You know it wasn't a show.
So I need you back.
But you have a goal you have to go toward.
And you can't stop.
But I can't go.
I resolved not to look back.
That's my nature.
To sting knowing that I'll drown as well.
That's all I've thought about.
That's who I am.
I'm just a beast who's crazy for a fight.
But it's so hard to go on.
I can't sleep without drinking.
I don't care whose memories you're clinging to.
I still need you by my side.
That's the only way I can live.
I told you I can't stay by your side.
And I said I don't care.
You can live as you always have.
Just don't let go of my hand.
I'm sorry. I can't do this.
Can you please save me?
You don't know how much I want to hold your hand.
But I can't.
I feel so bad about him.
I told you to keep his memories.
I'm not asking you to forget him.
Just stay with me. Please.
He died for me.
In that split second and without any hesitation,
he turned the car to save me.
How can I forget someone like that?
Don't forget him.
Just don't run away from me.
But we can't be together.
Even if we want to, things have already turned.
I'll take care of it.
I'll do anything to be with you.
I'll do anything because I can't live without you.
So just say yes.
How can I see you suffer like that?
I know you'll bear the pain by yourself.
Just say yes. That's all you need to say.
You couldn't wait for me?
Is it still a mess at your company?
Is that weasel still causing trouble?
What's wrong with that punk?
Don't drink. You're still recovering.
That weasel's taking over our company.
What happened?
My grandfather made the decision.
You can't let him do that!
I'm going to be out of a job soon.
I might not be able to treat you like I used to.
Why didn't you fight him until the end?
I told you I'm incompetent.
I wanted to bite him back, but I don't have any fangs.
I have a promotion exam coming up soon.
My salary will go up.
So it'll be my turn to treat you.
Forget it.
I said I got you!
I'm a genius.
I finally finished it.
Good job.
Stand up.
Why's it loose?
So much for being a genius.
But I tied it up.
This sucks.
This is fun for me.
My mother could knit quite well.
She knit different outfits for our family for summer and winter.
She'd undo the thread and make new outfits from it.
I was so envious of my brother when he helped her.
You could've told her that you wanted to try.
I didn't want to look envious of my younger brother.
No wonder you haven't done many things.
You have a personality problem.
You'll only make it worse by saying that.
I'm trying to train you to be tough.
Treat me nicely, or I'll fuss.
Don't act up.
Thanks to you, I get my childhood wish.
Why are we here?
I want to get some rest.
I haven't been sleeping well.
I'm going to take a nap.
Go ahead.
I didn't know why
Hye-joo couldn't breathe at the sight of Hyun-gyu.
But I understand it now.
I couldn't breathe at the thought of not seeing you again.
But I can breathe now.
I'm going. You can close the shop.
Where are you going?
It'll be hard for us.
And I'll feel bad for you.
Do one thing from now on.
Just listen to me and no one else.
I'll always be right here. I won't go anywhere else.
If you miss me, you can find me right here.
What do you mean?
We can eat together, go to karaoke,
and hold hands like before.
So what?
You won't lose anything.
Grandfather's decided to accept your offer.
It'll go as you and your father planned.
So you don't have to put me on the same scale with your parents.
What are you trying to say?
We don't have to walk the same path.
You can always find me here, so you don't...
Are you ashamed of me?
You don't want your family to know about me.
You know that's not it.
But that's how I'll take it if you mention it again.
We'll just...
I'm going to marry you.
I won't be content seeing you secretly.
I can't do that.
Although his memories are blurry, I still have them in me.
Knowing that, I can't say I'll be with you.
I said I don't care about that.
But I do.
I'll just ignore it.
Then I'll be doing you wrong.
I don't want to do that.
Just do me wrong. Do it for me.
After Hye-joo told me you were sick,
I stayed out here overnight.
I wanted to call you to come out, but I couldn't.
I thought that wouldn't change anything.
I spent a few more nights drinking until I met Hyun-gyu.
He told me you asked him to be that guy,
and that your memories of him were fading.
That's enough for me. I won't ask you for more.
Even if he's in your memories, I'm okay with that.
Please wait until I get him out of my mind.
Good night.
Don't make me wait too long...
...unless you want to see me die.
I don't think I can hold onto you anymore.
I want to hold onto you, but I'll feel bad about
keeping him waiting.
So just hate me, Jin-ha.
Just give me the medicine and go.
It's cold. You can stay in my car.
I'm not cold.
What if you fall asleep here?
Why does it hurt so much?
I told myself over and over that it was over.
But it still hurts so much.
Why are you giving up?
You weren't like this before.
Why, you ask?
Because she loves your brother.
She cries because of him.
So I just have to let her go.
I thought I had the courage to let her go,
but my head's still filled with her.
Are you sober now?
I'm okay now.
Drink this. You'll feel much better.
I'll have to get another job to pay you back for these.
Since you're joking, you must be sober.
Aren't you cold?
You're always waiting for me in this kind of weather.
I don't really know.
I'm more worried about you sleeping on the street.
What is it?
That day...
...the day you first saw me under the cherry tree,
I already had someone in my heart then.
If I hadn't, then maybe I would've seen you
and realized there was a kind-looking girl staring at me.
I shouldn't say this as your friend.
Friends can talk about anything.
No, I shouldn't say things that you might hold in your heart.
For you, I must be the cruelest person on earth.
That's not true.
I'll never think badly of you.
Uncle, I really hate her nasal voice.
Same here.
Sister, how could you send her here?
Does she think she's pretty or something?
She's such an eyesore.
Keep it down!
I have my hands full with my children,
yet you want me to find someone for your daughter?
Finding a suitor in Seoul isn't guaranteed.
I'll send her back tomorrow, Sister.
Head back home tomorrow, Soon-jin.
I can't, Aunt.
There are guys in my town who are fighting over me.
Say what?
It's my looks.
The guys were fighting so desperately.
Mom sent me out of town because of them.
Maybe the loser had to date you or something.
Aunt!
Guys have a thing for a glamorous body like mine.
They ran into each other.
They're going to get into a fight.
That's all they ever do.
Gang-suk!
It's been a long time.
Hey, Soon-jin.
Gang-suk, what happened to you?
You look so frail.
What's wrong with Gang-suk?
At least he didn't come home drunk today.
I'm giving my liver a break.
Don't drink too much.
I'm going up.
Tell me all your worries.
She grabbed her hair!
Let's see.
Punish her!
Another addict in this house.
Why are so you late?
It's way past your shift.
Is driving that hard for you?
He's in a lot of pain.
He's given up on Professor Ha.
I'm going to marry her.
I want to change my ways now.
Then you're giving up on her family's business?
I'll have to find a way. Go to sleep.
Gang-suk.
I feel so relieved.
Now you feel like the brother I grew up with.
That boy will have a hard time.
Please watch over him.
Then maybe he'll open up to you.
I don't expect something like that.
I'm looking at him because I just can't turn away from him.
I didn't know what that meant before,
but I'm slowly getting there.
Are you asleep?
No.
Why aren't you sleeping?
Just because. Why aren't you sleeping?
I have to bother you so you don't make me wait too long.
Do I seem desperate?
Why don't you answer me?
If I do, you'll fuss.
I missed doing this.
I didn't know everyday things could be so addictive.
Let me tell you something.
What?
I'll beat up Mr. Slap here
if you make me wait too long.
He'll be a scapegoat for you.
Do the right thing if you want him to stay alive.
You're not sleeping?
I have to go.
Hung up on me again.
Blame your master.
I heard you talking.
I wasn't.
Are you still doing that?
You're still talking to Jin-ha's picture?
You need to let him go.
He can't rest in peace
if you keep trying to talk to him from this world.
Grandma.
Yes.
Is that true he can't rest if I keep holding onto him?
Of course.
What brought this on?
You actually listened to me.
I bet you hit Slap when I hung up on you.
Do you have a spy cam in my room?
I won't hang up on you again.
Do you mean that?
What brought this on?
It's because I'm keeping you waiting.
Dan-ah.
Yes.
Is she doing this on purpose?
Do you know where the liquor is?
Are you looking for the liquor?
Just tell me where it is. I'll look for it myself.
Are you messing with me?
I'll call you back, Professor.
It's in the storage room. I'll find it for you.
No, finish your conversation.
You can't go to sleep?
I feel crappy after having wasted 18 years of my life.
It couldn't be helped.
Did someone come into the room?
My grandmother.
Why's she still up at this hour?
And didn't you hear what I said last time?
Say I'll call you back, so I know what's going on.
I'm sorry, I didn't remember.
You're repentant, aren't you?
Your punishment is to chatter until I fall asleep.
You don't want to see who falls asleep first?
I'll let you take this one.
The palace had a regulated distance, 01:30:06:18 01:30:09:11 but not for the taesil.
What are you saying?
You wanted me to chatter, so I was reading a book.
Smack!
Sorry?
I smacked the heck out of Mr. Slap.
Why does the chairman want us to eat together?
Maybe he has an announcement to make.
Are you all right?
I'm okay.
I broke another one.
Breaking a lot of dishes will bring your family bad luck.
What?
Are you saying I'm the reason for recent run of bad luck?
She's not careful about what she says.
Please watch your mouth, Jo-man.
You're not any different, Grandmother.
Sorry?
You probably think I'm the reason
for the recent troubles in the family.
That's absurd.
Honey, I need to talk to you.
What's wrong, Young-in?
Why are you so sensitive around Grandmother Sam-wol?
I don't know.
I think my pride's hurt.
What about your pride?
I just feel careworn.
And why do you feel that way?
My first husband.
He was studying for the civil service exam.
I know.
He failed it five times after we got married.
I thought he'd pass without trouble.
My mother-in-law blamed me for his misfortune.
I wanted to divorce him, but my pride was on the line.
I waited for him to pass, so I could divorce him then.
You're so obstinate.
I was back then, but I'm just careworn now.
I wonder if I'm not the right person for this family.
The lowly Suk-ho crumbled the mighty Young-in's pride.
I'm sorry, Young-in.
But you seem more beautiful and approachable.
What about cute?
That too.
I wanted us to get together,
and cheer one another up during this hard time.
Life has its ups and downs.
But at least everyone here is healthy and well.
Let's just be grateful
and approach any future hardships with resolve.
What'd you expect from me?
Right.
You wasted 18 years of my life,
but since I'm so nice, I'll forgive you.
So don't worry about me.
Thanks.
Let's eat.
You have an appetite now?
Yes.
You should've listened to him sooner.
See how well he eats now.
Want to go play golf?
I have an engagement.
You should take a break and enjoy your day off.
Hye-joo.
Yes, Soon-jin.
Who's that guy on your computer?
He's so handsome!
Is he a basketball player?
Why'd you enter her room without permission?
I wanted to use her computer.
Come on, we're cousins.
Hye-joo has pictures of a guy on her computer?
She must be really into him.
She has a lot of pictures.
Is Hye-joo seeing someone then?
She left the door locked.
Housekeeper, bring me the key to Hye-joo's room.
I'm leaving.
Bye.
Hurry!
Housekeeper.
Yes.
Tell her you don't have the key.
Yes.
Give me the key.
I've looked everywhere, but I can't find it.
How could that be?
I must've left it somewhere.
Is he that handsome?
He's really handsome.
He seemed like a basketball player?
A lot of the pictures were of him playing basketball.
But I don't like a guy who's into sports.
You saw his picture?
She left the door locked, and we couldn't find the key.
But I think he plays sports.
Sports?
Sports players don't have their futures guaranteed.
Soon-jin thinks he's a basketball player.
That's fine.
I'll just buy a team and make him the coach.
That's right.
Everyone should participate in the ceremony preparations.
What about you?
My rank is very high.
Young-in.
Yes.
I think Tae-young's slacking.
Father.
What?
I think I'm Pot-jwi.
She's the bad one.
You mean Kong-jwi? Think before you talk.
Dan-ah, it's your cell phone.
Hello?
Are you home?
Yes.
I wasted my time coming to the museum thinking you'd be here.
I'll pick you up at your house.
I have to prepare for the New Year ceremony.
Repeat after me, Hello, Professor.
I said repeat after me.
Hello, Professor.
Right now?
Right now.
I'll be right there.
Dan-ah, let's go grocery shopping.
Yes, Professor. I'll be right there.
Well done.
You have to go to the school?
Yes.
How do you feel?
Sorry?
How does it feel to be hung up on?
Just fine.
That wasn't nice.
I missed doing this, so I'll do it for you every time.
Am I being too clingy?
I just thought I'd smile a lot again.
Here's a trick. Driving with one hand.
It's dangerous.
At the worst, we'll die together.
Call me in a minute.
What?
What was that about?
Dear son, you're frequenting the bathroom.
Why don't you keep a time log too?
I started to.
Hey, Chan-soo.
What?
How did that happen?
Which hospital? I'll be right there.
Mother, my friend's father passed away.
Is there a contagious disease among your friends' fathers?
Sorry?
They're all passing away.
Chul-soo's father had been sick.
Min-tae.
I meant Min-tae.
I just got confused there.
This friend's father, he was in a car accident.
I'll be back soon, Father.
Go ahead.
I'm suspicious.
Call the cops on me then.
You're lying.
I'm not.
You lied last time to get away too.
But I'm not lying.
I'll tell Grandma that you lied last time.
Don't do that to your dad.
Buy me a game then.
This sucks.
It's so hard to make a scarf.
Jin-ah.
Yes.
How long to knit a blanket?
A blanket?
It's been several weeks since I started working on this scarf.
So maybe months.
Make that several years.
I'd better keep the yarn hidden.
Sorry?
Nothing.
Hello?
Let's go get some black bean sauce noodles.
But I have to study.
Eat and then study.
But I have a lot to study.
Then we'll just have them delivered to your house.
No, I'll come out.
I thought you were treating noodles.
I can't treat you when I'm out of a job.
Enjoy it while you can.
So let me just study for the promotion.
You're the only one I can hang out with.
Which friend did you use as an excuse?
My son blackmailed me into buying him a game, or he'd tell.
Kids are scary.
Dong-dong wants a game?
Either I get him one or he'll rat out on me.
We'll go buy it after we eat.
You wanted to study though.
It's good.
Your coffee gets better each day.
Maybe I'll open a coffee shop.
I'm giving up on the takeover.
I can't do that to my wife's company.
Guess why I'm saying that.
I'm trying to put pressure on you.
If you make me wait too long, I'll make a fool out of myself.
I need a reason to justify my change in plans.
Am I really worth all that?
Am I worth giving up on your goals?
They're not my goals anymore.
I was relieved to have the scars
from the accident ten years ago.
I thought they'd keep me from becoming someone else's woman.
If we just stay the way we are,
you won't have to see the scars that I don't even want to see.
I suppose the scars mean a lot to you.
They'll remind you of my past.
I'm relieved to hear you say that.
It means you're getting closer to me.
Even if you were covered with scars,
or had a scar that would disgust everyone,
I would still come for you.
You made me want to live like a human being.
Here's the card.
Don't spend your money.
I'm getting paid soon.
Forget it.
Don't argue with me.
Go ahead.
What's wrong with you?
I want to do something for Dong-dong.
I think I'll try my brother's trick next time.
You're copying him again?
I've been envious of him since we were kids.
We were born only ten minutes apart,
but he was really different from me.
Unlike me, he really knew how to enjoy life.
Is that the first time you've said that?
Yes.
I don't want to look like a sore loser.
That's a good one.
I got that one from my brother too.
It looks delicious.
I'm so happy!
How old were you when you entered the orphanage?
It was right after I was born.
You must be curious about your parents.
I'm not.
I never had them in my life, so I don't miss them.
You should look for them if you get the chance.
The orphanage might be gone, but records are still available.
I don't want to.
I'm sure they had a reason to abandon me.
Want to hear my childhood dream?
What is it?
To be a mom.
I'll bring an umbrella on a rainy day,
make a boxed lunch in the morning,
and cheer up my child over a bad test grade.
A mom who looks after her child.
Isn't it too ordinary?
Students might see us.
Let them know you're taken.
I'm a professor here.
So what?
They'll say,
The witch got herself a boyfriend.
They call you a witch?
I told you I feed on grudges.
Right, and you'll live a long life.
Even better.
Make them say,
How did that witch get herself such a fine man?
Wait for me in the car.
I don't know what I would've done if it weren't for you.
Thank you.
It's good to see her smile.
Keep making her smile.
Thank you for not making him my enemy.
If you had been with him first,
I couldn't have won you over.
Did something bad happen at school?
I saw her holding hands with your brother.
They got back together.
He said he's going to marry Professor Ha.
They're getting married?
Yes.
I guess you can't change what's meant to be.
I couldn't win her over for four years,
but your brother did it in a few months.
Let's go.
Let's go drink.
I'll drink later on.
I'm not an alcoholic yet.
I'll call you later.
And for a long time too.
It's the worst kind of torture,
to deprive someone of sleep.
But you can't sleep either.
It comes with the job.
I'll be kicking Mr. Slap too.
Don't make me get ugly and surrender early on.
Yes, President Ha.
I'll have Dan-ah deliver it to you.
Jeon Sang-gil made a move?
He let other shareholders know he's getting involved.
He must've figured he had nothing to gain from the takeover.
He's talking to the other shareholders.
I told you something like this might happen.
He knows the shares are really cheap right now,
and that we're paying double for Chairman Ha's shares.
He knows he can inflate the shares and sell them to us.
What are you going to do now?
Jeon Sang-gil is just like us.
He'll do anything once he smells money.
He might even shoot for the entire pot.
I'll find a way.
This is exactly why I didn't want to waste our money.
I'll meet Jeon Sang-gil.
He has no reason to meet you.
I won't let anyone take Daeseong.
He's known as an infamous hyena.
And he has a network of rich groups.
I'll take care of it.
How?
We can't even sum up the stakes from here!
I'll stop him at all costs.
Can I trust you?
Yes.
Okay. I'll go secure our shareholders.
Dan-ah.
Have you been somewhere?
I went to the advertising company.
We're leaving,
but I want them to keep giving their best service.
I see.
What brings you here?
I have Grandma Sam-wol's stock documents.
There's a restaurant he goes to every day.
Good work.
You made this darn mess!
Now everyone's trying to take a bite out of our company!
What's going on?
Our company might be liquidated because of him.
Please stop this.
Stay out of it!
Grandfather gave in so the company would be preserved.
But it's up for grabs to third-parties now!
What do you mean?
Let him go.
If he hadn't attempted a takeover,
our company wouldn't be in trouble!
Let him go!
Just what happened?
The situation turned out for the worst.
As the saying goes,
greed brings the downfall of man.
Thank you. You can go now.
That punk's going to destroy our company.
Yes?
I'm outside your house.
I thought I only had to wait for your answer,
and everything else was just a matter of time.
But as your brother said, my greed brought my downfall.
Will our company fall into someone else's hands?
I'll try my best to stop it.
But I can't guarantee anything.
Worst case scenario,
we won't be able to be together
because I'll become your family's enemy.
But I'm relieved that I tried to hold you back.
Good night.
I hadn't taken off that necklace for ten years.
But I took it off last night.
He gave me the ring the day he proposed to me.
I'm not completely over him, and from time to time,
I still feel guilty that my love was so fragile.
But I couldn't keep that ring on.
Despite who you are, and what you did to my family,
even if you were to become our enemy,
I'm not going to let go of you.
I don't know what I have to do,
but I want to stay with you.
We need to go somewhere.
My name is Lee Gang-suk.
I'm in love with your woman.
YOO JIN-HA'S GRAVE
You loved her before me,
and even gave your life for her.
I know I'm no match for you.
So I know you'll live on in her heart.
At one point,
I resented you for living on in her memories.
But I won't do that anymore.
Because you saved her life.
I met her, and she made me want to live as a human being.
She felt guilty about letting you go,
but she decided to be with me out of sympathy.
So today, with this woman, I've come to you,
who died for her sake, to make a promise.
After she passes away, I'll send her to be with you.
But...
...while she's still alive, I'll keep her by my side.
Subtitles by K B F D
That woman was nothing.
Then why were you there with her?
You're acting like my girlfriend now.
It's a bouquet. You're mine now.
The test result revealed a problem.
Is there no cure?
You should break up with her now.
Soo-young!
What are you doing here?
You can still see her if I just cover your ears.
I'm not scared.
You're the worst case scenario for my family.
I'm going.
Are you mad at me?
It'll be tough.
But you can always rely on me.
I love you a lot.
