[Episode 9]
You probably didn't hear that her mother is sick, either.
Her condition suddenly worsened
so she was transferred to a big hospital in Seoul.
Hello?
I don't know if you called me because you have something to say...
or if you called me by accident.
But either way, let's talk later.
I'm not in the right state of mind to talk to you right now.
My mom...
is really sick.
If I lose my mom, too...
I really won't be able to handle it.
I can't even imagine...
not having my mom around.
What do I do?
Oh, I'm so scared that I feel like I'm going to die.
Ms. Seo Yoo Ri.
Seo Yoo Ri.
You're having a hard time, aren't you?
Lean on me.
I'm sorry...
that I couldn't keep my promise.
Have some tea.
Thank you.
When is she having her surgery?
It's scheduled for early next week.
Both of my parents passed away.
Because I made a huge mistake.
My father ended his own life...
and a few years later...
my mother passed away, too.
I did that to my parents.
I'm a sinner.
You also must have had a very difficult time.
There are...
many other things that are happening in the world right now
that you couldn't even imagine.
Nothing is set in stone.
The fact is, your mother...
is by your side right now, Ms Seo Yoo Ri.
Think only about that.
Don't be like that.
Smile when you want to smile...
and get angry when you want to get angry...
and live your life like other people do.
I'll do that from now on.
[Seoul Yeonhee Hospital]
[Patient Kim Jung Seon]
Mom.
You really have to get it together when you're having your surgery, okay?
Let's both be alive and well when we see each other again, okay?
Geez, you...
Don't be worried, Mom.
Just imagine that you're taking a long nap.
Okay?
All right.
I'm not worried.
But I hope that the doctor does a good job.
Yeah, smile just like that. Don't cry.
Okay?
- Yeah. - Okay, Mom.
We'll escort you to the operating room now.
[Patient Kim: Surgery in Progress]
[Patient Kim: Surgery Complete]
[Seoul Yeonhee Hospital]
[The Guy Who Broke the Vending Machine]
Yes?
The surgery went well!
It went without a hitch, and it didn't spread anywhere else!
Congratulations.
Are you outside?
Or is it noisy on my end?
Just a moment. Yeah?
Take good care of your mom
and call me if anything happens.
Okay. Thanks for staying here with us so late.
Hello?
You'll catch a cold.
Hurry and head home.
All right.
Excuse me!
Huh?
They're not here.
Hey, you guys!
Meow!
Meow? Meow!
[Seoul Yeonhee Hospital]
Yes?
I'm here, Mother!
Oh, you're here!
Ta-da!
Oh, goodness!
This is my gift to you.
Wow, these are so pretty.
And they smell so nice, too.
They're pretty, right?
Oh yeah.
Mother.
This is...
a mystery novel.
And it's really good.
Thanks.
Also, if you're not that into reading books...
try doing this instead.
And if you don't end up liking this, either...
Here, I've brought all these.
There was no need for you to bring so many things for me!
Oh yeah.
Keep this a secret from Yoo Ri, please.
You have to do this quietly, when you're all by yourself.
If she finds out I did this, she'll get mad, saying I wasted too much money
and spam me with text messages and calls!
It'll be crazy, seriously!
You knew, and yet you bought so many things?
Oh.
What the... when did you get here?
Hey, it's not like she's going to be hospitalized for a couple of months.
Mother.
Since Yoo Ri is here, shall we play a round of Go-Stop?
That's the woman he's going to marry. 100 percent.
He practically has hearts shooting out of his eyes!
She looks so plain, though.
Oh, she's so lucky.
I thought that someone like a hospital director's son
would have an arranged marriage, though.
I guess not.
What did you say Mr. Kim Jin Woo's job was, again?
I think they said that he's a schoolteacher.
A schoolteacher?
Oh my gosh!
Big Sis!
Oh... Teach.
Hey.
Hey there, Student Soo Jung.
Don't be late.
Don't be tardy.
Yes, Teach.
All right, then.
I'll call you after work. I have to go.
Bye.
Wow, this is seriously unbelievable.
Don't be surprised, okay?
But, the thing is, Teach is...
Do you like Cinderella or Wonder Woman better, Big Sis?
Wonder Woman.
Really?
Oh man, then I guess I shouldn't tell you now.
What's this about?
I'll tell you later, Mom.
Seo Yoo Ri says she prefers Wonder Woman.
So I can't tell her yet. It's too soon.
Just be patient, even if you're super curious!
Sorry for being late.
It's okay. I've organized all of the beverages and such.
You're here, Joon Young?
Hello!
Oh yeah.
The lady working at the snack shop won't be working today.
Really?
What do I do?
The boss will probably come today too, right?
Shall I take Joon Young and go outside for a bit, if he does come?
Don't you have to go to cram school?
I just got a call that classes are canceled.
Stop looking for someone you're close to
and just look for someone you can get close to.
Did the boss put that there?
Yes.
He brought it here, saying he needs to make money for Soon Dol's food.
He sure is peculiar.
He's a total miser! It's not even a claw machine!
I wonder where he even found something like this.
Oh, we have to toss the goods that are past their expiration dates.
Can you do that, please?
Sure, all right.
Excuse me.
Have this.
Pardon?
You know Tree Cafe, right?
We're experimenting with new beverages.
Oh, I see.
Ms. Hyun Joo!
You're pretty!
Were you successful in providing some courage?
How much courage does someone need to confess their feelings?
Well, that depends.
For a kiss, definitely enough for the day of.
If you want to sleep with them, enough to last an entire week.
Anything more than that...
Hey, that means that you two don't even share a bond. Forget about it.
No, it's not like that--
Forget it.
Well...
I'm in a good mood, so shall I spoil myself a bit?
Ring of superpower!
I choose you.
Whoa!
What are you doing?
Goodness, you surprised me.
I spoiled myself a bit since I'm in a good mood.
I see.
Give it a shot.
There's even a transforming robot in there!
No thanks, I'm good.
Oh, you're saying that you're too mature for this, right?
More like, this kind of thing isn't exactly what I'm into.
What are you into then?
Wow!
Whoa.
Shouldn't you be a pro, with this level of skill?
You seem to be better than some pros!
Where did you learn how to do this?
My father...
liked baseball.
Oh.
I learned from him with my brother, when we were young.
Do you want to give it a try?
Yes!
You're not going to teach me?
I want to do it properly, too!
Well...
first...
stand with your feet shoulder width apart.
Like this.
Focus all of your weight on your knees.
And...
look...
toward the ball.
All done?
So, all I have to do now is hit it?
What was that?
A strike, what else?
Why? I did everything you told me to!
You need to perfect your timing.
You do it for me!
That's something that you have to do on your own, though.
Come on!
Now!
Why are you looking at me? You have to look at the ball.
I'll do it properly.
Are you sure that this isn't because you're a bad teacher?
You learned so well from your father!
I want to hit it really hard, and send it flying way over there!
Can't I do that?
You want to do that?
Yes!
Here, relax your arms a bit.
And look toward the ball.
Wow.
Wow... wow, that felt great.
By the way...
didn't you come to the hospital last night?
I did.
Right? You did, right?
Why? Did someone you know get hurt?
I came by because I was worried.
Your mother had her surgery.
Oh.
Where's Mister Boss Dude going?
You should head inside.
All right.
Goodbye.
I totally caught you in the act!
Geez.
Oh my, lookee here.
Goodness.
So your hands are still intact, I see.
What's the use in having hands if you can't even grab hers?
It's not like that.
"It's not like that." Bleh.
Hey, if God gave you hands, you should learn how to use them!
Do I really need to teach you such basic things?
He totally likes her.
Ugh, that mortal enemy of mine.
She really gave it her all to make a mess, to give me a hard time.
Goodness.
Fine!
Wow, looks like she even ate some damned chicken, too.
Was that right?
Thanks, Oh Soo.
When I saw you smiling and walking with that woman...
this spot, right here, got all nice and warm.
You have to become happy, Brother.
You have every right to be.
Big Bro.
Give me your hand.
You'll feel more confident if you keep this on you.
Something with a lot of heat, flexibility, and softness, too.
The greatest work of 2018!
Hey, come on, just watch it! It'll be really educational for you!
Get that out of my face!
Give me another one of the coffees that you gave me before.
To go.
Sure.
Here you go.
Mister!
- You're here, Joon Young! - Yes.
One more, please!
Here, you can have this.
Thanks.
What do I do?
I feel so bad for my kid.
Sorry for showing this part of myself to you.
I'm quitting my part-time job at the convenience store.
I got a full-time job.
Oh... really?
That's great.
I guess I won't be seeing you around anymore, though.
Um...
I... I like you...
Ms. Hyun Joo.
Date a woman who would suit you better.
I'm sure you'll find someone in no time, at your new workplace.
Are you free on Sunday?
Huh?
Give me a call if you like jumping on trampolines!
Joon Young!
You know my mom's number, right?
Of course!
I'll be waiting!
Let's go now, Mom.
Okay.
Ms. Seo Yoo Ri?
That's you, right?
Yes.
Who are you?
I'm...
Who the hell are you?
I said, who are you?
It's nothing.
Why are you hanging around here?
By the way...
how did you know my name?
Are you okay?
Yes.
Maybe he was the person who prank called me not too long ago.
He even knows your number?
I'll send you the taxi's license plate. Look into it.
All right.
By the way...
where are you going?
Oh, to go see my mom.
Come with me. I'll give you a ride.
It's okay. The bus will take me straight there.
Stop worrying other people!
Just do as I say!
Don't worry about it too much.
There are CCTV cameras near our building, and on the street.
I'm sure I'll be able to catch him soon.
I'm a cop!
Oh yeah.
How did you know to come over?
If you see that man again...
don't try to handle him alone, call me.
Got it?
What took you so long?
Why, you!
Did Jin Woo come by?
Yeah.
He already left, Wonder Woman.
Yeah, keep testing my temper like that.
I came after I cleaned up your mess, you punk.
Why did you clean it up? I'm just going to make a mess again.
Whatever. Anyway, text Teach.
He was waiting for you for a really long time.
[A stranger with a peculiar aura came to the village.]
[Three people died within the four days that he stayed in the village.]
She's been praying for a very long time.
Can you say something to your mother for us?
This is what that man looked like.
Wow, you did a great job drawing it!
My daughter attends an art school.
Oh.
No wonder.
But still, what a relief.
Something terrible almost happened, but the shamaness saved you.
He had a very vulgar aura.
Now, another woman...
will get hurt in my Bo Yeon's stead.
Um...
can you tell us exactly how far you chased him?
This is where we currently are, Shamaness.
I have a terrible sense of direction
and my vision isn't all that great, either.
Oh.
The north.
The north!
That's where that bastard is.
I'm sure of that!
What are you doing?
Which way is north?
Is it that way?
Excuse me.
There's something that I didn't tell you.
He told me not to say anything, but
before my mom got there
another man rescued me.
Really? Who was he?
I've definitely seen him before, but I don't know where.
Could you draw that person's face for us, too?
I think we'll be able to get more information about the culprit.
I think I can.
Ah, I see. Thank you.
Here you are. You can reach us here.
All right.
- Thank you. - Yes, thank you.
Did you look into the taxi?
What kind of hairstyle does Mr. Oh Soo like?
Don't be offended when I say this, but...
Right now, not even a single part of you is having any impact on Oh Soo.
So, why not take a much more aggressive approach?
What about the female monk aesthetic?
I think that'll definitely have an impact on him.
No thanks.
Just tell me what kind of hairstyle Mr. Oh Soo likes.
Yes, goodbye.
A bun.
Please style my hair into an elegant bun.
- Right away. - A bun?
A bun?
Hey, did you do what I told you to do, Officer Shin?
Oh, I completely forgot.
Sheesh.
Over there.
Um, what brings you here?
Um...
my name is Kim Sung Tae.
10 years ago...
your father, Officer Seo...
saved me.
You show up after all these years, and want me to forgive you?
My dad died trying to save you!
If you'd taken my dad to the hospital instead of running away
he would've survived!
You killed him.
You did it!
I was so scared!
They threatened me...
They said they'd really mess me up if I reported the incident.
Please forgive me.
Don't even dream of it.
I'll never forgive you.
Here.
On that day, your father...
dropped this.
I am truly sorry...
that I couldn't return this to you sooner.
This is so like Dad.
I'm disappointed in you, Dad.
I definitely remember telling you that I wanted an MP3 player back then.
What is this?
I'm not in kindergarten.
But still...
since you gave this to me, Dad...
I'll try it on, at the very least.
Thanks.
Thanks, Dad.
[Seoul Yeonhee Hospital]
Um... Mom.
Yeah?
Never mind.
Are you two in cahoots with each other?
Soo Jung was being like that all morning, too.
Later.
I'll tell you later, when your body has recovered.
Did something bad happen?
No.
Well... you should be going home now.
Yeah. I should head home.
Yoo Ri!
Hey, Jin Woo.
Why didn't you return my calls or texts?
Sorry.
I left my bag.
Let's go.
Did you... leave your bag at home?
No, at the precinct.
Well, then let's eat first, then go and get it.
No, it's fine. I'm working tomorrow, anyway.
Oh.
It's frustrating to not be able to reach you.
Ugh, I'm feeling lazy.
I'll just get it tomorrow.
I'll...
just take care of getting home by myself today.
All right.
You do that.
[Calling: Seo Yoo Ri]
Geez, that klutz!
[The Guy Who Broke the Vending Machine]
Hello?
Who is this?
I'm Yoo Ri's co-worker.
Where is Ms. Seo Yoo Ri?
I don't know, either.
She was so distracted that she left her bag at the precinct.
Did something bad happen to Ms. Seo Yoo Ri?
I think so.
But, who are you?
Where are you right now?
I'll come to you.
Um, sure.
I'm in front of Ms. Yoo Ri's building.
All right.
Geez, he should have called sooner.
Come inside.
Where did you go? You left your bag behind.
About the man from yesterday...
He was the man my dad had saved.
We couldn't find him, no matter how hard we looked.
But now, 10 years later...
he came to beg for forgiveness.
He said that he didn't want to be a shameful father
to his daughter, who will be born soon.
And so, he wanted me to forgive him.
How could someone be that audacious?
And so...
I told him that I'd forgive him if he died right before my eyes.
I'm a really bad person, aren't I?
No.
Good job.
If I were you, Ms. Seo Yoo Ri
I definitely wouldn't have been able to forgive him.
He only cares about getting rid of his guilt.
How selfish.
But I'm selfish, too.
I'm sorry.
I'm always being such a downer.
And I only ever come looking for you when I need you.
I'm always here to listen, whether it's depressing or not.
And it's okay if you only come looking for me when you need me.
It's okay for you to do all of that, Ms. Seo Yoo Ri.
And, in exchange...
I...
will like you...
Ms. Seo Yoo Ri.

Damn it!
Why are the two of them together?
Ugh.
This makes me feel like I'm cheating on someone.
