(Episode 107)
Make me a promise.
That whatever the doctor says, you'll get treated.
I'll worry about the side effects and aftereffects.
You just do as the medical staff say.
You're a patient, so act like one.
You don't have an option.
You get treated or you die.
It's one or the other, okay?
You're really...
scaring me to death.
Don't talk about dying.
Think only of how to live.
Yong Su Jeong.
Are you okay with me going blind?
What if I can't hear or walk?
Are you okay with that?
To be honest...
I'm scared.
That was why I couldn't tell you.
I'm not scared of being sick.
To be truthful,
it would be a lie to deny that.
But more than that,
I'm scared of knowing you'll struggle and suffer.
And that one day...
you might get...
just so exhausted you'd wish me dead.
That's what I'm most scared of.
See?
You're scared too.
Wear your seat belt, Eui Ju.
I'm a logical thinker. Don't appeal to my emotions.
You don't get a vote.
We must run some of the tests again,
but the tumor is very large.
That means the excision site will get too big,
so operating on it now will be risky.
There's still a way, isn't there?
He promised me he'd agree to any treatment before we got here.
He should.
First, let's confirm the cancer hasn't spread.
Then we'll combine radiation and chemotherapy...
to focus on reducing the tumor.
It wouldn't have spread.
Take good care of Eui Ju for me.
I knew I could rely on you and your expertise...
the day we first met, and I felt reassured.
Leave it.
It'll get messed up the second I lie down.
Get in bed.
See, this was why I didn't want to get admitted.
Everyone here is treated the same.
Old or young, rich or poor, everyone is equal.
That's only right.
Who says rich people never get ill?
You're right. So very right.
You need to fast for the tests tomorrow.
Okay.
I didn't want to tell you so I could avoid this.
Keep quiet if all you can say is nonsense.
You're beautiful.
My wife is the most beautiful person in the world.
I'm so blessed, aren't I?
What sweet nothings are you going to use to seduce me now?
- Come over here. - No, thanks.
Come here...
before I get really ill.
Hey.
Darn you.
Sit down.
Don't threaten me with that.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry...
you must see me like this.
If you feel bad, get well soon, okay?
Why are you...
so void of emotion?
- Are you half-dried Yong Su Jeong? - What?
You're acting like half-dried Yong Su Jeong...
You'll get an IV,
and it comes with some painkillers.
Try to get some sleep.
Yes, nurse.
Put me fast asleep.
How dare he tell me to see a psychiatrist?
All doctors...
blame the mind if the patient is physically fine.
It's just a suggestion. Don't heed it much.
I thought it was because I'd taken too many painkillers.
If it wasn't that...
I don't get why I'm like this.
It could be because you suddenly got so relaxed.
Mother.
You were on high alert your whole life.
You told me you grew up in a family of troublemakers.
Then you married my father and looked after his mother,
not to mention Yong Su Jeong and Yeo Eui Ju's sudden appearance.
Now that you took care of most of that,
you must be awash with relief.
Even so, I wonder if I'd get ill over that.
Reschedule the meeting.
Are you sure, Mother?
I can't just sit around and do nothing.
(Chairwoman Min Kyung Hwa)
Mother.
What's the matter?
You can't reach Secretary Na yet, right?
No.
Oh, and about Jang Myung Chul.
What about that fool?
It looks like he well and truly vanished.
I tried to find him as well.
The police hadn't arrested him at all.
But no one has seen him since.
I heard he was last seen in Incheon.
Did he stow away to another country...
or did something actually go wrong?
I must go home.
Shall I drive you?
No, I can manage.
Mother.
Are you all right?
What about the meeting?
We can't put it off forever.
You take care of it and run the important issues by me.
I should.
Replace the chairwoman?
Directors are even suggesting that?
They said she had a fit as if she saw a ghost.
What are Yong Su Jeong and Yeo Eui Ju up to?
They're oddly quiet.
If I were him, I'd be doing all in my power to become chairman again.
Neither of them came in today.
And it looks like those two...
are living with Gi Mi Yeon and Kook Jin Soo.
What?
I saw the four of them come to work together a few times.
They were discussing what groceries to buy on the way home.
Did they move out of the chairwoman's house?
(No food)
I'd like to register as a member.
(Brain Tumor Treatment Forum)
(Good luck, everyone! Let's get better soon!)
There are this many ill people out there?
Doctor.
You mentioned the cancer spreading.
Is that very likely?
We'll know for sure once the tests are done,
but I hope it hasn't spread to the cerebrospinal fluid.
If it has, it'll spread all over in no time.
Please, doctor.
I'll do anything.
Is there nothing we can do?
Eui Ju.
I'll make you better.
I swear I will.
Wait and see.
(My big brother)
(CEO Joo Woo Jin)
I'm going out for a bit.
List up the important agendas.
You succeeded, then.
It's only a success if he recovers.
He gets tested tomorrow morning?
When do you get the results?
Right away. His treatment program starts then too.
Go home and rest. I'll stay for a while.
No. We left to go on a trip.
Mother would get worried if I were to go home alone...
when we left together.
The doctor said it could have spread.
Even if that's the case, I'll do everything I can.
Whenever you see Eui Ju,
tell him it's no big deal.
That if it can't be cured here, you'll send him abroad.
I really can do that for him.
Like I said before, I'll help in any way.
Don't think of anything else and focus on Eui Ju for now.
I'll handle everything else.
I never thought I'd get to say this to you,
but you are...
a huge rock.
It's hard to believe, isn't it?
That I can discuss this with you now.
It's hard to believe considering what you did.
I'll think only of Eui Ju.
I can...
side with pure evil if it means...
he can get better.
You should go. I'll call when the results are out.
Su Jeong.
Take care.
What was that about?
What are they up to?
(Yeo, Myunghan Hospital)
Yeo Eui Ju is ill?
That was why they were quiet.
Woo Jin has to help her walk,
so Ms. Min does seem to be unwell.
There's even talk that they should replace her.
Really?
Min Kyung Hwa isn't that weak.
She even sent Yong Su Jeong and Yeo Eui Ju away too.
I called the old housekeeper,
and they were all let off.
Then...
it's just her and Woo Jin in that massive house?
It looks like it.
Yeo Eui Ju isn't the type to leave even if he were forced to.
What happened?
There was a reason for that too.
What's that?
Yeo Eui Ju is ill.
What?
Hey.
What's that about Yeo Eui Ju being ill?
Mom.
Hye Ra.
Do you know you've changed since he moved in?
You and I used to be so close with no secrets at all.
But now...
You're always whispering with him,
and you leave me out.
That's because we have stuff to talk about...
Forget it.
Finish the story.
Yong Su Jeong's husband is ill?
It looks like it.
He's in the cancer ward.
Oh, dear.
Why does Su Jeong have such rotten luck?
They just got married,
and her new husband is sick?
Goodness.
Yes.
Why...
are you making a face?
Is there a problem?
I have a feeling Yong Su Jeong is using Yeo Eui Ju...
as an excuse to hit on Woo Jin.
You what?
Those two are full brothers.
That would be one messed-up family tree if she hit on her brother-in-law.
I have a bad feeling about it.
Honey.
Do you want some water? Are you thirsty?
Yes, please.
Goodness.
Am I a baby?
You must be as obedient as one.
Lie down here next to me.
Come here.
Don't treat me...
too much like a patient.
You are a patient.
Look at this.
You're right.
Then I'll be the strongest patient in the world.
What?
I'll do everything it is...
that I can.
So don't think of giving everything up to look after me.
If you're stuck helplessly to me,
it'll make me a horrible guy for asking you to marry me.
Won't it?
I'll be weighing down...
the woman I love.
You won't.
I proposed...
because I wanted to help you release all your grudges.
So this is the one and only day you get to be my guardian.
And at home, don't make any more of those soups...
or veggie smoothies.
To be honest with you,
they tasted horrible.
Yeo Eui Ju, how...
When we get back, let's work hard,
make a strong net to catch Min Kyung Hwa with,
and grab her. Okay?
I'm not sure of that, to be honest.
But...
I want to believe you.
The strongest patient.
Okay. I'll put my trust in you.
Don't forget that.
I'm a strong patient.
(Registration and payments)
You can wait in the ward.
- Oh, okay. - Okay?
See you later.
I won't be long. Get some rest.
Yeo Eui Ju's condition is pretty serious.
Here.
Mother.
I need you to approve something we voted on yesterday.
You'd fallen asleep, so I couldn't give it to you.
There.
Do you need your glasses?
Wait here.
Here you go.
The glasses are practically useless.
Where do I sign?
Right here.
- Here? - Yes.
Get some rest. I'll go to work.
Okay.
(Power of Attorney)
(To Joo Woo Jin)
(Transfer of shares)
(Signed by Min Kyung Hwa)
Fortunately for us all, his cerebrospinal fluid is clear.
It's worth the fight.
It's all about energy now.
He must eat and rest well.
What are you starting at like that for?
It's just an ordinary drip.
Was the radiation tough?
If it is, say so.
And if something hurts, say so.
You're bombing me with lectures.
What shall I do for you?
Don't do anything.
I like things...
as they are.
It's Mother.
A video call?
Mother. Hi, Ha Min.
Yong Su Jeong.
Are you enjoying the trip?
Where did you go?
We...
We came to Ganghwa Island to see the seaside.
Did you really? That sounds lovely.
They went to the seaside.
That's great.
Auntie, bring home some seashells.
Okay, I'll look for some.
Where's Eui Ju?
Eui Ju?
He went to the toilet. I'll tell him to call when he gets back.
No, don't. You have fun.
We should get home this evening.
Okay. I'll prepare something tasty.
Drive safely.
It must be nice to go on a trip.
They'll take us with them next time.
Have you seen the seaside, Ha Min?
Yes. I went to Hawaii and Naples,
but it wasn't much fun.
Nap...
Why not?
Just because.
But I think it'll be fun to go with you.
Will Dad come too?
Of course.
He'll come too.
That was some quick thinking.
What should we do now?
About what?
Where are we to get seashells?
Why worry when we can send someone else?
What time is it?
Once Woo Jin leaves for work, Mother will be alone.
The house really is empty.
It's so quiet.
Who are you?
Min Kyung Hwa.
Am I hearing things now too?
This is madness.
What's wrong with you?
- Go away. - Hey.
Get lost.
It's right here.
Go away. You're not real.
Get away from me.
Get lost.
Go away.
What happened to her?
You're so very able.
Why do you need this stuff?
It's for your daughter.
What?
I said we'd come to the seaside,
and she asked us to bring seashells.
Right.
They think you're on a trip.
Did you bring the rest too?
Turnip kimchi, the hwamunseok mat, and walnut cakes?
Yes, they're all here. Take them with you.
Don't you forget them.
Well done, Woo Jin.
You get a thumbs up.
My gosh...
You could've stayed longer. Didn't you come back too soon?
I know, right? I wanted to stay longer,
but she insisted we come home.
My gosh.
The seashells are beautiful.
Where did you find all these?
I searched the whole beach as I thought of you, Ha Min.
Thank you.
Why did you buy so many things?
You were away for just a day.
This is tasty, Mom. It's a Ganghwa Island specialty.
Thank you.
Let's have dinner.
Wash your hands, everyone.
Okay.
I think you should have porridge today.
I'll eat just a little.
I haven't eaten since yesterday, and I'm starving.
Something smells good.
What were you thinking?
The doctor told you to be careful, that you could vomit.
I feel just fine.
Must you be like this?
I got back from a treatment.
Why worry when I can only get better?
You saw how pleased Mom was to see me eat.
I couldn't pick at my food.
If you really care about her, you should be healthy.
Shouldn't you do as the doctor says and get better soon?
Okay, fine.
I will.
I said I'd be a strong patient. Don't worry.
Yong Su Jeong. Trust me, okay?
(The Brave Yong Su Jeong)
It's Woo Jin who did this to you.
I will protect you.
I'll turn things back to how they were.
I think Jang Myung Chul is on the move.
I gave the chairwoman's secret account a nudge.
You seem to be up to something, but you're leaving me out.
I'm worried I'll become practically useless to you.
Open the door, Woo Jin.
Open the door right now.
Open up.
