I'm looking for a child.
I heard you might know her.
She was taken by a family that ran a bakery called Jinsadang.
Jinsadang?
Yes. The owner's name is Choi Jinsa.
I think you're looking for the girl I did
a heart operation on. She's their youngest.
Heart operation?
Yes. She'd have died if it weren't for Jinsa.
He paid for the surgery and took her in.
I don't know his number right now
but I can ask someone who knows.
That's okay.
I know his bakery and his name so I'll look for him myself.
Aren't you Kim Juhui?
May I have an autograph?
I'm sorry.
Autograph...
[Haereum Hospital]
I swear it was Kim Juhui.
She was prettier in real life.
She came to see the doctor.
I have to go.
How can I help you?
I came to see the doctor.
- Have a seat. - Thank you.
Do you remember me?
I'm Seyeong, Choi Jinsa's youngest girl.
You're her?
Don't you need to go to the hospital?
It's not that bad.
Don't worry.
How did you burn your hand?
Were you distracted?
Donguk, will you step out for a minute?
Okay.
What is it you need to say?
Seyeong went to Cheonan to see Dr. Kim.
Did you tell her?
You told me not to.
She's been looking at her old pictures.
She asked about her time in the orphanage.
She said she'll go to Cheonan so I told her to look him up.
I told you.
You can baby her all you want but
she's drawn to her biological family.
She'll find them soon through Dr. Kim.
He said it wasn't for sure.
It's not like she's no longer your daughter if she finds them.
And from her perspective, this could feel a little too late.
I hope you aren't too upset by this.
Where are you going?
You told me to come over.
Is Mr. Choi in?
Now is not a good time.
Seyeong went to Cheonan to look for her family so he's a little upset.
Cheonan?
Why are you so surprised?
She made such a huge decision.
How did it go?
Seyeong.
If my parents are looking for me,
they'd have registered their DNA.
Yes.
But I registered mine.
Why aren't they calling me?
Why don't we check to make sure your DNA is really registered?
Ilyeong.
Ilyeong, I need to see you.
Is Seongsu back?
You left with him earlier.
Why are you looking for him here?
I need to talk to you.
When will you get the marriage certificate?
I know you want to be safe but the elders won't approve.
You're not kids and you're old enough to know.
Get the marriage certificate.
Seongsu will feel more responsible then.
If you're done, I should go now.
Did you understand what I said?
I did.
Tell Seongsu exactly what you told me.
I got so scared when I thought of getting the marriage certificate.
I didn't know if I could be a good provider.
I thought you'd be mad if I told you this in person, so I'm texting you instead.
I hope you understand.
Where are you going?
What's with that bag?
You can ask Seongsu that.
Hey, I'm talking to you.
Did you have another fight?
What is it?
Tell me.
I have nothing to say to you.
Ask Seongsu what's going on.
I have to go.
She's gotten into the habit of leaving.
Grandma.
Hello.
You must be here to see your family.
I should get going.
You can stay.
Bye.
What are you doing here?
Why did you bring your things?
I'm just visiting.
But you're married.
Did you have a fight with Seongsu again?
No.
He's been such a good husband ever since you made him that chicken stew.
Why did you bring your bag?
I have an important script to write
but my grandfather-in-law is sick
so I can't concentrate at home.
I'm going to work a few days.
Hello.
You're here.
I came for some bread.
Did you hurt yourself?
I burned myself as my mind was elsewhere.
What would you like?
Oh.
How is Seyeong these days?
Is her work getting to be too much?
She doesn't let those things show.
Have a seat.
Would you like some coffee?
That's all right.
Seyeong's very strong and cheerful.
She had heart surgery as a child but she went around playing with boys.
That's a big operation.
Is she okay now?
She gets checked up once every year but she's healthy.
What was she like as a child?
She was pretty and smart.
She was a bright young child.
When other kids teased her for being adopted,
she retorted that their parents had no choice but to have them
but she was chosen.
That's what she told them.
You must have been fond of her.
You can't help but love her.
At first, Iyeong was a little jealous of her
but later, they became great friends.
She was sweet to her mother, too.
They even slept in the same room.
When my wife was sick,
Seyeong nursed her by her bed.
She suffered after her mother died.
Do you regret bringing her home?
I don't like hearing that.
Seyeong was loved by all of us.
Please don't get any wrong ideas.
Why are you asking me this?
No reason...
I was curious to know how she grew up.
Are you okay?
Come in.
Get some rest.
I'll bring you something cold to drink.
- Have a seat. - Thank you.
Hello, I'm Choi Seyeong.
I've been thinking,
and I'd like to find my real parents.
Do you have a missing daughter?
Seyeong, your DNA isn't registered.
Pardon?
I was told I'd be registered.
You didn't do it yourself?
No, someone did it for me.
This can only be done by you.
Didn't you know that?
Would you like to register it now?
Watch where you're going!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Hello?
Jaeseong.
What is it? What's wrong?
Seyeong?
Jaeseong...
What is it?
What happened?
Where did you go with Seyeong?
We went to Cheonan and stopped by the police station to register her DNA.
What?
Are you insane?
Yes, I'm insane!
I wish I could go insane!
How can you do this to me?
If I knew you'd do this,
I wouldn't have told you everything.
You made me trust you!
How can you do this to me?
I wish I didn't know about this, either.
If I didn't know, I wouldn't be suffering.
Didn't you think the would happen?
The truth always comes out in the end!
What do you know?
Don't you know why I did this?
Don't act like you're so good!
This is killing me!
Thank you.
Thank you for calling me.
I guess I shouldn't ask what's happening.
What do you do when you're dealing with something that's too much to bear?
Did something happen?
No.
You should go now.
You should go first.
Okay.
What if she found out something in Cheonan?
Yes?
What are you doing here at this hour?
Why did you lie to me?
What do you mean?
I went to the police.
You didn't register my DNA.
No, I didn't.
Then why did you do what you did?
You got mad at me for not believing you.
You made me come here to apologize.
What happened?
You won't believe me if I tell you.
Try me.
It's because I was fond of you.
How does that make sense?
You don't even know me.
I don't have to have known you long for that.
I liked how strong and bright you were.
But your grandmother kept yelling at you to find your family,
so I did that to stop her.
You tried to stop her?
Yes.
Your grandmother didn't mention that again.
I'm sorry I lied to you but I did it for you.
You expect me to believe that?
If you don't want to, then fine.
Tell your family I lied.
Seyeong.
Did you see Dr. Kim?
Did you hear good news?
What happened to your hand?
Oh, I burned myself on the oven.
But I'm okay.
Why weren't you more careful?
Let's go to the hospital.
It's fine.
You must be tired. Go rest.
You go ahead.
I need to wait for the bread.
Donguk and I will do it.
No, you can't.
You might get hurt doing it.
That'll make me sad.
Dad.
It's okay.
Come on now.
Ilyeong's home.
Go say hi.
I heard you went to Cheonan?
How did it go?
Nothing happened.
Are you upset?
No.
Why would you think that?
I understand you want to find your family
but when you said you'll go to Cheonan,
I felt a little upset.
It's not like that.
Don't be upset.
I know.
It's just that I'm so selfish.
It'll be a good thing if you can find more people who can be on your side.
Don't worry about what I said.
What'll it be like if I meet my real mother?
It'll probably be great.
Are there mothers who wouldn't come to look for their daughters?
Yes.
There are many people who do that,
probably because the economy is so bad.
But that won't happen to you.
If your mom found a pretty, sweet girl like you, she'd come right away.
I like having you here.
This family needs you here.
Right?
Did you talk to Seongsu?
I'm so upset.
Why did they fight?
He won't say.
He said he'll take care of it.
But she left with her things.
What is he going to do?
I was going to ignore this but I have to do something.
Drink.
Okay.
What happened with Ilyeong?
Think of me as your father and tell me.
We went to get our marriage certificate, but I ran away.
What? You ran away?
I didn't know if I could be a good provider.
I thought I might ruin her life.
I'm the one who begged her to marry me but this was so terrifying.
You're not the only one.
It's not easy to provide for a family.
It still scares me, too.
I wasn't prepared for this marriage.
What am I going to do?
What can you do?
Go to her house and apologize.
And bring her home.
I'm scared.
Can't Misuk go instead?
How long will you let her cover for you?
You're no longer the middle schooler I met long ago.
You have to fight things head on even if they scare you.
That's how you grow up.
Try to figure this out on your own.
I'll tell my wife not to get involved.
Aren't you going to answer me?
I will.
Drink.
Yes.
Jaeseong.
Don't you know how to knock?
Will you look at this?
What's this?
It's my life plan.
Life plan?
Yeah. It has my goals, my direction in life, and the plans I want to achieve in life
You want to be a pastry chef?
Yeah.
I want to be a great pastry chef so I can bake bread and cakes.
I can study in France, too.
What do you think?
Dad won't send you.
Maybe you can study in Korea.
Where in Korea?
Ilyeong's family has a bakery.
You can learn there.
That's a great idea.
I didn't think of that.
If mom or dad asks, I'll tell them you gave me the idea.
Can you translate this into English?
You can use the internet to do that.
Use an online translation service.
They do that on the internet?
I wonder how mother is. She hasn't eaten.
- You're here. - Hey.
Where's mom?
She's in her study but she's not well.
I don't think you should bother her.
What happened?
She went to Cheonan.
Why?
I thought you were going.
She heard someone knows a girl like Yeonju, so she went there herself.
Did she find her?
I don't think so.
That's why she's so upset.
Hello?
Did you eat?
How is that important?
Mom went to Cheonan to look for Seyeong.
And Seyeong was there, too!
Why aren't you keeping better watch?
What are we going to do?
Did something happen?
She found out I didn't register her DNA.
How?
She went to the police.
Now she'll meet Juhui soon.
What are we going to do?
We?
I don't know anything about this.
Don't drag me into this situation.
You take care of this.
I have to find a way out of this mess.
Mom.
If it's not important, can we talk later?
Will you give me a minute?
I need to talk to you.
Have a seat.
I've been thinking.
I should tell you the truth.
What is it?
I told Jaeseong I won't marry him not just because of Seyeong.
There's another reason.
Another reason?
I don't want to lie to Jaeseong and his grandfather.
If you find your real daughter,
they'll know that I was adopted.
You can tell them first.
It's nothing to be ashamed of.
If you tell them first...
Will they understand?
If they learn I'm adopted,
they'll ask me about your daughter.
What do I tell them?
What if they ask me why I lied?
I know I have to endure this one day but it scares me.
What if everyone turns against me?
I don't think I can take it.
That's why I said I won't marry him.
Was I bad on the radio show earlier?
Your voice tone kept changing.
I kept notes during training...
Here they are.
Talk about six inches away from the mic,
and when stressing about double consonants,
take your mouth slightly away from the mic.
It's me. I want to see Seyeong.
Yes?
How is the news program coming along?
Fine.
We put out a notice for an assistant MC,
and we're scheduling auditions.
They have to be good but
their personal lives have to be in order.
You can find out about their past
by searching the internet.
I've been meaning to do the same.
I won't have to worry about you, though.
What?
You've led a spotless life.
I've never met anyone more upstanding.
I've never known you to have a scandal.
This news program will be the main program of our network, so it can't have trouble.
Come in.
Did you ask to see me?
You know the new announcers are participating in the auditions, right?
Yes.
Is everyone preparing well?
They're working hard.
Good.
Okay. You can leave now.
I said you can leave.
Okay.
Seyeong.
Yes?
No, never mind. Go on.
Oh...
She's back?
I told you not to come here!
I'm sorry.
I was wrong.
Where's address 34-5?
I'm afraid I don't know.
Oh.
I'm sorry.
I guess she's not coming.
What are you doing?
Get out.
Have a seat.
I'll be done in a minute.
This is my life plan.
I listened to what you said. I think I should really grow up.
I don't care.
Why should I look at your life plan?
Look at it.
I wrote it in English for you.
The grammar's all wrong.
So is your spelling.
Why didn't you write it in Korean?
That wasn't me.
I used an online translator.
Why didn't you do this yourself?
You used the internet?
You want to be a pastry chef?
Yeah.
I've been interested in baking.
To bake, you must be detail oriented and meticulous.
You have to be exact in the measurements and time.
You can't do this.
We'll see about that.
Want to go to Paris with me?
You want to wast your daddy's money?
No, I'm going to earn my way,
like I wrote in my life plan.
Oh, it's time.
I have to go to my dad's company to work.
I'll see you.
Hello?
This is the police station.
Your DNA search has had a match.
We'll give you their number.
Do you have a pen?
Hello?
Yes?
