You must've had severe pain...
as it progressed this far.
Why did you come this late?
(Episode 37)
I thought...
I was having a headache because I had a lot to think about.
Is there any way to treat it?
She has to go through surgery and radiation treatment.
It has a low probability of success.
How much probability is it?
It's less than 10 percent.
Okay.
You need to begin the treatment right away.
You shouldn't leave the hospital like this.
I need some time to think.
There's nothing to think about.
Even though there's a low probability of success,
we need to try it if that's the only way.
Let me get some sleep.
Goodness.
It's all right even if it's a small role.
I want to act in that drama for certain.
What's wrong with you?
I told you I have no role to give you.
It's easy to make up a small role.
Why would a scriptwriter make an unnecessary role?
I'll be honest.
Dong Woo...
likes Lara.
I need to be part of that drama...
and keep an eye on them.
That gives me another reason against your idea.
They're adults.
Let them be sincere towards their feelings.
Do you know how much their age difference is?
She's 15 years older than him.
So what?
If the two love each other,
it can't be helped.
My goodness.
You just don't understand how moms feel.
How do you write with that narrow perspective?
Will you do nothing if your son wants to marry...
a divorced woman who's 15 years older than him?
Yes.
I have no energy to stop the two.
I feel like I'm talking to a wall.
Welcome home.
Hello.
The shooting starts next week, right?
- Yes. - It'll take three months, right?
Yes.
All right. Go in.
Okay.
Three months...
Yes, I got home safely.
You dropped me off in front of my house, so why would you worry?
You thought I'd trip on the threshold?
Okay. Go home, and take a rest already.
Bye.
Look at you.
What?
You're back from a date with someone, right?
What do you mean? I just had a meal.
With whom? Mr. Kim?
He begged me to have a meal together, so I couldn't help it.
Finally, Young Hee is...
going to be in a romantic relationship.
What do you mean, romantic? It's nothing.
Don't try to change the topic.
How is it going between you and Bum Woo?
He closed his mind completely.
That's great.
Take this chance, and transfer to Do Hyun.
My love isn't a bus.
So you love him?
Forget it. I need to work.
Is he still like this after taking the private lesson?
Yes.
What do you think? I improved a lot, right?
Can't you do this?
Can't you?
It's distracting. Sit down.
Why can't you do this?
I had no idea you'd be bad at dancing.
I can pull it off if I practice enough.
I can't focus because of Do Na.
That's why I'm struggling.
What excuse would you make without Do Na?
Goodness, punk.
She has terminal brain tumor.
She has to go through surgery and radiation treatment.
It has a low probability of success.
It's less than 10 percent.
Let's get treated at the hospital.
No, I won't.
Lara.
I need to film Do Na's drama.
I have no time to get hospitalized and treated.
You'll die then.
I know, but I only have a 10-percent success.
I can't lose my chance for that.
Doctor Yoon told us...
that I might die during the operation.
I want to make use of the 3 to 6 months that I have left.
I want to work hard with Do Na until then...
even if it means my death.
Why are you so stupid?
Why not just get treated and work with her all your life?
Come to think of it,
there aren't many people who lived as happy as I did.
I don't even hope to be that lucky.
I'm going to grab the last luck given to me...
with both my hands.
Why do you...
only think about Do Na?
What about me, Hye Mi, and Sung Ah? Don't you think about us?
What about us if you leave us?
If you...
really love me,
please let me do what I want.
I really want to be in this drama.
As an actress, I want to leave my last major work before I go.
Please understand that.
Just like how I can't give up on you,
I can't just let you go like this.
No.
Don't tell Do Na about this.
If you do, I'm never going to see you again...
until the moment I die.
Mom.
Oh, Hye Mi.
Did you come to see Dad?
Yes. I was just leaving after seeing him.
By the way,
why do you look so drawn?
Joon Ho is still keeping his distance from you?
Yes. His parents even got me herbal medicine...
so I can get pregnant soon,
but Joon Ho keeps treating me the same way. It's killing me.
Are you sure there isn't another woman?
Yes.
Dad's secretary looked into it, and he said there was no problem.
He wouldn't have told you even if he found out something.
He would've told your dad instead.
Your dad might have taken care of it himself,
thinking it's better that you don't know about it.
Do you really think so?
So you should check it yourself. Okay?
The production company says...
they will arrange an overnight trip for us to become closer.
That's good. It's nice to have such an event.
That sounds great.
We'll get closer in no time if we get drunk together.
Yes. You should rearrange...
the actors' schedules and fix the date.
Don't worry.
You're here. Come on in.
Hello, I'm Mi So.
Nice to meet you. I'm Shin Dong Woo, the director of Team B.
Nice to meet you. I'm Kim Chul Sun, the production assistant.
I'm a fan of yours, Mi So.
This is my first acting job after working as an idol singer.
I'm quite worried about it.
It'd be great if you helped me out.
Okay. Mi So,
we'll be going on a trip soon. When are you free?
I'm always free, Director Ha.
You must be busy. Are you sure you can make time?
I've cleared my schedule to film this drama.
Great job, everyone.
That's all for today.
I assume that you only showed me...
30 percent of your true ability at this script reading.
I believe...
you will show me the 70 percent once we start filming.
Please have your meal, and enjoy your free time.
There are many great places nearby,
so please go around and take a look.
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
You lied to me.
Lara isn't a married woman.
How did you know?
Hwa Im came to see me.
She asked me to give her a minor role...
so she can keep an eye on you two.
Did you tell her yes?
I enjoy watching and getting upset over other people's love affairs.
But why did you lie to me?
She wants...
to get back together with her ex-husband soon.
Is that what she wants?
You must be frustrated.
I am.
I moved out of my aunt's house to avoid her oppression.
She's not back with her ex-husband yet.
Why don't you express your feelings more aggressively?
You have an ability to stir women's hearts.
Really.
It wasn't easy to stir her heart.
Maybe you didn't give it your best.
Bum Woo.
No matter how dangerous you are...
No matter how sick you are,
I am ready to accept it.
It's not because I pity you. It's because I like you.
So please...
don't run away from me.
No.
I love you.
Now, I realized it.
I'm sorry it took me a long time to realize it.
But...
I've never done this before.
I've never had these feelings before.
I didn't know what it was.
But...
I miss you.
I want to hold your hand,
and I want us to smile together...
while looking at each other.
If you do this, I can't run away, can I?
(Hyunpoong Chicken Kalguksu)
This is the franchise my grandma is opening.
It's the opening today, so she will be here too.
It's not even open yet, but there are already many people.
That's how good my grandma is. Let's go in.
Okay.
- It's really delicious. - I know, right?
There is a problem.
What? What problem?
I signed the contract for the advertisement,
and it had a term that I can't date anyone.
I heard it's something common among actors.
I'm sorry.
It's okay. We can just date in secret.
They say it's really thrilling.
Thank you for understanding.
I'm a woman of huge heart like the Pacific Ocean.
I gave you something you can brag about again.
You're here.
Hello, Ms. Park. Congratulations on the opening.
Thank you.
Where are the rest?
They're taking a rest after the script reading.
I didn't want to bother them, so I didn't tell them.
Is that so?
Thank you for coming. Please enjoy your food.
Tell me if you need anything.
Okay.
Is she still here?
What happened?
You disappeared in the middle of drinking, and you're here.
Is something wrong?
I don't think I can do this.
I have to take responsibility for so many people.
It scares me.
I shouldn't have become a writer in the first place.
There she goes again.
She does this every time.
- Would you like some coffee? - Sure.
Iced coffee for me. I'm feeling really frustrated.
Okay.
Writer Yoon, no one expects you to be responsible for everything.
You only share half the responsibility.
The other half is ours.
He's right.
We're not going to make you take the blame for everything.
We'll also step in and help you out,
so don't be so scared.
Do you want to drink?
My gosh, it's too early to drink alcohol.
Plus, you don't even stay sane when you drink.
You're not allowed to drink until we're done shooting the drama.
Why don't you just tell me to die?
The hardest thing about this work is keeping Writer Yoon under control.
Just think of it as if you're dealing with a child.
I have you to take care of that.
You're the main director in charge.
I'm only helping because it's your first time.
You need to do things on your own from now on.
But once you're done working with someone particular like Writer Yoon,
working with other writers will become easier.
Do you think so?
I feel like all the writers in this industry are particular.
You might be right. No one's easy to deal with.
But the worst is Writer Yoon.
By the way, Do Na.
- Yes? - Are you happy about something?
What? Me? What do you mean?
We had to come to Seoul because Writer Yoon had disappeared,
but you kept smiling. You're smiling right now as well.
There's nothing in particular. I'm being serious.
Forget it, then.
- Hello. - Hi.
By the way, why do you look so pale?
I guess it's because I drank last night.
Oh, I see. What about Do Na?
She went to Writer Yoon's office.
Writer Yoon suddenly disappeared while we were drinking.
She must be going through so much.
Writer Yoon is famous for being very difficult.
She's also really slow with completing the scripts.
But she's still a good writer.
- I'll go now. - Okay.
Please let me live a little more than three months.
Gosh, this is totally a stab in the back.
You little punks.
I'm sorry.
One thing led to another, and we ended up dating.
But you need to keep this a secret no matter what.
I'm only being honest with you because I didn't want to lie to you.
- I'm sorry. - Forget it.
Just forget it. I'm going to drink some soju.
- I'll join. - Me too.
No.
I don't want to be with you guys, so don't follow me.
Why did you come again?
Let's go to the hospital.
I've given it some thought, and I really can't seem to...
give up on you like this.
I'm going to do whatever it takes to save your life, Lara.
There are things you can't buy with money.
For example, things like love and life.
I already made up my mind.
How can it be so easy for you?
Don't you even feel upset?
You're only 50 years old.
You're too young to die.
How...
do you expect me...
to let you go so easily like this?
We lived a happy life...
for 25 years.
I don't ask for more.
Please think of it in my shoes.
I...
can't live without you.
That's not true.
You'll be able to fight through.
And your pain will fade away one day.
Please.
Can you please get treated?
I don't have time.
I want to use the time I have left wisely.
Please understand.
Hello.
Where's Dong Woo?
Where is he?
Why are you asking me?
He ran away from home.
He won't even answer my calls.
You're the one who seduced him.
I didn't know he ran away from home.
My baby left home because of you.
You're the one who split us apart. Do you know that?
Excuse me. I understand where all this is coming from,
but what's the use of asking her when she doesn't know anything?
On top of that, she doesn't even like your nephew.
You don't know what you're talking about.
You don't know how sly she acts in front of him.
She sticks by him whenever she can and flatters him.
That's enough.
Lara really doesn't know where Director Shin is.
Really?
Then you must know where he is.
Where is he? Tell me.
I can't tell you.
He doesn't want you to know.
You little...
You can hit me instead. Do Na did nothing wrong.
She was born out of wedlock.
She knows that her father committed adultery with you.
So she might think there's no love that's impossible.
Don't you dare insult Do Na.
They say, "The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree."
She was born an illegitimate child,
so she must be okay with any kind of love affair that exists.
Why are you causing a fuss here?
What did Lara do so wrong for you to even bring up my birth?
Director Shin is the one who likes Lara.
Why are you taking it out on us?
If you're so angry, why don't you try to convince him?
I will. I'm going to convince him.
But I need to know where he is. So tell me where he is.
He left home because of you.
So how do you expect me...
to tell you where he is right now?
That's why I'm saying you're in this together.
The mother seduces him, and the daughter helps him hide.
Where is he? Tell me where he is.
- Why can't you tell me? - My gosh.
- Where is he? - Ms. Shin.
Ms. Shin, let's go outside.
- Come on. - Let me go! Let go of me!
- Ms. Shin, let's go. - I said, let go!
You little brats. I'm not going to stand still!
(Episode 38)
I never imagined Director Shin would like Lara.
He left his house because of that.
It means he likes her for real.
He's suffering a lot.
Is Lara being swayed by any chance?
What?
I mean, every woman will be swayed...
to be loved by a man like Director Shin.
She isn't like you.
How are you so sure?
She'll get back together with her ex-husband.
- Really? - Yes.
Or maybe she's running away...
because she's afraid of Ms. Shin, you,
and the others' criticisms.
I think that's a very reasonable thing to do.
It wouldn't be the case.
Did you find out about his whereabouts?
Do Na, that brat,
knows where he is, but she won't tell me.
She's Lara's daughter after all.
Exactly.
She might have said she was getting back together with her ex-husband...
to buy time.
To tire me out and pull something.
Her daughter must be helping them out.
Maybe.
Gosh, my head hurts.
Ha Kyung, go get me some headache pills.
How about we try doing this?
I want to know how you really feel.
Do you have any feelings for...
I don't.
I want to focus on this drama.
That's why I'm delaying getting back with him.
Once the shooting ends,
I'll go back to him.
And you'll keep that promise, right?
Yes.
Okay, I get it.
- Goodnight. - Goodnight.
That fish stew restaurant is the most delicious in this town.
Right, it's delicious.
- Is something the matter? - I need to go somewhere.
Dong Woo, what happened?
Aunt.
She has high blood pressure.
It could've been dangerous.
I guess you're human after all.
You're here now that I collapsed.
- I'm sorry. - Come back home if you are.
I want to stay outside for the time being.
You really...
want to see me die?
I'm telling you this not for another reason.
I need time to clear my mind.
So...
you'll give up on her for certain, right?
Yes.
Why did you give her your heart from the start?
Take care.
I'll talk to the doctor before I go.
No, no.
You don't have to talk to the doctor.
I'll recover soon if you come back.
Please have a seat.
Eat something too.
I quit drinking and smoking.
I can't think of anything because of the withdrawal symptoms.
It's driving me crazy.
Well, Writer Yoon.
Do you think you can write again...
if you drink only a little?
Of course.
It's so disgusting.
Since when have they been drinking?
It's been more than five hours.
Look.
I know that you can pull this off.
Of course, I should.
I'll starve to death if I don't.
Right?
You think you should pull this off too, right?
Right, Do Na.
I'm so happy to have a friend...
like you.
I'm happy too.
Goodness.
Look at you.
Put Writer Yoon to sleep.
Do Na, wake up. Let's go.
- Do Na, wake up. - I can do it!
- Director Ha. - Goodness.
- Director Shin. - Put on your outerwear.
- Hello. - Hi, Director Shin.
Hello.
- Where are you going? - Let's go.
- Well... - Where are you going?
- Ji Yeong. - Where are you going?
- Hey. - Let's go in your room.
Where are you going?
- Ji Yeong. - Bye.
Bye.
Hey, Bum Woo.
Goodness.
She insisted to see you before going back home.
So I called you out.
Take care of her from now on.
Bye.
- Goodbye, Director Shin. - Bye.
- Did you drink a lot? - Yes.
I finished 2 bottles of liquor alone for the 1st time in my life.
I made a bet with Writer Yoon, and I lost.
I called you out to brag about this.
You lost, so you have nothing to brag about.
Still, I finished two bottles of liquor alone.
Aren't you proud of me?
I am.
I'm happy to have a drunk girlfriend.
I was drinking,
and I missed you so much.
You missed me too, right?
Yes.
If you were going to be like this,
how did you manage to reject me all those times?
Wasn't I cute...
when playing hard to get?
You were so naughty. I hated it.
- Bum Woo. - Yes?
Let's kiss.
No, you reek of alcohol.
Come on. Let's do it.
Come on.
Look at you.
How dare you reject my kiss?
Let's do it when you're sober.
Oh, right.
Get sober before you go home. You might get scolded by your grandma.
I know...
you're doing this to be with me for longer.
You're doing this to kiss me when I reek less of alcohol.
You look like a pervert now.
You want to die?
You brat. Hey.
Hey.
I can't believe I love someone with a terrible, drunken habit.
Still, don't you think I'm so cute?
Do Na.
Hi, Bum Woo.
Well... Hi.
Keep it a secret.
For free?
Talk casually to me from now on.
Then I'll keep it a secret for certain.
That's a bit...
I'll tell the reporters...
that Kim Bum Woo and Ha Do Na are dating.
Wait.
You want me to talk to you casually, and that's it?
Let me call you by your name too.
Isn't it a bit too big of a demand?
Then I'll go tell them now.
Okay.
Call my name only when it's necessary, all right?
Don't call my name anytime.
Okay.
Do Na.
The egg roll tastes amazing.
Do Na, this kimchi tastes really nice. You should try some.
Okay.
Do Na, you drank a lot last night. So eat a lot of soup.
It'll get rid of your hangover.
Ms. Park, Do Na must be really good at drinking.
She drank so much last night,
but her face didn't swell at all.
You're right. Her grandfather used to be a heavy drinker.
She must've gotten that from him.
Hey, are you still drunk?
Why?
Sung Ah kept calling your name, but you didn't say anything.
That's because I couldn't be bothered to deal with her.
Are you kidding me?
I'm tired of dealing with her now.
Or maybe you really think of her as your younger sister now.
Cut the nonsense.
Please prescribe...
the strongest pain killers so that I can focus on acting.
Chairman Jung wants you to undergo surgery.
I don't want to die in the OR.
Please help me live the rest of my life with no regrets.
Please help me, doctor.
Bum Woo.
Let's practice the scene where both of us sing together.
Do you know how to dance?
I'm not that good.
Then you should be taking dance lessons.
I'm practicing by myself.
You're not being professional enough.
You should be more desperate to learn.
Hey, let's start practicing.
(I'm the hero of tonight)
I'm the hero of tonight
It's me
I'm the one who's been waiting for you
It's me
I'm the one who's going to steal your heart
It's me.
I'm the one who's going to win
I'm the hero of tonight
- What are we going to do? - It's me
- I don't know. - It's me
It's me
I noticed that she's wearing the same ring as mine.
It's not a coincidence, is it?
Did you think you'd be able to fool me forever?
I'll end it with her.
I'm guessing my dad already knows.
You probably acted like you broke up after he gave you a warning.
Hye Mi.
But you're still seeing her in secret like this.
I'll end it with her soon.
That's probably what you told my dad.
I must...
see her.
She's here?
I was going to go see you.
- Mr. Park. - Yes, ma'am.
You knew that Hye Mi's husband was having an affair, didn't you?
How did you find out about that?
- You may leave now. - Yes, ma'am.
How can you keep that from her?
I didn't think it was necessary for Hye Mi to know.
Plus, I already took care of everything.
What are you talking about?
Joon Ho's still seeing that girl.
What?
Hye Mi told me that Joon Ho's still being distant.
So I told her to look into it herself.
She saw a photo of them together.
That little jerk.
Stop thinking that everything will go your way.
Sometimes, there are things you can't control.
You shouldn't get yourself involved in our kids' lives.
Okay.
You don't need to worry about this matter.
Hye Mi and I will take care of it.
And while you're here,
let's go to the hospital together.
I already went to see him yesterday.
He prescribed pain killers for me.
Lara, I'm begging you.
Can you please get treated?
I made myself clear about the choice I've made.
So please don't ask me to receive treatment from now on.
We're here, so you can go now.
No, I'm going to see you go inside.
The parking lot's too far away.
You'll end up catching a cold.
Why?
I didn't know you'd be so considerate.
I just said what I said because I was worried.
Every considerate thing you say to me stays deep in my heart.
You're like a little boy.
That's because I'm with someone who's like a little girl.
People will throw up if they hear our conversation.
I don't care about the others.
All that matters is us.
- Don't trust me too much. - Pardon?
There's another side to me that even I'm not fully aware of.
You never know when I might turn cold.
You could say I'm a femme fatale.
You're exactly my type.
Trouble me as much as you want.
I'm ready to go through every hardship you give me.
You seem overly confident.
There's no reason not to be.
I'm the one who's receiving Joon Ho's love.
You're just a woman who's living as his wife.
Don't you know that you're just his mistress?
I know.
I chose that position for myself.
I won't argue about the fact that...
you guys started seeing each other before our marriage.
But Joon Ho's a married man now.
Aren't you ashamed to continue seeing him even when you know that?
The only woman Joon Ho loves is me.
Why should I be ashamed?
Now that I know about you,
I cannot approve of your relationship.
I'm always ready to leave...
because I'm not the one holding onto him.
Give it a try if you can.
See if you can make Joon Ho let go of me.
I'll...
make him let go.
How long has it been?
Well, the thing is...
She told me confidently that...
even you couldn't split the two of them apart.
What an arrogant brat.
There's nothing to worry about.
Men always tend to cheat on their wives from time to time.
I've been through the same thing.
Just turn a blind eye.
They'll end up coming back because they feel sorry.
I'm a newlywed.
They've been seeing each other before we even got married.
He gave her the same ring and necklace as mine.
How can I pretend like I'm fine with that?
Did he seriously do that?
I'm willing to forgive him just this once.
So please make Joon Ho...
come to his senses.
Okay. I will.
Don't worry.
But...
let's not tell his father about this.
If he finds out that Joon Ho is still seeing that girl,
he will kill Joon Ho.
It's something he should know.
Hye Mi, please don't.
Have you heard from Mr. Yoo yet?
No.
I hope he comes back from his trip soon.
Me too.
I'd like to meet the man you like...
and see what kind of person he is.
He looks scary.
Really?
When I saw him at the police station before,
he didn't look that way.
He has a bad temper too.
Why did you start to like him then?
Well, I guess...
I grew attached to him while arguing with him.
I also want to see Do Na...
happy with Do Hyun soon.
That might be difficult.
You're probably right.
Do Na is all about her work.
That's part of the reason, I guess.
What?
Yes.
Okay, I got it.
Writer Yoon started writing.
You're lucky.
Normally, she would've disappeared once or twice by now.
She's not causing much trouble this time.
It's all thanks to you.
I'm glad you know.
Hello.
Hi. What brings you here?
Director Ha said...
she wanted to drink coffee.
You two are...
teasing me in an obvious way now.
Well...
It looks like I'll have to work all night,
but I wanted to see him.
Gosh, Do Na. I didn't know...
you'd become so brazen once you start dating.
Right.
I just can't help it.
I don't want to drink that coffee now.
Director Shin, please take it.
Director Shin isn't mad at us, is he?
No.
He went out so we can spend some time alone.
Are you done studying your character?
I'm still thinking.
Joon Seok is such a complicated character.
- Chul Sun. - Bum Woo, you're here.
Yes. Hello.
What brings you here at this late hour?
Where is Director Shin?
I brought you some late-night snack.
- We didn't ask you to. - Come on.
You two are working all night.
I can't just sleep at home as the production assistant.
As I was saying,
Joon Seok is a very complicated character. Do you understand?
What? Oh, yes.
So let's go outside, get a cup of coffee,
and talk about this further.
You have coffee right there.
Hey.
Only the coffee from the vending machine wakes you up.
What do you know about coffee? Let's go.
This coffee is for Director Shin.
Maybe I should've just stayed home.
This is the place where we first met.
No, I saw you several times at auditions.
This is the place where we first met like it was our fate.
Why are you so insensitive for a woman?
Did you just give me a blow?
How dare I give you a blow?
You always speak to me politely,
but you take liberties with me.
You should've accepted me when I first told you I liked you.
You made me eat my heart out.
You don't think you made me worry too?
You made me worry...
for a much longer time.
It was a more emotion-consuming process for me.
Are you picking a fight?
What? You're being rude to me again.
- You're so... - What?
- What? - What?
- What? - Stop it.
- What? - What?
What are you doing here?
I came up here to avoid you and get some fresh air,
and now, you're here.
Are you really trying to tease me?
- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.
How does it feel to be in love with each other?
It feels warm.
I see.
I thought...
this winter was colder than usual.
Hello?
Why did you want to see me?
I'm sorry I asked you to meet me at such a late hour.
Let me pour you a glass.
I brought my car.
You will...
need a drink anyway.
She has...
Lara has...
a terminal brain tumor.
What?
