Okay, I'll come back stronger than ever!
Noona!
Huh?
Make sure you succeed and come back! Got it?
ONE MONTH LATER
Wedding Invitation Groom: Sun Ho Lee - Bride: Joo Ri Jung
I can't believe your wedding is in 2 days!
Since we'll marry eventually, why wait?
I guess it's better to get it over with quickly before Professor Lee comes to his senses.
What?!
I'm joking! It's because I'm envious!
Awhew! Professor Lee's carefree days are over! Welcome to the world of married men! Welcome to hell.
Welcome to what?
Oh! I said welcome to the world of married men!
It's like living in heaven! Ooh!... Paradise!
It's our invitation.
Oh, you're having it at a Catholic church!
It's unexpected; I thought it would be at a hotel or somewhere like that.
Since the wedding is private, we're just inviting close friends and having a quiet ceremony.
Hello?
It reminds me of our wedding...
It's pretty...
Ah, yes! How are you?
What? Right now?
As I requested, you didn't say anything to Ms. Jung right?
Ah yes. But what did you want to see me about?
The hospital is currently under expansion
and the President is proposing that you to take the Director's position there.
D-director? Me?
It sounds like a great opportunity but it's not something I can decide on my own.
Let me think about it more and get back to you. Yes.
Get back to whom about what? What's going on?
Um... a while ago at a Liver Academic Society,
I received an offer to go on an exchange program for Doctors.
Exchange program for Doctors? To where?
Singapore.
Singapore? Hey, I heard it's such a great place to live. For how long?
I'm not sure but once you go there, I would think it would be for 2 years.
Isn't that a good length of time?
Other people go there just for their kids; it would be a good opportunity for Yu Na and Joon.
I considered that as well but there are several factors that worry me.
The clinic as well as the house...
If you worry about everything, when will you succeed?
Since it's a great experience, wouldn't it be good for your resume?
That's true. I don't know whether I'll get a chance like this again.
Yes, so don't think about it and just go! I'll stand behind you!
How will you support me?
I'll cook! Do the laundry! Dishes! Clean! I'll do it all! Isn't that supporting you all the way!
There is one condition.
The President doesn't want you to pursue the marriage any further.
I'm not sure what he means by that.
Doesn't this mean he never liked me?
Isn't this the size of a general hospital?
Professor Lee, I've been looking all over for you!
Where did you go without telling me?
Ah, I had a headache so I went out to get some fresh air.
Oh dear... where and how are you hurting?
You don't have much of a fever...
I'm okay now.
Do you have a lot on your mind because of the wedding?
Don't worry.
I'll take care of everything so you just need to trust me and follow along. Okay?
You don't think you'll regret it? You may never get a chance like this again.
Please deliver this message to the President. I'll forget this ever happened. Good bye.
Good job, Sun Ho Lee. You did the right thing.
- What? Go where? - Singapore?
Actually, it happened a while ago and I was going back and forth about it.
But Oppa agrees and the kids are happy so I don't want to miss a great opportunity like this.
But even still... what about the clinic?
It's all going to work out. One of Ji Won's doctor friend will be able to take over for her.
Ji Won said there are many others who do the same thing.
So you've already made up your mind about going and just announcing your decision.
Mom! Nothing has been decided yet.
So how long will you be there?
Why do you want to know?
If you want to go just go by yourselves!
We're too old to go and face hardship in a foreign land.
It's total hardship when you leave home.
Yes, so don't waste your time thinking of such a thing.
So just the four of us will go.
See I told you so. It will be much better for them to stay here.
I don't think they want us to go. What should we do?
So you don't want to go? What about Yu Na and Joon?
Didn't you see how excited they were about going to Singapore?
With Yeo Jin gone to Paris, I don't feel good about leaving mom and dad by themselves.
Ba Ni will be here. It's not like we'll be gone forever, it's 2 years at the most.
Don't waiver on account of your mom this time and just forge ahead, okay?
I'm sure Kim Seo Bang (Son-in-law) talked her into it!
Ji Won said she was interested in going as well.
There's no way she would have decided on her own without discussing it with me first!
Are you upset she's leaving you behind?
But I'll be here with you!
Just go to sleep!
This is my most cherished Junior friend and she's here to attend the wedding from California.
Oh I see, it's nice meeting you.
He's cute looking.
Hey! I'm sorry Professor Lee.
She's lived in the States for a long time and has limited vocabulary.
Ah! It's okay, you can be informal with me.
Continue your conversation. Hello?
Uh, how did you meet?
We went to school in California together;
Joo Ri was the boss of our club.
Boss?
Leader of a gang!
L-leader of a gang?
The way she swung her wooden sword made her look like a butterfly;
hence her nickname, Butterfly.
Ahi... you're just kidding me right?
If you don't believe me, see for yourself. A butterfly tattoo behind her left ear.
A butterfly tattoo?
I'm so sorry, but it was a congratulatory call from California.
Ah, yes.
Um, Joo Ri, I have something to tell you so lend me your ear.
What?
I'm sorry but it's something I need to just tell Joo Ri.
No problem.
Uhm...
What is it? Tell me!
No, it's your hairstyle today, it looks great!
Thank you.
Are we the only ones eating?
Your dad and Ba Ni had engagements so they ate already.
Go ahead and eat.
Why does it taste this way?
What's the matter?
Mom, it's all salt!
Really?
I guess I'm done for; I can't even season food properly anymore.
Why do you talk like that? Everyone makes mistakes.
No, I should die now that I'm old.
Do you want me to make some ramen?
That's okay. It's too much work for you so we'll just order Ja Jang Myun* (*Black bean noodles).
Why, isn't it because you don't want to bother with someone who can't even season food properly?
What? That's not what I was thinking.
Fine, this useless Mother-in-law will get out of your way
so that the four of you going to Singapore can order either Ja Jang Myun or Champong.
Whatever you want!
Mom!
You kids want to go to Singapore right?
Yeah!
Yes, I want to go!
Think of the kids and stand firm, okay?
What do you mean by that?
Don't you know why Jang Mo Nim is acting that way?
Damn it! This is why there's no merit in raising a daughter!
[Ottogi Dormitory - Institute of Academy] Uncle, tomorrow?
Try to be there for tomorrow. It's not just anyone's but your tutor's wedding.
I don't want to; I don't have time for something like that.
Also, he's no longer my tutor! [Head band: Ensured Success]
Hey, not studying for a day isn't going to kill you.
Are you going to take the responsibility if I don't make it to college?
No you wouldn't!
So don't call me about something like this again!
- Did you sleep well? - Did you sleep well?!
Yes. Ji Won, your mom is in bed sick.
She must be really sick to not be able to get out of bed.
Really? Where is she sick?
Don't you know why she's like this?
She's pretending to be sick!
Mom, when is food ready?
That darn food! Food! Am I just food to you all?
Why are you so cranky so early in the morning? I didn't do anything!
If you also have somewhere to go just go!
I hate the sight of you all!
Such bad daughters! How could you act this way after all I've done for you! Ouch!
Ahjummoni, you're really going to collapse that way!
What did they say?
Is she okay?
They said it's Acute Kidney Inflammation.
Isn't that serious?
Fortunately it was discovered early so she'll get better after some treatments.
Don't worry too much.
Really? She's really okay right?
Mom!
Head Nurse Jung, congratulations!
Are you here by yourself? What about Professor Lee?
Sun Ho Hyung isn't here yet?
That's strange, he left early in the morning.
He's not answering his phone so there must be something wrong for sure!
I'll go look for him.
Hyung!
Professor Lee, what happened?
I don't care what kind of person you were, the Joo Ri I know is a kind hearted woman.
Professor Lee!
But promise me one thing.
What is it?
Whatever happens... you'll never hit me!
What?
Whatever happens...
you'll never let go of my hand.
Oppa!
My ahjummoni, when did she become so fragile?
Ahjummoni, why are you lying here?
You have to get well quickly so that you can yell and scold me!
You're just playing a joke on us, right?
Ahjummoni! I was wrong!
Ahjummoni, I was wrong, please get up!
Why are you overreacting? Do I have a terminal illness?
Ahjummoni!
What the matter with you? I can't breathe!
Ahjummoni! I thought I would never be able to see you again!
Aigoo, aigoo... oh my, what's with you?
Stop overreacting! That's enough, I can't breathe!
Here, let's rehearse before the ceremony.
Bride and the groom enter.
Joo Ri!
It's been a while!
Why are you here?! Get out of here at once!
Joo Ri, do you know this man?
Professor Lee... I-it's...
I'm her ex-husband!
Yes, since I'm here it should be okay. I'll explain the situation.
Take good care of mom.
Why is everyone outside? I was told to come early for the rehearsal.
It looks like you wasted your time coming come.
Why? Did something happen?
We just applied for a marriage certificate.
It ended on our honeymoon so we can't even say we were a couple.
So if you hadn't been found out, you weren't ever planning on telling me?
I'm sorry.
I never took you to be such a frightful person!
Are you the same person that I knew?
Yes! This is me.
Now that you know the real me do you still want to marry me?
Joo Ri?!
I guess this is the end of the road for us.
We'll say this wedding never happened. I'll let everyone know.
Are you joking right now? Is marriage a child's play?
You should have ended it when you were offered the position at hospital!
Then you wouldn't have witnessed this shameful event.
You knew about it?
Of course. It was all orchestrated by me.
Did you think this was real?
It was all a plan of yours? Why would you do such a thing?
Professor Lee, do you love me?
I said do you love me?
I'm sorry.
Then, do you at least like me?
Joo Ri, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry!
I thought my love for you would be enough
but I guess deep inside I wanted your love as well.
You should have just told me the truth.
Why? So that you could marry me out of pity?
That's okay! Marriage isn't a charity!
Joo Ri!
People are probably tired of waiting so let's go.
Don't worry about the post wedding affairs; I'll take care of everything. Then...
I really can't understand Head Nurse Jung.
All she had to say was let's end it but why did she have to put on such a show?
Don't you get it?
She was trying to give him a way out.
That was her way of showing her love for him for the last time.
Wow! Ahjummoni, that was such a profound statement!
So, don't worry about me and leave.
I have no desire at all to hold you guys back by using my illness as an excuse.
Why do you bring up something that's passed, we're not going to Singapore.
I said just go! I'm tired of you sticking to me like glue.
If you're tired of me, get well quickly.
That's the only way you can get rid of me.
Ahjummoni, ahhh...
That's okay, just give it to me.
No, ahhh...
Se Hwa Kim?
Kyu Han Lee? Have a seat.
I had to stop by a bookstore, I'm sorry I'm late.
I was also reading and wasn't aware of the time passing.
Oh my, I was reading that book too.
That's an amazing coincidence.
Yes, it is.
