(Episode 39)
What? Is this result correct?
Are you sure?
Have a seat.
Do you have the result?
Yes.
They do not match.
Then are you saying that we can't do the surgery?
We found kidney stones...
on your CT scan.
What? What's that?
It means there are stone-like things in your kidney.
It's nothing serious.
Usually, it's not a huge problem.
But if you get this again...
when you only have one kidney after the transplant surgery,
it'll become problematic.
That's why I believe it's better to not do this.
Mr. Choi, you can go see a urologist...
to get the kidney stones removed, then you can get discharged.
And...
your brother can be discharged too.
I'm saved. I'm saved!
Hooray! Hooray!
Gosh, that was close.
Wait.
Then what will happen to Go Ya's brother?
Didn't she say...
he has to get a surgery to be healthy again?
How can I break the news to him?
What am I going to do with him?
(Jang Ok Ja's Cooking Class)
This is yours.
I bought some long underwear...
to get you through the winter.
Gosh, thanks.
This is so pretty.
They make these with a great design nowadays.
- Thank you. - Sure.
What about Ji Seok's?
He said he doesn't need any because he's still young.
Yes, I don't need one.
Then what's that?
Oh, this one?
It's for a student in my class.
I have a student who's ill.
It must be hard for him to get treatments.
So I bought this to help him stay warm this winter.
There's no teacher like you in this age.
You can't dismiss anyone who's suffering or in a hardship.
Eun Seok, you sympathize with people too easily.
That's because he's full of love.
Sympathy and pity are both forms of love.
No, they aren't.
Sympathy is sympathy, and love is love.
I'm saying that the big picture is the same.
If you pity someone...
just in that moment, that's sympathy.
If that continues to linger in your heart, that's love.
Ji Seok, why do you look so worn out today?
I'm fine.
I'll go upstairs and get ready for work.
What's with him today?
Stay here.
He looks so down.
I want to find out if something is bothering him.
Leave him alone if you want to make things easier for him.
I'm his mom. I should do something.
Just don't do anything...
if you want to help your family.
Is she saying...
I should die?
No way. That's absurd.
Are you already leaving?
- Let me just get my bag. - Okay.
Ji Seok, come here.
Is something bothering you?
The thing is,
I think I said something I shouldn't have.
You? To whom?
To that girl, Choi Go Ya.
I told you she had a sick brother, right?
Yes. What about it?
Her dad is in the hospital to give his kidney to her brother.
And I asked her if he was really trustworthy.
What?
No matter what happened, he's in the hospital to save his son.
And you asked her if he was trustworthy?
Don't you think it was a bit rude of you?
You're usually so careful. Why did you say such a thing?
I don't know. I was probably too concerned about her.
- You were concerned? - Think about it.
Her dad abandoned his family for a woman.
I thought she shouldn't trust him so easily.
In addition, the woman he cheated with...
even told Go Ya's mom to abort her baby.
Really? How could she say such a thing?
I know.
I'd love to see the face of...
that shameless woman.
Anyway, you said that because you were concerned?
Of course, I was concerned.
By the way, did you give her the gloves?
Yes. She seems to be using them.
It was a good idea to give them to her.
- How do you feel? - It's just a pair of gloves.
I'll wait downstairs.
I was asking about you.
I was asking if you have feelings for her.
I have a feeling you do.
Mr. Min.
Last time, I just thought you were concerned.
But hearing it for the second time doesn't make me feel good.
Your hunch might hurt someone.
He might look like a terrible dad to you,
but to me, he's a savior for trying to save my brother.
Why do I keep thinking about it?
- Good morning. - Good morning.
- One hot americano, please. - Sure.
Isn't Ms. Choi here yet?
She's not working today.
I'll pay for one more cup.
- It's for Ms. Choi when she comes. - Okay.
We sent the judgment by post.
It hasn't arrived yet?
Hold on.
Min Ji Seok Law Office.
Yes. You'd like to meet him here?
He'll be here soon.
(Mom)
(San Deul)
San Deul.
Can you come here?
Where are you going in the middle of breakfast?
San Deul!
Go Ya.
What happened?
Why did you sound so depressed?
Is the result out?
- He won't get a transplant. - What?
Go Woon doesn't know yet.
He has a dialysis session today.
I have to help Dad with the discharge procedures too.
So I'll have to stay here.
Please tell my mom about the result.
Okay, I will.
Please tell Aunt Tae Ran too.
Are you okay?
No one would be more disappointed than you are.
You looked for your dad for such a long time.
It must have been harder for Go Woon.
Okay. Don't worry about your family.
Stay strong.
Okay.
San Deul.
Please stay with my mom.
Is the treatment finished?
Yes. They need to check the progress in a few days.
I'll have to come back here then.
That's good.
I packed your stuff while you were being treated.
I took care of the discharge procedures...
and paid for the bills.
You didn't have to. I couldn't even give him my kidney.
Should I talk about the investment now?
What are you doing?
Thank you for everything, Dad.
- I didn't do anything. - Regardless of the result,
you wanted to save my brother.
I'll never forget your kindness.
I'll pay you back by all means.
I'm your dad.
I didn't do it because I wanted something from you.
I won't give up.
I'll have my kidney treated and get another test.
I'll save my own son.
- Dad. - Right.
Here.
Please treat my son to something nice.
I'd love to do it myself,
but your mom might not like it.
Take it.
Let me carry it.
Go in.
Why is she standing there? I'm starting to feel bad.
She's almost fallen for it.
Let me see.
Honey, I can go home now.
Really?
You're not a match?
Are you already leaving?
Please watch my store.
Of course.
Don't worry and go.
Where were you? You didn't even finish your breakfast.
Are you going somewhere?
I'm going to Go Woon.
See you.
You don't have to go there.
Why?
Go Ya will bring Go Woon home soon.
Is the test finally over?
The thing is,
they have to stop now.
Why?
- Aunt Yang Sook. - Is the result out?
Yes.
He won't get a transplant?
He won't?
No.
Oh, my.
Yang Sook!
Yang Sook.
Yang Sook, pull yourself together.
What's happening?
Will you be all right?
- My goodness. - Mom.
- Take this. - Okay.
What are you doing?
Oh, gosh, what am I doing? I got thirsty too.
Yang Sook, have some water.
Leave me alone.
This isn't good.
Let's get you to a hospital and put you on an IV.
You might end up getting sick too.
What's with you?
This isn't the first time he wasn't a match.
Why are you so out of it when this wasn't the first time?
Things are hard for her as is. Stop it.
I'm frustrated with her. That's why.
Oh, goodness. How can you do this to them?
Oh, no.
My goodness.
Congratulations on getting discharged without a scratch.
- Thanks. - Cheers.
Then...
everything about this kidney transplant deal is over.
Of course, it is.
This is one happy ending.
You've gone through so much until this day.
Of course, I did.
I don't want to go near a hospital ever again.
Anyway, why weren't you two a match?
Was there a particular reason?
Oh, apparently I got some kidney stones,
meaning there is something in my kidney.
Is this serious?
No, there's nothing to worry about.
I've already been treated.
I already saw the stones coming out.
I have to visit the hospital one more time, and that's it.
See? I've been telling you...
that I wasn't the same...
whenever I went to take a leak.
I'm so glad it's nothing serious.
It's all thanks to you.
I couldn't have gone through this if it wasn't for you.
You always held onto me whenever I got shaken.
That's how I got this far.
- I'm glad you think so. - And thanks to you,
I found kidney stones before they got serious.
This is like catching 2 birds with 1 stone,
having a cake and eating it too,
a win-win situation.
We just need to receive an investment now.
That's right.
I wanted to bring it up right away...
as I got discharged,
but she looked so disappointed. It wasn't the right timing yet.
I just made sure I look like a good dad.
I guess so. They're probably devastated...
because fate was on our side.
Let's bring up the investment...
after they calm down a bit.
Okay. We waited this long already.
Let's not ruin things by rushing.
They won't turn us down, would they?
That won't happen.
Go Ya just told me that she'll repay my kindness.
What do you think she means by that?
So you can just sit around...
and get ready...
to count the zeroes on our bank account.
Then cheers to our investment.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Hey, San Deul.
Really?
Is the result out already? What happened?
What?
- "Trash"? - Don't touch that!
Who are you?
I've definitely heard her voice before.
Hey! Stop right there!
Darn it.
Wait.
Come to think about it, she sounded like her.
I guess all trashy girls sound similar.
Go Woon, it must've been a toll to go through the tests.
- Wasn't it hard? - A little.
But it's great to be home.
Once I get a surgery,
I don't have to go back to the hospital,
or get a dialysis,
then I'll go play catch and soccer...
with my friends...
- You're home. - Yes.
Aunt Tae Ran.
It's okay.
Where's Mom?
In her room.
- Go Woon, you must be sleepy. - Let's go inside.
Tell me.
He found kidney stones in Dad's kidney.
And there's a chance that it might relapse.
So it might be dangerous to his life if he only has one kidney left...
after the surgery.
That's why we can't do this.
And?
He told us to wait for another opportunity.
I'm sick of them telling us to wait.
What are you doing?
Haven't you had anything to eat all day?
Why do you look so worn out?
Have some.
Why are you crying?
I shouldn't have done this, Mom.
If I had known, I wouldn't have looked for him.
I just made my family sad because of this vain hope.
No one died. Stop crying.
Fine. We'll wait.
We waited for 10 years. We can wait longer.
Go Woon will definitely get better.
So eat up.
The swallow guy?
What an adorable kid.
What's that?
I met this kid at the hospital,
and he gave this to me.
Isn't that Heung Bu and Nol Bu?
Yes. And he said I'm not Heung Bu or Nol Bu.
I'm the swallow because he's thankful for me.
Why is he thanking you?
I wonder.
Maybe it's because I had a chat with him.
Why did you put it on the wall though?
Just like this swallow...
got pumpkin seeds for Heung Bu,
I think this picture made me lucky and made sure that...
we're not a match on the second test.
No way.
I wonder...
if he's as big as this boy.
Who?
Oh, I mean my son.
I feel bad after hearing that he'll only be healthy...
when he gets a surgery.
Why are you concerned about him?
Why? Is it because he's your blood?
It's not because of that.
To be honest, Yang Sook came to visit me.
What?
I can't believe her.
How dare she come visit you?
I'm your wife.
She was your wife in the past.
But I'm your wife now.
She must've thought I was a joke.
And what? What did she say?
She said she's thankful...
that I'm helping his son.
Goodness. She has no idea that this was all but a show.
Exactly.
That's why I feel kind of bad.
You have to put those useless emotions aside.
We need to focus on pulling off this show...
and getting out of this dreadful place.
Remember.
At the end of this show, we'll get an investment.
I know that.
Show, show, show.
Please save...
your son.
My gosh.
Please let me go.
You're only making things harder for yourself.
Do you want to live with a man who doesn't love you anymore?
You can't change my mind.
I'll never divorce you.
My goodness.
I want to start a new life.
Why can't I live my life the way I want?
Are you on your own? Don't you have a family?
I've been working hard...
to feed and educate my children.
It doesn't end there.
It's not like I'm leaving you with nothing.
I'm giving this house to you.
Yang Sook, please let me go.
I want to be happy.
If I let this woman go,
I'll regret for the rest of my life.
What about our baby in my belly?
You're talking about the baby again.
- Honey. - I don't even know how he looks.
I can't give up my life because of him.
I'll be blunt.
Do you think he'll thank you for giving birth to him?
No way.
So?
Get rid of him.
- What? - You and I won't be able to...
take care of him anyway. Do as I say.
That's best for the baby.
If he was going to come out anyway, why couldn't he be born healthy?
Is it because he heard what I said in his mom's belly?
My goodness. Whatever.
I'm in bigger trouble.
I should focus on...
finding investments.
Go Ya said she wanted to pay me back.
What's taking her so long?
She could just hand me some money.
My goodness.
- Oh, it's chicken soup. - Here.
To celebrate your coming back, Aunt Tae Ran made it...
specially for you, with less salt.
I love Aunt Tae Ran's chicken soup.
The doctor said you could eat a little.
Go ahead.
Go ahead. Let's eat.
- Okay. - Okay.
Oh, it tastes great.
The hospital food didn't taste good.
Go Bong, you're so quiet today.
What's the matter?
I wasn't always noisy.
San Deul is quiet too.
What's with everyone?
Fine. I have no choice.
I'll dance to celebrate my coming home.
Shanghai, Shanghai
The twist dance
Something's wrong.
What's with you all today?
Go Ya, is there something wrong?
- Go Woon. - Yes?
The test result is out.
Really? What does it say?
You won't be able to get a transplant this time.
Again?
Yes. But don't worry.
You'll find a match someday.
I can't play soccer until then, right?
It's okay. I don't have to play soccer.
I like...
reading and drawing much better than soccer.
- Go Woon. - Mom.
So don't cry because of me, okay?
Are you really okay?
Yes. I'm perfectly fine.
Oh, I forgot to wash my hands before eating.
I'll be right back.
I really wanted to play soccer with my friends.
No. I shouldn't cry.
It'll make my family sad.
The swallow man said...
a man should always look tough.
I shouldn't cry.
Aren't you feeling well?
You look so down.
I didn't sleep well last night.
Have a cup of coffee.
Thank you.
You should thank your boyfriend instead.
He paid for it a few days ago.
My boyfriend?
When we had a rude customer the other day,
he came in and called you honey.
Isn't he your boyfriend?
He left this for you.
I'm sorry about yesterday.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
Please forget about what I said.
I hope the second test turns out well...
so that your brother can get a transplant.
(I'm sorry about yesterday. I didn't mean to hurt you.)
(Ji Seok)
Let's call it a day.
Don't miss the next appointment.
Okay.
By the way, how is Ms. Choi's brother's test result?
He won't get a transplant.
What?
They weren't a match.
She must be very sad right now.
- I'm going on a delivery. - Okay. Be careful.
(Forever Enemies)
She looked so depressed.
Is she okay? She must be in shock.
I'd like to treat Dad to dinner.
Invite him here.
I think it's going well.
The guy who quit teaching because...
You seem very close with your aunt.
She's like a mom to me.
Who is she?
The owner is visiting from the US?
The owner lives in the US.
