(Episode 26)
Mr. Baek, hello.
What's going on?
It's only been a few days since you proposed to her,
but you're now suddenly going to study in the US...
and Nurse Kim turned in her resignation.
Resignation?
Nurse Kim turned in her resignation?
Goodness, you didn't know?
Nurse Kim just came by and turned in her resignation.
She's really weird right now.
She only smiles when I talk to her...
and works like crazy.
She won't even eat or drink.
I need to get the medicine to patients. Please move aside.
So Young, we need to talk.
Head Nurse Baek, we're at work.
It's rather unpleasant to hear you address me by my name.
Please call me Nurse Kim So Young.
So Young, don't do this.
We need to talk.
You're the one who said you had nothing to say last night.
I also have nothing to discuss with you anymore.
I'll get the medicine.
Nurse Ahn?
I don't think you get the system yet.
You need to run the resignation by the head nurse first.
If you really want to quit,
go talk to him first.
He's still the head nurse of our ward.
I feel empty.
And it's all because of my selfishness.
It's how I feel selfish about not wanting to lose you.
I have lost a lot of things in my life.
My parents and siblings. There is no one out there for me.
I know...
how painful that is.
That is why...
I do not want to lose anything anymore.
But...
I can't be selfish about you.
I know.
I know what you mean.
I can get you transferred to another ward if you wish.
So please don't quit.
Why are you suddenly doing this?
I'm breaking up with you just as you wanted.
I told you that I'll leave.
So you can just stay there.
Why do you get to make the decision?
We broke up.
You're leaving to the US without my permission.
So I can quit work...
without your permission too.
You're quitting because of me.
No, I'm quitting because of me.
If I don't stop here,
I can't protect anyone.
Both my mom and you.
What do you mean?
Who's protecting whom?
Thank you for everything.
And take this.
You know that today is the D-day, right?
The D-day?
We need to do our homework.
We have to play the real game.
Oh, our homework.
So I looked for a hotel.
Do you know how much a five-star suit room costs a night?
It costs 10,000 dollars.
What? 10,000 dollars?
That's a room for people like Mansour.
I looked for something about three levels lower,
and I found a suite room that costs 1,000 dollars a night.
So what? Did you make a reservation?
Come on, I'm not insane.
I wouldn't do that without asking you.
You are the hero of the day.
Do you feel more relaxed at a hotel or at home?
Of course, it's home...
Right?
That is why today is our D-day.
Why?
Our twins. Il Lan and Yi Ran are...
both going on a camp for two days.
That means you and I will be alone at home tonight.
This is such a golden opportunity.
Mom.
Il Lan doesn't want to go to the camp.
You surprised me.
Her stomach hurts.
She won't go just because her stomach hurts?
She has to go even if it felt like her stomach is getting ripped out.
- That brat. - Honey.
- Il Lan! - Honey.
Il Lan! Tak Il Lan!
Il Lan.
Wake up.
Mom, my stomach hurts so much that I can die.
If you must die, go die at the camp.
No way. I can't go because my stomach hurts.
Hey, you have to be at the camp...
despite your pain so that...
We just do a talent show and hang out. That's all.
That's why you should...
go sing a song and win a notebook.
Hey, who else could sing other than an aspiring singer like you?
School talent shows are too boring.
What?
"School talent shows are too boring"?
Goodness, you are such a showoff.
Fine, then.
If you win an award... No.
If you bring back a grand award,
I won't stop you from becoming a singer.
Really? Do you promise?
Yes, so get changed, pack, and come downstairs.
Good morning. Thanks for the breakfast.
What's with her?
Mom, what did you tell her that she changed completely?
I offered her a condition that cannot be met,
but she took it.
What is it?
If I win the grand prize at this camp's talent show,
she said she'll give me her support on me becoming a singer.
- The grand prize? - The grand prize?
Are you all laughing at me?
Fine, wait and see.
- Hey, Il Lan. - Wait for me!
Bye.
Honey.
We'll be alone in this house tonight.
What will you do if Il Lan really brings back...
the grand prize?
Then I'll take a chance...
and let her try as much as she can.
Okay.
I'll be back.
- Honey. - Yes?
Let me know in advance if I should prepare...
anything special.
You're giving me pressure by saying these things.
Just act normal.
Really? Okay, honey. Have a great day.
Okay.
Oh, I have to stop by Director Kang's wedding later.
Is that today?
Yes, I'll be back.
It's their D-day too.
Goodbye.
Nurse Kim.
Did you talk it out with Head Nurse Baek?
Everything is over between us.
Over?
- Did you two break up? - Yes.
How can you split up in this day and age...
because of your parents?
You're right.
Even so, there's no need to go study in the US...
or to resign just because you two broke up.
Head Nurse Baek won't go to the US.
He said that your resignation was not processed.
I couldn't tell the director of nursing because she got mad,
but I'll turn it in after I take a break.
Throw me a farewell party then.
A farewell party? Do you mean this?
Yes.
Bye.
What's going on?
They were perfectly fine before, but they fell in love,
then they split up like this.
If they were going to be like this, they shouldn't have dated.
My head hurts.
I came by because I was worried about So Young.
Did you see her?
No, it looked like she was doing okay,
so I just left.
I suddenly lost my energy on my way out, so I had to sit down.
Don't worry about it. She'll get over this.
I found out today that she seemed tougher than me.
Really?
She changed overnight.
I don't know why,
but she wouldn't even look at me.
She gave me the ring back too.
It looks like she is determined.
Everything will be okay...
once I leave.
Bok Nam told me that you're leaving.
I thought that's the only way I can settle everything.
Didn't So Young ask you something?
Like what?
About us.
She found out...
that we were friends?
- Yes. - Did you tell her?
To make her break up with me?
I knew it. Something seemed weird.
She wouldn't give up before, but she suddenly quit.
Quit? She quit her job?
Don't worry about it.
I asked the director of nursing to not process her resignation.
I put her on a leave, so make sure you persuade her.
Anyway,
I told you that I'll be leaving. Why did you tell her that?
Things happened. I had no other choice.
I held myself back because I knew she would take it the wrong way.
She probably hates me a lot.
I'm so sorry.
This is the hardest on So Young.
You should comfort her as her mom.
Goodbye.
So Young.
Did So Young see us?
Yes.
Hello, we are Hanbit Medical Volunteer Overseas.
(Hanbit Medical Volunteer Overseas)
Thank you.
How long have you been a nurse?
Two years.
You either have to be a scrub nurse or have a lot of experience...
to be a part of the team on Doctors Without Borders.
I don't care if it's short term or long term.
I just want to leave as soon as possible.
Do you not care which area you go to?
I don't.
It looks like you are looking for a place to run off to.
You shouldn't be volunteering with such a mind.
To be honest, I am running away from something.
But it's because I think it'll be worse if I stay here.
I want to forget everything and focus on volunteering.
You need to be ready to sacrifice yourself to volunteer.
I heard that volunteering is a way to grow, not a sacrifice.
I know what it means...
to share, serve, be considerate, and be sincere.
Please, I ask of you.
There are a lot of volunteering agencies...
in other NGOs and religious sectors, so I'll look into it.
Thank you.
Hey, come here and give me a hand.
Do I have to eat...
black bean noodles with you on the day of my ex-husband's wedding?
Then have seafood noodles instead.
Anyway, why are you moving the sofa around?
Do you think it'll look great if I make a trail...
with some candles...
from the door to my bedroom?
Why are you doing something so cheesy?
We have to do our last homework for the couples' clinic,
and I thought we could use a change.
No matter what you do at home, it'll always be home.
Just go to a hotel.
My husband doesn't want to be at an unfamiliar place.
Right, Heo Se is rather tacky.
If you're so stylish,
why didn't you go to your ex-husband's wedding?
I thought you two decided to be friends.
It's not good manners for me to show up there.
My goodness, you are starting to sound like a decent human.
The bride...
won't look as pretty if I show up.
My gosh, I knew it. I knew you weren't decent yet.
Hey, how can you joke around when Dong Hyun is about to get a stepmom?
Go do your voice training or something.
You're of no help.
- Hello. - Hello.
Thank you.
Are you ready, my bride?
The bouquet isn't here yet.
It's not here yet? The wedding is about to begin.
I did get a call that the flight was delayed.
But if it arrived at that time,
it should be here by now.
We have 10 minutes left. Please get ready.
Excuse me, her bouquet didn't get here yet.
Do you think you can find one?
Do you want me to bring you the artificial flower bouquet?
No.
Then are you going to walk in without a bouquet?
I have to have a bouquet of lily of the valley.
Artificial flowers were pretty during our photo shoot.
But they aren't real.
I can't get married with artificial flowers.
Everything went perfectly until now...
just as you planned.
So can you please give up on just the bouquet?
The bouquet of lily of the valley is the essence of everything.
Everything I have done until now is meaningless without that.
But it's not like we can call off the wedding.
It'll get here. Please give me a little more time.
Goodness.
You need to relax your voice.
Like this.
Get it?
We've been doing that for three days.
I'm too bored. Can we move forward?
If you can't do the basics,
how can we move forward?
You need to relax completely.
Relax your shoulders, neck,
and be at ease.
Let's do this again.
10 minutes passed already. You have to go inside.
Yes, let's go inside.
No.
I can't walk in there without my bouquet.
You know exactly why I need lily of the valley.
Your boutonniere means "happiness found again".
My bouquet means "we will definitely be happy".
These are perfect flowers for us.
It stands for our wishes.
I can't go in there with artificial flowers.
They are fake flowers.
I can't turn my wedding into a fake one.
Then what do you want to do?
Let's wait a little more.
It's been 30 minutes. What will you do?
Half of your guests have left.
Let's apologize and go back inside.
I can't do that.
Call off the wedding.
Call it off?
- My gosh. - How long will it take?
- What's going on? - How long do we have to wait?
A bouquet isn't just some flowers that we use for a wedding.
It's what completes the wedding.
How can I get married without a bouquet?
But think about our guests...
and the time you spent to prepare for the wedding.
Let's just go back in there and get it over with.
"Get it over with"?
How can you say that?
We aren't here to play house.
This is my wedding. I can't just get it over with.
Some people believe a wedding is just a ceremony.
But that's not me.
Sometimes formalities are more important.
If the formality breaks,
what's inside breaks too.
Dad, the guests are almost all gone.
Director Kang, what happened?
Is the wedding still on?
I'm sorry.
What's going on?
Okay, let's call it off.
You're going to call this off?
Yes, her bouquet isn't here yet.
Her bouquet?
You're going to call this off because of some flowers?
Yes. Let's go outside.
What's going on?
You called a busy man out here.
- Where are their manners? - This is unbelievable.
What's going on?
What is it?
Let's go. Forget it.
- My goodness. - Let's go.
Wait.
Is it because we've been doing the basics for too long?
Okay, then. Let's move on from "a",
and begin "eo" as of today.
I will go first. Repeat after me.
Okay, go.
Hyeon U and I...
really loved each other.
It's all because of you.
You ruined everything! It's all because of you!
So Young.
Hey, So Young.
Don't follow me. I want to be alone.
(Medical volunteer overseas)
(NGO Overseas Medical Volunteers)
Oh, my goodness.
My gosh, this is unbelievable.
What's wrong?
I mean, you know, it's about the bride's bouquet.
The flowers.
Do you think it makes any sense to call off the wedding...
because of that?
That makes no sense.
They can just go and get a new one.
The flowers were supposed to...
get there from Greece or something,
but the flight got delayed, so it couldn't get there in time.
What kind of flowers are they to fly them over here?
It's called the lily of the valley or something.
The lily of the valley.
She called off the wedding because of those flowers?
What is wrong with...
I did think your stepmom is a bit too meticulous,
but she sounds like a perfectionist.
- I'm sorry, Dong Hyun. - Why?
It'll be tough to live with a perfectionist.
It was okay so far.
You said learning English was tough with so much to memorize.
Come on, I have to do it anyway.
You're a better person than me.
Mom.
Why didn't you tell me about getting kicked out of the musical?
What?
Didn't I tell you?
How did you know?
I called them because I didn't see your name on the poster.
Did they say I was kicked out?
I quit because the role wasn't a good match with me.
Mom.
Your voice doesn't sound too great.
Who said that? Did they say that?
I'm saying that.
You're a musical actress,
but you drink and smoke.
Hey, it's been ages since I quit smoking.
I even quit drinking recently.
I mean it. Look through my fridge.
You're right.
My voice is gone.
You might not...
get to see me sing from now on.
I have a bad feeling about that marriage already.
I don't like how Joon Ho is getting pushed around.
Even if she wanted to call it off,
he should have pushed forward like a man.
Isn't that right?
Yes, of course. I mean, they had guests too.
This is humiliating.
Anyway, Bok Nam.
You must be troubled because of So Young.
He's way too old for her.
Jin Ok won't approve of him.
Of course, she can't approve of him.
Her old friend came wanting to be her son-in-law.
Who would be happy about that?
Her friend?
What do you mean?
What are you talking about?
You didn't know?
I heard he's acquainted with Dal Sook and her friends.
Incheon is a small city.
If they did music together, I'm sure they're all friends.
Then why did they...
pretend like they didn't know each other?
I'm not sure.
Why didn't she tell you?
Wait, do you think they liked each other in the past or something?
Don't say that.
I don't know about anything else,
but I am sure that I'm my wife's first boyfriend.
You may be her first boyfriend,
but not the first crush.
(Dae Young)
Dae Young.
So Young, can you see me?
Hey, there's a bit of noise, but it's okay.
My gosh, it looks like you lost some weight.
How are you feeling?
I'm fine.
How are Mom and Dad?
They're fine. But...
Why? What's wrong?
Nothing. You should have called sooner.
You know that Mom and Dad are worried.
Where are you?
I'm at Kenya, somewhere on the outskirts of Nairobi.
I met an aid team from Korea.
An aid team? For what?
They do this and that, but mostly provide medical services.
You're still in med school. You can't provide any medical service.
You're right.
I should have finished at least a semester, I guess.
Dae Young.
Should I go there too?
Don't make such a joke.
People who come here are truly amazing.
They're people who can have a comfortable life in Korea.
But they come here and work hard risking their lives.
I really admire them.
I wasn't joking.
Don't be absurd. What about work?
I can quit.
Dae Young, I really miss you, so...
(Connection failed)
Dae Young. Dae Young?
Dae Young. Kim Dae Young!
Wait, was that Dae Young?
Yes.
It got disconnected.
Call him again.
- I can't get connected. - Try just one more time.
It won't work.
He met an aid team from Korea.
He's with them right now.
He's with Koreans?
I guess so.
Do you two talk to each other?
No, this was the first time.
That jerk.
Tell him to call me if he ever calls again.
And drink this.
You haven't been eating right lately.
Don't act like you're nice.
You are...
a hypocrite.
What? A hypocrite?
You pretended like you only loved Dad, but it was all lies.
You shout at Dad, don't give him any food,
and won't sleep next to him either.
Why did you do that? Was it because of Hyeon U?
What?
You used to pretend like you were the nicest mom in the world,
but now you're slapping me.
So Young, I'm sorry.
Why have you changed so much?
Did you begin to hate Dad and me after you began to do stuff...
behind our backs with your first love?
So Young!
Am I wrong?
You used to play the guitar...
and sing together to have fun at a live cafe.
Why did you two pretend like you didn't know each other?
Both you and Hyeon U are...
hypocrites.
So Young.
Don't ever meddle with my life again.
You have no right to be my mom anymore.
So Young.
I don't want to talk to you anymore. Get out of here.
- So Young. - Get out!
(Lady Cha Dalrae's Lover)
I thought you were on a break. Are you going somewhere?
I just want to roam about.
It's too frustrating.
Is it true that you dated him?
How can you have dated Hyeon U?
How can that be?
You don't have to wait around.
If you want to leave, leave now.
Really? Did you get your severance pay?
You knew?
I'll move out tomorrow. Give me your severance pay.
