(Home for Summer)
(Episode 121)
Geum Hui. Geum Hui, let's talk.
Mr. Wang, please let me in.
Mr. Wang!
- What happened? - You're here.
Is Geum Hui okay?
I don't know.
They took some blood earlier, so the results will be out soon.
Mom.
You woke up?
Are you all right, Geum Hui?
Yes.
I said a long time ago that you should be hospitalized.
I'm sorry.
By the way, is it still raining?
What? The rain?
No, it stopped raining. Why do you ask?
It stopped?
- Yes. - Yes.
I'm relieved.
Are the results out?
She should start chemotherapy right away, right?
I don't think we can start it right away.
Why not? Why can't we start it now?
Leukemia cells travel with the blood,
so the chemotherapy drugs should be injected into arteries.
In order to do that, we need to insert a Hickman catheter...
in her right chest.
What about it? You can go ahead and insert the catheter.
Ms. Wang's white blood cell count is high at the moment,
which means her blood viscosity has increased,
so we cannot insert the catheter in her current state.
Then what should we do?
We'll lower her white blood cell count through leukapheresis...
prior to starting chemotherapy.
I see.
Don't worry too much.
We'll start the chemotherapy as soon as the leukapheresis is completed.
These days, the number of cancer cells...
can drop to less than 5 percent even after the 1st treatment...
in some cases as the treatment is very effective,
so let's be hopeful and see how it goes.
- Yes, Doctor. We'll count on you. - All right.
Ms. Wang, how are you feeling?
I'm all right, Doctor.
You know that this won't be an easy fight, right?
Yes.
But this is a fight that you can totally win,
so stay strong and let's get through this together.
I will, Doctor.
- I'll speak to you later. - Yes, thank you.
Thank you.
Dad. I'm sorry to ask you this,
but can you pick up Yeo Reum from his daycare?
Okay, I will.
Tell him that I'm away on a trip.
All right.
Take it easy, honey.
- All right. - See you.
Until when are you going to hide this from Yeo Reum?
If possible, I want him to go to Sang Won without knowing this.
- You're getting home just now? - Yes.
Yeo Reum, why do you seem so down?
Mom went on a trip without me.
What is he talking about, Dad? Geum Hui went on a trip?
Let's go in. We'll talk inside, okay?
Let's go in, Yeo Reum.
Go on in.
So Geum Hui is hospitalized now?
Yes.
She can't leave the hospital once the chemotherapy begins.
Until when are we going to tell Yeo Reum that she's away on a trip?
I have no idea. I don't know what her plan is.
But that's what Geum Hui wants to do,
so we should respect her wishes.
So? Did the audition go well?
I did audition for the role, but don't get your hopes up, Dad.
There were so many talented actors.
They say you should make hay while the sun shines.
You took too much time off.
Oh, hi, Mom.
Yeo Reum, did you have fun at the daycare center?
Yes, I did. But why did you go on a trip...
without me?
I'm sorry, Yeo Reum. I'm really sorry.
Then, when will you come back?
I came far from home.
So I think it'll take me a long time to go back home. I'm sorry.
How long?
I'll tell you when I'm going home.
But you still have your dad,
grandpa, grandma, aunt, and uncle around you.
You'll be fine, right?
Why? Is it not okay with you?
I'll be fine, but I miss you.
We can see each other like this.
I'll call you every single day.
Are we good?
Yes, Mom.
You're such a good boy.
Then, I'll talk to you again tomorrow.
Okay.
Yes, Seok Ho.
Did the audition go well?
I don't think I'll get the part.
Is that so?
Yes.
Don't be so discouraged because of that.
You'll have another chance.
That's not the reason.
Then what is it?
Geum Hui collapsed and was taken to the hospital earlier today.
Geum Hui collapsed?
What do you mean Geum Hui collapsed?
Hey, what are you...
It's me. Did you say that Geum Hui collapsed?
Where? Where did she collapse?
She collapsed at home, so my dad took her to the hospital.
I see.
Where are you going?
Did your brother go out to see Geum Hui at the hospital?
I think he's going to the hospital.
What does he have to do with her? No one will be happy to see him.
He thinks it's his fault Geum Hui fell ill.
He's not wrong about that.
Geum Ju.
However, Geum Hui will be fine, right?
Of course, she will. I asked around about it too.
I heard it can be cured these days, so don't worry too much.
And Geum Hui is stronger than anyone else.
I'm sure she'll get through this.
Thank you, Seok Ho.
You must've been nervous because of the audition. Get some rest now.
Okay.
Oh, dear.
How unfortunate.
What has she done wrong to deserve such an illness?
That's not right, Mom.
What do you mean?
Are you saying that Geum Hui has done something wrong?
That's not what I mean. An Illness is just an illness.
Is that so?
Of course.
Anyway, Jun Ho is so loyal.
Most men would've run away if they found out about the illness.
But Jun Ho stepped in even more actively.
That's true, but Geum Hui doesn't want his help.
However, I think he took out a loan to pay off your debt.
But he's not looking for a new job. I don't know what he's thinking.
You sound like...
you're saying it to make me feel guilty.
Pardon?
All right. I'll do everything I can...
to pay off his loan.
Well... That's not what I was saying,
but it'd be great if you pay it off.
I heard you.
But what can I do to repay that much money?
(Patient: Wang Geum Hui, Choi Ok Hui)
What are you doing here?
I heard that Geum Hui collapsed.
Has she woken up?
It's none of your business. Leave now.
Mother, I'll take care of Geum Hui.
You know that I'm a doctor.
I'm confident I can take better care of her than anyone else.
Even though you're a doctor,
would Geum Hui let you attend to her?
Mother, please.
You'll only stress her out. So leave.
That's the only thing you can do for Geum Hui.
Are you really saying you're planning to go back to Geum Hui?
That's right.
I'll go back to Geum Hui.
Then...
will Geum Hui take you back?
She will.
That sly wench.
What did she say?
She told me to make sure Jun Ho behaves himself properly?
(Ju Sang Mi)
Hello?
Hello? Is this Wang Geum Hui's phone?
This is Geum Hui's mother.
Oh, I see.
May I speak to Geum Hui?
What could there be for you to talk about with her?
Can't you just put her on the phone?
No. Don't bother my poor bedridden daughter,
and make sure your husband behaves himself properly.
Hello? Hello?
"Bedridden"?
(Jun Ho)
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message after the beep.
What is he doing with his phone turned off?
Hello, Mother. It's me.
By any chance,
is Geum Hui sick?
Did you hear the news as well?
What illness does she have?
I feel so bad for her.
She has leukemia. My goodness.
What did you say?
Jun Ho thinks she fell ill because of him.
That's why he's acting like that. He wants to take care of her.
Hello? Are you listening to me?
I...
should go now.
I don't even have the energy to talk to you due to a bad cold.
Just make sure your husband won't come to see me anymore.
I'm imploring you.
Jun Ho is acting like that for a reason.
You must be giving him a reason.
Sang Mi.
If you don't want me to get the wrong idea,
leave Korea with Sang Won right now.
Leave right now.
I wish I could do that too.
Is Geum Hui getting chemotherapy?
I called Dr. Park because I was also wondering how she was doing.
He said she collapsed and was taken to the hospital earlier today.
What?
You mean she wasn't getting treated all this time?
She probably needed some time to end her relationship with Sang Won.
She can't hide her illness once she starts chemotherapy.
Is that so?
I'm grateful for that.
I know.
Then I guess it's a matter of time...
before Sang Won and Yeo Reum move in with us.
Well... I guess so.
Then I should start decorating Yeo Reum's room more quickly.
Gosh, don't be so excited about it.
Even I feel embarrassed.
My goodness. Why would you feel embarrassed?
I'll go home to bring some stuff we need here.
You'll be here alone for a short while.
Just sleep at home and come back tomorrow.
Don't say that.
I'll hurry back, so stay here, okay?
Okay.
I heard you fainted again.
Are you all right?
Yes, as long as I don't have to see you again.
Don't be like this. Just accept me, Geum Hui.
You said you broke up with him.
Right?
Why do you think I broke up with Sang Won?
Because I don't love him?
I know that's not the case.
But it is true that you two broke up.
Geum Hui, so...
Do you know what I thought about as soon as I regained consciousness?
What?
I was worried about Sang Won.
He was waiting for me in the rain to persuade me...
not to break up with him.
I fainted as I was stepping out of the house to stop him.
As soon as I woke up,
I caught myself wondering whether it had stopped raining.
I thought, "I really hope he's not standing in the rain anymore."
That is how much I love Sang Won.
Whether we break up or not,
I have no feelings left for you whatsoever.
Do you understand?
I don't care.
You're ill because of me, so I'll make sure you recover.
- Don't try to change my mind. - Jun Ho.
Get some sleep. I'll come back tomorrow.
Have some.
Is it because of me?
Geum Hui.
Did she fall ill because of me?
Because of us, I'd say.
I really...
never intended any of this to happen.
I admit...
that I hated her, and I was always jealous of her.
But I never wanted something like this to happen.
I know.
So how is she doing?
Is she in critical condition?
Things aren't looking too good,
but she will recover once she starts chemotherapy.
I'll make sure she fully recovers.
So please let me go now, Sang Mi.
Sang Mi.
But do you think...
Geum Hui will accept you back...
if I let you go?
Geum Hui probably...
broke up with Sang Won so that he won't find out about her illness.
It shows how much she loves him.
Knowing that,
do you think she'll accept you back?
We're both...
such idiots.
We're both trying hard...
not to see what the person we love...
truly wants.
I'll be off, then.
I can't take this any longer.
No matter how much I think about it,
I don't think you should cut ties with your parents,
nor can I abandon my parents.
I'm getting back together with Jun Ho.
So you should give up on me now.
Honestly, you and I...
wouldn't have gotten this close if it weren't for Yeo Reum.
(Ju Sang Won)
The person you're trying to reach is unavailable. Leave a message...
Dad. It's me, Yeo Reum.
Hi, Yeo Reum. You're still awake?
Yes.
Why do you seem so down?
- Are you sleepy? - No.
Then what's wrong?
Mom's not here.
She's not home?
Where did she go?
She's away on a trip.
- A trip? - Yes.
She went on a trip alone.
She didn't take me.
Really?
- Are you mad at her? - A little.
I understand. She's mean, isn't she?
She went on a trip without us.
She hurt Daddy's feelings too. What should we do?
You're sad too?
Yes.
But Dad, you don't...
hate Mom, right?
Why do you ask? You don't want me to hate Mom?
No. I won't be mad at Mom,
so please don't hate her, okay?
You're maturer than I am.
All right. I won't hate her,
so don't worry and sleep tight.
- Okay, Yeo Reum? - Okay.
Good night, Dad.
All right.
Jun Ho.
Don't tell me you're here to see me at this hour.
What's up? Is there something else you need to check?
- Yes. - Okay, go ahead.
Whatever your question is, I'll give you my answer.
Are you really confident...
that you can make Geum Hui happy?
- What? - Are you sure you can...
make her happy and not break her heart ever again?
How am I supposed to interpret that?
Can I go ahead and assume that you mean you'll give up on Geum Hui?
If that is what she wants, yes.
Is that your way of loving her?
You're letting her go because you love her?
Love is about giving what the other person wants.
You made a wise decision.
I was worried that you might keep clinging and not let her go.
Jun Ho.
Please cherish her because she very well deserves it.
If you're done, leave now.
He just can't seem to stop acting like he's cool.
Hey.
- Geum Hui, I'm here. - Hi.
- Are you all right? - I'm fine.
Did the audition go well?
I think I failed it.
But don't worry. I'm not going to give up like this.
So you should never give up either. All right?
All right. I won't give up.
It's Sang Won.
Don't answer it.
Answer it, Geum Hui.
I understand you want to leave him but try not to break his heart.
Don't you think you should do so?
Right. Geum Ju is right about that.
He must be worried to death if you don't even pick up.
We will be outside, so answer his call.
- Let's wait outside, Geum Ju. - Okay.
Let's go.
Hello?
Geum Hui, I heard you went on a trip.
If you left to avoid me because I stressed you out,
you can come back now.
If you want me to,
I will...
let you go.
I still don't understand...
why we should break up.
But if it's what you want,
I will...
let go of your hand.
I sincerely hope you'll become happy, Geum Hui.
And don't forget what I said.
Your happiness is my happiness.
(Home for Summer)
- Will you sign the contract? - When can you move out?
- Has your store been sold? - I think it will be soon.
Mom, you knew about Geum Hui's illness, didn't you?
I think I have to let Jun Ho go.
Do you like Sang Won that much? Do you love him that much?
I want my mom to feel happy every single day.
I, too, want your mom to be very, very happy.
I'll go to the US with Yeo Reum.
