Some time ago...
When they were killing all the cows and pigs from the swine flu or whatnot...
Yes.
At some event in Kangwondo, they gave a shot to a mother cow to kill her.
If they get that shot, they die almost instantly...
But a baby cow came mooing around...
to its mother and started pushing her with his little head...
wanting to nurse from her.
So this mother cow...with her legs shaking... stuck it out even though she was ready to drop.
And fed her little baby...
Even though she looked like she was about to fall, with her whole body shaking...
She stuck it out and stood there until her baby was all fed.
That's what a mother is...
But as a mother myself... I can't even do what I'm supposed to do...
I can't even do my duty as a mother... and I can't even take care of myself...
All I do is drain everyone of their money...
And all I'm doing is taking everything from my babies and just leaving...
I'm not even good as that cow...
I'm sorry.
For leaving all the burden on you for being the head of the household...
Mom is so sorry.
This kind of luxury is a first in my life.
To receive this kind of luxury from my daughter...
How is this luxury?
Just wait until after the surgery... I'll show you what real luxury is.
Oh my...my mom...my mom.
Save your affection for later, and wash my back too while you're at it.
You even had your body scrubbed yesterday.
I should make sure my body is clean...
If I was dirty, would a doctor want to perform surgery on me?
Do you think they wouldn't want to perform the surgery if you looked dirty?
Whatever.
Turn around.
My goodness...are you really going to be 70 in matter of days?
Your skin looks so young.
If you showed people just your back, they'd think you were a young lady.
All the men I've lived with says the same.
Even though I have nothing else to show, I have one killer back.
I know it's because you don't take care of yourself,
but you'd be so pretty if you did.
What's the use of being pretty?
Not being sick is the best.
That's right. Mom, don't be sick from now on.
Sung Ae!
How can you barge in without even knocking?
This reminds me of Tae Jin Ha. I'm sorry...I'm sorry...!
Come in.
What are you doing here so early in the morning?
Did you come to check to see if I was still alive or dead?
What nonsense! What a horrible thing to say.
How are you feeling?
I don't know, I feel out of sorts.
Are you getting married or something? Why feel out of sorts?
Did you get any sleep?
I didn't sleep.
I wondered whether I would ever be able to come back out after being wheeled in...
What I should say to each of my kids...
But I couldn't think of what I should say to them at all.
Whether I should say eat and live well...
Whether I should say I'm sorry for not being able to fulfill my parental duties...
Whether I should thank them for growing up so well with such a lousy parent...
What is there to say...?
It means don't give up yet.
Don't think about things like that, and stay strong.
I didn't even get any insurance that are offered everywhere...
When you turn on the television, all you hear about is people telling you to get insurance.
There are even insurance that tell you to get the insurance and live carefree until you die.
There are such insurances like that?
Yes.
I don't know why I didn't get any of those insurances...
I can't even be called a mother.
What nonsense...
Are you nervous?
I can handle it.
All that could happen is that I die.
If I don't handle it, what else can I do?
I'm proud of you, Mo Sung Ae.
Yes, you should think of it that way.
Don't be nervous... Just keep your wits about you.
My wit is coming and going, so I don't know if I can hang onto it.
A long time ago...
they say that even if you're dragged away by a tiger,
as long as you keep your wits, you can live.
But these days, they say as long as you keep your wits during surgery, you can live.
You have to live.
Don't forget that I will be waiting. Okay?
All your kids will be waiting too with their eyes wide open.
If you get anesthetized, it doesn't even hurt.
Just think of it as you're taking a nap.
-Yong Pal... -Be quiet!
If you have something to say, then survive this and tell me.
Doctor...please take care of her.
Even though I won't be doing the surgery myself,
I'm planning on going into the surgical room later.
Thank you for being so concerned.
Don't worry too much. Things will go fine.
Mom, this is nothing. Don't be afraid, and fighting!
Good luck mom, okay?
The best surgeons in the country are operating. We'll be waiting outside.
Wait.
No Ra...
What is it mom? Are you uncomfortable?
It's not that...
Before I die, I have to say this.
What is it?
The truth is...
-How do I say this... -Stop stalling, and say it.
What is it?
We have to go in quickly.
Mom, get the surgery first. You can tell me about it later.
-Mother, stay strong. -Do well mom, and don't worry.
You don't need to worry too much.
Rest easy.
What do we do, Dae Ra?
It makes no difference whether you're here or not. You go on.
If anything happens, call me.
If there's a need for me to call you, that's not good.
Don't worry and take care of work. Go on ahead.
Okay, Dae Ra. I'll go.
How's your mother?
She just went into the surgery.
There's nothing we can do since this is something you have to be a part of.
Because this is an anniversary broadcast.
Don't be concerned about it. It's the doctors doing the surgery anyways.
Still? What's taking so long? What if something is wrong?
Ask the doctor, Dae Ra.
Let's wait a bit. I'm sure they'll tell us if something's wrong.
If something happens, make sure to call me.
How's our mom? How did it go?
The surgery went well for now.
Thank you, doctor.
Thank you. How's her condition right now?
After being in recovery and there's nothing wrong, she'll be moved to her room.
The surgery went well?
Yes.
I knew it. A person doesn't die that easily.
What did the doctors say?
They said she's fine.
She's alright now.
If she survived the surgery, then she's fine.
You haven't even eaten yet, right?
If there's a patient in the household, the whole family will have to suffer.
I'll stay here, so go ahead and eat.
You have to eat and gain strength, so that you can take care of her.
Thank you. Then I'm going to go see the doctor.
Dae Ra, I'm coming with you.
Me too.
What does that mean?
Stop going in circles, and talk so we can understand.
Is our mom going to live or not?
Hold on.
Then the surgery didn't go well?
-We removed all that we could... -Then what's the problem?
But it's already progressed so much.
What does that mean?
If it's progressed?
The cancer cells were so closely attached to the blood vein, so we didn't get it all.
As soon as she's recovered, we need to start chemotherapy.
You're really killing me here...
If you can't even remove it all, then why even do the surgery?!
At first we estimated her to be in the early phase of stage 3...
But when we had her opened, she was already at the end phase of stage 3.
With lung cancer, when it's at that stage, it's usually too late.
Then are you saying that my mom isn't going to live?
I'm just letting you know that it's going to be difficult.
That's all the same!
Dae Ra. I really can't understand. You try and figure it out.
Doctor, but aren't there miracles in this world?
There are people who's lived even after being diagnosed at that stage.
Of course there are people like that.
However, I'm telling you about your average situation.
As soon as she recovers, start the chemotherapy treatment.
If that's not done properly, I heard people can die after painful suffering, right?
That's a misunderstanding about chemotherapy treatment.
It's not that you die because of chemotherapy.
but from the progression of the cancer, and you die of the disease.
With the advance in the medicine, there are almost no side effects.
And because it's not very expensive, people can live for several years from the pills.
Don't talk about other people, and talk about our mother.
Just tell us whether she can live or not.
It's already spread to other organs,
I can't predict what's going to happen from now on.
If a doctor can't predict, then who can?!
What the hell did you learn in medical school?
I'm sure you've learned in school,
so how can you not know after being a doctor for all these years?!
Did you go to a clown college or something?
stop speaking so rashly!
I'm sorry.
You know I'm right! If a doctor doesn't know, then who would know?!
Since a person's life is in God's hands, even doctors' can't vouch for it.
There are times when a person can live, even when they were on their deathbeds...
And times when people die when they thought they were going to live.
Who won't be able to say those words?!
Normally I'm the type to endure and just let it go,
but are you even a real doctor?!
Go wait outside. I'm really sorry, doctor.
Yes.
I'll tell you this again. In regards to patient Mo Sung Ae,
It's not with the goal of curing her,
but I'll be treating her to make her comfortable in the days that she has left.
What's this now? Curing her is not the goal?
Look!
-Let's out and talk. -Let go!
Look Doctor. Tell it to us straight. straight answers!
You look like you're fine, but how can your words come out like that?!
You have to tell us clearly so that we can figure out what to say to our mom!
Hey!
Let go!
-Why are you seriously being like this? -What about me? I'm right!
If he's a doctor, then he should tell us clearly like a doctor!
He's a fake fool.
Come on, come!
Control your temper!
Just because you 're a fake fool, you think everyone else is too?
What the hell are you doing to the doctor that's looking after our mother?!
You should know when to get angry... not just anywhere...!
Because of you, I can't even lift my head!
It's because he is ignorant!
If she wasn't even going to live for sure, why even operate on her?!
What kind of a bullcrap is this?!
What's our mom going to do now?
What do we say to mom?!
Dae Ra.
Let's not tell mother about this.
We should be thankful that she survived the surgery.
Since we're already doing this, let's do our best.
Let's do the chemotherapy, and do everything that's good for her!
We can save her.
Of course, we should save her.
Welcome! This is the world. It's definitely not the afterworld.
You're awake.
Why are you smiling?
Because I'm happy.
What?
Because I'm happy.
You're happy?
You smiled because you're happy?
See? Isn't it nice to live?
Even if it's crappy, this world is better.
Live with all your might.
Thanks for enduring it, Sung Ae.
Thanks for surviving.
Thank you for waiting.
I didn't have anywhere else to go.
I was waiting to tell you this when you came back alive...
Let's get married.
Let's get married quickly... and live in the countryside with clean air.
Okay?
The bandage hasn't even dried yet from the surgery.
Surgery or whatnot...
I'm the crazy girl who was all over the place from the fear of the surgery.
There's nothing one can do about one's personality.
But impatient ones are better.
Instead of making you frustrated for being late all the time.
That's true.
What about my kids?
You don't have a single filial child.
I knew those jerks would be like that.
I sent them away to eat something against their will.
Should I tell them to come?
Leave them alone to eat their food in peace.
How they must have worried...
If the hospital is saying that, it's like getting the death sentence.
We should get the funeral clothes ready.
There's so many things to do.
What did you just say?
She said we should get the funeral clothes ready.
The thing you dress the dead in?
Are you telling our mom to die quickly?
Do you think what you're saying is even right?!
Do get our mom ready for her funeral?
Don't misunderstand.
If old people get things ready, they can all of a sudden live long.
And if you try to do this suddenly, you can't even have a proper funeral.
Stop trying to make me out to be the bad person.
There's nothing bad about getting things prepared ahead.
Why you...
What are you doing?
Dae Ra, you stay out of it.
Look here, Eun Jong.
You think that our mom is dying, right? Our mom isn't going to die!
You don't have to worry about her funeral, or her burial clothing!
We don't need you, so go.
I guess this is why they say in-laws are just like strangers.
But you shouldn't have thrown away the food that she brought us.
You're no different, Dae Ra. Our mom is perfectly alive.
You want to get the funeral ready?
When did I say that?
That's not what I'm saying...
So unbelievable...
You can't believe it? What can't you believe?
How can you say something like that with our mom the way she is?
Honey, stop it.
Eun Jong and you both stay out of it!
Dae Ra, you go too! You're just like them!
My mom...I'll save her! I will!
My mom just got out of the surgery, so how dare you to say this?
Even if the funeral needs to be prepared, or the clothes picked out, I'll do it! Me!
Stop butting in without understanding what a person is saying!
Just ask anyone!
Whether getting things prepared in advance means for the mother to die quickly or not!
Seriously...you can at least get halfway if you just stayed quiet.
What?
Are you disrespecting me and calling me ignorant?
If I stayed quiet, I can get halfway?!
-Stop it, please! -Stop what?!
The daughter-in-law is wishing for the mother to die early, who can stand still for that?!
Just look at the way you speak.
-How can you be so deaf... -I told you to stop it!
Please be quiet!
Mother is laying in her bed like that...
Just what the hell are we doing, huh?
Please! Let's be quiet!
Team leader Na.
Out of all the specialties here, what about concentrating on the king crabs?
It's really famous.
The citizens of our country really likes king crabs. Don't you think?
Why don't we talk later?
I'm sorry sir, what did you say?
Let's try the king crabs this time.
What do you think? I think if we did well, it'll be good for this winter...
Dae Ra, what happened? Is the surgery over?
Then what?
Chemotherapy?
He says she needs chemotherapy?
For the remaining days of mother's life... let's do whatever we can.
Because it's already progressed...
They don't know how much longer she'll live.
They said she won't live long?
Does mom know?
I wasn't planning on telling mother.
Let's just keep in between us.
Greet her brightly, and do as you've always done.
So that she won't notice.
And even if it's just between us, we should think mother will live a long time.
Okay, Dae Ra.
We can talk about the details in Seoul.
How did it go?
It's not good.
Why?
Did something go wrong?
Don't concern yourself with me.
The manager is going to think something is up.
We're already broken up... but what if a rumor spreads at work?
I won't be able to go to work then.
I'm sure it doesn't matter to you since you're rich,
but I have to go to work no matter what.
Did the surgery go well?
Yes. Thank you for your concern.
It's nice that mother has a boyfriend. We can leave him with her.
Does mother really like japchae? (glass noodles with vegetables).
Our whole family goes crazy over japchae.
But when did you learn to make things like this?
You're good.
I've been making japchae for several years now.
I can marinade ribs too.
Good for you.
Stop staring. You're going to wear a hole in father's face.
Stop with the sighs too. If you're depressed, I'm depressed.
Mom, let's play go-stop.
I don't feel like doing anything.
Did you take your medicine?
There's no use of taking it. I don't know what's wrong with me.
It's a sickness of the heart.
Mom, let's make a bet. A bet for dinner. What do you want to eat?
I don't feel like anything.
If you don't feel like anything, why are you mixing up the cards?
Tell me...what do you want to eat?
Noodle soup.
In anchovy broth.
Okay. I want mixed noodles.
Mom! Mom!
Is it Goo Hyung?
What should I do? Should I not open the door?
If we don't open the door, he's going to throw a fit.
Shin Hyung isn't even here...
For now...open the door.
What brings you here?
This is my own home too, why can't I be here?
How dare you to speak so rashly?
Why didn't you open the door sooner?
I didn't hear it because I was listening to music.
Where is my stepmother?
Stepmother...
Stepmother!
What...brings you here?
All asking the same question... what do you think brings me here?
Did you come here to cause a drunken ruckus again?
Good for you. I'm going to cause some ruckus tonight.
Goo Hyung!
I saw that you have forbidden me from coming into the store?
That's my father's precious store.
What right do you have to stop me from going in there?
I'm the firstborn of this family.
Who the hell are you to forbid me from going into the store?! Huh?!
Why are you being like this?
You're going overboard! Who do you think you're yelling at?!
You stay out!
Goo Hyung!
What are you doing? Huh?
Get out of here before I call the cops!
Go ahead. Call the police.
I said go ahead. Go ahead!
You don't think...I will?
How can you be so disrespectful?!
You make me so angry and it's unfair!
That's what I should be saying. I'm the one who's angry and feels unfair!
You've alienated me from my father,
and ultimately you didn't even let me see him when he passed.
How are you going to make up for that?
Aren't you even afraid of the Gods?
Stepmother...
Let's end this tonight.
This isn't going to work. So Hyung...report this to the cops.
Report to the cops?
And you call yourself a mother?
You raised me like your own?
Shin Hyung's father!
Mom!
It's not Shin Hyung's father, but Goo Hyung's father!
Open your eyes!
What can you talk like that?! Mom just collapsed!
You're really crossing the line!
I'm crossing the line?
Do you know how I grew up because of my stepmother?
She farted and denied that she did, and blamed it on me.
And because of that, I got beat up by father.
Saying the stench was obvious... but saying that I denied that I farted...!
And I got beat up like a pulp by father for lying...did you know that?
Why are you talking about farts during this situation?!
It may just be a fart to you...
But even hearing the word fart makes me upset, and I get sad whenever someone farts.
Thanks to my stepmother...
my nickname was a fartface.
Stepmother...
Stop with the acting and open your eyes.
End this with me tonight!
Mom! Wake up! Mom!
Mom!
Mom...
Mom, are you okay?
At this rate, I'll be the one to die.
We're almost at the hospital. I called the housekeeper to come to the house.
Mom, just wait. I'll go get you admitted.
My heart's pounding and my head hurts...
Call the housekeeper.
Ahjumma, where's Goo Hyung? (Ahjumma=middle aged women).
Still?
What?
Okay.
What do we do? She said he's searching around the house.
How unbecoming...
This isn't going to work.
If you go, it'll be worse!
Stay here. I'll go.
Go quickly and stand guard. Don't let him touch anything. Hurry.
Ta da!
Japchae that you like.
And the thing that you really like...ta da!
Mussels. I was told you'd wake up from sleep for this, so I made it.
My incision spot isn't even healed yet.
If I was in any condition to eat this, I wouldn't be in the hospital.
I would have ran home already.
You can't eat it? It's not like you have stomach surgery.
I thought it would be okay.
I was told to eat porridge for awhile.
See? I told you we should make porridge.
I told you I don't like porridge.
But mom... what is it that you have to say to me?
Huh?
Before you went into the surgery, you said you had something urgent to tell me.
Like the last time when we went away to the oceanside.
What is it?
It's nothing.
Tell me.
It doesn't matter if he hears, right?
I'm good at pretending I didn't hear anything. From being cautious since I was little.
Hey, for someone who was so cautious, how can you be so dense?
Mom...what is it?
What else would it have been? It's to tell you to wake up and live well.
Was that so urgent for you to say?
What's more urgent than that? That's my biggest worry.
Don't smell up the hospital with this, and you guys eat it somewhere else. Hurry.
What smell is this? So unbecoming...
Who are you?
There's no need for you to know that... this is my spot.
There are people who has their own spots in the hospital?
Don't talk back to me, and just move.
If I can't look out the window, I can't handle it.
What's there to look at in the middle of the night?
You sure do talk a lot...
Just move.
I just had surgery this morning.
If I could walk over there by myself, I would've ran home already...
I wouldn't be wasting money and sitting here.
Seeing you walking in here with your own feet, you're not even a very sick patient.
I'm...very close to just collapsing.
Even though my outward appearance is fine, my insides are all rotted.
Even though my outside looks just rotted, my insides are rotted to the core.
Forget it.
Oh my my...such speech...so unbecoming.
You're shamelessly laying in my spot, and keep talking back like that?
If I collapse, are you going to take the responsibility for it?
To say take responsibility is like saying to have you live with me...forget it.
Rather than have you live with me, it's better to move even if I collapse myself.
What mom? Do you need to go to the bathroom?
No. Why aren't you eating?
Since you're not eating, I just sent him away.
But why?
She told me to move.
Why?
She said this is her regular spot.
Where is there such a thing?
Is it for real?
Of course it's real. You think I'd lie?
I seriously can't talk to you guys.
Look at you...you're the one who can't understand. What rubbish!
Ahjumma...
Leave it. I don't need to look out the window so I'll just move.
You stay out of this, mom.
Ahjumma, are you really a patient in this hospital?
You're not even in the hospital gown, so how are you a patient?
I don't wear things like hospital gown. It's so unbecoming.
I have my own clothes.
Like this.
And...I'm not an Ahjumma.
Then should I call you grandma?
Call me Madame.
Madame?
I don't know if you're a young lady, or an Ahjumma...
but call me Madame.
Ahjumma? How do I look like an Ahjumma?
What nonsense...!
If you call me Madame, I'll call you young lady.
You two are the same.
What is it?
I didn't call you.
Oh, I called you.
Nurse...this window bed is my spot, right?
Have her moved, or have her kicked out.
You know my preference...
If I come to the hospital, I either use a private room, or this bed by the window.
I'm sorry. We don't have an empty room tonight.
And the spot...two of you can take care of it. I'm sorry.
I'd usually endure it and just let it go, but I really can't hold it back.
Ahjumma, no Madame...
You want to go a round with me?
Look at the way you talk... What do you mean, go a round?
My daughter has some temper.
Don't regret it after upsetting her, and just use that other bed for today.
What do you mean, just today? You use this bed here.
Madame!
My head...my head, my head...
Why are you laying down? Why don't you and I talk?!
It's obvious. You're a fake patient.
You think this is a hotel or something?
-Don't do it. -Don't do what?
That's why I said we should get a common room.
They said there aren't any common rooms. They said to wait until a room is available.
Madame. If you act like that one more time, this young lady won't stand still to take it.
Try to touch my mom... as you can see, I can take care of things!
Madame!
Change your clothes and lay down. the hospital gown that you brought.
This is the last time I'm giving you an advance.
Here. A month's worth.
We don't even have customer's these days, so make sure to bring them in!
You shouldn't be doing this...
Do you know how much money we've spent getting you out of the police station?
I'll pay it back by next month.
Next month?
You promised with your own lips.
You know what happens if you don't, right?
No one's here?
No one's here.
-I'm about to go crazy... -This is something else.
You idiots. Does this even make sense?
How is the house completely empty whenever you go there?!
How many times has it been already?
That's...it's unbelievable to us too.
No matter how, you should grab them.
Do you know how much the train tickets to and from Seoul cost?
If you just give us the motel fee, we'll sit out there and make sure to get him.
Where's the money?
Just be homeless. Homeless!
We can't be acting homeless in Seoul.
It's prohibited.
It must be nice for you to know so many things.
Get back up there.
If you don't get them this time, you know, right?
Your delivery is here!
Black bean noodles.
Hey! It's not Jjajangmyung. It's jajangmyun. (Pronunciation of the dish has changed)
It's been reverted back.
The larger size is here.
See? Jjajangmyun. Now it sounds tasty for me to eat,
what the heck is jajangmyun, huh?
It's not like a toothless old man, it sounds like a dish you'd fall asleep eating.
Jajang, jajang... (Korean lullaby)
I cleaned the whole house, and threw all the trash out.
There was so much trash in nooks and cranny. I'm really good at cleaning.
I used to get complimented about my cleaning from the orphanage director.
You there...keep it down.
So unbecoming... is this your first time at a hospital?
I'm sorry. It's just that I'm happy whenever I see mother.
If you liked her any more, this hospital would be in chaos.
I'm sorry. I'll keep quiet.
Just go now.
I'll go when No Ra gets here.
-Mother. -Mother.
I brought something for you to eat.
I get things to eat from the hospital, you didn't have to make anything.
You're all really being too much... I can't watch TV., or sleep.
Did you pay for this to be your private room?
I'm sorry.
What did you come here for? I told you two to not to come.
Stop it.
We didn't come here to see you, we came here to see mother.
Why? Did you come here to measure her funeral clothing?
-Hey. -What? Did I say something I shouldn't?
Be quiet. There's another patient in the room.
Who cares? If you come for a visit, you should talk and laugh.
Don't you have any kids, Madame? Why are you alone?
You know that we're normal, and that you're abnormal, right?
Did I say something?
It's not good for the hospital room to be too quiet.
I'm sure you're bored yourself,
so listen to us and laugh if you want to, and get mad if you want to.
Well then...everyone who should leave, should leave.
You go on home. You stayed here last night too.
I'll do it. I have nothing to do anyhow.
That'll be good.
Forget it. Everyone go. I'm going to stay here.
Why doesn't she just go...!
Goo Hyung that jerk...
My goodness, all the good things are here.
Who's money is all this?
This is all designer, right?
Stop it!
I was wondering where this was.
I said stop it!
What's the number?
How would I know?
Call your mom.
If you keep this up, I'm really going to report this to the police.
How can you be so brash when father just passed away so recently?
Don't you feel bad for our mom at all?!
What's to feel bad about your mom? I'm the one you should feel bad about.
What do you mean, your mom? Aren't you a part of our family?!
You think I'm your family?
It's because you keep behaving so horribly!
How can you be so like your mom even in the way you speak?
You're like her parrot.
You try being good first and see if I'd be like this.
All you do is drink everyday and scream...
And you come at our mom and behave horribly.
I'm so humiliated to face the neighbors!
That's the only memory I have of you.
You have to act like an older brother to be treated like an older brother!
You're really coming at me.
Hey wench...whether you like it or not, you and I share father's blood.
Even if it's half, we're still siblings!
You don't even know...
Do you really want to be like this after sending mom to the hospital?!
Doesn't your mouth hurt?
Stop acting out, and get me some snacks.
Whatever!
Call your mom and tell her to stop acting, and to come home right now.
That's all our father's money, you know that?!
Still?
I'm so upset. He's drinking liquor right now.
Once he starts drinking liquor, he can polish off two bottles...
How much has he had to drink?
He just started.
I don't think he'll be leaving tonight.
Should I come to the hospital?
Don't come here. You need to protect the safe.
You didn't tell him the combination, did you?
I don't even know the number.
I don't even want to be in the hospital because of some thug like young lady...
I get scared whenever I see someone with big eyes and a loud voice...
I wish I could just come home.
Make sure he doesn't get into the safe.
Yeah.
I was wondering where you were, but here you are.
Yes.
Our family is gone, so go on in and sleep.
As long as you don't start anything, I won't start anything either.
And just don't bother my mom.
I won't bother her.
I don't even have the energy to bother her because I feel so weak.
By this week?
Ms. Lee said she doesn't have any money.
Do you believe that?
Where am I supposed to find $10,000?
I'm not saying find it elsewhere, but from you.
You must think that I have another pocket or something...
but you know the state of our household.
How long has it been since Jin Sang has become unemployed?
With what I earn, and the money you give, you know we barely get by raising the kids.
Are you really going to put me in a bad mood first thing in the morning at breakfast?
How well do you want to eat and live? I'm not eating.
Foolish idiot.
Don't you even have anything to say when your wife is screaming at your father?
So humiliating.
Why is he seriously being like that?
Can't we...just do it for him?
Just like others, we can lend it out and charge him interest too.
Just like others? Then do you think I have money too?
Even if Han River dries up, your pocket won't dry up.
Hello?
Were you sleeping?
Just for a minute...
Hey! If you keep this up, know that there's no rice cooker.
What rice cooker?
You asked me to find you a large rice cooker that they use at a restaurant.
I was so busy earlier, and didn't get to tell you...
But if you're not going to give me the money, then divorce Jin Sang.
Just know that and sleep well.
Father. Father!
What are you singing for? You don't even know how your wife feels.
What's wrong with my wife now? You seem fine.
Do you know what your father said on the phone?
I wouldn't know.
What conversation may have conspired between you two that are closer than me,
how would this servant who went to throw out the trash water know?
Are you kidding?
Of all things...
What?
Does it even make sense for a father-in-law to be telling the daughter-in-law to divorce?
And over the phone on top of that? 'Get a divorce, and get some sleep'. Click.
I'm so flabbergasted. Seriously.
Father told us to get divorced? He really told us to get divorced?
What?
Jo Jin Sang!
I don't even know why I'm living with him.
It's me, Yong Pal. Did you get some sleep?
What about food?
I ate a little.
The sky is so blue, and the weather is nice.
Can you see it?
Keep it safe so I can look at it later.
I care about you a lot. You should say it too.
I can't say things like that.
How can you say things like cherish and care so easily when it makes me cringe to say?
You say you can't say it, but you are saying it all.
I'm uncomfortable with the patient next to me, so I'm just hanging up.
From the looks of it... it doesn't seem like your husband...
By any chance..is this it?
By any chance?
-To be honest...to have this, you don't look... -What did you say just now?
What's wrong with the way I look?
Is there a law that says I can't have this with the way I look?
Don't look down on me because of the way I look.
What's wrong now? What is it?
I'm holding back because I'm afraid my daughter will start something with her temper.
Madame. Did you bother my mom again?
No...why would I bother her?
Just...we were having a conversation, and we have different tastes...
Young lady, let's let this pass.
Why do you keep calling me?
Mom, it's me.
Hi. Where are you?
I'm on my way back to Seoul. Are you okay mom?
It's so nice to hear your voice.
Is there anything you want to eat?
Tell me your wish. I'll grant it whatever it is.
Okay mom. I'm going to arrive in the afternoon.
Is your mother okay?
Yes. After hearing her voice, she seems to be okay.
That's a relief.
When an old person is sick at home, it creates a headache.
I'm sure we'll all get old and die sometime, it still is a pain.
My mother suffered for several years before she passed away.
After awhile...I started to wish that she would pass away quickly.
That's what a person's heart is like.
Don't worry.
A school teacher should worry about teaching the students,
you shouldn't be worrying about your mom.
The hospital is taking care of me, so don't worry and hang up.
My mom is so busy taking calls from your boyfriends and your kids.
How are you sick that you're here alone?
Don't you have any kids?
Why wouldn't I have kids?
Only kids who has nothing to do following their mom around.
My kids are too busy doing amazing things, they have no time to follow me around.
Kids who has nothing to do?
My firstborn is a school teacher.
My fourth works at a broadcasting station,
and my third is busy in America right now working on his doctorate.
Normally I wouldn't brag about my kids in front of others, but..
if I started to brag about them, even a day wouldn't be enough to do that.
Do you have a kid working on a doctorate in America?
There's no need to get mad.
What amazing thing could they be doing that,
they can't even show their face when their mom is sick?
This is the first time I've seen someone walk in and admit themselves in the hospital.
Now that I look at it, you really have a sad life.
No matter how hard you worked raising your kids, there's no use.
Would you like to have some of this?
What is it?
Blood sausage they sell at the market.
I don't eat things like blood sausage from a market.
Unless they're selling it at the mart.
Market, mart...same thing.
Try it. Market blood sausage is good.
Take her some.
No thanks. I'm not eating it.
Just try it. Instead of asking for it when it's gone.
Mom. Let's go exercise.
Little.
What happened?
Goo Hyung left. You want me to come and get you?
No.
I'll go.
Every single one of her kids cared for their mother so much...
You're useless, and you're useless too.
Mom, I'm just getting back from a business trip right now.
I was going to go to the hospital but came straight home because you were coming home.
I was so envious, I was getting teary eyed.
Had I known it was going to be like this, I would've had more kids.
She made a doctor child, and even a thug child.
You want to make a thug child?
Sometimes a child like that is the best.
There are so many uses for a child like that.
Hey...you guys hurry up and get married.
Get married and bring me a daughter and son in-law with some grandkids.
It's just too lonely otherwise.
Just who are these people to have my mom so worked up?
Is it that grand of a household?
Just tell me. I'll go and yell at them.
If it was a grand household, at least I wouldn't be this upset.
That household barely seems to be getting by.
But they're acting like that?
Son, son-in-law, daughter, daughter-in-law all came marching in,
and started crying 'mom, mom', and shaking in fear that something might happen to her.
If I'm going to get a daughter-in-law, it should be from a household like that.
You said they're barely getting by. You don't like households like that.
I've changed my mind after seeing that family.
All it matters is that the siblings have a good relationship,
and they know how to care for their parent.
And there's a lot of affection too.
That daughter was a total thug.
Having a child like that in your family must be reassuring too.
No one will disrespect you.
Our mom totally fell for them.
Do you guys even know how to fight?
You guys won't even be able to do or say anything while your mother is being captured.
I should have asked if they had an extra daughter or something.
What nonsense...
What did the hospital say?
What do you think? It's stress sickness
And a mental stress on top of that.
This is a sickness that'll go away if I get a good daughter-in-law.
Mom!
You're here early.
My mom got even prettier.
She says her body feels light as a feather after getting all that removed.
Are you okay?
All I can think about is getting discharged from this hospital soon.
All I'm doing is racking up the bill from the surgery and laying in that hospital room.
Don't worry about things like that.
It's not like the money falls from the sky, so how can I not worry?
Stop worrying about money, and worry about your health.
You think between the 3 of us, we can't pay for the surgery?
What's with the stares?
You think I'm always going to live like this?
I can just pay for it.
Think before you speak.
That's what I'm saying.
Don't worry. My regular customers will expand once I'm discharged.
Other than just the factory and the salon, the other factory wants me to make their food.
When I'm out, I'm going to do theirs too.
No Ra can help too.
I'm going to do that. You should also stop doing that now, and just rest.
A person should be kept busy, it's no good to just sit still.
I've been doing this take out restaurant for so many years now...
I should set up a restaurant of my own in style before I die.
Don't you think so?
Don't cry in front of mother. She'll notice something's wrong.
What does the hospital say?
She has to do the chemotherapy, and they have to look at her situation.
I don't know how much more mother can stand.
I know there are people who can overcome it, but there are people who has a hard time too.
They say there are people that has such a hard time that they just give up.
How much longer did they say she'll live if she gets the chemotherapy?
I'll go and see the doctor.
It'll be the same story.
Getting her completely cured is not the goal.
But it's a treatment to make things less tormenting for her until she passes away.
What do we do...
Ah Ra.
Marry Shin Hyung.
Why are you talking about marriage in a situation like this?
Do it.
What mother wants is for you to get married and live well.
The day before mother got the surgery...
She said it's her last wish.
I'm not getting married.
Even if I do, I'm going to get married after mom is better.
We don't know what's going to happen with mother.
So...get married while mother is still around.
Let's make mother happy.
There's no one like Shin Hyung.
I know. There's no one like Shin Hyung.
Someone like that... I won't meet again in my lifetime.
Do you think this was an easy decision for me?
I dated him for 7 years.
Breaking up with him wasn't easy.
You know that too.
Whenever the phone rings still, I wonder if it's Shin Hyung.
Whether it's good news or bad news, I think of Shin Hyung first.
Whenever the weather is nice, I want to call him...
And when it rains, I want to send him a text.
But I'm holding it back.
Even if I run into him at work, I put an effort into avoiding him.
You fool...
So...don't talk about that anymore.
You live your life... and I'll take care of mother.
It's not just because of mom. It's because my heart isn't at peace.
I can't leave mom and get married.
I'm not worried about anything else right now.
My main concern is what we do about mom, and how to pay for her treatments.
You can't handle this alone.
Ga Ra will be back this year too...
Then Ga Ra and I will take care of it.
Dae Ra...
I know how you and mom feel... just leave this to me. Okay?
People are just dying to get into that lesson school.
They want to pay you well and scout you, so why are you saying you hate the idea?
We need money.
Teaching the students are the same anyways.
Who cares if it's a school, or if it's a lesson school?
Welcome.
Give me one scratch lotto ticket.
There's nothing I can do for her.
That's driving me crazy.
Even when I tell her to grab my hand, she won't grab it.
There's nothing I can do for you either.
I'm lost.
I drank.
I know.
Ah Ra!
Go home, wash your feet and sleep.
Ah Ra.
Open the window. Huh?
Ah Ra.
I can't be without you.
We can't break up.
How can we break up?
Can you live without me?
I'm asking if you can live without me.
I know you can't live without me either.
Let's not be like this.
We can't break up like this.
We made a promise.
To never break up again...
Ah Ra...
Ah Ra!
It's not like your heart has changed...
and my heart hasn't changed...
You fool...
Open the window.
Open the window, you fool...
Tell us how we're going to pay the hospital fees.
Of course you and Dae Ra should pay the hospital fees.
You said you would do it.
But delivering food isn't the answer.
-You have to deliver alcohol. -Alcohol delivery?
We're the matchmaking service.
We'll make sure to find the daughter-in-law that you're looking for.
What kind of school teacher are you? All you do is yell.
You little...
Kill me, save me... Always telling us what to do...
Are you jealous?
Go away before you feel more for her.
If a man gets emotionally attached, you won't be able to leave.
Come to the restaurant we used to go to. I'll be waiting.
-Don't wait. -I'll be waiting until you come.
It's been awhile, right?
You said you'd buy my a beer if we ran into each other.
Ah...KTX...
