(Episode 76)
Hyun Woo.
(30 years ago)
- What is that? - How is he?
The fever isn't too bad.
He's been coughing for a while though.
I'll take him to a pediatric clinic on my way to the hospital.
You'll do that?
Wouldn't it be better to just leave Hyun Sung with the housekeeper...
so I could take him?
I have no outpatient appointments or surgeries in the morning,
so I have plenty of time.
I'll bring him back home once he's done at the clinic.
- All right, then. - Mom...
Hyun Woo.
- Go see a doctor with Daddy. - Okay.
I'll be waiting for you at home.
- Say, "Yes." - Yes.
- Take good care of him. - All right.
- Okay. Let's go, Hyun Woo. - My gosh. Come on.
Oh, boy.
Here.
- Hyun Woo, it's your favorite toy. - Hyun Woo, here's your ambulance.
- Hyun Woo. Say, "Bye, Mom." - Bye.
- Bye, see you later.
We'll see you later. Let's go.
Say, "Bye, Hyun Woo."
I should've gone with you that day.
If I had taken you to the hospital that day,
you wouldn't have disappeared like that.
I'm sorry, Hyun Woo.
Mom is so sorry.
What are you doing here?
Oh, Father.
Wait downstairs.
Okay, Father.
You haven't been in this room for a while.
Have you...
made up your mind to clean out the room?
I know it won't be easy.
I also know you must be heartbroken right now.
Think about what we've been through.
We've been living...
as if we were dead.
Are you trying to say that Hyun Woo is...
probably dead?
I mean, if he were alive...
We combed through the entire country for years looking for him,
so it makes no sense that he vanished without a trace.
Like you said, if he'd died,
we would've actually...
found something.
Honey.
Get out, please.
I need some time too.
All right, then.
Like you said yourself,
Hyun Sung's baby is coming to us.
Let's think of it as Hyun Woo coming back to life...
and...
get ready to welcome our grandchild.
(Missing Child)
(Han Hyun Woo, Age 5, Male)
(Height 102cm, Slender)
(Last seen in Pediatrics Waiting Room at Haedeul Hospital)
How's Mother? Is she all right?
About the nursery...
Try to persuade your mother-in-law.
Pardon me?
Show me...
what you're capable of.
Father.
I know. It's been like that since this morning.
(Psychiatry Center)
Oh, we're leaving at the same time. This doesn't happen often.
My, we should totally go out for dinner and drinks together...
Forget it. Let's just go.
Well, how about we all go out for dinner together this evening?
Dinner?
Hey, what's gotten into you? You're suggesting we have a team dinner?
Yes, what's with you? Pigs might fly tomorrow.
I have an important announcement to make.
An important announcement?
Let's go to The Courtyard House.
Shall we head out now?
Okay, let's go!
- Let's go! - All right.
What's going on?
What do you think? We're going home.
Let's get going.
Wait. Let go of my hand.
To tell you the truth,
I had an older brother.
What?
You had an older brother?
Where is he now?
He went missing 30 years ago.
He went missing?
Was he kidnapped or something like that?
If that had been the case,
someone would have demanded money.
But it wasn't the case, apparently.
I was so young at the time.
So I don't remember anything.
So...
Has Mother been keeping that room untouched over the past 30 years?
Yes.
She just couldn't give up.
Is it possible...
that Father is involved in your brother's disappearance?
Sorry?
I mean...
I'm wondering if that incident has something to do...
with the conflict between Mother and Father.
The thought suddenly crossed my mind.
You're right.
Father took my brother to the hospital,
and he disappeared into thin air there.
Oh, I see.
Now I see why things have been tense between them.
Now you understand why I've been stressed...
by the atmosphere at home, right?
That's why I moved to the US...
as if I were running away.
Poor you.
I finally feel relieved...
now that you know everything.
Father spoke casually to me today for the first time.
He's treated me like a stranger until now.
I'll try to persuade Mother...
to make that room our baby's room.
Do you think that's possible?
I'll make it possible.
For Mother, Father,
and our Little Bean.
What?
You two are siblings?
Just sit down.
Why did you have to jump out of the chair?
Gosh. I just can't believe it.
What... Did you two know about this?
Was I the only one who didn't know?
I just happened to hear them talking about it...
while I was taking a cat nap in the night-duty room.
I'm sorry. You all must be shocked.
We have no more secrets.
We're as transparent as glass now.
Hang on. What happens to you guys now?
Isn't it obvious?
We are now the happy siblings at The Courtyard House.
Right, Soo Kyung?
Oh, my.
- Look at that. - It looks so good.
I'll do it, Mom.
My goodness. Mom, you made so much food.
Our family might go bankrupt at this rate.
You two look so much alike.
Why didn't I notice that when I came here before?
Enjoy the food.
And let me know if you need more food.
I'll enjoy it. Thank you, Dr. Chae's mother.
Oh, right. I mean, Dr. Jin's mother.
Thank you. I'll enjoy it too.
No problem. Please enjoy.
My, this is a feast.
Come to think of it,
you two look alike.
My gosh. Why haven't I noticed it until now?
That's not the case!
These two don't share a single drop of blood. They're not blood-related.
Didn't he hear anything at all?
Oh, that's right.
But why are you getting mad at me?
I'm getting mad at you?
Why are you two arguing as well?
Seeing people squabbling like this makes me feel traumatized.
The two of them argued so much too when they first met.
Well, we did squabble quite a lot.
But that's what real siblings are like.
Gosh, stop it.
Come on. Enough already!
Don't try too hard. It only makes it obvious.
All right. Everyone, fill your glasses.
- Let's fill our glasses. - Come and sit down.
- Here you go. - There.
Thank you, sir.
- Good. Pour her a glass. - Okay.
Wait. Hold on a second.
You all know you shouldn't give her more than two glasses, right?
"Angel Su Ji." No way. That's Monster Su Ji.
We should never let that happen, okay?
Okay. I heard you.
Bottoms up, everyone. Raise your glasses. Cheers!
- Cheers! - Cheers!
- Bottoms up! - Cheers.
By the way,
do you think U Ri and Soo Kyung are really okay?
I mean, they act like nothing happened between them,
which rather makes me worry even more.
My point, exactly.
It must be hard to act that way.
We all know how ardently they loved each other.
This must be what a twist of fate means.
I can't believe my two children fell in love.
Oh, right. I'll move out of my room tomorrow.
Thank you, Woo Chang.
Come on. It's not a big deal.
Anyway, I hope the room doesn't smell like an old single man.
Gosh. I guess you at least know you're an old single man.
Why did you make Yeo Jin upset...
and get dumped by her?
Gosh. Stop it already, will you?
You keep saying that when it's not a good thing to hear.
Gosh. I'll go to my room and clean it thoroughly.
I'll let some fresh air in too.
Goodness. He's running off because he has nothing to say.
You must be really upset, Jung Soon.
I'm upset, but what can I do about it?
There's nothing you can do when people aren't meant to be.
Yes, Mr. Kang.
Pardon?
Tomorrow?
Well... Sure. I'll call you as soon as it's decided.
Yes. Bye.
What did the songwriter say?
He wants to start working on his album tomorrow.
Oh, my. Do Young must really have the talent for it...
seeing that he wants to start right away.
So, did he say you should wire the money before that?
Yes. He said he had already started rearranging the song.
He asked me to hurry so that he could schedule the recording.
Honey, send him the money right now.
Ten thousand dollars isn't a problem.
If Do Young becomes a star,
our family will become so rich.
But...
Can we really trust that guy?
I think so. He was a judge on "Trot Survival."
I saw the award plaques and trophies that he'd received.
And I looked into him and found out that he used to be well-known...
even though he wasn't famous anymore.
Then you have no reason to hesitate.
You should send him the money right now.
Like they say, strike hot while it's iron.
Goodness, you. It's "Strike while the iron is hot."
You should either know the correct meaning...
or at least say the proverb correctly.
It's just the same. I don't see any difference.
Ten thousand dollars is all we have,
but he saw Do Young's talent, and he wants to help him develop it.
I shouldn't be cheap on it, right?
Okay. I'm sending the money, Mother. Here we go.
(Account balance: 10,003.50 dollars)
(Transfer, Account name, Account number, Bank name)
Hey.
- I'm home. - Come on in.
- My goodness. - What's going on?
Son, can you please give me an autograph?
An autograph? What do you mean?
Your album will be produced, starting tomorrow.
You'll become a star very soon.
What does she mean, Father? I'll make a song album?
That's right.
I've made my decision. I'll support you.
Support me?
Father.
Did he perhaps demand money for producing an album for me?
Bingo. He said he needed 50,000 dollars...
for producing an album and promoting it on TV.
I said I only had 10,000 dollars.
Then he agreed on the amount.
What?
Charlie Kang?
I've never heard of him before.
Did he perhaps say that he wants to produce an album for you...
and ask for money?
I'm not sure.
He didn't mention anything like that.
You can't trust just anyone.
Do Young, you're great, but...
All right.
I'll wire the money right now.
Showcase your talent as much as you want, starting tomorrow.
Watch me. With this finger...
I'm going to send the money...
Stop!
My girlfriend said I shouldn't blindly trust others.
Those who demand money are all scammers, apparently.
(10,000 dollars will be transferred to Charlie Kang's account.)
Charlie Kang...
Nothing's coming out.
There must be something fishy.
No way.
Yes, Doo Ri.
I just found something on the Internet.
Check this out.
There's a songwriter called Kang Man Cheol.
He was sued for a scam before.
What? "Kang Man Cheol?"
Wait. Stay on the line.
Kang Man Cheol.
(Composer Kang Man Cheol Sued for Fraud)
Yes, Doo Ri. It's him, Charlie Kang.
Really?
You didn't send him any money, did you?
No, we were just about to send him money.
Thank goodness.
Do not send him any money. Do you hear me?
Of course, I won't. Thanks, Doo Ri. I'll call you back later.
Father, you need to see this.
What is it? What's the matter?
He's the composer Father met a few days ago.
He approached aspiring singers like me,
offered to produce their albums, and got tens of thousands of dollars.
He's been sued for fraud.
What?
My gosh. Honey, did you hit "send" to complete the e-transfer?
No, I didn't. I totally didn't.
Oh, my Lord. Thank you.
My goodness.
We were so close to losing everything we had once again.
Hey, that call just now. Was it your girlfriend?
- Yes, it was Doo Ri. - My gosh.
Do Young, you have a girlfriend?
Yes. I do, Mom.
My gosh. So your girlfriend...
just helped us keep all our money? Oh, my goodness.
Hey, invite her over. Right now.
What?
My gosh. I really like her.
I'd give her a big hug if she were here now.
What's wrong, Father?
Well...
I still haven't learned my lesson after what happened.
I feel so pathetic.
Come on. You didn't fall for the scam this time, so it's all good.
Besides, I'm not really interested in becoming a famous celebrity.
We should hurry up and launch our business for Bibi Roll.
Yes, let's do that.
Nothing's more honest than hard-earned money.
(The Courtyard House)
Yes, attorney.
A witness who can testify to prove the content of the diary?
Oh, I see.
Okay.
What was that about?
Testify for what?
The attorney said I'd need someone who could testify for me...
to prove the reasons I couldn't look for my daughter.
Well, Woo Chang and I can do it because we saw everything.
I think...
those who made us end up in this mess should do it.
That'd be most effective.
Are you referring to Soo Kyung's dad and that brash woman?
I don't know about Soo Kyung's dad,
but do you think that woman will do it?
I'll make her do it.
All right. Don't worry.
Of course, we should do that for you.
Hey, when is the court date?
All right.
What was that about?
"Court date?"
It was Soo Kyung's mom.
She needs a witness to testify for her in the courtroom.
To prove the reasons she couldn't look for Soo Kyung.
So, she needs Yoon Ja to testify for her.
What?
Are you telling me to admit to everything I did...
in front of the judge?
Of course, you should.
Gosh, Mother.
How could I admit to that myself?
Do you want to see my kendo skills again?
Unless you want to get beaten with my bamboo sword,
you'd better go and testify for her.
Why did Sun Young change her mind again?
Didn't she say she'd decided to withdraw the lawsuit?
Why did she decide to move ahead with the lawsuit?
Su Ji practically begged her not to give up on the lawsuit.
Su Ji did?
Then what's happening between Su Ji and Sun Young's son?
What do you think? Legally, they'll be siblings.
My goodness. Does that even make sense to you?
They've probably ended things already,
or...
they've decided to break up.
Yoon Ja, you have to testify for her no matter what.
Consider it your only way to atone for what you did in the past.
Gosh, I don't know.
How could I explain it myself in front of the judge?
Don't worry. You won't be going alone.
I'll go and tell them everything too.
(Haedeul Hospital)
Come in.
(Haedeul Foundation)
Hey, what brings you here?
I had a routine checkup with my OB-GYN in the morning.
I see.
So, how's the baby doing?
Great. It's very healthy.
It's grown a lot, right?
Yes, it really has.
Well, I'm here anyway, so I was wondering...
if we could grab a bite to eat and go shopping together.
Shopping?
Yes.
Seeing the baby items you bought the other day...
made me want to go and check out what they have.
Shall we do that, then?
Let's head out, then.
Yes, Mother.
(Your healthy, happy life starts at Haedeul Hospital.)
Ms. Kim.
May I have a word with you?
I'm sorry, but please give us some privacy.
What are you doing?
I asked you to please apologize to my mother,
but it seems that you haven't done it yet.
Look, Dr. Chae U Ri.
Are you being reckless because you're trying to be a good son or...
Are you trying to warn me...
that I could be on the chopping block...
if I got on your bad side?
Ms. Kim.
I trust that you're not the type to mix work...
with your personal life.
I know it's rude of me to approach you this way.
But I saw you...
insulting my mother right before my eyes.
As her son, I can't let it go since my conscience won't allow it.
Do you know what they're talking about?
I'm not sure.
What are you still so anxious about?
Why would I be anxious?
You're not? Forget it, then.
I guess things are still going well between you two.
You two are always together.
I'm totally rooting for you two.
I really hope things work out for you guys.
For whose sake?
It can't be for my sake.
Don't twist it like that every time I'm being sincere.
I trust that you will apologize to my mother.
I'll be off, then.
Let's go, Mother.
What did you and Ms. Kim talk about?
Oh, I told her to send us money for the food they ordered that day.
What? Stop joking.
I'm not joking.
They can't expect special treatment just because we work for them.
How dare they dine and dash?
Times have changed.
You should go home after lunch.
I have somewhere to be.
Okay, Mother.
My goodness.
How dare you come back here?
I apologize for what happened the other day.
I'm glad you're here.
I actually wanted to talk to you about something.
Please take a seat.
I'm stepping out, then.
I'm sorry, Sun Young.
You don't need to apologize, Director Han.
But I was quite shocked.
I had no idea your wife thought that of me.
I never once imagined it'd be the case.
I don't know what to say.
With that said,
I must ask you to refrain from visiting my restaurant from now on.
Sun Young.
It's not easy for me to say this to you.
But now that I know your wife is distressed because of me,
I have no choice but to do this.
My wife...
has a big emotional scar.
And because of that, she has been suffering...
from severe depression for a long time.
Pardon me?
Of course, I know it can't be an excuse.
But it's the reason she made such a mistake that day,
so please don't get the wrong idea.
I understand. I won't get the wrong idea.
But that's all the more reason for you not to come here.
You should avoid doing things that might stress her out.
I understand what you mean. I'll refrain as much as possible.
(The Courtyard House)
Still, I feel bitter.
To me, The Courtyard House...
was the place that comforted me on every hard day.
It was basically my haven.
Director Han.
Such remarks you make are what gave your wife the wrong idea.
You should never say such things...
I know. I shouldn't say that again, right?
I'll never say it again.
You should leave now.
A long time ago,
my wife and I lost a child.
What?
Honey.
What are you doing right now?
This isn't a place for you to have a fight!
Is there even an end to this excruciatingly long tunnel?
Ma'am, do you keep the key to that room?
Look. I'm the daughter-in-law of this family.
For U Ri's sake, I will make sure...
to make you my daughter in every way.
What do you mean by that?
I guess you don't know...
why U Ri gave up on you.
