(Episode 45)
Tell me you don't want to live with me anymore, because...
I hid the truth about having a child before marrying you.
Doctor.
My daughter-in-law took some tests in the morning.
Yes, she is Sabina. Do you have the results?
No.
It's not her first birth so I'm not worried, but I'm still curious.
You already knew.
She already gave birth once, so you don't have to worry.
Oh, my goodness.
This can't be.
Mid Eum is...
Lee Sung Wook's child. Then it was her first husband...
This can't be.
Honey, I found some great restaurants in Croatia.
Would you like to take a look?
What's going on? Is something wrong?
I wasn't happy...
living in Korea.
I want to forget those days,
so I don't talk about it.
Is that so?
She went all the way to the US...
to change her name and identity...
and to hide her dirty past.
What?
You're going where?
I should at least feed the kids something.
Mr. Kim can take them to the theater,
but I can't just send them away.
Joon Ki.
This will be the first and last time.
You go home. I'll be back.
Then I'll go with you.
I don't think of Mid Eum as my child.
I gave him up 12 years ago when I left that house.
But...
if it's to repay his father,
I'll join in.
Let's go.
Who are you...
talking about?
I'm scared.
How could someone like that be our son's partner?
Choi Joon Ki, where are you...
Honey,
what is it that you found out about Sabina?
What are you doing? Did you know, as well?
Did you know she hid the fact she had a child...
and married into our family?
I hoped you wouldn't find out.
Choi Dae Sung!
Didn't I make it clear for you?
It may be over for us,
but we still need to play our part as parents!
How could you hide that from me when you knew about it?
I only just found out. And so did Joon Ki.
Then you should've told me right away!
How can you call yourself a father?
That's why I hid it!
I knew you would be outraged...
and go wild like this!
What? "Go wild"?
Then are parents supposed to let their child be...
even when they get into a marriage fraud?
Call them in right now.
No. No need for that.
I'm going to get Attorney Park...
to kick them out of this house immediately.
Honey!
We need to think carefully.
This has to do with our son's life.
Yes, his life.
That's why I'm acting like this!
I won't let him be with that outrageous woman!
We can't be blaming anyone right now!
We could even lose our son!
Don't you think Joon Ki would have thought it over?
He didn't tell you because he didn't want to lose her!
Do you think he would listen to whatever you have to say?
What am I supposed to do, then?
She has Joon Ki's life in her hands!
If you're still going to do as you please,
I don't care what happens!
So it wasn't an elk...
that Joon Ki hit that day?
No.
He hit a man.
What?
What did you say?
So... What happened to that man?
Did he...
Did he die?
We hid him.
(Kim Mal Soon, Busan Jangshin Pork Soup)
Is it your first time in Busan?
No, I grew up here.
How long has it been since you last came here?
Over 10 years, probably.
Are you here to visit your old house?
No. I just...
wanted to find something.
That's right.
The shipowner's daughter Mom gave birth to in Busan.
It's you.
After Mom got kicked out of the house,
she met Dad and had me.
I'm sure I'll remember something.
(Detective Cha Pil Seung)
We called you earlier.
One moment.
This is the footage from September 20.
It's this person, right?
Yes. Thank you.
Someone is purposely taking his picture.
Do you think they're in it together?
It could be.
Zoom into this man.
Okay.
Mid Eum said he saw the motorcycle that hit Eun Dong Joo, right?
He did.
He said he was wearing a helmet with red lines, like that one.
Do you think whoever has Lee Sung Wook...
also hit Eun Dong Joo?
Check the footage from outside the building for the same time.
Okay.
Wait.
Zoom in.
Let's put him up as wanted and catch him first.
Okay.
Gosh, this is so good.
I've never had anything like this.
Really?
Mid Eum, try the pasta.
Thank you, sir.
It's really expensive here, isn't it?
You didn't have to bring us here.
Don't worry about it and eat up.
I'll treat you anytime you want.
You don't have time for that.
Eat up, you two.
It's almost time for the movie.
We still have some time.
How are you doing with your studies, Mid Eum?
I'm trying my best.
Mid Eum is really good at art.
Really? Are you good at drawing?
No.
I just like doing papercutting art.
My daddy said that...
Mid Eum really takes after his mommy.
It's true.
He said my mom was good at papercutting art too.
Is that so?
But it's really weird.
I don't remember her face at all,
but I still take after her.
Excuse me for a moment.
One minute. You guys go ahead and eat.
Mid Eum, does that pretty lady...
really look like your mommy?
Yes. She also looks a lot like the drawing dad drew.
Are you having a hard time?
I was just feeling a bit sick.
I thought I would be fine about meeting him,
but I guess it does bother me.
All right. It's almost time for the movie anyway.
Let's send them.
I'm sorry I can't join you.
Mr. Kim will take you home when the movie ends.
Thank you.
See you.
Let's go, Sa Rang.
Okay, Mid Eum.
See you again, Mister.
I'll make sure not to call or visit him anymore.
And...
Here.
I made this for you two.
It's for your future baby.
Thank you.
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E45 'Golden Garden' "Nam Hee Learns Of Sabina's Past" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to act like this.
I really wanted to show you...
that the past I left behind didn't matter to me anymore.
That it meant nothing.
That you're the only one I care about.
I wanted to show you that.
No. Mid Eum means nothing to me.
I'm sure of it.
It has to be.
I'm sorry, Joon Ki.
This won't happen again.
It's all right.
I understand.
How could that child mean nothing to you?
If it were true,
then I would have been even more disappointed.
Let's treat him well.
Even if...
we both don't deserve to be.
One moment.
(Father)
Hello?
Why weren't you picking up?
You're in big trouble.
What do you mean? Did something go wrong?
It's serious.
Your mother found out about Sabina's past.
She did?
How did she find out?
(Busan Jangshin Pork Soup)
Excuse me.
Yes?
Why is she here so early?
- Yes? - Hello, ma'am.
Do you remember me?
Oh, yes.
You're that young lady!
What brings you here? Take a seat.
I wanted to ask you a few questions.
What is it?
It's about that shipowner you were talking about.
I was hoping to visit the place.
Where is it?
Why would you want to go there?
You may not remember,
but the family might recognize me...
if I am Sabina.
That's nonsense!
They hated her so much!
Don't think about going there.
And besides, their family went down...
and lost everything!
They all went separate ways.
How?
They did terrible things to other people,
so, of course, they got punished!
I see.
Why?
Are you upset?
Were you hoping they were your family?
Do you know anything else about Shin Nan Sook?
I actually went to Seoul...
and asked around here and there.
And someone told me that...
Nan Sook got kicked out of the family...
and went to work...
under a rich family in Seoul.
And where is that?
How should I know?
I only heard the rumors.
Could you please find out a bit more?
I really need to know where that is.
Then will you at least pay me a little something?
Of course.
I'll give you my number so please find out more.
Can you also take a look at this?
It was taken 28 years ago. Do you recognize it?
Yes, I do!
This is that place.
The Golden Garden!
Yes, that's right.
Does this garden still exist?
Why isn't she picking up?
I need to check if this is the guy who hit her.
(Eun Dong Joo)
When did she send this?
I can't take it anymore.
I'm going to find out the truth.
Did she really go there?
I don't like the sound of this.
They're all there.
At that place 28 years ago.
Doctor Cha, Pil Seung,
me, Ki Young, Ki Young's dad,
Dong Joo, and Dong Joo's mom.
They are.
The girl responsible for the hit-and-run,
my baby, who died because of it,
you, who witnessed it,
and their kids, Pil Seung and Dong Joo.
They're all in this picture.
The weird thing is,
we all went our separate ways after that accident...
and got back together after 28 years.
As if it were Doctor Cha who gathered us together.
Why in the world...
did he leave this behind?
Why?
What is it that he wants to tell me?
I'm sure there is a reason.
The case could have been forgotten forever,
but he even brought Dong Joo and Pil Seung together.
So what does that mean?
What is it, you heartless boy?
Did you want to go inside?
Yes, sir.
What time do you close?
We still have two hours,
so you'd better hurry.
It's so dark, already.
Sir, do you still hold the Fireflies Festival here?
The Fireflies Festival?
We stopped doing that a long time ago.
We stopped after an accident that happened 28 years ago.
How do you know about that?
I was here at that time.
Really?
If you look around, it will probably bring back memories.
- Go on inside. - Thank you.
Welcome to the Golden Garden, all members...
of the MS Patients Organization!
Welcome!
Aren't the fireflies so beautiful today?
- Yes! - Yes!
They say fireflies are the light of life and the future.
I hope you can shake off all your pain...
and grasp for hope!
Let's go into the forest!
Hope awaits you!
Here we go!
(Golden Garden Fireflies Festival)
Why is it so hard to reach her?
Pil Seung, look at the sky.
It's so pretty.
Daddy, how long do fireflies live?
Well...
They go up to the sky after living for only two weeks.
They die that soon?
I feel so bad for them.
You have such a warm heart, Pil Seung.
You'll grow up to be a great person.
Go and have fun with your friends.
Okay!
Here.
Mommy?
Mommy, where are you?
Mommy?
Mommy, where are you?
Mommy?
Are you all right?
Here. Take a look.
It's pretty.
Do you know why fireflies glow?
It's because they're lonely.
No one will notice them if they stay still,
so they shine brightly, saying, "I'm over here,"
to call their friends over.
I wish I could shine like a firefly.
So I can have many friends.
- Let's go, let's go - Let's go, let's go
- Let's go to the forest - Let's go to the forest
- To pick pieces of the moon - To pick pieces of the moon
- Let's go to the forest - Let's go to the forest
By the way, what's your name?
Me?
My name?
My name is...
Eun Dong Joo.
That's my name.
"Eun Dong Joo"?
What a pretty name.
"Eun Dong Joo".
What a...
pretty name.
That's right.
You're Eun Dong Joo.
I'm sure of it.
We met back then.
At the Golden Garden.
You're not Sabina.
You're Eun Dong Joo. Eun Dong Joo.
(Episode 46 will air shortly.)
Gosh, that's nice.
I instantly feel rejuvenated.
Are you not going home tonight too?
I told you I'm not.
This is better than the bunks at the precinct...
and even my own bed. Plus, it massages you.
Ki Young, you'll get sick at this rate.
Can you please go home?
Mi Joo, I need to ask you something.
What happened that night?
That night?
Tell me the truth.
I blacked out from the alcohol, so I don't remember.
Mi Joo, are you...
If getting pregnant were that easy, I'd have a truckload of kids.
Don't you worry. Where's your faith in me?
We only held hands.
Are you sure?
Finally, my appetite is back on track.
Is that your dinner?
How did you know to come here?
I asked her to come.
Please don't do unnecessary things.
You should go.
If you're staying here because of me,
I'll leave instead.
Don't put yourself through this and go home.
I never said...
I didn't want to see you.
Don't leave.
Then will you come home?
Mi Joo, could you clean up here?
I can't let her go home alone in the dark.
Come on. Why aren't you coming?
You should go. I think he's come around.
Thank you.
Ki Young, wait up.
Hold on.
Is he saying that it's fine for me to walk home alone at night?
I'm really pretty, you know.
You know what? I can't wait any longer.
I should talk to your mom.
Either I'll beg or...
No, you stay here. I'll talk to her.
No, that'll only irritate her more.
She'll think that I'm a coward who's hiding behind your back.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure she understands.
Ms. Jin asked for you.
All right.
I meant, Ms. Sabina.
Mom...
What's Sabina's mother doing here?
I asked her to come over.
You two should sit too.
Are you aware...
of why I asked you here?
I'm not sure.
I taught my daughter the best I could.
Did she perhaps make a mistake?
A mistake?
Is that what you people call it?
Your dirty past that is too sickening to even talk about?
A sickening and dirty past?
What exactly do you mean?
You've got to be kidding me.
You two were conniving and sly enough...
to fool my family.
Don't you start playing dumb now.
Ms. Jin.
Mom, please.
Mom, let's hear them out before you get angry at them.
No, Joon Ki.
This is all my fault.
Mother,
I'm sorry.
I have nothing else to say.
Ms. Jin.
Yes, I understand.
I'm sorry.
I don't know what I can say to ease your anger,
but this much is certain.
My daughter hid her past...
because she loves your son.
Are you kidding me?
How dare you use love as an excuse?
If your daughter truly loved him,
she wouldn't have tried to scam him like this.
Have you ever considered how heartbroken he'd be...
once he found out the truth?
All she wanted was a luxurious life...
and that's what led us up to this point. Am I wrong?
Honey,
please calm down.
Getting angry won't solve anything.
It's all right.
She has every right to be angry.
However,
I also am upset...
about how you're making my daughter look like a gold-digger.
If I'm being honest,
many men were already head over heels for her.
She could've married into any rich family.
Then you should've picked one of them...
instead of creating a mess for my family?
It's like I said.
My daughter didn't want anyone else but your son.
She loved him too much.
That's nice to hear.
If she loves him that much,
she could also leave him for his sake.
Sabina... No, wait.
Should I call you Mid Eum's mom instead?
I'd like an annulment at this stage,
and I know you'll agree since you love him.
You're being cruel.
She's my wife...
and this marriage is between us.
I know you're disappointed in us,
but ending our marriage is our decision to make.
Joon Ki's right.
He's made peace with her past, so you're overstepping your boundaries.
Get a grip on yourselves!
I don't know how she coaxed you both,
but I don't believe a word that she says.
I know it all too well.
Also, how can we be a family when I don't trust her?
Taking back this marriage is the right thing to do.
Mother,
I really have nothing to say.
But if you forgive me this one time,
I'll make it up to you.
Please forgive me...
and give me another chance.
I'm sorry.
Since your mother's here, we should get this over with.
Pack up your things and leave by the end of the night.
Mother, please.
It's a mistake I made when I was young and immature.
I severed all ties so that it never would haunt me.
So please...
It seems like you're heavily mistaken.
I'm appalled by your dirty past,
but what scares me...
is the fact that you deceived us with a smile on your face.
Also, I don't care how immature you were.
Abandoning your own child isn't something to be proud of.
Just leave already...
and stop clinging on to us like a leech.
Mom, please calm down.
Right. Let's all sit down...
and talk this out.
Please forgive me, Mother.
Enough.
She's right.
It's too late to promise you'll do better.
What can you do when she doesn't trust you anymore?
I'll take her with me just like you want.
Let me ask you one thing though.
No matter what happens,
are you sure you won't regret this?
Are you threatening me...
with that car accident?
Of course not.
That accident...
Well, my daughter made up her mind to cover for Joon Ki,
and she'll keep her word.
Then what exactly are you talking about?
What's this that she'll regret?
Well...
Just forget about it.
There's no need to reveal it when they're marriage is over.
- Let's go. - Stop it. I'm not going!
Mother!
How stupid are you?
I didn't raise you the way I did just so that...
you could be humiliated like this.
You made one mistake.
One that was over a decade ago.
But still, this family is cruelly kicking you out.
There's no need for you to stay.
Especially when...
you're carrying a baby.
Mom...
What do you mean?
She's carrying a baby?
Are you saying she's pregnant?
I heard that she was checked by a doctor.
Did the results come out?
I was worried, so I called the doctor myself.
Her blood test showed...
that she is most certainly three weeks pregnant.
Honey, this changes everything.
No,
there's no need to change your word.
Don't worry.
We won't try to bargain with an unborn baby.
We will do right by this child ourselves,
so stay out of it.
Right, sure.
So be it.
[Kocowa Ver] MBC E46 'Golden Garden' "Nam Hee's Ultimatum" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
How can we be cursed like this?
The timing of this pregnancy...
Please stop crying.
It's normal for my mom to be angry right now.
I'm sure that she'll forgive us and trust us again though.
Let's be a little more patient.
I'm upset, that's all.
What should be celebrated turned out to be...
It's all right.
Everything will be all right.
I never realized this,
but thinking of the poor choices I've made in my life...
is beginning to haunt me.
Those that adore...
and believe in me...
I'm terrified of breaking their hearts.
You can make up for that though.
I will.
I don't deserve to be a mother again,
but I will do so for this baby who we have been blessed with.
I will live decently from now on.
It's fascinating.
It truly is.
How on earth did we cross paths 28 years ago?
Have you heard of two people...
randomly meeting twice in their lives?
That's fascinating enough,
but we also remembered our previous encounter.
You're now...
the one person who can verify that I am the real Eun Dong Joo.
You're right.
Once I go back to Seoul, I'll take Shin Nan Sook on directly.
Just you wait and see. I'll find out the truth.
Just don't tell your grandmother yet.
We don't want to get her hopes up...
and shatter her world by telling her...
that Nan Sook is my birth mother.
All right.
If you've now said everything,
look here.
Just look at that sky.
It reminds me of that night.
The night where the sky was lit up with fireflies.
You said it was fascinating...
that we were able to meet twice...
and that we even remembered it.
That's right.
It truly is unbelievable.
You and me...
It must be fate.
Do you know about the red thread?
Those who are destined for each other...
are born with...
a red thread that connects them together.
That's why they're able to meet each other someday.
It's a story my grandmother used to tell me,
and it gave me goosebumps earlier.
That's us, right?
Detective Cha.
The mood seems just about right...
to tell you this.
Gosh, I'm really bad at these things,
but I can't hold it in anymore.
Now that we know how a red thread connects us,
I have to tell you this.
Dong Joo.
Look at me.
Dong Joo.
I...
Catch me if you can!
Really? This again?
Stay right there.
- Stay there. - Why?
- Tell me why. - My gosh.
Stop there.
There's a snake!
Unbelievable.
I'd like to tease you for the rest of my life.
Let's...
get married.
Detective Cha...
I love you,
Dong Joo.
What's this?
(Transfer of Shares)
Ms. Kang, you should take this medicine.
Gosh.
Did you brew this because you were worried...
that this old hag would die of anger?
I can't die because I still have unfinished business?
That's good to hear.
Anyway, what's that?
Don't you remember this?
Thirty years ago,
when Chairwoman Jin established the MS Patients Organization,
she donated her shares.
That's right. She donated 30 percent of it to the foundation.
Well, Pil Seung's father...
bought 10 percent of her donated shares...
and left it for Pil Seung. This is the certificate.
Here.
Yes, I know.
The MS patients at the time each bought some of the shares...
and left it for their children.
It was a way to keep the organization running forever.
This is the photo they took that day.
Why are you looking through these today?
I was sick in bed all day thinking of the wench...
that killed my son,
but then I got thinking.
I thought about what you said...
and why Pil Seung's dad gathered all the people of the Golden Garden.
He must've wanted to tell them something.
I'm guessing that this was it.
- Do you think... - You know,
I must meet with Chairwoman Jin.
I'll finish what Pil Seung's dad started.
- Pil Seung's grandmother? - Yes.
She has something to tell you and wants to come by at lunch.
I wonder what it's about.
She's an important guest so book a restaurant for us.
Yes, ma'am.
Mom, could we talk?
I'll have your car ready.
Aren't you sick and tired of saying the same thing?
You can ask for my forgiveness, but my answer will be the same.
If you can't possibly live without her,
I won't stop you.
- Mom... - I'm renovating the apartment,
so move out by the end of the month.
I can't possibly live while she's in this house.
Mother, I'll do better.
Please give me one more chance.
I already told you...
how I'm sick of this.
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
My stomach hurts.
What?
Can you walk?
Let's get you to a doctor.
Nam Hee,
are you satisfied now?
I warned you...
that you'll only lose your son if you stay angry.
She's already walking on eggshells around you,
so, of course, this will hurt the baby.
What will you do if something bad happens to our grandchild?
Then that's in the cards for us.
They're being told to split up.
My gosh.
She has an answer for everything, doesn't she?
You're here.
Are you all right?
If something happens to my daughter,
I will never forgive you.
Has your stomach gotten better?
Doctor,
how's the baby?
Fortunately, everything's good.
I'm sure you know that the first few months are critical.
If the mother is under too much stress...
and can't eat or sleep well,
she might miscarry.
You may leave once the IV bag is empty.
Thank you.
I can't take it anymore.
How can you treat her this way when she's pregnant with your child?
I'm ashamed, Mother.
What good does that do when her life is at stake.
If you won't protect her,
then I will.
Mom.
Ms. Jin, Ms. Kang is here.
- I'm so glad you're here. - There, there.
It's been too long, hasn't it?
I'm sorry.
Don't say that.
Please have a seat.
I honestly didn't expect this at all,
so what brings you by?
It's actually because of this.
(Transfer of Shares)
Isn't this...
It's the certificate that states the transfer of shares you made...
to the MS Patients Organization 30 years ago.
Pil Seung's dad bought a fair share of it...
and left if for Pil Seung.
You know why, right?
Of course.
He hoped for the foundation...
to be passed down to our children.
Ever since that day,
I kept my distance from it even more so than you did.
Anyway, we should get it back on its feet.
Right.
It's all my fault, you know. I should've taken care of it sooner.
I'm terribly sorry.
So...
how did you suddenly come up with this idea?
You see, I recently found the driver...
who crashed into my son's car and fled the scene.
What?
My gosh, who is it?
Please tell me.
I should meet this person.
Secretary Eun, you know who it is, right?
Lead the way. I must meet this person.
Goodness, just calm down.
Meeting the driver will only make you angrier.
She doesn't feel guilty and has no shame.
What good would meeting her do?
Besides, it's not why I came to see you today.
No, I must know who it is too.
Who is it?
Calm down already.
The statute of limitations has passed on this case anyway.
We can't even bring the culprit to justice.
She's right, ma'am.
If you can't forgive, just forget.
Forget? How can I let this slide?
Hold on.
It seems like you know who it is. So why won't you tell me?
Is it...
someone I know?
You once said it was someone close to me.
Who is it? Tell me who it is!
I'm afraid she's with a guest.
Move!
Eun Dong Joo.
Eun Dong Joo,
I'm sure I warned you...
but you still ran your mouth!
(Golden Garden)
