(Episode 5)
I want you to stay here from now on.
I don't want you going anywhere.
I put in all the basic ingredients in the fridge.
There's also rice.
I want you to buy additional ingredients online.
- Don't carry anything heavy. - Okay.
You're forbidden from drinking coffee, coke, alcohol, and smoking.
Okay.
Please try your best to eat organic and slow foods...
since what you eat will directly to my baby.
Okay.
You don't have a boyfriend, right?
No, I don't.
But let me tell you beforehand out of concern.
You're forbidden from sleeping with a guy. Do you understand?
I understand.
I don't want anyone including your family to come to this house.
No one will come visit.
Please refrain from going outside.
And please tell me if you must go somewhere. I'll take you there.
You must tell me no matter what.
I always need to be aware of where you are.
Not even for a single second. Do you understand?
Okay.
And...
try to think of positive things only.
It doesn't matter how you've lived or what you've been through.
Please do your best for my baby that's inside you right now.
Okay.
I'm done. Come on out.
Here.
Here's your water.
You don't look so well.
I saw some seaweed soup. Did you make it?
I bought some on my way home.
I see.
Did you suddenly crave seaweed soup?
You'll get to eat plenty once you give birth.
Do you feel okay?
Yes.
I sold the house.
I'm sorry.
I'll get back on my feet again and get you a bigger house.
You eat kimchi now?
I thought you couldn't eat it because of the smell.
I don't have morning sickness anymore.
What?
I'm sorry.
Are you serious?
Why do you think I made that kind of choice?
Your mom wouldn't even think about helping us out.
What do you expect me to do in this kind of situation?
Don't open your eyes.
- Don't open them yet. - Okay.
Here. You can open your eyes now.
You decorated it already?
I just couldn't wait.
Look at these. Aren't they so cute?
Gosh, they're adorable.
But...
you got everything in blue.
Don't you think that was a bit hasty?
What kind of women is she?
What does she do?
Now that she's pregnant, here's half of the deposit.
Thank you, Ms. Choi.
But before I give you this, I want to know what her job is...
and where she lives.
I want to know your address as well.
I'm just preparing for the worst.
Ms. Yoon won't want me to tell you anything private.
Don't you want the money?
She teaches kids in an art academy.
I'm not sure.
She's very private about her personal information.
What kind of privacy does a surrogate mother need?
Didn't you look into all that before asking her to carry your baby?
She's apparently a nice woman. Why don't you just have some trust?
My gosh, how can I trust people like that?
She must be broke in order to earn money by being a surrogate mother.
I'd like to go take a look and see what kind of person she is.
No, you can't do that Mother. She doesn't want that.
She's carrying my precious grandchild.
What if she suddenly decides to run away?
Gosh, she won't do that.
She still has half the money left to receive.
Even if she doesn't.
You should be beside her making sure she does everything your way...
including the way she eats,
what she sees, hears, and thinks.
You don't have time for all this.
- Okay, I'll take good care of her. - My gosh.
My goodness.
What's the use of telling you all this?
How pathetic.
Gosh, my mom's so mean.
Hello.
Why are you eating breakfast so late?
I wasn't that hungry.
You can't do that.
You should eat in time for the baby.
What's this?
I bought you a lot of side dishes.
I didn't have much appetite.
Ms. Yoon.
You must be mistaken.
It's not your baby. It's mine.
And do you think I'd feed this to my baby?
- I'm sorry. - Where did you get this anyway?
I'll have to make you a meal plan.
Eat this first.
I'll make you a salad.
I don't want to eat meat.
Do you not understand?
It's my baby.
Grill the meat.
Don't listen to cheap songs like that.
"Cheap songs"?
Yes, that's right.
Listen to classical songs.
Don't you know anything about prenatal education?
Upbeat songs like that are good for the baby as well.
Babies nowadays are really into those kind of songs.
My baby is different from those kinds of babies.
Dignity is taught from the womb.
I think that's a bit too far off.
It's biased to think that classical music is...
Ms. Yoon.
Did you forget that you're obligated...
to follow my orders until you give birth?
Why are you talking back?
It's still a small dot.
I wonder when it'll grow up.
She needs to eat well for the baby to grow well.
I wonder why she doesn't eat a lot.
Maybe she's being inconsiderate because it's not her baby.
What's wrong?
The surrogate mother isn't picking up.
I wonder if she went somewhere.
Do you think she ran away?
No way.
Yes, Ms. Choi.
What took you so long to pick up?
Do you know how many times I called?
Where were you?
I was taking a shower.
From now on, I want you to report...
what you're doing to me every two hours.
Text me when you get up and go to sleep,
and text me every two hours in between.
Is that really necessary?
I'll be home all the time anyway.
I can't be with you for 24 hours.
So yes, it is necessary.
If not, I'll have to hire someone to keep an eye on you.
But won't that be more uncomfortable?
Okay.
Bye.
The yellow dust is really bad today.
Don't go anywhere. It'll be bad for the baby.
This is nice.
What brings you here?
What do you think? I came to see how you're doing.
Gosh.
You're really living the life.
It's delicious.
Did you repay the debt?
Yes.
I told them that I'll pay them an interest...
of 2,500 dollars every month until I give them the other half.
So wire your monthly living expenses to me as soon as you get them.
Okay.
What about Dad?
He'll be released soon. They dropped all charges.
That's a relief.
This place is nice. You have a big room.
Hey, why don't you just do this for a living?
You get pregnant so easily.
What?
I'm joking.
You should go.
She forbid me from inviting anyone.
I should at least drop by and see where you're living...
since I'm in charge of managing you.
Here, I got you some stuff to eat.
Come on.
Do your best, okay?
(Instant Noodles)
("Leaving Everything Behind")
Mr. Shin.
Mr. Shin, are you seriously leaving us?
Of course. Did you think I'd live with you?
Your new CEO is my friend.
He agreed not to fire anyone,
so tell me if he goes back on his word.
I'll come scold him.
What are you going to do now?
I'm going to focus on clearing out my debt.
Then...
I'll try hard to persevere.
What's wrong with him?
You were always so nice to me.
Hey.
You always used to get on my nerves. Stop crying.
When did I get on your nerves?
You were always so lazy, and you never did things as you were told.
That's why you need to be nice to someone while they're around.
What are you doing?
You're not even my boss anymore.
Hey.
You eat well.
Someone might think you won the lottery.
I need to eat in order to stay energetic.
There's nothing much to life.
All it takes is just one big blow.
You've been saying that ever since we were in high school.
And that one blow ended up taking everything from you.
Are you really my friend?
I need consolation.
Gosh, go ahead. I'll buy.
Why didn't you bring Min Kyung with you?
Is she seeing another gynecologist instead of me?
You're my sister-in-law's doctor, right?
Yes.
Don't tell Kyung Shin that Min Kyung's pregnant.
Why not?
Your mom and dad would be thrilled.
Shouldn't you tell them as soon as possible?
Well...
She's no longer pregnant.
What?
She did keep telling me that she wasn't going to give birth.
Really?
Why did she do that?
I guess it wasn't the right time for her.
Plus, I'm broke.
Hey, do you think that makes any sense?
Do you know how badly your parents want a grandchild?
Your brother and sister-in-law went through so much to have a baby.
Why do you think Kyung Shin even...
You're crazy.
You both are out of your minds.
It's because I'm dumb.
I'm the one who made her do that.
So don't blame Min Kyung.
(Leah Women's Hospital)
Everything's nice. Your baby's growing up so well.
Do you want to listen to your baby's heartbeat?
That's marvelous.
This is blissful.
Here.
Don't forget to take the oriental medicine.
Take them 30 minutes after every meal.
Okay.
The lead actors have a meeting with the director today.
I wasn't informed of that.
I switched agencies and signed a contract with CEO Kim Jae Woo.
What?
It was a nice offer. He even got a house for me.
Of course, it's just for me.
We'll have to live separately for a while.
Hey, Min Kyung.
What else can we do?
Can you do that much for me?
I'm too embarrassed to live in that tiny studio.
You're betraying me. Do you know that?
I need to do well in order for you to do well.
- We're a married couple. - Are we?
When have you ever treated me like your husband?
Is this what you call a married couple?
You even got an abortion without telling me.
We can always have another baby.
This just isn't the right time to have a baby.
Hey, get lost.
Don't ever show up in front of me again.
Do you also feel suffocated?
Should we go for a short walk?
Hello, Ms. Choi.
Are you outside? I can hear other people talking.
Yes, I came to the park for a walk.
Then you could've given me a text.
Ms. Choi.
I totally understand what you're worried about.
But I won't go anywhere.
I have nowhere to go. And even if I did, I wouldn't.
I'm not in a situation to meet people right now.
But still, I'm worried that you might get hurt while you're outside.
The world is very dangerous.
I'm going to give birth to your baby safely.
I'll...
protect your baby with all my life.
I promise that I'll do a good job.
So please don't suffocate me too much.
(Instant Noodles)
Ms. Yoon.
Hey.
I'm sorry. I watched a movie until really late last night.
What's this?
You threw away the medicine?
Is this what you call doing a good job?
I'm sorry.
Drink it.
Drink it while I'm here.
I'm hoping you'll do better next time.
She has morning sickness? What kind of morning sickness?
She can't seem to eat very well.
I'd rather have her eat a lot.
Although I know it's hard to constantly crave food.
How do you know so well? You've never been pregnant.
I've heard a lot from my friends.
What should I do?
She needs to eat well in order for our baby to eat well.
Buy her some peaches.
Peaches? Why?
Back when I was pregnant with Hyun Joon, I ate a lot of peaches.
The really juicy ones.
I couldn't eat anything because of my morning sickness,
but I could still eat peaches.
Really?
You're lucky that you get to have a baby without going through all that.
I guess money really solves everything these days.
But it's not the time of year for juicy peaches.
- Where can I get them? - Look into it yourself.
Can't you do that much? You're getting that baby with no effort.
Ji Young.
Did you eat anything?
No, I just keep feeling sleepy.
Come outside.
I searched the entire country to look for these.
They might not taste as good as the peaches we get in summer.
But they still taste nice.
My mother-in-law ate these when she was pregnant with my husband.
Can you eat it?
Here.
I'm sorry. But can I stop eating?
I'm sorry.
Okay, I guess there's nothing I can do.
I...
want to take a walk.
I'll be able to do the same thing after a few months.
What do you want to do after you give birth?
I don't know.
Isn't there something you want to do?
I'm not quite sure.
I used to want to become a teacher.
A teacher?
Then why don't you go ahead and become one?
What would I be able to tell the kids?
I no longer have the right to tell them...
how to live...
or how to stay honest and live a righteous life.
Honey.
I'm with her right now. We're taking a walk in the park.
What about you?
Why? You want to eat dinner?
That sounds great.
Where's that new restaurant you discovered?
Oh, okay. I'd love to give it a try.
Please choose a nice bottle of wine.
Okay.
Let's go.
I envy you.
What?
It seems like you have everything.
I want water.
Okay.
Let's see.
The grilled fish.
Okay.
Where are the kids?
They're eating outside.
I don't get why they'd want to eat by themselves.
Cockles.
Okay.
She was blessed to marry a guy like Hyun Joon.
She can't even have kids, so she has to hire a surrogate.
But he still treats her like a princess.
On the other hand, some women don't even...
get acknowledged for giving birth to two sons.
What?
I wasn't talking about you.
Go bring the phone.
Okay.
I'm talking about you, you old man.
You don't know how to care about your wife.
You treat me like a slave.
You mistreat me just because you're the one earning money.
Why haven't you picked up the phone yet?
Okay.
It's an advertisement call.
When has he ever picked up the phone himself?
He's not the only one aging.
He won't even be able to move soon anyway.
I'm going to live longer than you...
so that I can get compensated for how much you...
and your mother mistreated me.
Hey, the grilled fish tastes nice. Give me the grilled fish.
- We're home. - We're home.
You guys seem happy.
Did you enjoy your meal?
Where's Dad?
- Dad, we're here. - Did you eat?
I'll see you when I get back.
Mother, I'll see you later.
You have such a grand life.
Pardon?
You leave the morning sickness to your surrogate mother.
And you're going on dinner dates with Hyun Joon.
Mother, I'm really trying my best here.
How is that you're always so loved?
I raised him so preciously,
but you're getting all the love in return.
That's nonsense.
Let me say this since I know how much he cares for you.
Before he got married to you,
there were so many pretty girls from very prestigious households...
who had also graduated from very famous colleges.
But he turned all of them down.
So I was curious to know what kind of a woman he'd bring along.
But I guess everyone has their own luck.
You get loved by him even when you have nothing good to offer.
Why are you just standing there? Weren't you on your way out?
Are you upset because we ate dinner separately last night?
I'm not saying this because I feel jealous that you guys ate outside.
I'm just saying this because you seem so immature.
You're not in the situation to go around having dinner dates.
You must think everything's okay because you have a surrogate mother.
But you're on probation until you actually bring me...
a grandchild that I can hold.
My goodness.
(I am also Mother)
That's why you should've asked your dad for help.
You're the one who ruined everything just to keep your pride.
I'll be playing golf next Saturday.
- It's at Gangwon Province. - It was there, wasn't it?
That's where you spent the night with Professor Kim.
I already told you. It's not what you think.
I'll get divorced if you want. Live your life however you want.
Come back. Let's talk face to face.
Gosh, I'm dying.
What's wrong, Mom?
