Loving You a Thousand Times
Episode 7
What is this? Episode 7
What is this?
What's wrong with your stomach?
Honey!
What's happening?
Where did our baby go?
Don't be like this!
All these while, you had been lying?
There was never a baby, but you lied saying that there was?
There is a baby, it is going to be delivered soon.
Don't worry, honey.
Are you crazy? Where on earth is the baby?!
Sae Hun, please I beg you, lower your voice.
The people in the house might be woken up.
If you are not crazy, then what is going on?
Surrogate mother...
Your baby will be delivered by a surrogate mother.
What? What surrogate mother? What does that mean?
Back then, didn't we go to the hospital together?
Honey, I can't bear you a baby.
So, at the time, another person did it.
I am sorry.
I should have told you,
but I was feeling really terrible during that period of time too.
It is also your baby.
Seon Young, you are crazy!
What are you saying now?!
What's happening?
Why is it so noisy?
Honey! Honey!
What is happening between the two of you?
Mother, I cannot forgive you both.
Never!
What happened?
Mother, what should I do?
He knows everything, what should I do?
What?
How... how did he know!
Mother what should I do?
What should I do now, mother.
Don't move.
Director, how did you come here?
Director, are you okay?
Why are you like this?
Little Bluebell,
Mommy will also play with you like that in the future.
Oh yes, we won't be together.
Little Bluebell,
that will be interesting too, right?
You came?
The kimchi you liked from before,
I brought some again.
Why?
Is there any unhappy things going on?
Ahjumma,
what should I do?
Why, what's wrong?
What happened?
Nothing, nothing at all.
Sorry, I will go in to take a rest.
Why? You should tell me what's bothering you.
Yes,
the situation is very tiring.
You can't meet anyone;
you don't even have someone whom you can talk to.
Just bear with it for a while.
There is little time left.
After delivering and giving the baby away,
you can live the life you used to live;
doing whatever you want to do.
Ahjumma!
Didn't I tell you not to mention these things in front of the baby?
This child!
Give it to me; I will hang it for you.
It's fine.
Your wife is taking it hard too. Don't be like this anymore.
It's not like it is anyone else's child. Her efforts were to bear you your baby.
Women want to bear their husbands' children.
Mother really, saying it as if she really is pregnant.
Right now, isn't she using her heart to raise the child?
Child, child, but where is the child?!
It doesn't even exist, how do you prove that it is indeed my child?
If you really can't believe it, won't it be okay if a DNA test is done later?
Mother,
why do you make it sound as if the child is similar to a factory product?
So later just by testing if it is my child or not,
only a DNA test is needed?
What if the results turn out
that it is not matched with my genes, then what will happen to that child?
It is impossible for those kind of things to happen.
Why do you say these impossible things?
Mother, this is a problem which involves the birth of a life.
But you lied to me.
Mother, do you even know what you were doing!?
Why do you think like this!
Although I am really sorry for doing this without your knowledge,
but since things have already happened this way,
why can't you feel relieved and accept reality?
No matter what, it is still your baby!
My baby?
Yes,
if the baby whom Mother is talking about,
is one whose looks
and blood is connected with some woman who doesn't know a thing,
thinking about this, I feel absolutely horrified; so disgusted I can vomit!
[Beloved Wife]
The user you dialed is busy at the moment. Please leave a message after the tone.
It's me, honey.
You can't come home today?
I miss you, honey.
We still have a lot of things to discuss.
I know that you are angry, I also know that I am in the wrong.
So please come back at once.
I beg you, honey.
[Beloved Wife]
It's me.
Where are you?
Company.
Really, are you really at the company?
Why are you at the company at this time?
Did you or didn't you receive my message?
You seem to have drank a lot, hurry on to bed.
Don't you think you are going overboard?
Who is happy that things are like this?
Because of you, because of everyone, there was only one option.
But, it's not anyone else, but you who is treating me like this.
What are you... who are you to treat me like this!
I am with other people right now; I'm hanging up.
[Big sized uncle]
Yes, it's me.
Hello?
It's me. This is Kang Ho's grandma.
Oh, hello!
Did I call too late at night?
No, but why did you call suddenly?
In this television series which is about to end,
the hero's mother likes to eat fried green bean sprouts so much.
Last time your mother made them so delicious!
So I suddenly thought of calling you.
Yes, my mother really made them frequently.
Ah! Shall I make some and bring it over to you tomorrow?
Yes, come over.
These few days nobody accompanies me; it gets boring.
Yes, I'll see you tomorrow!
Alright, tomorrow I'll go together with Nan Jung.
I am getting old too. Aigoo, really!
How could I fall asleep while watching a series?
Aigoo, really.
Why are even the men so late today?
Who is it this time? Could it be that she had forgotten something?
Hello?
Omo, is it Eun Nim?
Dad is not back yet?
Where did he go?
I don't know. He said that he was going to meet a friend, but he has not returned yet.
Is dad healthy?
Yes. Now his body is as good as before he got sick.
Really?
But when are you coming home?
It's been almost a year!
This, I am not too sure.
It should be around one more month I think.
If I do come back, I'll call you.
Mom, I'll call again. I'm hanging up.
Dad.
[Unknown number.]
Could it be Eun Nim?
Hello?
Dad!
Yes, Eun Nim, it's dad!
Have you been well?
Yes, what about you, dad?
Yes, everything is well here.
It is really a relief that you are healthy.
Dad!
Eun Nim?
Dad, you are on the phone with Eun Nim now?
Eun Nim?
Oh, Dad, I couldn't hear anything all of a sudden.
Hey! When are you coming back?
Tell her that I will be back very soon.
Dad, I'll hang up now.
Dad, you must stay healthy.
Yes, you must stay healthy too!
Dad, when is Eun Nim coming back?
She'll be back very soon.
One year has passed so quickly, it seems like she only left recently.
She's going to be back soon.
Yes, she'll come back very soon.
Dad, what should I do?
What should we do, Dad...
Hey, Mary. Hey, Susan.
Hey, Kang Ho!
What's up Alex!
You're going to class?
Of course.
Hello?
Grandmother?
Call from Korea?
Yeah.
- Go ahead and talk, I'm gonna go ahead to class. - Okay.
Grandmother, everything's fine at home, right?
Of course, I miss Grandmother too.
It's not that I didn't call on purpose.
I am busy with my studies, so I couldn't call.
Oh yes, Sister-in-law hasn't given birth yet?
There's still half a month left.
But because it is the first born, it might be late.
You can really come back for that?
Will time allow it?
I got it, okay, your parents are with me;
speak a little to them.
I know. I'll hang up.
Please call more often, this child.
Why did he hung up?
He has to attend classes immediately, so he had to hang up.
He said that he'll call later.
It looks like he is quite serious about his studies this time.
Of course, last time it's just that he didn't do his classwork.
Our Kang Ho can do well if he wants to! He's also smarter than Sae Hun.
I'm back.
You're only back now.
Drink a cup of tea before going up.
Yes.
About your wife, I'm worried sick about her.
Shouldn't you bring her back already?
She's about to deliver.
She still feels that Jeju is more comfortable.
But still, she has to be taken cared of here.
Jeju island has many good hospitals too.
So what you mean is to let her stay on?
Just like what mother said, she has no relatives over there.
Leaving her alone in Jeju is really not possible.
I will discuss this with Seon Young.
I got.
So, this time when you go to Jeju, bring me along with you.
Mother, it's too tiring; it can't be done.
No, just take it as sight-seeing. What's so tiring about that?
It's just an hour-long ride in the airplane too.
Although this is what you think,
but if you go, Daughter-in-law will find it uncomfortable and she'll feel burdened.
It's not as if I'm asking you to carry me on your back and go.
I'll go there on my own two feet.
Why do you always object like this?
What reason is there to object to my going to Jeju?
Using the car to get there is fine too. Why get so worked-up?
Please go, go.
- Do you want me to accompany you there? - Aigoo, I'm not going. I'm not going.
Blame it on me.
Unni, what happened?
Aigoo, what happened?
I don't know. I think I have a headache.
That's why I told you to get some exercise.
That's what you get from writing drama scripts day and night.
Aish, really. My eardrums are vibrating that they are about to burst, stupid girl.
Unni, wait for a while, I'll cook porridge for you.
No, get some concentration.
Concentration.
Unni, drink this first.
I put honey in there, it's very refreshing.
Unni, let's not do this.
Go with me to the hospital to get an injection.
You will feel much better after the injection.
Fool, the drama is about to end.
Where can I find time to get an injection?
If I had the time, I might as well write one more sentence.
Really... I who's a bystander is bleeding so heavily for you.
If anyone wants you to do a drama again,
I will prevent it.
Who are you calling? Chul?
Chul is in America. It is now his sleeping time.
I'm calling to see how Seon Young is doing.
A child with bad fortune;
all that time she wasn't pregnant,
but suddenly at this point of time she bears a child.
Yea...
If not for Unni, I would definitely have gone to Jeju to care for her.
Because of you, I couldn't go.
Hello? Seon Young?
Yes, Mother.
How have you been?
Everything's fine, right?
I am good. How about you, Mother?
Mother is healthy, right?
What can be wrong with me?
Oh yes, your pre-birth period won't be for much longer.
Shouldn't you be returning to Seoul already?
I'll see.
I am preparing to return.
You might give birth prematurely,
so come back as soon as possible.
I know.
I will be with Sae Hun, so Mother write your drama script in peace.
If your unborn child can wait a little longer;
wait until I have completed my script before being born; how good would that be?
Yeah.
Anyhow take care of yourself. Come back immediately, okay?
I know. Mother don't worry,
if something happens, I will call you.
How have you been living alone?
Didn't Mother say that despite me living alone,
I have to still pretend to be pregnant?
Yes, you did well.
Is Sae Hun still like that?
Even if he isn't, there is still a lot to worry about.
But with even him being like this, it worries me.
I am so miserable I can't live anymore.
Your Grandmother-in-law keeps saying that it's a worry leaving you in Jeju all alone.
When will the child be born?
Only when it is born will everything be calm.
Really!
Yes...
There is a solution.
Why did I not think of it?
Hello, Chairman Lee.
I want to meet you now.
Now?
Today the surrogate mother is going to the hospital. I am getting ready to leave.
That's nice. We shall meet on the way.
Yes. That will do.
I will be back later.
Mother, what is it?
It's nothing. You don't need to worry.
You just need to continue your current act.
Hello, Madam.
Yes, hello.
You can just call me if you need to talk.
Is anything the matter?
Well... there is something I want to discuss with you.
What is it? You can discuss anything with me.
The surrogate mother and child are fine, aren't they?
Of course. During the previous month's visit to the hospital,
the result showed the mother and baby were both very healthy.
The baby is very strong!
Can't it be done sooner?
Isn't a child naturally born from a womb?
My family is a little bit in a hurry.
Madam, you really are too much in a hurry.
That isn't really up to us is it?
It is all up to the baby.
Isn't there a method called caesarean section?
What? What are you saying?
Caesarean section?
Don't many pregnant women use that method?
That isn't it, Madam!
Why are you raising your voice...
Even if it's just once, looking at this from another perspective,
how can you say something like this?
I have been diligently obeying your request to keep this secret.
In fact, very carefully.
I mean... how is this related in any way?
You wanted to keep this secret,
because you didn't want the secret behind the child's birth to cause trouble, isn't that right?
Right now a teenage girl is carrying the baby for you.
Because of how the times have changed,
a teenage girl got pregnant;
but did she do so because she genuinely wanted to?
It was because she urgently needed money, and had no choice.
Imagine that if there is
a permanent scar on her belly, what would become of her future?
Without this scar,
maybe she would meet a good guy,
and settle down well.
You could've just said no.
Why did you have to blabber on?
Also, although this might not be appropriate,
but since she's now a surrogate, yet continues to want to marry well like other girls;
doesn't she lack a conscience?
You can't even understand this.
I'm going.
How can there be such a person?
How is it, doctor?
The fetus is very healthy.
Can you hear this?
That is it's heartbeat.
Heartbeat?
It's a very strong heartbeat.
Of course, how strong is our Little Bluebell.
You silly, how good is it that the baby is healthy, why cry?
That's true.
Little Bluebell, let us take that bus
and run somewhere no one will recognize us, shall we?
Little Bluebell, answer me, will you?
Mother.
I'm here.
Mother, I'm sorry.
I came here just like this.
I originally didn't intend to come here.
But...
This is the only place I can go.
So...
Grandmother's,
and Dad's I can't go there, can I?
I can't go to Grandmother's, and I can't go to Dad's.
Mother, what should I do?
What about my Little Bluebell?
Mother...
I know I cannot do that,
but I keep thinking about running away with our Little Bluebell.
Mother...
That cannot be done right?
At the mere thought of Little Bluebell and I separating just like that;
it hurts so much.
Mother, how could you abandon the young me and leave?
How could you leave me alone and leave?
Mother... mother how exhausted you must have been.
Mother, poor Mother.
Is this a baby's undergarment too?
Yes, it is a new arrival.
It's so beautiful and cute.
Bag this for me too.
Yes.
Omo... the little baby is so cute! How many months old is he?
He just celebrated his 100th day a few days ago.
He looks just like a baby angel.
How happy you must be.
You should be about to bear a beautiful baby yourself too.
When we get there, remember to ask about the job in passing.
Mother!
Fine! You don't even have any prospects, yet you're so full of pride.
What do you plan to do?!
Anyhow you'll need to ask about the job.
These days, it's difficult to marry when you're jobless.
Mother, who am I?
I'm already asking around. Don't worry.
Really?
Are you really asking around?
I said so!
This time, I'm going to work at a television broadcasting company.
Television broadcasting company?
I heard that getting in is even tougher than reaching the sky.
I'm considering becoming a costume assistant.
So just sit back and wait.
If you're a costume assistant, then you'll dress celebrities; change their clothes and such?
Yes!
Yes, it's good that you are doing this.
What is there to consider? Hmm? Understand?
Silly girl, really...
Oh?
Why?
Isn't that Kang Ho's sister-in-law?
Aigoo... we haven't see her for just a while and her belly has grown so much!
Well... although pregnant, she hasn't gained weight
and is still so beautiful Mother.
Precisely, her belly has ballooned.
Daughter-in-law, where did you go?
Yes, well I have something to do.
Come over and have a sit.
What is she going to say this time?
She's not wanting to go to Jeju again is she? Such a headache.
I'm saying... this time for my birthday...
Yes, Mother.
Looking at dates,
granddaughter-in-law's pre-birth period and my birthday
is fated to be on the same day.
Oh yes, it seems so.
That's why I'm saying,
calling some friends over for a meal and such,
I'm afraid I won't be able to shrug off my inner anxiety.
This time we should bring it forward
and go to a closer destination like Japan with Madam Kang and Madam Hong
for a dip in the hot springs before coming back.
What do you think?
Sure, Mother.
I was about to arrange your holiday plans for you too.
I will inquire at the tour agencies and prepare for your friends as well.
Really? If that is the case, I am so grateful.
Mother you... what is there to be thankful for?
It is my duty.
Well... your friend's daughter who previously visited is here.
Oh really? Hurry let them in.
Hello!
- Hello! - Hurry on in, hurry on in!
Mother I shall return to my room to get changed.
Please excuse me.
Anyhow they are my guests, she should be a little more courteous.
At times she's likeable; to others, she's intolerable.
I have no idea what it is with her; constantly inviting those people over.
Regardless, wonderful.
Delaying time, until the time the child is due.
It's great that she is going on holiday.
I will make a quick trip to the washroom.
Mmm, sure.
I haven't eaten friend green bean sprouts in ages, it is so delicious!
Please have more.
Daughter-in-law, come taste some of these fried green bean sprouts.
Nan Jung's mother made some and brought them over.
It's really delicious; homemade.
It's okay. Have more yourself.
On the way here a while ago, I saw your granddaughter-in-law. Her belly has grown a lot.
What are you saying?
Our daughter-in-law is in Jeju right now.
That's funny.
I seem to have seen her on the way here.
No.
How can someone in Jeju be in Seoul?
Was it not?
I think I really did see her on my way here.
Daughter-in-law, has granddaughter-in-law gone to her mother's home?
No, mother.
I just spoke with her.
It seems your eyesight isn't too good.
Yes, I could have been wrong.
It seems like Kang Ho Oppa's scent still lingers.
Oppa, come back soon.
This wallet is still here.
Where have I seen it before?
What are you doing here?
I just thought of Kang Ho Oppa.
You cannot enter a room without the owner around.
This is basic manners, isn't it?
I'm sorry!
Mother or daughter, why don't they know anything?
Mother wouldn't be suspecting that her granddaughter-in-law is in Seoul would she?
How could clothes be so small?
With this on, how beautiful would you be.
What is it?
Can't you be more endearing when answering my call?
It's been so long.
I am busy right now. I'm going to a meeting.
Is it true that you are going to a meeting?
How can you possibly be busy every time I call you?
Why are you like this? I am not at the company to play.
You weren't like this before.
I can understand how you feel.
I am sorry for doing things behind your back.
But stop before it goes too far, can't you?
If even you are like this, I am so tired.
So what do you want me to do?
Just treat me like you did before, can't you?
Now we have a child don't we?
Our child?
Today when I went to buy the baby's clothes,
I also picked out some shirts and neckties for you.
Me being away like this; I can't care for you so...
Let's have dinner together today.
- I'll wait for you. - I'm not going so don't wait.
When are you going to stop this?
Let go of me!
What are you doing? We're in front of the company.
Why, are you afraid others will see?
Get in!
- Let go of me! - Get in immediately!
Are you out of your mind?
Everyone knows that you are pregnant,
how can you come to the company like this?!
If dad saw, what are you going to do?
You are such a miserable man.
What?
For someone who values other people's opinions so much,
how can you treat me like this?
The more you are afraid of other people's opinions, the more you should be treating me better, shouldn't you?
If I am going down like this, what are you going to do?
Lee Seon Young, what's wrong with you?
I'm the one who should be asking why.
For the sake of birthing you a child,
in the midst of all my troubles I made the crazy decision to opt for surrogacy.
I even acted like I was pregnant in front of everyone.
Who did I do all these for?
How can you treat me like this?
So now you are saying that everything is for my sake?
Is it really like this?
It wasn't for yourself?
Yes, everything I owned,
to protect this family you formed,
caused me to do this!
Don't you wish to protect our family?
Yes, this is the family you wish to protect?
What?
Even without a child, I still trusted you and loved you!
I know.
I know!
Because I know,
because of love,
that's why I wanted to give you a child.
Honey, once we have our baby,
we can have a complete family.
Don't be like this.
Dear, why are you like this?
What should I do for you to forgive me?
Tell me, I'll do anything.
I don't know.
Right now you aren't the person I used to know.
Your words are all lies; they only disappoint me!
You still want to get a divorce even in this situation?
If you want a divorce, I'll agree to anything.
But if we divorce,
are you confident in single-handedly bringing up a child who doesn't even know who his mother is?
You don't have confidence, do you?
Now you can't shrug me off no matter what,
because we have a child between us.
That child is a very special child!
What should I do?
It isn't like this.
it isn't like this!
What should I do?
Director,
Didn't you go to the bar to work today?
I quit my job there,
because the Director told me to quit...
That's right, that's what happened?
You listen to my words well, my little girl.
I am not a little girl.
Shall we live together?
Why, you don't want to?
No.
I like everything as long as the Director likes it.
Mommy, mommy,
go together with me!
Mommy, Mommy, I'm scared!
Mommy, don't abandon me!
I want to go with Mommy.
Little Bluebell, Little Bluebell,
no, no Little Bluebell,
Mommy will not abandon you.
I won't abandon you even if I die.
Let's live together!
What's this? What's with this? What's with this?
What is this? You didn't even leave one
and took everything away what should I do?
You can take the black clover;* it's still here.
(*Similar to a suit in a deck of cards) You can take the black clover;* it's still here.
(*Similar to a suit in a deck of cards)
How did you know I have black clovers?
Ow! Really... Why am I so unlucky?
- Aish! - Aigoo...
- I'm sorry... - Oh gosh...
What should I do... I didn't even earn a single point.
Hurry play a card. After this round I'll be leaving.
Sleep here, it is already late.
Yea... I'll be all alone at home anyway.
What, what. Why are there no points.
Unni, after this month passes, there will be money, right?
Of course, it's less than a month left.
If it's not today, it's tomorrow.
What are you talking about? Today or tomorrow...
Oh, it's me. What's the matter?
Ahjumma.
Why? Your stomach hurts?
Why, why, who's sick?
Unni, is it your daughter who's sick?
Why are you like this?
Ahjumma, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry.
But there's no other choice but to do this.
No, what are you talking about?
What is it about that you keep saying sorry for?
I can't separate myself from the baby.
So do not look for me.
What's that supposed to mean!
You, you, you, you, are you crazy?
Please tell the couple that I will definitely pay the money back no matter what;
and that I'm sorry,
I had no other choice either.
Hey! Where are you?
This girl, this girl is really crazy!
What's going on?
Child, it's okay now.
Don't worry, don't worry.
Hey, Kim Bo Young, Kim Bo Young!
Hey, where are you?
Eun Nim.
Isn't this our Eun Nim?
Aigoo, it is really our Eun Nim.
Grandmother.
When did you come back from China? You didn't even contact us?
Did anything happen to you?
Grandmother.
What happened to you?
Move this bag away.
Aigoo, Eun Nim.
Eun Nim.
So, that money for your dad's operation,
is the money you got from promising to give birth for others, is it?
Grandmother.
And also the money for grandmother to see a dentist? Is that so?
Is that so?
Who asked you to do this, who?
Grandmother.
Aigoo, even if we don't have money,
how can you do this?
How can you appear in front of your grandmother like this?
Grandmother, Grandmother, it's my fault.
Let's just die together! Let's die together!
What's the use of living now?
Grandmother, Grandmother, even if I wish to die now I can't die.
What will happen to the baby? How can we die, grandmother?
Oh heavens, what should we do?
What should we do?
Did I live till today to witness this?
Young Sook.
You must be witnessing this from heaven.
You daughter is in this situation, what are you doing?
Take me away too!
Take me away too, how can I live like this!
Grandmother, grandmother, I'm sorry for breaking your heart.
Grandmother, I didn't want to come here in the first place;
but there is no other place for me to go except here.
There's no one else who will help me other than grandmother.
Grandmother, you have to help me.
I can't live without my baby.
Aigoo, what should I do, what should I do?
All these time, she couldn't tell anyone about matters of her heart.
How much hardship she must have been through.
Poor child.
After creating this big mess,
how will you live in the future? How?
Ahjumma, sorry to bother you, but where is this?
Thank you.
Is anyone home?
Who is this?
Hello, by any chance, is this Go Eun Nim's house?
Yes, but where are you from?
Is Go Eun Nim at home?
No, our Eun Nim is away in China.
What's the matter?
Because our president said that Go Eun Nim can't be reached and asked me to look for her here.
Is it matters related to work?
If she comes back, she'll resume her studies.
Ah, is that so?
I heard that Go Eun Nim has a grandmother.
May I know the address of the grandmother's house?
Is anyone home?
Isn't anyone home?
Who's that?
Is Go Eun Nim's grandmother in?
Where are you from?
You are Go Eun Nim's grandmother, aren't you?
Why aren't you even saying who you are...?
I... I don't know that person!
This is the place without a doubt; why is grandmother telling lies?
That girl is here, isn't she?!
Aigoo, who are you talking about?
Why are you entering my house?
Where did that wretch go?
Grandmother, you know her whereabouts, don't you?
Where did that wretch go!
Grandmother, I bought the medicine...
Eun Nim, hurry go!
Eun Nim, Eun Nim.
Hey, I said stop!
What, contractions?!
My grandson's coming into the world soon?
A son?
It has to be given away no matter what.
After giving it away quickly, forget everything, and start a new life.
My Little Bluebell,
Eun Nim.
Madam, this is your grandson.
There anything in the world more precious than this.
You really gave birth to this baby? How can there be such a striking resemblance?
Mother, I am going now, I am going to my Little Bluebell.
