Episode 17
I got worried when I heard you suddenly turned in your resignation.
Did you come all the way here just to ask that?
I'm glad to see that you're fine.
Ms. Nam Da Jung.
Can you...
live without me?
I thought of what it would be like to live my life without seeing you.
Sure.
'The time I lived my life not knowing her is so much longer. How hard can it be?'
But...
to think about how I'm going to live my life in the future without seeing you...
I didn't feel confident.
If I had never met you...
All those times that I was never afraid of...
I had no confidence.
And I was afraid.
I missed you.
Mom.
I know that lady.
Lady!
Lady, what are you doing here?
Woo Ri, that lady really looks like our mom.
What are you talking about?
What do you mean she looks like her?
And our mom is dead!
If our mom were alive...
she would've never left us alone.
She would've already come to get us!
Man Se.
Let's go.
You could've just left.
Still since I came all the way here, I should at least greet your father before I leave.
Oh right! I should've bought something. I don't have anything with me.
It's fine, you can just go.
If he knows you're here... Dad's going to be so happy.
Dad, the Prime Minister is here.
Father.
Is he already asleep?
Dad.
He's sleeping, let him be. I'll just get going.
Still, you came all the way here.
Dad, wake up.
- The Prime Minister is here. - Father.
Dad.
Father.
Doctor! Doctor, please save my dad! There's something wrong with him!
But did that lady really look like our mom?
They look exactly the same.
What do you mean they look exactly the same?
Kwon Na Ra.
- Do you even remember Mom? - Why wouldn't I remember her?
I clearly remember her! I remember her knitting a red sweater for me.
I even remember her braiding my hair.
And I remember Mom singing to us while she played the piano!
Why wouldn't I remember?
If you remember so well, how could you say they're the same?
How does that woman resemble our mom?
She doesn't even come close!
She's not even close to resembling her!
Why is he snapping at me for no reason?
I don't remember mom at all.
It's a relief that we were able to detect it right away.
While he was sleeping, it seems his body went into shock from the pressure to his brain.
Since he received first-aid treatment, don't worry so much.
Thank you.
- Prime Minister, you can go now. - No.
I'll stay with you.
The kids will be waiting, you should go home.
I already called the maid and told her that I might not be home.
Do you think...
my dad will be fine?
Of course. He's going to be fine.
Don't worry.
I think I should meet up with Woo Ri.
If I talk to him directly, don't you think he'll want to see you?
There's no need, Joon Ki.
Joon Ki.
I met the kids.
- What? - Na Young!
Where did you see the children?
- How? - Woo Ri...
he saw me, but he purposely said...
that 'Mom is dead'.
- Na Young! - He said 'If Mom were alive...
she would've come to get us.'
Joon Ki.
I had nothing to say.
Then did you think they were going to say 'Mom' and welcome you with open arms?
Were you not prepared for something like this?
Honey, why are you getting angry with Na Young?
How can I not be mad at her right now?
Na Young, this is just the beginning. How could you start wavering like this?
If you don't stand firm, you'll never be able to go back to the way it was before, got it?
I swear, what has gotten into you?
Na Young, don't be concerned. He's just upset.
I know, Yoon Hee.
But I...
don't dream of going back to the way it used to be.
I would just... like it if I can meet the kids again.
There's nothing more that I hope for.
What I'm going to do if Woo Ri hates me?
There's no way. Woo Ri loved you so...
Na Young!
By any chance... do you think Prime Minister Kwon told everything to Woo Ri?
Even about Kang Soo Ho!
Father.
Dad... are you back to normal?
- Do you recognize who I am? - Brat.
- Are you joking right now? - You recognize me, right?
- Right? - What a relief, Father.
What a huge relief.
But son-in-law Kwon, what are you doing here? You should go to work.
I can go now, don't worry.
Prime Minister, don't you think you'll be too late?
No, I just need to change my clothes at home and go to work right away.
There's no need to follow me out. Hurry and go in.
Prime Minister.
Thank you.
Not at all. He's my father, too.
Prime Minister.
Make sure to eat well, only think happy thoughts and...
don't cry in front of your father. Got it?
Okay.
Good. I'll call you.
Oh my. You're awake.
How are you feeling?
Doctor.
You're not calling me 'Honey' today. Do you recognize who I am?
Yes, Doctor.
After waking up from my sleep, it's been a while since I've felt this clear-headed.
But is it all right if I ask you a question?
How many days do I have left to live?
There aren't many, right?
I swear I lost ten years of my life because of you!
Right. The Prime Minister said he's going to call again later.
If you don't finish your lunch again, I'm going to tell your son-in-law.
- Da Jung. - What?
- Give me the journal so I can write in it. - The journal?
I thought you said it was bothersome. Why do you want it all of a sudden?
The children came yesterday and so did son-in-law Kwon.
I want to write it down so I don't forget.
Sure, Dad.
You're doing the right thing.
The Doctor said it's good to have a journal so write diligently.
But there was pen right here, it's gone. Do you have a pen?
A pen?
Hold on.
What is this?
That? The kids said it was your present and they put it in there yesterday.
Hey. They brought this and said this was my present.
Lady. Please hurry and come back! Man Se is driving me crazy.
Rascals. They don't even get a lot of pocket money.
Ms. Da Jung. The physical therapist would like to see you.
Yes, I'll be right there. Dad, I'll be back in a little bit.
Goodness. You little brat, I asked you for a pen.
Here it is.
Let's see here.
What? Contract...
Woo Ri. I heard you came to visit yesterday with Na Ra and Man Se.
Thanks for the necklace.
Dad, I'm here.
Dad.
Da Jung.
Just... what does all this writing mean?
- Dad. - What is this contract marriage?
And what do you mean that the children's dead mother is alive again?
How much did you tell Woo Ri?
- Did you tell him about Soo Ho, too? - What are you talking about?
You act all nice and tell me to come back as the children's mother.
You went to Woo Ri... and told him everything, didn't you?
You met Woo Ri?
- I didn't tell him anything. - Don't lie!
If not, then there's no way that Woo Ri would ignore me like that!
You know it's not a lie.
You know, but...
you're afraid that you won't be able to have his heart again.
You know I'm right.
I don't believe that time will take care of everything.
However, to Woo Ri...
that's what he needs right now.
Be a little bit more patient and wait for him.
I'm sorry.
For saying such nonsense.
I won't trouble you with these issues anymore.
Na Young.
Come to think of it...
I forgot to tell you something important.
Thank you for being alive.
I wanted to say this to you when I saw you again.
Dad.
Da Jung, how could you do this?
How could you completely fool me like this?
I'm sorry, Dad.
I wasn't trying to deceive you, but...
now I really love the Prime Minister.
He feels the same way. So, Dad...
Do you think the two of you liking each other is the end of it?
Also, you said the children's mother is alive. What are you going to do about that?
That's...
Why in the world did you do something like this? Tell me!
Why did you fool everyone and even me to do something like this?
What for? What for? Why would you do this?
Was it because of me?
Because I have a fatal disease?
Is that why you did it?
It's all... it's all my fault.
It's all my fault.
- Dad, I was wrong. - No! You did nothing wrong, Da Jung.
I'm the one that made you this way.
It would've been better if I was already dead.
I lived too long. I lived too long.
[Nam Da Jung's Official Diary]
In Ho, you're here.
Did your meeting go well with the Prime Minister yesterday?
Yes.
He said...
'Thank you for being alive.'
In Ho. When I returned as Park Na Young...
did you know that my greed got so much bigger?
It's a miracle that I'm alive.
To be able to dream of seeing the children while I'm alive is a miracle.
I was too greedy.
I think I can patiently wait now.
For a miracle...
that Woo Ri will let me meet him.
And...
for a miracle that Soo Ho will wake up again.
I want to believe it, too.
Really...
I really want to believe it.
Prime Minister.
My dad found out about everything.
The contract marriage... and the fact that Madam Park is alive.
Okay, I'll be right there.
I'll go and explain everything to your father so don't worry and stay put.
Okay.
Dad, what are you doing? Are you going somewhere?
Da Jung! Did you come back from school?
- Dad. - Da Jung.
It's snowing right now. Let's go outside and have a snowball fight, okay?
Dad, what are you talking about? What do you mean it's snowing?
Look, look! It's snowing like crazy!
You keep complaining that it never snows.
Are you happy that it's snowing now?
Dad.
You said when it snowed a lot, you wanted to have a snowball fight with me.
Let's go. We can have a snowball fight and let's make a snowman, too!
Hey, let's have a really great time today!
What are you doing? Let's hurry and get going!
Hey, Da Jung. I'll make you a huge snowman today, let's go.
Sure. Let's go, Dad.
It's so nice.
It's so nice to see all this snow falling.
Da Jung. You like it too, right?
I like it too, Dad.
I like it a lot.
Goodness, it's snowing a lot!
Father.
- How did Da Jung's father find out? - In Ho!
- Come quickly, In Ho! - What's wrong?
- Is he having seizures again? - No, it's not that.
I think... Soo Ho recognizes me!
Soo Ho!
Soo Ho.
Can you hear what I'm saying?
Do you... know who I am?
Dad are you cold? Let's go inside now.
Goodness. Still, our Da Jung is the only one that thinks of me.
Goodness, you're so pretty!
How am I going to let you go?
Dad.
I don't know who you're going to marry, but that man is really blessed.
Just what kind of man will he be?
Someone that only has eyes for you, who thinks only of you
and cares only for you. A good man like that.
He is that kind of person, Dad.
A man who only has eyes for me and who loves only me.
Sure, sure. You need to meet a good person like that.
So...
on the day I hold your hand and you walk you down the aisle
I hope it snows like this.
Dad, don't you remember?
The first snow fell on the day that I got married.
It snowed heavily like today.
The whole world was white and pretty.
It felt like I was being blessed.
Dad, you really don't remember?
Dad.
I'm sorry.
Lady, are we not able to see Grandpa now?
No. Grandpa is living inside your heart, Man Se.
So if you miss him, tell him that you miss him.
- Then he'll hear you. - Really?
Of course.
Really.
Woo Ri.
Will you take your siblings and go to the car first?
Okay, Dad.
Let's go.
I liked Grandpa.
- He was so good to me. - Na Ra.
Don't cry.
If you miss Grandpa, the Lady said to talk to him inside your heart.
Then you'll be able to meet him.
You dummy! Do you actually believe that?
He passed away. How can we meet him?
Then... do you think we can meet our mom that way, too?
That's all a lie!
Woo Ri.
Is Na Ra telling the truth?
We can't meet Grandpa?
We can't meet Grandpa.
But...
you can meet mom.
You worked hard, Prime Minister.
I'm going to leave later, so take the kids and go first.
It's better to just cry.
At times like this...
you can just cry.
Do I have the right to cry?
I wanted my dad...
to forgive me.
No.
It's okay if he didn't.
He could just get angry and hate me.
All of that would've been fine.
But... to send him off like that...
I...
can't forgive myself.
Da Jung gave me a journal. What should I write?
I played go-stop with son-in-law Kwon. I got three points.
Things that shouldn't be forgotten.
Da Jung's birthday, August 15th.
My name, Nam Yoo Shik.
My daughter, Nam Da Jung.
Dad, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Dad.
Why did you suddenly decide that you had to see mom?
It's because of Grandpa.
After he passed away...
Knowing I won't be able to see him anymore...
I just thought it was time to meet mom now.
Woo Ri, you've grown up a lot.
Woo Ri, go to her.
Hello.
Woo Ri.
- Mom. - Yes, it's Mom, Woo Ri.
Is it all right if I hold you once?
I'll let her meet Man Se and Na Ra slowly.
It's not easy for me to tell them at their age.
Sure, I understand.
When I asked you to take back Na Young last time, pretend that you didn't hear it.
And...
I know that I've done a lot of bad things to you.
I went too far.
If I apologize... will you accept it?
You're saying all sorts of things, it's unlike you.
You're not saying you'll accept my apology.
Think about all the things you've done to me.
You think it'll be easy to accept it?
Do you think...
we can go back to the way we were before?
It will be difficult right away, but... I'm sure time will resolve it.
We're friends.
Well then... take good care of Woo Ri.
Okay, don't worry. I'll be going first.
By the way, Joon Ki.
There's one thing I realized while I was going through this situation with Na Young.
That you shouldn't make the person standing next to you lonely.
Don't make the same mistake I did.
I feel so bad for Da Jung.
Can you imagine the heartache she's going through from her father passing away?
Her father passed away and the Prime Minister resigned.
The say all bad things come at once. That's exactly her.
Watching the confirmation hearing of the new Prime Minister...
- It really made me sick to my stomach. - Wait a minute.
If Prime Minister Kwon becomes unemployed... what happens to Reporter Nam?
Am I supposed to reinstate her?
Don't worry about me and worry about the company.
- Da Jung! - Reporter Nam!
Thank you for coming to the funeral.
I was so out of it then that I didn't even greet you guys properly.
- Da Jung, are you all right? - Of course, I'm fine.
I came here to ask a favor of you.
I'll come back for it later, but for the time being can you hold onto this box for me?
Da Jung... are you planning on going somewhere?
A trip?
Where are you going to go?
Just... to the places that I've gone to with my dad.
- Wherever my feet take me. - By yourself?
No. With my dad.
By the way, Director Kang.
Congratulations on your brother finally waking up.
I'm not sure...
- if I should accept your congratulations. - Why not?
You were hurting a lot because of your brother.
It's a relief he woke up.
But it's quite neat, don't you think?
On the day my dad passed away, your brother woke up.
As your father left, I think he gave us a gift.
A gift that's a miracle.
Thank you for saying it that way, Director Kang.
But...
did you tell the Prime Minister about your trip?
Not yet.
- I'm going to now. - Until you come back...
he's going to be very worried.
When do you plan on coming back?
I'm not sure.
Don't you think I'll know when I get there?
[Prime Minister Kwon Yool]
Prime Minister.
I've prepared the reports for the inauguration of the new Prime Minister.
The ceremony for your resignation tomorrow will officially be the last of my duties.
All right, good job.
And the maid just called, she is at the house with the children.
Will you go to the new house or the residence?
Since it's the last day, let's go to the residence.
Prime Minister.
Ms. Nam Da Jung said she's going a trip. Do you know about it?
As I suspected, she didn't tell you.
Prime Minister.
Ms. Da Jung said she will be going alone on her trip. I'm worried.
Shouldn't you prevent her from going?
- If she doesn't come back... - Director Kang.
Do you remember what I said when I married Ms. Nam Da Jung?
That I would have to pay for the consequences of this contract marriage someday.
For some reason those words keep hovering over my head.
Like you said, she might not come back from her trip.
But even so...
I don't think I should prevent her from going.
I... will never leave your side, Prime Minister.
Because I love you.
I think you need to leave my residence.
Remember what you said? You promised to be a Prime Minister that serves the people.
I trust you to keep that promise, Prime Minister.
The former, I, Kwon Yool. The latter, you, Nam Da Jung.
From now on, I'll personally read this book to you.
Is it all right if I like you, Ms. Nam Da Jung?
This hand.
I promise to never let it go.
Prime Minister.
Director Kang, you're leaving late today.
Were you waiting for me right now?
As Chief Park's assistant, do you have that much time on your hands?
Of course not. I turned in my resignation today.
Why?
Are you going to follow the Prime Minister again?
No. I'm going to follow my own path now.
Wow, I think I have to buy you a celebratory drink.
As usual, you're quite clever.
I heard the Prime Minister was alone at the residence
so I came to ask him to have a drink together.
I don't think we can do that.
What do you mean? Why not?
I think there might be another guest that the Prime Minister is already seeing.
I really hope that person is here.
This is your last night at the residence, how do you feel?
I'm not sure.
I don't know anything about that.
It still doesn't feel real yet.
That I'll be leaving this place tomorrow.
I feel the same way.
It was a short time, but there were a lot of things that happened.
While I was with you...
I learned a lot.
The things that I've forgotten, the things that I thought were meaningless.
To know what's really precious to me.
It was a time for me to realize all that.
So...
I don't regret the times that I have had here.
I'm planning to go on a trip.
Do you...
have to go?
If... we're destined to meet each other again.
If we're able to have a sincere beginning...
Then I'll be the one to hold your hand.
So until then, you have to be well, okay?
It was a short time, but...
I was happy to be able to share that with you, Prime Minister.
Then...
I'll be on my way.
- Thank you for your hard work. - Goodbye, sir.
- You worked hard. - You too, sir.
Good job.
- She's here! - She's here!
Seo Hye Joo is here!
- A word please! - Ma'am, over here!
Among all the congressmen, the ruling party picked you as their number one choice.
Do you plan on joining the party?
I have no plans on joining at all.
Right now, I plan on forming a new party.
Are you possibly thinking of running for president then?
You are so pitiful, Reporter Byun! Do you really call that a question right now?
Have you ever seen a newly elected congressman, run for the presidency?
Move!
Have you made your decision now?
If you decided then you should run for the presidency.
The presidency isn't necessarily my goal.
I want to be the platform for the people that share the same values as me.
- Joon Ki... you're going to help me, right? - You tried to reform the plutocrats.
What are you thinking? I'm the son-in-law of Myung Shim Group.
Don't you know how scary my father-in-law is?
I will never help you!
Blatantly.
Secretly.
I'll help you secretly.
Thanks.
Hey, but even if you do get elected, I'm worried.
What are you to do? You don't even have a first lady.
You're just worried about all sorts of things. I haven't even started yet.
So why didn't you try to work things out with Na Young?
Na Young's been taken by Kang Soo Ho.
And you don't know where Nam Da Jung is.
Honey!
Honey, I'm so tired!
What's so hard about watching a child? Let me see her.
Let's see here. Peek-a-boo.
Na Young is coming to see the kids. Why don't we have a meal together?
No. I have somewhere I need to be today.
The exciting adventures of the pastry frog?
Hey, you even read these kinds of books?
You've really decided to become a good father, haven't you?
Take good care of the kids for me.
So basically you've invested your whole fortune just to write this childish book
and travel all over the world?
Editor! How can you say it's childish when you haven't even read it yet?
Seriously! Da Jung, from the looks of it
I think this is going to be the next Harry Potter book of Korea!
I came to promote the book and it's also the anniversary of my dad's passing.
Anyway, we have an interview to do. We'll be right back so just wait for a moment.
We need to go out for a drink, don't you think?
- Sure. - Wait! Don't go anywhere, okay?
Nothing has changed at all.
Have you been well?
I've come to get you.
[Nam Yoo Shik]
[My daughter, Nam Da Jung]
[Da Jung's Official Diary]
To my beloved daughter, Da Jung.
Da Jung.
My loving daughter, Da Jung.
If I carefully think about it.
What I really hoped for, was not for you to get married.
What I really wanted...
was for you to smile brightly.
And for you to be happy.
Da Jung, be happy.
With son-in-law Kwon, whom you love so much.
Your beginning may not have been love, but
ultimately, I believe that it will end in love.
Dad, I'm here.
I finally read the letter you wrote to me.
Dad, I wrote a book.
I brought it so I could show you.
Aren't you proud of your daughter?
[The Exciting Adventures of the Pastry Frog]
Yes.
I understand.
Yes.
Report Byun just called. Due to the road conditions, he said he will be a little late.
Won't that setback the next interview?
So, I asked the next interviewer to come first.
Sounds good. I just have to wait here, right?
Yes. I'll check to see where the person is right now.
I hope your time will continue to go on without stopping.
Forever.
Prime Minister.
No. I guess I should call you Candidate Kwon now.
Hello.
My name is Nam Da Jung. The author who wrote 'The Exciting Adventures of the Pastry Frog'.
I'm thinking of writing about the person who has been the Prime Minister at one point.
I was wondering if you would let me interview you.
What is the title of that book?
The title of my new book is 'The Prime Minister and I'.
Is the lead character of that book, the Prime Minister or me?
Don't you think it would be both?
It sounds fun.
Then, how long will the interview take?
You're not possibly thinking of giving me only ten minutes, are you?
You're going to help me, right?
I'll help you.
But I'm not sure how helpful I will be.
Thank you.
Then let me introduce myself again.
My name...
is Nam Da Jung.
My name is Kwon Yool.
Now, shall we start then?
