what anyone says.
I'll protect him from now on.
The chairman told me to investigate the accident.
What do we do, then?
I guess he'll give up if we stall and drag things out.
I'll take care of it, so don't worry.
And Vice President Han hasn't mentioned anything yet,
so I'm sure he didn't see your car that day.
That's probably the case, right?
You're pregnant,
so you should try not to stress out for your baby's sake.
Okay. I should get back.
(Detective Seo Jung Bae)
You must be devastated.
I'm all right.
Ms. Han told me about Mr. Han's legs.
What do we do?
Don't worry. I'll make sure he fully recovers.
So Won.
You said you're trying to track someone down. Who?
Seo Jung Bae, the detective who investigated Eun Hye's case.
I've been trying to find him for a while.
He showed up at his father's funeral...
but left right after paying for the funeral.
But he's the chief mourner. He left right after paying for the funeral?
Yes, there's definitely something.
I'm sure someone bribed him.
Detective Seo Jung Bae...
I met him once a long time ago,
but I don't remember his face.
It's this guy.
Right.
I remember him.
Can we find out...
the truth behind Eun Hye's accident if we track him down?
We should be able to obtain some important clues.
Seo Jung Bae.
Seo Jung Bae called again, asking for more money.
Things are already so chaotic because of Jae Hyuk.
Until when will he keep extorting money from us?
Threatening him doesn't even work anymore.
What should we do?
How much longer will you yield to his unreasonable requests?
Shall I meet him?
You should stay out of this.
Mr. Park and I will sort it out.
Make him promise he won't do this again...
and give him some money.
Yes, ma'am.
Mr. Park.
Yes, sir.
I should meet Seo Jung Bae myself.
Please arrange a meeting for me.
That's not necessary, sir.
Set up a meeting for me.
Immediately.
The rehabilitation will be a difficult process.
Some say that it's even more painful than surgery.
I feel so bad for Jae Hyuk.
I'll help him, so don't worry too much.
Thanks, So Won.
Don't mention it. I should help him, of course.
It's my fault that he ended up like that.
I'll make sure that he can fully recover.
So don't worry too much.
I see that you've gotten strong again.
I must stay strong to give him the strength he needs.
You're right.
I made some ox bone soup. Take it to Jae Hyuk.
- Okay. - Thank you, Ms. Song.
I should at least do these things for him.
I'm upset that it's the only thing I can do for him.
- Who's here? - Go find out.
- This came for you, Ms. Han. - Who sent it?
My gosh, how beautiful.
Leon?
It's Leon. Excuse me for a moment.
Leon?
"Leon"?
That's a real name? It sounds like a cat's name.
Isn't he the French guy Ms. Han was casually seeing?
He got divorced a month after his wedding.
- Why? - I heard it was the woman's fault.
She must've duped him or something.
How do you know?
Cake probably told him all about it.
But if he's divorced, why is he sending Cake flowers?
Is he trying to make a move on her now that he's single again?
Right?
He wants me to live with him on his island.
"His island"?
Yes, he owns an island.
He must be very wealthy.
He said he even built a house that looks like a castle on the island.
Leon is such a ridiculous name.
Then what? Are you Mathilda?
Yes.
A long time ago, he asked me to be his Mathilda.
But I said no, of course.
Why did you say no?
A woman must choose a man who truly loves...
and cherishes her.
Make Leon yours, okay?
Should I?
Yes, totally.
- Mom. - Yes?
Is Mr. Get Out very ill?
- What? - I overheard your conversation.
Mom.
Can you please take me to him?
I miss him.
Another time, Ha Eun.
I'll take you to him when he gets better, okay?
Okay.
Then can you make sure he gets this?
What is it?
I wrote him a letter.
(To Mr. Get Out)
I should not become weak.
I must stay strong.
Hello.
I'll look after him, so you can leave now.
Pardon?
Okay, sure.
- Thank you for your help. - I'll be off, then.
My gosh, it's such a beautiful day.
Get better soon so that we can go for a walk together, okay?
Why are you back?
My mom made some ox bone soup...
for you.
It's so delicious.
Do you want to have some now?
Why are you being like this?
I don't care what you say. I'll do what I want to do,
so don't waste your energy.
Eat well and do your best with the rehabilitation therapy...
as well as with your treatment.
I'll keep nagging you, so you'd better brace yourself.
Oh, right.
Ha Eun wrote you a letter.
Mr. Get Out, are you in a lot of pain?
I'm praying every day so that you can recover soon.
Mr. Get Out, get better soon.
I miss you very much.
From Ha Eun.
You should listen to me for Ha Eun's sake.
First, have some ox bone soup.
You're utterly shameless.
Whose fault is it that Jae Hyuk ended up like that?
I don't have the energy or time to argue with you right now.
If you're doing this out of guilt, stop now.
You two already broke up. Why are you so clingy?
We didn't break up, and we never will.
What?
You said yourself that you two broke up.
Back then,
I thought we should end things.
But...
we no longer need to.
Are you kidding me?
He may not be able to walk again.
You still want to stay with him?
Watch what you say.
That won't happen.
And even if it happens,
I don't care.
Choi So Won... What on earth is she thinking?
This is driving me crazy.
Jae Hyuk, the car that almost hit us.
Did you see anything?
I didn't. I was too flustered.
No, I didn't see anything either.
Have you reported it to the police yet?
Ho Jin is investigating the case.
Has he found out anything?
No, he said all the security footage was deleted.
I bet the driver got to it before Ho Jin did.
Don't worry about anything though.
Just focus on your recovery, okay?
All right.
That's what I like to hear. You're adorable.
Did you just smile?
I can finally breathe now.
Your smile just gave me so much energy.
I'll try to be strong from now on.
I'll follow all your advice...
and keep up with the rehabilitation therapy.
Really?
I feel like I can do anything with you by my side.
I asked you for the test results but haven't received anything yet.
Where's your mind at?
I told you that we're getting the results back today.
No, I don't recall hearing that.
- Sir, yesterday... - Forget it.
Submit the report by the end of the day.
I have to give the chairman the updates tomorrow morning.
- Yes, sir. - You'd better not be late.
This project is very important for Noyu.
You may leave.
Detective Seo?
Where?
A Japanese restaurant in Asan?
Okay.
I'll meet you there at 3pm.
"Detective Seo"?
Yoon Jin.
You said you're going to the lab today.
Yes.
I hope the results are positive.
They will be.
Okay, I can't wait to find out. Submit the report to me as well.
Of course, Ms. Han.
(Textiles Research Laboratory)
I dropped off the black volcanic ash soil. I'm heading back now.
Great. Thank you, Yoon Jin.
The manager said...
they'll contact you as soon as the results are out.
- Okay. - See you.
I can't let So Won complete the warming effect.
(Test Report, Warming Effect)
What happened?
What's wrong?
The numbers seem off.
This can't be.
Submit the report by the end of the day.
I have to give the chairman the updates tomorrow morning.
Sir...
Where did he go?
I'll get in trouble if I don't report this to him right away.
The person you're trying to reach is unavailable at the moment.
Where?
A Japanese restaurant in Asan?
Okay.
I'll meet you there at 3pm.
How dare you come to our house and threaten us?
Mr. Park just doesn't get it.
I feel like we've given you enough money.
Until when will you keep this up?
I thought you'd understand,
but we're already not seeing eye to eye.
Look.
Hey!
Calm down.
You see,
when I was investigating a junkyard a few years back,
I found a vehicle owned by Noyu.
I'm thinking it may have been your car.
What about that car?
It might have been the vehicle that hit Choi Eun Hye.
It suddenly popped into my head.
Bring evidence, then.
A groundless accusation like this is considered defamation, you know.
I came here to warn you.
If you keep this up,
I'll have to teach you a lesson.
Detective Seo Jung Bae?
