Episode 9
Baby's mom, I'm sorry, but let's forget about the surgery
I'll contact you later, so please go home for now
Did something happen to mother-in-law?
The chairman stopped by the day before
Since then, her face didn't look so well
I'll go look for her
In the present time, 30-45% of customers are looking for a family restaurant Companies are 62%
Also, 65% of restaurants are satisfying this demand
45% of customers look for restaurants at least 15 times a month
Eating outside is not just eating a meal,
it is now a culture
The customer you are trying to reach
Chairman's Wife
We are unable to connect and will now transfer you to voicemail Please leave a message after the tone
Please have a taste first
Don't you have something to say to your brother?
Let's discuss our problem somewhere else at a later time
Let's go
Are you trying to run away again?
I know you won't handle this honorably, but isn't an apology common courtesy?
Even though I am an adult, this isn't something I can let go, from a moral and ethical standpoint
Say something What is your opinion?
Do you think the things happening between me and you are normal?
Move aside and don't cause a quarrel
Quarrel? A quarrel?
Is this a quarrel, you punk?!
What are you two doing here?
I
What happened? Shouldn't you be in surgery right now?
I won't undergo the surgery
What did you say?
Listen to me clearly, Ji Hoon
I've decided to live my own life
I'm going to live just as I am, no matter how many days I have left
You worked really hard and I am sorry
Where are you right now?
I didn't come here to die, so don't worry
I came to a place with fresh air, to think good thoughts, eat good food,
live with a comfortable heart, and then I will leave
I've decided to live rationally
with the amount of grace the heavens have given me, and then I will leave
When I leave, I'll call you
So you should also,
just forget everything and live being faithful to your own life
Are you playing around? Why aren't you getting the surgery? Do you not know what I went through for this?
Live well I was thankful
Hello Hello?
Do you know what happened because of you?
If I were you and I knew about this, I would have gone somewhere and died How do you always live a chewed-up-gum life? (imposing on others)
Must you sustain your own life by being parasitic on someone else's life?
When you were young, you relied on me for support, and now that you're old, you rely on your son for support Aren't you ashamed?
Operating Room
The surgery has been cancelled
I'll be back after I make a call
Ji Hoon, you must be busy How does dinner tomorrow night sound?
If you hear this message, call me back, ok?
Do you know what my wish is?
It's taking a family photo like other people
With my son, my daughter-in-law, and my grandkids
Just taking a proper family photo!
I've only lived as a shadow my whole life,
so must I quietly disappear like a shadow, too?
I'm here, Father
Oh, yes
The board meeting was full of praise for you
There will be personnel appointments at the start of next month
Prepare for your promotion as a director
You did well up to now You put in a lot of effort
From now on, you have to dream big
I heard your mother took off for somewhere without getting the surgery
Father, by any chance, did you go see mom?
Are you saying she left because of me?
What kind of behavior If she was going to disappear, she should've done it sooner
She runs away now, after putting lines through her son's pedigree?
She's trouble until the very end
I guess that wench must be happy since the surgery isn't happening anymore Divorce her right away
When will you meet with the lawyer?
- Father - Ah, what are you trying to say again?
Just give it up now
A dying person wants to die, so just leave her alone
For the last time, I will go
I would like to say my last goodbye
Last goodbye?
Yes Just give me two days, please
What about the divorce?
After I come back, I'll get it done
Close your eyes Sleep
That mother sure knows how to cause distress
What is she trying to do, disappearing on the day of the surgery?
The person you have called is not answering up the phone
But why didn't that man come to his own mother's surgery?
He's a really strange person
He must have his reasons Would he not come on purpose?
Hey! You… Do you still have feelings for that man?
I'm just calling because I'm worried!
Besides, that person has a girlfriend Don't say strange things
What's strange about it?
Plus, he's a married man, what do you mean a girlfriend?
Is your husband cheating on you?!
Oh, oh, sorry
Did you see your mother?
- Is it the Director? - Yes
That scared me!
Is mother having a hard time?
Where is she right now? Did she get re-admitted?
That's a relief I was really worried
I thought perhaps she might've had bad thoughts again
Hye Soo
Thinking of this as the last time, can you do a favor for me?
What is it?
I'm going to meet my mother Could you come with me?
Let's go together With Eun Sung, too
Eun Sung?
It's been awhile, Mom
Long time no see, Father
Have you been well all this time?
Who is this?
I heard there was a person resembling you walking around
I thought that it couldn't be Why are you here?
Who do you think you are daring to show your face around here?
Have you been well, oppa?
Oppa, what oppa?
I don't have a younger sister like you Hurry up and leave
This is my parents' grave
Who are you that you're coming to a stranger's grave and cleaning up?
I'll just greet them and get going
They don't need your greetings
Get going now
I can't even greet them? No matter how big of a sinner I am,
I can't even greet my parents?
Well said
A great sinner? You seem to know that very well
You never came to help out with their funeral,
so why are you doing filial acts now?!
Do you think I don't know your true feelings?
You came to ask me to do a transplant surgery for you, right?
Since I turned your son down,
now you're here to ask in person, right?
Why? Are you coming to your senses now that death is near?
It's not like that Don't worry
What do you mean it's not like that?
No matter how much tenderness you come and jiggle,
you will never get it Don't even dream about it
Go I said leave now!
Don't come close! I'm going to die here
I'm going to die near my parents!
Don't come close! If you do, I'm going to die right now!
Don't come close! Don't come close!
Passengers, we are about to reach the shore
Wow, look over there, Mom!
There are a lot of mountains on top of the water
Eun Sung, those aren't mountains, they're islands Islands
Oh, they're islands?
How could you not have taken her to the beach at least once? She doesn't even know what islands are
I know
- Why did I do that? - But Mom,
where are we going?
Oh, where we're going… We're going to meet ahjussi's mom
Ahjussi's mom?
Yep, ahjussi's mom Grandmother
Grandma is not feeling well
We have to go and make her happy
If we do that, then will she get better?
Of course! If we can make her happy, she'll be all better!
After she's all better, we have to say Let's go together, Grandma!
Let's bring her back, ok?
Let go of me!
The ferry's leaving Get on and be gone!
I'm not going! Let go of me!
Uncle! Uncle!
Who's this? Ah, it's good timing that I met you
Take your mom and go back!
Why did you come? Why'd you bring everyone, too?
I don't know what's going on,
but take your Mother back home
- Hey! Hey! - Uncle!
Aigoo, that little
Please let me introduce them This is my wife and daughter
Hello
Wife?
Daughter?
Oh, okay So now you bring your entire family
to cling on to me, right?
It's not that Don't worry
I won't ask for favors like that
Why I should just put that thing?
Wow, flowers!
Wow!
Why are you here? How did you know to come here?
Where else would you go, Mom?
Need me to tell you again? I'm not getting that surgery
I know I am well aware
If you understand, why did you come?
Don't worry! I already requested for a place,
and I found a nurse, too The hospital is close as well
If I just take a boat out, it's right there
Is it that hard for you to believe what I say?
I'm comfortable now! I'm fine!
The moment I breathed in the air of the beach in my hometown, I really felt alive
Hurry up and leave!
Look here, Mom Madam Oh Mi Ran!
You can't imagine how terrible and dismal I feel right now?
I brought a final gift for you
You said your wish is to take a family photo A photo of a son, daughter-in-law, granddaughter, and a grandmother
Let's all gather together and take a picture A family photo
Ji Hoon
We might be a fake family, but we're still a family
It's really funny You're not my mother legally (on the family registry)
But legally, that woman is my wife
I won't ask you to come back with me, so let's stay together for a night
Aigoo, pretty
Why do you keep bumming around today?
Why do you keep falling asleep?
Oh, when did I do that?
Do you want to get in trouble?
Welcome!
Is Director Han Ji Hoon here?
The director? He went on a business trip
A business trip?
Yes
- I understand - Alright
What about Miss Kang Hye Soo? Could I see her?
She went on an assignment to a different location She won't be here anytime soon
An assignment?
Yes To Ja-e Hotel in Jeju Island
Kang Hye Soo?
She went out with the Director this morning
What? Where?
How would I know? Whether he's taking her to the other location or wherever
They packed their bags and went into the car with the kid
Omo! I knew it! Really…
Hey, what nonsense are you saying now?
He probably didn't see correctly
What do you mean didn't see correctly? I have 20/20 vision!
I mean, that is
Why are you winking like that? Did something get in your eye?
Come here, I'll blow it out for you
Saw it wrong…
I'll come back another time
Goodbye
Come here, I'll get it out for you!
20/20 vision? Are you an eagle?
Actually, Ji Hoon and I are going to be dating again
Ah, really?
Would you have a problem with that?
Oh, no! Congratulations!
That jerk over there! His hobby is to change partners
So you have to play with me to make things fair How much should I pay?
Hey, I asked how much!
How much?
This bastard, really…
- You bastard! You dare hit your hyung! - Let me go ! Let go!
We are Eun & Soo! Woo!
St-st-start!
My bumpy dashing curves

Thank you!
Mom, are we all going to play here today?
Of course!
Yay! I'm excited!
The food is here! Hurry, hurry
Ta-da!
Your daughter is so cute
Who do you look like?
You look like your father That's right, you look like your dad
Do you look like your grandmother, too?
Grandma looks like she's from Seoul She's high class
Your granddaughter is cute, too
You probably don't even notice the time going by when you're so giddy with your granddaughter
They look good, don't they?
Eat well, okay?
I'll get up first
I'm tired, I need to rest
How did the surgery go? Did it go well?
No, the thing is…
The surgery is delayed a little
The surgery is delayed?
Why?
Is there some problem?
Are those people scheming something?
Or why would they delay the surgery for no reason?
She should have clearly told them she wasn't going to do it
That Kang Hye Soo is so dim sometimes
I'll explain in person later, Seung Joo Okay?
Sorry!
Hye Soo is getting surgery?
You heard that?
What surgery?
Is she sick?
No, it's not like that It's similar to an appendix surgery
Why would she get appendix surgery over 10 days?
Who said it was for 10 days?
Eun Sung said her mother was going on a business trip for 10 days
Oh, she's actually getting a surgery?
What kind of a surgery? For what? How is she sick?
It's not like that
Tell me Does she have a terminal illness?
I said that's not it!
Tell me! Why aren't you talking?
Usually when it's bad, it's possible to have appendix surgery over 10 days
You don't even know
Chairman
Oh, you came?
How is your health?
It's just alright It's been awhile since I've held a golf club so my hand are shaky
Your father insists we must go play a course next week
Aigoo, what would I do with such an old body like this?
I'll just go and watch
Come here and have a seat
Right, what brings you here?
Sorry for coming on such short notice
Why, is it about Ji Hoon?
I'd like it if you would explain everything to me
What's going on with Ji Hoon? What's his relationship with that woman?
He still hasn't told you anything?
Please help me I'd like to know everything
Those two are together right now
Only I don't know anything It makes me feel like a joke
Right now the two of them are together?
That's enough Just go out and rest
I want to take a nap
Grandmother seemed unhappy
What should we do, Mommy?
I know How can we make her feel better?
Ah! I have a good idea
Mom Where's your makeup?
My makeup?
Here
Eun Sung, what are you doing?
I told you to go out
Meow! Meow!
Meow!
Meow! Meow!
She laughed
Grandma, should I tell you a funny story?
I'm just a little bit tired right now I should sleep
Eun Sung One, two, three! Here you go
Eun Sung, tell grandmother lots and lots of fun stories!
Mom is going over there to buy some snacks
Okay Come back safely, Mom
I'll be back
Your face Your face!
Who drew this?
Did Eun Sung draw it?
You draw so well
Hello
Halmoni, how much is this?
₩5,000
Thank you Good luck!
Give it to me
That's okay, it's not that heavy
Are you Cutie or Chubby?
What?
Halmoni
- Thank you - Stay still
I will do it
Stay still I said
No, it's because it hurts I'll do it
It's not coming off too easily
- Oh, why? I'll do it I said I'll do it! - Just hold on
- Just hold on? That's pretty gross!
Wait, wait Just hold still
- Hey- Yes?
Why did you only buy a few snacks?
Do you like snacks?
It's just that there are many of us
- Should I go buy more?- No no, that's not what I mean
Can we eat some now?
You seem to like snacks, I'll be right back
No, it's fine, it's fine I can't say a word edgewise
Why would I like snacks? Am I Eun Sung?
Why are you walking so fast?
If anyone were to see, they'd think you're an athlete
Eun Sung's waiting
I was athletic when I was still in high school
You have a good eye
What kind of sport?
I was a runner
When I was younger, I used to live near the ocean like this
When I wasn't in a good mood, I ran
You know, "Run, Honey, Run" right? My nickname was, "Run, Hye Soo, Run"
What nonsense
What? You don't believe me?
Do you want to race to see who wins?
Whoever gets to the sea first will get to finger-flick the other person on the forehead!
Aigoo, you're not even a kid or anything
What is this? What?
- Let's go again- No more running
It's tiring
I'm "Run Hye Soo"!
Ah, it's because of the dogs
- Because of those dogs- You can't even talk properly
Are you disappointed? Are you alright?
I feel like I'm going to die
Want me to help you up?
Oh my!
There's nothing you're good at You can't run a race or cook ramyun
- Stop smiling- Okay
Spring is here
I think so
They're probably thinking we went to Seoul to get snacks
I should go back
Aigoo, master, where should I take you next?
Over there
Yes, yes master Aigoo
- Omo! Eun Sung! I'm so sorry!- Why?
You can't do that!
Why? Why are you scolding the kid?
I asked her to do it
Eun Sung, would you like to play the name game with Grandma?
Yes, I like that!
- Ocean!- Squirrel?
- Dried filefish- Grape
K-k-korean bellflower!
Subway
Chul? Chul
Migratory bird
- You think I couldn't—- Bird Poop!
Poop? Poop
Grandmother's expression looks like she's chewing on poop
Right?
Poopie! Poopie!
- Dog poop! - Poop!?
How can you use poop again, Eun Sung?
- Dry!- Dry?
Jo-jo-jo, what starts with "jo"?
- Clam- Yeah, it's clam!
Eun Sung, Grandma is tired so let's wash up and go to sleep
Your dessert drink is here! Did you enjoy the dinner?
- Mother, you have some first- Ah yes, thank you
Thank you
I'm sorry but can you take a photo for us?
My mom wants a family photo
She said that we have to take photos at places like this, because she's old fashioned
Give it here Please come out front
I'm good at taking photos
Aigoo, our baby here is so pretty!
Grandma!
I'm taking the photo now! Say 'kimchi'! Smile!
Mother, please smile
- Smile! - Daughter-in-law, too!
- Smile smile- Right Please get closer
Okay here we go One, two!
Once more
Check it out
Let's see It turned out nicely
Well everyone here is good-looking anyway It turned out nicely, right?
Grandma
Go to sleep
Eun Sung, let's go to sleep
Hye Soo
Kang Hye Soo?
Are you asleep?
What's wrong?
Do you want a beer?
No
I was thankful for earlier The photos turned out nicely
Isn't it nice?
Yes
Go to sleep then
Oh, Na Yoon
You went through a lot, Eun Sung
I heard you went on a business trip How's your work coming along?
Yes, of course
Ji Hoon, to be honest I heard everything from the Chairman
About your Mother
He told me the situation between you and that woman
It must have been tough When are you coming back?
I'll be there soon
About your trip Did you go alone?
Is your daughter sleeping?
Oh this is kelp that we fried Please give this to your daughter
I'll contact you again when I get back
What's wrong?
It's nothing
Go to sleep
It's ok Everything is fine
It's fine
Is the kid sleeping?
Yes, she's sleeping
Ji Hoon
Forget it Don't set the mood, just go to sleep
Don't work so hard, you can stop now
I'm plenty thankful Thankful towards the both of you
Thank you for the family photo
But my feelings still won't change
This time, I realized just how ridiculously I've lived
You just realized that?
I know, right?
I managed to build my life, but in the end, it was nothing but a sand castle It just crumbles away at my touch
What was I expecting, living all these years?
Ji Hoon I
I thought that I really loved your Father
If I didn't believe in that, I thought I couldn't live
I would despise him but then tell myself that deep inside, his true feelings were different
No matter I thought it was me who he loved That's what I truly believed
But
when I last saw him, I realized how foolish I was
I finally woke up
Seriously Ah, that dreaded love
Aigoo
My life was about blaming others and making excuses
Like your father said I lived like a gum, a gum
I didn't live my life
I lived for your father and for you
Why did I do that? What did I lack?
If I accept the surgery with the condition that I cut off ties with you,
how hellish would the rest of my life be?
Still, do I have to live like that? Because living is good?
Ji Hoon
Even if I live for a day, if I am living my own life,
isn't that better than living ten years while hanging onto someone else?
Must I live as a wench, who salvaged her life by selling off her son?
If I lived like that, then what's so different from the past?
- Mom- Don't asked me to go back
I want to live here
No matter how many months more I can live, really my own life,
I want to live my own life 100% happily and then pass on
Ji Hoon, you saved me
You did You saved me
The two are together right now
Father!
Come in only if I say you can
Ji Hoon has lived however he wanted without a care
- I sent him on a business trip- What?
I said I sent him on a business trip Get out and go to sleep
Father, I heard a weird rumor Can I confirm it with you?
- What?- That Ji Hoon will be promoted at the board meeting
That is something to be decided at the meeting, I don't know about it
Why wouldn't you know about it?
Father!
Father! All the people are talking badly!
Calling it 'the gold-spoon fast-track' promotion
Jung Hoon, go upstairs
Why are you in such a bad mood? Give me a glass, too
- Pour it yourself- I said to give me a glass of water
When I was young, you put me through hell over Oh Mi Ran, and now that I'm older, you only favor that wench's son
What's so great about you that I would pour you a glass of water?
You are despicable
There are wide-spread rumors that you're going to give everything to Ji Hoon
What is he? He's been playing around until now and
only just now, he entered the company
Who's going to give what to whom? There are no plans yet! The company doesn't only belong to me!
If anyone heard this, they'd think you're uneducated
I've been living all these years while telling myself to let's just wait and see
I, I cannot hold it in any longer I'll tell you once more
The eldest son of this family is Jung Hoon Ji Hoon is Oh Mi Ran's son
If a son that you didn't even raise was given everything, how happy do you think that wench would be?
She must be laughing at me right now
It makes me furious
Don't worry Oh Mi Ran,
she can't belittle you
You call that comfort?
That woman is dying Stop whining
- What did you say? - She will die soon Is that enough?
- Where's the chef?- He left earlier
- Hello- Oh!
Ji Hoon isn't back from his business trip yet
That's not it Please tell me where he is You know right?
I know Ji Hoon's situation, please tell me comfortably
Uhh, that's
Where is it?
I heard he went to go look for his Mother Where did he go?
What are these people doing?
Come here
How is your mom's surgery situation going?
Why did you suddenly come down here without calling?
What is this about not asking me for a favor, and what is this about your wife?
When did you get married?
How could you have a daughter her age?
- That's- Did you by chance buy your wife with money?
Your expression gives me the answer
Living as a fisherman for thirty years, my senses are sharp
Aigoo, buying people with money That's typical of you
Yes, you're right
That's the kind of thing I do
The mother and her son
Ridiculous Doing something like that and playing house
I was fooled How could you be so good at acting? I would've believed you if you said that you actually liked her
Yes, you're right
I am ridiculous
Then why is your mother acting out?
There's no son as devoted as you
I'm not a devoted son
I don't know how things got so twisted, but if you try to solve the world's problems with money,
everything will become a total wreck, do you understand?
- Mom- Yeah?
- I need to pee- You need to pee?
Let's go to the washroom
Let's go
Get up
Are you done, Eun Sung?
Okay, come out
It's cold
Mom, can I sleep with Grandma?
No, Grandma is sleeping
Eun Sung!
Mom Grandma said it's ok, she said I can sleep here
Okay
Grandmother, you weren't asleep?
Mm, I couldn't fall asleep
Why not?
When you get old, you can't fall asleep
I'm a kid but I can't fall asleep because I'm so happy
Mom not working and playing with me, I really like it!
All she does is work every day? She doesn't play with you?
Yes All she does is work every day
She works, and works again She said she has to earn money that way
What kind of mom is like that?
Instead of just earning money, she should be playing with Eun Sung
She has to earn money
That way, we can buy snacks and pork belly, too
- But grandmother - Hmm?
Where are you sick?
Oh, here and there?
When you get old, you hurt here and there
Please don't be sick
Don't be sick I'll blow on it for you (and make it better)
Eun Sung is pretty
Very pretty
Should grandmother sing you a lullaby?
I'd like that
I used to sing this song to ahjussi when he was young
When mother goes out to the island shade (sings: "Child on Island" lullaby)
to pick oysters
The child is alone
guarding the house
While listening to the lullaby
the sea sings
What are you doing?
You didn't go to sleep?
Why did you come out here instead of sleeping?
My head hurt a bit I guess I got a bit nauseous because it was a first time in awhile I got on a ferry
Does it hurt a lot?
No My head feels all better now
You should go back inside
You should go back first I want to get some fresh air
Wait The beach air is cold, so stay over here
I'll go inside
Okay
Have this
It's fine, I'm all better
Please eat You look absolutely pale
I really can't eat this
When we go back to Seoul, we might get the surgery They told me that I can't eat these things so carelessly
I'm all better, really I'll go back in now
Tomorrow morning… We're taking the first boat back
Did you convince your Mother?
Just the three of us will go back for now
No, we have to go together I don't have much time!
What do you mean?
It's not that…
You have to convince your mother somehow
How can only the three of us go back? We came here to take your Mother back
Let's just go back
No That can't be, she has to come with us!
Hye Soo!
Put this on Why did you come out when it's so cold?
I'm fine
You have to talk her into it somehow
Why would only the three of us go back?
My mother isn't getting the surgery
What?
Let's forget the surgery I'm going to accept her wishes
Why?
I just want to do that for her
You won't have any regrets?
Don't worry
Then Mother is
She won't change her mind
Since I'm the one that broke the contract conditions, I'm going to deposit your money soon
Well, our contract is over now
You went through a lot
You met a shameless bastard and suffered a lot
For coming this far, I'm really thankful to you
Honestly, I enjoyed it It felt like I had a real family
We seemed quite believable, right?
Since we're parting ways now, should we shake hands?
I probably don't have the right to say this but I hope you live happily from now on
Here
It's really hard to say those words
Let's break up with a smile
I can't on my own, what should I do
I miss you and the tears keep coming
Those words are not as easy as my heart
My heart doesn't smile like it used to
In these tears that start to dry up
Marriage Contract~ Preview ~
I'm sorry, Father That woman… I don't think I can give her up Like this, you become
My life, even once, will it light up? Distant, if there's no point in holding you back
In Kang Hye Soo's case, your 5-year survival rate is about 30% If there's no use holding on to you then I'll just follow you
Yesterday was a mistake Please
It wasn't a mistake for me Let's just give it a try Don't turn around and
Say those words
Like this if you get tired
