(Episode 26)
It has become an empty nest now.
An empty nest.
- Don't open your eyes. No peeking. - Si Hyun, come here.
Take it slow.
- My gosh, what is this? - What?
- What was that? - Hey, quiet down.
Come forward.
- Hey, wait. - Okay.
- In 1, 2, 3. - 1, 2, 3.
Look!
- What? - What's this?
Welcome to Se Joo's secondary palace.
I thought this used to be an art gallery.
- Yes. - It's like a club now.
There's a grand piano here.
I left school early for a month to decorate this place.
If you don't get kicked out from school, will this be yours?
Of course.
It'll be so awesome to sit here on a snowy day.
Let's bring in the biggest game machine in here.
- Good? - Good.
Come around. Let's make rules.
We don't need any rules. Just use it.
No, you two have no self-control.
No one else is allowed in here.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Gather here when a war breaks out. - Okay.
Or in case of an earthquake.
- Okay. - Okay.
Hold your 60th birthday parties here.
Okay. And you can't live here even when you get kicked out.
Why? It's perfect.
Soo Ji, to be honest,
my mom probably left me this place in case I get disowned.
Please be easy on me.
Don't get kicked out then.
Se Joo, you must defend this place, so contain your temper...
and stay home, okay?
- Okay. - I don't see any desks here.
No studying is allowed in here.
Exactly. What are you talking about?
I shouldn't stay here overnight during finals, right?
- In your dreams. - In your dreams.
(Voice Recordings)
This one.
Is her name Soo Ji?
You should teach her some manners.
I apologize.
That's not why I sent them away.
I wanted to give you an advice...
and a warning.
I can't let anyone who talks too much...
become a part of my family.
Unbelievable.
What did I do to make her say that I need to learn some manners?
And what's with Mom's submissive attitude?
She treated her like she's talkative for answering some questions for me.
My mom's the one who held that press conference for their sake.
What now? She talks too much?
- What? - Hey.
What should I do to make your grandma like me?
What do you mean?
We'll probably have a suffocating life in your house.
The least I can do is get on her good side.
Why does she like you so much?
Is it in your blood?
Soo Ji.
I'm not in the mood to discuss this with you.
I'm not asking because I want to either.
Do you know what she said to my mom...
after your grandma asked us to leave?
I recorded their conversation because I was curious,
and she wanted to teach me some manners first.
That's because she's a grandma.
You're...
her real grandson, so you're free to act like a baby.
But that's not my case.
So I changed my mind.
We failed to stop our parents from getting married...
by us faking or actually getting married.
And we're done being friends.
I need to find a way to survive and be treated like a person...
once I become a part of JK Group.
Don't put it like that. "Be treated like a person"?
Do you want to listen to what your grandma said?
Soo Ji, later.
My dad is sick, so I'm at the hospital.
Then you can listen to it when you have time.
(Soo Ji sent you a voice recording.)
Are you okay?
Sir, excuse me, sir.
- Are you okay? - I think he's unconscious.
Sir.
What's going on?
He suddenly fell unconscious.
He's unconscious.
- What happened? - He fell.
Sir.
Sir, please look at me.
Can you move?
Can you move your hands and head?
I think he hurt his leg too.
Don't worry about it, and wait here. A doctor will be here soon.
Can you move your hands and head?
I think you hurt your leg. You shouldn't move around.
I'm sorry, but can you wait for a second?
- Excuse me. - Coming through.
Please move.
Watch his head and legs.
- Yes, ma'am. - Yes.
Be careful.
- Put him on an IV immediately. - Yes.
- Coming through. - Excuse me.
My gosh.
Ms. Eun.
What brings you to the hospital?
We've met in Jeongeup, haven't we?
- What do you... - Why didn't you come back?
I don't understand what you're saying,
but have a cup of tea, then leave.
When I held onto you just now,
why were you so surprised?
Really? Was I really?
I got into a car accident two years ago in winter.
It happened in Jeongeup.
It was a hit-and-run,
and I just recently found out who the assailant was.
I see.
That must've been tough.
But I'm starting to think that the person may not be...
the actual assailant.
Because I was...
trying to save someone...
when I got into that accident.
The person you have reached is...
(Myung Mi Ri)
Excuse me.
I think I got into an accident.
An accident?
You didn't. You're fine. Don't worry about it.
Okay.
Are you hurt?
Is there a hospital nearby?
Can you call someone?
Gosh, I don't have a phone on me.
Give me a minute. I'll call 911 and get someone to help.
One second.
Please hold on.
I got into an accident as I ran to get help.
I'm sure you know very well because you're a doctor.
That most car accident victims...
do not remember the car that hit them.
Not even its color or shape.
That's what people say. It's because of the shock.
I also had forgotten about the car that hit me.
But I recently saw a car...
and thought it seemed oddly similar.
I saw Soo Ji's car when she drove to school,
and it seemed strangely familiar.
Just like...
how your giving first aid to that man seemed familiar.
Why didn't you come back?
It's you who hit me.
You said you were in a rush...
and that you'd return very soon.
You said you'd come back.
You told me to wait just a little.
Do you know how scared I was?
It was cold,
and I was in pain.
It was dark, and there were no cars passing by.
I was worried I wouldn't be able to wake up if I closed my eyes.
I couldn't fall asleep in case you couldn't find me.
Do you know how I endured each moment?
I trusted you...
when you said you'd come back.
I was scared,
but you said you'd come back.
No.
You're mistaken.
- I wasn't there. - You should have come.
You should have come back at all cost.
Because of what happened,
I couldn't even walk for a while.
I had to be treated, so I couldn't even go to school.
I had no choice.
I...
I was going to the same person.
She passed away, so I completely forgot.
When I went back later, you were gone.
No.
You're just making excuses.
Wait.
Was that person...
Si Hyun's mother?
You lied too then.
You said Si Hyun's mother hit me.
How could you do that?
Did you even imagine how guilty Si Hyun must've felt?
I was on my way to save her too.
She was hospitalized, but she ran away.
She had a bad heart, so she had to be monitored constantly.
She would have been in trouble if something had happened.
I said that to Si Hyun because...
I don't know if you would understand,
but I thought that was the best thing to tell him.
There was a reason I couldn't tell him...
why his mother went to Jeongeup.
We know about everything.
His mother...
died on her way to see my mom.
That's good then.
If it weren't for Young Won,
none of this would have happened.
No, President Myung.
Stop trying to defend yourself with this nonsense.
If I wasn't my mom's daughter,
would you have apologized to me?
So...
just admit to your faults.
We were both trying to save the same person,
and that happened.
What do you want from me? I can compensate you for it.
What would you like?
Just admit to your faults.
Think about it. Even if I...
go to the police now, I won't get punished too heavily.
I know.
You would be able to avoid the charges.
But if you apologize sincerely,
we might feel better.
Confess everything, and apologize sincerely.
Then Si Hyun will feel less guilty,
and I...
won't report you to the police.
(Yoon Joon Young)
Yes.
I'm almost there.
But I don't see her car yet.
She won't pick up either.
Are you sure she went to Jeongeup?
I looked everywhere she could be, but I couldn't find her.
I'm sure. She came here.
Why did you even say that?
I didn't know she would actually go there.
What's wrong?
Hello?
What is it, Mi Ri?
It's nothing.
I'll call you once I find her.
Are you all right?
I'm sorry. I didn't see you.
Hello? Hold on.
Can you move?
Can you move your hands and head?
Can you move?
Get up. Move slowly.
I think you hurt your leg.
You shouldn't move around.
Can you call the ambulance for me?
There's a patient over there.
A patient?
Yes.
There's a woman in a car.
I was on my way to get help.
It's her.
I'm sorry.
Can you wait for me a little bit?
I'll come back soon.
I'm sorry.
Ms. Park. Ms. Park!
Ms. Park.
Tae Hee?
What's wrong, Mom?
Soo Ji.
Soo Ji, I...
Why are you crying?
Is it because Mr. Kwon is ill? Is it serious?
It's Tae Hee.
Tae Hee just walked out, right?
Calm down, Mom.
It's okay.
Tae Hee.
Si Hyun.
I have something to tell you.
Can we meet...
where we saw each other...
earlier?
I'll be there.
Are you okay?
- She'll be fine. - Okay. Thank you.
(Choi Soo Ji)
The person you have reached is not available. Please leave...
(Eun Tae Hee)
(Si Hyun)
The person you have reached is not available. Please leave...
I'm not sure...
how I should start this off.
I found out who the driver...
of the hit-and-run is.
It wasn't your mom.
What do you mean?
Then who?
President Myung.
She's going to tell you everything soon.
Are you okay?
Me?
Are you all right?
I sat here wondering if I should tell you or not...
that it was her.
She accidently hit me as she was hurrying over...
to help your mom.
Are you okay?
This can be more shocking for you than me.
I don't care about that right now.
All I'm concerned about is if you're all right.
Let's set everything straight.
Let's report her for this and make her apologize.
I'll help you.
No.
I don't want to dig deeper into this.
Then will you just let it slide?
This tormented you for such a long time.
After all,
my mom started all this.
It would've been much better...
if I found out more about this a little quicker.
I do feel bad about that.
Then I could've made you feel...
less burdened than now.
None of this is your fault.
I know...
that it isn't.
But I'm still upset...
about the times that we've suffered.
There's nothing we can do about what our parents got into.
We can only make changes...
about the things that'll happen to us in the future.
You know what?
Even if it was your mom who hit me,
I was okay with that.
I really began to be okay with it.
You know,
you suddenly...
seem all grown-up.
I can't believe you're telling me that.
Odd, isn't it?
Goodbye.
Bye.
Tae Hee.
Can you give me one second? I'll go see Dad, then drop you off.
- I can go by myself. - It's late.
Please let me do that tonight.
Then take your time. I'll wait.
Okay.
Tae Hee.
You met my mom just now, didn't you?
Yes.
What did you say to her to make her like that?
Hey.
Tell me what you said.
Do you really want to know?
You won't be able to treat me like this after you hear it.
Why do you always bully those around you?
- My mom is crying because of you. - Exactly.
If you're curious, don't do this to me.
Go ask her yourself.
Soo Ji.
My gosh.
Si Hyun.
Soo Ji.
Stop it already.
She's having a difficult time. You can talk to me.
Si Hyun...
What more business do you have with her?
Let's go.
Si Hyun.
Soo Ji.
Please leave me alone.
And nothing good will come out of our talking right now.
Just go. I'm warning you.
And stop coming in between us.
You can't do this to me.
Let's go.
(Tempted)
Soo Ji...
can't take this.
What's wrong?
I wish I was gone from this world.
Let me ask you one last time.
Will you not go back to Soo Ji?
Are you and Soo Ji going to leave like this?
Was I the only one who wanted to hold us three together?
Recently, when I wake up in the morning,
the first thing that's on my mind is that you are right there...
not too far away from me.
