Kang-woo, what's with you?
I'm sorry.
I don't think I can go eat with you.
I'll drive you home.
Something happened, didn't it?
Can't you tell me?
It's nothing much.
It's something that was bound to happen.
Kang-woo, look at me.
If something happens to you,
I should know about it too.
I want to know.
My father
is going to die.
Then why are you standing here? Hurry up and pass me your car key.
You have to go over to your father right now.
You can't drive in this state. I'll drive. Give me your key.
Let's hurry.
[Episode 10: Separate but Together]
[They finished operating on him, but he's still unconscious.]
[We have to leave it up to fate now.]
[How dare you come here?]
[Why are you raising your voice?]
Visitors are here to pay their respects. You're being rude.
Get out. I said, get out!
Someone shameless like you shouldn't be here.
I just want
[to see him dead.]
[Happy Together, Co-living House]
Did something good happen to you?
You look really lively these days. Don't tell me it's a man.
It's something better than that.
I'm studying hard to become a perfumer.
You fell in love with scents, didn't you?
You're so adorable.
By the way, Na-eun and Kang-woo haven't been coming out.
They probably want to be on their own.
They look like they're madly in love with each other.
So I wasn't the only one who noticed them stuck together like glue.
No wonder I could see hearts in their eyes.
Na-eun wasn't interested in dating at all.
This is completely unexpected.
What you see isn't all there is.
Kang-woo...
[Let's not tell the others]
[before Kang-woo talks about it first.]
I think he's busy because he has a lot of work.
He's busy with both work and love.
I'm so jealous.
Hyun-jin, I know you like cherries. Have some.
You're the only one who looks out for me.
Thank you.
Yes, Hyun-jin.
I had breakfast at the hospital's cafeteria with Kang-woo.
I'm fine, so you should take care of yourself.
You want to meet in the afternoon?
Okay, I'll see you there. Bye.
[Mom]
-Yes? [-Do you never call first]
[if I don't call you?]
[Why don't you ever call me first?]
I'm sorry. Why did you call?
[Have you been eating well?]
Are you worried I'd skip meals?
[I called Hyun-jin,]
[and he told me not to worry because you're doing well.]
[Do I really have to be so careful around my daughter]
[at this age?]
When were you ever careful? You always say whatever you want.
This is why I don't call you.
It makes me uncomfortable every time you talk bad about Dad.
[What? Hey, listen.]
[It's you who brought up Dad this time.]
[Isn't it true he used]
[all of your money and left when he was sick?]
[Why did you invest in someone who was going to die anyway?]
[I wanted the best for you, so I told you to think about your future.]
I would've done the same thing if it was you who was sick.
Even if you only had a day to live, I would've given all of my savings!
[Gosh. You can't even look out for yourself.]
[Fine. I guess you're not skipping meals]
[seeing how you can talk that loudly. I'm hanging up.]
Are you okay?
When your father regained consciousness,
I thought he'd talk and move soon.
It would've been difficult if I was alone.
But since you're with me, I feel better.
Of course. I should be there for you when things are tough.
I wasn't trying to eavesdrop earlier.
If you were trying to hide it from me, I'm sorry.
My mom has a new family
because she remarried after Dad died.
That's why we don't have a good relationship.
Just because she has another family doesn't mean you have a bad relationship.
Perhaps your personalities conflict.
That's so expected of you.
She tends to be tough on me so I would do well.
But our love-hate relationship is stronger than most moms and daughters.
I blamed my father's affair
for what happened to Mother.
Because I didn't want to blame myself
for being a bad son.
When Mother passed,
I wanted to change myself.
To someone who smiles a lot
and is friendly.
I'm still working on it.
I didn't know there was so much pain behind your smile.
It would be nice for your father to learn about how you feel.
["World Travel"]
-You changed. -How?
What's the reason?
Your face, those eyes, and the way you talk...
The more I look at you, the more
you look handsome!
Why?
Are you getting some kind of treatment without telling me?
Tell me what it is.
I was wondering what you meant.
Nice shot.
[Photos]
Gosh. Smile.
I like that face. Look this way.
Why are you taking pictures?
I think our marketing team
is looking for a model who kind of looks like you.
I thought they could reference it. Can I show this to them?
Okay.
You really changed.
You used to hate things like this.
If you want to get big as a model,
don't forget you have to sign with me first.
Na-eun.
I think it's time
I hear your answer.
Hyun-jin.
I like you a lot
as a friend.
I know
you know me better than anyone
and that you'd treat me well.
But
can't you remain as my best friend like you are now?
If you say you won't see me anymore
because I rejected you,
I don't know what I'd do.
I don't think I can live without seeing you.
I must sound selfish.
I'm the one that's selfish.
I wasn't considerate about your feelings.
Yet I am
telling you to accept my feelings.
I didn't want to hurt you.
You're my friend, and you're also the one
I dearly love.
I knew
you'd reject me.
But if you had accepted me,
I would've been really happy.
I'm sorry.
What if
we weren't neighborhood friends?
What if someone had introduced us?
What if
I confessed my feelings to you
sincerely with my heart
while carrying you on my back after drinking?
What if
I realized my feelings for you earlier?
I didn't know the phrase "what if"
could hurt so much.
I'm sorry
for hurting you.
Don't try to call it even by saying that.
If you're sorry, keep being my friend.
I can't live without you either.
Hyun-jin.
Don't make a face like that.
While dating Kang-woo,
if you ever feel like he's not the one, come to me.
Anytime.
Although I'm not sure if your place will be vacant then.
You know I'm popular, don't you?
[What Kang-woo likes, Conversations with Kang-woo]
[Kang-woo's seventh birthday]
[Happy seventh birthday, Kang-woo.]
[What did you wish for when you blew out the candles?]
[No, I'm not going to tell you.]
[You shouldn't ask something like that.]
[What Kang-woo likes]
[What is your favorite thing in the world, Kang-woo?]
[Kittens, strawberry ice cream,]
[banana milk, Mom's hugs,]
[and Dad!]
[Kang-woo and Dad's dream]
[Kang-woo, I'm going to start]
[asking you a few questions.]
[Okay, go ahead.]
[What's your dream?]
[Last night, I dreamt of going to an amusement park with you and Mom.]
[I guess you could also call that a dream.]
[I should've been clearer.]
[Kang-woo, what kind of person do you want to become in the future?]
[I want to become an amazing doctor like you.]
[I want to treat the sick]
[and save people who are dying.]
[People always come to you]
[and thank you for helping them.]
[I want to become a person whom people thank.]
[Kang-woo, you're so thoughtful.]
[I bet you'll become a way better doctor than I am.]
[What about you? What's your dream, Dad?]
[What? My dream?]
[You're my dream, Kang-woo.]
[My dream is to see you become]
[an amazing adult.]
[I want to see you live a happy life]
[regardless of what you end up doing in the future.]
[I hope]
[I can always be there to go through all the important moments in life]
[with you]
[just like now.]
[My son.]
[Kang-woo.]
[I love you.]
[I love you too, Dad.]
I
hated you, Dad.
From the very moment Mom passed away,
I blamed her death on you.
Young-seok told me
that your father regained his consciousness.
You had to go through so much.
Thanks to you, I feel a lot better after having confessed everything.
You confessed?
I told my dad how I felt.
I let out all the pent up emotions I had toward him.
I'm really glad to hear that.
Kang-woo.
Are you sleeping?
I guess you can't sleep either.
Today,
Na-eun rejected me.
She told me she wants to be friends.
I see.
I'm sorry to tell you this,
but I still like her a lot.
You can't just stop liking someone overnight.
I thought I was ready to get rejected.
But it's still hard to cope with it.
So I came up
with my own way to deal with it.
I was going to use my profession to help you feel better.
Let's hear what it is.
I may not have gotten what I wanted with love,
but I won't let that happen with my dream. I'm going to try doing what I wanted.
A travel writer.
Travel writer, Kang Hyun-jin.
You take great photos, and you've been to so many places.
I'm already excited to read your stuff.
You'd better not mistreat Na-eun
just because I'm no longer around.
If you do, I'll show up and snatch her away from you.
That should never happen.
I should be on my toes and do my best for her.
We won't be able to sleep together like this anymore.
You're right.
I will no longer get to travel the world every night.
I'm starting to feel sad.
I also found myself feeling really lonely
every time I sleep by myself these days.
I've gotten used to sleeping with your arm and leg on top of me.
Have a good night.
You too.
[Different Mental Health Clinic]
[I'm going to stop getting counseling now.]
What?
I can't rely on you to help me forever.
I think I can take care of myself now.
I'm relieved to hear that.
It's all thanks to you, Kang-woo.
No, to be more exact,
it's all thanks to you, Dr. Cha.
By the way, I'm going to move out of Happy Together.
Why?
It's not because of you, so don't get mistaken.
I'm getting ready to open up a perfume workshop.
And there's a place I can stay right above the workshop.
You put things to action very quickly.
I've been thinking of moving out before I studied to become a perfumer.
Fortunately, the workshop
is near my mom's hospital.
I feel so proud seeing you take initiative
and do things on your own.
You were
the first person to notice that I wanted to become a perfumer
and the first to show me support.
I can already picture a big smile on your face
as you make your own perfumes.
You gave me that smile.
Thank you.
I thought about what you said.
Okay.
I don't blame you for not wanting to get married.
David.
But I just wonder if you gave me another chance...
I'm different.
I'm not perfect, but
I love you.
I'm always going to try.
I want to be there
for you,
for your child, and for us.
You're not alone.
We can do this together.
Forget about the marriage. Forget about the wedding.
Let's just go back to where we were.
Can't we do that?
Don't you love me anymore?
Well, I still love you.
And I'm going to keep loving you whether you like it or not.
I also love you.
I wonder how you'll look
with gray hair.
Stick around and let me know.
Thank you
for understanding me.
What? You're leaving in three days?
Where are you going? Why?
Just think of it as an overseas training program.
I'll tell you once I come back.
How long will you be gone for?
Three weeks, just like your last trip?
Nothing's been decided yet.
It'll take a lot longer than you think.
You're not telling me why you're leaving
and how long you'll be gone for.
I don't know about anyone else,
but shouldn't you at least tell me?
Don't feel too upset.
I'm keeping it a secret because it's you.
What?
I want to impress you.
You know how I feel.
So trust me and show me your support.
Okay.
I don't know what you're going to do,
but I will support you no matter what.
After all, it's you.
Thank you.
But don't be gone for too long.
I'll miss you.
And contact me often.

[I know it's not easy to care so much about someone else.]
[And I thank you very much.]
I'm finally done.
You must not have had time to wash your face.
Don't look. I look filthy.
What are you talking about?
You look like you just came out of the shower.
You finally did it, Na-eun.
It's all thanks to you.
Stop saying that.
We almost broke up because I got too nosy
and did something you never even asked.
You weren't nosy.
You helped me achieve my dream.
Thank you for saying that.
I thank you even more.
You are also
a part of my dream now.
Gosh, if I lose to this, I won't be able to sleep at night.
What's that supposed to mean?
Your fingers worked so hard to type.
Your brain worked so hard to think.
And your eyes worked so hard to focus on achieving your dream.
Tonight,
my eyes will only see you.
You talk so well because you're a writer.
Be honest with me. You liked it
when I carried you that day, didn't you?
Back then, I just thought you were a psycho.
That's a little upsetting. I liked you from the first day we met.
Don't be upset.
I'll make it up by liking you even more.
How did I end up with such a wonderful woman?
Na-eun.
Na-eun, where are you?
Where do you think? I'm right here.
You're leaving without saying goodbye to everyone?
There's no need to do that. It'll only be awkward.
They'll be sad that you left without saying goodbye.
I'll be coming over really often. I'm not saying goodbye for good.
Just give me a few minutes. Let me drive you.
No, it's okay. When I first came here, I came by myself.
So I also want to leave by myself.
Then let me just get my jacket.
I'll walk you to the bus station.
No, I want to go alone. It's just what I want.
Hey, don't look so upset.
I want to leave just like how I came here.
You want some time alone?
Okay.
Can you find your way to your new place?
I'm not very good with directions, but I can still get there on my own.
You should get some more sleep. I'll call you as soon as I arrive.
Let me tell you something before you leave.
What?
Thank you
for waking up next to me.
[Happy Together, Co-living House]
I enjoyed my stay here.
[Happy Together, Co-living House]
I wanted to give her a memorable goodbye.
I feel a bit bad that she's leaving so quietly.
It's what Na-eun wanted, so we should understand.
Yes, you're right.
I'm going to miss you, Na-eun.
I'm going to miss her too.
I'll tell her that you all secretly watched her leave.
Don't forget to tell her, okay?
And tell her she's always welcome to come over.

I made matching perfume for you two.
Wear them with Kang-woo.
Layering them together will give a nice scent too.
Thank you.
I know this is going to smell great because you made this for me.
Thank you for the compliment.
As I didn't get a present, I'll go and buy one myself.
We can go together and buy the matching perform.
This event was for Na-eun.
So I only prepared one for Na-eun and Kang-woo.
You should come by my shop. I'll give you a huge discount.

-Please come. -Okay.

-Bo-ra. -Hey.
Hello, everyone.
I ended so late because I was busy
giving out Jung-hoon's portfolios.
I can't believe I set up an entertainment agency.
I'm the CEO and the agent.
You and Jung-hoon look good together.
But working with him is so nice.
What if Jung-hoon gets too famous
and leaves me?
I'm so worried.
Then, tell me. I will teach him a lesson.
So when is he coming?
Today is his last day as a bodyguard.
He'll come right after work.
Thank you for the ride.
Thank you for everything.
It was an honor to work for you.
Then, goodbye.
Jung-hoon.
-Can I call you? -Pardon?
I don't want you to be my bodyguard, but my friend.
If you're cool with it, I want us to be close friends.
Sure. Sounds good.
I'll call you.

-Jung-hoon. -Jung-hoon!
Hyun-jin isn't here.
Jung-hoon, have you been in touch with him?
He's not answering his phone. We don't know what he's up to.
Were you able to talk to him?
I guess none of you know what's going on with him these days.
Any news from Hyun-jin?
What? Come on, Jung-hoon.
How come you know, and I don't?
I sent him an email that we're having a book concert party today.
He did check the email, but he hasn't gotten back to me yet.
Is that so?
I really wished he'd be here.
He'll come when he's ready.
He'll show up like the man of the hour.
["Na-eun's Better Life"]
Na-eun's book was such a good read.
Really? That good?
Yes.
I'm sad that I wasn't able to attend her book concert party today.
But our doctor told me to be careful for a few days.
You know, I wish our child grows up to be just like the one in the book.
Same here.
Staying here with you does make me feel like we're doing this together.
As long as you're by my side, I'll do anything.

-Yes, I have. -Good, Kyung-won.
Have you been well?
You look cool.
Right. I didn't know you could pull off a beard so well like that.
Shouldn't you become an actor?
Kang-woo, you didn't tell Na-eun what I've been up to
for all this time, right?
Of course, not.
If you want to publish a book later, you'd have a lot of questions for me.
Why didn't you tell me?
Did you know I wanted to be a travel writer?
You left only with your camera. Did you think I wouldn't figure it out?
"I see. He probably left to take photos which he loves to do."
"And since he's traveling, he'll write too."
Did you think I wouldn't be able to put two and two together?
All right. We rarely get together like this.
We should take a photo.
Then, shall we ask Photographer Kang to set it up for us?
It will take the photo on the count of three, right?
Gosh, don't be so lame, Dong-seok.
These days, you have a remote like this.
All right. Look at the camera lens on my count of three.
Here it goes. 1, 2, 3.

[Better Mental Health Clinic] Right. Min-seo, you picked it out from my bookshelf
and decided to borrow it.
I don't know who she is, but I'd say she hit the jackpot.
Yes, I agree. Then, shall we begin today's session?
What? You changed the name of your clinic.
Yes. It used to be Different Mental Health Clinic.
[Better Mental Health Clinic] Yes. It used to be Different Mental Health Clinic.
[Better Mental Health Clinic]
But I changed it to Better Mental Health Clinic. [Better Mental Health Clinic]
"Better Life". With that word, I felt a rush of positive energy
and warmed my heart.
Excuse me.

How does it feel to become a celebrity overnight?
It feels surreal.
It makes me wonder if I achieved this without anyone's help.
It's like I'm dreaming.
No. I'm not trying to criticize you or anything.
I really didn't do it on purpose this time. You trust me, right?
I know.
I can't believe Min-seo wrote the review because she was moved by my book.
You are successful now
because you deserve it.
You went through so much to publish a book.
If I were you, I would have given up long ago because I'd be devastated.
Thank you for saying that.
I feel like I've become a new person after changing the name of my clinic.
I was so impressed by your naming skill.
Who knew you would use my name in such a clever way?
It's all thanks to you who accepted me when I was a bit different.
Thanks to you, I have become a better man.
Seriously. Such a smooth talker.
You will walk with me, right?
