[Episode 39]
I've started to feel like I want to dedicate myself to my craft again.
But...
I'll rush back here if I feel like anything might happen.
And I hope that everything goes well with your book, Ms. Jung Won.
And I hope that your restaurant is successful, Hae Sung.
Yes.
It's nice to see you trying again, Boss.
I hope for a good outcome.
Please, drink your tea.
Hae Sung!
Sung Hae Sung.
Jung Won.
It's okay.
I'm okay.
Hae Sung.
Are... you all right?
Yes.
I'm going to stay like this...
for just a bit.
We really must not have much time left anymore.
Remember how I told you
that I made a wish on a shooting star, last time?
You said that your wish was a secret.
I wished that I could be allowed to be happy with you forever.
Do you think that my wish will come true?
Let's work hard...
at loving each other with all we've got...
in the time that we have left together.
We've created so many wonderful memories together.
Thank you for that.
Thanks for coming back.
I love you.
What?
Say that again.
You look even prettier when I'm looking at you like this.
No, stop changing the subject.
Oh...
I'm so hungry. What should I make you?
What about bibimbap?
Here.
Yum!
It tastes good.
I love you.
Me too.
I love you too.
Let's eat.
Let's go to Daddy, Gong Joo.
Okay. But what about Auntie?
She'll be with Daddy.
Oh.
Wait here for a bit, Gong Joo.
- I'll come back after taking this call. - Okay, Mister.
Yeah, Yoo Min?
Where's our Gong Joo?
I've hidden her away well.
Put me on speakerphone so that the people with you can hear me.
You want me to put you on speakerphone?
Record the call. Record the call.
[Jason Park, Record Conversation]
Listen carefully to what I'm about to say.
Hey, where's our Gong Joo?
I'll seriously kill you if something happens to her!
Mr. Sung Hae Chul, father of Gong Joo.
I said, listen carefully to what I'm about to say.
Don't come after me.
If you appear before me before I get on the plane
you'll never see Gong Joo again.
I said, where is our Gong Joo, you bastard!
If you want Gong Joo back...
don't do anything, and just wait.
I'll tell you when my plane takes off.
Hey. Hey!
[The conversation has been recorded.]
Damn it!
Two tickets for Busan, please.
[Nambu Terminal to Busan]
What do you mean, Park Dong Seok took Gong Joo?
Where is he now?
I don't know.
He's probably not doing anything to Gong Joo, is he?
What do I do, Big Bro?
What do we do?
Calm down, and tell us everything in detail.
What did Park Dong Seok say?
He said that we have to sit tight and do nothing until his plane takes off
and he'll only tell us where Gong Joo is if we do that.
It'll be all over for us when he gets on the plane, since he's a U.S. citizen.
What do we do?
Ugh, seriously, what do we do?
What am I going to do about my Gong Joo, darn it?
Wait. Calm down, Hae Chul, okay?
He must have laid out some terms, right?
We recorded the phone conversation we had with him. Here, have a listen.
Give me your phone.
[Recording of: Call with Jason Park]
Mr. Sung Hae Chul, father of Gong Joo.
I said, listen carefully to what I'm about to say.
Don't come after me.
If you appear before me before I get on the plane
you'll never see Gong Joo again.
I'll kill you, you bastard! Where is Gong Joo right now?
If you want Gong Joo back...
don't do anything, and just wait.
Wait, rewind a bit.
I'll tell you when my plane takes off.
Don't come after me.
If you appear before me before I get on the plane
you'll never see Gong Joo again.
Two tickets for Busan, please.
How long does it take to get to Busan?
I'll kill you, you bastard! Where is Gong Joo right now?
Hey.
We've reported Gong Joo as kidnapped
and we've shared the photos with other police stations too.
Park Dong Seok called you from
an express bus terminal.
A place that sells tickets going to Busan.
- Busan? - Busan?
Wait a second.
Does that mean that bastard sent Gong Joo to Busan alone? Huh?
Daddy!
Gong Joo!
Daddy!
Yes, I'm sorry, Gong Joo. I'm so sorry.
Daddy! Daddy!
I'm so sorry, Gong Joo!
Hey, Park Dong Seok.
Um, who...
It's me, Ho Bang.
Shin Ho Bang.
Oh, yeah. Shin Ho Bang.
Hey, shall we go and talk somewhere that's more quiet?
Sure.
Let's go.
What do all of you want?
Confess to what you did.
Move.
If you get in my way now, you'll never be able to see Gong Joo again.
- Hurry and move. - Gong Joo?
We saw that you put Gong Joo on a bus headed for Busan.
Gong Joo is safe with her mom and dad now.
What you did to Gong Joo alone is unforgivable.
Hurry up and admit that you were the murderer 12 years ago.
F... fine.
I... I was near the art room that night.
But I saw Sung Hae Sung killing Yang Kyung Chul with my own eyes.
I was so scared that I couldn't say anything up until now.
But Sung Hae Sung is the culprit!
I didn't kill Yang Kyung Chul though.
What's this?
What are you people doing?
I didn't kill Yang Kyung Chul.
So how did you see me kill him?
Should I ask Yang Kyung Chul himself?
- Ow! - Jung Won!
Jung Won!
Hey! Hey you! Hey!
Park Dong Seok.
I'll tell you one last time.
Tell us the truth.
Hey, the car might explode if we're not careful.
I'll be leaving now, if you have nothing to say.
Sung Hae Sung! Save me!
Save me! Save me!
What?
Do you even know what you did?
You killed your friend, and blamed me for it!
My younger siblings and my friends...
do you know how many people suffered because of you?
I'm sorry! It was... it was all my fault!
Hae Sung, I think the car may really explode!
Please, save me!
Get away from the car, Ho Bang. Hurry!
Hurry and get away, Ho Bang!
What are you saying?
Hurry up and get away! Hurry up and go!
Hae Sung.
Run, Hae Sung!
Why...
did you save me?
There's one last thing you can do.
Clear my name in front of the whole world...
and release my friends and siblings from the sorrow and injustice
that has burdened them for so long.
I...
killed Yang Kyung Chul.
He made me mad and I ended up fighting with him in the art room...
and then, I killed him.
Park Dong Seok.
I am...
placing you under arrest
for the crime of Yang Kyung Chul's murder
from 12 years ago.
The family of the deceased Mr. Sung, who was wrongfully convicted 12 years ago
cannot hide their joy.
According to the police, the culprit, Mr. Park, has confessed his crime.
The family and friends of Mr. Sung, who died and was framed for the murder
tirelessly tracked down the real culprit behind this murder.
And thus, the truth prevailed.
This has been Jung Chan Soo of SBC News.
Wow.
All that there's left for us to do now is to live happily ever after, right?
They caught the real culprit, and Big Bro Hae Sung cleared his name.
The restaurant is doing well.
And now, we have Gong Joo living with us too!
Yeah, and your surgery ended well too.
Oh, and your picture book is going to be on sale soon too, right?
Wow, that's so cool, Jung Won.
All that there's left for us to do now is to live happily ever after, right?
Of course, of course.
Gong Joo.
Shall we go and get some ice cream?
- Yes! - Let's go!
- Wow, how yummy! - You're so lucky!
- Have fun! - Bye now!
Let's go!
You guys.
I'm...
going back soon.
What do you mean by that?
Just as I suddenly appeared here one day...
I'll disappear again some day...
as suddenly as I came.
I don't know when I'll be going, exactly.
But I don't think I have much time left here.
B... Big Brother.
Big Bro.
Let's not be sad, okay?
The time we had together was short...
but...
the fact that I was able to see all of you again...
made me so happy.
And, above all else...
I'm so glad that I was able to...
release you all from the pain...
of being called a murderer's siblings for the past 12 years...
and see you all smile.
It makes me so happy.
I don't know when the end will be...
but let's not be sad, even until the very end
and live out the rest of our time together happily, okay?
Hae Sung.
I'm so sorry, Hae Sung!
I only thought of my own son.
I only cared about covering up Tae Hoon's crime
that I lost sight of everything else!
So I even did such a thing to you!
I really am sorry!
I truly deserve to die for what I did to you and your family!
I know this is way overdue...
but I'll pay the price for my crime!
I'll go confess my crime right now, okay?
I'll go confess.
Don't do that.
I'll take everything to the grave.
It will be difficult...
to receive forgiveness for what you did, but...
But I don't want anyone to be hurt anymore.
I'd like it if we could just put this to rest here.
If you live the rest of your life
feeling remorse for what you did...
then you might be able to receive forgiveness.
I really am sorry!
I'm so sorry, Hae Sung!
Tae Hoon.
There is something...
that I never told you.
You...
have an older brother.
What?
An older brother?
Go ahead and speak to him.
What brings you here?
I just met with Hae Sung...
and apologized to him.
You apologized...
to Hae Sung?
Yeah.
I confessed everything to Hae Sung...
and asked for his forgiveness.
I'll pay the price for my crimes now.
I've told Tae Hoon...
all about you too.
That you are also my son--
I'm...
sorry that I kept our relationship a secret all this time.
That was wrong of me.
I really am sorry, Min Joon.
I won't ask you to forgive me.
I will live...
the rest of my life...
in repentance.
I'm sorry.
Father!
Do you remember Woo Ji Yeon?
She was the deputy class rep of our class when we were third years.
Yeah, I know her.
She found my number somehow, and called me.
She said that she saw the news.
Oh, really?
She said she was so surprised to see your name get cleared
and she knew that you and I were close, so she said she was happy for me.
I felt so thankful.
Yeah, I feel really thankful.
My younger siblings got a lot of congratulatory phone calls too.
Seeing your younger siblings so happy
makes me so happy.
Thinking about how shamefully they lived their lives up until now
makes me feel so bad.
Hae Sung.
How about you rent a vacation home with your siblings, and go on a trip?
Yeah, sounds good!
You can choose the location.
No, I'm not going.
You're not coming?
Don't just hang out with me, and go with your siblings.
But why?
This trip should be a siblings-only trip.
Let's call Young In now and decide on a date and place.
Wait, wait.
Then you have to promise me
that you'll be okay until I get back.
Why are you acting so immature?
It's because I like you, Jung Won.
Aw, thanks so much for being considerate of my siblings too.
Don't even worry about me, and go have a great time with your siblings.
All right. Thanks.
Wow, the air here is so nice!
Breathe in all this nice air, Soo Ji, since it won't cost me anything.
Geez, what a petty thing to say!
Don't hit my daddy, Aunt.
Oh my goodness, look at her, standing up for her dad!
Oh, you're so silly.
Gong Joo!
Oh, it was so good of you to have said that, Gong Joo! Good job!
Here.
Hyah!
Oh, Big Brother Young Joon!
Oh.
Young Joon!
Enjoy.
Wow, these are so great!
Really?
We'll be able to publish the book next month, at this rate.
Can't we get it published faster?
That all depends on you, Ms. Jung Won.
All right. I'll work hard!
Both the drawings and the story itself
are so nice and heartwarming.
I think that this project will go well.
Thank you.
I'm taking the photo now!
- Yum! - Yum!
This tastes good. You're good at cooking now, Hae Chul.
- Really? - Yeah.
I made it, so eat as much as you want!
Eat up, Jin Joo!
- Yes, Uncle. - Okay.
Wow, the pork belly tastes good, Big Bro!
- Yeah. - Can you pass me the lettuce, Big Bro?
Sure.
Don't put too much sauce in it.
Yes, Doctor.
Oh yeah, Young Joon and Soo Ji need to watch their diets for the time being.
Yeah, I'll take good care of Soo Ji.
Wow, it sure is nice to have an elder brother who's a doctor to rely on!
Oh yeah, Hae Chul.
Have you gotten used to working in the kitchen?
He gets yelled at by Big Bro Hae Sung every day.
But Big Sister Young In has a lot of customer service experience
so she's a good server.
Yeah, I'm the only one who gets yelled at every day!
I get told that my rice is too sticky, or that I work too slowly
or that I have no eye for detail!
Or that I'm not generous enough when it comes to using ingredients!
He's like a nagging old geezer!
Wow.
Well, Big Bro has always been like a nagging old geezer.
Big Brother Hae Sung...
can't you just stay?
Do you want to go somewhere with Uncle, Gong Joo?
- Okay. - Okay.
Are you going somewhere, Uncle?
No, I'm not going anywhere.
You really aren't leaving, right?
Yeah, I'm not going anywhere.
You can't leave, okay?
I'm not leaving.
[Final Episode]
You're up?
Just a second! It's all done.
Here.
Did you sleep well?
Yeah.
Oh, I didn't even know you got up, and kept on sleeping.
You must have been so tired since you were drawing all night.
Here, eat this.
What should we do today?
Well...
Let's eat breakfast, then walk around the neighborhood.
Then, let's have a cup of coffee.
Should we go see that movie you've been wanting to see after that?
Oh yeah.
You need to get your winter blankets out. It's getting colder at night.
There isn't anything else you want to do?
We went for a walk and drank coffee yesterday too.
Eating breakfast with you every day, holding hands with you
going for walks with you, and talking to you about this or that over coffee...
this is the kind of stuff I like.
Doing normal, everyday things with you.
That's what makes me happy.
I feel the same way.
You said that our friends are coming today, right?
Oh, yeah!
We'll have just enough time if we go grocery shopping after our walk.
Let's eat this quickly, and get washed up.
Okay.
The reason I asked you all to gather here today...
is because...
Shin Ho Bang and I...
are getting married.
- Wow! - Wow!
Goodness! Congrats!
- Congrats! - Congrats!
I'm only giving you guys one wedding gift though, okay?
Moon Shik.
We're not going to have a ceremony at a venue.
We'll just have a simple dinner with our parents, instead of a wedding.
- Ah. - Ah.
Wow, congrats, Jin Joo and Ho Bang! Really. Congratulations!
Be happy together, okay?
Thanks, Hae Sung.
Don't cry.
Oh, you have to get married too, Moon Shik!
Oh, I'm planning to get married after I marry everyone else off.
Huh?
Don't worry about others, and focus on getting yourself married first.
I also have something to announce.
I...
got back together with Young In.
Oh my gosh, that's great, Tae Hoon!
I...
really am such a lucky guy.
Having friends like you guys...
makes me so happy.
All I ever did was impose, but...
Be careful and don't hurt yourself when you're catching culprits, Ho Bang!
And, Tae Hoon.
Don't overwork yourself and neglect your health.
As for you, Moon Shik...
learn how to read the room a bit better, okay?
Take care...
everyone.
Hey, today is the day we announced that we're getting married
so let's take a commemorative photo.
Sure. I have a camera inside. I'll go get it.
Get ready, pose for the camera!
What's with the long looks on your faces, everyone?
Smile a bit!
Smile, smile!
Pose properly!
Yeah, there you go.
All right.
Okay, here we go!
I told you to hurry!
Wait, did you, by any chance...
did you...
Ta-da!
Wow!
[Hello, Hello.]
Jung Won!
"Hello, Hello."
"Written and Illustrated by Jung Jung Won."
Turn the page.
[To my love, Hae Sung.]
"To my..."
"To my love, Hae Sung."
I'll pretend I didn't see it, so hurry and wipe your tears.
Hurry and read it.
You were my very first reader, after all.
Okay.
["Aw, poor thing!"]
["Oh, he looks just like my dog, Hello, that died three years ago."]
["I've been living alone for three years now."]
["Are you doing well, Hello? I was afraid you'd catch a cold."]
Wow, the story is really good!
I'm the one who gave you the idea about this part, right?
Ooh.
Great job, Jung Won. Really.
Thanks.
Excuse me. Did you know that the author of this book--
Hey.
Congratulations, Jung Won.
Thanks. It was all thanks to you.
["Hello, Hello"]
"Written and illustrated by Jung Jung Won."
So Jung Won's book is out now.
Yes.
I wanted to show it to you first
so I came straight here after buying it at the bookstore.
All Jung Won ever did was draw comics insulting me.
Would this be any good?
Grandma!
All right.
I'll give it a read, at least, since I didn't spend my own money on it.
Grandma, I...
I'm going to miss...
your sharp jabs quite a lot.
You came to say farewell, I see.
Yes.
Well, I won't accept your farewell.
So don't you say another word.
All right.
You have to go see Mr. Cha.
Yes.
Hae Sung.
Jung Won's book is out in bookstores now.
I wanted to give you a copy.
["Hello, Hello"]
"Written and illustrated by Jung Jung Won."
That's great.
She has finally found her way now.
Jung Won has said multiple times that it was all thanks to you.
I have to hurry and find my own way too.
I've pushed back my departure date for Paris.
I'm sorry you had to do that because of me.
No, no.
Oh, I heard from Tae Hoon
that you two have decided to have a close, brotherly relationship.
Yeah.
Man, I'm so jealous that Tae Hoon got himself an amazing new older brother.
Tae Hoon is a really nice person.
I'm sure you two will get along great.
Yeah.
I’m so glad...
that I was able to meet you...
after I came back, Min Joon.
Thank you for everything.
Hae Sung.
I can hug you, right?
Yeah.
Hae Sung.
I'll really miss you.
Me too.
Hae Sung.
I'm worried about you the most.
I'm worried that you'll keep doing this.
Just worry about yourself.
Ho Bang.
When it comes to you, I truly feel like...
all I ever did was accept favors from you.
All I ever did was impose on you.
I'm sorry.
Crazy bastard.
Shin Ho Bang.
Just hearing your name was enough to make me feel happy.
I felt like, whenever I called you...
everything would be resolved.
I really can't imagine my life...
without you in it, Ho Bang.
Thanks for everything, Ho Bang.
You have to be happy, no matter what...
and have a nice life, no matter what.
All right, you crazy bastard!
Let's definitely...
meet again.
I'll be sure to repay you for everything you've done for me next time.
Let's definitely meet again.
Yeah.
Take care.
Sung Hae Sung!
Jung Jung Won!
Just a moment, Jung Won.
Hm?
Ta-da!
Let's...
love each other forever.
It's so pretty.
Thanks, Hae Sung.
Hae Sung.
Are you okay?
Hae Sung!
Jung Won.
I think the time has come.
Yeah.
I've loved you...
from the beginning, until now.
And I'll always love you.
Don't be sad.
Jung Won.
Remember me.
No.
I won't remember you.
I'll only...
love you.
Forever.
Jung Won.
I was so happy to be able to love you again.
Thank you for letting me love you again.
Take care.
Farewell.
I love you.
Hae Sung.
There's still something that I didn't tell you.
Let's...
definitely meet again.
Hae Sung.
["Hello, Hello" Book Signing]
[From Jung Jung Won]
- Here you go. - Thank you!
Hello--
Oh, Boss!
I'm glad I could come here before going to Paris.
Thank you for coming.
Hae Sung appeared in my dreams last night.
He was doing well.
Really?
Hae Sung appears in my dreams
whenever I miss him.
I'm so envious.
Oh yeah, here.
[Jung Jung Won]
Have a safe trip, Boss.
All right. And take care and live as well as you do now, Ms. Jung Won.
Let's go see Hae Sung together after I come back.
All right.
[One Year Later]
Are you doing well, Hae Sung?
It's already been a year now.
Everyone that's still here is living quite happily now
because you came back and visited us.
The food here is really good.
The sign for the restaurant, which you couldn't decide on
has been hung up by your younger siblings.
["5 Siblings Restaurant"]
And it gets tons of customers too, since it's become famous as a hidden gem.
I'm going to go to class now.
- All right! - See you later!
Soo Ji, who you worried about, is now healthy
and is a splendid college student now.
We're open for business now!
Welcome!
Hae Chul forgave Gong Joo's mom and the three of them became a family.
And now, they're my neighbors too.
Gong Joo makes things tough for us since she asks for you sometimes.
Oh yeah.
Tae Hoon and Young In are getting married soon.
Where will we have their wedding, Honey?
I'm sure they're taking care of that on their own.
Is there any place you have in mind?
Welcome back.
Young Joon returned to Taesan Hospital.
What about you, Mom?
I'm glad you're back.
And he has started dating Ms. Seo Won again.
Isn't that great?
Say "ah," baby!
- Ah! - Aw!
Jin Joo and Ho Bang are still lovey-dovey since they're newlyweds.
And...
you can guess how Moon Shik is doing, right?
So I'll just skip him.
Ah!
I'm so full, I can't eat anymore.
What's wrong with you?
We need to talk.
Why? What's wrong?
What? What? What? Huh?
- Whoa! - Stay still!
- What? - Stay still!
You need to get married, Moon Shik! Get married!
Ow!
And Boss became a totally famous chef after he came back from Paris.
May I ask who has helped you the most in becoming who you are today?
Um...
there was someone who was by my side when I was at my lowest low.
It was friend of mine, who I can't see anymore.
They were by my side, like a miracle...
and then they disappeared like the passing seasons.
Someone like that.
Was it your ex-girlfriend?
No, no.
It definitely wasn't that kind of relationship.
And as for me...
I'm living every day to the fullest
thanks to all the luck and the miracles you brought into my life.
I miss you...
every day.
I want to see you...
Hae Sung.
