[Final Episode]
Say something, Kang Hee.
- I'm hungry. - Huh?
I couldn't eat anything all day, so I'm hungry.
Try it.
What?
Do I look pathetic?
Are you alright?
Of course.
I'm a person who values cost-effectiveness, so once I'm full, that's it.
If you don't eat, I'll eat it all.
Slow down.
If you're sad, just cry.
It's okay to cry.
I'm not sad.
It's because I feel sorry for Chun Pil.
He confessed that he had a terminal illness,
but his so-called daughter
just kept eating, saying she's hungry.
This is the pollack roe
that Chun Pil sent me.
Ah Reum brought it here, but actually,
Chun Pil is the one who sent it to me.
Gamtae seaweed,
frozen beef bone soup,
fist-sized diced radish kimchi, radish water kimchi, he sent all of these to me.
He thinks I don't know, but…
I know everything.
Even though I knew, I pretended not to,
or rather, acted like it was nothing,
and never once thanked him.
How long does Chun Pil have?
Huh?
How long does Chun Pil have?
On graduation day,
Chun Pil wanted to take a photo with me, but I didn't…
I should have taken it.
He said he wanted to see how I live,
but I told him it wasn't possible…
I should have told him to come in.
I told him that I found it bothersome
and didn't want to see him every Christmas.
When we meet,
he called me, saying, 'Kang Hee, Kang Hee!'
I was embarrassed by his loud voice,
and I didn't want to see that either.
I also hated seeing him come every year, trying to look stylish by switching hats.
Chun Pil always seemed like
he would be a nuisance,
constantly by my side, but…
What will I do if Chun Pil really dies, Yeon Soo?
That foolish Chun Pil,
he's such a scaredy-cat.
How frightened must he have been alone?
Please tell me that Chun Pil isn't dying because of me,
that he's not sick because of me.
It's not because of you.
Please tell me that
Chun Pil won't die, leaving only me behind.
Teddy bear.
Why are you crying?
Please tell me that if something happens to Chun Pil,
you'll be by my side.
Nothing will happen to him
and I'll always be by your side.
Why did you wake up? You should be sleeping deeply.
Let's go, I'll put you back to sleep.
When I left Hana-eup,
I promised myself I'd never live like Mr. Chun Pil.
But even on the day off from the construction site, with patches all over my body,
I still insisted on going to the movie theater to watch a film
and to the museum to see the exhibition.
I said that he was just trying to look cool, and I was gossiping about Chun Pil.
If you want to talk about him, I'll always listen, Kang Hee.
Even if I keep talking about him?
Sure.
I'll listen to you, even if you keep talking about him.
Even if I never saw him again in my life,
I thought I'd be okay.
Why do I regret the days I didn't see him?
Yeon Soo.
How long are you going to keep regretting?
You can see him from now on.
That's right.
Yeon Soo, by the way,
how do you always say the right thing every time?
Do you know the answer?
And how do you say things so nicely?
I never think of it like that.
How about becoming a bit more simple?
When you live worrying about too many things,
you miss out on things.
I see.
Alright.
Just simply.
Oh, it's our Seung Eon.
From now on,
I'll be your guardian.
You want to be my guardian?
Seung Eon, there's somewhere I need to go with you.
I have somewhere to go.
It's this way.
- Hello. - Yes, hello.
I came to apply for adoption.
It's an adult adoption.
And I'm the adoptive father, and he's the adoptee.
Do you have a spouse?
No, I don't.
Then you need to fill out the paperwork first.
Hello.
It's all done, now.
Mister.
Let's go get some jjajangmyeon with Dad.
Huh?
[Motel California]
Thank you
for taking care of Chun Pil all this time.
I'm sorry.
It must have been tough
handling it all by yourself, right?
If you don't tell me what's going on with him,
you'll be in trouble.
Alright.
Where is Chun Pil?
He's resting.
Chun Pil, are you inside?
Yes.
What are you doing?
Oh, now?
I'm trying to organize this and that.
Why? Did the doctor say you're going to die?
Come on, even if the doctor doesn't tell me that, I know it.
Jeez!
Alright, alright.
I feel good getting attention from you.
I should have told you earlier that I was in pain.
And I should've pretended to be a little sicker.
I heard chemotherapy is really tough.
I'll go with you some time.
Really?
Then,
take a number and wait.
There's a long line of people who want to go with me.
Just…
Just keep living as you normally do.
You live your life, and I'll live mine.
That's all you can do.
Don't worry.
Don't act all high and mighty when you're the one who's sick.
If you want to date her, go ahead.
Who?
CEO Hwang Jeong Gu.
Oh, my.
That was funny.
Should I call her?
Finally, my daughter Kang Hee has permitted our relationship.
With a rose in my mouth, should I give her a call?
Oh, come on! It's annoying.
Chun Pil, Chun Pil.
Chun Pil.
Chun Pil, what do I do?
What will I do without you, Chun Pil?
You are like
my real family.
It's okay. I'm not going to die right away.
Don't worry.
Oh, I'm…
I'm Lee Mok Won.
I've heard a lot about you from Su Ji.
Yes, you are fashion president from Cheongwon, right?
I've heard about you indirectly, nice to meet you.
Chun Pil, what do I do?
May I call you brother?
Yes, as you wish.
Su Ji.
Have a talk and come out. I'll get some fresh air outside.
Hey, sit down.
Hey, this is the first time I've seen someone
you've dated who actually has a proper business card.
Thank you very much, Su Ji.
Of course, you'd be thankful.
Aren't you glad you listened to me?
I mean, insurance!
I kept insisting that you get this insurance, and that insurance, remember?
You were so nice and listened to everything I said.
Yes, that's right, Su Ji. Thanks to you, I don't have to worry about hospital bills.
Oh no, why do you take money from the insurance company?
You need to be healthy!
If something happens to you,
I will follow right after you, so take care of yourself.
Alright, alright.
Ms. Hwang.
You should have informed us in advance.
Today, I'm not CEO Hwang from Golden Gilt, but I've come as Chun Pil's hospital mate.
Shall we talk together?
Should I be mentally prepared?
Kang Hee, Korea's medical technology is top-notch.
If he has the will to live, he can get better.
I did, and so did Chun Pil.
He'll definitely overcome it this time as well.
Kang Hee.
I don't have to worry about you, and I can still be his hospital mate, right?
Thank you, Ms. Hwang.
I'll continue to ask for your care and support for him.
Yeon Soo.
Shall I dry your hair?
- Yes. - Then I'll dry your hair.
How can you dry it without fingers?
Like this.
Isn't it hot?
It feels good. I wish you could dry my hair like this every day.
I'll dry it every day.
- Really? - Yes.
Then next time, I'll dry your hair.
Alright.
Is it done?
- It looks good, sir. - Thank you.
Did you check out the nursing home properly?
Yes.
But I don't want to send Mr. Chun Pil to the nursing home.
Motel California without Mr. Chun Pil feels too weird.
I feel the same.
Let's try to dissuade him from going to the nursing home.
We are all here, so there is no reason to go there.
I feel like he's rushing because of us.
I think he doesn't want to burden us.
Isn't there another way?
Alright.
Seung Eon.
Didn't you review the lesson from last time?
I did, but I couldn't remember it.
You can memorize all the poems I wrote, but you couldn't memorize this book?
That's because you recorded them all.
Shall I record this book for you as well?
- Really? - Yes.
Then I'd appreciate it.
Cha Seung Eon.
Don't give up, understand?
Answer me.
Yes.
Next chapter.
Ah Reum.
What is it?
Hand cream, you said you ran out last time.
Thank you.
Apply it for me.
No, it's okay.
Give me your hand!
A bit here, a bit there.
Your hands are really small.
What's going on?
Because of you…
Did you see that?
It was like…
It was an atmosphere where beauty, excitement, and pheromones were all mixed together.
Is holding hands like this
really supposed to be so erotic?
Let's try harder, too.
What?
Follow me.
Are you going to do this?
She perks her ears up and reacts very well to the surrounding noise.
I don't see any lameness now, so it seems everything is okay now.
That's a relief, right?
What are they doing?
Hey, hey, hey.
We're not like that. Don't get the wrong idea.
What do you mean by that?
We were just naming the donkey…
- I didn't ask. - We're really nothing.
Yeah, right, so…
Just finish what you were doing.
- Go for it! - I really mean it.
Senior.
We're really nothing?
No, it's not that…
Let's just go now.
Wait.
Ms. Nan Woo.
Can I confess?
What? You said you wouldn't wear this.
No way, you gave it to me.
You still have this?
Of course, you gave it to me.
Find the most appropriate one, okay?
Do I have to see it here, then?
- Good morning. - Good morning.
What? Red, blue… You two look like the Korean flag. So tacky.
- Until the East sea dries and Mt. Beakdu wears. - Until the East sea dries and Mt. Beakdu wears.
Kang Hee, didn't you see something really weird at the animal hospital yesterday?
- The donkey? - No, no.
Something even weirder than that.
Couples?
Yeon Soo, who gave Ah Reum the hand cream yesterday?
He didn't give it to her.
- He applied it to her. - He applied it to her.
Oh, what are you talking about?
Now that I look at it, the color of your scarf is really pretty.
Have a good date, I'm sorry.
Alright.
Yeah.
Did they get something on you?
No? What about you?
What?
Let's have some potatoes, grilled squid,
and also buy sweet potato sticks at the rest area.
Can you eat all of them?
Yes.
[Cloud Farm]
Yes, hello.
Oh, is she unable to walk because she collapsed?
It hasn't been long since she gave birth, right?
Yes, I'll go now, yes.
What are you doing? Go quickly.
I'll contact you when it's done, see you in Seoul.
Don't overdo it, and give me a call.
Get back safely.
I'll honestly tell you why I got divorced.
Truly, he was an unparalleled con artist.
From the beginning, he approached me for my money, not for me.
It seems like you have a similar pain to mine.
I know that feeling of betrayal very well.
It's fortunate that you found out before having a child.
I'm pregnant.
What? No way.
Sorry, I'm sorry.
I've lived in the U.S. for a long time.
Anyway, so…
Open-minded.
- Take care. - Yes.
Manager, where are you?
Kang Hee, sorry. How was the meeting?
How can you arrange the meeting and then skip it?
Did you forget the meeting time?
I can't leave because I have something important right now.
Can you come over here, Kang Hee?
What's the matter?
- Esther is now… - Okay.
Then, have a great day.
Bye.
Got to go, Kang Hee.
I'll call you later.
Hey.
How could you send him away without introducing him to me?
- It's a no. - Why? Don't you like him?
He was babbling in English, and he reminded me a lot of that rat Victor.
That's not okay. Disqualified.
Oh, then what kind of man should you meet next time?
Lawyer, Kim Seong Cheol.
How about this person?
I don't think I need to meet him.
What? Not good again?
Thanks to someone, my self-esteem has skyrocketed.
I think I can raise my baby well on my own.
You'll help me, right?
Of course, I'm the godfather.
Even if you don't, Little Heart will really like me.
Wait and see.
Okay.
Are you done? Will you come?
What?
Got it, I'll go right away.
Is he selling the motel?
People trying to buy the motel were coming in and out, causing a real commotion.
Mr. Kwon, what does this mean?
There's a letter from the boss.
A letter?
Hello?
This is Ji Chun Pil, the manager of Motel California.
The Motel California, which has warmly embraced us
until now, is about to leave our embrace.
However, its spirit will remain and is expected to transfer into my bank account.
I understand that this can be very perplexing.
It can't be helped.
Now, you'll each leave the motel
and find your own homes.
'Once you decide on a place, come and find me.'
'Whether you need a loan, I'll give you.'
It's something I could have never imagined.
Me too.
There are so many memories here.
Alright.
Hold on.
Suddenly?
In about a year, you will grow this tall.
Right?
Mom.
- Will you help me? - Yes.
It must be heavy.
Here it is.
Let's make it more beautiful.
Wow.
It's so pretty.
Look at the stars.
Kang Hee.
I brought everything.
- Alright, today's Korean. - 10, 100…
I've got 100.
No.
[No entry except for Kang Hee family, or else given constipation medicine]
- Catch me if you can. - Hey!
I'll go with you.
Me too.
Hey, won't you stop there?
Dibs!
[Kang Hee's Room]
Oh, come in.
Excuse me, let me take a quick look.
This room is big, and it even has a terrace.
This is exactly what Mr. Park was looking for.
Break the bathroom to install a glass wall.
No, no.
I need to split this room in half.
Why would I need a terrace?
People come to a motel to sleep, not to sightsee.
Please leave.
- What's the matter? - Ah, I'm telling you to leave.
- Are you the boss? - I'm asking if you're the boss.
- I'm telling you to leave. - Okay, I'm going.
I'll go, jeez.
The price is a bit high.
The price is one thing, but why does a motel need such a space?
This is a serious waste of space, overall.
How much will it cost to renovate all of this?
If it's not us, no one else will buy this motel.
Please leave.
The price a bit…
Please leave.
It seems like the owner…
Let's just go, let's go.
Doesn't have much business acumen.
Where is he?
Where is Mr. Chun Pil?
[Ji * Pil]
Mr. Chun Pil.
It turns out he really was sick.
How do I look?
Does my smile look natural?
Yes.
What about my voice? Is it okay?
Yes.
I'll be back.
Are you having a hard time?
Yes, I'm seeing things. There was definitely a nurse earlier.
I can see my daughter in front of me.
It's me.
I'll stay for just one night.
I've seen your face, that's enough, go.
I came because I have something to ask.
Motel California is like a part of you.
Why do you suddenly want to sell it?
May I ask the reason?
Because I'm scared.
Pardon?
Because I'm scared.
Holding on to the memories piled up here,
I might get obsessed.
And while letting someone take care of my illness,
I'm afraid I might want to live.
That's also why.
No, our Kang Hee…
After I die, I don't want my Kang Hee
to be here at Motel California,
struggling alone with the memories.
I have to clear it out, cleanly.
Can't you not sell it?
It's hard to take care of my own body.
It's cumbersome.
Then give it to me.
You were going to give it to me when you died anyway.
Give it to me in advance.
You hate motels, don't you?
I can change it.
I have things to do there.
What will you do?
In the future,
I'll have a daughter who resembles me.
Are you pregnant?
I said in the future.
If it's a daughter who resembles me,
I can't raise her alone, you need to help raise her.
You've raised me, Chun Pil.
You did a good job.
- I'll build a nursing home. - Huh?
Looking at you, it looks like you need that.
No, what's the use of having an interior design expert as a daughter?
You should use her skills in such times.
Chun Pil.
I'll make you want to live a long time.
I'll completely change our house.
How will you change it?
Completely!
That's funny.
I convinced Chun Pil.
I told Chun Pil that I would make our house beautiful
so he would want to live a long, long life,
and he said he'd think about it.
Then it's settled.
Well, who could beat our Kang Hee?
There's just one person.
Who is it?
Don't you know?
Cheon Yeon Soo.
- Me? - Yes.
No way.
What do you mean 'no way'?
How can I beat you?
What do you mean by that?
You always win.
I never won.
We were really cute when we were young.
Hey, your lips.
Hey, Han Ah Reum, do this for me once.
Hey, you do it.
She's closer.
I just went and came back.
What?
Kang Hee, when Chun Pil comes, we'll try to persuade him together.
I'll also bring some pictures.
So cute.
Here, do this while eating.
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Enjoy your meal.
I want to do it too.
[Gangwol Love Nursing Home]
Come in.
You weren't asleep.
What?
What's this?
Use this money to help build the nursing home.
Hey.
Look at this.
[Family Relationship Certificate]
Seung Eon.
I'm his son.
The government acknowledged it.
Yes, that's right.
So…
Whatever you do, let's do it together.
You are reliable, my brother.
My birthday is earlier than yours, you know?
So?
Even so, I'm still younger.
Say 'sister'.
- Sister. - Ah, I don't want to.
Good night, little brother.
Good night.
Sister.
Goodbye.
Kang Hee, drink while you work.
- Thank you. - Go for it.
Go for it.
The lawn is laid, and the furniture has arrived.
The construction is finally over.
So is the official relationship over too?
Wasn't it over already?
You didn't even come to Hana-eup for a while.
I admit it. I apologize.
Thank you for the quick apology.
I have a confession.
I thought you were using me.
But looking back,
I was the one using you.
I already knew.
From the beginning.
From the beginning?
I can see everything from the side.
Only the two of you don't know.
- Really? - Yes.
I bet even Little Heart knows by now.
That you two like each other.
Oh, so that's why your heart wasn't swayed by me.
No wonder.
I know that your feelings for me were genuine.
Thank you for treating me well all this time.
I don't know if I'll continue to treat you well.
I'll keep the promise I made to you.
The promise to have a grand opening ceremony.
The decoration team will come.
And there will be an on-site buffet.
We'll gather all the villagers and make it grand.
Then can I hold an event there?
Of course, do whatever you want.
- Alright. - When can I open my eyes?
- You can open your eyes soon. - Got it.
- You're going forward. - Yes.
Open your eyes now.
- Am I opening my eyes now? - Yes.
Wow.
Wow, it's pretty.
I wanted to show you first.
I'm touched.
He must really like it.
I'm excited.
Me too.
Yeon Soo.
Tomorrow is really important to me, right?
That I didn't live a wasted life in Seoul.
That I am not the daughter dragging down Mr. Chun Pil.
I really want to show everyone.
It will be like that.
Alright.
I'm proud of you, Ji Kang Hee.
I'm proud of you.
Isn't he crying because he's proud of you?
I'm going to do a presentation about the nursing home to Mr. Chun Pil.
Then, have you finished the design?
Yeah, should I show you?
- Close your eyes again. - Again?
- This time, I'll jump. - Got it.
Alright.
Jump!
Hey, I'm scared, I'm scared.
Another one, another one.
Another one, one more.
One more, one more.
One more, we are almost there.
Now, one more!
Since when did you open your eyes?
- From the beginning. - What?
Wow, are we doing it here?
Yes.
[O-tel Hana]
Ta-da!
Alright, from now on,
I, Ji Kang Hee, will now lead the PT.
Yes, understood.
Oh, this is nice.
[O-tel Hana]
Alright, let's start the rehearsal.
For now, don't actually cut it, but just pretend to cut.
So, it's not tape, but cutting the air.
We'll do the actual cutting when the client arrives.
But why are we doing a rehearsal?
We need to practice.
One, two, three.
Like this.
You're cool, Ji Kang Hee.
Looking good, O-tel Hana.
Great, please show the same enthusiasm during the main event.
I also prepared fireworks.
Kang Hee, can we throw confetti?
Sure.
Yeah.
Huh?
No.
Mr. Chun Pil can't come.
Should we postpone?
He told us to do it by ourselves.
Gosh, I don't understand. You go there. You guys wanted that, right?
Why is everyone gathered here?
If you go there, they provide a buffet too,
and they give out coupons and all.
Oh, it must be nice.
So go.
It looks better than the hotel in the neighboring town.
Right, the whole neighborhood has brightened up.
It's the landmark of our Hana-eup.
That's right.
Oh, Kang Hee.
Why are you here? Aren't you attending the event?
Hurry and go attend the event.
You're the main character today.
Right, we'll take care of him,
so hurry and go.
Oh, you raised your daughter well.
Yeah, she's been diligent since she was young.
Right, right.
- So diligent. - So smart.
Thank you.
In the future, please come often to visit Chun Pil.
Of course.
Don't worry.
Oh my.
I went to see Chun Pil, but the village elders were there.
So I thanked them and asked them to take care of him.
Like you said.
Well done.
Oh my, so pretty.
You did great.
But we're late.
Where to?
Oh, are you here, manager?
I'll go upstairs and come back.
Here, I brought the main character.
Hey guys, what are you doing? Kang Hee is here.
Didn't you have something to say?
- Go. - Let's go.
Ji Kang Hee, you look quite cool.
A rooftop pool in Hana-eup, that's amazing.
I'm a country bumpkin, so I've never seen anything like this. It's huge.
I always knew you would succeed.
Honestly…
Hey, let's eat.
I heard the news about Mr. Ji.
But don't worry too much about it.
My father had cancer too, but after surgery, he's perfectly fine.
Don't worry about things like that.
If you really want to run the nursing home… I'll invest.
No, not investing. I'll donate.
What? Why are you acting like this all of a sudden?
I'm afraid I might get struck by lightning.
Honestly, I did bully you.
But you bullied me a lot too, right?
Like, flying kicks and striking like lightning.
Anyway,
I'm sorry, Kang Hee.
It's too late, but I'll apologize too.
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
Kang Hee, I'm really sorry.
I'm less sorry.
Instead, I'll help you with a talent donation.
Before I became a police officer, my dream was to be a recreation instructor.
I even have a certification.
You should have ended it as a dream.
And me too…
If you have any questions or need anything while running the nursing home, let me know.
Tell me anytime, then I'll do whatever I can.
Because we're friends.
What, why are you all like this?
Hey, I came to remodel the motel.
I didn't know I'd remodel my life too.
Oh, seriously stop it, everyone.
- Should I hug you? - Is Kang Hee crying?
No.
- Are you crying? - What's wrong? Gross.
Look at your face.
Looks like everything's resolved.
Look at the eyes, look at the eyes.
Just hug Yeon Soo for now.
So what?
If Yeon Soo allows it, you can do it.

Are you okay?
Kwon, what's wrong with this?
- Ah, yes. - It's your responsibility.
Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas. - Merry Christmas.
You should blow.
Oh, thank you, these little munchkins.
These little things suddenly grew up and became bigger than me.
Thank you, everyone
for giving me such precious gifts.
I will never forget this forever.
I will live long and happily remember this day.
Kwon, thank you.
Yeon Soo as well.
Ah Reum.
Our Han Woo, oh, looks good.
My son.
Our Seung Eon, thank you.
And also my daughter.
Why did you give such a precious gift to me?
What am I supposed to do?
Jeez.
Dad,
I love you.
Don't get sick, don't die.
And live long and healthy.
Let's live happily, joyfully,
and excitedly with me.
Enough, enough!
Oh, I got goosebumps too.
It's snow!
- Wow. - Wow.
White Christmas!
- White Christmas! - Merry Christmas.
- Kwon. - Yes.
On snowy days, we have to eat rice cake ramyeon.
- I'll prepare it. - Rice cake ramyeon, deal?
It's been a long time, catching snow together.
Ji Kang Hee, do you know that?
What?
They say if you eat first snow ten times, you'll be with your first love.
Really?
That's…
I lied to you about that.
So what if it's a lie?
It came true.
Is it so?
Six times.
Ten times, all eaten!
Ugh, fool.
I wish I had my own room.
Your house has many rooms.
Not that kind of room.
When I grow up, I'm going to live in a house like this.
A house with a room, a living room,
a kitchen, and a yard.
I'll build it for you.
Just like you used to do,
I won't go anywhere,
and I'll stay close to you.
I love you.
Okay, I'm going to take it.
- Motel California! - California!
Go for it!
Oh, cell phone, cell phone.
On your forehead!
[Motel California]
