[Call Me Mother]
[Episode 6]
I don't have any anesthetics, so I'll have to do this quickly.
If you think this will be too much for you, please turn around.
I'll be fine.
Have you ever given someone stitches without anesthetics before?
Of course.
When?
Or maybe I haven't.
You should consider yourself lucky, Ms. Soo Jin.
My needlework is so good...
that my nickname is Zipper.
Give me just one minute.
I'll make the stitches look as neat as a zipped zipper.
Oh yeah.
Bite down on this.
The stitches will come out looking weird if you're too tense.
Don't worry about me.
Just pretend that I'm a bag.
A leather bag.
This is going to hurt a bit.
Okay.
You're doing great.
Oh, you're doing great.
How are you holding up so well?
Are you awake?
Can you tell me your name?
What's your name?
Kim Hye Na.
What about your mom's name?
Shin Ja Young.
We're almost done.
These are the finishing touches.
I told you that I'd stitch it up really nicely.
Our breathing was totally in sync.
Were you scared?
I want to go home, Mom.
You... want to go home?
Our house.
The barber shop.
We have to sleep here tonight.
What's the matter?
Were you scared because the doctor stitched up my hand with a needle?
It's okay. It's okay.
Is she sleeping?
She just fell asleep.
It seems like it hasn't been long since you moved into this place.
Well, it's been about two years now.
I keep telling myself every month that I need to unpack my things
If I knew you'd be coming, I would've cleaned up sooner.
All right, now...
I must ask you a couple of questions, as a doctor.
Are you being pursued by a dangerous person?
You mean this?
When it comes to this, I'm the dangerous person.
Nobody did this to me. I did it to myself.
A woman refuses to go to the hospital even though her hand is cut open.
That woman didn't go to the hospital when her child was ill, either.
And I treated that child and that woman.
As a doctor, I must know.
What have I done?
Did you have both of your parents around when you were growing up?
Yes.
Both of your parents were nice people, correct?
More or less.
Did you have a lot of friends back when you were in school?
I guess you could say that.
Have you ever run away from home?
Is this an interrogation?
Did you eat well?
Have you ever felt apologetic toward someone every time you ate?
Have you ever cried while dreaming about sleeping in a comfortable bed?
I was adopted.
I was abandoned when I was six, and was adopted when I was eight.
And I barely have any memories of my birth mother.
I never once thought that I wanted to meet her.
Because I'm not that woman's child, anyway.
And...
that woman is not my mother.
[Human Documentary - A Special Program Featuring Actress Cha Young Shin]
All children
have a mother who gave birth to them.
But...
not all mothers can raise kids.
The mom who gave birth to me
couldn't raise me.
So my current mother is raising me now.
And that's because
my current mother really needs me.
[Human Documentary]
Ms. Young Shin takes Soo Jin with her everywhere she goes.
She brings her to the set, the hair salon, and shopping.
Soo Jin will take Ms. Young Shin's maiden name
and grow up as Kang Soo Jin.
Now, we will follow this beautiful mother-daughter duo
and set off with them together.
I really need her.
She needs to be around for me to be able to focus
and for me to be at ease.
That's why the director is extra mindful
to make sure that Soo Jin is comfortable on set.
The one thing that I really, really don't understand...
something that baffles me so much
that I wake up in the middle of the night over it, is...
what kind of mother... could have abandoned a child like her?
A child who is so precious...
and special to someone else?
She must have been poor. She must have been unhappy.
She must have had a reason that she couldn't tell me about.
I couldn't shake off these sorts of thoughts.
Every time I put some delicious food into my mouth...
I thought that the person who'd given birth to me was starving somewhere.
I guess that...
I pitied her.
The person who tied up her own daughter under a tree and ran away.
But...
I met her today.
When I saw her in person...
I felt hatred toward her.
"How could you abandon your own daughter and run away?"
I wanted to scream that at her and hit her.
And so, I ran away.
You did the right thing.
That's completely normal.
Your hand will heal up in a week.
I think you were entitled to do as you wanted.
If it's not all out of your system, though, go and wreak more havoc.
You can hit her, kick her, or yell at her.
I will...
never see her again.
No.
You definitely will see her again.
You'll meander around, then end up seeing her again.
You'll meet with her and talk to her. And you'll meet with her and cry.
That's how people tend to be.
That's the only way you'll be able to get any closure.
I've never waited for you...
and I've never once thought that I wanted to meet you.
I've never once thought I wanted to show you
what kind of person I am or how I ended up living my life.
Not even once.
So, why?
Why did you run a barber shop here for so long, at a place like this?
All while being teased and called a witch by the neighborhood kids?
It pisses me off!
Mom.
Why are you locking me up here?
I'm not a bike.
It's going to be a while until I can come back.
But it'll be bad if you go somewhere and I can't find you.
I'm not going to go anywhere, though.
I won't go anywhere, and I'll wait right here!
You promised me.
That you'd come back and unlock this for me.
Yoon Bok! Yoon Bok!
Can you give this to your mom for me?
[Bank Account for Ms. Nam Soo Jin]
Hye Na...
where are you?
The attorney told me that they won't be able to indict me.
If they can't find Hye Na, the fact that we abused her--
Um, it's hard to prove that those claims are true.
And apparently, even if this case goes to court...
the worst sentence I'll get is being on probation.
Do you know someone named Kang Soo Jin?
No. Who's that?
Isn't she Hye Na's old homeroom teacher?
No, I don't think that was her name.
Go find out who Kang Soo Jin is.
Why?
If Hye Na is alive
it won't be good for you.
Did you sleep well, Yoon Bok?
Where's my mom?
She had an urgent matter to attend to, so she went out.
She'll be back before lunchtime.
You're hungry, right?
Let's eat breakfast. Come here.
I'm not going to eat anything before my mom gets here.
Why not?
This is super delicious, though.
I guess I'll have to eat this by myself, then.
What is it?
If you just pour hot water in this, it becomes tomato spaghetti.
It's my favorite.
And this...
becomes a hot serving of vegetable bibimbap if you just pull this string.
It's my second favorite thing.
And these are black bean noodles.
And this is a French military ration.
If you heat it up, it becomes chicken curry.
Curry? I like curry.
Really?
I guess I'll eat the curry, then.
Doctor.
Yeah?
We've met once before, right?
Yeah.
And back then, you asked me for my name and my mom's name, right?
Yeah.
My name is Kim Yoon Bok.
And my mom's name is Kang Soo Jin.
Don't try to find out anything more about us.
My mom isn't a bad person.
My mom is the most precious person to me in this world
and I'm more thankful for her than anything else in the world.
Yoon Bok.
What kind of doctor am I?
A medical doctor.
That's right.
Doctors aren't allowed to tell anyone what their patients tell them.
That's the law.
So, if I tell that secret to anyone at all
you can sue me, Yoon Bok.
Really?
What does it mean to sue someone?
Oh.
At any rate, everything we discuss...
will forever be a secret.
From Mom, too?
From your mom, too.
Do you think you'll be able to have some breakfast now?
Just because I'm eating this
doesn't mean I'll tell you anything about us.
I know.
I can't choose between tomato spaghetti and chicken curry.
At times like that, you have to have both, right?
Ms. Kang Soo Jin?
There isn't anyone by that name at our school.
Oh, so there isn't?
I see. Thank you.
Honey, they said there isn't a teacher by that name there.
You know, the teacher who came by before.
The one who came to the front of our house.
You mean that annoying woman?
No, the woman who came with that teacher.
Oh, was there someone else?
Go see that annoying woman
and ask her about Kang Soo Jin.
Do I have to?
Yeah.
Student.
Can you come back tomorrow? We'll stop for today.
What?
I'll cut your hair really nicely tomorrow.
Big Bro.
You have a big sister, right?
I can cut women's hair, too.
Bring her here tomorrow. I'll cut hers for free.
To be honest...
I did wait for you.
For quite a long time.
But I worked so hard for much longer than I waited...
to get my head on straight
and to stop waiting for you.
I told myself that nobody was coming to get me.
And that that woman had abandoned me.
That she wouldn't be coming back.
I persuaded myself, consoled myself, cried, got angry, and yelled at myself...
while my childhood passed before my eyes...
and my youth passed me by.
And now, I'm here.
Did you think that I would accept this, ma'am?
Did you think that I would thank you
and be happy to see you
and ask you if you've been doing well all these years?
If not, what are you doing here?
If you abandoned me like that, the least you could be doing is living a good life.
Don't you think that's the very least you could do for me?
I saw you...
on TV.
It may have been different...
if I hadn't seen who adopted you...
and how you'd been living your life.
But I did see you.
I did.
I was so sure that I could make sure that you wouldn't find out.
You'd never come to a barber shop, since you're a girl.
And it's not like I would've confessed this fact to you myself.
I just...
wanted to see you go to school and head back home every day.
I just wanted to see you every day...
and see that you were doing well.
That was all.
But...
I had no idea that you'd appear before me holding a little girl's hand...
and that she'd come running here
to the barber shop in such frigid weather.
I never would've expected it.
I couldn't...
just throw that away...
but I couldn't use it, either.
So I saved it up.
That is a record...
of how I've lived my life here...
for the past 27 years.
I thought...
that you may need it.
Even if I have to sell the clothes on my back because I have no money...
I will never accept your money, ma'am.
And don't say that you lived here for all this time...
because of me, either.
Because I will refuse to accept that, too.
Let me ask you just one thing.
Why did you do it?
Did you hate me?
Was your life difficult because of me?
Was it that you were only able to live your life...
without me around?
I don't remember.
So I keep thinking about it like a crazy person
over and over.
Tell me.
This is the only thing that you can do for me, ma'am.
You can't tell me?
I took back the money I gave you for a month's worth of rent
except the money I owe you for the four days that we stayed here.
Let's never see each other again.
Thanks to you
I managed to get a really thorough look inside of a police station.
It'd be good if you were cleared of all charges, I suppose.
So many people are working so hard looking for Hye Na
so I'm thinking about taking matters into my own hands, and searching for Hye Na.
Who's Ms. Kang Soo Jin?
Why do you ask?
You know, the teacher who came with you when you visited my house last time--
I forced her to come with me, and dragged her along
since Ms. Kang Soo Jin was merely a substitute homeroom teacher.
Oh.
So Ms. Kang Soo Jin
was Hye Na's substitute homeroom teacher. I see.
Yes, but she didn't stay at our school for very long.
And she had no interest whatsoever in Hye Na.
How do you know that?
Because the person who was interested in Hye Na was me.
The one who was worried about her
and the one who contacted the school, police, and CPS again and again was me.
She may have only been a substitute, but she was still her homeroom teacher.
Yet, she had no interest whatsoever in the child.
And she's not even in Korea now, anyway.
Where did she go?
Iceland.
That far?
She left before Hye Na went missing.
She said that she studied birds, or something.
Oh.
So she studies birds, you say.
I'm heading out now because I have an urgent matter to attend to.
But I'll be back before dinnertime.
Stay here until then.
We have to go, too.
We were planning to leave, anyway.
Are you planning to go to a hotel again with Yoon Bok?
Yoon Bok is scared of being here.
I'm going to try and find a place to stay as soon as possible.
I'll talk to Yoon Bok.
And I'd like to speak to you, too. Just for a moment.
Do I make you feel uncomfortable?
I'll sleep outside this house, then.
I'm more used to sleeping at the hospital, anyway.
Doctor.
Right now, I...
want to go where nobody knows us.
I would like it if there was a lot for me to do.
I would like it if I were very, very busy.
I'm very worried about Yoon Bok.
That she'll know that I'm not my normal self right now.
And that she'll think that I'm angry because of her.
I want to hurry and show her my normal self.
Yoon Bok is okay.
She's completely fine.
No.
Yoon Bok conceals her true feelings.
She'll say that she wasn't hit even when she was hit
and lies, saying that she's not in pain when she actually is.
The one being like that right now is you, Ms. Soo Jin.
Right now, your mental state is the same as if you'd been in a car accident.
Your bones are broken and you're bleeding profusely
and yet you're insisting that you can walk.
You feel like you can walk right now, don't you?
But you'll only be able to take a few steps before you fall down.
Get some rest. Please.
No.
I'm not that badly injured.
I abandoned that woman every day in my heart, anyway.
It's just that I abandoned her in real life today, is all.
You said that I wouldn't be able to walk, right?
You know, I...
can get up tomorrow and do the exact same thing again.
It really doesn't phase me one bit.
Apparently, she went to study abroad in Iceland before Hye Na went missing.
Iceland?
Yeah. Isn't that a relief?
The prepaid phone that you see here
can be transferred to up to four people.
There were three kids in our class who had cell phones.
But they were the type that they had to wear, right here.
So the only one who has an actual cell phone
is me!
I wish I could show everyone.
I wonder what they'd say.
There's something I need to tell you, Yoon Bok.
Look at Mommy.
Starting from today
we won't be living at the barber shop.
You're not going to ask me the reason why?
Is it because of me?
No.
I know that you and that lady got along well with each other.
That was so nice to see, and I was so thankful for that.
But Mommy and Barber Shop Lady ended up fighting a little.
You know that even adults can fight with one another, right?
Can I call Granny Finger?
I told you this before
but you can only call the number saved on that phone, which is mine.
You can't call or pick up calls from other people.
Okay?
Let's stay at a hotel for tonight
and then start looking for a place to stay at, starting tomorrow.
I won't leave you alone and go off somewhere anymore.
It's okay even if you leave me alone and go somewhere.
I have a cell phone now, after all!
At any rate
I'll come back before dinnertime now.
If you pull the string on this, it turns into bibimbap.
And I have black bean noodles, too!
I can eat by myself.
All right, thanks.
I'm going to go to the cafe up front for a bit since I have to meet someone.
Right now, it's 2:54.
I'll be back around 3:20 or 3:30.
Can you wait for me by yourself until then and play on the swings?
All right.
May I ask you who this is?
She looks like you.
There's still a lot of time until 3:20.
Soo Jin.
I know that you're smart.
And I know that if you wanted to disappear
you would've definitely been able to do so by now.
Somewhere I wouldn't have been able to find you.
Right?
But...
you always came back.
You have to come back on time this time, okay?
When your issue gets resolved, come straight back.
If you don't come back on time this time around...
I'll get really angry.
You understand what I'm saying, right?
All right, Mister.
So please, take good care of Mom so that she doesn't pass away.
It's not like your mom ever listens to me.
Granny!
"I caught a cold, so..."
Then, I'll do all the talking.
I got a cell phone.
But I can't call anyone.
Mom told me not to call anyone besides her.
Also, I don't know anyone's phone number.
I don't know my own phone number, either.
We'll be leaving soon.
When I'm all grown up, I'll come see you by myself.
I'll remember how to get here.
I have to go now, Granny.
Bye.
Um, yes.
Yes.
Of course.
Yes, then, just a second.
I'll write it down.
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh no!
Goodness!
Oh, no, no, no. I'm sorry.
I'll call you right back. I'm sorry.
Damn it!
Damn it, what do I do?
Oh, I'm sorry.
My mind was all over the place.
You're not hurt, are you?
Oh, um, what was that about? I'm very busy, you know.
- Ugh. - I'm sorry.
I thought I left my car in park.
I'm sorry.
All right, so hurry and call your insurance company.
Yes, sure.
I'll call them right now.
I'm sorry.
Hello?
Excuse me.
I want to report an accident.
This guy was the one who crashed into you.
What?
This guy's car backed into yours, miss.
You didn't crash into him.
Ugh, I'm so busy as it is! Damn it!
I saw everything.
I'm sorry, I'll call you back.
I'll check my dash cam, if you don't mind.
Damn it!
That thug!
Yes, hello. This is the insurance company, right?
This is Jongro-gu, Pyeongchang-dong, Pyeongchangmunwha-ro.
Which street is this?
- 24th street. - Oh, 24th street.
Yes, Pyeongchangmunwha-ro, 24th street.
There was a collision. Yes.
Thanks.
You're so smart.
Where do you live?
Um...
Do you live nearby?
The barber shop.
Oh, you mean Samhwa Barber Shop?
You're their child, I see.
No, that's not it.
We're just living there for a bit.
Oh, really?
What's your name?
I'm so thankful, so I want to send you something.
Um...
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
Big Sis!
Come here, Yoon Bok.
Her name is...
Yoon Bok?
I'm sorry, Hyun Jin...
but can't you keep it a secret that you met me and Yoon Bok?
Big Sis.
Mom raised three daughters without a father.
There's nobody else who'd understand you better than Mom.
It's because I'm running out of time.
We have to leave soon.
As quietly and quickly as possible.
I'll explain things later.
There's nobody who's more short on time right now than Mom.
Mom may end up passing away without ever even knowing
that you have a daughter.
You don't know how much Mom loves kids, do you?
Whenever she sees kids, her eyes start sparkling.
She's the type to cancel on a live show just for Tae Mi and Tae Hoon.
If Mom sees Yoon Bok
she'll feel more encouraged to live on.
It's most important...
to maintain her will to survive, don't you think?
I'm sorry, Hyun Jin.
But Mom wouldn't understand.
Neither would you or Yi Jin.
Because even I can't understand the situation I'm in right now.
The only thing that I know for sure
is that I must take that child
and go far, far away from here.
All right.
I do understand how you must feel.
But, I'm a reporter.
I'm just naturally bad at saying I haven't seen something that I've seen.
You've asked me to do something that's too difficult.
Have we been exposed now?
No, we're okay.
Don't worry about it.
I'm sorry.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Everything will be fine.
I have to go somewhere.
And I'll be back by 4:30.
Stay here and eat.
Let's go eat dinner together after I get back.
I'll leave my bag and my coffee here
so if someone asks, tell them that I went to the bathroom.
And if anything happens, call me.
Can you do that?
All right. Have a good time in the bathroom.
I'm home.
Oh, hey.
Oh, you're back?
Eat this.
- Rock, paper, scissors, shoot! - Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!
Yum, that's good.
Mom ordered beef from Hoengseong.
She wants to make sure she's well-fed before she goes abroad.
They don't have braised short ribs abroad, after all.
I'm here.
Oh, you're here? Your eldest aunt is here.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hey.
You came earlier than expected.
It needs to cook a bit longer.
It's delicious.
Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!
Don't you think she's suddenly being way too nice to you?
I feel like she's putting on airs as a future chairwoman.
What do you mean by that?
You don't know since you left early yesterday
but Yi Ji will become a chairwoman.
Ask our attorney when you next see him.
Mom.
I don't think I'll be able to eat dinner with you all today.
Why not?
Mom said that she'd be here at 4:30.
And it's 4:05 right now.
So, the amount of time there is left until she gets back is...
um...
One, two minutes...
three, four, five...
six...
Something urgent came up, so I have to go.
And...
as for the time that we meet each other
- let's meet earlier from now on-- - Soo Jin.
You have to tell me what the urgent matter is.
Everyone got together at this time today so we could have dinner with you.
So if you can't tell us why you can't stay
that would be too rude of you.
Wait, you're going to leave without eating?
I'm sorry.
What are you saying? Just have a bite, at least.
It's not like it'll take you several hours to eat.
Yeah, and tell us what this "urgent matter" is.
Doctor Jung?
What is it?
Wait, you're on your way to our place right now?
What? You want to know if it's okay if you take Soo Jin?
When?
Where are you going?
You're going on a drive
and then going to eat dinner afterward?
So you did have an urgent matter that you couldn't tell me about.
Eat before you go.
Doctor Jung can eat first, too. I've made more than enough.
Hey.
What's more important right now? Short ribs or a man?
You did even worse things when you were younger.
Hurry and go.
Soo Jin.
Get in.
Oh, goodness me.
Look at her, just getting in like it's nothing.
They don't seem to have an ordinary relationship.
I'm sorry.
I surprised you, didn't I?
Yes, I was surprised.
There's a place I really need to go with you right now.
But there was no way for me to contact you sooner.
And we can't be late.
Where are we going?
Um...
it's somewhere I go often in the evening, on weekends.
And sometimes I spend the night there, too.
Where's Yoon Bok?
What kind of relationship do Doctor Jung and Big Sis have?
I'm not really sure.
They have met up three times just this week, though.
What?
You really are amazing, Mom.
You go out of your way to find your daughter a husband
even when you're so ill.
Thanks to that, you managed to get married.
Yeah, but it's not a happy marriage.
There's no such thing as a happy marriage.
It's good enough that you gave birth to such cute pups.
- They don't suit each other. - What are you talking about?
How old is Doctor Jung, again?
- Isn't he younger? - What are you saying?
Soo Jin definitely looks younger than him.
It's a bit strange that a doctor his age is still not married, too.
If he were half decent, some woman would've snatched him away by now.
Maybe Doctor Jung has issues?
We managed to get here just in time.
We have to go in before the sun sets and grab ourselves a spot.
The evening migration will start soon.
When that's over, the oriental greenfinches will be the first to come.
Then, the meadow buntings. And then the woodpeckers.
And when it gets quiet...
take a good look.
The solitary snipes might even come out.
A solitary snipe?
They say that it takes three generations' worth of effort to see a solitary snipe
but I've seen them here for three years straight now, right around this time.
There's a valley if we walk a bit more up from here.
And there's a flat boulder near there.
Sit right there, and don't move.
The birds start moving around 30 minutes before the sun sets.
Hm, you should get going now.
You want me to go alone?
Just stay there for 30 minutes and come back.
All by yourself, in a place where nobody can find you.
Yoon Bok.
You're okay with being with me while your mom goes there, right?
Have fun, Mom.
There was a baby rabbit that wanted to run away.
"I'm going to run away, Mom."
"I'll chase after you if you run away."
"Because you are my adorable child."
"If you follow me, Mom"
"I'll go to the riverside and become a fish."
"And I'll swim away."
"If you go to the riverside and become a fish"
"I'll become a fisherman."
"Then, I'll catch you."
"If you become a fisherman, Mom"
"I'll go to a mountain that is much higher than the one you're at"
"and become a rock."
I'm going to give everything to this child.
I will give many, many things to this child.
Until...
the child forgets about all of her old scars completely.
That is quite important to me.
Because...
that is a matter that involves my very soul.
"If you go to a high mountaintop and become a rock"
"I will become a hiker."
"Then, I will climb up to where you are."
No.
I don't need a lot of things.
Getting things like that makes me think
that the mother who gave birth to me
may have abandoned me because she couldn't give me these things.
But I can live without these sorts of things.
I'm sure that the person who abandoned Soo Jin
had her own reasons for doing so.
But when I think about how my child was abandoned
my desire to be understanding of her circumstances completely vanishes.
The child had wounds all over her body
and she was tied down with a lock
so that she couldn't escape.
The only acceptable excuse to me
that I could be understanding of...
is that she died.
If that were the case...
I could say, "Oh, so that's why she could no longer raise the child."
and understand why she did what she did.
"I'll become a bird and fly far, far away."
If this goes on TV
will everyone be able to see me?
Everyone in this country will be able to see you.
Is there anyone that you hope will see you?
What do you want them to see about you, exactly?
That I'm doing well.
"If you become a bird and fly far, far away"
"I will become a tree"
"and wait for you here."
"Forever."
I'm doing well.
Are you taking customers?
Of course. Come on in.
What are their names?
One of them is named Soo, and the other one is named Jin.
Oh, Soo and Jin.
Oh, goodness.
I have to feed them.
Oh no!
The birds need to be fed.
Huh?
I forgot to return the key for the bird cage to her.
Even though I was the one who was in charge of the birds.
Yoon Bok!
Mom!
Did you have a good time, Mom?
Did you have a good time?
Big Sis has a kid?
She wants me to keep it a secret from Mom.
But I don't think I should.
Big Sis has a kid?
She wants me to keep it a secret from Mom.
But I don't think I should.
Why not?
Mom will be so happy if she sees that child.
At this rate, she'll pass away without knowing that Big Sis has a daughter.
Why do you think that we were unaware of the fact that she had a kid up until now?
If she had a proper child, then we would've known about her by now.
What if Big Sis is some married guy's side chick?
You think that Mom will be happy to find out that she's a home wrecker
and is on the run with a kid, when she raised Big Sis with so much care?
Even the strongest parents will crumble if they find out
that their daughter did something horrific.
Yet, you think Mom will be happy, despite this situation?
What do I do?
What do you mean? Keep quiet about it, of course.
We have to keep it hidden, and send them off well.
Wow, I really can't believe Soo Jin.
She was talking as if she had no intention of ever having kids
when we were discussing the inheritance yesterday!
Here I come!
Why are Mom and Auntie talking over there, when it's cold?
Mom and Auntie are talking?
Those two usually don't talk to each other.
We usually go to that spot when we're discussing secret matters.
Honey.
Do you know where Iceland is?
It's at the edge of the earth.
I think it'll be fine, honestly.
Even if that woman Kang Soo Jin took Hye Na
if the two of them are in Iceland, well, then...
Why did they say that she went to Iceland, again?
To study.
What did she say that she was studying, again?
Birds?
Honey.
Let's have a nice life now.
It's just the two of us now.
What are you plotting with Soo Jin?
She'll be leaving soon.
That's all I can tell you.
When is she leaving?
In about two weeks or so.
If she wants to leave, she should hurry. Why is she here for another two weeks?
Is there a problem?
I'll tell you later.
She's a home wrecker, and a single mom, to boot?
Wow, Soo Jin really is hopeless. I didn't think she was like that.
No, that's not what happened.
Yes, Madam?
Can't we stop by the barber shop, Mom?
Why?
I took the key for the bird cage by accident.
Granny won't be able to feed them.
I'm sorry, Mom.
All right.
Tell me your side of the story now.
I kept thinking that I should have told you about this.
But I'm sure that Soo Jin has her own reasons.
Hey.
Yes.
I'm sure that Soo Jin has her own reasons.
But that's Soo Jin's problem.
When were you planning to tell me about this, then?
First, Soo Jin...
would have to have made all the preparations to move with the child...
So...
Soo Jin has a child?
Those little--
Granny!
Oh my word.
Oh... my goodness.
Goodness.
You should feed them now, Granny.
I'm sure that they must have been hungry.
But is your cold all better now, Granny?
Thank you for everything.
Let's go again sometime.
Can we?
Let's go tomorrow.
Because I have to go to work on Monday.
Sure.
Is it because of me that you're not going in to say hello?
No.
Yoon Bok.
Let's get going now.
All right.
Oh my goodness!
Are you the woman who abandoned my daughter?
[Call Me Mother]
Is she the kid?
Why were you hiding her?
Is there a problem?
You're Kang Soo Jin's daughter?
- Yes. - I'm your grandma.
Grandma.
Could I see a photo of Hye Na, by any chance?
She seems to look similar to a girl that I know, you see.
What are the chances that I'll still be alive
to see a girl who is seven years old now enter college?
I remembered the memory that I'd forgotten.
The one where my mom, whom I'd waited for for so long, tried to kill me.
The woman from Samhwa Barber Shop...
go put her somewhere far away so that I will never see her again.
