Childless Comfort
Watch Yoo-jin.
- Why? - Preparing to be kicked out.
I need to pack.
- Are you ok? - My judge granddaughter.
She was the pride of her restaurateur grandfather.
When she got better,
he was hoping that you would be a lawyer at a big law firm.
- Don't tell him. - My parents are coming home.
We are both thinking the same thing,
- we should just tell grandpa. - What if he has a stoke?
At our age, death is always waiting at the front door.
When we sleep sometimes I wonder if I will wake up the next morning.
I can't take responsibility.
From working all those years we are both sick.
We don't have the strength.
You did useless things.
Just tell your mom that we will ignore this.
What?
When until grandpa dies?
- Yes? - You're home.
Good lets drink come with Joong-gi.
Why did something happen?
Is she sick? Do we need to go?
Grandma is sick.
- Your uncle and aunt aren't home. - It's not that serious.
Sung-gi is home.
Make less appetizers, good thing we didn't use a whole can.
Yea.
Lets eat this today and cook some more.
They are coming soon.
What happened? How is grandma?
Did she calm down?
Nothing happened right?
Grandpa is asleep and grandma has calmed down.
- Ok. - Did he drink a lot?
Yes he drank a lot, he went to sleep as soon as he got home.
- Did something good happen? - Grandma wants to just ignore it.
So-young is packing and grandma just said to ignore it.
She said that we shouldn't have called you.
She wants you to make a lie for why you came early.
Mom wants to ignore it?
- I heard. - She is afraid of father.
- She is worried for grandpa. - Yes she should be.
Mom loves father.
So he is sleeping so we are safe for today.
- I understand mom. - We should just tell him.
We can't lie forever we should just tell him.
Yes So-young can't even call her child her own.
- Right? - Lets go.
Yes we need to go.
You go first, I can't face my mom right now. I can't do it.
- After you.. - Fine then.
Thank you.
You can all go home.
- The stuff. - Just do it tomorrow.
Everyone get in.
- She is packing. - Yes.
- Leaving with the baby. - Most likely.
- How will she raise her. - She will do it herself.
You should be nicer to her.
- What? - You don't really talk to her.
I only see her at breakfast.
What will you do?
- I will feel sad without Yoo-jin. - You fool.
What?
Mother.
Sit down.
I said to sit down.
I want to go hide in a hole.
There is no hole big enough to fit you.
You are old too.
I know that you are tired taking care of us.
But,
how could this happen?
I knew something was wrong.
It is my fault, I trusted her so much.
I said to sit.
I know they are adults but still,
how could you let this happen?
Children...
I didn't want this for them.
What will you tell your father why you came back early?
I think grandma is right.
If grandpa knows all of us will be in trouble, he hates lying.
It's a serious lie.
He will make this a prison.
Grandma would feed us though...
I can really make Yoo-jin my daughter forever.
I just have to deal with the girl I will marry, it's not the same for you.
Single mom's aren't accepted.
- You need to work. - See how mom is.
Okay.
- I am sincere. - Ok thanks.
Why do you care about my family problems?
It is the after math of something that happened.
You don't need to know.
It wasn't my problem.
- I don't want to tell you. - I want to know.
I have weird hobbies.
If I am curious, I can't sleep until I know.
What made you run out, what did your grandma find out?
What did your sister do?
There aren't any connections.
- I can't sleep. - Ask for a sleeping pill.
Tomorrow I don't know if I will be there.
The elders in my family, need to be well.
No it's not like that.
I'm taking a shower bye.
Let just listen to mom, dad won't be able to handle the truth.
This will blow up in our faces.
Lets just leave it, when it does we can just blame mom.
We wanted to tell him but mom said not to.
That is bad.
But mom can only handle dad we are all dead.
- Dad won't blame her. - So we can't just blame her.
He will be so upset.
What do you think?
We can't make mother lie for us.
We just need to reveal the secret.
We can't just keep this secret behind father's back.
I agree with this.
If dad finds out we lied, he will come out of his grave to kill us.
So-young and us will be free.
We can go back to normal after father knows the truth.
What do you think?
I don't think so.
If it's not Joong-gi's kid he will make us raise the baby so that So-young won't have too.
Don't worry about that.
- We will raise her. - Still...
What if father makes us raise it.
- I don't want too. - Don't worry.
I won't allow that.
Stop thinking that it's not all about you.
I feel like you are still bitter about us?
- I need to talk to Ji-ae. - What do you think?
Huh?
I don't know I'm worried about mom.
Make a decision.
I need to speak to her.
- Going? - Yes.
Lets go, we ruined our camping trip.
- Sorry. - It's ok.
Good bye.
- Good bye. - Rest.
My jacket.
Just ignore it.
Just listen to mom.
- We need to talk. - Me?
- You need to drive better? - Forget it.
You drive really bad.
People who joke around are the ones that die.
You speed during the night time.
I almost peed my pants.
I could only tell you to slow down twice.
- That is how accidents happen. - Honey.
You need to drive slowly and smoothly to make someone fall asleep.
You need to change lanes smoothly too.
- Why do you switch lanes so much. - You aren't a great driver either.
My car and I are one.
How is my driving?
You drive stupidly.
- Going off the wrong lanes. - That is enough.
Stop fighting, lets go.
- We will talk about this tomorrow. - Fine then, tomorrow.
Your driving is reckless.
- It's better than stupidly driving. - I am your older brother.
I was just worried about you.
I drove 8 hours and you don't even say thank you.
What did you say?
That little brat.
He drives better than you.
- He drives dangerously. - Ok ok.
I might pass out.
I don't remember the last time I drank like this.
There were a couple times.
You drank so that I had to stay out all night.
My mom is waiting, I can't disappoint her, you are a mamma's boy.
I had to watch you all night, fed you breakfast in the morning.
When I get home, my mom was so upset.
That's enough.
You drank too much.
Ok stop.
I'll get you ice water.
Ahn Dae-gi.
What?
Come here, here.
- I will bring you water. - No sit, I have something to say.
What is it?
I know what that means, lets go inside.
You know why I couldn't give you up?
What?
Love isn't that important.
Love is just our hormones in our body.
Love goes away like the seasons.
Yea.
Our love turns into marriage.
And the love turns into family.
We live with each other like best friends.
We care for each other.
- That is love. - There was one reason.
No matter what you would always be loyal to me.
That is why I married you.
Lets go inside.
I really hate your mother.
If you say that you will hate her more.
- I really hate her. - Say that you like her.
She started it first.
I can never forget.
When I came by,
she got meaner by the minute.
We are married now.
Tomorrow is important not today.
Our lives are like a book.
If you turn the page, it's a new day.
Kiss me.
So that I will melt.
- Kiss me passionately. - Okay.
What?
- Lets go in later. - Why?
The stars are nice.
- There are no stars. - Just stay still.
They are kissing.
In the living room?
I drove all this way and he criticizes my driving?
I was getting mad too.
They sit so comfortably.
They didn't even ask to drive.
They did say that.
- When? - In the bathroom.
- Who? - Hwi-myung.
You should have made him.
He is such a bad driver.
What's happening.
Why do I hear voices?
- Am I dreaming? - Why are you exercising so late?
Think of her as your daughter.
I would never raise my daughter this way.
Dae-gi probably told her to clean it later.
What is so urgent?
We were like that too.
They must be so happy.
I miss those days.
- Take a shower. - I don't want too.
- You're dirty. - I will sleep in the study.
What did she say?
- We talked. - What did she say?
- She doesn't want to tell father.
I don't know.
- You didn't ask? - I don't want to talk to her.
The votes are divided.
The youngest want to listen to mom.
- What do you think? - She is packing.
She will leave.
Stop it.
- We need to stop this. - But mom,
I will go see her.
- Yes? - It's dad.
Come in.
Is that what you think?
I am embarrassment to the family.
I need to find a new job.
Why are you packing?
No one is kicking you out.
What about Yoo-jin?
I will take her.
Mom.
What will you do today?
I don't have any patients.
- You need to driver your sister. - I will drive it.
You don't have a car seat.
- You won't go? - Not today.
You need to turn on the heater.
You need to clean the house.
Then,
someone needs to turn the heater on.
- I will do it. - I will buy a heater.
That won't work.
Listen to your mom.
Wait a minute.
- So-young wants to tell. - She does?
What will you do?
Now,
family can help each other, so what?
She agreed too?
What did she say?
Yes.
- Oh. - What did he say?
They want to tell the truth.
So what will happen?
What about the timing?
After he comes home from exercising we will tell him.
Then it is soon!
He will be so upset.
What about Hwi-myung and I?
We all lied.
It's better go before he calls us.
If you come it's better but,
father will yell at all 3 of us.
I can't ask you to do that.
No don't say that.
We started it, we are responsible too.
You did that for our sake.
- Grandpa is home. - I need to go.
I will take care of it.
What did they say, you need to go?
- The weather is cold. - It is fine.
- Insulate all the windows. - Okay father.
- Come in. - Just come outside.
What is it?
So-young is telling the truth.
- She listened to me? - No Ji-ae wanted to tell the truth.
We just open it all up.
What about us?
- What? - Hwi-jae?
We did all this, we need to go and be with him.
We did enough, let him deal with it.
It is their problem.
We were a big part of it.
Yes that is true.
Father will call us, we should go and wait.
- He is taking all the blame. - You just go.
You are so selfish.
We know how dad will react, why would we go and get stressed out?
I have a lot of complaints, for father.
How old are we, he shouldn't treat us like little children.
There is no father like ours in this time.
This isn't the time.
We should go so he won't yell at us.
We will all get yelled at sometime.
I will pretend that I'm not home.
I will say that I went to play golf.
- Hwi-myung. - Our family is a mess too.
You fought again?
You think all we do is fight?
- Then what? - Just go.
Tell me what's happening.
You want me to go alone?
How selfish.
- What are you doing? - I will clean it.
Wakeup, your parents are home.
Hurry up.
How embarrassing.
Your mother is going to kill me.
- They are telling him? - Yes.
When I saw the baby I was sad for it.
- Father will be ok right? - He will be shocked, but he is strong.
He will be ok.
He will want to remove So-young from the family tree.
The family tree doesn't mean much.
It will be hard on him mentally.
Did something happen?
Did your buzz wear off?
You should have woken us.
- You were coming tomorrow. - Yea.
The truth that Joong-gi's kid is So-young's came out.
What it's her child?!
They don't know?
Drink coffee and cut the bean sprouts.
- Sorry mother I forgot to clean. - It's good that you're comfortable.
How can you sleep making the kitchen a mess.
We were drunk.
- We won't do that again. - It sounds like nagging.
You shouldn't do the same mistake twice.
- Yes. - She was drunk.
Your mom is a clean freak.
She is strict so you need to be cleaner.
Yes.
Your mom didn't make you clean the kitchen?
No.
- She wasn't the Cinderella's step mom. - Go and drink coffee.
- Give it to me. - Leave it.
Give it to me.
Honey.
You should take her in.
Come out.
Go in with your dad.
Aren't you going in?
Alright,
alright.
- We have something to say. - Come in.
What is it?
Father.
So-young.
- Hwi-jae. - Sorry mother.
She doesn't want to lie anymore.
- My words mean nothing. - That isn't it mom.
What is it?
What is going on?
Father that...
We did something really wrong, please forgive us.
Joong-gi's daughter is actually So-young's.
You knew this?
- Yes. - No.
Mother found out yesterday.
The man she was going to marry,
he broke up with her.
And she couldn't abort the baby so she had it.
And I,
told her that abortion was wrong from an early age.
I,
should have told her not too.
- Why did you blame Joon-gi. - Well father,
he was worried about her.
It's better for a man to have a child out of wedlock.
It is horrible for a girl to do that in our society.
- Why are you telling me. - Mom,
found out yesterday.
We needed,
to tell you.
That was the right thing.
- Do your brother's know? - Yes they all know.
It was their idea to make it Joong-gi's baby.
They put a lot of effort into it.
Sorry grandpa.
More than my parents,
I was more distraught from disappoint you two.
You love me so much.
You expected so much from me.
I am so sorry.
Sorry.
I need ice water.
Joong-gi.
- Yes. - Ice water.
- Okay.
Hwi-gyu.
- Hwi-gyu. - Yes.
- Yes? - What is it?
What do you mean?
Why did you make me call you twice?
- Do you need something? - Do you want potatoes or radish?
Anything is fine.
Radish will take some time and potatoes will be mushy.
Ask Sae-rom.
Honey.
So-young,
she will move out with the baby.
The heater was off.
Sung-gi will go and turn the heater on.
They will leave tomorrow.
Her plan was to,
raise the baby herself.
But we convinced her,
to make the child Joong-gi's.
She will take the child and go.
I told her to leave.
I,
am so sorry.
- I agree with you. - The weather is cold.
How can you tell her to leave?
You guys are so stupid.
Tell her to leave in the spring.
Father...
You didn't have breakfast.
- Is it over? - I think?
It was so absurd he didn't know how to be mad.
Or he felt bad for your sister.
I'm not sure.
We need to make more.
Your child is that way.
She is just a normal person.
Your father,
has no will to live.
I thought the house would be a ruckus, but he just left.
Sorry.
He left.
Father says,
he wants her to stay.
The weather is cold.
- He said we shouldn't. - We should!
- I'm tired. - Everything is over now.
Where will she go?
She wanted to do that.
- I'm tired. - Don't say that.
Don't be embarrassed.
Wait.
Thank you.
Father is being weird.
He didn't say anything and just left.
Even when you told him?
How could he just leave?
Really?
Did his eyes roll back, like a stroke?
Why is he being so quiet and calm about this?
I think its because So-young cried and said she was so sorry.
She said that she was more sad about upsetting them then us.
- She cried like a baby. - Is that what calmed him down?
He must have calmed down seeing her cry.
Hwi-myung,
told me to go in by himself, because he would pretend to golf.
- He just wanted me to go and see. - Father is here.
He wants to see you.
Father is here!
I thought the matter was settled.
Bye!
- Father. - Come here.
Ok.
- Father come in. - Come here.
Okay.
- Run. - You bad boys come back!
Come back!
- More chloride. - Ok.
- When did she come? - At 5.
- Are you ok? - What?
- You need to rest. - Stop it I'm fine.
- Good bye. - Thanks bye.
Why did you take so long?
I was cleaning the dishes you forgot.
- It was 3 cups. - You need to do it.
- I don't like vampire movies. - You promised to see it.
Why is it vampires?
Vampire men are so sexy.
They are so good looking.
I would love a man like that.
You like this?
They need to make their own kimchis.
Mom likes it.
I know that.
Why do we have to do this?
It's just once a year.
While they are alive we have no choice.
We need to do this.
We cleaned up everything.
We cleaned everything, its all done.
- You told them? - Is it time to eat yet?
I want some cabbage soup.
My mouth is watering.
- You had lunch. - It was a different stew.
You forgot what you had for lunch?
I will do it.
- I'm so tired. - You didn't do anything.
I worked hard.
I want a nice cigarette.
Sung-gi has surgery and Joong-gi has work.
Only our family is working.
Was this planned?
I guess it turned out that way.
- Spoons. - Get the spoons.
This is for grandpa.
Hey stop that.
What?
Have you looked at me that way?
What did I do?
You feel sorry for her.
- Your mom is jealous. - No I'm not.
It seems that way.
He's never looked at me with those eyes.
That's how it is.
My husband was like that, and your husband.
All sons put their mother's aside,
and only think of their wives.
He is too much.
He looks at Hyo-joo all day.
You were busy checking up on him.
I raised him so well.
He doesn't know how to control himself.
- Thanks you did a lot. - I just ran some errands.
That is more tiring.
- Is the food ready? - Yes it is.
Is father early.
I didn't ask him.
You worked so hard today.
Not a lot of families make kimchi like ours.
Yes.
You worked so well.
Good thing so your mother in law wouldn't yell at you.
She worked so hard.
- Don't make me sound like that. - I just meant she is so good.
Right she worked so hard.
Yes she did,
she worked really well.
You have no reason to complain about her.
She needs to be her best today.
Some people are really slow.
Time isn't everything.
She likes it.
Tell her to stop studying and come.
Dinner will be ready soon.
Lets go to the sauna later.
We worked so hard today.
We need to rest.
Hwi-jae,
when will this be ready for a opening?
But I don't think you're that good.
This isn't that good.
Lets go to the sauna.
You always say mean things.
Are you upset?
Yes I don't feel good.
- You say mean things. - That isn't what I meant.
- I'm itchy. - Throw it away.
- I was just itching. - Come and eat.
Ok food!
He's so sensitive.
Does he think he has actual talent?
I want more soup.
This is good for men.
Give him some more too.
He needs to eat it for cholesterol.
I'm eating.
Did Yoo-jin eat?
No she didn't want any.
Ok.
Just go to a good law firm.
You will be the best there.
I feel the same way.
- You can't just study away. - That's not what I'm doing.
Didn't the law firm call her?
They asked her to come.
No they were just curious about me.
That is the same thing they want you for their law firm.
They expected me to go somewhere else.
They are just curious about me.
People think I'm married.
Better then them knowing you had a baby.
What do you need to study?
She needs to study.
She needs to exercise her mind.
She reads all those books.
That is true.
You always say such smart things.
You are so respectful.
No since she was young, she was so smart.
She was born with talent.
So she passed and became a judge.
Top in her class.
- She is a genius. - No I'm not.
You are so humble, genius.
Lets go to the sauna.
We can't just take a shower.
And after that we can have some cold beer.
It's not good for him.
I love saunas.
The hot and cold weather is not good for your blood pressure.
He is fine, will you go?
- Want to go? - Just take a bath.
I will pay for it.
- Want to go? - No thanks.
Dae-gi lets go.
- I want to rest. - We can just go.
Why do you ask them, sometimes you're stupid.
What is so funny?
- Nothing. - How rude.
- That is offensive. - No of course it's not.
Don't say that.
Tissue.
I'm ok.
- Lets go. - You go inside.
I don't like that movie.
It's scary.
How can I go in by myself.
I charged my phone, I will play games.
I am so nice. I should just leave you.
Lets just go.
I'm really ok.
- Yes father. - Tell Sung-gi to get married by spring.
He is old, he needs to get married.
Look at So-young its because she wasn't married.
- Think about it. - Ok.
I will.
Don't just leave him, no one will marry him.
- No he will be fine. - Look at So-young.
No one will know what happens.
- I can't trust you anymore. - Sorry father.
- Leave. - Good night.
He wants Sung-gi to get married by spring.
How can we do that?
I know.
- Are you ok? - My stomach is hot.
- Your body is still tired. - I want some wine.
Aren't you suppose to not drink?
Lets drink at my house, leave your car here.
Hurry.
- Good thing we finished early. - Sorry to call you on your day off.
- It's fun, I will drink now. - You should just stop drinking.
Are you crazy? I will never give up wine.
- I'm home. - Did you not come home?
- I won't trust you anymore. - I hate that you don't like me.
Who were you with, it was a girl.
- That wasn't it. - Are you gay?!
How can you call her grandma.
- I don't want to get married. - Why?
- I just wanted a discount. - We aren't dating, it's weird.
Get up.
Are you a dog, don't bite him!
I will come out.
Who is that?
- Who is it? - The father's mother.
I am coming.
