EPISODE 7
[patient 1] Your son-in-law is so sweet
like a daughter.
[patient 2 giggles]
[patient 1]
He's so well-mannered and handsome.
I'm so jealous.
-Thank you.
-My daughter
isn't even thinking about getting married.
[patient 1, Seon-u chuckle]
I know, right?
I wish he were my son-in-law. [chuckles]
He's actually my daughter's friend.
He's such a great kid
that I wouldn't dare ask him
to take my immature daughter.
I'd feel too bad.
-[Myeong-sun] Hmm.
-[chuckles]
-[Seon-u clears throat]
-By the way,
is Da-rim still at work?
I'll call her and ask.
-Just a second.
-Okay.
-[Seon-u sighs]
-That feels so good.
-[phone beeps]
-[line ringing]
[automated voice]
The caller you are trying to reach
is unavailable.
-Please try again later.
-[clicks tongue]
-[phone beeps]
-[sighs]
What's she up to?

KANGKUK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
[sighs]
[Da-rim grunting]
[breathes heavily]
Are you awake?
Are we at a hospital?
Yes.
You had stress-induced stomach cramps.
How do you feel now?
I feel so much better.
[exhales sharply]
That's a relief.
It looks like I stole your time again.
I'm sorry.
The IV drip is almost done,
so I can go home, right?
[stammers]
[clears throat] Wait.
-Excuse me.
-Hold on.
You can't go home today.
I'm going to head out.
I guess Da-rim is busy today.
[sighs] I guess so.
All right. Get home safe.
And make sure Jun eats well.
-Don't worry about that. [chuckles]
-All right. [chuckles]
-I'll see you soon.
-All right.
-I'm off.
-Bye.
-See you. Mmm.
-[Seon-u] See you soon.
I told you I'm really fine.
-I'm just going to go.
-[Ji-hyeok] Just do as I say.
The doctor said
you should stay here overnight.
Do you even know
how much a night in here will cost?
Why can't I stay in a shared room?
What can we do?
This is the only room available.
Since you fell sick on the clock,
I'll cover the hospital bills,
so don't worry about that.
Don't even try to
lift your head off that pillow.
I'll consider it insubordination
and dock your performance score heavily.
Okay, fine.
-[Ji-hyeok grunts]
-Water.
I just want some water.
All right. Hold on.
Just tell me. I'll do everything.
I'm sorry.
[sighs]
[pouring water]
[Ji-hyeok sighing]
Thank you.
[bed motor whirring]
Wow, that's so cool. [gasps]
[whirring stops]
[romantic music playing]
[heartbeat thumping]
-[door opens]
-[nurse] Ms. Go Da-rim?
-I'm here to check your blood pressure.
-Sure.
-[Velcro rips]
-[chuckles]
-[device whirs]
-[air hisses]
Oh, that's strange.
Why is it so high?
[gasps]
Did the ER mention
any blood pressure issues?
No, I don't believe so.
[nurse] By any chance,
do you feel short of breath
or hot in the face?
[stammers] No, I feel very fine.
[nurse] Could it be the machine?
Yes, I think so.
-Just a moment.
-Sure.
-I'll get the manual monitor and recheck.
-Okay.
[door opens]
-I'm…
-[stammers] Yes?
I'm going to go buy some drinks.
Okay, then I'll stay right here.
Okay.
[door opens]
Seriously?
[squeals]
[line ringing]
[funky music playing]
[sighs]
[sizzling sound effect]
That feels better.
[sighs]
[light switches click]
[stammers] Mom…
Don't be sick.
I'll do better.
[melancholy music playing]
[breathing heavily]
[music continues]
[breathes heavily]
You didn't go home…
and stayed by my side?
[airplane approaches]
[announcer speaking indistinctly]
[funky music playing]
Hello, sir.
[exclaims]
You must've waited long.
Sorry, my flight was delayed.
You must be tired.
Let me take your suitcase.
No, it's light. Let's just go.
But still, I should…
[chuckles] It's okay, I can take it.
-Let's go.
-[assistant] All right.
Sir, here you go.
Please take me there.
A dog shelter?
[stammers] It's in
the opposite direction from your house.
I know. I want to meet a friend first.
Your mother is preparing a meal.
Wouldn't it be best to go straight home?
It's fine. Let's stop by there first.
[chuckles]
The truth is,
she specifically told me
that even if you ask to stop by somewhere,
I should ignore it
and bring you straight home.
-[chuckles] I see.
-[chuckles]
All right, then.
-Let's go home.
-Yes, sir.
Oh, no.
I only have US dollars on me.
I'll leave you to exchange it.
[stammers] What's this, sir?
What else could it be?
It's your severance pay.
-Pardon?
-Oh.
You don't need to come in
starting tomorrow.
Uh, I don't understand.
[chuckles] You're just not getting it,
are you?
I really hate repeating things.
Get lost.
Take care.
Mother.
Oh, Tae-yeong!
Come here and sit.
These are the options
for our party invitations.
Take a look
and choose your favorite design.
[exclaims] This just shows
how much you love me.
You prepared
such a wide selection of invitations.
-[chuckles]
-This is what I narrowed down.
He's a busy man.
He's not here for a vacation.
Don't drag him around for show.
I'm gathering the most prominent families
in the business and political circles
to see if any of their daughters
would be suitable for him.
Come on, his divorce was just finalized.
It's been 374 days.
Is Ha-yeong not home?
How could she not show her face
when her brother has come all this way?
Who knows?
So, how's the funding business going?
We've been focusing
on venture capital for a while,
but now that the size
of our operation funds has grown,
we're considering shifting our focus
to mid-sized or listed companies.
Looking to swallow up
bigger companies, huh?
That won't be easy.
Securing management rights
and restructuring
-will be met with a lot of resistance.
-[Tae-yeong] That's true.
But there's more to eat with a bigger fish
as long as you debone it properly.
[Ha-yeong] Ta-da! Ta-da! Ta-da!
[stammers]
Aren't you here today
for a meeting about the exhibition?
[Ha-yeong] I am,
but do you really think I came
all the way here just for a meeting?
I made all this.
You'll like me even more
once you've tasted it.
Listen, Ms. Yu, I--
Okay, I get it, but just try it first.
How is it?
Sure, it's…
It's good.
Right? You like me.
No, that's not what I meant.
How can a young, capable,
and pretty daughter of a rich family
also be a good cook?
You not falling for me
is a serious problem in itself.
You need to see a doctor.
Anyway, I thought about it.
What if the works in the exhibition
reflect more
of the children's daily lives?
[sighs]
Ordinary daily life
meets the great outdoors?
[gasps] That sounds nice.
It reminds you
that protecting the environment
isn't some grand undertaking
but a part of everyday life. Hmm.
Then how about we hire
more relatable models?
Could you elaborate?
Instead of using professional models,
you could capture a real family.
-A real family…
-[office bell rings]
-It's the pretty lady!
-[exclaims]
Jun!
I thought you were
going to the playground.
-I hurt myself.
-[Ha-yeong, Seon-u gasp]
You're all scratched up.
Stay here. I'll go get some ointment.
[Ha-yeong exclaims]
Jun, did you miss me? I missed you.
I missed you.
Right? I knew it. Come here.
Try some. I made it.
[Ha-yeong exclaims]
It's so tasty!
Don't you like me even more now?
[Jun] I do. A lot more.
[Ha-yeong]
You're so much better than your dad.
-[Ha-yeong] Is it good?
-[Jun] Yes.
[Ha-yeong] All right. Open up.
Look at you eat.
You eat so well. Good boy.
[sighs]
NATURAL BEBE
A GREEN FUTURE WE DREW TOGETHER
[Chang-ho] We'd like to sincerely welcome
all the newlywed couples joining us
for Natural BeBe's campaign,
A Green Future We Drew Together.
-[crowd cheering]
-[Chang-ho chuckles]
[both cheering]
Twenty years ago,
Natural BeBe built this family park
and planted a lot of trees
as part of our CSR initiative.
The saplings we planted back then
have grown to be trees
that are taller than my children
to create this green forest.
The trees we plant today
will grow big and strong
alongside our children
-to provide fresh air…
-[sighs] The day has finally come.
-…for them to breathe.
-I can't believe we really did it.
-We, Natural BeBe…
-I feel so overwhelmed.
-Da-rim, me too.
-…will always be with you and do our best…
-Me too.
-…to make that happen.
-Thank you.
-[Da-rim, Gyeong-min exclaim]
-Are you okay? Oh dear.
-Kang Dae-seong!
I told you not to fool around
at Mommy's workplace.
You need to stay right by my side. [sighs]
Sorry, my husband
is at his weekend part-time job,
so I had no one to watch my youngest.
[chuckles] I'm glad you brought him.
Dae-seong. You can play all you want,
but do so where we can see you,
-okay?
-Okay.
-Excellent. One more!
-[Nan-suk chuckles]
-You're so cute.
-[in English] Yes!
-[in Korean] You're just too cute.
-So cute!
[Nan-suk] Thank you. [chuckles]
Now, we'll proceed
with the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
[crowd applauding]
NATURAL BEBE FAMILY PARK
[Da-rim] Here you go.
-You can pick whatever you like.
-Thank you.
[Nan-suk] Please head over there.
-Can we take this?
-Yes, of course.
You can take this
and grab a sapling from over there.
Thank you.
[Ji-hyeok chuckles]
-Ms. Lee.
-[Go-eun grunts]
SAPLING BAG
My, you're all working so hard.
-Hey!
-[Jin-hui] Oh my.
[chuckles]
[Chang-ho]
The TF team is doing an excellent job.
I look forward
to seeing more from you all.
We'll do our very best
to meet your expectations, sir.
[Jin-hui] We solemnly vow to loyally…
-[chuckles]
-…put our hearts and souls into it.
-I vow too.
-I do as well.
-That's right.
-[Chang-ho chuckles]
I know it's hard work,
but please keep it up.
Gosh, it's not hard at all.
If it's for the company,
we can do more than plant trees.
We can even move that mountain.
-We got this!
-[colleagues] We got this!
[chortles]
[comedic music playing]
All right, keep up the good work.
You got this! [laughs]
-Yes, sir. Thank you, sir!
-[colleagues] Thank you, sir!
[exhales sharply]
[Ji-hyeok mumbling]
What about the manual?
-Why are you following us?
-Pardon?
Uh, I need to get back.
-Where?
-Am I planting trees too?
Do I look like I care
about trees right now?
Hmm?
[mouthing words]
[screams]
[sighing]
-[Gyeong-min] I can carry that for you.
-No, I'm fine.
It's fine. Let me.
Look at that. They're all doing so well.
I really don't mind.
-Let's see.
-Carrying things is my forte.
Yours will be named "Dae-seong Tree."
-Right? It's named after you!
-Yeah, that's right.
[Nan-suk] Once you plant this tree,
it'll grow as big as…
[comedic music playing]
-[phone camera shutter clicking]
-Thank you.
[Ji-hyeok] One, two.
-[hiker] A bit ahead.
-[Nan-suk exhales]
-[Ji-hyeok grunts]
-Oh my. Thank you, Mr. Gong.
[Nan-suk grunts]
[music continues]
[phone camera shutter clicking]
[whispers] Damn it.
[Ji-hyeok pants]
[straining]
Go on. Put it in.
Oh, right. Yes.
[Da-rim mumbles]
-[Ji-hyeok] Huh?
-Dae-seong, are you throwing this away?
No. I heard if you plant it in the ground,
it'll grow big and strong.
-[chuckles]
-[Ji-hyeok] I see.
You want this robot to grow big
so you can ride it around, huh?
-[Ji-hyeok chuckles]
-[Da-rim sighs]
I got bad news for you, Dae-seong.
I've already claimed this spot
because I also want to grow taller.
We should ask the doctor
to modify it and make it bigger.
What do you think?
Hmm…
-Okay!
-All right. Good.
Bye, robot.
[gasps] What are you doing?
You said you wanted to grow taller.
I was just planting you.
[chuckles]
I won't be the only one to grow.
You should grow too.
-Give me your feet.
-I'm all grown up.
I'm perfectly happy
with my height right now.
Come on now. The taller, the better.
What are you doing?
-[Da-rim chuckles]
-Stop it.
-Let's go for two meters, Mr. Gong!
-[Ji-hyeok chuckles]
Would you like me to plant you
so you can grow nice and tall?
No, thanks.
Okay.
[snoring]
[grunts]
Where did they go?
Darn it.
[sighs]
[scoffs]
[grunts]
[sighs] This is so exhausting.
[Ji-hye] Do you like that?
Does that feel good?
Oh, look at you.
You love it, don't you?
-[dogs pant, whimper]
-[chuckles]
-[Tae-yeong] Ji-hye.
-[exhales sharply]
[dogs barking in distance]
[chuckles]
[tense music playing]
[Tae-yeong] You still haven't quit?
I thought you did.
I did.
But someone made me start again.
-I'm to blame?
-[Ji-hye sighs]
How did I end up
at your wedding reception?
Last Christmas…
we were staying in a suite
at this very hotel.
Your father is to blame for that.
He probably ordered you to attend today.
And you're a sweet daughter
who listens to her father's every word.
[sighs]
It's a compliment.
[chuckles] I've always
liked that about you.
You work so hard to be
an obedient daughter.
And you know your place.
Being his dead lover's secret child…
[grunts]
…doesn't seem to hinder you one bit.
So that was it?
That's why you kept our relationship
a secret the whole time.
Why?
Were you worried
I might hinder your future?
[laughing]
I'm sorry.
I'm too ambitious to risk
being weighed down by you.
But don't worry.
-Your secret is safe with me.
-[scoffs]
We might not become family,
but I hope we can still be friends
who cheer each other on.
[dogs barking]
I thought you were in the US.
I'm here for a short business trip.
And to see you.
[Tae-yeong sighs]
I'm sure you heard about my divorce.
I missed you.
What do you want?
-[sighs]
-I came to treat you to a meal.
I hear you're a director now.
I'm so proud of you.
There's no need to be.
It's all thanks to you.
I learned the hard way
that the only way to stop people
from looking down on me
as the illegitimate child
was to prove my worth
through my abilities.
Do you know why I left you?
You had
an uncanny resemblance to them.
Your eyes, to be precise.
On the surface,
you acted like you weren't,
but you were always anxious
and craved affection.
But I see you've changed a lot
since I last saw you.
I can now see
greed in your eyes.
-[chuckles]
-Now that you know, you can leave.
I have no interest in mind games anymore.
[Tae-yeong chuckles]
GO YEONG-SIK
APRIL 27, 2025
[sighs]
[Da-rim whispers] There we go.
[Ji-hyeok] Hmm?
"Go Yeong-sik"?
It's my late father's name.
"Yeong" as in "outstanding,"
and "sik" as in "to plant."
The perfect name for a tree, right?
[inhales sharply]
I hope you grow strong like my father.
[Da-rim] Hmm.
[Gyeong-min] All right,
let's head back down now!
Thank you for your hard work!
-Could you take a picture of me? Thanks.
-All right.
I guess that's a wrap. Shall we head down?
-Shall we?
-Yes.
-That came out nice. [chuckles]
-Yeah? Thank you very much.
Do you two want one too?
-[Gyeong-min grunts]
-Mr. Gong, we should take a group photo.
Wait. Where did Ms. Bae go?
Nan-suk? She was here just a minute ago.
[pants] Da-rim,
have you seen Dae-seong anywhere?
Didn't you two head down together?
I haven't seen him in a while.
[pants] He just disappeared
all of a sudden.
Where in the world did he go?
He was just with you.
Let's split up and look for him.
[Da-rim, colleagues] Okay.
Dae-seong!
-[Go-eun] Dae-seong!
-[Gyeong-min] Dae-seong!
-I'll go this way.
-[pants]
-Dae-seong!
-Dae-seong!
-Dae-seong!
-Dae-seong!
-Dae-seong!
-Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
-[Go-eun pants]
-Kang Dae-seong!
-Where did he go? [sobs]
-Wait for me, Nan-suk.
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong! Dae-seong…
DO NOT ENTER
Dae-seong.
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae-seong!
Dae…
Dae-seong!
Kang Dae-seong!
[panting]
[grunts]
[Da-rim thuds]
[dramatic music playing]
-[Dae-seong] Ow!
-[grunts] A squirrel? Seriously?
Who said you could chase after a squirrel?
-[phone ringing]
-I told you to stay close to Mommy!
Do you know how much trouble
you caused everyone here?
I can't believe you!
-[Jin-hui] Nan-suk, that's enough.
-My goodness.
He was scared too.
-We found him. That's what matters.
-I can't believe you.
-Don't worry. It's okay, Dae-seong.
-Why are you crying?
TEAM MEMBER GO DA-RIM
Mr. Kang, where's Da-rim and Mr. Gong?
I got in touch with Mr. Gong,
but Ms. Go isn't answering.
It's okay. Your mom was just scared.
-She was just scared. It's okay.
-[rain patters]
It's raining.
[Jin-hui, Nan-suk exclaim]
-Oh no.
-Are you serious?
-Oh no. Nan-suk, it's raining.
-Oh no.
-We should head down with Dae-seong first.
-Oh, gosh.
DO NOT ENTER
NATURAL BEBE FAMILY PARK
[phone buzzing]
[Ji-hyeok] Hey, I'm on my way.
[tense music playing]
-[thunder rumbles]
-What?
[thunderclap]
Da-rim!
Da-rim!
Da-rim!
Da-rim!
Da-rim!
Da-rim!
[dramatic music playing]
Da-rim.
[panting]
Da-rim.
Da-rim.
Da-rim.
-[Da-rim groaning]
-Hold on.
-Mr. Gong?
-Are you okay?
Yes.
[Ji-hyeok breathing shakily]
What about Dae-seong? Did they find him?
He's with Ms. Bae right now.
-Thank goodness. [exhales sharply]
-[thunder rumbling]
Let's go in there for now.
[Da-rim groans]
[phone buzzing]
NATURAL BEBE ASSISTANT MANAGER
Hello, Mr. Kang. How did the event--
What?
Okay, I'll be on my way.
What's wrong?
Da-rim disappeared in the mountains.
-[phone beeps]
-Can you watch Jun for a bit?
All right. You should hurry.
Thank you so much.
Drive safely. Don't rush.
[Ji-hyeok] Hey, I found her.
You did?
That's a relief.
-Are you on your way down?
-[Ji-hyeok] No.
We're at the bottom of a slope.
We can't really climb up right now.
-We managed to find a cave nearby.
-A cave?
-[distorted] It's located…
-Ji-hyeok, you're breaking up.
Can you repeat…
-Hello? Hel--
-[line beeps]
Mr. Kang, what did he say?
The call dropped.
[line ringing]
Hmm.
[phone beeping]
OUT OF SERVICE AREA
-[Da-rim sighs]
-[thunder rumbling]
[exhales sharply]
Uh…
They'll be heading over
as soon as the rain stops.
Okay.
Hold on.
Here.
Thank you.
[sniffs]
[Da-rim sighs]
[romantic classical music playing]
[Da-rim] You know,
you're just like my dad in some ways.
What do you mean?
My dad
used to be a taxi driver.
Whenever I found myself in trouble,
he appeared out of nowhere.
On rainy days,
he'd just suddenly pop out of nowhere
with an umbrella.
If I ever got hurt,
I'd suddenly find myself on his back
as he ran to get me help.
It was as if we had telepathy
or something.
And you're like that too.
Even now, you're by my side.
It's really amazing.
-You're being looked out for.
-Sorry?
As your father,
he must've been looking out for you.
And despite the distance,
the worry remains.
[music continues]
Mmm.
I was so lost
after my dad passed away.
I didn't let it show in front of my mom…
but his absence felt so big to me.
Is that why you married young?
Because you wanted to
fill the void your dad left?
I'm not sure.
But I guess that's a possibility.
You could've taken it a little slower.
What was the rush? [scoffs]
Pardon?
[clicks tongue] It's nothing.
[Ji-hyeok sighs]
I wonder when this rain will stop.
[Gyeong-min]
When can we get back up there?
We'll see if we can in an hour.
-What happened?
-Hey, Mr. Kim.
Luckily, Mr. Gong found her.
They've taken shelter in a cave.
Once the rain stops, I'm going to head up
with the rescue team.
-[sighs]
-Entry's difficult right now.
[Gyeong-min]
We should be able to enter in an hour.
-Mr. Kim!
-Oh, no! Mr. Kim!
-[Gyeong-min] Mr. Kim!
-Oh, gosh.
-[Nan-suk sobs]
-Oh, no. What should we do?
[Gyeong-min] Mr. Kim!
-[Seon-u] Da-rim!
-[thunder rumbling]
Go Da-rim!
Da-rim!
Huh?
[romantic music playing]
You must be cold too.
I'm fine.
I'm sorry.
[Da-rim shivers]
Let's just stay like this
for a little while
and not think about anything.
[music continues]
[rain pattering]
[sighs, mumbles]
Yes!
[in English] Checkmate.
[groans]
Yes! Come on, baby!
-[groans]
-[Ha-yeong chuckles]
[in Korean]
Some challenges are best avoided.
I was a chess prodigy in Hannam-dong
when I was a kid.
[exclaims] How do you become one of those?
Do you want to know?
-Yes.
-It's simple.
Don't study. Just play chess.
I see.
[Ha-yeong giggles]
Let's play one more game.
No, we've already played too many.
You need to sleep now.
Playing with my dad is no fun
because he's so bad.
I'll play one more game
if you tell me something.
What is it?
What does your dad like? Besides you.
-Fried chicken, Americano, and--
-Hold on.
Fried chicken, Americano, and?
BLACKPINK.
Then what does he dislike?
Hmm. When people break promises.
Promises?
If I promise to brush my teeth
after eating snacks and I don't,
or if I promise to clean up my toys
and I don't,
he gets really mad.
Hmm. [sucks on teeth]
I see.
Breaking promises?
-[Seon-u] Go Da-rim!
-[thunder rumbling]
Where are you, Da-rim?
Da-rim!
Go Da-rim!
Can you hear me?
Where are you, Da-rim?
[wind blowing]
[Da-rim exhales sharply]
Mr. Gong.
I think I'm fine.
Are you okay?
[gasps] He's burning up.
Mr. Gong, are you okay?
Oh, no. This is all my fault.
You're so hot.
Are you okay?
You need to stay with me.
Are you okay? [gasps]
Can you hear me?
[sighs] I'm sorry. It's all my fault.
I'm…
not a good person.
Sorry?
I'm also…
swayed.
I think
you're a really great person.
[gasps]
You're nice to me
only because I'm a member of your team.
But still…
I find myself being swayed.
[dramatic music playing]
[wind blowing]
-[Seon-u] Da-rim!
-[Ji-hyeok sighs]
[Seon-u] Da-rim!
Da… [pants]
Da-rim?
Da-rim!
Da-rim! Are you okay?
Are you hurt?
Are you hurt anywhere?
No, I'm okay.
[Seon-u panting]
I'm fine, but Mr. Gong is…
[Ji-hyeok sighs]
[Seon-u pants]
-Let's go. Come on.
-Huh?
-Okay, let's go.
-[Seon-u] Easy, easy.
-Be careful.
-[Da-rim grunts]
-[Seon-u] Take my hand. [pants]
-Okay.
[dramatic classical music playing]
[water dripping]
What do you think you're doing?
[Gyeong-min] Ji-hyeok!
They're over here!
[music continues]
[sighs]
-[Seon-u] Let's go.
-[Da-rim] Okay.
Slowly. Watch your step.
Careful.
Slowly.
Slowly.
[Gyeong-min] Ji-hyeok!
Ji-hyeok!
Hey, Ji-hyeok!
They're over here!
Are you okay, Ms. Go?
Ji-hyeok!
Ji-hyeok!
Are you okay?
[exclaims] Do you know how worried I was?
-[bag zipper opens]
-Can I get a towel?
I can't believe this.
Can I get something to cover him up with?
[Seon-u] Here.
Mr. Kang picked it up.
He found it near where you fell.
[Da-rim] Right.
I should thank him.
[sighs]
-Da-rim.
-Yeah?
Why did Mr. Gong do that earlier?
Even with me there,
he refused to let go of your hand.
Maybe you should quit your job.
Where did that come from?
I'll take care of the hospital bills
and loan interest somehow.
I can ask for an advance
on the photography exhibition.
Why would you do that?
-What?
-Why would you go that far?
I appreciate the thought,
but I don't want to lose a friend
because I relied on them for money.
And you're fine with relying on Mr. Gong?
[melancholy music playing]
What?
Think about how he paid off your debt
and what he did today.
It looks to me like you and Mr. Gong
are more than just a team leader
and a team member.
I definitely think
he has feelings for you.
It's nothing like that.
He was delirious because he was sick.
That's why he acted like that.
That's why.
Yeah.
[Gyeong-min sighs]
We should stop by the ER.
Your face is so pale right now.
I took medicine for the fever.
-I'm fine.
-I know, but still.
I just want to go home.
I want to rest.
[music continues]
[sighs]
[journalist]
You're such a family man, Mr. Gong.
You even come to look after your wife.
[Chang-ho chuckles]
Please, I'm just doing what's right.
I wonder if this is even worth…
-[gasping]
-…writing an article about. [chuckles]
This is it.
Please come in.
[chuckles] Honey.
[tense music playing]
[sighs]
[door thuds]
Did she go out for a walk?
Go and look for her.
The reporter is waiting.
Yes, sir.
-[journalist, Chang-ho chuckle]
-[door opens]
-[sighs]
-[door closes]
-Does he have to take it today?
-He wants to release the photo of him
caring for his wife at the same time
as the new product launch.
[sighs] Geez, did she really have to hide
and make our lives harder?
[intense music playing]
-There she is. Over there.
-[bodyguard] What?
[grunts]
Go that way. Check the stairs.
I'm Chairman Gong's secretary.
His wife is missing from the VIP room.
-Did she come this way by any chance?
-[shudders]
[nurse] She was just in her room.
I'm not sure where she is.
[secretary] We need to find her right now.
Please make an announcement
and contact security.
[nurse] Okay.
[gasps] Oh, my gosh!
-I'm sorry.
-Seriously?
-Unbelievable.
-Ma'am, by any chance,
did a woman with crutches come in here?
-She did.
-Where is she?
Right there and there.
-Ah.
-I'm the only one here without crutches.
No, not those people.
I wouldn't know about the patients
in the other rooms.
I'm sorry.
My goodness.
-He scared me half to death.
-[door opens]
[door closes]
He's gone. You can come out now.
Thank you. [inhales sharply]
[sighing]
[In-ae breathing shakily]
Here. Drink this.
Why were you hiding from him?
Is he a loan shark?
I'm being nosy again.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
[melancholy music playing]
[stammers] It's fine.
You're okay now.
You're okay.
[footsteps approaching]
[sighs]
Da-rim, how are you feeling?
It's cold medicine.
Dae-seong put you through
so much yesterday.
I feel so terrible.
It's all right. I'm fine.
If I weren't, I wouldn't be at work.
You should've taken the day off.
No one would've said anything.
[sighs]
Take the medicine. You might have a cold.
But still, you shouldn't skip payday.
Our paychecks are in!
-[Nan-suk] Oh, my.
-Hurry up and check.
-Really?
-Hurry.
[Jin-hui] This is amazing. [sighs]
MS. GO DA-RIM'S SALARY ACCOUN
2,270,000 WON
[Go-eun] Da-rim, are you crying?
No, I'm not. Why would I be?
-[Da-rim sniffles]
-[Nan-suk] I'm tearing up.
I'm so touched.
[chuckles] I mean, it'll all be gone later
when I pay the overdue credit card bills
and loan payments,
but I'm going to take it all in now
while I still can.
[chuckles] You should.
I'm going to buy myself something.
I worked so hard this past month,
so I deserve a nice treat.
You mean multiple treats.
Just look at all those packages.
This time, I'm going to buy this.
Nan-suk, look.
Is that seriously
meant to cover your body?
Da-rim, look at this.
It'd look great on you. Buy it.
I can't.
I also have a lot of debt to pay off.
You have loans too, huh? [clicks tongue]
Then again, who doesn't?
[Nan-suk] They gave us so much. [chuckles]
-[sighs]
-[ATM whirs]
[sighs, sucks on teeth]
[sighs] It's the first payment, after all.
Just giving him the money
doesn't feel right.
[sucks on teeth]
[upbeat music playing]
[Da-rim grunts]
-[Gyeong-min] Do you need something?
-Oh, it's nothing.
Is Mr. Gong not in?
He took a sick day.
I think he has a bad cold.
[sighs] Oh, really?
Is he feeling better now?
He sounded pretty sick
when I called him earlier.
[sighs]
Why do you ask?
Do you need something approved by him?
No, I was just wondering.
[melancholy music playing]
[sighs]
So that's what happened.
Goodness me.
How did you manage to endure
all those years?
I didn't endure them.
I just gave up.
[gasps]
I was half out of my mind.
[Myeong-sun]
I know it's not my place to say this,
but you should've left with your son
and divorced your husband.
My parents…
were also relying on my husband.
And the thought of living on my own…
also scared me.
I thought…
if I just put up with it…
everyone
would be happy.
[Myeong-sun] "Happy"?
Do you think
your son was truly happy
watching you live like that?
Pardon?
They say that parents
are the whole world to their kids.
When a parent falls apart,
the child's whole world crumbles.
He must've been so scared.
We have to become braver
and happier
for our children's sake.
That's what I think.
[sighs]
[labored breathing]
[tense music playing]
[labored breathing continues]
[Chang-ho] Do you still resent me?
[footsteps approaching]
[Chang-ho] It's been over 20 years.
It's time for you to grow up already.
-Just because time has passed…
-[alcohol pouring]
…doesn't mean it undoes what you've done.
Are you blind to it all?
My mom has lost her will to live.
Your son doesn't believe in love.
Don't you see the family you've destroyed?
It was true love.
I was just being true to my feelings.
[shudders]
And people call that an affair.
You know what disgusts me even more?
Even after all that,
you hold your head high.
[laughing]
You're talking
as if you're quite different from me.
Then are you saying we're the same?
Are you? How are we the same?
Hey.
You want that woman. Don't you?
You're dying to have her.
You didn't even try to hide your feelings
in front of her husband.
And you think…
you have the right to criticize me?
You and I are the same.
Don't you see that?
[laughing]
[gasps, breathes shakily]
[water running]
[melancholy music playing]
[breathing shakily]
Hmm.
[Da-rim gasps]
SEON-U
[water running]
[wind blowing]
[water running]
I'm going to buy some meat on my way home.
-Are you?
-What are you having for dinner?
I want to spend some quality time
with my family.
-I should ask my kids.
-[Jin-hui laughs]
-All right.
-Bye, everyone.
-Have a good night.
-Good night.
-Get home safely.
-Have a nice evening.
-Good job today.
-See you tomorrow.
[Nan-suk exclaims, laughs]
Excuse me, Mr. Kang.
Yes, Ms. Go?
Can I get Mr. Gong's address?
What for?
I can't help but think he got sick
because of me,
so I thought I'd get him some porridge
on my way home.
Oh.
You're so thoughtful.
-[chuckles]
-One second.
[Gyeong-min sighs]
[peaceful music playing]
[pneumatic door whirring, hissing]
[doorbell ringing]
[Da-rim sighs]
Did he go out somewhere?
[sighs]
-[door beeps]
-[lock clicks]
What are you doing here?
I heard you were sick,
so I thought I'd bring you this.
It's porridge.
If you already had dinner,
you can heat it up and have it later.
-If you put it in the fridge--
-How did you know where I live?
It's incredibly rude
to show up unannounced.
I'm sorry.
Mmm. I didn't call
because I didn't want to disturb you,
but I did send you a text.
I just thought…
having someone check in on you
when you're sick
could maybe provide some comfort
and strength.
[Ji-hyeok] Does your husband…
know you're here?
[melancholy music playing]
Pardon?
A man lives here alone.
What would people say
if they saw you here?
Don't cross the line.
Wait.
If you don't want the porridge,
there's also medicine…
[exhales sharply]
…and this month's payment in here.
Today was payday.
That's also why
I wanted to see you in person
and thank you.
I had no other intentions.
[whispers] I'm sorry.
[normal] I'll get going now.
[sniffles]
[melancholy ballad playing]
[Ji-hyeok] I'm…
not a good person.
Sorry?
I'm also swayed.
A man lives here alone.
What would people say
if they saw you here?
Don't cross the line.
[music continues]
[Ha-yeong] Ji-hyeok.
What are you talking about?
I want to get married
as soon as possible.
[pop music playing]
DYNAMITE KISS
[Ha-yeong] What are you doing?
Have you lost your mind?
-Is this because of Go Da-rim?
-You're the one who's lost your mind.
[Ji-hyeok] Why do you make me worry?
You always mess up,
get hurt, and fall ill.
Can't you get your act together?
[Da-rim]
I told you there was nothing between us.
I just need to work as a team member
with him as the team leader. That's it.
I'm a pro!
It's okay.
It's my job.
You're here to make money,
not to play around.
[Ji-hyeok]
If something like this ever happens again,
I'll kill you with my own hands.
You don't know anything.
This is just a misunderstanding.
A misunderstanding?
Then tell me. What do I not know?
