Birth Secret
Episode 6
Is my baby a good baby or a bad baby?
I'm going to be a bad baby, bad baby.
- A bad baby. - You should be a good baby.
Stop crying, stop.
I don't do a foolish test like that.
Do this.
You can't do this?
I just got in the taxi. Is he still there?
He's not going anywhere but is staying put there?
A few minutes ago, she uploaded their picture in a hotel swimming pool.
So they should be at the hotel swimming pool.
She commented that they'll be paying the balance at the condo
so they should still have some money left.
I'll call you if anything else comes up, so be careful, Kyung Doo.
I heard you lent money to Kyung Doo because of Jong Tae, too.
I did.
From what I heard, you also gave money to Jong Tae's wife...
Yes... I guess I did.
Somehow we came to share the same fate.
We...
Fate...
I'll be back in 20 minutes to escort you.
After lunch, you have a tea time reserved with Mr. Morgan at 12:40 pm.
We'll be on standby in the next room.
If you need anything, please press the button.
Then...
Now, let's hear what you've plotted in detail.
As I told you on the plane, all the necessary materials are here.
I organized it for your easy viewing.
JP Brothers will come already familiarized with the data.
They probably didn't have time to officially review the whole thing
so you can consider today as a preview meeting.
As long as you handle unexpected questions, all will be well.
Unexpected questions?
You know I'm a bit obsessively meticulous.
You may not need it, but I organized some expected questions just in case.
It's a bit silly but please just consider my sincere effort.
Please read it over once, Ki Tae.
I'll be back.
Wait! You'll be back?
Am I going to the tea time by myself?
Alone?
Actually, David's parents does not wish to meet David.
What?
David thinks he's meeting his biological parents today.
Then, did you lie to me?
Ki Tae, please don't shout.
Uncle always yells and so do you.
As thick-skinned as I am, even I'm scared of being yelled at.
Then how much Sun Young...
I mean sister-in-law would feel?
In order not to make it a lie, I have to persuade his parents.
I'm leaving, Ki Tae.
Good luck.
Ki Tae, it hurts. Let it go.
How dare you try to pull this kind of trick on me?
That's right...This is it, isn't it?
Humiliate me by making me meet JP Brothers unprepared
and make David's meeting with his parents return to nothing.
In the end, I, who am fully responsible over this thing
will receive many praises from my father, huh?
If you wanted to ruin me, you didn't need to drag me all the way to Jeju.
I'm returning immediately, so get ready.
Ki Tae!
It's Mr. Chairman.
Yes.
Managing Director Choi, it's me.
Yes, Chairman.
You know very well the kinds of hope and affection for our electronics division?
There's no way you wouldn't know how painful it is for me to decide to sell it.
Yes.
Ki Tae...
Yes, yes, Father.
As it stands now, JP Brothers you're meeting today is the only alternative
to keep the management rights even after its sale.
I'm counting on you.
Why isn't there an answer?
Yes, I understand.
Alright. I will call again.
Yes.
How wonderful would it be if you're always so sweet to your son like this?
It's almost driving me to tears.
Thank you, Chairman.
Thank you.
Hae Deum. Stay put right here until I come back.
Okay.
Make sure to stay put.
Ki Tae. Although David was born in Korea, he's already an American.
Plus, he is a businessman.
Because he saw potential profit from Yega Electronics, he decided to meet us.
If there's no hope, he wouldn't have taken time
to come here, regardless of meeting his biological parents or not.
You take this side.
No matter what happens, I'll bring David's parents here.
I'm going, Ki Tae.
If you need anything...
No, I'm alright.
So please help, Managing Director Choi.
I understand.
You said it's not our first time meeting, right?
I've been in Seoul Headquarters until the winter of 2006.
I see. Then.
You're a doll! A doll!
Let me take your picture.
You're so cute.
Jong Tae, me too!
There's no other goddess. Let's take it together.
I'm so happy crazy.
One, two, three...
Kyung Doo! I...So...
Jong Tae. Where's the money?
You have the money, right?
Give it. Give it to me.
In order to bring Yoon Hee back, I absolutely need that money. Got it?
Money...Money...
Please hear me out, Kyung Doo.
I did wrong.
You don't have to say you're sorry.
Just give me back my money.
I'm going to live happily with Yoon Hee and Hae Deum.
So just give me the money, you scoundrel!
Kwang Sook!
Jong Tae! Jong Tae!
Are you warm?
You're sweating.
Use it.
Since you're clean, you won't pass the germ to me.
Wipe it.
If you're done, give it to me.
You can't talk?
You should say thank you.
Why...Why are you here alone?
Dad told me to wait here.
That's Uncle Jong Tae and Aunt Kwang Sook.
Jong Tae!
That's Dad!
Hae Deum, stay right there. Right there!
Yoon Hee!
Yoon Hee?
I don't know what's going on, but please watch over Hae Deum for a bit.
We'll talk later.
Hae Deum, stay with mommy, until I come back.
Hey, excuse me!
Mom?
Here he goes again.
He keeps calling anybody 'Yoon Hee' these days.
I can just wait here.
Miss, you can take care of your stuff.
You don't have to do this.
I can't leave her alone here, so I'm taking her with me for now.
Call me.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Don't do that.
Sit straight and wear your seat belt.
Are you seeing the ocean for the first time?
Yes.
We'll look from here and once we get in the car, you'll sit in nicely, okay?
Yes!
If we lose that car, I'm dead, sir.
Please don't lose them, please.
I am too ashamed to see him.
Just get out of here.
If you have eyes, look.
His father is paralyzed and unable to move.
He is literally just breathing. He won't be able to survive.
So, go tell him that we are both dead.
- Mother, please don't do this and... - I said, leave.
I can't even live with my face lifted up.
How could I face him?
Why are you stopping?
Go! Follow them, sir!
We're on a red light. How can I go?
We should go.
Your son doesn't think so, Mother.
Your son came all the way here from America to see his mother and father.
He only searched around Busan thinking that you lived there.
And after hearing that you're here, I contacted him immediately.
He said he'd come to see you that instant.
That means he's been thinking about you two everyday.
That means, he's never forgotten you even once.
Please.
Excuse me...
Grandma, are you sad?
Because Grandma's crying, Hae Deum is sad too.
Just a little more...
Just a little more.
More...More...
Jong Tae, you dog!
Yes, Ki Tae. It's me.
Did you have a good meeting?
Until now?
The tea time is that long?
He hardly shows his intentions.
I don't think he'll make up his mind easily.
How is it going there?
Alright.
I'll try talking to him, so be on standby there.
Alright.
David. I have a good news and a bad news.
Which one would you like to hear first?
Good news. That sounds good.
Your parents have decided to meet you, David.
What's the bad news?
Initially we were going to bring your parents here.
But you may have to go there, David.
Your father is not well.
It's going to be hard for your father to come here
because he is sick so I think you should go there to see them.
What is wrong with him?
Did she say anything else?
After the pool photo, no other posts came up.
She might suspect that they got caught because of the post
so she might not post anymore. What should we do?
Kyung Doo. Why don't you just come home?
They're determined to run away, so we can't catch them.
I see.
Just look for them until tomorrow and come home.
Tae Man!
Your store must be unoccupied, why are you...
Would you like to come in?
It's not that...
My mind is unsettled...
Because we are sharing the same fate...
You didn't eat anything all day.
This isn't really good.
Mom, please watch the store.
Let's go, eat with me.
Thank you.
How can I thank you enough?
Why?
It's too big.
Take a bite and give me the other half.
You don't know how to use the chopsticks yet?
I try but my fingers are not following it.
It's like this.
Now, look at this.
Put one chopstick between your thumb and the index finger like this.
Let the other chopstick pass between your third and fourth fingers like this.
After that, like this.
Dad!
Yoon Hee, where are you going in the middle of eating?
Finish and go.
How did you know I came to Jeju Island?
How did you know and follow me?
I should be the one saying that.
How did you know I came here and followed me?
How did you know I went to that hotel to catch Jong Tae?
I have nothing to say.
Where are you going?
If you leave like this, how can the people left behind eat feeling empty?
I'm busy.
Let me go.
You can eat quickly and go.
I have to eat quickly and go back to that hotel.
What did you say?
Jong Tae, that jerk, ran away in a swimsuit without even packing his things.
He should be coming back to get his luggage.
I should go and keep watch.
Why that hotel out of all places?
David left early. What are you doing here?
Ki Tae, I was eating...
Dad, what are you doing?
Yes. Let's eat. Eat.
Let's eat and go.
Let's eat.
What's this? Do you know him?
No, Ki Tae.
There's no time. Get in quickly.
Dad, what are you doing?
Yes. Let's eat quickly and go.
David.
This is Director Jeong Yi Hyun who first contacted you.
Nice to meet you.
I'm Jeong Yi Hyun.
Mom...Dad...
Where are they?
That was that lady's food.
Why don't you order a new one?
From long ago, I always ate your mom's leftovers.
It's been a long time.
Yoon Hee's leftover rice.
How long is he going to stand there?
It was daytime before but now it's dark.
But you remember it clearly?
I said I do remember.
Grandma's place will be coming up soon.
Of course.
You're our girl after all. Why wouldn't you remember?
But, why did you leave the bag there?
I'm sorry.
You should go and rest.
I'll take David with me later.
I don't think there's a need to say goodbye.
Alright. Let me know as soon as you return.
Yes.
I'll leave Branch Manager Jeong Sang Gook here.
It's okay.
Go back together and rest.
David. How long are you just going to stand here?
What are you saying?
Your parents might be much more painful than you.
It is here or over there?
Here.
Dad! Dad, you...Let me hit you just once.
Excuse me...
My baby left a bag...
What kind of jerk is this?
What on earth are you doing?
Why did you send me away? Why did you do that?
Do you know how much I missed it here?
I wanted to come home. I wanted to come home!
You jerk!
Let go! Let go!
What's going on here?
Yes.
You said you'd report.
How did it go?
David will be spending a night with his parents.
I'll be picking him up tomorrow morning.
David is very grateful.
You and me...He wishes to invite us to lunch tomorrow.
I think it'll go well for us.
Alright.
Tell me where you'd stay. I will take you.
Where else would I stay?
I told you I will keep watch there at that hotel.
You can't go there.
Can't go? How many times do I have to tell you?
Jong Tae that jerk left his stuff and ran off.
You'll keep watch of the lobby with a child the entire night?
I'll hold her tight like this all night, so don't worry.
Yoon Hee. Your daughter...
Didn't I raise her so well?
That jerk Jong Tae did something good to me.
He ran off here out of all places, so our Hae Deum and you...
You just embarrassed me. You look cold...
I have too much to think.
Please give me time.
You said you can't remember.
You said all your memories were wiped out.
Are you asking me to wait until your memories come back?
Even if it's 100 days or 1000 days
are you asking me to wait until I grow old and die?
There's no guarantee that all my memories will come back.
At least, time to think what I should do...
I need time to sort things out.
How much time?
Two to three hours? Six to seven hours?
I waited for seven years since Hae Deum's birth.
And I haven't heard how you've lived and where you stayed and why you left me.
Do you need more time to sort out what you should do?
Sort it out. Sort out a lot.
Sort it out while you tell me how you've lived, while living with me and Hae Deum.
Because you're that impulsive
and not thinking through things, you get tricked by your friend.
Come to some senses, Mister.
I have no desire to go to you.
But thinking to bring me back, you tried to buy your friend's billiard bar?
If you keep doing this, I have no other option but to hide from you.
Would you want me to hide? Should I hide?
Just tell me one truth.
Even if your heart isn't after me, it is after our Hae deum, isn't it?
You like Hae Deum, don't you?
You love her so much, don't you?
She's so lovely, isn't she?
You'll want to see Hae Deum again, won't you?
Tell me. Now.
Hae Deum...
If I want to see her, I'll go see her.
Hooray! Hooray!
Sir!
It's been awhile, right?
I was so eager that I came knowing that it was your lunch hour.
Eat fast with lightning speed.
I'll wait outside.
I was told the memories left in my body do not go away.
But I was wondering why I couldn't remember the pain of childbirth.
No matter how much I try to deny it
such great pieces of evidence that prove that I gave birth...
Her photographic memory which remembers everything she sees and hears...
The child who sings the same lullaby
that my mother used to sing to me when I was little.
I probably sang it to that child's father and he must have sung it to her.
And also...her thumb that bends out.
Although I was looking at it all, I couldn't remember that I gave birth to her.
That literally drove me crazy.
Out of frustration.
But then, when that child came hugging my neck...I remembered.
I remembered the tremendous pain I had during childbirth, Doctor.
Tell me the circumstances in more detail.
The circumstances when you were giving birth.
Rather than the circumstances
it's more correct to say a memory of pain.
I was just lying down in such bleak pain.
Some old lady was helping me, and...
I was holding someone's hand.
You're my doctor and I'm your patient
so you'll keep confidentiality...
You don't need to worry about that.
Continue on.
When I first met you, when I was confused with my memories of ten years erased...
I thought it'd be fine not to remember them.
Shall I lie down on the couch?
Whether it's hypnosis or psychoanalysis, I must try to remember them now.
After I met my father, what happened...
Why I went up the rock from where I released my mother's ashes to die...
What happened between my uncle's family and me...
Why Sun Young is so fearful whenever she sees me...
And about the child's father...
What kind of person he was to me.
Since no one is telling me, I would have to remember them on my own.
Please help me, Doctor.
From now on, come see me regularly.
Yes.
Once a week.
Yes.
Two o'clock on Friday afternoons work for me.
Yes.
If there's anything that can help recover your memory, bring that too.
Like what?
What kind of thing do you mean, Doctor?
[You may show up here someday, so I leave you this memo. Contact me.]
Come down.
Yes, Sun Young.
Should you have your elders wait for you?
I will be careful.
Let us pray.
Heavenly Father.
Keep it short.
Thank you for giving us this food.
Amen.
Our Managing Director Choi accomplished a great task.
Why are you being so stiff, Chairman?
Your family will get indigestion.
You were so sweet to him last time.
It'd be nice if you always encourage him like that.
When do you sign the contract?
It'll be next Monday.
Did you exchange the terms of contract?
Yes.
Who drafted the contract?
For now, the legal department is working on in.
Don't leave it to them and you personally go over line by line...
I'm sorry.
Sorry, family members.
Go on with your food.
Hello?
After the contract is finished and regain the management right, you take charge.
Pardon?
Hallelujah. Thank you, Heavenly Father!
Congratulations, Ki Tae.
Aren't you happy, Sun Young?
Congratulations.
Are you out of your mind?
Through whom are they coming to Korea if not through us?
That is crazy, seriously!
Who stole them?
Who is it?
Hey, you're not going to say it?
Do you want to die?
You need a good beating to spit it out, huh?
Burn that brat's company right now!
Chairman...
See me for a bit later.
What is the matter?
I have something to ask you.
You said, when you came to this house
after you got married, no one told you about my existence, right?
Yes.
During our study-abroad days, have I mentioned about this household?
No.
You seemed to be receiving some tuition from someone.
But when asked, you never told me.
You graduated a year before me.
And I returned to Korea a year after you, right?
Why are you being like this?
Do you remember something suddenly now?
I'm trying to remember.
I must remember, Sun Young.
After I jumped 10 years, I went to your house first
but your sister Hye Young told me not to bother you.
And she even gave me money. A lot of it.
Why did I...For what reason did I harass you.
What happened between us.
Please tell me, Sun Young.
Sun Young, wake up!
I won't ask again, Sun Young.
Please come back to your senses.
I can't tell you.
I won't tell you.
What are you? What did you say, you punk!
How could you tell me to tell her myself?
Are you crazy?
Then, should I?
Soo Chang. Please don't.
What's the matter with you?
Why did you become like this?
Why are you sick like this?
Why are you so sick like this!
If you left me, you should have a good life.
Be well off and so full of bliss! You should be happy.
Why?
Who made you like this?
What's the big deal about that?
Once you tell her, it will be nothing.
Let's go.
Let's go to Yi Hyun.
This won't work.
I can't just leave you be.
Let go!
- Let go. - Let go!
Where are we going?
I'm not going.
Stop the car.
Aren't you going to stop it?
Be quiet.
We're not going to Yi Hyun, so please don't scream, you brat.
Where is this place?
What's this?
What are you doing?
Son! So, what about the money?
Please be patient.
I'm borrowing money from here and there.
That's quite troublesome.
Can't you get it faster?
Wait. Please just wait!
I'll send it as soon as I get it. okay?
Soo Chang!
Yes, Soo Jin. Where are you?
I'm on my way to see a friend.
Which friend?
Sook Hyun.
Why are you meeting Sook Hyun?
Sook Hyun is working at a bank, you know.
Mom asked me to find out about a loan.
You don't need to find out.
Go play. Just go play!
Your brother will take care of it all!
So, you can simply go play with your friends.
Stop. Please stop.
Since 12 years old, I've been living like this.
No matter how much I earn, as soon as my pay is deposited into the bank
it slips out in paying debt.
As time passed, nothing gets better.
I am the only one who got educated.
Plus, I went to study abroad to that expensive America.
Paying incredibly high tuition!
They were all debt.
The more I studied, the greater debt my family incurred.
That's why I did it.
That's why I dumped Yi hyun and went to you.
Once I go to you...I could pay my family's debt
and marry my sister off, and stop my mom from nagging about money.
You said you loved me.
Although I didn't love you
I thought of being good to you with all my life.
And after being dumped by you, I returned to Korea.
And it turns out you and Yi Hyun are sisters-in-laws.
Yi Hyun erased her past.
And you...are locked within your past and barely breathing.
What about me?
What am I supposed to do?
What am I supposed to do, Sun Young?
To the two of you, I was a bad lover.
And still a bad friend.
Despite all that, I have to live.
Sticking around you two.
Yi Hyun wants to scout me.
She's offering double of my salary.
The condition is better than any place.
Once that actually works out...
I'll be able to breathe.
Making you anxious, and unable to confess to Yi Hyun...
I'll have to do as she says.
I have to pay off my parents debt, buy them a house, and marry my sister off.
Please get better quickly, Sun Young.
Please don't get sick. Please.
If you get sick again, I'll tell Yi Hyun.
It won't be bad to confess my sins and be saved.
You were pretty. Lively too.
Don't you remember?
But the way you are now...
What's this, you punk?
Grumpy old man.
So now, I'd like to just say what I came to say and leave.
I'm going to college this fall. To America.
Originally, I was supposed to receive a company scholarship.
Because I changed my specialization, I can't get the scholarship.
That company only sponsors tuition
fees to students who major in top-notch science and technology.
So, I have to come up with the money on my own.
With $4,000 from mom's account and $5,000 from my stock investment
although I don't know exactly how much I'll make before enrollment
but it will definitely be short of the tuition amount.
Please just make up for the difference for my first semester's tuition.
I'm not asking you to just give it to me. I'm asking you to lend it to me.
I will definitely pay you back.
Before Mother passed away, she clearly ensured me.
When it's absolutely necessary, look for you to help me for just one semester.
Just in case you mistake my mom and me for some kind of gold diggers.
So let me repeat.
I'll certainly pay you back, even unto my death.
Did Jeong Joo Gyum die?
She had pancreatic cancer.
Sun Young. Come in.
Come on out.
Ki Tae, what's the matter?
Did something happen to Sun Young?
Is she sick again?
This...
David said he forgot and gave it to me at the airport.
He said his mother borrowed it from a little kid who was with you.
That is...
Who is that kid?
She's a child I somehow got accompanied by there.
Somehow?
Yes, somehow.
There's something like that, Ki Tae.
Good night.
Rock, paper, scissors.
Freeze.
Hae...
I was going to put more but I didn't have enough left, so it's just your wages.
So there you go.
Then, where will you be going now?
It doesn't matter where I go, now this store belongs to the bank.
It's not mine.
I see.
'I see', what?
Buy your father some nice clothes.
Thanks for everything.
Me too, Boss.
Alright.
Let's not show the parting tears.
So hurry on.
Boss! Boss!
Jong Tae! You scoundrel!
Jong Tae!
Mom!
Let's go. Let's go home.
Yes.
Come on. Let's eat. Quickly.
Mom...
What's this?
Hi.
Well, who is this?
Have you been well?
Yes.
I've been well.
Why is your nose runny?
Did you catch a cold?
No.
I don't have a fever.
You seem to be a bit feverish.
It's not a cold but sinusitis.
Sinusitis?
I'm sick and tired of it.
It seems to go away and comes back again and again.
It's mine!
I brought back what you left behind in Jeju Island.
No wonder.
I looked everywhere but couldn't find it.
Sorry, did I pull too hard?
Be gentle.
Alright, I'll be gentle.
I will do everything you tell me to.
You told you you'll be my god.
I'm sorry, Sun Young.
I won't beat around the bush.
Do you... know my father...
Professor Choi Gook?
Father-in-law, please receive my greeting.
I am Kyung Doo.
I knew how much you were looking
for Yi Hyun, but I couldn't tell you.
Father-in-law or not, I should just...
I remember now.
It's clear that we loved each other.
We loved for sure.
