Mom.
Mom!
Mom! Mom!
Sir, please hurry!
- Mom! - Mom! Mom!
Mom...
What are we going to do?
I have to go to the network.
You're unbelievable.
You're going to work at a time like this?
Don't be stupid.
Mom's a public figure.
If people find out she's sick.
they're going to talk about it in the papers.
Something might happen to her program.
I'll take care of everything
so don't tell people what happened.
Yerin!
Don't.
I think she's right about this.
You really brightened up our show
Thank you.
Why don't you try this, too?
What's this?
There's an artist who has inherited
knowledge of the Arirang song.
But the artist has refuses all TV
appearances since a few years ago.
Did she have a bad experience on TV before?
I don't know.
But maybe you can make a visit.
Kim Juhui is in the hospital?
She must have been working too hard.
I guess she's not what she used to be.
She couldn't withstand this much tension?
It's not a big deal so
don't let this leak to the press.
If this gets out,
the news program will be in danger.
Please.
Seyeong's transfer hasn't been approved.
What if one of us has to go?
Wait.
Ms. Kim said she'll sign after her show.
She seems to favor Seyeong, don't you think?
Hyeri, is gossiping a hobby of yours?
No, it's...
Don't pay attention to the things that don't
concern you and do your jobs right.
I have to go on leave.
Why?
Something's come up.
- Hyeonmo. - Yes?
Will you do my 2 o'clock radio for me?
You'll be with another MC.
It shouldn't be too hard.
Me?
But I haven't even prepared for it.
You must rise to the occasion.
How will you do TV later
if this is too hard for you?
Operating Room
It's an acute myocardial infarction.
She needs surgery right away.
Hello.
You're Kim Okja, aren't you?
May I help?
Maybe she can't hear you.
That's not it.
I'm good at washing blankets.
No thanks.
You remind me of my grandmother.
I'll do it.
Oh, it's so cold.
My grandma says you can get the dirt out
by stepping on the blankets like this.
She's really stubborn.
I don't think she can be persuaded.
I'm not doing this for the network.
I just want to help her.
Washing blankets like this reminds me
of my grandma.
I wonder if Seyeong got an apartment.
I'll have to go see her.
I'll come with you
She must be having such a hard time.
You're too weak to travel.
Gangneung's not far away.
You won't let me go?
I'll take you once you're all better.
I have a lot to say to her.
I can't believe she went there even
after she found her mother.
I'll take Jihyeon and go myself.
I'll bring her things.
Yes, make sure you take everything.
Seyeong loves pickled peppers.
Will you take some to her?
Sure
Where did I see her?
Why are you muttering to yourself?
It's Mr. Choi's neighbor.
I know I've seen her somewhere,
but I don't remember.
You're letting this bother you?
Why don't you go back there and see?
Maybe I should.
I'm so distracted I can't do any work.
What did Jaeseong say?
We have to tell father about
Juhui's daughter
and the fact that Yerin was adopted.
When do I bring it up?
If we don't become in-laws with Juhui,
he never has to know.
But he's so fond of Yerin.
Can't you talk this over with Juhui?
She won't let me see her.
She says she's a very busy person.
How's mom?
The surgery over
but we haven't heard anything else.
How's my mother?
She had a weak heart to begin with.
The hospital has records of it, too.
She'd been taking good care of herself, but...
Has she been under a lot of stress lately?
She was working too hard recently.
We put in a stent.
We'll have to see the results.
When she wakes up.
we'll take her to her room.
Thank you.
Your call will be forwarded to an...
Why won't the call go through?
Who are you calling?
I have to tell Yeonju.
Stop it!
Hey.
Mom didn't faint because of her work.
She's stressed out over Seyeong.
Do you want to see mom get sick again?
Don't call her.
Ma'am? What do you think
Why can't she just sing a song on TV?
You'll probably have to visit her 1000 times
before she agrees to it.
I'll have to, if that's what it takes.
I feel like I want to conquer this.
This is exciting for you, huh?
How's Seyeong?
She was made for the field.
She's a country girl now.
Hah.
I'll have to go see her myself.
Did something happen to Yerin?
Why?
I was listening to the radio
and Hyeonmo was hosting her show.
And Ms. Kim didn't come to work.
Really?
I didn't care so much before, but now that
it effects Seyeong,
I'm a little concerned.
Will you try calling her?
I wonder what's going on.
Yeah.
Your call will be forwarded to an...
She won't pick up.
What if something happened to her family?
I'll try calling Minguk.
I can't believe Minguk is Seyeong's brother.
Minguk, it's me
I heard Ms. Kim didn't come in to work.
And Yerin didn't come to do her show, either.
Did something happen?
What?
Okay...
Well? D id something happen?
She's at the hospital.
Hospital? Why?
She's been out of surgery for hours.
Why won't she wake up?
Her vitals are normal and the surgery
went well, so try to be patient.
What if something else is wrong?
Sometimes, these instances happen
but you don't have to worry.
Let me know if she wakes up.
Thank you.
I'll stay here.
Bring some her things from home.
Yes, let's do that.
We'll be back soon.
Mom.
Mom wake up.
What am I going to do if you're sick?
I'd rather be the one to be sick.
I can't bear to see you like this.
I'm so sorry.
Mom, are you feeling better?
Mom, it's me. Yerin.
Yeonju.
Can't you come for a camera test?
Gieun.
Will you quit annoying me?
Come on.
It's bad enough I have to deal with her.
Why is Seongsu adding to this?
Hello.
Is Seyeong's grandmother in?
Our neighbor took her to the doctor's.
I should have called first.
Is Seyeong's father in?
He went to the market to buy supplies.
That's too bad.
May I talk to you?
I heard you were seeing Gieun.
Are you two still seeing each other these days?
Like I said,
I'm not interested in Gieun.
Why aren't you interested in her?
She's not my type.
She's such a great girl.
She's pretty, skinny, and cute.
She's in Korea's top 1%.
I don't know why a girl
like Gieun is after me.
She's after you?
She's probably just curious.
You can't clap with one palm.
You must have done something
to encourage her.
Try to be careful.
Okay.
I need to ask you for a favor, too.
What is it?
Mom!
Hey!
Why are you hitting me?
What's your problem?
You don't know why I'm doing this?
What do you think you're doing?
I asked you not to see Donguk!
But you're trying to make him an actor!
What is wrong with you?
Where are those scissors?
I'll have to shave your head first, Seongsu!
You're just like your husband.
Why do you always threaten to shave my head?
Mom, you're a rational person.
Can't we talk about this?
You saw Donguk yourself.
Isn't he handsome?
I mean, be honest.
He's good looking.
And he's a great singer, too.
He sings well?
That's not all.
He speaks English like a native.
He's ready to go global.
He can speak English?
- Yes! - Yes!
I see.
I knew she'd understand.
You thought I'd fall for that?
Don't let your anger get to you.
Can't you think rationally about this?
I can't be a secretary forever.
I can hit it big if I turn him into a star!
I don't care what happens to you.
You're trying to ruin your niece's life?
It's a good thing my husband doesn't know.
If he did, he'd shave both your heads.
Don't you let me catch you with him.
I'm going to tell my husband.
Do you understand?
Yerin.
We met out front.
What happened?.Is she very ill?
The surgery went well but she's unconscious.
Did you call Seyeong?
Not yet.
Why not?
Her mother is sick.
Seyeong has to know.
If you can't, I'll do it.
Don't.
I said don't do it!
Seyeong has to know.
Do you think she wants to know?
What?
She left so she could get away from mom.
She won't come even if we call her.
Seyeong is Ms. Kim's daughter.
She'll come if she hears that
her mother is sick.
Do you really believe that?
She left so she can keep her old life.
What if she doesn't come after we called?
Mom will go into shock when she finds out.
I've to put my mom first.
I don't have time to think about her.
Seyeong!
Auntie!
Jihyeon!
What are you doing here?
I came to bring you your things and to see you.
Did I keep you waiting?
Why didn't you call me?
You didn't pick up.
I was in an area with no reception.
You must have called me then.
You know Jeonghyo, right?
You must be tired from the trip.
It wasn't that far.
Please take good care of Seyeong.
Are grandma and dad well?
Grandma's very worried about you.
She wanted to come today, too,
but we thought she was too weak
I see.
Jihyeon, do you like this place?
Yes, it's so nice.
Right?
Why don't you live here with me
instead of going to Seoul?
What about mom?
She has to go.
But you're already in the second grade!
You're old enough.
No!
You're hard to please, huh?
I'm glad you came.
Seyeong, you should be with your mother.
It's too bad you can't.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth sooner.
What did the doctor say?
He said I've become very weak.
Grace got me some medicine.
I was planning to do that myself
Let me know how much it cost.
That's okay.
It's the thought that counts with these gifts.
I hope you'll accept it
That's so nice.
Did Iyeong arrive in Gangneung?
Yes She'll stay the night there.
Is Seyeong well?
She's doing very well.
I told you.
When she needs time to think,
it's better to go away for a while.
If she stays there long enough.
Ms. Kim will give her up.
Do you think so?
Of course.
Don't ask Seyeong to come back.
Give her time.
If you miss her, you can go see her.
Grandma, I'm here.
Hello.
What are you doing here?
Did you have a fight with Seongsu again?
I told you we don't fight anymore.
Ms. Kim is in the hospital.
What?
Now that I'm better,
she falls ill?
What happened?
She had heart surgery.
I guess that runs in the family.
Seyeong has a bad heart, too.
Is she alive?
The surgery went well
but she's still unconscious.
Does Seyeong know?
I haven't called her yet.
You should have told her.
I don't know though.
She left Seoul to organize her thoughts.
If she hears this news.
she might get very confused.
Yes.
The surgery went well.
Maybe Ms. Kim is just sleeping off
the stress. Seyeong doesn't need to know.
She'll only get confused.
She has to know that her mother's sick.
What if she decides
to go live with her mother then?
Will that be okay?
If it's serious, Ms. Kim's family would
have called. If you make the first move,
you'll be basically telling her to go away.
You shouldn't do anything.
Your love Jihyeon that much?
You'll find out once you have your own kids.
You'll realize you would die for them.
That's what mom used to say.
She said she didn't have to eat if she knew
we were full, and she missed us
even when we were with her.
That's how all mothers are.
I'm sure Ms. Kim felt the same way.
You chose not to live with her, so
I'm going to respect that.
But if you're angry with her about something,
you should let it go.
Ms. Kim. It's me.
Wake up.
What are you trying to do?
You can't die and leave my daughter.
You have to take responsibility for her.
You know how much she cares about you.
You have to live.
How did you know she was sick?
Ilyeong told us.
Did they call Seyeong?
I stopped them.
Did you call her?
No.
I stopped my family.
Good.
We can't let Seyeong come here.
I'll take care of that.
You have to go.
I can't let my family see you.
Yeonju...
Yeonju?
She's looking for Seyeong?
I said go.
I'll forgive you for hurting my daughter
this time around
but I won't forgive you a second time.
Mom, I'm the one that's here for you.
Can't you say my name once for me?
I think we came too early.
Grandmothers wake up early because
they don't sleep in that long.
That's strange.
We worked hard to wash the sheets.
Why is she letting them sit in the dew?
Ma'am?
Ma'am, are you up?
Ma'am, I'm coming inside!
Ma'am!
Jeonghyo, hurry up!
- What happened? - Help me lift her up!
- Ma'am - Hurry!
Grandma, we re going to the hospital.
Try to hold on!
Hurry!
What, Juhui's in the hospital?
Yes.
I thought you should know.
She's unconscious?
What if this turns serious?
It's a wonder how she held out this long.
If I were her, I'd have fainted dozens
of times. She acts all strong
but this was eating her up inside.
Which hospital?
What did you say?
Juhui's is in the hospital?
It's not serious. Don't worry.
Then why is she hospitalized?
Hurry up!
Get the car.
Father, you're not well.
You can't go anywhere.
Calm down.
Listen to him, father.
Juhui is a celebrity.
It's a secret that she's sick.
I'll go quietly to see her.
You should stay here.
Jaeseong, you go instead.
This must be hard on Yerin.
You should be there for her.
Okay.
You can't wait forever to do your duties,
because your parents won't wait forever.
The best way to be a good son is
to marry in good time.
You listen to what he says.
You're the oldest son in this family.
You have to be more responsible.
Is something bothering you?
No.
- I'm here. - We're back.
Did you have a good trip?
This is for you, grandpa.
It's squid.
Oh?
How is Seyeong?
She's doing very well.
She looks like she's doing better than before.
I'll show you pictures we took.
Okay.
- Let's go inside. - Yeah.
Iyeong.
Did something happen to Seyeong?
It's private
so don't ask.
Did your ex-husband call?
That's private, too.
Don't ask, unless I tell you first.
Was the hospital too far for you?
You have is take your
blood pressure medication.
My grandmother takes them, too.
This red box is for the mornings.
This blue box is for evenings.
You have a grandmother?
Yes.
Are you close to her?
Of course!
She was sad when I left for Gangneung.
But she scolded me often, too.
I learned how to do laundry thanks to her.
What did you do that was so wrong?
She should be happy you have a good job.
I was not a good granddaughter.
That woman has to know she's blessed.
My granddaughter left home years ago.
I was too busy working on TV that
I don't even remember her face.
I bet she's thinking of you.
I can't sing when I'm sad and down.
Now that I'm in better spirits,
perhaps I can sing a song.
You need to take it easy a few days.
You're here to hear me sing.
Bring one of those recorders.
I'll come back to see if you're taking
your pills, and you can sing for me then.
Yeonju...
Mom!
I'm fine.
I'm right here...
Mom.
Yeonju...
I'm right here waiting for you.
When are you going to call out my name?
Yerin, we need to switch.
You've been here since yesterday.
I'm fine.
I want to stay with her.
You're going to faint, too.
Get some rest.
No, I'm going to stay.
I said get up.
Drink this.
I'll take you home.
Yerin.
I didn't sleep at all since last night.
I stayed by mom's side.
But mom's been...
She keeps calling out, "Yeonju"
Asking for Seyeong...
I was there for hours
but she hasn't called for me once.
She'll ask for you once she's up.
Is this what blood ties are like?
Is this what a biological family is like?
I've lived with her 20 years.
I wanted so much
to receive her love. I never said no to her.
But she only wants Seyeong.
That's why this is that much worse.
I was nothing to her.
You know how much she loves you.
I love her, too
I love her more than anyone.
I want her all to myself.
But it was a one-sided love.
I also wanted your love so much.
But I was selfish.
Yerin.
Don't feel bad for me.
I don't want your pity.
Let me take you home.
I'm going to see Seyeong.
Mom wants to see her.
I have to bring her back.
What are you doing here?
Isn't it enough Seyeong left Seoul?
Why are you trying to destroy her again?
Don't jump to conclusions.
Where is she?
I don't know.
Where is she?
Mom's sick.
I have to take Seyeong back.
Where is she?
Who is it?
Open the door! Now!
What are you doing here?
Let's go. Now!
What are you doing?
We have to go to Seoul.
I need to know why!
Why are you doing this?
Mom's sick. She's sick!
