Episode 10
Coffee...
Open it and look.
There's no need for you to explain.
But why were these pictures sent to my place?
I'm really sorry.
My daughter has just turned twenty.
I had only went shopping with her for a while. Nothing happened at all.
From now on, don't look for Da Mi unless it's for official business.
And don't give her any gifts either. Don't do anything that would allow others to misunderstand.
I hope that you'll be able to do that much.
Do you still remember the promise you gave me?
You say that you will look out for Da Mi and protect her.
I have never forgotten my promise.
I think that these pictures were sent over by Ho Sung Group from your side.
The ones in the internet as well.
You don't need to worry about that.
It's just used to give more pressure to our side.
The news didn't circulate from there.
Chairman Ha, please don't get Da Mi involved in your personal matters.
Yes...
If something like this ever happens again...
I won't just allow it to end easily.
Do you want me to call the driver to accompany you back?
That's not something you should be bothering about.
Wait, let's stay here for a while...
Yes...
Hey, Director Yoo.
- Have you been waiting long? - No, I just came.
Don’t ask me about the results, it’s quite embarrassing.
Mr. Yoon has been practicing really hard for awhile.
I'm making some progress.
Really...
Please wait a moment.
Hi, Chairman Ha...
Say your greetings. This is Director Yoo Keon Hee.
He's a very famous enterpriser in Japan.
This is Chairman Ha of Da Il movies firm.
He's the son of the boss.
Hello, I'm Ha In Chan.
I am really happy to have met you. I'm Yoo Keon Hee.
You will be a great help to each other in the future now that you know each other.
Aren't everyone here doing very well with their own enterprises?
You praise me too much.
I'll leave both of you to talk first.
Okay, let's meet again next time.
Chairman Ha, let's meet again next time.
He's a really capable and smart friend.
In fact, he is really popular as well.
He does great no matter what he does.
His relations with women is the same as well.
That novelist, Lee Kang Ae who is very popular lately.
He seems to be involved as well with her daughter.
And I also heard that he's calling off his wedding because of her.
Incidents like these happens so often in his family.
The son follows the dad.
Because of Director Ha, Chairman Ha's mom passed away really early.
Did you went to see the Chairman?
That's right.
Mom, why did you do it?
It's because I'm your mom.
Didn't I say that it's my own feelings?
Don't poke your fingers into it.
What did you say to him?
I told him not to see you.
Is it because that's what you want?
Don't you also have lots of other good friends? So why must it be Chairman Ha?
Until when do you want mom to be worried for you?
It has nothing to do with you. So don't bother.
That person won't see you.
He's the person I like.
I like him.
Didn't I tell you that he doesn't like you?!
Am I going to give up just because the other party doesn't like me?
Just treat it like nothing happened and take my heart back as I wish?
It can't be called love if it was that easy.
Comparing to Mom, I understand Dad even more. I understand him a hundred times more.
[Ha In Chan]
Chairman called me up and told me that I can get off work.
- But I'm here. - I already told him.
He just said that he knows.
Hello...
I'm Yoo Keon Hee, the person that Chairman Kim Ho Yong introduced to you just now.
Oh, is there anything?
There's something that I have talk with you about in person.
Okay, let's meet at that time.
Hey, didn't I tell you that the pitch is low here? So why are you always singing it so high?
Start again from the beginning.
Yeo Jin...
Oppa...
Are you singing well?
It's not something that will show results in such a short period either.
Don't darken your face.
So I said that it's not something anyone can do too.
Love will make people become more prettier.
One-sided love will make people bad tempered.
Has my temper become bad?
Isn't Oppa good enough?
Who do you have your eyes on?
Thanks, Oppa...
Tasty...
You are Yoo Da Mi Unni, right?
What to do?
- Can you sign for me? - Really, it's Unni...
- Unni, sign please... - Unni, you are really pretty...
Thanks...
Yes...
Hey, are you alright?
That's so dangerous!
What are you going to do if you get hurt?!
Let's meet next time.
Hey, what are you doing?
Aren't you grateful at all?
How can you just walk away like this?
He's just standing like that over there.
What am I to do if he gets hurt?
Why is he treating me so good?
I can understand why you won't accept him.
I could use dirty words to scold you, but still, I just can't understand you.
Then, why are bothering?
But still, how can you just walk off like that?
Are you going to reject his love in that way?
How will his feelings be?
Won't he be feeling insecure and sad?
I'll be feeling really bad if he gets hit for real.
I know that Oppa is a really good person.
But it's another person that you love.
Please stop it.
I'm hurt.
How good will it be if you can't be clear of your own directions.
Why are you always so mixed up?
Mom, let's talk.
I hope that you won't be poking your fingers into my matters, no matter who it is I like in the future.
Mom, please differentiate clearly between your own feelings and the reality of the situation.
Your daughter has not done anything wrong.
Is there more you want to say?
That's all, as long as you agree to do as I asked.
Are you implying that I shouldn't care about your love life?
Okay, I agree.
But, only on the condition that you choose someone who is good for you.
How well do you know Chairman Ha?
Do you only know what you see; his gentlemanly behavior and honeyed words when he's with you?
Do you know how hateful is it of you to be talking bad about a person when you don't fully understand the situation?
I only believe what I have seen.
Hey, that's enough. Don't say anymore and go out.
Mom has never thought of other people's feelings but your own.
Novelist Lee Kang Ae...
Your daughter is really well-behaved, even the television broadcasted it like that.
In the end, she chose to become an actress instead of going to the university.
She began dating so early, and who is the person she's seeing?
You're worried about people saying stuff like that, aren't you?
If things don't change, I'll...
I'll move out from this house.
Da Mi...
How can you say such things to your mom? Are you crazy?
Don't worry, Mom's alright.
If it were my mom, she would have already gone up to pack my luggage and call out my dad to help her.
Why can't you just listen to your mom's words?
It's not for my sake, she's only thinking of herself.
Honey...
Aren't you even aware when someone enters? What are you thinking about?
Rice?
Didn't I call to tell you to have dinner without me?
You still haven't eaten?
I have already eaten.
If I waited for you without eating. You will nagging non-stop at me.
That's good, but is there anything wrong with you?
What?
You looked like you have lots of things on your mind.
It looks like that I'm not a really good mom.
I just scolded Da Mi because she was really stubborn just now.
And then she went to sleep crying.
And so you are feeling frustrated about it?
Yes...
You are only harsh on her because you have reason to be so.
Right...
You are angry because you have reason to be so.
That's for sure.
Then, what are you frustrated about? I'm on your side too.
Mom! Nuna!
Oh my, why are you in such a hurry? You're going to make a mess of the house.
Mom, Da Mi...
Da Mi is in big trouble...
Why?
I don't know.
[Movie actress, Yoo Da Mi and 'H' production company chairman's dating history...]
Hey, you are now...
You... You saw it as well?
What exactly is she doing?!
And there's more to the story... Sin Ae said that...
The woman who had slapped Da Mi was Chairman Ha's fiancée.
What?
I thought that she must have been mistaken at first.
To have hit her in a place where there were so many people around.
I'm Yoo Da Mi's father.
Come, please sit down.
To have a meeting with you so suddenly...
It's alright.
Please go on with what want to say.
What's the relationship between you and our Da Mi?
Although I don't know what you may have heard...
You should know that there is nothing for you to be worried about.
She sent a letter to me not long ago, saying that she wants to resume her studies again.
I also know that it's what the child's mom wants as well.
Once my daughter finishes filming the movie, please put an end to it and cut all ties between you two.
Have you asked Da Mi for her say in this?
This is the thinking from the side of a father.
Since separating from her when she was eight, you've never met with Da Mi again have you?
So, do you really know what her character is like now?
The things she likes... The things she thinks about...
How she has lived...
Though you may have your reasons, but it's hard for me to understand.
And for such a long time...
Chairman Ha...
If you are not standing in my place...
You will never understand.
Certainly, you can never understand.
Sorry...
The call is from Professor Lee Kang Ae.
Hello...
Yes, it's me...
Exactly how does Chairman Ha plan to settle things?
Where are you?
I know. Yes...
It looks like it's Professor Lee's turn now.
Please don't tell anyone about our meeting and keep it a secret.
Okay...
Yoo Da Mi can end it anytime she wants.
We won't be forcing anything of her.
I got it...
I am really sorry to have brought inconvenience to you.
But you can believe in that daughter of yours.
You don't have any personal feeling for that child?
Of course not...
Then, what about the wedding that you had called off?
That has nothing to do with Da Mi.
- You must be really tired. - I'm alright.
You look really tired.
Do it well...
How do you settle things actually?!
Didn't you say that there will be nothing at all? So why did you allow my child be the topic of others?
Sorry, Professor Lee...
Chairman Ha, did you know that your fiancée slapped my child?
Sorry...
Please cancel the filming of the movie right now.
I won't let Da Mi be an actress anymore. It'll be until today.
Professor Lee...
The one who ruined the contract wasn't me but you.
I saw the rumors between you and Da Mi circulating like hot cakes on the internet.
Are you normally like this?
What are you talking about?
Do you always try to control your daughter within the palms of your hands?
I understand what Da Mi needs the most.
How can you be so sure that what you think is correct?
Although you may understand lots of women...
But I don't think that it includes my daughter as well.
Someone like you who is surrounded by praises at work...
Yet you allow Da Mi to be hurt like this.
I finally understand why Da Mi is always feeling so tired.
Don't let your imagination run wild.
How much does Chairman Ha knows about my daughter?
I don't understand the other things, but...
The child never having her parents by her side when she needs them.
She's always pretending that she's alright in front her parents and others.
Pretending not to have taken it to heart and making it appear like she's happy.
This much I can at least understand.
Professor, you cannot decide your daughter's life for her.
Don't you talk big to me.
Da Mi can't carry on like this.
Did he listen to you?
Da Mi is Da Mi... But you will get sick if you carry on like this.
You still haven't eaten anything, right?
I don't want to eat.
Hey, children will only be sensible when they learn how to on their own.
And also, you'll only be able to get Da Mi back when you have the strength to do so.
Let's go out for a walk to inhale some fresh air.
And eat something as well.
We can't change our fate no matter what we do.
Just think about it when we were young.
Were we able to listen to our parents' words?
This is great.
Am I that sort of mom that does things as I please?
I have never seen a mom that does things as she pleases.
Those people who haven't raised a child will never understand.
Just let them try raising one.
Those people who hasn't done it before, only knows how to talk big.
Last time, I...
Do you still remember that potato stew?
Eating someone else's stew...
I thought I could make it the same way even with my eyes closed, but in the end, it looked like porridge.
After saying that... I made a big pot full of it and it took me about a week to finish it all.
You wouldn't believe how many bowls I fed to Shin Beom.
Now, whenever he hears about stew, he would grunt.
Hey, let's go.
Let's walk up a little more.
You are not coming?
I feel so painful, I can't walk anymore.
What's wrong?
Where are you hurting?
You can only eat porridge for the next few days, and remember to take your medicine on time daily.
I'll take out the needle according to your condition tomorrow.
And remember to drink more Pu-erh tea.
Is it gastric?
Yes...
Sorry...
Don't just say that you are sorry.
It's better for you to do a complete check up.
Next time...
Don't always push it to next time.
Do you still think she's a teenager?
It could be a serious illness if you are feeling pain here and there.
You can be middle-aged.
I'm still an young teenager.
Do you still feel that your stomach is twisting?
It's fine.
To be seeing you here right now.
It is also a war fighting with your strength. You must pay more attention to your body.
Don't just forget about it. Go get a check-up right away.
Okay...
Hey, leave after you eat.
This should be great for sure.
There's not much taste although it may look good.
But...
What?
Are you still single?
Why do I get the feeling that you are getting plumper?
Is this fat or is it swollen?
Swollen...
So, is something bothering Kang Ae?
There has been lots of things happening in her home lately.
Da Mi...
It seems like that child is out to create trouble the moment she wakes up.
Da Mi?
There's nothing to envy about even if her studies are good.
She's really made a waste of her abilities.
You don't know how depressed Kang Ae is.
Is that so?
Hey, don't you ever go on the internet?
You don't see the news either?
I thought that they were only talking about it.
It's really not something just anyone can do either.
Filming the same thing over and over again.
Luckily it's just a hand phone advertisement.
If it was a noodles advertisement, just how much would you have had to eat?
That's right...
After your ad filming...
Won't there be a period of time that you won't want to see that phone again?
That's right...
Yeong Chan Oppa haven't been in contact with us lately for a really long time.
You are back already?
There's nothing, right?
The production team is already prepared.
What about the documents?
Those have been prepared as well.
How long have you been waiting for me?
Just wait outside next time.
What's wrong?
I filmed an ad today.
A hand-phone Ad.
Next time, director Kim..
It's alright for you to just discuss these things with director Kim.
Yes...
And also, I want to pay a visit to your mom as well.
How about if we end things here right now?
Oppa!
Where's Da Mi?
She's in the chairman's office.
Although this still needs to be decided by you...
Consider the filming of this movie as being your last work.
I think it would be best for us to end it here.
I don't feel that this is the right path for you.
Sorry...
What I thought was wrong.
I like a person that has passion towards their own matters.
Because of parental rebellions...
And being unable to keep your foot down.
This is really childish.
I'm the one that decided to do this.
I'm still going to do it no matter what people tell me.
Listen to me.
There are lots of parents who let their children down.
But they didn't do it on purpose.
Can't you just be understanding towards this?
Don't distant yourself away from your mom too much.
It will be very hard for you to get close again.
Are you talking about yourself?
Go back and think carefully over what you feel is most important to you.
Then please consider it again.
My head is still intact, right?
Sorry for making you wait so long.
Let's go visit Yeong Chan Oppa's workshop, ok?
Why must we go there?
It's too tiring to go outside with you.
People will crowd around us all the time.
Let's buy lots of tasty food.
Nothing will ever be possible between Yeong Chan Oppa and I.
Don't you know?
- Da Mi... - Don't say it.
I got it, you must have been 'blasted' by someone.
Why are you throwing your temper on me?
So why must you be one-sidedly in love?
Who is it?
Who's that man actually?
The chairman...
Are you satisfied?
Da Mi!
Oppa, just try saying something.
Da Mi says that she likes the chairman.
She seems to be crazy.
The Chairman doesn't even look at her at all.
She's only one-sidedly in love.
Don't you like Da Mi?
Just say it out, just give it a try.
Are you afraid of being rejected?
I'm not afraid of that.
Then what are you afraid of that you don't say anything?
Hey, you must be hungry.
Come quickly.
Is it alright to eat in your workshop?
We are always coming...
Don't say your greetings to me like this.
Just treat this place as yours and do as you please.
Thanks...
Da Mi, let's have a talk.
You must listen to what I have to say.
Da Mi, please try to understand your mom.
Do you know how devastated she is because of what happened today?
Have you also seen what's on the internet?
They are all talking about you.
Do you know how old he is?
It's already fortunate that your mom didn't faint after seeing the news.
She saw it?
Your mom is now resting because of gastric pains.
I waited there for you because I was afraid that you might go and bother her.
Go and tell her that such a thing will never happen again.
Ahjumma...
Listen!
Is your work more important than your mom?
Why is your mom feeling so bad today?
- It was because she went to see your Chairman Ha. - She went to see him?
Mom?
(Da Mi is practicing speaking in Japanese.)
What now?
- Why are you up when you are still unwell? - I'm fine, go back.
What about Da Mi? Did she go and say something to you?
I had a talk with her.
Jeong Seon...
I think I have to quit my job.
Are you serious?
Are you really that ill?
It's not because of that.
Da Mi seems to want to go to her dads.
What?
I didn't know that she has been learning Japanese.
Japanese?
What's so important?
What do things thing matter?
Just let her learn Japanese if she wants to.
Why are you like this over a small matter...
That's not what my instincts tells me.
That's right, it's better for you to finish writing your book. Just end it.
What you decided is right.
I didn't want to see you coming.
That's what I was thinking while I was waiting here.
It wouldn't be good if I were to also appear on the news.
It must be really boring, not to be able to go anywhere.
A little...
But it's okay...
There were lots of times that I wanted to make contact with you.
But I was being very indecisive during that period.
I'm really a fool.
I thought that my heart belong to myself.
Thinking that I had a lot of patience in me.
But that's all wrong.
I don't know what to do either.
I'll think about you a lot when I am feeling sad.
Da Mi...
Say it...
I...
...am here to bid you goodbye.
I want to learn more knowledge about photography.
So I wanted to see you again before I leave.
How long will it take you to come back?
I have no plans.
If I want to...
No...
If I have the confidence to accept things.
Then I'll be back by then.
At that time, you...
...may be an Ahjumma by then.
That long?
Very long...
That's right...
You are really a very good friend.
And I'll be your good friend for the rest of your life.
So that's why I have to leave.
Because of me?
Because of me.
I'm the reason.
Let's hold hands for the last time.
I'm going...
Oppa!
Take care...
You should have worn another layer before going out.
Granny!
I made a call here. Under Lee Kang Ae...
Oh, yes... I know, please have a seat.
Are you that novelist...
It's nice to meet you.
I'm a fan of yours and your daughter's too.
Thank you.
It's so great of you to be traveling with your daughter.
Yes, it's great.
Here...
And please have a pleasant trip.
Is it alright for me to visit you suddenly?
It's fine since there aren't many patients today.
Jeong Seon sent me a message saying that you will be resting.
Yes, I just can't breathe.
You should have said it earlier.
Am I like a fool sometimes?
I'm always saying that I should rest, but instead I just carry on like this.
I don't know why I'm like that.
But didn't you depended on that to buy your meals, house and let Da Mi study as well?
You would have felt insecure and strange if you had quit your job.
Right...
You look like a kid who has just received presents.
Both of us can sleep together and get to eat good food.
And talk together as well.
You must have a good rest.
There's not much time left for Da Mi to be in your embrace.
I know...
Yes, is your stomach feeling better?
Yes, it's ok.
Have a check up first before you go on the tour. Do it just once.
Next time when I come with Jeong Seon.
She and her husband have always done it yearly. But you are not the same.
She's a really healthy married woman.
Let's go.
Didn't you say that you wanted to go shopping? I'll send you.
Am I to put everything in? Put everything in...
Yes...
You are back...
What are you doing?
Making the things you like.
Chicken, fish balls and sea food rice soup.
You know how to do these too?
It should be about the same, I learnt them from the books.
I bought Jeon Bu...
I want to let mom get more nutrients.
Oh, is that so? That's great.
The deep fried ones are just too oily.
Jeong Ja, go cut the Jeon Bu.
Yes...
What's there to be so happy about?
- Do I look happy? - Yes...
I'll tell you later.
I don't know how busy is she.
That girl doesn't even lay her eyes on me.
- I'm going to eat. - Eat more, my son...
Mom, don't hit my bottoms from now on.
How old am I already?
Really...
Mom, when are you going to write your next novel?
Your mom says that she wants to rest.
Until when?
As I please...
Is that so?
Then just go do what you want to do.
Go on a trip with Ahjumma.
I wanted to do so too without your mentioning.
I'm going to Japan tomorrow.
It's the morning flight.
But why are you only saying such a thing right now?
She always like to scare people up suddenly.
How long will you be there?
I don't have plans yet, I'll decide it again when I get there.
But you must tell people these things in advance to get permission first.
I'm sorry...
Are you going there to play?
Of course it's for fun, Mom. That's great, Da Mi.
- Mom, I want to go Japan... - You are so noisy.
Who says that she is going there for fun?
[Butterfly flower]
I'll not give up. I'll continue with it.
What's the rush for it? It's still better for you to slowly consider it.
I'll be taking the script with me.
I'll continue with it, Chairman...
Da Mi's dad, Da Mi said that she will be going there.
Saying that she's going to your place.
Yes, this is the director's office.
Is the director around?
Yes, the director is out-stationed right now.
Do you know when he'll be back?
In about a week's time.
May I know where are you calling from? Do you want me to pass a message?
I'll call back again, thanks.
Yes, you are welcome.
I'm your daughter, I'm Yoo Da Mi.
I've come to find Dad.
I didn't say it out like that.
Since there wasn't any promises nor appointments made to meet.
I wanted to see the look of my dad when he first sees me.
I wanted to hear the words that my dad will say to me at that moment.
What am I actually trying to verify?
No one here knows me.
Actress Yoo Da Mi.
Lee Kang Ae's daughter, Yoo Da Mi.
At a place that I have no relations at all.
- Sheraton Hotel, please. - Yes.
The daughter I was separated from when she was eight came.
Became a twenty year old girl finding me.
Although I felt really happy, I felt my heart breaking at the same time.
Dad...
After 12 years have passed.
When that child called me 'Dad' again.
My heart seems like it's going to jump out.
You are the only one that understands such a feeling of mine at that very second.
I'm sorry that I didn't tell you this beforehand.
You are angry because I never told you about it?
Or is it because that I'm In Chan Hyung's brother?
Oppa...
Kang Ae!
I'm coming in now...
Kids! Sin Ae!
