(Episode 64)
Weren't you mistaken?
I wasn't.
I woke up during the night...
and saw Dad looking down at me.
That's odd.
I found him standing in my room last night.
- In your room too? - Yes.
I was surprised that he came in without a sound to look at me,
but he walked out.
Do you think he sleepwalks or something?
It's not sleepwalking.
It's the alcohol.
He was so drunk that...
Hyeon U carried him home yesterday.
You're badmouthing your husband to your son.
Good for you.
Did you hurt yourself?
While shaving.
Now even the razor's picking fights with me.
It's cold.
Of course, it is.
I called you for breakfast long ago.
I won't set the breakfast table three times a day now.
If you aren't on time, that's what you get.
You don't think much of the weak husband with no friends.
You're wrong.
Kim Bok Nam still has it. He's still alive.
That's hot.
That's it.
It's not bad enough to see a doctor.
Put some ointment on it regularly.
It's nice to have a son who studied medicine.
I didn't study much.
You got in. That's what counts.
You must've seen and heard things.
Later on, much later on,
when I'm very sick and end up in your hospital,
in front of everyone,
I'd like to say, "That doctor over there is my son".
That is...
my only wish.
What kind of a wish is that?
Will that day...
ever come?
- Dae Young, we're late. Let's go. - Okay.
Dae Young, you go ahead.
I have something to say. You sit down.
Didn't you hear? I'm late.
I have a marketing meeting this morning. So I have to go.
I have something to say.
Dad. Mom said she's busy.
I'm busier.
- Dae Young, you go ahead. - Okay.
Fine.
You have 10 minutes.
There's...
a paper bag in my room.
Bring it.
Oh, well.
Here you go.
Sit down.
What's that?
This is the deed to this house.
This is most important.
Losing this will cause a headache so keep it safe.
We have 10 years left on the mortgage.
This is the bankbook for mortgage.
The money's withdrawn on the fifth of every month.
Make sure there's enough in there.
And this.
It's an installment savings account I opened for Dae Young's tuition.
And then this is...
the lease to my store.
Wait.
What are you doing?
Why are you telling me all this?
You don't like how I control the finances.
So I'm handing it over to you.
I was in charge all our married life. Now it's your turn.
You refused to let me take over when I asked.
Why am I suddenly taking control of these?
Do it.
Your director couldn't stop...
commending you yesterday.
Can't someone that competent take care of something like these?
Forget it.
I'm not interested anymore so you keep doing what you did.
Why? You won't do it?
You love working at a company, but you've had enough at home?
I knew there was something.
Were you that irritated to hear your wife's doing well at her job?
So you stopped me from leaving to get some revenge?
Going to work isn't important.
These are our family's assets.
I'm entrusting you with everything so consider that an honor.
You never even let me touch the bankbook of the salary account.
Why are you handing over our family assets?
Tell me the truth.
Is something going on?
Where are you going in the middle of the talk?
I'm going to my store.
Come to the store when you're done.
What are you talking about now?
Close up the store from now on.
Learn how much I'm making.
If you're taking over the finances, do it properly.
What is wrong with you?
Darn it.
Hello, director.
I'm really sorry. I'll be 20 minutes late.
Yes. Sorry.
Hello.
No way. Did you just come in to work?
Yes. I had a few problems at home.
The director said...
you'd drop by Dodo Home Shopping...
and that's why you'd be late. Who's lying?
- Pardon? - Do you think...
our company's a joke?
Why would you say something like that?
Jin Ok, you got back from Dodo Home Shopping already?
Director, I don't think...
Ms. Seo, we have an urgent meeting.
Could you excuse us?
Why did you lie to her?
You should've just said I'm late.
She knows everything. That's why she's angry.
I see. I just wanted to help.
We have no time to talk about that.
There's an emergency.
The MD will visit our showroom at 11am.
- What? - Get things ready.
Let's get her interested.
Okay.
Soo Mi resigned.
I don't know why.
Soo Mi quit,
but everything else is the same.
Hello? Hello?
What's the matter?
That was another call asking for Soo Mi.
The call was definitely from one of our clients',
but she just hung up when I said Soo Mi had quit.
She was really good at grooming.
Was it because of her good personality?
The pets and owners all liked her.
No way.
This is your clinic, not hers.
Things aren't that simple.
Soo Mi worked here since I opened the clinic.
She has this connection with me and the clients.
- So Song Joo... - No.
I don't need an employee who lies.
It was a small lie,
and it's not like there's evidence that she lied.
Why do you need evidence?
She admitted it herself.
Joon Ho. No lie in the world is small.
A lie brings a huge disaster.
Fine, then I should hire someone else.
You can't work here every day.
It's okay.
I love spending the whole day with you.
We can't spend the whole day together. That's too much for you.
You need to care for Dong Hyun when he calls.
Oh, right.
He should be home soon.
I'll make him some snacks and come back.
Okay. See you.
- Bye. - Bye.
Take care.
Okay. Let's see who wins, Seol Song Joo.
Mi Rae, it's me.
Bad news. Dong Hyun's hurt.
Come to the clinic now.
In 10 minutes.
A lie brings a disaster?
Fine.
I'll show you what a disaster really is.
Mi Rae, I brought yukgaejang... Hey.
I have to go to Joon Ho's clinic.
Why? What for?
Dong Hyun's hurt.
Gosh, no, hurry up and go. What about this pot?
- Throw it away. - Why would I do that?
- I have to go. - Hey, I'll give you a lift!
Take your time! Wait for me!
Thank you.
Hard work never betrays you.
Your grades are going up, so try a little harder.
Okay.
You don't have to make me a snack every day.
I can buy something before my class.
Or I'll grab something to eat.
No. If it's food you eat,
I can't compromise.
Here. Drink this.
Mom.
What is it?
Can you not look at me?
I can't really eat...
with you staring at me like that.
You can't?
It's just that I'm so pleased to see you enjoying your snack.
I guess I was selfish. I'll let you eat in peace.
You're so cute.
- Dong Hyun, where is he? - You're here.
That was quick.
Dal Sook dropped me off.
Where's Dong Hyun?
Okay, the thing is...
You must've run here like crazy.
Your hair's a mess.
What are you doing? Stop it.
Smile, Mi Rae.
- Your hair is all tangled up. - Hey.
It's okay.
- I'll help you. - Are you crazy, Joon Ho?
Where's Dong Hyun?
Okay. Sort your hair out first.
- What? - Will you smile?
- Smile. - Stop!
Those two...
Is something wrong?
Something urgent came up.
Go to class. See you later.
Why are you out of breath?
That woman. Where is she?
That woman? Who?
Dong Hyun's mom.
What are you talking about? Why would she be here?
She was here 15 minutes ago.
Where is she hiding?
Song Joo, what's this about?
What do you think?
You called Mi Rae over in secret.
Song Joo.
Did you dream? Did you fall asleep in that short while?
I didn't dream.
Why are you lying?
Mi Rae was here.
Are you sure?
You say it as if you saw her.
Joon Ho. I won't be angry.
Just tell me why she was here.
Stop making things so awkward.
I can't say someone was here when she wasn't.
Can I?
My gosh.
He's going to deceive me, is he?
I saw her on my phone.
How dare she?
I'll make her pay.
(Doctor's Office)
Seol Song Joo. This is the nightmare you created.
Enjoy it all you want.
What's going on?
Dong Hyun's not at home.
He couldn't wait and came to the clinic.
Are you kidding me? You should've called me then.
He just arrived.
Sorry but you need to come back here.
Why would he move if he's hurt?
Is that what you're thinking about?
Get over here.
Okay.
Darn it.
- Bye. - Goodbye.
Hi, you're back.
Kang Joon Ho.
What are you doing with me?
Are you training me?
It's not that. Dong Hyun's...
Don't mention him.
I called him because nothing made sense.
He's in class.
Explain what's going on.
I'm really sorry.
Forget about what happened today.
You didn't see me today...
or talked to me on the phone.
What kind of prank is this?
I said I'm really sorry.
We didn't meet today, okay?
Even if Song Joo calls, you can't tell her you were here.
Okay? Actually,
just don't take her calls.
I get it now.
You got me involved in your couple's feud.
I'm really sick of this.
I'm so sorry.
If you use me once more, I'll turn everything upside-down.
Where are you, Nam Mi Rae?
Where are you?
Hey!
These two...
You just wait.
See you next week.
Goodbye.
My gosh.
You should've said you'd be going out.
I was so busy doing everything on my own.
You...
She...
Where's Mi Rae?
Not that again.
Are you really okay?
Joon Ho. Tell me the truth.
Dong Hyun's mom was here.
I'll tell you again.
Mi Rae was never even near here.
That's the truth.
Then what about at our place?
She was in our living room earlier on.
How could that be?
Why would she come to our house?
Song Joo, you're overworked.
You would be.
You're weak and you did all the housework and helped me out.
I should've hired someone sooner.
This is all my fault.
Honey.
Drink some water and calm down.
I'll be in my office.
Darn it.
Seol Song Joo.
You still won't come clean?
Fine.
Let's keep going.
I'll see how long you can stand this.
Father.
I came back to ask you something.
Okay. What is it?
How long will I last?
Pardon?
How long will I be a functioning human being?
Once you acknowledge you're sick, you should think of treating it.
Why would you ask such a question?
Think of treating it?
Dementia can't be cured.
How much time do I have?
Just tell me that.
You're very mistaken.
You seem to think dementia's a special disease.
It's not.
Just like high blood pressure or diabetes,
it's a condition that you need to monitor for the rest of your life.
Don't say that.
My mother suffered from...
Alzheimer's until she died.
I know better than anyone about that illness.
Mr. Kim.
Almost a million people in Korea suffer from dementia.
1 out of 10 people over 65 have it.
You're taking this as if it's a death sentence.
If so, why would doctors like me exist?
Then there's a way?
You think you lost even before the battle.
How could you ever win?
I guess...
the word "battle" isn't appropriate.
Dementia isn't something you should fight and conquer.
It's a condition you must live with until you die.
I knew all that was a complete lie,
but it was nice to hear.
This is how shallow us humans are.
Pardon?
That doctor we met.
He bragged that he could control dementia.
"If you think you lost even before the battle,"
"how could you ever win?"
That really hit home.
Father.
The doctor wasn't bragging or telling a complete lie.
Dementia...
is a message urging us to live the rest of the life to the fullest.
A message urging us to live life to the fullest?
I see many patients in Neurosurgery.
All those who have Alzheimer's progress at different rates.
Your progress will be slowed the harder you try.
No, I promise to make you better.
Yes, you'd better do that.
I have so much to do.
I must see Dae Young becoming a doctor,
and So Young having son and daughter.
I need to do well...
and pay you back too.
That's why from now on,
you must do as I say.
Why? Will you make me take out the recyclables?
Not that.
There are activities that stimulate the brain.
You can learn a language or play an instrument.
Exercise like walking fast helps too.
That sounds good. As long as I can get better,
I'll do anything you say.
You need your family's full support.
I think you should...
tell Mother soon.
Did you...
tell So Young already?
No.
She doesn't know anything yet.
Like I said before,
I'll tell them when the time is right.
So...
don't mention it now.
Okay, Father.
But the sooner the better.
Do you know what I mean?
Yes.
Thanks for understanding.
Dad.
It's really you.
I told you so.
Dae Young said he saw you here.
I said it was impossible.
Why are you here?
He made a delivery to the hospital...
and called me.
If you came to the hospital, you should've called your daughter,
not your son-in-law.
Be quiet.
We're all family. Who cares whether I called you or him?
I called whomever I felt like calling.
Get back to work. I should go.
Father, I'll see you out.
Forget it. I'm not a kid.
- You're all busy. - I'll walk you out.
I have to go to the ER anyway.
Do you? Let's go then.
This is unfair.
He never once came by to see me.
I feel incredibly left out right now.
It looks like you're closer to my dad than I am.
I guess so.
We're closer in age,
so I feel more comfortable around him than you.
What?
I couldn't have done it without you, assemblyman.
The stylist you recommended was an expert...
and the interior too.
I'll pay you back with a huge success.
Sure, talk to you again soon. Bye.
Bok Nam.
You're back right on time.
Did you sort everything out?
Yes, thanks to you.
Why? Do you need to go?
Yes, because of my office's interior.
An assemblyman I know...
set me up with an expert.
You got new furniture. You're redoing the interior too?
I just want to ask how much things will cost.
People from TV and radio stations...
come by entertainment agencies.
It would be nice to have a pretty office.
What's the matter?
Did I say something wrong?
No.
I think I kept a busy man tied up.
I'm sorry.
Don't you say that.
We've known each other for years.
I can do this much for you.
Since we're on the topic.
Now don't get angry with me again.
What did you get from the hospital?
What hospital?
You're pretending not to know again.
You asked me to watch the store...
and went to the hospital...
the conman's wife was at to get something.
Then you didn't return or call me,
so I had to wait for hours.
That happened?
- When was that? - What?
How weird.
Is he doing that on purpose or does he really not know?
It happened more than once. It's just so strange.
Next week we'll go over the logarithmic functions.
If you don't understand that notion properly,
you'll struggle with differential and integral calculus.
Okay. Since you're the one teaching us,
it's so easy to understand.
That's right. Thinking about the principles makes...
solving problems much easier.
Good. I'm glad that you're both keeping up.
What are these?
These are your report cards.
Wow. Your grades shot up.
Yi Ran did well and didn't have much room for improvement.
Look at my report card. I moved up 60 places.
You don't know what you're talking about.
Going from 179th to 119th in your year is easy.
It's much harder to go from fifth to third.
You're wrong.
I knew nothing about math and my grades soared 60 places.
Our homeroom teacher said it's almost a miracle.
Gosh, good for you.
Is 119th in your year a miracle?
Stop it.
You both did well.
Your mom must be pleased.
We haven't told her yet.
- Why not? - She wanted to show you first.
It was Il Lan's idea.
- Hey. - What?
When did I say that? It was your idea.
It was yours.
- Can't we say it was yours? - No.
It wasn't.
- It was her idea. - No.
Don't hit me.
Yes, Mom.
Hyeon U's friend at Pohang...
sent him a box of gwamegi.
So Young brought some for us to share.
Really?
Okay, we'll leave some for you.
He's tutoring, so he'll be late. He said to leave some for him.
That's odd.
He didn't like this when he was younger.
I know.
Like father, like son.
He takes after his dad as he grows older.
They both like gwamegi.
Thanks to Hyeon U,
your dad will get to eat all he wants.
Next week that friend will send a box of oysters.
He's been sending Hyeon U food...
every year since his brain surgery 10 years ago.
They must've met as nurse and patient and become friends.
Thanks to him, we get to feast.
Where's Hyeon U anyway?
He said he'd come over after a meeting. He shouldn't be long.
Yes.
The day I got lost.
Mr. Tak said that...
I went to a hospital to meet the conman's wife.
I don't remember that at all.
I don't know.
When I found you,
you were clutching the envelope full of money.
Yes, I remember you finding me.
But...
does that mean I got the money...
at the hospital?
Who on earth gave me so much?
Can't we find out if we visit that hospital?
Maybe.
I guess I really do have dementia.
How come I don't remember a thing?
Where's that money now?
I brought it to you two days ago.
I don't...
see the envelope anywhere.
I think you put it in a closet drawer.
I'm almost there. I'll help you look for it.
Okay.
Dad, dinner's ready.
Dad, what's the matter?
Where's your mom?
Why are you looking for me when dinner's ready?
Where's my envelope of money?
What envelope of money?
The one Mr. Baek gave to me a few days ago.
I don't know. I never saw it.
Hyeon U said he saw me put it...
in a drawer.
Then it must still be there.
Why are you asking me about it?
Come and eat.
Dinner's not important!
Why are you yelling?
Where did you put my envelope of money?
Where would I put something I haven't seen?
How unbelievable.
Cha Jin Ok! Give me my money back!
Have you lost your mind?
You were planning to keep...
the 70,000 dollars all to yourself if I didn't ask,
but you won't get your way, Jin Ok.
I want my money back.
So Young, what's up with your dad?
Dad, calm down. Mom said she doesn't know anything.
Instead of yelling...
- Get off me! - My goodness. So Young.
Are you okay?
How could you?
Where is it?
What is wrong with you?
Even if you hid it, I'll find it.
It's my money. It's mine!
Dad, Mom wouldn't steal from you.
Be quiet!
You're on her side. Do you think I don't know that?
I'll find it. I swear to you.
(Lady Cha Dalrae's Lover)
- Why do you say it's a lie? - Because it is.
I want to know the truth.
Song Joo, I do too.
I want to hear the truth. Do you have nothing to say?
- Well done, Ms. Cha. - Thank you.
I'll work really hard.
You got us on Dodo Home Shopping. That's amazing.
I'll bring the divorce papers. Sign them for me.
- I'm sorry. - Are you crazy?
Are you demented?
How am I to do something I don't know?
