(Episode 114)
Mi Ri Nae, are you okay?
Shall I call the doctor?
Mom, when can I go home?
If you eat well and get better, then you'll go home.
You feel cooped up in the hospital, don't you?
Yes, I feel cooped up.
Only Uncle Eun Ho, Auntie Eun Jin, and Auntie Do Young come every day.
Great-grandma, Grandpa, Grandma, and Uncle Do Sik never come.
And I thought Mr. Kyung Jun would come when I finished drawing this.
But he didn't come.
And I'm bored.
I'll tell you a secret.
I want to see Mr. Kyung Jun more than anyone else.
Mi Ri Nae, I'm here.
You don't have to visit us this often, Eun Ho.
The test results will come out today.
I want to hear it with you.
The results will be out later in the afternoon.
To be honest, I was so worried. Thank you for coming.
Ta-da. Mi Ri Nae, I bought a new storybook for you.
I'm excited. What is it about, Uncle Eun Ho?
I don't know. Shall we read it together?
Guys, it came out.
Hey, what do you mean by that?
"While Vice President Cha Yoon Hee of TS Retail..."
"was being investigated for embezzlement,"
"she also confessed to instigating a murder."
"Her son A has been charged with manslaughter..."
"and neglect of the victim,"
"and B, who used to work as Cha Yoon Hee's family's driver,"
"has been charged with murder of the victim C..."
"as per Cha Yoon Hee's order."
"Both of them are currently being detained for investigation."
That's a relief. Those who committed crimes must be punished.
See? Since I filed the complaint, things are moving forward now.
If we had waited for Yeong I to submit it,
those jerks would've fled overseas.
By the way, Yeong I is not at Chang Yi's place either.
Where on earth did she go?
Where is she? Why can't we reach her?
I guess you're worried about her even though you kicked her out.
Mother, please.
Well, I'm sure that she'll call us when she's ready.
If she doesn't come back by the end of today,
put an ad in a newspaper, at least.
- Sorry? - I'm not just saying.
Do you understand? Find her.
She must be hiding from us with her little child.
Unless you guys want me to die,
hurry up and find her.
- Well... Mom. - Gosh.
Oh, boy. Mom.
Should we really put an ad in a newspaper as she said?
By the way, Do Young, you go to work at different hours lately.
Some days, you leave in the morning. Some days, in the afternoon.
Well, it changes depending on the doctor's schedule, you know.
Eun Ho is very busy these days.
Ms. Im.
You read the news article, right?
My gosh. I wasn't so surprised to know about the embezzlement,
but Ms. Cha instigated someone to commit murder?
Isn't that frightening?
I'm more shocked by the fact that Director Jang was involved in it.
I know, right?
I couldn't believe it even while reading the article.
Good morning.
Ms. Kim.
Could our company fail...
because of all this?
Why would this company fail?
I think he's worried because of the news article.
We just have to keep doing our work as we have.
I'll go see Managing Director Jang.
(Managing Director Jang Kyung Jun)
This is the list of the new PB products...
to be released in the second quarter, sir.
Please review and confirm the list.
Okay.
Mi Ri Nae's test results will be out today.
You didn't call Yeong I, did you?
No.
I couldn't stop worrying about Mi Ri Nae,
but I didn't want to put Yeong I in a difficult position.
So I couldn't call her.
They've been talking about my family on the news, you know.
That's true.
I'll call her later and tell you what I hear.
Thank you.
Oh, hello, President Jang.
Oh, hi, Ms. Kim. It's been a while.
Why don't you stay for longer?
No, I should go. I only came to discuss work.
I'll leave you two alone.
Okay, then.
What brings you here?
I'm going to visit your mom in the afternoon.
Since she was arrested,
I haven't visited her.
I think I should see her at least once before the trial.
What do you want to do?
Please go without me. I'll visit Se Jun.
Right. That would be for the best.
Kyung Jun.
- Yes. - You must be upset about me...
- still caring about her. - No, I'm not.
I fully understand your position.
To me, she's only a person whom I resent.
But to you,
she's your wife whom you lived with for 30 years.
And she gave birth to Se Jun.
Don't worry about me.
If I...
think of what she did to you when you were little,
I'm too ashamed to even see you.
You were blind for 20 years because of her.
How could she ever compensate you for those years?
All I can feel is resentment.
But...
now that I know the truth,
I'll try...
to make it all up to you for the rest of my life.
No.
I...
want to forget that now.
I want you to forget it too. That's...
what I really want right now.
- Kyung Jun. - Only then...
can our family go back to how we were.
I'm asking you.
(Evergreen University Hospital)
My daughter has leukemia?
Why? There must be some sort of mistake.
Please run the tests again, doctor.
So Mi Ri Nae has...
acute lymphoblastic leukemia?
There are a lot of proven treatments for leukemia,
but in the case of Kim Mi Ri Nae,
her test for the Philadelphia chromosome came positive.
Therefore, chemotherapy...
and hematopoietic stem cell transplant are essential.
Eun Ho.
I don't understand a word he says.
He's saying that Mi Ri Nae will live, right?
We just have to find a donor who's a match.
I'm sure we can find one, Yeong I.
You should stay strong.
It's my fault.
I should have stayed by her side.
I'm a terrible mother. I...
My poor baby. What do I do about Mi Ri Nae?
Does Mi Ri Nae have any siblings?
No, she's an only child.
The first thing we should do is find a donor.
I suggest you have the test done first...
and ask the other family members to do so as well.
Yes.
I'll do that, doctor.
(Blood Collection Room)
You should tell your family now.
They should have the test done too.
I was going to call them after I heard...
about Mi Ri Nae's test results.
I'll have the test done first.
I hope I'll be a match.
I'm her mother, so I'll be a match, right?
We can only hope.
I wish I could be a match.
Hey, Yeong I. How's Mi Ri Nae?
How is she doing?
She said she felt cooped up.
So Eun Ho took her to the lounge in a wheelchair.
She can't go out of the building because it's still cold outside.
I see.
I heard the test results would come out today.
I'm calling you to ask you about that.
Her condition is not serious, right?
Hae Mi.
The doctor said that Mi Ri Nae...
Yeong I, are you crying?
Does she have a serious illness?
Mi Ri Nae...
has leukemia.
No... That can't be true.
Yeong I, tell me what the doctor said in detail.
Can it be treated?
I heard that leukemia can be cured in many cases these days...
since medical technologies have advanced greatly.
- Is it not true? - The thing is...
Mi Ri Nae needs to have hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
So I had the test done first, but...
Hae Mi.
I'm so afraid.
I'm terrified that I might lose my dear Mi Ri Nae.
Yeong I.
I've never let you...
see me like this before.
You look good even in that uniform.
How are you doing in there?
It feels strange.
Of course, it feels strange.
You used to go back and forth between work and home...
walking in high heels all day long.
Now that you have to wear that uniform and flat shoes,
it's natural.
Why wouldn't it feel strange?
But you know,
it's quite comfortable too, though.
I don't have to rush from one place to another anymore.
And I don't have to work hard...
and struggle to win anything or outdo anyone either.
I never knew it would be so nice.
I only...
did wrong things...
that would make you ashamed of me...
as your wife and as the mother of our children. I'm sorry.
You've always been...
on my side.
Your trial is coming up.
Are you worried about it?
I'll accept the punishment that I deserve.
I'm sure that's what Se Jun wants.
Yoon Hee.
Se Jun.
You seem more relaxed than you did as a free man.
Yes. I've been eating well and sleeping well.
I always felt like I was being chased.
I finally found peace of mind.
My body is locked up in here.
But I feel free more than ever.
Oh, I've been meaning to ask you something.
What happened to Mi Ri Nae?
She was taken to the emergency room.
She went home, right?
She's still in the hospital.
Hae Mi said she'd tell me when the test results came out.
But it seems...
that she's in serious condition.
I know...
that I have no right to say this.
But I hope that Yeong I and her child will be happy.
Yeong I lost her husband because of me and Mom.
And Mi Ri Nae grew up without her dad. I feel terrible.
So I hope that the kid stays safe and healthy.
Can you find out about her condition...
and tell me? Please.
Sure. I'll do that.
Mi Ri Nae...
is still in the hospital, right?
Yes. I heard the test results would come out today.
My son visits her often to check in on her.
The child keeps losing weight every day, as far as I heard.
Yeong I has been looking after her all by herself since she moved out.
I'm worried that Mi Ri Nae is sick on top of everything.
It's afternoon now.
Could the test results have come out by now?
If you're worried, I'll call my son and ask him.
Will you do that for me?
Of course.
Hi, Mom.
Hey, you visited Mi Ri Nae at the hospital today, right?
Have her test results come out?
Oh, that. Well... Actually...
What?
You didn't answer my calls. Did you go somewhere?
Oh, right. Yes, I visited Se Jun.
Oh, I see. Is he doing all right?
He said he's actually in peace.
Have Mi Ri Nae's test results come out?
Yes.
Kyung Jun.
Mi Ri Nae has leukemia.
Mi Ri Nae's condition is rare,
and chemotherapy won't be enough to treat it.
She needs a hematopoietic stem cell transplant to survive.
Yeong I cried her heart out.
I'll have the test done too.
She's been kind all her life.
I don't understand why she has to go through this.
Hasn't she...
told her family yet?
No. My uncle's family doesn't know about Mi Ri Nae's condition yet.
Will you go to the hospital?
I'm afraid...
I might put Yeong I in a difficult position.
But Kyung Jun.
I know the two of you broke up because of your circumstances.
But I'm sure that Yeong I needs your comfort more than anything.
I think I would.
Then if we can't find a donor,
we might lose Mi Ri Nae. Is that it?
We'll find a donor.
I'm sure we can find one.
I'll go and have the test done.
Who knows? I might be a match.
Eun Jin.
Sit down for now.
I understand that you must be worried.
I also know...
you would give yours to her if it's compatible.
But Eun Jin, you're pregnant.
Even if you're a match, you can't donate yours.
Then what do we do?
What do we do about Mi Ri Nae?
I'll have the test done, Eun Jin.
I'll go and take the test right now, Eun Ho.
Let's wait for Yeong I's results first. If she's not a match,
everyone in your family will have to take the test.
I took the test when Yeong I did yesterday.
Why do bad things happen to Yeong I?
She has done nothing to deserve it.
And why Mi Ri Nae? She's just an innocent child.
What do we do about Mi Ri Nae?
I promised her...
that I would buy her a new outfit and a school bag...
when she starts school. What do I do now?
I'll go to Yeong I's house.
You've been going there every day.
What will you do in that empty house?
I'll clean the place.
Yeong I and Mi Ri Nae can come back anytime.
I can't think of anything else I can do for them right now.
Do Young has become mature.
Do Sik is the only one left to mature now.
Hey, Do Young.
(Cafe Pareut)
Hey, are you crying?
Where are you going?
Mind your own business.
Dear Lord, Buddha, and Allah.
I know you all must be very busy.
But please keep Yeong I and Mi Ri Nae safe.
You don't have to take care of me.
But please help the two of them no matter what.
Don't you think Yeong I is pitiful from the deity's point of view?
I mean, there must've been a mistake up above.
Seriously, you shouldn't do this to her.
Hey, Do Young.
You went on about how much you liked Eun Ho.
But you moved in with someone else? Answer me.
What is this place?
How did you find me?
Did you follow me?
I followed you because you were crying.
Since you came home late every day,
I thought something was going on with you.
Who is he?
Tell me who you live with here!
What?
Isn't this Mi Ri Nae's outfit?
Yes.
This is where Yeong I and Mi Ri Nae live.
What?
Gosh, Yeong I.
She's been living here with Mi Ri Nae?
How long have you known this?
You should've told the elders right away...
and brought Yeong I home.
But you let her do what she wanted and cleaned the place for her?
Is your family name really Kim? Are you sure it's not Lee?
Does that even matter?
You always make others choose a side and go back on your word.
This is why I couldn't tell you anything.
Don't you know why Yeong I left home?
She left because we didn't treat her as a part of our family!
Do you even know what she's going through now?
Since when were you so good with words?
What is going on with her?
I mean, she left home without even submitting the complaint,
but she didn't call any of us...
even when the news articles about their trials came out.
Mi Ri Nae is sick. She has leukemia.
What?
Leukemia?
It's all because of our family.
Because we kicked Yeong I out, Mi Ri Nae is sick now.
What do we do?
I feel so bad for Mi Ri Nae. What should we do about her?
Honey.
Don't you think we should talk about our future?
I mean,
you shouldn't keep wasting your time like this...
when all those around your age work hard.
You should start your career again.
If you don't work for too long,
you won't be able to get a good job.
Do you have any plans?
Must I make those plans alone?
Have you ever thought of what to do to make ends meet?
Well, I've thought about the dishes to make for you and Hae Mi.
But making money was never my job.
That's your job.
You're at it again.
It hasn't been so long since I resigned.
It hasn't even been three months.
Can't I take a 3-month break when I worked for 30 years?
It's just that it's unexpected.
All you ever did was work. Aren't you itching to work again?
I mean, I'm itching to go out, honey.
That's because you can't spend as much money as you used to.
That being said, how much will you give me for living expenses?
I'll give you half the amount I used to give you.
Half of it would be enough for our family.
Only half?
But... That's too little. I mean...
You have some money saved up.
Let's spend that money on living expenses, okay?
You lost all of the money in the accounts under your name.
I'll spend the money in my accounts just as I want.
Don't expect me to give you any of it.
To be blunt,
you spend money only on shopping.
You're wrong. As Yeong I's aunt-in-law,
I was going to help her with Mi Ri Nae's medical bills.
As if.
You didn't even visit Mi Ri Nae at the hospital.
I would only cause trouble if I know anything.
I mean, if I go to see Mi Ri Nae,
I would probably call Eun Sook.
You told me not to call her.
Gosh.
By the way, I wonder if the test results came out.
- Thank you. Goodbye. - I hope to see you again soon.
Where on earth did Do Sik go?
Didn't he tell you where he was going either?
- No, he didn't. - Goodness.
That brat.
He seemed to work hard for a while, but he's slacking off again.
Gosh, that brat.
Oh, right. Mom, will you go and watch the trial?
Why would I go there to see those horrid people?
No, I won't go.
I wonder if Yeong I won't go either.
How come she hasn't called us until now?
The more I think about her, the more upset I get, Mother.
She's unbelievably heartless.
Nonsense.
Even if she's heartless,
she couldn't be as heartless as you, who kicked your daughter-in-law out.
Grandma! Mom and Dad! Come out for a second.
What? Wasn't it Do Sik's voice?
Then who's the one that's crying?
I think Yeong I is back.
- What? Oh, my. - What?
- Mom, let's go out. - Okay.
My dear youngest grandchild, why are you crying?
- What's wrong? - Good grief.
Why did you make your little sister cry?
You're old enough to stop fighting with her.
It's not like that.
There was a mole in our family, Mom.
Do Young has been seeing Yeong I secretly.
She didn't tell us anything when she knew how Yeong I was doing.
She's been going to Yeong I's place all along.
What? Yeong I's place?
Are you saying that Yeong I got a place to live?
Yes. She got a rooftop room to live with Mi Ri Nae.
How dare she? She even got a place to live?
Lead the way right now. Okay?
I want to see the place where they live now.
But...
That's not important, Mom.
Mi Ri Nae is in the hospital now.
What?
What? She's in the hospital?
My goodness. What is the problem?
- Grandma, Mom, and Dad. - Yes.
Mi Ri Nae...
Our dear Mi Ri Nae...
Come on, you brat. Tell us already. What is going on with Mi Ri Nae?
She has leukemia.
- Goodness gracious. - Mom.
My gosh. What nonsense are you blabbering?
I mean, why would Mi Ri Nae have that kind of illness?
She just has a cold.
There's no way she has leukemia.
The test results came out today.
Eun Ho went to the hospital to check the results.
What? Eun Ho? Are you saying that his family knows about this?
- Mother, can you believe this? - Oh, dear.
I'm shocked to know that Mi Ri Nae is sick.
On top of that, everyone else knew while we didn't.
Why were we kept in the dark about all this?
Calm down, Eun Sook.
Do Young, you know which hospital Mi Ri Nae is in, right?
I'll go to see Mi Ri Nae.
I'll go with you. Hey, Do Sik.
Take these for me.
And tidy up the restaurant, okay?
No. I won't eat it. It's not good.
You never complained about food.
You should eat this and get well to go home.
Here. Open your mouth.
Mi Ri Nae, will you keep being stubborn like this?
Mi Ri Nae.
Are you okay?
Mom, are you crying?
I'm sorry.
Is it because I didn't eat?
Stop crying. I'll eat it, okay?
Hi, Mi Ri Nae.
Mr. Kyung Jun!
Why did you come back?
Hae Mi told me about her condition.
I had to come see you two.
- I'm sorry. - Mom, I'll eat with him.
Really? Shall I feed you?
Mi Ri Nae, open your mouth. Here.
Okay.
Oh, no.
Mi Ri Nae, how about you try this?
My, it looks so delicious. Here you go.
Open.
Good girl.
It's good because you're feeding me.
I knew it. Right?
Yeong I, how could you?
Did you keep Mi Ri Nae's illness a secret from us...
because you wanted to be with Kyung Jun?
How could you do this to us?
It's not like that, Mother.
(The Love in Your Eyes)
Are you saying...
that we might lose Mi Ri Nae if we can't find a donor?
After all those who have sinned get punished,
the remaining people should become happy.
Why don't you get back together with him?
Mi Ri Nae, when you become healthy again,
I promise I'll go see you.
So get well no matter what.
I heard that she needs a bone marrow transplant.
So I'm going to have the test done too.
