Be Strong, Geum-soon
I am not lonely, because I have a dream
And I won't give up
< Episode 87 >
She's working so hard.
I'm sure she was until Shi-wan came for her.
Shall I call her?
Don't do that. Let's go.
Go where? Don't you want to see her office?
It looks quite impressive.
Mrs. Sohn! Jung-shim!
Gosh, I'm tired.
We went that far.
Why couldn't you just have a good time?
I'm hungry, cook dinner.
Who's that?
Where should we put it?
Somewhere near the waterpipes.
- Right? - You're right.
Take that cabinet out.
Help them with it.
No need. We'll take care of everything.
Our president told us to take extra special care.
Ms. Ha is a very important client.
- Is she? - Yes.
Our president speaks very highly of her.
He knew she's smart and hard-working...
He didn't think she'd move in with her in-laws.
Women these days don't want to do that.
Aren't you proud?
Ms. Ha's a great catch.
Of course, I'm sure you and your son deserve...
- It goes over there? - Good.
- Get to work. - Please do.
Sure.
What happened? She could've died!
I wasn't sure. Her stomach was soft.
When will you get a grip? You should know better!
I'm sorry.
Stay at her side and report back every hour.
Yes, sir. I'm sorry.
Did you send the application form?
Yes, sir. For an opening on the 25th.
What day?
- The 25th. - You moron!
Can't you guys give me a break?
You should know the schedule. The seminar ends on the 23rd, remember?
I'm sorry, I forgot. I'll resend the application.
Is Dr. Jang's schedule out?
Yes.
Come on in.
Who are you?
I'm Noh Tae-wan. Geum-soon is my sister-in-law.
So I'm her brother-in-law. Do you know why I'm here?
Do you know or not?
Why don't you just get to the point?
What?
Hey!
If I came here as soon as I'd heard...
I might have hurt you really badly.
But you're lucky that I had some time to cool down.
Step back.
- Step back! - You asked her...!
To donate her kidney in return for her uncle's release?
How could you?
Where are your morals?!
She left Geum-soon to get remarried.
She shouldn't have showed up now.
Even if she dies of her illness.
Geum-soon thought her mother had died.
I'm warning you. Don't ever see her again.
I wanted to yell in the lobby and tell everyone what you'd done.
But I didn't because your wife is Geum-soon's mother.
Don't ever show up again.
If I find out you even called her, I'll make sure I ruin your life.
Do you get me?
I hope you do.
Goodbye.
You asked her...!
To donate her kidney in return for her uncle's release?
She shouldn't have showed up now.
Even if she dies of her illness.
Geum-soon thought her mother had died.
Please give me Dr. Jang's address.
What for?
It's a private matter.
I can'tjust give out his address.
I want to meet his wife.
What for?
Please.
Tell me what it's about.
Please.
I'm begging you. I can't tell you what it's for.
It's good to see you smile for a change.
You look much better too.
I'm working out. It's true.
Come closer.
Geum-ah's seeing someone.
Geum-ah? She is not.
I'm telling you, she is. I think they kissed too.
Geum-ah? No way.
I'm sure of it.
The scab on her lip looked just like the one you had when we first kissed.
She's dating a guy when you're in jail?
She must take after you.
We had our first kiss when your father was in the hospital.
Gosh...
Why isn't anyone calling?
Did Geum-ah get thatjob or not?
- And where is Soon-ja...? - I'm home.
- There you are. - Hi.
You're late. Why didn't you call?
Sorry. I couldn't find a pay phone.
Welcome home.
How do you feel? Better?
Yes.
You've lost weight.
Your face is half the size it used to be.
Don't do this, you're scaring me.
Sorry. I'm scaring myself too.
Did Geum-ah call you? She said she got a job.
What?
It's nearly final. She went to check.
She did?
Don't even try.
I've been calling both Geum-ah and Geum-soon.
Neither would answer her phone.
I see.
She failed again. Or she'd have called.
I guess you're right.
But why won't Geum-soon answer her phone?
It's been 2 whole days. Sometimes her phone's turned off.
She must be busy.
I know, but wouldn't she call to ask how her uncle is doing?
You know her in-laws' number. Let's give them a call.
She won't be home yet.
You're right, she won't.
You think something happened?
Of course not. She'll be fine.
OK.
I cooked dinner. You go change while I set the table.
No, I'll do it.
You just got back from the hospital.
No, you sit down. I can't make you set the table.
OK then.
Soon-ja.
I've been thinking for the past few days.
I guess I should thank you.
(Noh Tae-wan)
(Na Geum-ah)
You have reached the voicemail of...
So you're avoiding me, huh?
Hello.
I'm Geum-ah, Na Sang-do's daughter.
Not you again. Forget it. I won't withdraw the lawsuit.
It's not about that...
- Hello? - Mom, it's me.
Where are you? Why didn't you answer your phone?
- Is it Geum-ah? - Yes.
What?
Is that true?
What's true?
This time, I'll talk.
Go ahead.
Case #1. A kindergarten teacher.
Her in-laws visited her home once.
She allocated everyone a seat saying...
''Sir, you sit here.''
''Ma'am, wash your hands first.''
''Well done, clap your hands.''
Case #2.
My friend's wife asked her 10-year-old daughter.
''Am I pretty or not?'' By the way, she's not that pretty.
Guess what the girl said after a short pause.
''You're cute.''
What's your point?
Even a 10-year-old knows a white lie can work wonders.
Tae-wan wore my shirt and that upset and shocked you.
I know how you felt.
But did you have to embarrass him that much?
In front of my parents?
And do you know you sometimes treat us like employees?
- No, I don't. - You do.
I love you because you're decisive and direct.
I really do.
But don't go, ''Well done, clap your hands'' on us.
And if you come out strong and knock everyone to the ground...
who do you think gets the blame?
Well?
Say something, Ms. Ha.
I love you.
What?
That's what you said when you were at a loss for words.
I'm serious. I'm notjoking.
OK, I'll be more careful.
I'll be careful.
Things were improving until Tae-wan ruined it for me.
Let it go. I'll be careful.
You promise?
Yes.
I feel bad.
Why?
You saying that with a straight face made me feel guilty.
It's OKwhen you're with someone you love.
Oh, please.
You just said you love me.
Just eat.
You want to watch a movie after this?
I have to work. I'm busy this week.
Jeez.
Don't laugh.
It's beautiful.
Jae-hee bought all this for you?
I don't know if I should be happy or not.
I'm sure he wanted to buy these for someone else.
It can't be.
I wish it weren't so.
I know he'll come to me when he's over her.
But I might die of envy before he does.
It's killing me.
But what makes it worse is the fact that I don't even know her.
I wish I knew what she looked like.
Who did Jae-hee fall for in such a short while?
I wish I knew her too.
She's breaking my daughter's heart.
But seeing her will make it even harder.
You think?
Yes.
Put it on. You'll look great in it.
(Searching for ''Crazyhair'')
You're late.
Wait.
I have something to say.
Say it.
I'm sorry I...
threw the note at you.
I'm sorry. I apologize for insulting your family.
OK.
Thanks.
Are you going home?
Yes.
OK.
You want to have a drink?
No thanks.
Bye. See you.
Wait.
You want a lift?
No. I live nearby.
Geum-soon.
You're late. Are you always this late?
Just today. Why are you here?
To see you. Why is your phone off?
The battery's dead.
I got a job today.
Really?
That's great. Congratulations.
I can't believe it. I got the news today.
It's quite a big company, and the pay's good too.
That's great. Congratulations.
My dad won't have to be in jail for that long.
How come?
I met one of the creditors.
I told him I'd wire him my pay and begged him to let my dad off.
He'll reduce the debt by $30,000.
Is that true?
Yes. My dad won't be in jail for that long.
That's great news. Congratulations. You did great.
By the way...
Is Tae-wan busy?
You're surprised? He told me to call him that.
He's fine with it.
Ah...
We nearly worked at the same cafe. And we met a few times.
- So we're friends. - Oh...
But he must be busy.
He won't answer my calls. I need to ask him something.
You do?
You think he's at home?
I don't know.
It's late, I should go. Tell him to call me.
Sure.
See you. Give him my message.
Bye.
Geum-soon.
You're late.
- Good evening. - Hi.
- Let's go inside. - Sure.
I'm home.
- I'm home. - You're late.
- You had dinner? - Yes.
Where's Sung-ran?
She's busy. She'll be late this whole week.
Really?
Why are you late?
I left work late.
You should've called. You forgot how to use a phone?
You want us to baby-sit? Because we don't have a life?
Say something.
What about that preschool?
You're always late and you never even call.
Only for a few days.
I came home late the past 3 days.
I told you I'd visit a preschool this weekend.
I'm not doing this on purpose.
Look at you, turning against me.
I'm not turning against you. I'm just talking.
Will my heart still be the same?
Will you stay with me?
I pray even time will change nothing
Will your heart still be the same?
Will you stay with me?
