Childless Comfort Subtitles by jTBC
Episode 3.
We told your brother the truth, so we aren't responsible.
I do regret telling him a little bit.
- We can't take it back. - How is he?
- I wonder what he decided. - I don't know.
What's your schedule?
I was going to get my nails and hair done, but I feel bad.
- Right? - Yes you shouldn't.
You are so thoughtful.
It's obvious.
- Keep me updated. - Okay, good bye.
- Should I not go? - Why?
Isn't selfish to make money when my brother is hurting so much?
- Father says to run a good business. - The employees are there.
Until the day you die, greeting your customers,
is the duty of a business man.
Alright.
- No employee is better than the boss. - Okay.
A boss who isn't there, the business will close down.
I said ok.
Customers don't like a business without a boss present.
You're so cute when you nag me.
You cuddle at night, and again here?
Yes.
You guys always kiss just do it at night.
- Good bye mother. - Bye.
You at something salty?
- Don't you get nauseous? - Yes but he likes it.
If I'm not affectionate he says he worries the whole day.
- Is our love dying? - Okay.
Good for you.
Any man who loves my daughter, I thank.
What?
It's gross when old couples like you kiss.
- Mom. - What?
How was it to have a kid without a father?
I was so happy that I made sea weed soup.
Never mind...
You couldn't really sleep right?
I told you not to drink ice water even when it's warm.
You did.
I always told you\M to drink warm water.
You did.
- Stop. - You're not a child.
You threw up and had diarrhea all night.
- Sorry father. - His blood pressure went down.
- The worst thing.. - Look. - I'm not here.
He suffered all night, that's enough.
Why did you eat ice all night?
Father.
When your husband was eating ice?
What did you do?
Don't blame her.
The worst thing you can do is be sick in front of you parent.
You just think it's no big deal.
But seeing your child sick, is hard on me.
- You have 3 kids. - Alright.
They know, he said he was sorry.
That's enough, now go about your business.
Summer is over, why are you eating ice?
There are times where you're hot and want ice.
Then go outside and just watch the stars.
He needs to eat porridge, leave him alone.
- Pay attention to him. - Okay.
I won't see my child die before me.
My goodness.
- What? - Lets go already.
He's that age and still makes us worry.
Is it bad?
Your face...
Did you...
You couldn't sleep.
- You look tired too. - Honey.
Eat it.
- His blood pressure went up? - Yes.
Leave.
- Leave. - I ...
- What did.. - Leave!
I just didn't couldn't keep this from you.
- Why are you.. - Hwi-gyu.
- Ok? - ok.
Ok.
Why is he acting like that to me?
Hwi-jae is sick.
He ate ice all night.
His blood pressure was up, he threw up, and had diarrhea.
Yea.
He looked so bad.
My dad was yelling at them.
Hwi-jae is mad at me.
Yes Hyo-joo.
Oh it's Dae-gi?
Did you dream a good dream?
It was the first night you should have had a nice dream.
I can't control that dad.
I'm so tired.
I wish I could just sleep for a week.
Dad hold on.
Good morning father.
We slept well.
We had a headache from the new paint smell.
You can call a professional to remove the smell.
Your mom was cheap that we used coffee to cover the smell.
Let me talk.
Your mother wants to speak to you.
Did you make him breakfast?
What soup did you make?
The side dishes?
I told you not to make him bread.
Did you listen to me?
We bought some English muffins at the store.
He wanted that so we ate that with coffee and juice.
If Dae-gi wants rice I will make it for him.
But mother if I lied you would have believed me.
What?
So you'll lie from now on?
Or what?
Don't worry about what we ate, I'll just end up lying.
Would you rather have me lie or tell the truth?
You need to trust us.
You aren't very smart.
If you didn't say that I would have believed you.
I'll think you're lying from now on.
You're so sharp.
I'm not as sharp.
So just leave us alone and don't ask what we eat everyday.
If he wants rice, I'll make it for him.
Dae-gi went to work.
He has a lot of emails to write.
I'm off until today.
- I need to clean the house. - Ok bye.
She isn't listening to her mother in law.
Let them take care of themselves.
What are you doing?
Why are you making ramen?
I wanted it.
You're not in college, why are you making ramen?
Leave me alone.
Yes brother?
Hold on.
- My brother wants the car. - The gas is full.
You can use it.
The rumors spread.
You got this job through connections.
Is it true?
- What if it is? - Just wondering.
You're still so arrogant.
What?
Go get me a coffee.
Macchiato.
She's mean.
What?!
Yes a macchiato.
Where are you going?
Is she really a doctor?
She's the owner's niece and has skills.
- I'm getting coffee, what do you want? - Americano.
Get me a napkin.
- Over here. - Okay.
Sorry I'm late, I slept at 4am.
I slept in a little.
Starting tomorrow I wont.
- Are you deaf? - Their are customers, speak softly.
- I see. - Come here.
You're the president's relative?
His mother's friend's, friends...well yes.
How old are you?
- 2978. - Stop joking.
I'm 18 and a junior.
Did you get an interview?
My grandma sent a picture and they told me to come here.
You're lat the first day?
Why are you speaking informally?
Without my permission?
What's your surname?
Do you know what that means?
Just ask me what my name is.
- What is it? - Oh Soo-mi.
What's yours?
- Wear this. - Okay.
Sorry mom.
What did your father and I do that was so wrong?
It has nothing to do with you.
It didn't come from the sky.
I'm 36.
That doesn't justify it.
You know how we live.
You say that as an excuse?
It wasn't a one night stand.
Where are you?
Tell me!
Your dad's blood pressure was up all night.
He threw up all night.
Tell me.
Tell me!
You won't see her?
No.
Ok then.
Don't yell at her too much.
We can't talk standing.
Make this short.
- Start. - Your dad and I.
We are the easy to disrespect?
If we were that easy to disrespect you do this.
You don't care about this family?
You're 36 and so great.
So you ignore all us and decide this yourself.
- You would tell me to abort it. - Of course.
You're not married and want this child alone.
- I wanted this baby. - Why?
Why?!
- What about your life? - What about it?
Being a single mom won't ruin my life.
Is that...
- Is that something to brag about?! - I'm already too old.
After 35 your eggs get old.
I won't be able to meet another guy.
I want a child even without a man.
- This is my last chance. - Why isn't there a man?
- Why can't you have a child? - I didn't want to live with the guilt.
- That's why you're a single mom? - So what.
If the man dies, or it was a one night stand.
It's a done situation.
I couldn't kill the baby inside me.
It's different for me, but others can't live with the guilt.
I will raise my baby better than others.
I don't need to get married.
You're daughter is a single mother, get rid of your prejudice.
People need to get rid of their prejudice.
- Our country.. - Don't lecture me!
I didn't come here to learn.
I trusted you.
I trusted you 100%.
I thought you were busy, I thought you didn't need side dishes.
You didn't want us to come.
How could you trick us, and get pregnant like that!
I'm your only daughter.
If this happened to others, they wouldn't be this pregnant.
Others will become daughter in laws.
You don't even want to get married!
It is absurd.
It is,
absurd?
Your father,
was cried all night, and on the way here.
How can you do this to him?
You know how he feels about you.
Until middle school he hugged you and called you genius.
- That was dad's selfishness. - Fine!
All parents want the best for their child.
That's what a parent is.
- How can you say that? - Sorry for disappointing you.
That isn't all of it.
What about your life?
I will take care of this!
You call yourself a judge? You bad girl!
A single mom isn't illegal!
Why are you so ignorant?
All the women want v lines.
We can make them a pretty face but the dental is important.
They wouldn't want to have dental side effects.
If we want the bottom jaw to align we need to match it up.
Look at this.
The face gets smaller with the jaw inward.
It's the face that everyone finds attractive.
Yes dad.
Dad.
Your forgot your wallet.
- Dad. - Where is the bathroom.
This way.
Mom.
Sorry to disappoint you.
It just happened.
I'm ok don't cry.
I'm attached to the baby.
Don't say that your my daughter.
How can you laugh?
I'll get you some water.
Don't hate my child, it can hear us.
She's crazy.
I can't believe this.
I just saw her pregnant belly.
I can't believe this.
I wish this was a dream.
- Who's the father? - I don't know.
She told your aunt that he was dead.
She doesn't want to tell us.
I wanted to know if you knew anything.
She never said anything about herself.
- She didn't mention anything? - No.
It's too late now.
I know.
- What did you and mom do? - We,
couldn't do anything.
What can I do...
I can't do anything.
I want to take the child and give it to an orphanage.
- What did So-young say? - She wants to raise it.
She quit her job and was living secretly.
I want to know how she could do that.
Men you do that.
But,
not my daughter who is sharp as a knife.
I can't believe it.
- It doesn't feel real. - But dad,
she look down a few months ago.
She would always say she was too buys to talk.
Your mom even got her medicine so she wouldn't be tired.
I don't know how your mother is doing.
She wouldn't kill her, would she?
- Ahn Sung-gi. - Yes?
- You're immature for your 30s. - What?
Are you a singer, what's with your outfit?
Are you a gangster, what's with your tone?
Didn't you know?
Do you remember you saw my sister at the bar?
- Yea. - It was a man?
Of course it was a man.
Why?
I'll tell you.
I was in love.
I thought I would marry him.
I told him that we needed to get married.
He was to marry someone else.
He wanted me to kill the baby and break up.
- Bastard. - The wife's family is rich.
His parents are farmers.
They bought them a brand new apartment.
I thought that was possible.
I didn't want to be clingy.
I trusted him and liked him.
It was me who didn't know he would do this.
It was all my fault.
I will take care of the child.
I wanted to abort it.
I even went to the hospital.
I was curious how my kid would look like.
I thought I should be responsible for my actions.
What about him?
- What's his name. - No need to know.
He got married.
He would call me when he was drunk.
That he still loves me.
What a bastard.
- What will he do? - He was just saying sorry.
He doesn't know?
It's my child not his.
You will raise it?
You want me to give it up?
Find it some good parents.
Even happy orphans come to find their mothers.
Why do you think?
What do you think they grew up thinking?
So-young.
How can you say something that harsh?
Yes that was harsh.
My child is first before that bastard child.
The bastard child is my child! It comes before you.
You're worried about the family reputation not me.
Don't worry about my life!
How dare you yell at me?
Family reputation isn't that important.
An excuse?
You angry that I might mistreat your unborn child.
You expect me to stay calm when my child is like this?
- Leave now. - How could you do this?
- Leave. - Are we poop to you?
- As a child how can you do this? - It's my life!
You brat.
I'm pregnant do you want to get arrested.
Call the police!
Yes?
- I want to talk to Lawyer Ha. - He is on a business trip.
- When will he be back? - The weekend, I can take a message.
Hello?
Ahn So-young's brother. Tell him to call me.
- What is your number? - You don't have called id?
Lets talk on the way.
- Were you harsh? - I hit her.
Lets go.
What do you want for lunch?
- What? - What do you mean?
Will I starve? Yes.
I won't die.
- What will you eat? - You never make what I want.
Rice or noodles?
I just ate ramen for breakfast.
I won't eat.
Mother why are you cleaning?
- I don't like to rest. - I will do it.
Its ok.
Where is Ji-ae?
- She isn't home. - They went to Seoul.
I see.
Was it something urgent?
- She didn't clean? - She did before she left.
I see.
Why did they go?
- I didn't ask. - I see.
Then what about lunch?
Father is out and I can just eat rice.
Hwi-jae was sick all night.
Yes I heard.
He drank ice water.
Even when he was young, he would get sick with ice water.
I see.
- Yes mom. - What are you doing?
Tell me how many people.
3 or 7?
Hwi-jae can't eat.
She's home alone?
Is my food unpopular?
No father is out.
And Hwi-jae went to Seoul. Mother is alone.
Bye.
My mom is making mixed rice.
She was sad father wouldn't compliment her.
I'll do it.
I'm here.
- You're here. - Yes.
- Ji-ae give me some food. - She isn't here.
My mom is making mixed rice, is your wife coming?
No I came alone.
Did,
you fight again?
No we didn't.
- Brother I'm here. - He's not home either.
They went to Seoul together.
- Tea. - Him.
Did you get burned?
We can't do anything, she wants to raise it.
How will she?
She said she would take care of it.
- That brat. - Kids are like that.
Then the kid,
needs to go away.
I suggested adoption, and she wouldn't allow it.
She said we should just disown her.
I beat her.
I don't know what to do.
There's nothing we can't do.
- Who's the dad. - She won't tell me.
- Does he know? - She wouldn't tell him.
- What? - I know.
- He's married. - Bastard.
Who is that bastard? What does he do?
We can't do anything.
I'm her father, I need to beat him.
I'm her dad.
I'm her dad!
- Honey. - Just watching,
I can't stand it.
I need to use the bathroom.
I must have been homeless in my past life.
When I see food, I drool.
- My mouth waters. - Honey.
He's good at eating.
He eats whatever I give him.
He says everything is good.
I ate it one time, and I put too much vinegar once.
He didn't even get sick.
- He's really healthy. - It looks good for 15 seconds.
Then we mix this all up and eat it.
- I always think that eating mixed rice. - I know.
Food isn't taste, but sight and smell.
If you mix it you wouldn't eat it.
Just because it's pretty doesn't mean it tastes good.
She worked hard to make this.
We're just family and you worked too hard on making good.
I understand, but I can't just do it simply.
- Mom you eat it. - Just eat it.
He has one.
It tastes so good.
Thank you.
Mom I'm the youngest.
- You should give.. - Your mother in law cooks well for you.
- Do I starve you. - When did I say that?
- Why are you looking at me? - I just did.
Do I need to pay?
We eat enough at home.
- More than one is ok. - More than that is dangerous.
- No it's different. - It will change again.
Give me pepper paste.
- Don't eat so much. - Just a little bit.
That is so small.
- You said a little bit. - Just a little bit more.
Here.
- Dae-gi. - Thanks.
This looks fake, it's so red.
It shouldn't be red this quickly, this is fake.
Joon-gi's friend brought it from England.
It's not good that it's this red.
It does taste good though.
Yes it is really red.
- I'm right. - Lets take this away.
- I will make some new tea. - Mine too.
The tea is weird, it's red like food coloring.
- When does it expire? - I don't know.
- What are you doing? - I can't unplug this.
- Just give up. - You always do that.
You always say that you can do it.
You shouldn't say you can.
It's empty they must be at our house.
Have kids isn't so fulfilling.
I don't know my kid, my kid doesn't know me.
I can't know everything.
We were misguided.
When something happens we need to let it go.
Anyway we need to ask Hwi-gyu first.
Lets ask them.
- Ok? - Alright.
It's dad.
I'm home now.
No I have medicine at home.
I'll be home soon.
Drink lots of warm water.
- The patient is ready. - Okay.
Dad I need to work.
Don't think of it so much and pretend its someone else's problems.
- Watch your blood pressure. - Okay.
If I misbehave your mom will die.
Sung-gi,
have you called So-young?
Maybe she would tell you.
Alright, bye.
He didn't call her.
He doesn't want to talk to her.
- Hwi-jae. - Is Hyi-myung there?
Yes we ate lunch.
Brother.
- Did you see the brat So-young. - What brat?
- Why did you curse? - That isn't...
- I don't say that, watch it. - Did you see her?
- Is she pregnant? - What?
Why are you getting mad at me?
- Did you have lunch? - No we couldn't.
- Mom hurry. - I'll be quick.
No I will eat the porridge, I want to eat light.
- It will be ready soon. - Just let her go.
- Sit down. - Yea mom.
I'm home.
- Are you feeling better? - Yes don't worry.
Are you sick?
Thanks for the car.
I filled the tank.
It's my car.
You're funny.
- Lie down. - Why?
You'll know when you lay down.
Are you deaf?
You aren't listening.
- Why do you keep telling me too? - Just do it.
You're very strange.
Sit down, right.
What are you doing?
- Ride a bike. - It hurts.
Because you never exercise.
You're not a child and you're so stubborn.
You need to ride the bike.
I'll just die, don't worry.
You did that on purpose!
There's no other choice.
So-young said she would?
We need your permission first.
I'm sorry.
- I know that Sae-rom doesn't want to adopt. - I know, I'm alright.
It's your grandkid, if she says ok.
Well.. she has some trauma..
- Trauma? - Yes.
Something like that.
- You can't even ask? - I will try to ask.
- Ok just tell her our situation. - She knows that.
Just say you made a mistake.
- It's natural. - No not that.
I don't want to say that I cheated.
I don't want her family to know that even if it's a lie.
You're dumb.
Just tell your friends it's adoption and tell mom and dad it's yours.
You're dumb.
I only tell them I had it?
Yea that's weird, then lets say adoption.
- I'll ask her. - If not, I'll say I had it.
- That doesn't make sense. - I have 3 kids, adoption doest make sense.
- That's true. - You need to help us.
When I first heard about So-young for a while,
no that's a lie.
In 10 minutes I thought that we should raise the kid.
She never said that, how can I ask her?
How do I ask her?
That is such a touchy subject for her.
Even if I see a baby, I need to pretend I didn't look.
I'll say I cheated.
- That doesn't make sense. - Then what do we do?
What happened to us?
I don't know either.
Do we have to live like this until we die?
Pack your clothes and move in with your father.
- My clothes? - Put the money in my name.
- What? - I can't give you any.
Just take your clothes and shoes.
- And your golf clubs. - What the...
It's so absurd.
Even the crickets stopped chirping.
Yes son.
Did you come home?
I just got home.
My boss told me to come home early.
Where's dad?
Mom I heard you said something to Hyo-joo about breakfast.
I'm not telling on her.
I don't want Hyo-joo to go through that.
I wanted bread for breakfast.
The muffin is really good.
It's me, what you said is right.
Why does he tattle?
Its only been 5 minutes.
Mother what do I do?
How can I live with him?
You must have a hard time, I understand you.
Yes just watch what you say.
- You need to protect yourself. - Yes I will try.
Dad or mom?
If you have a book you want, text it to me.
I'll bring it this weekend.
Lately there's nothing I want to read.
I need to be peaceful to read.
I don't want too.
You should go exercise.
Golfing costs $200.
After I quit, I only went golfing twice.
I need to repay them.
- Why would you tell him that? - I'm talking.
Don't worry your father said that to bother me.
Mom I was talking to dad.
- Did you eat? - I will right now.
Okay eat, bye.
- Ok. - Give it to me.
Why did you hang up?
Really, I didn't know.
- Something bad. - Someone sick?
No.
Grandpa is getting mad at you for not marrying?
- No my sister. - What?
- Just drink. - How bad is it?
Am I right,
is what I suspect true?
- Go and see for yourself. - I already spoke to her.
She thinks something is up too.
Marriage,
is nothing to be easily thought about.
Yes?
Ahn So-young is my sister.
Yes I need to confirm something.
Let me ask you straightforwardly.
I met you at the wine bar.
You dated my sister?
Just answer me.
I know you broke up.
She's about to deliver. Hello?
Hello?
I don't care what you two agreed on.
You kid is about to be born.
That's it.
I never thought this was possible.
We need to cover this up.
If we cry and beg her,
she might understand.
- Lets hope. - She came this far.
She obviously thought about this.
Even though she might change.
We might be able to convince her.
The pain the child will feel growing up without a dad.
Its uncle can be its dad.
- Why didn't she think that? - I don't know.
If the child is raised by your brother,
she can see it, and we can see it too.
- We can help raise it. - Yes.
That's the best plan.
- What happened to us. - I know...
Heavens.
Not because we need a child.
I'm not saying this because I want a kid.
I always say childless comfort.
We don't need kids.
If we do our kid might end up like So-young.
- That's not it. - Enough.
Thanks for lying because you love me.
I know how you feel.
Don't make me sad and cry.
I really don't want too.
I'm a bastard child I don't want to adopt a bastard child.
Having to take care of that child, I sometimes forget now.
That child will bring back memories.
You don't know how big my scar is.
Yea I don't know.
That way we can love it more.
What if we try our best to raise it?
I always say its not my fault.
I feel like I don't belong on this earth.
Someone will find out that I'm a bastard.
There will be a rumor.
I get so scared ~
Ok don't cry.
I just asked, for my brother.
What do we tell them?
What's going on?
It's nothing.
We were just crying after saying who will die first.
She got emotional.
You two are overly attached.
Don't cry, it's unlucky in the night.
Your brother said you're having a baby.
Call me.
Yes sister.
You've gone crazy.
I called him.
I'm a smart man.
I figured it out, I've never seen you with a man.
He told me that you dated.
I called him and told him.
He came back after 15 seconds of silence.
Why did you do this?
He's married!
Why can't I? For who shouldn't i?
He's fling is having his baby.
That bastard needs to know.
Why does he need to be comfortable.
Why are you cursing?
You think the world is that easy?
You don't realize what you've done?
You disgraced our family.
Call me when you're sober.
Ahn Joon-gi.
Tell us about your coffee.
Ok.
My coffee is from the hills of Kilimanjaro.
Like Africa, it has deep taste and strong smell.
It is good for ice coffee.
It is the favorite of the English Royals.
- When is the harvest? - Dec - Feb.
I'm home.
Mom do we have food left?
- You didn't eat? - I had a snack.
- What did you eat? - Rice cake.
There was a smell from it.
- Come down. - Is Sung-gi home?
He's home.
Showering?
I've seen this before.
Honey what's wrong?
What is it?
- What time is it? - Around 5:30.
- We need to call Hwi-gyu. - What did you dream?
- She doesn't want to? - Yes.
- Then what? - You have it.
- At 60? - It doesn't matter for men.
- I can have it. - Yes you can.
But you're wife is a teacher.
- Just adopt it. - My wife has 3 kids, parents.
- I don't.. - What are you doing?
Where are you going father?
I went for a bike ride.
I need to keep my legs strong.
Starting today I will ride it 30 minutes.
Don't ride it too quickly.
Stop nagging me.
What do we do?
- You want to golf? - How did you know?
Why are you all upset?
- Can't you see? - What does this look like?
Stop calling me jerk.
- Got it. - I will hide.
I can;t take this.
You nag about everything little thing.
- Mom. - What is it?
Hurry.
