(Episode 93)
Someone...
came by recently and asked questions about Dr. Kim.
He didn't say. It was a young man.
A young man?
Who could it be?
Did you and Kyung Jun enjoy your lunch?
The two of you act as though I'm invisible these days.
We never treated you like that, Ms. Kim.
That's how I feel.
If I take those pills again,
what would you do?
I guess you're not even scared.
Hae Mi, how could you say something like that so easily?
I trust that you won't do it again.
Your life is more important than anything else. Treat it as such.
Wait.
That necklace...
Oh, this is...
This... What is this ring?
Did Kyung Jun give you this?
Yes, that's right.
Give me back my ring...
So you will marry him?
Do you think I'll leave you alone after you marry him?
There are more things you want to do to harass me?
What if I marry Jang Se Jun...
and move into that house? Then what would you do?
What if I make you suffer for the rest of your life?
If you become my sister-in-law,
I should say what I need to say...
and teach you a thing or two as your elder sister-in-law.
You're incredibly rude.
What?
Oh, before that,
have you even asked how Director Jang would feel about it?
I'm really curious what he'll say...
once he finds out what your hidden agenda is.
What?
My ring...
(US Immigration Investor Program)
So I've looked into it.
If he applies under the skilled worker program as a woodworker,
there's a lot to prepare including an English interview.
If you want to help this person,
how about the Immigration Investor Program for the US?
If the application can be approved quickly,
it doesn't have to be the US.
Then I should do more research.
Anyway, who is this person?
He used to work for the family.
Mr. Sim, the driver. Do you remember him?
He used to be Mr. Jang's driver, right?
Yes.
Why are you helping him?
Did he ask you to help him move abroad?
Right now, it's hard to explain.
But I also...
have a reason to send him abroad.
Just think that I'm taking precautionary measures.
Oh, right.
Don't tell Grandpa.
Okay.
But you said "precautionary measures."
It sounds like he could be a threat to you down the road. Is that right?
Not to me.
But to my family, yes.
Kyung Jun.
Soo Wan.
You know...
how much I want to protect my family.
I sure do.
Ms. Cha did that to your eyes when you were little,
and you're keeping your lips sealed to protect the family.
Yes, it's just like that.
So for now, don't ask more questions.
Just look into it, please.
All right.
Right, I heard you received a letter from the donor's family.
Chairman Jang told me.
Yes, I'll drop off my letter at the hospital...
in the morning.
I want to keep in touch with them,
but they don't want to.
I want to say my last goodbye and thank them.
One moment.
Yes, Father.
Come to my office with Yeong I.
With Yeong I?
Okay, sure.
Hi.
Sit down.
Where is Mother?
Oh, she had to step out for a meeting.
She said she'd go home early today.
She's been overworked since Se Jun left.
She's been struggling with her headaches.
The company wants to reward you. You heard, right?
Have you thought about it?
I truly appreciate the offer,
but I didn't do it on my own.
So if I'm the only one getting the reward, I don't want that.
Then if you have another idea,
please tell us.
How about we make a donation...
to the Organ Donation Center in the team's name?
This might sound like a brazen suggestion,
but if we donate a percentage of our profits...
on a regular basis,
it'll be good for marketing and the company's image too.
Donation?
It's good to give back to society.
But why the Organ Donation Center?
Did Kyung Jun tell you his story?
Yes.
I know that he received a cornea transplant.
If the company makes donations to help support the cause,
it will be very meaningful.
I didn't know you were this thoughtful.
I didn't say anything, Father. This was all her idea.
If we're done, can we get back to the office?
Sure.
Oh, right. Yeong I.
Yes, sir.
What is your daughter's name?
Her name is Mi Ri Nae, Father.
I see, Mi Ri Nae.
That's a pure Korean word. Doesn't it mean the Milky Way?
Yes, that's right.
Visit us with Mi Ri Nae.
I have a granddaughter now.
It'd be nice to spend some time and get acquainted in advance.
Sir, are you sure?
Of course, I don't lie.
Kyung Jun, I want to meet her too.
Sure thing, Father.
You work as a server and dishwasher at your grandma's restaurant.
What are you doing here?
If I don't come here and help you out, who will?
I'm your husband...
I mean, not yet.
I did an Internet search for hours and learned that cherry tomatoes...
were good for morning sickness, so I picked some up for you.
How is it? Does it taste good?
So far, yes.
Hey, Eun Jin.
We talked about coming up with nicknames for our twins.
You haven't given it more thought, right?
I thought about it. Hear me out.
You had no idea you'd end up interning at the restaurant...
and suddenly become a father.
This is all too sudden for you too. You must be stressed out.
I'm all right.
You have more stressful days ahead of you.
Anyway,
the first time we slept together...
It happened at night, you know?
- Hey, everyone sleeps at night. - Okay.
Relax. It's not good for the babies.
In any case...
How about Star and Moon?
That's too common. Any cool names?
Cool names? Something cool...
Oh, yes.
Hold on.
Hoppy and Binky.
You think that's cool?
Why? It is the Year of the Rabbit.
Rabbits hop and binky. Hoppy and Binky.
A boy and a girl.
You know you're being greedy, right?
I'm sorry.
I'm just so excited these days.
Just give birth to healthy babies, Hoppy and Binky's mom.
You sound so natural when you call me like that.
Hey, twin mom.
I have a favor to ask.
Will you do it for me?
What is it?
You'd better not ask me to marry you.
Well...
Can I...
touch our babies? Just once.
I'll just gently place my hand over your belly.
All right, sure.
You probably can't feel anything yet.
I can.
I can feel them.
This is such a touching moment.
Hey, are you crying?
Well...
I'm just so grateful...
that our twins chose this incompetent father.
I need to figure out my life soon.
I'll stand on my own two feet...
so that I can get a nice, cozy house,
where our twins can freely run around and play.
I must.
My gosh.
Where did he put the money we were going to give to Won Sub?
You're home early.
What are you looking for?
None of your business.
I already told Grandpa earlier today.
I'm planning to move abroad.
You? Why?
Don't tell me you told your grandpa everything.
Otherwise, why would you get kicked out?
I'm not getting kicked out.
I'm running away, like a coward.
Because...
I'm just too ashamed to face the family.
Did your grandpa tell you to go ahead and move abroad?
I don't even need to ask. That cranky old man.
"Sure. Do whatever you want." I bet he said that.
He was always like that.
He's always favored Kyung Jun.
I bet he's planning to use this...
to push you out of the management team!
Enough!
Do you really not know that Grandpa is not like that?
And even if that's what he is thinking,
do you have the right to say such a thing?
How far will you go?
How will you pay for everything you've done?
What did I even do?
I didn't know I was pregnant when I married your dad. Is that a crime?
In a way, I'm a victim too.
I'm the one who's been...
feeling anxious and cornered all these years because of Sim Won Sub!
Don't blame everything on him.
You used your weaknesses...
against each other...
and pushed each other...
to the edge of a cliff.
The two of you brought this upon yourselves.
What are you talking about?
You're saying these things to me because you're not...
your father's biological son?
You two know the answer better than anybody else does.
Anyway, I'm running away. Don't try to change my mind.
No.
I'm overreacting.
I mean, Se Jun is his son.
Won Sub couldn't have told him.
There's no way Se Jun knows what really happened that day.
You're home early.
Is it early? I left right on the dot.
You rarely leave work on the dot.
So this is early for you.
Your mother came by earlier in the day.
She even brought beef bone soup.
She told me to heat it up and give it to you when you get home.
I get that she really cares for you,
but how could she blame everything on me?
When she saw the food I ordered from a restaurant,
she said you had been stressed out because of me.
She kept picking on me for no reason...
Hi, Mr. Choi. What's up?
Hello, Mr. Kim.
The new branch manager said...
your mother was at the bank earlier in the day.
He said she told him not to tell anyone about it.
But I thought you should know. That's why I'm calling.
How have you been?
I've been well. Don't worry about me.
Thanks for letting me know.
I'll be in touch.
Was that the bank?
I have to step out.
Where are you going at this hour?
Chang Yi!
Is it something serious?
Mother doesn't want to have dinner.
She's been...
looking upset since she got home from the bank.
Did something happen with Chang Yi?
You should ask her.
She didn't even go to the restaurant.
She's been in bed all day.
Hold on.
Maybe Chang Yi told her that he wanted to cut all ties with us.
No way.
Uncle Chang Yi.
Great-uncle Chang Yi!
Hi, Mi Ri Nae.
How have you been?
Why didn't you visit us sooner? I missed you.
Chang Yi.
Good to see you.
Did you come straight here from work?
Hi, Chang Yi. Good to see you.
Hi.
Where is Mother?
She's been in bed all day.
I heard she went to the bank to see you earlier in the day.
Did you two get into an argument or something?
Go on in.
Mother.
I heard you were at the bank earlier.
Why didn't you tell me?
You must've been so surprised when you heard I resigned,
yet you came home all by yourself.
Of course, I know how to get home.
My sweetheart.
Chang Yi.
So that wasn't a dream, then.
My smart, competent son...
left his job.
I had no choice because I was in charge.
I'm sorry, Mother.
I understand that you were in a bind.
But you see,
Chang Yi.
You've been successful all your life.
So I worry that you might not know how to cope with failure.
That's why, when I heard that you resigned,
I panicked.
I always complimented and applauded you.
But a day like this was bound to come.
It just never occurred to me.
You had probably never thought of it either.
So I thought to myself, "Gosh, I didn't teach him right."
I regretted it on my way home.
Once you reach the top,
you must descend, you know?
It happened unexpectedly,
so I didn't know how to tell you.
I haven't told Hwa Kyung either.
I need to think about how to bring it up to her.
Don't be upset.
I'll pull myself together.
Good. That promise you make to yourself...
will pull you out of the rut.
Thank you. I mean it.
I'm totally fine. Don't worry about me at all.
Just think about yourself.
Pull yourself together and get out of this slump.
Mother.
Those jerks!
My son did nothing wrong!
My goodness. You always woke up in the wee hours to go to work.
And you always worked late...
until the bank closed for the night.
How could they kick you out when you did nothing but work hard?
I'm sorry, Mother.
My dear son...
Honey, so Chang Yi has been fired from the bank?
Yes, I think so.
No way. Then what's going to happen to Uncle Chang Yi now?
Goodness. He's unemployed now!
Honey, be quiet.
Hello, Nurse Jung.
Who is he?
Oh, he's my boyfriend.
Hello.
I'm Jang Kyung Jun.
I see.
It's been so long.
Let's sit down.
Okay.
I was a little scared to come alone,
so I brought him along.
I'm happy to know that you're in a relationship with a wonderful man.
Nurse Jung.
I'd love to catch up with you,
but I'm anxious to hear about that person.
Of course, I understand.
So that person didn't tell you his name, right?
That's right.
He never told me who he was.
I'd say he's either in his late 20s or in his early 30s.
He was quite tall.
He seemed highly educated.
Judging by his clothes and looks, he seemed to be quite well-off.
Do you know who it could be?
From late 20s to early 30s? And a man?
A man who's around that age and knows about that incident.
Can you think of anyone?
I can't really think of anyone at the moment.
Other than the family,
no one would be curious about that incident.
I might be jumping to conclusions here,
but he seemed to know more about the incident than I do.
Why do you say that?
He certainly seemed to know about the situation.
On top of that, I feel like he wanted to find out something new.
It seemed as though he was investigating the case.
As if he was putting the pieces of the puzzle together.
Thank you for coming all the way to tell me this.
I really appreciate it.
Don't mention it.
I'm still so grateful to Dr. Kim for his help.
How's your daughter?
She wasn't even born yet,
but Dr. Kim talked about her all the time.
I still remember that.
He was such a warmhearted person.
Before he passed on,
he donated his corneas to someone who couldn't see.
Sorry?
His corneas?
Yes, that's what my husband wanted to do.
Really?
Your husband donated his corneas?
Yes, I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
When I made the decision to do it,
my mother-in-law was strongly against it.
But I remained stubborn because I wanted to follow his wishes.
So in a way,
it's a painful memory for the family.
That's why I couldn't tell you right away.
Hey, Yeong I. Are you getting home from work just now?
Yes.
Mr. Jang didn't come with you today?
He did, but we parted ways over there.
It was getting late, so I told him to go home.
Where are you going?
I have a lot on my mind, so I'm going for a walk.
Because of Eun Jin?
Well, not really.
Anyway, it's cold. Go inside and get some rest.
- Eun Ho. - Yes?
Has any of Do Jin's friends...
suddenly become interested in his accident?
Why do you ask?
The nurse who used to work with Do Jin...
at the public health center got in touch with me,
so I saw her just now.
She said...
someone came to see her recently to ask about that day.
I just think it's so odd.
If any of our friends suddenly became curious,
they would've called me first.
Who could it be?
It keeps bothering me.
She said it was a man.
In his late 20s or early 30s.
But no one around me would be curious about Do Jin's accident.
Honey, I never even imagined something like this could happen.
Chang Yi is so smart and competent. He got fired?
I thought he'd totally become the president of the bank.
My goodness. How did this happen?
I think it happened out of the blue.
Hwa Kyung doesn't seem to know about it yet.
He is such a proud man.
You know him. He'd never go to Hwa Kyung...
and say, "I got fired." My goodness.
If Hwa Kyung finds out,
she'll cry her eyes out...
and panic about making ends meet.
But then again, Chang Yi has had a bunch of side projects too.
He has his personal clients.
He has been giving lectures and even wrote a book.
If they've been smart about saving money,
they'll be totally fine for a few years.
You seem excited to hear that my brother is unemployed now.
I'm not excited. I'm saying these things because I'm worried.
Until Chang Yi tells Hwa Kyung himself,
don't call her...
and try to feel her out.
Let him tell her himself.
But she's his wife. She should know...
He must have a lot on his mind now.
Let's just pretend to know nothing about it.
Okay.
He looked gaunt.
My goodness.
Rich people can survive for three years even if they go bankrupt.
It's not about money!
All his life, he did nothing but work.
He must feel so lost.
My goodness.
Before he passed on,
he donated his corneas to someone who couldn't see.
Sorry?
His corneas?
Yes, that's what my husband wanted to do.
Really?
Your husband donated his corneas?
Yes, I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
In the same year,
Yeong I's husband donated his corneas,
and I received someone's corneas.
No way.
Such a coincidence...
can actually happen?
(Work Log, Lee Young Yi)
Why hadn't I thought of that?
(Work Log)
It is...
the same handwriting!
Yes, hello?
This is the Organ Donation Center.
You said you'd pick up the recipient's letter today.
I'm just calling to confirm.
Yes, I'll get there on time.
I'm leaving now.
(The Love in Your Eyes)
What? You two will move in together?
It's better than getting a divorce.
It'd be wiser to try living with him before I decide.
Kyung Jun was the one who received Do Jin's corneas?
That's an absurd coincidence.
You're our family too,
so I wanted to tell you.
I plan to tell the elders today.
It's you.
It went to you.
