(Episode 51)
Wait.
What do you mean?
What do you mean that Lara is sick?
Well, it's... Director Ha...
She's terminally ill with brain tumor. She doesn't have much left.
Since when did you all know?
Before the production began.
Then...
was I the only one who didn't know?
The only people who know are Writer Yoon, Chairman Jung,
and me, just the three of us.
Why didn't you tell me?
Why did you hide this from me?
Lara...
wanted to shoot a drama with you.
She was afraid...
you'd make her receive treatment if you found out.
Then you all knew...
but neglected her condition and let her do this.
The possibility of her living...
after surgery is less than 10 percent.
She wants to spend whatever time she has left...
with you.
No matter how low the possibility is,
you should have made her receive treatment.
We wanted to.
But this was her choice.
She wanted to spend...
the rest of her life with you.
You once asked me how I got out of that marriage.
Lara went to see my aunt,
told her that she's dying soon, and talked her out of it.
I'm so sorry.
I made a huge mistake.
This might all be for the better.
I felt really bad about...
keeping this as a secret from her.
Do you have bad eyes?
Are you okay?
It's really gross. Just leave. Go.
Do Na.
You're so selfish.
The person that's leaving...
only has to close her eyes.
But what about those that are left behind?
What about those who have to let you go without trying anything?
Do Na, what are you talking about?
Why didn't you try to find a way to live?
Is life something you can throw away that easily?
If there was at least 0.00001 percent of possibility,
you should have gotten surgery.
Why did you give up that easily?
Do Na, what are you talking about?
She's terminally ill with a brain tumor.
She doesn't have much longer.
Mom.
I'm sorry.
You're right. I'm selfish.
But...
I had no choice.
They said...
I might die on the bed as I get that surgery.
I couldn't depend on such a low possibility.
Instead, I wanted to...
shoot that drama to spend more time with you...
before I leave.
So...
are you saying...
you chose to die because of me?
Mom, what's going on right now?
Are you dying?
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry to both of you.
How can this be true?
Mom, how can you do this to me?
Why did you hide this from us?
Then I... I had no idea that you were dying.
I did nothing but ignorantly go out on dates.
Sung Ah. I wanted you to do that.
I didn't want both of you...
to be captured by sadness,
spending whatever time I have left with me.
Why did you find me?
If you were going to die like this, why did you find me?
- Do Na... - If you found me,
then you should have tried to live with everything you have.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Do Na.
I thought we had a lot of time left.
I thought I had much time to forgive you.
What is this?
Dad.
Yes, what is it? Have a seat.
I got a call from Sung Ah.
I heard Mom is...
terminally ill with a brain tumor.
And she said you knew.
Yes.
Why didn't you make her get surgery?
She didn't want to get one.
She still should have tried.
The possibility of...
her survival was too low.
Your mom wants to live doing what she does...
until the moment she dies.
Then you should have at least told us.
I'm sorry.
She didn't want that.
Do Na. Have some cake.
I got it from the best cake place in Korea.
Do Na.
Hey, Do Na.
What's wrong? Are you okay?
- Are you coming just now? - Yes.
What's wrong?
Did Lara's condition worsen?
No.
Do Na found out.
I'm a bit burdened because of that.
Of course, she should know.
Her kids need to know to get ready. Especially Do Na. She must know.
It would bother Do Na for the rest of her life if Lara just died.
Don't worry too much.
It's a good thing Do Na found out.
At least she can let Lara go as her mother now.
I know I have wronged you, but please listen.
This is why I couldn't tell you.
Mother.
I was so happy...
ever since I moved in.
The family would eat together...
in harmony at one table.
However,
this heavy air makes it more difficult for me.
I wish...
you would treat me the same.
All right. Let's eat.
Pick up your spoons.
From now,
there is only one thing we can do.
We must...
let her go in peace.
Mom, it's your favorite fish.
- Yes. - That's right.
Today,
I prepared her favorite foods.
Let's all enjoy it.
Thank you.
Hey, you should...
talk casually to Do Na now.
(Chairman Jung Young Woong)
Sir, Ha Do Na is here.
- Let her in. - Okay.
Welcome.
Were you surprised?
Do Na.
What are you doing?
Please save her.
Save her somehow.
I know you have a lot of money.
If we can't help her in Korea,
then please help her...
get help abroad.
Here, get up.
That's what I want too.
I would use all of my money...
No, I would even go into debt if I could save her.
I'd love to do that.
However,
it's too late.
Why weren't you able to stop her?
- When she didn't want surgery... - That's what she wanted.
She wanted to be with you.
I couldn't stop her.
She was so desperate.
Is there...
really no other way?
If there was,
I would have tried it already.
I have a favor...
to ask of you.
Could you accept her...
as your mother now?
Call her Mom,
and spend some quality time together.
I don't think I can...
because I'm mad at her.
She did this because of me.
That burdens me.
If she has a dying wish,
it would only be one thing.
To close her eyes...
as your mother.
What do I do?
I thought I had a lot of time.
I thought I had enough time...
to forgive her.
But I was wrong.
I wanted to call her Mom.
However,
I couldn't say it this morning.
What if she gives up sooner...
because I called her Mom?
What if the moment I call her Mom,
that will be the end of it?
I'm so scared.
I thought you should know the exact situation.
Lara...
is starting to get numb around her hands and feet.
Her sight is failing too.
I've been reading the lines for her so she could memorize them,
but her memory isn't as good either.
You should help her with her lines...
No.
You should keep on helping her.
I won't change.
- Do Na. - That's...
what Lara will want.
From now on, we won't meet as a group.
What's wrong, Madam Jung?
Just let us know if we have upset you.
If you break up the group, what about the rest of us?
Was the commission not enough?
I'm dying.
What?
I lost interest...
in making money.
- Cut. - Cut.
- Lara. - Yes?
Try to be plaintive...
without changing your character too much.
Okay, I understand.
Good work. We're back.
Good job.
- You finished late. - Yes.
It was a fierce battle today.
If Director Ha gives an okay, Lara would want to do it again.
If Lara was satisfied, Director Ha would ask to reshoot.
It was so fierce.
Is it because they're family?
I realized...
that they have the same personality.
It was like a whale jumping out of the water.
I heard you had many conflicts with Do Na.
She's my daughter, all right.
She wouldn't let me have it easy.
I felt like a professional working with a professional. It was great.
You two are perverted.
It's been a while since I heard you laugh out loud.
Maybe it's the first since we got divorced.
I was worried she would go easy on me since I'm ill.
However, she's even tougher on me.
This is what it feels to be alive.
She came to see me this morning and went down on her knees.
Do Na?
- Do Na did? - Yes.
She begged me to save you.
She said I have a lot of money.
If not in Korea,
she wanted me to send you abroad to get treated.
- That's what Do Na said? - I told her...
that her job is...
to treat you like a mom.
She said she couldn't do it.
You gave up receiving surgery to work with her.
She feels guilty.
I'm doing no good to her...
until the end.
Can we get married quickly?
Why all of a sudden?
You wanted to get married after your debut.
- I want to get married quickly. - Why?
Do you want to live with me already?
What's wrong?
What is it?
Sung Ah.
My mom is dying.
She doesn't have much time.
Sung Ah.
I need to show her...
getting married.
Mom.
I'm sorry.
To me,
I thought you were the only mom.
I'm sorry, Mom.
I have...
two moms now.
There's a nursing home...
that's run privately. It's in Gangwon Province.
Let's go there once the drama is over.
There are numerous patients...
who had no chance of survival but came out healthy.
Why are you doing this?
What if I live?
I'll stop you from getting together with Dong Woo,
so live first.
- Hwa Im. - You're going.
- I hurt you many times, right? - Yes.
You were always treated like a princess...
while I was treated like a maid.
It was so unfair. I hated it so much.
I didn't know.
After I came back,
I was happy I could work with you again.
I was flustered...
when you picked on me.
Hey, compared to what you did to me in the past,
that was nothing.
Let's meet often.
Let's talk about the old days...
and talk things out.
You're going to Gangwon Province.
Okay.
If I'm still alive after the drama,
- I'll go. - Promise?
I promise.
Tell me.
Give me a second.
Do Na.
Sung Ah told me to be here.
Have a seat.
I wanted to see you two...
because I wanted us to act more sisterly to each other.
Mom would like that the most.
Do Na.
You can speak casually to me.
Why aren't you answering her?
Okay.
And I need both of your help.
I'm going to quickly get married.
- When? - Soon.
Why are you rushing it?
I want to show Mom before she goes away.
So please help me.
I know you are both busy,
but please make a wedding invitation for me, Do Na.
Hye Mi, I need to get wedding gifts, so please lend me some money.
Okay.
Are you going to say no?
I'll do it.
We have to sell the house and move.
Look for a decent place.
We're going to get our house taken away?
What did you and Joon Ho do with the business?
How could you not protect our house?
You had a comfortable life thanks to me.
If you protected the assets I brought from my parents,
you could have kept this house.
Please stop. It's all my fault.
At least you know.
If you weren't going to break up with Jin Hee,
you shouldn't have gotten married.
You got married...
and turned our household upside down.
Father, please send me abroad.
I'm too humiliated to stay in Korea.
You're so immature.
If I had money to send you abroad,
I wouldn't try to move.
My goodness.
How did this happen to us?
Sir, they're the best in our store.
I brought good friends of mine. Make sure they have a good time.
Even if I'm not here in the future, please take good care of them.
Why? Are you going somewhere?
Yes, I'm going to travel.
I worked hard all my life to make money.
I'm starting to get bored.
Traveling is great.
He'll remember you later,
so take good care of him.
Cut. Okay.
- Cut. Okay. - Next scene.
Let's move to the next location.
Thank you.
Lara.
I heard.
I hope you get well soon.
Yes. Thank you.
Please let me know if there's anything we can do.
Yes, anything.
Since you say that, let me ask a favor of you.
Please don't treat me like a sick person.
I met Hwa Im during the day.
What did she do?
She wants me to go to a nursing home in Gangwon Province after the drama.
She says there are people who come out of there alive...
even if they had no chance of survival.
I see.
I got worried for a second.
We talked about the old times and had fun.
Friends are friends, after all.
The rehearsal is ready to begin.
- Yes. - Let's go.
Are you all right?
I see multiple objects.
Can you see me?
Yes.
I see several of you, but I can still see you.
Please remember my face.
Don't just remember Do Na's face.
Mine too.
I'll remember all the people I love.
In my head, they don't overlap.
I can see each of them clearly.
You're one of them.
We'll get married as soon as possible.
Sung Ah.
You don't have to hurry if it's because of me.
No, I'm glad.
I was hoping you two would get married soon.
Why are you acting like this too?
A marriage is very important in life.
Mom.
I really want you to see me in a wedding dress.
Then just take your wedding pictures now,
and get married later.
You have to get a house, and...
Don't worry about that.
We'll live at his current house.
Do Na said she will help me plan the wedding...
and Hye Mi will help me prepare the wedding articles.
They really want to get married. Let's give them our blessing.
If you're hurrying this because of me,
I really hate it.
It's all right.
Do you have no time for me because of work?
Lara's shooting is tomorrow afternoon,
so I was checking our plan.
- Have some coffee. - Okay.
- It must be tough. - Not really.
Do Na, you're really something.
You haven't cried since that day, and you kept on working hard.
Sung Ah is getting married.
She wants to speed things up with everything that's going on.
Should we join them and get married too?
We can't.
Your lawsuit is still on.
You can't get married. No way.
I'm sure you must feel like Sung Ah too.
Let's have some coffee, then.
Mom.
I can't come here anymore.
I really regretted that I didn't give you a gravesite.
That's why I worked so hard to make money.
But I was too busy working, so...
So...
- Cut. - Cut.
Let's take 20 minutes off.
We're taking a break.
Mom. I'll be there soon.
That's right. You can do this exactly like that.
Thank you...
for offering to help Sung Ah get married.
I'm her sister.
May I ask you for a favor?
- Yes. - Even after I leave,
please take care of your sisters.
Yes, I'll do that.
Hye...
Sung. Song, Hye? Sung...
Hye Mi and Sung Ah?
Don't you remember their names?
I wanted to say that...
I'm glad Hye Mi and Sung Ah got a great older sister.
Do you remember my name?
Do Na.
Ha Do Na.
Yes.
You're right.
Mom.
You can...
just call me Do Na, Mom.
Do Na...
Do...
Do Na...
Mom...
Forgive me, Do Na.
Why...
Why didn't you raise me?
That's what I despised the most.
I'm sorry, Do Na.
I didn't feel confident enough to raise you by myself.
I was probably afraid my career would be over...
if I made him get a divorce...
then marry him right after.
Forget that I ever asked you to forgive me.
Don't forgive me.
I couldn't raise you...
because of my selfishness.
No.
I...
I forgive you.
I was going to forgive you one day.
But...
even if I did forgive you,
you can't...
You just can't...
give up on life.
Mom...
What's wrong? Are you in a lot of pain?
Can you...
give me a hug?
Okay. Come here.
Do Na...
Do Na called me "Mom".
I see.
Do Na decided...
to forgive...
this inadequate and wicked mom.
You're not inadequate or wicked.
No.
I am.
But still, Do Na...
Yes.
I am sorry I left the sick with you.
I am very ashamed.
But she wanted to stay by Do Na's side.
Why did such an awful disease...
affect such a kind person like Lara?
I agree with you.
I feel bad because I thought she might be sick because of me...
because I put her through so much pain as we got divorced.
That incident was caused...
because of me.
No, if you did not take Do Na away,
she wouldn't have married me.
Anyway,
please take care of her.
Yes, I will.
You need to go and get a checkup.
I want to go with you.
I'm perfectly healthy.
But still, it would be great to get that confirmed...
after we get a checkup together.
Fine. I'll go with you. Happy now?
Yes.
If you get diagnosed with something...
Gosh, I think I'm jinxing this.
But if by any chance, you ever get sick,
I will take care of you.
Me too.
Oh, gosh.
There's something going on between you two?
I'm sorry...
for not telling you, Director Shin.
I'm sorry.
You don't have to be sorry.
Why are you crying?
What's Joon Seok to you?
Let go.
I know. I'm trash.
I would do anything to get a sponsor.
My hobby was to...
play with hostesses when I was bored.
But I...
Fine.
I don't deserve to love you.
No, Do Hyun.
- Cut. - Cut.
- What was that, Mi So? - Gosh.
I'm sorry.
Do Hyun was so handsome,
so I thought this was real life.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Director Ha, I'm not fully composed yet.
Can we take a break?
Sure. Let's take a 10-minute break.
- Let's take a 10-minute break. - Okay.
Thank you.
You're doing all sorts of things now.
Wait.
What?
I'll be good to you.
I'll listen to everything you say.
I won't do anything you tell me not to do.
I won't do anything you don't like either.
Is it still a no?
Focus on your acting.
Did you just let me finish my sentence?
Of course. I have ears. I have to listen.
Do Hyun.
Hey, stop doing that here.
Thank you...
for telling Do Na about Lara's illness.
Do Na...
called her "Mom" today...
and forgave her.
Lara was really happy.
I thought Do Na was going to be stubborn. I'm relieved.
They're related by blood. She couldn't resist.
I hope she can sleep tonight...
without having any pain.
I hope so too.
How did you two meet?
I just want to hear about Lara...
when I didn't know her.
She was pretty, but she was a horrible at acting.
I heard they were filming at my hotel.
I'm home.
I see you had a drink.
Yes.
What did you drink?
If you mix drinks, you'll get a headache tomorrow.
It's okay.
Give me that.
Are you going to get a pretty wife and ask her to pour you a drink?
Who did you have a drink with?
Lara's ex-husband?
Yes.
Again?
We're...
like friends now.
You must be.
You love the same woman.
You are both getting ready to send her away.
Aunt.
Are you approving of my love now?
If I don't,
what am I supposed to do?
Aunt.
What?
Aunt.
Why are you calling me?
I am...
aching here.
Okay.
Love her all you want.
That way, you won't regret it later.
- Aunt. - Cry.
Cry until you can't anymore.
("After This Night")
That wasn't nice.
I know this is no time to complain, but I'm going to do it anyway.
I had a kiss scene with Mi So, and you're not even jealous.
This was about that? It's acting.
Then I'm going to have scenes in the bed too.
You have to do it if it's in the script.
I'm going to only act in R-rated movies.
Go ahead.
It's difficult trying to make you laugh.
It's much more bearable with you next to me.
I know I can't comfort you...
from the pain you're suffering.
I called her "Mom".
It came out naturally.
I thought I won't be able to call her that...
until she goes away.
I thought about her when she was 20.
How was I when I was 20?
I compared us two.
She had a baby on her own.
She must have been scared and felt lonely.
When she had to leave the baby,
she must have cried a lot by herself.
She's giving up on life,
because she went through so much pain...
when she was so young.
Maybe that's why she got ill.
But I am...
going to fight with her until the end.
If she makes mistakes on set,
I'll criticize her...
and more.
I feel like...
if I don't say my farewell to her,
she won't leave.
Okay.
Fight with her.
I'll cheer you on.
I can't come anymore.
Make sure Lara's emotions are emphasized here.
I think this is enough.
- It wasn't gone. - No.
Let's go for another cut.
Okay.
I worked hard...
- Do Na. - Yes?
Is this your way?
I was busy making money.
What is?
Your way of loving your mom?
I haven't said it before,
but I think you and your mom are quite similar.
Your physical appearance and personality too.
Is that true?
Yes.
I see.
I take after...
my mom.
Let's try something else.
Yes, let's try something else.
Why? I like this rocker style.
Mom will like an elegant dress.
- Do Na. - Do Na.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Did I do something wrong? I can't I call my mom "Mom"?
Do Na.
Be careful.
I asked the chef for this special steak.
Please enjoy.
- I will. - Me too.
Are you able to eat?
You destroyed my family,
and you can still eat?
What are you doing here?
You can't do that.
You could have had a divorce quietly,
but instead you upload a video like that?
- Please stop. - Who are you?
I'm Hye Mi's older sister.
I see.
You're the illegitimate daughter from Lara.
Madam, watch your mouth.
What kind of abuse is this?
Yes, you're right.
I'm the illegitimate daughter.
So what?
Do you have any right to mock my mom?
My mom didn't live like you at the very least.
Who are you to mock her?
Like mother, like daughter.
Her three daughters are all the same.
Yes, we take after our mom, so we are all the same.
Is that something you can pick on us about?
Instead of splitting and disposing my company,
I would like it if you took it over.
I'm ashamed, but I had to ask.
Except for the problem in the distribution sector,
my business was steady, and I'm sure you know.
I have no capacity to do that.
Why are you doing this, Chairman Jung?
I know you're getting a big investment...
from Japan.
I'm going to leave the business to my daughter.
I don't want her to run your company.
I'm here begging you...
to save my employees.
Are you out of your mind?
How dare you go there and pick a fight?
Why can't I go there?
We got bankrupt because of Hye Mi.
I wanted to pour my anger out on her.
Mother, JU Group has to take over our company...
to have the slightest hope.
You're all insane.
Can't it be any other company?
Why are you selling our company to them?
Mom, if you don't know anything, then stay quiet.
Goodness.
Do Na was awesome.
She was insulted because of me.
But she was so bold.
That woman got scared and ran away.
Do Na is busy,
but she still went to see your wedding dress.
That was nice of her.
Mom, do you want to see this?
You are all so pretty.
Because we are your daughters.
(Producer Ha Do Na)
(Let's get married tomorrow.)
Let's get married tomorrow.
No, I'm busy tomorrow.
What do you think?
I oppose, Father.
I think it'll be a problem...
in maintaining a strong business.
I agree.
I shouldn't even consider it because of what they did to you.
Chairman Kim came to me...
and begged.
Father.
Yes. What is it?
I'll step down from being the successor.
I'll focus on my position right now.
What do you mean?
What about the company?
You should hire a professional director...
and distribute the shares amongst the employees.
What made you think that way?
I realized once I got married.
I'm not capable...
of running this company.
It's the only lesson I got out of the marriage.
Aren't you going to regret it?
All this time, my ambition was to inherit the company,
so I tried to earn your approval.
When you and Mom got divorced,
I was cold to Mom.
I was scared you would dislike me.
After I saw...
Mom getting ready to go,
I decided to let go of unnecessary greed.
Okay.
I'm being greedy...
by trying to leave the business to you.
Mom.
- Let me see. - I'm okay.
Look at me.
My gosh.
- Are you okay? - Yes, I'm fine.
I'm okay.
I'll sleep in this room from now on.
I'm heartbroken, so my heart is oozing out...
(His heart is oozing out?)
My heart is oozing out?
This is driving me insane.
I can't listen to... That. Yes. I'm out of it.
(I'm so out of it.)
No, not Joon Seok.
Oh, sorry.
I'm such an awful...
(Thinking about his memories with Lara)
(This is done without any script.)
And...
Cut!
(Man, that was tough.)
- If there is... - I'm not done yet.
(My line wasn't over.)
I wasn't done yet.
(Chi Bok is here.)
(What did he do?)
Under the skirt. I mean, 10cm under your knees.
(Is it above? Or below?)
I'll do that again.
