(Episode 16)
Here are 50,000 dollars.
There are 5 pieces of 10,000-dollar checks.
Wae Sang.
Goodness, look at you.
You look so handsome when you're not home.
I look handsome at home too.
You're right.
You're handsome inside and out.
You're my son.
Come home and live with us.
Poong Sang is furious. I can't do that.
Should I just barge in?
Yes, do that, Mom. I'll persuade him.
He listens to everything I ask.
Anyway,
do you have any money?
Money?
I'm sure you made some money to this day.
I don't make much yet.
And Boon Sil is putting it in my savings account.
I feel so bad for you.
You work so hard, but someone else benefits.
You should have become...
a famous baseball player by now.
You could be getting a million-dollar salary,
living in a great house with a fancy car,
and girls would line up to date you.
I can't even sleep whenever I think of that.
It's all my fault.
I got into a fight and got hurt.
Didn't you know?
If you received rehabilitation,
you could have made it to a professional team.
But Poong Sang...
What did he do?
He took your settlement money.
He took the settlement money?
Yes.
And he didn't even get much.
I don't know why he was in a rush,
but when they brought a few pennies,
he stamped an agreement with them.
That's why you couldn't be rehabilitated.
That's when your life got ruined.
Don't tell him that I said this.
He'll get furious again.
I shouldn't have told you that. Forget about it.
Joong Yi.
Hey, Lee Joong Yi.
Don't be like that.
Talk to me, will you?
Joong Yi, are you angry?
I'm so glad to see you after so long.
Can we go somewhere and talk?
Joong Yi.
We ordered your favorite dish, tteokbokki.
What else do you want? Some fish cake soup?
We'll take fish cake soup too.
Do you want some dumplings too?
Cut to the chase first.
I just missed you.
I wanted to say that I love you.
You're all talk.
You're just like any other guys.
I'm not even going to get married.
I'm scared I will end up with someone like you.
Mom doesn't look happy at all.
Don't you pity her?
She suffered for 18 years,
bringing up her siblings-in-law.
Think about why she takes medicine.
Goodness, kid.
You sound just like your mother.
Don't touch me. You're gross.
I washed my hands.
I won't fight with Mom anymore.
I promise.
Joong Yi.
I don't know...
how long I will live,
but trust me.
I love both Mom and you.
You don't trust me.
What was that at the police station?
Those old ladies...
trusted their granddaughters.
But you said you brought me up wrong.
That's because...
I'm disappointed.
I'll live with Mom.
You can live happily with your siblings.
Joong Yi.
How much is it?
- This one. - Oh, the pink one.
All right. What about you?
- This one. - This one?
The yellow shark? Here you are.
All right. Let's go home.
Let's go eat something delicious.
Goodness, come on.
All right.
Ae Sim, come on.
Jin Sang, this is just your fate.
Ae Sim has been pestering me so much.
Don't be so hard on Chil Bok.
I pestered him.
I said I'll call you when I make some money.
I came because I missed you.
Don't you need money?
I don't. Go.
Now that I've seen you and heard you,
I'll go.
Hey.
Let's go eat.
Really?
Don't worry about me, and eat.
You're hopeless too.
Don't look at me, and eat.
It looks like you lost a bit of...
Why do you like me and make your life hard?
Forget about me,
and go find a good guy for yourself.
I did find a good guy.
There's no stopping you.
Soju.
We'll take a bottle of soju.
- Beer glasses. - And beer glasses.
Ae Sim.
Do not get attached to me.
Get a hold of yourself and live your life.
You know,
I don't have any reasons to live in this world.
No one would care if I went...
and died somewhere.
There is no one who would cry for me.
I'm here.
Someone said...
that I am...
less than a broken slipper.
Who would say that to you?
That jerk.
I should rip out his mouth.
My brother did.
Do you have to go home tonight?
What?
Poong Sang is the one who ruined your life.
He stole your settlement money,
so you couldn't join a professional team.
Poong Sang is the reason...
why your life is in a mess.
You didn't know, did you?
I don't know where to begin.
Just forget about it.
Think of me as crazy and ignore it.
50,000 dollars.
I really thought I was going to die.
I couldn't sleep or eat...
thinking that you must be disappointed in me.
I thought I would never see you again.
Let me be indebted to you this once.
I'll pay you back in three months.
I know I don't deserve your trust.
I have an emergency.
Go home.
I'll go there later.
Let's never see each other again.
That's your payment for your time spent on me.
Wait.
So...
You're not just lending me money,
but you're paying me?
You only had your eyes on my money,
so I should pay you.
Thanks for the great memories.
You had the wrong impression of me.
I don't pretend to be in love...
for the sake of money.
I've never...
wanted money from you.
I loved you.
Let's end it here.
It's only right.
I know how you feel.
What do you know?
I pity myself.
I have nothing to my name,
and even my love has been trampled on.
I'm going to make a lot of money.
I'll come back then.
So please wait for me.
That's the only way I can prove...
my love for you.
(Lee Jin Sang)
Ae Sim.
I've never said such a thing before.
Honestly, I wanted to treat you better.
I thought just one game...
would help me get a luxurious apartment,
a luxurious car, a diamond ring,
and have several bodyguards.
I wanted to have three kids with you...
and live a happy life.
But all my efforts were to no avail.
Forget me who means less than a slipper,
and live happily...
no matter where you are.
(1st)
(1st, 2nd, 3rd)
It's best if they're bigger...
in both size and kidney than you.
(1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th)
(1st: Jin Sang)
(1st: Jin Sang, 2nd: Wae Sang)
What do you need to say?
I need to live.
I need a liver.
Who can give it to me?
A liver?
What do you mean all of a sudden?
I have liver cancer.
- What? - Poong Sang.
- Poong Sang.
I can live if I get a transplant.
I still have so much to do.
I want to live.
I must.
I'm sorry,
but which one of you can give it to me?
Me. I'll do it.
- Me too! - Stay out of this.
- I'll do it. - Get a checkup first.
Let's go right now.
- Right now? - Hurry up.
Why did you mention it only now?
You're such a fool!
- Hurry. - It's all right.
You don't have to panic.
Where are we going?
Aren't we going to a hospital?
Follow us.
What's wrong?
We're not headed to a hospital.
- Where are we going? - You don't have to know.
Hurry up!
What... What is this?
Get in!
Help me! Help me!
What? You want our liver?
You don't deserve it!
Are you even our older brother?
What have you done for us?
- How brazen of you. - Snap out of it.
Everything's your fault.
- You can't have my liver! - You can't have my liver!
- Bury him! - Let's do that!
Just die!
Hey, hurry up!
Welcome back.
Chil Bok.
You little... You punk. You piece of...
Yes? What is it?
Poong Sang told me to give you some meat.
Are you only giving it to me...
because Poong Sang told you to?
Yes.
See you.
- Hwa Sang. - Don't talk to me.
I'll eat it,
but something feels weird.
We're having beef? What's gotten into you?
Meat is the best.
Meat is the answer to everything.
Did you bring this?
My friends got it for me as a wedding gift.
But I never got to use it.
I feel like our family just got upgraded.
He says thank you.
Chil Bok's helping us out so much these days.
Let's eat.
I'm happiest when our family gathers together...
for a meal like this.
Cheers.
You need to get surgery before it spreads.
You have to tell them.
What's the agenda for today?
There are two things.
First of all, we should start living separately.
I knew it.
That's enough, Poong Sang.
As you already know,
we can get kicked out of this house any day now.
I feel anxious every single day.
Wae Sang, you should live with me...
until you become a certified mechanic.
Jin Sang and Hwa Sang.
You both need to earn your own living.
How are you going to get by if I'm gone?
Why would you be gone? Where are you going?
I won't be going anywhere.
But you never know what might happen.
No wonder you got us beef.
My point exactly.
Jin Sang, stop gambling as of today,
and get to your senses.
Once I'm gone, you'll have to...
take care of the siblings.
No one knows which one of us will die first.
There's no order when it comes to death.
- What? - You love...
Jeong Sang, Wae Sang, and Hwa Sang.
But you hate me, don't you?
Leave me out of that list.
Aren't you too old...
to say something like that?
Why do you think I act out?
Ever since I was young, I only got scolded...
and never received any love.
I act out because there's a huge hole in my heart.
You know nothing.
Then we should all be acting out.
You annoying brat.
You little...
I feel disappointed in you, Poong Sang.
If you helped me out a little...
back when I used to own a bar,
I'd be living in Gangnam...
and riding a nice car just like that jerk.
No, you wouldn't.
- You'd be bankrupt. - Stay out of this.
You started that bar with debt.
You were bound to go bankrupt.
Your life became a mess the moment...
you started gambling with your tuition.
Why can't you understand that?
I do understand.
But what could I do when I was uneducated and poor?
I wanted to get back on my feet...
by hitting the jackpot.
People get scammed because of their greed.
They don't even deserve to talk badly of swindlers.
- I agree. - Stay out of it!
You really make it sound so easy.
Have you ever been cornered like I have?
Do you know how it feels to live every day...
with the urge to take revenge?
Forget about that. I want to live with Mom.
Let me make one thing clear.
Don't ever talk about Mom in front of me again.
You can call her or live with her...
after I'm dead.
Who do you think you are?
- Wae Sang. - What's wrong with you?
Don't add on to this.
You sold out my dream and life.
And now, you're going to take away our mom?
- What are you saying? - You know what I mean!
Sit down.
I said, sit down!
You can't disrespect him...
just because I do.
I know our family's a mess,
but I won't allow this kind of behavior.
- Sit down! - Sit back down.
- Sit down. - Sit down.
My gosh.
This is great.
What a complete mess.
This is all your fault.
You were always easy on them.
That's why they have nothing better to say.
You should've broken Jin Sang's wrist...
to stop him from gambling.
And you should've shaved Hwa Sang's head...
to stop her from working at a bar.
You also should've broken Wae Sang's leg...
to stop him from being a gangster.
Why do you let yourself get blamed like this?
Stop acting like a know-it-all.
You're pretending to scold Poong Sang,
but you're actually criticizing us.
What's the next thing you have to say?
Let's just tell each other everything today.
I don't care if this turns into a complete mess.
There's not much time.
You need to get surgery before it spreads.
I...
Where are you? Did you eat tofu?
What's with your voice?
Are you upset because I didn't settle?
You know I couldn't because of Poong Sang.
Let's meet.
Hey!
You should cut him off.
Why do you keep meeting him...
when he's never made you happy?
If I got educated like she did,
I'd get hit on by lawyers and doctors.
But who would ever like someone like me?
I get looked down on...
just like how I get treated at home.
People really have a good eye for that.
I guess my face just shows...
that I get mistreated at home.
I'd be more affectionate if you did good things.
But you always cause trouble.
I need affection to do good things.
You'll ruin your life if you end up with him.
You need to stop working at bars...
and trying to scam people.
At least start going to a beauty academy.
Better yourself so that you can meet better men.
You think I get involved with blowflies like him...
because I'm not good enough?
You received all the support you ever needed,
so shut your mouth.
What was that word again? Depreciation?
No, it's deprivation.
Comparative deprivation.
Yes, that.
I'm about to feel that right now, so shut it.
Jeong Sang gave us more money...
than she ever received.
Even now, she gives us...
more than half her paycheck.
You never want to do anything...
including going to a beauty academy.
What in the world is your dream?
I don't have a dream.
It's not like I can achieve anything anyway.
I hate it when people ask me that.
What's so bad about living without a dream?
How can you say that?
- Cut ties with him... - That's enough!
I said, that's enough.
Why are you guys...
trying to control my life?
I'll decide how I'm going to live my life.
He's someone who accepts me for who I am.
You all look down on me,
but he's the only person...
who doesn't look down on me...
and loves me for who I am.
Do you know that?
But I still can't approve of him!
You can't approve of him?
What's the matter?
What are you doing?
Look!
What's that?
When... When did that happen?
Why did that happen?
When I was in seventh grade,
I was lying in bed with a fever.
Wae Sang started crying because he was hungry.
And I fell down while trying to cook...
ramyeon for him.
The boiling ramyeon fell on her as she fell.
It was because of me.
I couldn't tell you...
because I was scared that I'd get scolded.
And I couldn't even go to the hospital.
And I was going through adolescence,
so I couldn't show it to anyone either.
Do you even know how much it hurt?
Who in the world...
would love someone like me...
when I'm even disgusted by my own self?
All the other guys left me saying it was disgusting.
He's the only person who kissed me...
and cried for me regardless of this scar...
even when none of you ever knew about it.
This is driving me crazy.
Why is it that nothing ever works out for us?
We should all just die! Let's just die!
(Liver or Die)
I can't be bothered...
to care about my family anymore.
From now on, I'm going to live for myself.
- Are you high? - I deserve this.
Do you think I'm a money-making machine?
I'll be the nice one since I'm so darn pretty.
Be quiet.
Hey!
Hey, hey.
Are you nuts?
Can you please show mercy just this once?
Please. I beg of you.
Don't hide behind that scar from now on.
Hey!
I want to live.
