(Episode 128) You must be Mr. An's family.
Mr. An Gilsu's been found to be a compatible
donor for Ms. Bae Gukhui's liver transplant.
Excuse me?
I'm a compatible donor?
Will you go ahead with the surgery?
How are you?
Are you sure you're not in pain?
I actually feel refreshed like
I've gotten a good night's sleep.
You still shouldn't strain yourself.
Yes, Taeho is right.
You suffered a major trauma.
You may seem fine,
but you must be careful.
What a relief though.
You're making a fuss
like something awful happened to me.
I merely passed out from shock.
I want some fresh air.
The doctor says she can
be released and rest at home,
but I'm still worried.
Taeho, I have cabin fever.
I think I'll feel
a lot better once I get out.
I don't know if you should be hasty.
I'll ask the doctor again.
On the founding anniversary,
I disclosed all your files
on his wrongdoings
in front of the entire staff.
He's wanted by the police.
I see. He got what he deserved.
Mom has reclaimed her presidency.
Congratulations.
But isn't it too taxing for you?
You must prepare for the transplant.
I can get the surgery right now.
No, Aran.
You were in a coma for days.
You're not getting any surgery.
I swear I can do it.
The doctor said it was impossible.
Then what do we do?
What now?
What about mom?
I'm sorry, Aran.
Don't be.
Why are you apologizing for being pregnant?
Bom,
I'm sorry I wasn't the first to congratulate you.
So what about mom?
I'm pregnant, and you're unfit for the surgery.
I'm perfectly fine.
Mom has to get the transplant.
Don't worry.
Just focus on the baby.
I'll make this work somehow.
I'm perfectly healthy,
so I don't know what the problem is.
Ms. Choi Aran,
I know you care about your mother,
but you suffered a traumatic accident.
Then what about my mom?
She needs the transplant to survive.
Aran.
I'm healthy.
So just don't mention my accident.
I don't have any fractures,
so they won't know
unless I told them myself.
I'm sorry, Ms. Choi.
I beg you.
My mom didn't look well.
She doesn't have much time!
Please, doctor!
Where did he go?
Did he get to his destination?
The phone is off...
Why did he turn off his phone?
Could he still be on the plane?
(Son)
What is it?
Aran's being discharged.
We'll be staying at Aran's parents' place.
Do as you wish.
I can't stand seeing her anyway,
so just stay there for good.
No. I can't let her stay there.
An Gilsu got you in that accident, right?
You know he's wanted, right?
He should be put behind bars.
He must be punished
for his transgressions...
Grandma worried about you a lot too.
I keep worrying the family.
I'm sorry.
She went to the mountains with her friends
to find medicinal herbs for you and your mom.
She's so devoted.
But Gukhui,
how will you fare without the transplant?
Aran needs to rest,
so you guys should go.
She's tired.
You stay in our room.
Yes. I can stay in the pub.
Aran!
Here you are.
Mom, why are you here?
What are you doing here instead of coming
straight home?
I called and let you know.
Aran will be recovering here.
But that's not right.
I can't leave her care to you when you're unwell.
Mother, I'm comfortable here.
I know you're comfortable here,
but it's bothering me
that I'm not taking care of you.
I want to get you herbal tonic,
and I've made you lots of healthy food.
Look, Seonyeong,
I know you don't mean any of that.
That's right.
You just want to take her and torture her, right?
Please go.
Aran and I'll do what we need to.
It's bad enough that your dad
was set up and is on the run.
President An wasn't set up.
And now my son is pushing me away.
It breaks my heart.
Aran.
I'm sorry.
Can't you give me another chance?
Things have come to this
only because I wanted to survive.
Aran. Aran.
Don't you feel sorry for me?
Oh, my. Oh, my.
Mom. Mom!
Mother, wake up!
- Mom. / - Hey.
What's wrong with her?
Mom, are you okay?
Taeho.
Do you feel better?
Water. Water.
Hang on.
How do you feel, mother?
Listen to me.
Mother.
You ruined your father-in-law's life.
It's your scheming ways that ruined him.
I got into an accident because of him.
He drove my family to ruin and
tried to frame me for his wrongdoing.
Stop your nonsense
and go tell the police that
the charges against Gilsu
were your doing.
Tell them you're the principal offender.
Mother.
Shouldn't you save him?
He can't wander overseas,
living life as a fugitive.
You must make that sacrifice to live
with my son in our house.
You love Taeho, don't you?
Mom.
What are you saying to her?
My son Taeho,
don't you feel sorry for your dad?
We must save him.
We don't have to listen to her.
Let's go.
Taeho. Taeho. Taeho!
She's not in.
But she has a meeting soon.
We have to check you in
if your condition deteriorates.
I don't want to worry my family.
They're worried enough as it is.
They'll worry more
if I'm hospitalized.
You'll start
experiencing pain you can't endure.
Could a donor show up?
That's unlikely, right?
These days, I'm desperately hoping for
such a stroke of luck.
How long will it be before I can get a transplant?
Will I really get to live?
I don't want to die. I really don't.
That's all I think about.
All I can say is have hope.
Yes. I will be hopeful.
I'll grit my teeth and endure.
I'll get painkiller shots
until I'm bruised all over if I must.
I need to see my kids
settle down,
have babies, and living happily.
I can't die now.
I just learned the joy of living,
so I can't die like this.
So please help me get
a transplant, doctor.
I beg you.
He wanted to be Ms. Bae Gukhui's transplant donor.
The test says he's compatible.
He's the only viable donor for Ms. Bae.
The only viable donor...
Bom, can I see the meeting minutes?
Someone tested to be mom's donor.
And he's turned out to be compatible.
Really?
So mother can get the transplant?
But the nurses said he seems
to have changed his mind.
He must have gotten cold feet,
but he'll come around.
If he's gotten the compatibility test,
he must be
one of our family members.
I know it could be awkward,
but could we ask?
I heard at the hospital that
they found a compatible donor for mom.
Really?
That's great.
Our prayers have been answered.
Gukhui will live.
So why the long face?
They can't get a hold of him.
What do you mean?
But didn't he get tested on his own accord?
Yes.
But he must have gotten cold feet,
because of the surgery.
It must be one of our family members.
So you have no idea
who this person is?
I wish it were me, but I'm sorry.
I got the test result,
but I can't do it for various reasons.
I actually went to get tested
without telling you guys,
but they wouldn't even test me.
Remember my hepatitis when you were little?
I can't do it because of that.
But you made a full recovery.
So I was insistent, but
they said I can't, despite the full recovery.
Gukhui needs a healthy liver.
So who could it be?
I didn't get tested because
I'm a different blood type.
And Ms. Kim's too old.
Aunt Jeongmi was pregnant,
and Aran and Taeho can't do it.
Maybe a relative
got tested without telling us.
Doctor,
can't you call the donor
so we can convince him?
We won't ask for his name or number.
We'd just like to relay our desperation.
Please, doctor.
We can't disclose any information
without the donor's consent.
Then could you give this letter to him?
We'd like him to know
how much we love mom
and why she must live.
I'm sorry.
Please, doctor.
We beg you.
I must find out where father went.
He must be held accountable.
(Liver Donor Registration)
Father tested for transplant compatibility?
Why?
For what reason?
Aran, how are you feeling?
I have something to discuss with you.
I wanted to talk to you too.
My father-in-law...
What did you want to discuss?
Someone who got tested has turned out
to be a match for mom.
Really?
That's great.
So once mom gets the transplant...
But he can't be reached.
He's our only hope,
but he must have changed
his mind after getting tested.
This is absurd.
He could be my father-in-law.
He got tested for transplant compatibility.
Look.
No, this can't be.
Why would he give his liver to mom?
No way.
I think he's the one.
Then where is he?
If he got tested,
he must want to help mom.
He's on the run.
He fled overseas
to avoid incarceration.
I don't know where he is.
What do we do?
What about mom?
Why did he
even get tested then?
No way.
Are you sure?
I wish it weren't true either.
But it is.
I saw his registration papers for the test, and
we know it's not one of our family members.
He has to be it.
Why him?
He's fled and
won't do the surgery for mother anyway.
He plotted this to
drive us mad.
I'm devastated too.
How can An Gilsu be the only viable donor
when none of us can help mom?
Wait.
If it's true,
we must persuade him.
We'll beg and plead if need be.
We can't.
He's fled overseas.
Not even Aran or Taeho knows where he is.
But we must do something.
His wife must know.
Let's go ask her.
We'll go to the end of the world if we must.
He's doing this on purpose.
He's giving us
false hope to torture us.
That scoundrel An Gilsu...
How can that scoundrel be a match?
How dare you even get tested?
Don't die in front of me!
Don't you dare!
If you do,
people will blame me for it!
You would've rejoiced at my death.
Why did you get tested
so you could save me?
Did you feel sorry for me?
Was it pity?
Who said I wanted your pity?
Why?
Gukhui, you're outside.
That scoundrel An Gilsu...
What? What did he do this time?
He's not done harassing you yet?
It's nothing.
If he bothers you again,
I won't forgive him.
I'll pummel him to death.
Jeonggi,
I'm not going to resent him anymore.
What are you talking about?
I'll never forgive that lowlife.
If you think about it, he's a sorry soul.
He couldn't leave my side for 20 years,
haunted by the fear and guilt
of having abandoned Bom.
Don't go so easy on him.
He's worse than a beast, showing
no remorse or regrets.
He could be conflicted on the inside.
And at one point,
he dedicated his life to me.
I'm not going to resent him anymore,
so let's just forget everything.
Let's forget it all.
Why won't she resent me?
I'd rather you cursed me.
Tell me I deserve to be burned alive.
Despise me.
Mother, you know where father is, don't you?
Why? So what if I know?
Will you report him to the police?
No, of course not.
I'll take the blame for what he did.
I'll be punished in his place.
Do you mean that?
Really?
But why?
This isn't a ploy, is it?
Of course not.
So why the sudden change of heart?
Are you trying to lure him back
to hand him over to the police?
Of course not.
Here's my statement.
I listed all of father's wrongdoings as my own.
Embezzlement, forgery...
You'll take the blame for all these?
If you get father to return,
I'll sign that.
I'll go the police and
do whatever you want,
so get him to return to Korea.
You have an ulterior motive.
I'm sure of it.
Oh, my.
Your 30th wedding anniversary?
Yes.
So I wanted to do something special for her.
What do you want to do?
How about a pig roast in the courtyard?
Jeonggi, let's rent a dance hall
and have a wild party.
Dancing to upbeat music
will relieve her stress.
How about we visit Mother Nature?
We can do a treasure hunt.
A family picnic for your
wedding anniversary.
I think it's a good idea.
Mom seems to be doing better, so going
outdoors sounds good.
Hon, hon.
Come out for a second.
Hurry.
Why?
Something major is going on outside.
What is it?
You must see for yourself.
Come on.
Let's go, Gukhui.
- What is it, Jeonggi? / - You'll see.
Hurry up, Gukhui.
We're tired of waiting.
What's going on?
Today's an important anniversary for
the two of us.
So to celebrate,
we're going on a family picnic.
You're so silly.
Congratulations, mom and dad.
Thanks to you, I got my aunt to babysit Yeoreum
so I can really enjoy the spring weather.
Let's get going.
We'll be here all day.
Hang on.
We got something for the family.
Okay, everyone.
Take the sweatshirt with your name...
No. Take the sweatshirt you think is yours.
Wow. What's this?
(Kim Kkonnim)
Kim Kkonnim?
Who's Kim Kkonnim?
Oh, my.
This is my name at the senior citizens' center.
Is this mine?
You young folks are so with it.
Yes, grandma.
Like grandma's,
your nickname is on the back,
so don't take someone else's.
Let's see.
What's my nickname?
Granddaughter 1.
What are our nicknames?
There are two left.
I think they're ours.
We're here.
- Sorry we're late. / - Welcome.
I'm so happy you're here.
We'll really be here all day.
Let's get going.
Let's go.
Mom and dad,
happy 30th wedding anniversary.
Here come the bride and groom.
Bom and I got these
for your 30th anniversary.
Thank you.
Let's keep loving each other until
these gold rings
wear so thin that they break.
I wish you happiness.
Thank you for being my wife.
Thank you too.
Let's make more wonderful memories
and live happily.
Thanks, girls.
Our two guests of honor
will now cut the cake.
(Happy 30th Wedding Anniversary)
Be happy and healthy for another 30, no, 60 years.
Congratulations.
When will we get to do that?
Good grief, Taejun.
Jeonggi's as handsome as he was
on his wedding day.
And my daughter-in-law doesn't look
sickly at all and is beautiful.
Mom, why bring that up?
Wait. Aren't we missing something?
Huh?
Where's the kiss?
Kiss! Kiss!
Hurry up.
We're hungry.
How immodest.
I'll pretend I didn't see that.
Okay.
I got some tunes perfect for our family
at the rest stop,
so shall we let loose?
Standby. Go.
Mother,
will you dance with me?
Go ahead, grandma.
You're my partner.
Aran's a great dancer.
Spin away.
Why are you so off?
1, 2, spin.
Midal,
remember how we danced before we got married?
Our impassioned tango?
Geez, Taejun.
We should dance too.
You know I'm a terrible dancer.
Who cares?
Let's have some fun.
It's finally time for the treasure hunt.
There are gifts each of you
can put to good use,
so I hope you find them.
Mother, hurry.
I must find mine.
1, 2, 3.
Here.
How uncanny we should find it here?
Did you hide this?
You got me.
If the baby takes after you,
this will look great.
Oh, my.
What a great world we live in.
People wear this skimpy thing as underpants.
Mom,
let's all go to Europe next year.
We already got you a ticket,
so you can't back out.
Okay?
Mom.
(Lee Midal)
(Kang Taejun)
(Kim Eulnyeon)
(Bae Gukhui)
Last one, Gukhui.
All set.
Naming a sapling after me
makes me feel like I'm reborn.
Yes.
As these saplings are named after us,
they'll rely on each other
and live for one another
in good weather and bad.
That's right.
Let's all come back when
your tree flowers next year.
Yes, yes, yes.
How about a picture?
Smile, everyone.
Hurry up, Jeonggi.
Cheese!
Why did I come here?
(An Gilsu Wine)
Why is this...
Why is this still here?
(An Gilsu Wine)
I made a new wine.
I needed a name,
and I thought of you.
Let's drink this together
on a happy occasion.
I don't know if I'm worthy of this wine.
I had no idea our children were dating.
I didn't either.
But I'm very happy that
our family ties have led to this.
Do you remember the wine I named after you?
Let's have that wine
on their wedding day.
Bae Gukhui.
You've always trusted me.
You kept on trusting a scumbag like me.
Why did you trust someone like me?
My name is An Gilsu.
I'm turning myself in.
But
I have a favor to ask.
I need time.
Thank you.
Um...
I'd like to give my liver to Ms. Bae Gukhui.

Go, go.
You must be tired.
Rest your head here and take a nap.
All the merrymaking has worn me out.
Mom, are you okay?
Shh.
She's sleeping.
(Choi Jeonggi and Bae Gukhui's 30th Anniversary)
(30th Wedding Anniversary Picnic)
Let's go.
Hon, you must be tired.
I'm worried about how Yeoreum's doing.
- Let' go. / - Come on.
I had a great time.
Ms. Kim,
did you enjoy yourself?
Of course.
I even got these skimpy underpants.
But what good will they do
on my old, leathery skin?
Do you want these?
They were meant for me.
Forget it.
I'd rather wear them myself.
Go and get them.
You must be tired.
I had too much fun to notice.
Is mom still asleep?
Yes.
She must have conked out.
You girls go ahead.
It'll be better for her to sleep inside.
Really?
Gukhui.
Gukhui, we're here.
Gukhui. Gukhui.
Wake up.
Gukhui.
Gukhui!
- Mom! / - Mom!
Gukhui, wake up. Gukhui.
Mom.
Gukhui!
Open your eyes!
Gukhui!
