(Celebrating Success Home and Abroad)
It's time to welcome our most important guest.
Cha Jin Ok who represents Korea's moms...
who returned to the workplace.
Why am I the most important guest when the CEO's here too?
This was his idea. Just go with it.
It's so nice to be able to celebrate with you all.
We sold out on yesterday's final show as well,
and I thought that this must be success.
I didn't achieve this success on my own.
I did it with the help of everyone here.
First, Mr. Oh Seo Jin, our CEO.
Although you fired me twice at the get go...
Ms. Cha, you hold grudges for a long time.
That was over a misunderstanding.
He trusted and believed in me to no end...
when I was a housewife with no work experience.
To tell the truth, I worked even harder...
to live up to his expectations.
Ms. Noh Jin Young from Dodo Home Shopping.
Thanks to you, Ms. Cha, I got promoted.
I'm now a team manager.
I followed her around for a week...
enough to become her stalker.
I thank you for putting up with me instead of turning me away.
That's the only reason we sold out on all of our six shows.
And then, next is...
my husband.
I want to thank my husband Kim Bok Nam.
Food should be enjoyed.
Congratulations.
You owe me all.
- Right? - Of course.
- A bonus? - Sounds nice.
(To my dear Jin Ok, from Kim Bok Nam)
She doesn't have a fever. What should we do?
Mom, you need to eat.
You can't move because you haven't eaten.
She can't even stand the smell of food.
Mom, stop being stubborn and see a doctor.
It's just an ache. I don't need to see a doctor.
I'll be fine after a nap.
- Honey. - We moved twice at a short notice.
- No wonder you're sick. - That's not all.
You sang at every gig you could to save up.
I know. I should've stopped her.
Honey, sit up. I cooked abalone porridge.
Have some.
You haven't eaten anything all day.
Here you go.
I used to make a full recovery after a two-hour nap.
Now my body just can't keep up.
Eat some.
What's wrong?
Do you feel nauseous?
I think it was the ice cream I ate yesterday.
I can't even stand the smell.
What is it?
I feel cold. Close the door.
Yi Ran, close the door quick.
- I'll take that. - I don't want to eat.
Honey, I'll... Hang on.
Just a minute.
I turned on the mat. It'll get warm soon.
We'll let you sleep for a while.
I'll leave the porridge right here.
If you get hungry, eat. Just a minute. Eat this, okay?
- Okay. - Get out.
Come in.
Give me a few minutes.
I'll finish this up, then come with you.
You don't need to bother.
What? Why not?
I got back from the Obgyn.
Why did you go on your own? I said I'd come too.
It's not like I don't know how busy you are.
And I'm not a princess who whines that I can't...
see a doctor without my husband.
So, what did the doctor say?
I was right. I'm not pregnant.
You're not?
What's that look about?
What look do you mean?
You said we could take our time,
but I guess you hoped for a baby?
I wasn't hoping.
I thought my dream meant something.
Everyone called it a conception dream.
Then why did you feel nauseous?
I have gastritis.
I was under a lot of stress because of Dad.
Were you very upset?
I'm still not very sure...
what is right.
Should we let him believe he's right or correct his mistakes?
I think the right thing is to respect what the patient believes.
Doubt, outbursts, fury, and violence.
They're all very scary.
And patients fear deterioration.
They also worry about inconveniencing family.
All those concerns lead to depression...
and cause them to want to run away somewhere.
Father's the same.
We must help him forget that anxiety.
How do you do that?
Don't do everything for him.
Instead, you ask the patient for help.
Ask the patient for help?
Yes.
Then they realize they're still of some use,
and feel a degree of happiness.
That reduces anxiety.
What should I ask Dad to help with?
I can't think of anything.
It's not too difficult.
Say you want to eat kimchi stew that he made.
- I could say that. - Right?
Kimchi stew?
I'm not a visitor.
Stay in bed.
I'm fine.
Did Jin Ok's party go well?
You bet it did.
Even some people from Dodo came by.
They're begging to schedule a second season already.
They want to stop her from going to another network.
I should've taken over the party...
and gotten her a better deal.
You must feel terrible enough that you couldn't be there.
Why did you eat ice cream that you don't even like?
I must've been crazy.
I suddenly craved ice cream.
Did you eat anything?
The thing is, I'm hungry,
but I can't stand the smell of food.
The smell of food?
That all sounds really familiar.
Heo Se made me some porridge and that...
I almost threw up.
I barely held back so as not to embarrass him.
Dal Sook, do you think you're pregnant?
My gosh, are you crazy? What?
Why would I be pregnant?
That hurt. You hit hard for someone who's sick.
I'm asking just in case.
When you got pregnant with the twins,
you lay in bed and couldn't stand the smell of food.
That was because I had morning sickness.
I guess at our age,
we should worry about menopause, not pregnancies.
Look after yourself and your health.
Do so while you're healthy.
When you got pregnant with the twins,
you lay in bed and couldn't stand the smell of food.
Hang on.
Honey.
What's the matter?
- I don't know. I don't care. - That hurts.
It's all your fault! What'll you do now?
- What'll you do? What? - Stop!
Why are you hitting me?
At least tell me first!
I can't stand you.
- Get out of my sight. - Wait, honey.
Get away from me. Get out.
- Darn it. - My gosh...
That really hurt.
What should I do?
A flower basket?
Look. Your dad gave it to me.
(From Kim Bok Nam)
"To my dear Jin Ok."
The sun will rise in the west tomorrow.
I bet everyone envied you.
My point exactly.
If he got this for me,
he should've given it to me in front of everyone.
I almost didn't even see it.
I guess he was too shy to do that.
I guess so. That's what he's like.
Why isn't he eating dinner with you?
Is he in bed already?
You weren't with him?
I wasn't. I just came from work.
Father said he'd go to your party.
He called me to ask what kind of...
flower basket he should get.
Your dad didn't come to the party.
Someone found this outside the showroom and brought it in.
Then he must've just left the basket.
Where do you think he went after that?
Just a moment.
This isn't good.
His phone's off.
What?
Didn't you just leave to go home?
I did.
But I got thrown out.
What? Thrown out?
What did you do to upset your wife?
I wouldn't feel this bad if I knew.
I left because she told me to get out of her sight.
Mr. Kim Bok Nam's son-in-law just called.
To the store.
I was so flustered that I left my phone at home.
What did he say?
He asked if Mr. Kim had come by the store.
There he is.
- Hi. - Hello.
Did something happen to Bok Nam?
He's gone, and we can't reach him.
Did he tell you where he'd be going?
No. He didn't come here.
Mr. Go, did he visit while I was out?
No, I haven't seen him today.
When he came by to see me yesterday,
we had a perfectly fine chat.
Yesterday?
Did he say anything then?
Yes.
He wanted to know what had happened in the meantime,
so I told him.
He said that his family must've suffered a lot,
and it seemed to make him sad.
To Cha Jin Ok, my wife.
Don't cause a fuss or worry about me.
I'm so sorry for all I've done.
Knowing that I'm sick...
and will plague you until I die makes the future sound bleak.
So I'm going to try to make it alone.
I will call you. Don't look for me.
Mom.
I called the police.
They'll check traffic cameras and trace his public transport card.
Your dad isn't lost.
What? What do you mean?
Why... What...
We can't find him.
What should we do?
Dad...
left home.
He visited Heo Se yesterday...
and asked about the recent happenings.
And?
Heo Se told him,
and he said we must have suffered a lot and felt sad.
He must've been shocked.
He didn't show it this morning.
He felt so bad that he didn't want to show it.
What should I do?
Cha Jin Ok, wife.
So Young, daughter.
Dae Young, son.
Mom and me.
Hyeon U, son-in-law.
You must be so upset.
You look terrible.
Did you not sleep?
Sit down.
Why are you here when you don't feel well?
This all happened because Heo Se...
ran off his mouth and said things he shouldn't have.
Bok Nam has a huge ego.
Even I'd want to disappear if I heard the truth.
It's not Heo Se's fault. It's mine.
Yesterday morning, he was unusually polite and kind.
I should've noticed it then.
I didn't because I was thinking about the party.
Where on earth is he?
Do you have any idea?
Hello?
Yes, that's right.
Kim Bok Nam is my husband.
Where?
Wurijib Care Home?
Okay. Thank you. Thank you.
He's at a care home?
- Yes. - My goodness.
Your dad...
didn't want to be a nuisance,
so he checked himself in for your sake.
I can't believe he thought that would help.
He still doesn't know his wife of 25 years.
You're right. What a stupid idea.
Freeze.
Don't you move one step.
Okay. I'll stay right here.
You go to bed. I'll do the dishes.
- Why? - Why do you think?
You aren't feeling well...
and I made a huge blunder.
What did you do wrong?
Everything.
What? "Everything"?
Yes.
All I did wrong in the past...
to all I will do wrong in the future.
So please forgive me.
This isn't something you can ask forgiveness for.
When Bok Nam comes home,
I'll keep my mouth shut around him, okay?
Is that all?
What do you mean? Did I make any more mistakes?
Is it because I was too happy that So Young's pregnant?
Don't you worry. It was a dud.
What do you mean it was a dud?
Hyeon U told me yesterday.
She saw a doctor, and she isn't pregnant.
Yes! That's the problem!
Darn you!
You made such a huge fuss and shook Hyeon U's hand.
I really don't know what to do now.
What are you talking about?
Explain it so it makes sense to me.
When Hyeon U said he thought he'd had a conception dream,
you caused a huge fuss and shook his hand.
Yes. What about that?
I think that Hyeon U's dream...
transferred to you with the handshake.
What?
Congratulations!
Thank you.
It must be the winter weather.
Static electricity can sting.
My gosh. So what?
So what if it's my dream. What am I to do about that?
Wait.
That dream...
It came to us?
Yes. What'll you do now?
My goodness.
Dal Sook! Dal Sook!
- Dal Sook! Dal Sook! - Are you crazy?
- Come here! - Hey!
- Dal Sook. Dal Sook. - Stop it.
- What are you doing? - Dal Sook! Dal Sook!
Have you lost your mind?
Why are you crying? What'll you do now?
How will we tell the twins?
How am I to raise a baby at this age?
Are you that pleased?
I'm pleased to death.
I, Tak Heo Se...
still have it in me.
I'm still alive!
Hooray! Hooray!
- What's going on? - Hooray, hooray, hooray!
- What is it, Dad? - What's going on?
- What's the matter? - Il Lan, Yi Ran.
In your mom's tummy...
Be quiet. Your dad's a bit crazy.
I must tell... Hey!
Is something the matter?
Why?
Your voice and expression, they're all very dark.
You said you wouldn't care about me.
I'm not asking because I care about you.
I asked because you're the lead...
of the musical I'm producing.
Oh, I see.
I'm sorry to cause concern over my personal issues.
So as you don't worry, Mr. Producer,
I'll try to smile...
and change my voice, okay?
I think we should call it a day.
Fine! Let's go on that third date!
What do you mean?
The last date we have left.
I hate having it on my conscience. Let's get it done with.
Shall I repeat what I said last time?
There's no need to go on that third date.
You said you always stick to what you say.
You're the one who wanted to take me on three dates.
I always stick to what I say, so I'll say it again.
You and I will be vocal coach and student,
producer and musical actor, nothing more, nothing less.
I'm so sorry for pestering you until now.
Hello.
What's going on?
Did you and Dong Hyun have plans to meet?
I came to take him to see a doctor.
Why? Are you sick?
You should've told me then.
Well, you're busy with your clinic.
I have a toothache and asked Mom to take me to the dentist.
Did you?
Let's see.
It'll be lunch hour when you get there.
Dong Hyun and I made spaghetti.
If you haven't eaten, do you want some?
No. I had a late breakfast and I'm not hungry.
I'll wait out here. Finish your lunch, Dong Hyun.
You like spaghetti. Join us.
- What? - Come on.
- I don't want to eat. - Sit down.
I'm glad I made extra.
Did you practice?
No. I have practice after the dentist appointment.
I see.
Does that jerk come too?
"That jerk"? Who?
He's not even the director.
Why does a producer come to practice so often?
Is he that bored?
Are you talking about Master Sagong?
Why do you call him a master when he's much younger than you?
He even confessed that he loves you.
Then just call him by his name.
Joon Ho.
Don't act so childish around Dong Hyun.
It's not like I'm wrong, am I?
Dong Hyun, listen very carefully to what I'm about to say.
Okay.
It's true that Master Sagong liked me.
He's a good person.
So I almost fell for him.
It's over now.
Why? Is it because of me?
It would be a lie to say I wasn't concerned about you,
but even if it hadn't been for you, I would've turned him down.
But then today, he told me that...
we should stop seeing each other.
You bet he would.
He's the third generation only son of a rich family and a bachelor.
He doesn't suit you at all.
You're right.
That's why I hesitated.
Because he doesn't suit me.
You need someone who can handle your free spirit.
That means you need someone understanding and liberal.
That jerk talks funny. Like he's stuck-up.
He's more like an old man.
Just looking at him makes me feel suffocated.
Then you're out too.
- What? - You're not understanding either.
Mom, don't think of getting back with Dad.
Even more so for me.
Hey, Dong Hyun.
Are you ruining it when I'm almost there?
This isn't what we agreed on.
I want Mom to be happy.
Whatever she does, I want her happiness to come first.
Dong Hyun...
Stepmom said that...
one should find one's own happiness.
I'm 16 now,
and I'm too old to let your presence dictate how I feel.
I enjoyed lunch.
Why... You...
He's in there.
Jin Ok.
Here, drink this.
The kitchen lady made it especially for you.
It's not as good as yours, but it's okay.
Drink.
Well? Isn't it lovely?
The mountain, hills, and trees.
It's like I'm back at the home I grew up in.
At work and at home, I wasn't taken seriously...
because I'm old and useless.
Here, I'm the youngest.
I'm so busy caring for the elders that I have no time to be sick.
What are you doing?
We're going home.
Home?
This is my home now. I must stay here.
Stop being stubborn.
I'm not being stubborn.
I swore something while caring for my demented mom for 10 years.
That if I were to get dementia, instead of bothering my family,
I'd go to a care home.
But we human beings are selfish.
Once I got sick,
I changed my mind.
I thought I could...
force myself to stay at home.
I only just got to see reason again.
No one called you a hassle or a nuisance.
I decided against divorcing you,
and So Young moved back home.
We're all trying to help you, so how dare you come here?
Let's go home.
Tell So Young and Mr. Baek...
to go back home.
They should stop dancing to a demented old man's tune...
and get on with their lives and have fun.
Honey.
Tell Dae Young to...
stop following me around like I'm some fool.
It's such a hassle.
We made a promise in Jecheon.
That you'd fight this illness with all your might.
We promised.
I will keep that promise.
However,
it's a battle that I will lose in the end.
I don't want to drag you and the kids into it as well.
Honey.
It's not a losing battle.
We all worked together and you got much better.
I don't know.
I might not...
even recognize you tomorrow.
If you can't recognize us, we will recognize you.
We will remember you.
It's not that complicated.
If our eyesight dims, we wear glasses.
If a leg hurts, we use crutches.
We will be your memories. We can get through this.
That doesn't make sense at all.
What about your life?
You married the eldest of a poor family and suffered for it.
Will you spend the rest of your life caring for a demented husband?
Don't ruin my life either.
Staying at home knowing my condition...
makes me a bad man.
Honey.
I'm sorry.
This is all I can do for you.
How am I to go home leaving you here?
I can't.
If I were here, would you be able to leave me and go home?
Of course. I could.
Why not, if you like it here?
As you can see, I'm selfish to the bone.
That's why I want to stay here.
I'm not capable of thinking about anyone else.
I like it here.
Honey.
If you miss me, come by again.
You and the kids can come and see me.
How long were we married for?
We moved in together when I got pregnant with So Young.
We were married for however old So Young is.
Right.
You married an old man...
and suffered all your life.
"Old man"? You haven't said that in a long time.
When we first met at the show home,
you were tiny and so smart.
You just looked like the old man you were.
The kid who followed me around calling me "old man"...
is all grown up and trying to look after me.
I just can't believe this.
You don't know what you're saying. I looked after you even then.
What are you saying?
You looked like you could kill an ox,
but you couldn't fight to save your life.
If only you'd stayed put.
Instead, you made things worse by always trying to solve problems.
Do you know how scared you made me?
Stop it. Why are you doing this?
You thugs!
How dare you?
I told you to stay away from my mother.
We're thugs?
Do you have a death wish?
- Oh, no. - Trash the place.
- Go on. - Throw everything away.
You thugs!
Hey, you!
