Today, I will tell you what you don't know about me.
What I don't know about you?
My real name is not Laena.
My real name is Eunhye Jeong.
And the name my parents gave me is...
...Soojeong Yi.
Soojeong Yi?
Usually, they have one name in their lives,
...but I've had three different names.
Every time I changed my name,
...I erased my past I didn't want to be reminded of.
The stories deep in my heart.
I'll tell you everything tonight.
Ms. Jeong,
Is there some reason why you want to tell me such stories?
May I ask what brings you here?
We came from Seoul. Can I see Priest Chongin?
He went into prayer. May I ask what this is regarding?
That's too bad. I owed him a lot in the past.
He'll be back in a few days. Who shall I say came by?
Tell him Soojeong came by.
It's spermatic disorder.
You may have become infertile after having the first child.
Heera.
Jaejoon called to say he'll sup in town with Taesoo.
Really?
Then let's have dinner by ourselves.
What are you looking at so intently?
Oh! The photos of baby Jaejoon.
Why?
Do you have mixed feelings now that he'll get married?
You're browsing the old album.
I know.
It seems like yesterday he couldn't even hold his head up.
Time flies, huh?
Why yes.
I understand your obsession with Jaejoon.
Frankly speaking, Taesoo and you are not on the same page.
Gaps in ages, hobbies, levels of education,
...and even in appearances.
Like Beauty and the Beast.
Had it not been for Jaejoon, you would've divorced early on.
You've put up with him for Jaejoon.
Mom, walls have ears. Watch your mouth.
Why should I? Taesoo isn't home.
And did I say anything wrong?
Since our family went broke,
...you married Taesoo for money.
And you wandered about quite a while, right?
Then you had Jaejoon and got yourself together.
Right. Without Jaejoon, I would've divorced...
...and left this world.
What are you talking about? You would've left this world?
Would you have killed yourself then? What about me?
Mom,
...you don't know what Jaejoon means to me.
He is my whole life, my redemption, my dream.
All parents feel the same way about their child.
They gave bones and flesh to their child.
Yeah?
Is it because they gave bones and flesh?
Father, slow down.
If you get drunk, Mom will blame me.
What's there to worry about?
My doctor son will cure me if I'm sick.
You've gotten old to rely on me.
You used to call me "Weakling," or "Mama's boy."
Be honest with me.
I leave much to be desired as a father, huh?
I am older and more ignorant than other fathers.
And I was too old to play with you.
I'm not worthy to be your father.
You are really strange today.
Why?
Is there any problem with you?
The professor said you are normal.
Oh, I see.
You are sad since I'm getting married, huh?
Tell me. What is my grade as a father?
May I be frank with you? You'll be shocked.
Ten.
Perfect ten.
Frankly, when little, I was disappointed in you a lot.
You didn't play with me,
...and always compared me with Minjoon.
So I made a lot of efforts to be in your favor.
I went to medical school and became a plastic surgeon...
...to impress you.
Really?
But I realized this as I grew up.
Like you said, you didn't compare me with Minjoon.
You only wished me well.
And you cared about Minjoon since he grew up lonely.
So I know now...
...that although you don't say it, you love me.
Father,
...thank you for trusting me and respecting my decisions.
I'm confident in my career and marriage.
Good. Sure you should.
Fill my glass. I want to get drunk tonight.
Alright. Instead, slow down.
I filled it too much.
You would've left this world?
Would you have killed yourself then?
He is infertile.
He neglected spermatic varicocele too long.
No, Heera!
It's your life you chose.
Are you running away like a coward?
If it's too much for you, I'll help you.
So stay alive.
There is a way you can live, so stay alive!
Trust me.
There sure is a way you can have what you want.
Let me help you.
It's sweet.
Hey!
The way you eat! You didn't even finish the red part.
Hey!
Put it down. Put it down.
Why?
Yangsoon, stop doing that.
Your daughter marries into a rich family soon.
Don't behave like a poor person.
Esol must be happy to marry a rich man.
A woman sure should be pretty.
Why are you looking at me?
Eunsol, why don't you stop eating and go exercise?
You're so!
She's as strong as Hercules!
I'm happy she marries a rich guy,...
...but I'm worried about dowry.
Worrying doesn't help anything. So don't worry.
Hundreds of acorns are no match for one big watermelon.
Right. Whatever dowry you prepare for her,
...it won't satisfy her in-laws.
What a loving foster mom.
When some people abandon their own newborn babies,...
...are you sad to marry her off?
Of course.
I only gave her so much trouble and she's leaving me now.
Don't worry.
Esol is most grateful that you are her mother.
Her birth mom must feel more sorry than me.
How unfortunate wherever she is.
Her daughter grew up into a lady and is getting married,
...but she doesn't know anything.
Why do you bring her up?
Isn't her name Eunhye, meaning Grace?
If she's alive, she lives by the grace of God.
Today, I will tell you what you don't know about me.
What the...
She dares to ignore my call?
Your avoiding me like this will work against you.
Today is your last day. Did you tell Esol?
Or do you want me to meet her?
Call me as soon as you get this message.
Ms. Jeong, aren't you tired? Go in and take a rest.
Oh, okay.
Come on. Mr. Park asked me to take good care of you.
Come on, let's go in.
No. I want to look around more.
It makes me think of the past being back here.
Have you been here before? When was it?
Well, what year was it?
It was when I was 8. Has been more than 30 years ago.
Why were you here?
You were an elementary school student. Was it for a picnic?
Picnic?
My mom and I were on the run and came here.
On the run? From whom?
We were hunted by the police.
Isn't she Dr. Choi? What brings her here at this hour?
Ha. Now she turned off her cell phone?
You think I'll give up easily?
Dr. Choi.
What are you doing here?
Oh. Well.
Actually, I came to see Ms. Lena Jeong.
My wife?
Yes.
I need to ask her something but I can't reach her.
She's out of town for a business trip.
Really? When will she be back?
Tomorrow. Is it urgent?
No. I'll call her later. Goodbye.
Mr. Park.
Are you happy with your married life?
You will have a baby soon.
You want to protect your happiness forever, don't you?
What do you mean?
It may be presumptuous of me but let me give you an advice.
If you want to live happily with your family,
...give Jaejoon to my family.
Dr. Choi.
Mark my words.
If he marries Esol, your happiness is bound to be broken.
Repeat what I said exactly to your wife.
And she'll get it.
Wait.
What on earth are you saying?
My marriage will break up if Jaejoon marries Esol?
That's ridiculous.
Ridiculous?
But it's the brutal reality.
I don't want to say anymore.
If you're curious, ask your wife.
I have nothing to lose even if you find out.
Bye.
I remember this place too.
You're amazing to remember things 30 years ago.
How can I ever forget?
Here I spent my last days with my mom.
Eat this. I brought some bread. Try some.
Last days?
We were on the run long enough...
...and my mom was taken ill so we stole into this place.
And what happened?
Your mother was sick. Did she pass away?
No.
Had she died at that time,
...I would've missed her, not hated her.
Mom.
Fortunately, we were found by a priest...
...and he saved her life.
Then what do you mean by the last days with her?
Listen carefully.
Eunhye Orphanage?
I can't escape easily if you're with me.
I'm going to leave you here.
If someone comes and asks you,
...say you don't know your mom.
Mom!
Stop crying.
You don't know your name, your parents,
...and even your home.
- Go now. - Mom!
Go, just go. Don't look back and just go.
That's how she left me...
...and I haven't seen her ever since.
I waited for her for a long time to take me back...
...but that's the last of it.
Then did you grow up in that orphanage?
As my mom told me, I erased the days I lived as Soojeong,
...and I got a new name, Eunhye.
I lived with that name until 21.
Then you moved to America, right?
And you've lived as Lena Jeong for 23 years.
Right.
What made you move to America?
And why did you change your name?
You told me that...
...whenever you changed your name, you erased the past.
There was a reason why you changed that name, right?
Was it because...?
Yes. It was because of my baby.
My baby born without blessings whom I lost to her dad.
I left Korea to forget her...
...and I've strived for success since then.
I see.
People say you became a star emcee overnight,
...but now I see how much you struggled to achieve this.
I hope you're happy in life.
You deserve it.
I really hope you're happy.
By the way, why are you telling me your story?
There must be some reason, right? Am I wrong?
I want to seek your understanding.
I hope you don't hate me but understand me.
Ms. Jeong.
Esol, let me ask a question.
Do you mean what you just said?
You said I deserve to be happy after all my struggle.
Do you really think so?
I've never been happier than now.
I have everything I've dreamed of all my life.
I don't feel miserable, lonely, or ignored.
I want to be as happy as now forever.
So in order to keep this happiness,
...just for one last time,
...can I commit a sin for just once more?
Ms. Jeong.
Tell me. Can I?
Like what sin?
Tell me. What sin do you mean?
The same sin my mom committed...
...when she abandoned me.
I'm going to abandon my child for my own sake.
Esol.
Listen, Esol.
The child I told you about...
The child born to me 22 years ago and known as dead...
That child... My daughter is...
That child is... My daughter is...
That child is...
Esol, that child is...
Excuse me.
Could you come out? You have a visitor.
Honey.
How did you come here?
Hi, Mr. Park.
I was worried about you two so I came.
I couldn't reach you by phone. Is everything okay?
Oh, honey.
You worried over nothing when I'm with Esol.
Did I?
Then I'll say I came since I missed you.
Esol, pack up. I reserved a hotel room.
Okay. One minute please.
It's okay.
I want to stay the night here with her.
Really? Isn't it uncomfortable here?
It feels good. Quiet, fresh air...
In fact, I came to ask something.
But I'll ask you tomorrow.
What is it?
Nevermind.
You must be tired. Get a good rest.
I'll come early in the morning.
Good night, Esol.
Take care.
Drive safely. The mountain road is dangerous.
I'll come early tomorrow morning.
I really envy you.
When I marry Jaejoon, I want to live like you.
Let's go in. The air is cold.
And we should catch up with your story.
No. I want to enjoy the night breeze.
Don't stay outside too long.
If you catch a cold, we can't get medicine here.
Come back in soon.
Ms. Jeong, thank you for sharing your story.
I think I got closer to you.
You've made a lot of efforts and you deserve happiness.
To be frank with you, I'm afraid of getting married...
...and adjusting to a new environment.
But I'm reassured and relieved since you are there.
Ms. Jeong, meeting you is the luckiest thing that has happened.
I truly appreciate you and love you.
With love, Esol.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, baby.
Mommy is sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, baby. I'm sorry.
Oh, headache. My head is splitting.
Honey, have some honey water.
Taesoo, are you feeling okay?
Taesoo, you shocked us last night.
Why? I don't remember anything.
Did something go wrong?
You rarely drink much...
...but last night, you came home drunk on Jaejoon's back.
The half of it.
You were soaked with drink.
Jaejoon was groaning, carrying you on the back.
What if he hurt his back?
I'm sorry about that.
Don't do that again.
He cannot digest alcohol. It'll make him sick.
Dang it. Can't I even drink with my son?
It's not that. Since he is a poor drinker...
Then he should learn to drink.
My sons can hold their liquor!
My.
Honey.
Say no more.
I can take care of my child.
My goodness.
Why does he turn on you?
He got angry at you for his own mistakes.
Doesn't he have the change of life?
Men also turn sulky easily in climacterium.
Climacterium? He's old enough to have past it.
Marry a woman before you have climacterium.
What's wrong with him?
Where are we going for summer vacation?
Hawaii last year was terrible, swarmed with people, right?
This time, let's go to Alaska.
We can go salmon fishing on a cruise ship and stay cool.
What do you think, honey? Isn't it a good idea?
I thought about it for days and nights.
Leave me out.
I'll spend this summer working hard.
Hey, enjoy your youth.
Why working hard? Your parents make good money.
Travel around with us and get married in due time. Okay?
Honey, I'll settle on Alaska.
Alaska? Great.
If possible,
...take a cruise to the North Pole and don't come back.
Honey.
Yura, the stocks your grandfather left you.
Let's sell them.
Why? They are my share.
I'll pay back after I use the money.
The stock market is high. Let's dispose of them.
You know what? I already sold them and spent the money.
What?
Where did you spend that big money?
I'll start a business.
You? What business?
Mind your own business. You have enough on your plate.
Well, I'm going to work.
Yura. Yura!
How come she's so unruly?
I already have enough headaches.
Wait, wait. Wait.
Is the financial situation of the hospital that bad?
Are we that desperate?
Aren't you a mere spectator?
Of course. The management is your responsibility.
Acting all so smart, how could you have it come to this?
If you can't do it right, just keep house!
You make me laugh!
Forget about Alaska and just do the dishes.
Yes.
Really?
I see. I'll be in soon.
I'm sorry. What brings you here?
I came to see you.
You were supposed to stop by yesterday but didn't come.
Oh, I'm sorry. I've been too busy.
I'm sorry to remind you but...
...your loan payment this month wasn't made again.
Kim, are you going to be this cheap?
I'm your old client.
How could you press me for payment like this?
It's such a large sum...
...so my branch can reel if you fall behind on the payments.
If you default on payment again, it'll be out of my hands.
What do you mean?
The Credit Management of the head office will handle it.
Then I can't help you anymore.
If you're five months in arrears with the payments,
...your hospital will be put up for auction.
Don't worry.
I own Myongjin Clinic.
You think I can't even handle this matter?
I'll clear off the arrears this month, so trust me and wait.
Jaejoon.
Good morning. Did you sleep well?
Yes. I slept in a temple with Ms. Jeong.
Where are you?
I'm on the way to work. I have a surgery today.
I'm sorry you can't even rest during the weekend.
Yeah.
I think I'll be relieved of my fatigue if I see you now.
Is there any way I can see you?
Hang up. I'll send you my pictures.
Okay. Be fast.
Excuse me.
Yes.
Peekaboo!
What happened? How did you come here?
I missed you so much that I flew to you,
...contracting space by magic.
I told him to come and he came this early.
Aren't you happy?
Minjoon, why don't you buy us breakfast?
Sure. What would you like to eat?
As a matter of fact, we need a hearty meal.
Ms. Jeong didn't sleep well and skipped dinner.
Why? Something happened?
Where is she?
Why a big sigh?
Hope might hear you.
Honey. When did you come?
I told you I'd come to pick you up.
Don't walk a lonely path alone. You might be kidnapped.
You look tired. Can we sit down?
Truly,
...I wish I could sleep tight so I could think of nothing.
You couldn't sleep well?
Is it because of Dr. Choi?
I met her in front of the house yesterday.
She said something strange.
Like what?
She asked me to convey her message...
...that if Jaejoon marries Esol, we'll have to split up.
There's a problem between you and her, right?
Isn't it why you can't sleep or eat in worry?
Honey, we are married.
We share not only our pleasure but also our worries.
What is the matter?
Something very important...
...about your health.
You'll see if you take a look at this.
Hold on, honey.
Why?
We need to talk, Dr. Choi.
Sir, you have a visitor.
Who?
It is Dr. Hyejin Choi of Myongjin Clinic.
Let her in.
How are you, Mr. Park?
Hi. You're just the person I wanted to see.
That's good. I came to tell you something important.
Have a seat.
Thank you.
Would you like to go first?
No, you go first.
I came to ask you a favor.
You know the hospital site in Qingdao I bought.
TNC is supposed to take it over but it isn't approved yet.
Please, handle this matter promptly.
Surely, undue favor is often taken as a right.
Don't you think you're stepping over the boundaries?
It's about millions of dollars.
We should take prudence in handling the matter.
The finance team will take time to approve it.
Mr. Park, you promised Heera...
...to take moral responsibility for breaking the engagement.
Did you say I take it as a right? I have the right.
You promised the hospital in Qingdao as a wedding gift...
...so I bought the site.
Dr. Choi.
If our kids married as planned, I wouldn't suffer a big loss.
Jaejoon had a change of heart and broke off the engagement.
Isn't it natural you should compensate us for that?
I stand on the verge of bankruptcy because of your promise.
Am I asking too much?
Well, you are right.
I'm ready to compensate you.
But there's one thing weighing on my mind.
I can't sign the paper before it's resolved.
What is it?
If you want to save your hospital,
...answer me honestly, without a word of lie.
Okay, go ahead. I'll be honest with you.
Twenty-eight years ago,
...I had a medical checkup at your father's hospital.
Did I have spermatic varicocele at that time?
Answer. Did I?
Yes, you did.
Since Heera married you,
...she didn't get pregnant for 3 years for that reason.
Do you understand what you mean by that answer?
Yes, I do.
And you're curious about how she had a baby, aren't you?
I can't bear to...
Well, what happened?
Tell me. What happened?
Not every man with that disease is infertile.
It's not easy but occasionally, you can conceive a baby.
Like Heera.
Then do you mean Jaejoon is my son?
Answer. Is he?
Yes, he is.
Are you sure?
Yes. Heera didn't do anything to disappoint you.
Cross my heart.
I see. You may go back.
You'll take care of the hospital site in Qingdao, right?
Go back and wait. I'll think about it.
What's there to think about more?
Mr. Park, I assure you,
...Jaejoon can never marry Esol.
He is bound to marry Yura.
So don't give up the Qingdao hospital.
Secure the site and build a hospital,
...and we'll hit the jackpot.
Trust me and sign the paper.
Please.
I'm serious. Trust me.
You may leave.
Then I'll trust you and leave.
Dr. Choi, you gave me the wrong answer.
If it were true, you wouldn't have threatened my wife.
How did he know that?
What if I'm really up over with the Qingdao hospital?
I must pair off Yura with Jaejoon by all means.
The person you have dialed is not available.
Fine, Lena.
If you keep on being this way, I will not wait.
Next time, try our beef sirloin.
It is so tender and tasty. Help yourself.
Come here.
What?
Did you hear the news?
Our boss is sick so he sold this restaurant to someone else.
What? Is it true?
Yes. I heard it today.
A new owner is taking over the restaurant today.
No way. Then what will become of us?
The new owner will fire us all.
Never. He might need us until he gets in the swing, right?
Anyway, we must win favor with the new owner.
Let's work hard, okay?
Hello!
Why are you all standing here?
Are you goofing around?
Go back. We're in a bad mood today.
Why? It's my first official day.
With whose permission? We might lose our jobs.
Consider your surroundings.
Don't worry. That won't happen.
I took over this restaurant because of you.
- What? - What?
What is she saying?
How are you? I am the new owner, Yura Seo.
Owner?
My service to you.
Here's my business card.
Excuse me!
Yes, coming!
Time flies.
Our parents have a meeting next week at last.
But I am worried.
Why? I am excited.
After their meeting, we'll have a wedding,
...and then we'll go on a honeymoon.
Tell me. What are you worried about?
My mom has a lot of concerns.
She worries that I'm too young and untrained to marry...
...and worries about dowry, too.
What about you? Are you worried too?
Frankly, her concerns are my concerns.
Tell Mother never to worry about it.
We can get a place and furnishings for ourselves.
Let's get a small apartment...
...and buy furnishings one by one as we live.
What can I ask her for more when she gives you to me?
You think it makes sense?
No, it doesn't. There's one thing you have to bring.
What is it?
A bed. A single-sized bed.
So we can cuddle up with each other.
You're so!
I have something to give you.
What is it?
Tada!
A couple watch.
From this moment until our death,
...we will live the same time.
Can you?
Isn't it pretty?
Hold on.
Excuse me.
Yes.
Now?
Tell me what Dr. Choi meant by it.
What does his marriage have to do with us?
Did she clearly say like that?
That we'll break up if Jaejoon marries Esol?
Yes.
There's something I don't know, right?
Let me ask one thing.
If what she said is true, what will you do?
What do you mean?
You heard me.
Which would be better, our breakup or Jaejoon's breakup?
What the heck are you talking about?
That cannot and should not happen.
That's why I'm saying "IF."
Which would you choose?
Answer.
That'll never happen, and even if it does,
...we are already married.
We can't break up when we have a baby.
Then it's Jaejoon who should break up.
Honey, what the heck is that crackbrained idea?
Tell me.
Why did Dr. Choi say it like that?
Never mind. I'll handle the matter.
Let's go. Jaejoon must be waiting.
Excuse me.
Yes, Jaejoon. Where are you?
What?
Okay. Drive safely.
Is he leaving already?
There's an emergency at work so Esol has to go back.
An emergency at work?
You have no idea?
What could it be?
What are we going to do?
Excuse me
I gave you enough time.
Now I will deal with Esol.
Honey, I have to leave now. Something urgent came up.
What is it?
I'll tell you later.
I have my car so I'll go by myself.
Yes, Ms. Jeong.
Is Jaejoon with you now?
Yes.
Then just answer my questions.
Are you going to meet Dr. Choi?
How did you know that?
Just answer my questions.
What time and where are you going to meet her?
Ms. Jeong.
Tell me. Are you supposed to meet her in her office?
Yes. I told her I'd be there as soon as I get to Seoul.
You don't need to go.
But...
I said you don't need to.
She has a bone to pick up with me, not with you.
So don't go there.
I'm going to meet her, so don't go there.
Do you understand?
Okay. Then I'll go home.
Okay. I'll call you again.
What is it? You ignored my calls.
I'm going to your office. Don't touch my daughter.
You should've been this way early on.
But you know what? It's too late.
Hello? Hello?
Yes.
Are you in Seoul?
Yes. But Ms. Jeong said she'll meet you.
I told YOU to come.
Come to my office right away.
I'm sorry but what's this about?
I told you.
It's a matter of your marriage with Jaejoon.
If you want to know, come right away.
Taxi!
Come in.
What brings you here in your busy schedules?
We need to talk.
Didn't I warn you?
That I'll tell Esol myself in a week.
Yet, you ignored me.
Why did you come when it's too late?
I didn't ignore you. I just couldn't help it.
Although I didn't raise her, she is my daughter.
And this is about abandoning her for the second time.
That is your problem.
You asked for it yourself...
...but my daughter and I are innocent victims.
Because of your foolish decision in the past,
...do you know how much damage I suffered?
My 30-year long dream was shattered.
And that's not all.
You ruined my daughter's life...
...and broke the trust between Inchol and me. Moreover,
...this hospital might go broke. So how can I understand you?
I really want to weed you two out of society.
I do want to make it public and finish both you and Esol!
Do you know why I don't?
If I do, my husband will be treated like trash in the lump.
That's why I bear with it.
So don't give me cheek and just get out.
I don't want to talk with you.
I know.
I know what you want.
And that is what I have to do without choice.
I will do it.
I can.
I am trying.
You're trying?
Then why can't you do it?
I will do it now. Give me some time.
I beg you. Give me some time.
Time? What time?
I gave you a week. What more time do you need?
I want to spend a few days...
...with my daughter.
I met her in 23 years.
I met her since I last saw her when she was a baby.
Please give me some time to spend with Esol.
I beg you. You too have a daughter.
I've done nothing for her,
...and now I have to ruin her happiness.
Still, I am her mother.
So please, let me play my role as a mother to Esol.
You are really selfish.
People might think you are full of maternal love.
Far from it.
You're playing cheap tricks to ease your guilty feeling.
Just because you play mother for a few days,
...will your sins be forgiven?
What you should do for her is...
... to separate her from Jaejoon as soon as possible...
...and shorten her pain.
Then give me just three days.
Why should I do that?
I beg you.
For just one last time,
...let me play my role as a mother.
If you can't give me three days, give me two...
...I mean, even one day.
Please.
I've never been happier than now.
So in order to keep this happiness, just for one last time,
...can I commit a sin just once more?
I'm going to abandon my child for my own sake.

I'd like to have your food.
Although she didn't give birth to me,
...she gave me abundant love like a real mom.
I want to request paternity test. What should I prepare?
Why did you have to come and wag the tongue?
You got lost for a while but you'll get back on the rails.
Now I've found out everything.
Like how despicable you are!
