"Episode 11"
I told you that it's non-smoking inside the studio.
Hey, Producer Kim!
How long has it been?
Scolding me as soon as you see me, huh?
-Were there any problems while l was gone? -Of course not.
How could there be a problem when l'm here?
What was up with you?
You took all your sick days and vacation days.
- lf people didn't know any better, - they might have thought you quit.
l had my reasons.
Here.
Thanks for finishing this project for me.
By the way, confirm the raw materials with Marcian.
You are acting strange, Yoojin.
Why are you quitting in the middle of the project?
That's because you are better than me.
As if you didn't know.
Did you have some kind of trouble with Marcian?
lt's nothing like that. Don't worry.
Fine.
"4 Missed calls"
"Recently received calls"
"Lee Minhyung"
Excuse me.
My mom wants us to come for dinner.
Are you all done?
Yes.
Yoojin, help yourself.
Yes. Thank you for the food.
Let's eat.
By the way...
...l saw a nice apartment nearby. What do you think?
Don't you think an apartment would be more convenient for you?
Mom, you don't have to look for us.
Right after we get married,
l want to leave abroad to study.
Study abroad?
Yes.
l haven't consulted with Yoojin yet,
but l want to study more.
It's okay, right?
What?
Yes.
But still. All of a sudden…
You should, if that's what you want. Good thinking.
Let's eat.
Are you okay with us studying abroad?
You said you wanted to study more, too.
It's fine with me.
Let's have a simple wedding. Let's just think of it as a formality.
I'm okay, so do as you please.
Fine.
Okay. I'm going in now.
Do you regret it?
No.
You're home.
Guess who is here.
Surprise!
You're here, Yoojin.
Yes.
Yoojin...
Did you cry again?
I didn't cry.
Mom, I didn't cry.
Are...
Are you okay?
Sanghyuk said that,
he wants to go abroad to study.
What do you think?
I see.
I think it's a good idea.
You should go when you have the chance.
Lt always bothered me that L didn't get to give you more.
It turned out well then.
Right?
Lt turned out well, right?
Mom...
I...
Can't I just live by myself?
What are you talking about?
Why are you doing this again, Yoojin?
It's just that...
I feel guilty to other people.
I feel like a bad person.
I can't stand it.
What makes you think like that?
You are back to your place, so what's so bad about that?
Yoojin,
is Sanghyuk giving you a hard time?
Did his mother say something to you?
No.
It's just...
It's just that I feel like I'm a bad person.
I'm a bad person, Mom.
If I still can't forget him, doesn't that make me a bad person?
Whenever I look at Sanghyuk now....
I feel like...
...there is a big hole in my heart.
Isn't that bad?
After Junsang died,
I've been so bad.
I was so sad.
So sad that...
...I didn't really care about Sanghyuk.
And how can I stay beside Sanghyuk now?
How?
How can I do that?
Still...
Still, you have to.
But for me...
It's so hard for me to endure.
Mom.
It's so hard for me.
According to Mr. Park, Area C is okay. But I think we need to work on it.
And there is something we overlooked before the construction...
Kim...
I want to take a few days off. ls that okay?
Actually that's what I was going to say.
Don't worry about anything.
Stay strong, Yoojin.
Love is not the only important thing.
Who you are to Sanghyuk.
The fact that you belong to someone...
...is just as important.
That's destiny, Yoojin.
Don't be sad.
Don't be sad, Yoojin.
Sure. Professor Yoon can take care of that.
I trust you Professor Kim.
- Hello, Professor. - Hi.
"Kang Mihee Homecoming Piano Recital"
Do you think she'll let us interview her?
Well, I mentioned it but I heard she really hates any kind of interview.
Still, we'll give it a shot.
Excuse me.
I'm here to see Kang Mihee.
What is this regarding?
I'm...
Her recital is in a few minutes. Can you come back after the recital?
Ah, I see.
Please check the microphone once more.
Okay.
Dad.
Any luck?
Let me see.
This is a very good spot and this is all you could do?
I don't think you are from around here but I see you a lot these days.
I''m here for a few days to rest.
I think it would be nice to do ice fishing here.
You must be out of your mind.
You may think the lake is not so deep, but it's deeper than it looks.
Every year people drown here.
Long ago, I saved a little kid who almost drowned here.
That was almost 20 years ago.
Yes, I see.
But sometimes people forget too easily.
If it's me,
I would come every year to say thank you if someone saved my life.
Junsang, that kid.
He never comes to thank me.
What did you just say?
I was just talking about the kid I saved long time ago.
He must be a full-grown adult by now.
No, what did you say his name was?
The kid you saved. What was his name?
Junsang. His name is Junsang.
Why?
Yes. I see. I'll be there in a minute.
Dad, you know Kang Mihee?
Yes. We went to high school together,
and I dropped by to say hi since she's having a recital in Korea.
What brings you here?
I''m here to interview her for our program.
Oh, I see.
I'm sorry to make you wait.
I'm sorry.
It's been a long time.
Yes, it has.
Hello.
My name is Kim Sanghyuk, the producer from Music Album.
And he happens to be my father.
You look a lot like your father.
I'm very glad to meet you.
I was worried because I heard you are very difficult to interview.
Maybe I should have asked my father for help if I knew that you two were close.
Anytime is fine with us.
We would really appreciate it if you could come and do a live interview.
Well...
You have a call from your son. He says he is on his way.
Oh, really? Thanks.
I think it would be better if you talk to my secretary about the interview schedule.
Where is Mr. Kim?
He is in the technical room.
Mr. Kim takes care of my schedule, so you could talk to him later.
Yes. I'll get going now.
Dad, I'll see you later.
Yes. I'll see you at home.
Goodbye.
You had a son?
Producer Kim.
That was a "yes" just now, right?
- I'm not sure. - I think it was a yes.
Thanks to your dad it was easily solved. It's good to have connections.
By the way, aren't you going home with your dad after the recital?
Oh, that's right.
I'll tell him that I'll be waiting for him in the lobby.
- I'll be back. - All right.
Do you know Kang Junsang?
Kang Junsang came to see me 10 years ago.
And he asked me if I knew you.
And?
And not too long after that, he died in a car accident.
So, I...
...thought that he might be your son.
Nonsense. My son is alive and well to this moment.
Yes, of course.
So, it's true that you have a son.
No one told me that you got married.
It's 10 minutes before the recital.
Yes, okay.
- I have to go now. - All right.
By the way...
Did you know that Hyunsoo died?
I guess you didn't know.
When?
Long ago.
16 years ago.
Hyunsoo is dead.
I'll be going now.
Dad.
You didn't go yet?
I was going to go home with you.
Should I wait for you in the lobby?
No.
I just dropped by.
I see.
Then, enjoy the recital.
Yes, I'll see you at home.
Please look this way.
Congratulations.
-When is your next recital? -When are you leaving Seoul?
Ms. Kang!
-I have to get going first. -What?
I can't do dinner with you tonight. I’m sorry.
Sorry for what? It's not like you made time for me before.
But the recital was good, right?
Yes, it was fantastic.
I watched her on video before, but seeing her live was different. So charismatic.
But somehow she didn't look too good tonight.
She looked pale.
Doctor, this way.
Dr. Ahn?
Minhyung!
Hurry!
Mom.
-Ms. Kang, can you hear me? -Mom.
Are you okay?
ls she okay?
Yes, she's okay.
She'll be okay by tomorrow morning.
It seems like...
...she have a lot of stress.
I’m glad you came to the recital tonight.
I’m just a psychologist, so I couldn't be of much help.
If it was serious, I don't know what I could have done.
But still, thank you.
My mother doesn't go to therapy these days, right?
No, I haven't seen her since I came back to Korea.
I’m sure she doesn't need more therapy.
Dr. Ahn.
You've known my mother for a long time, right?
Yes. Ever since the U.S.
Are you sure I'm an only son?
I mean...
Did I live in the U.S. all my life?
No, but...
What do you mean by that?
That's nonsense.
I saw you growing up in the U.S. ever since you were born.
I guarantee it.
I bought this for really cheap today.
Lt was only 5,000 won for ten. Isn't that really cheap?
The truth is, the lady said I was pretty and gave me two for free.
I think it'll be tasty.
Why aren't you eating? You like apples.
It's really good.
Yoojin.
Today,
I saw Lee Minhyung.
Why are you telling me that?
Just because. I thought you might want to know.
What do you want me to say?
I feel like you are testing me.
You know I don't do too well on tests.
What is the right answer for that?
Can you give me a hint?
If I say I don't feel anything that would be lying.
And If I say I felt something, you are going to feel bad about it.
What do I have to say to make you feel better?
It's okay.
That's more than enough.
You don't have to be more honest with me.
Let's not talk about these kind of things anymore.
Hey, I might finish everything.
It's good.
You almost drowned in a lake when you were 7 year's old.
How could you say those things?
Who did you say you saved?
Junsang. His name is Junsang.
I've known you since you were born in the U.S. I guarantee it.
Hello?
Minhyung, it's me.
Did you drink? Are you drunk?
What do you mean you're not? You are drunk, right?
Where are you? I'll go there.
Hello? Minhyung!
Where are you going?
To see Minhyung.
What?
Chaerin!
Minhyung.
I knew you would be here.
I used to come here with you all the time, remember?
I was worried about you.
As a friend.
What is it that makes you drink so much?
What is wrong?
Kang Junsang.
People say I look a lot like him.
If I look so much like him...
...don't you think we are somehow related?
What do you mean?
Lt just crossed my mind.
Maybe he is my relative,
or my long lost twin brother.
Or maybe I'm Junsang.
Minhyung, you are too funny.
You like Yoojin that much?
You are desperate enough to be Junsang to have Yoojin?
I came here because I was worried. And all you talk is nonsense.
What?
You think you might be Junsang?
Why don't you just go to Yoojin and tell her that you are Junsang?
Yes.
I didn't think of that.
If I do, do you think she'll come back to me?
Leave.
-You shouldn't be here. -Stop drinking!
Don't do this, Minhyung!
I don't want to see you break down like this!
I don't want to see you talking about Junsang because of Yoojin.
You are Minhyung, not Junsang!
You are just obsessed with Yoojin.
Obsessed.
I don't know.
That may be true.
Where you going? Are you going to Yoojin?
I want to be alone.
I'm leaving.
I thought I could see Jinsook before I left. I guess she's late.
You have to go to work tomorrow, so don't wait for her and just go.
I haven't seen this necklace before.
-Is it new? -Oh, this?
You must really like it.
You never wear accessories, unless it's a gift.
It's pretty.
Lt suits you.
Oh, yes.
Let's go. I'll walk you out.
Try to bundle up more. You look cold.
It's okay as long as my heart is warm.
I'm going to scold you if you end up catching a cold.
Okay, thanks.
Minhyung.
How are you feeling?
I'm okay.
Were you here the whole time?
Are you okay?
I want to ask you something, Mom.
What is it?
Have you heard of the name,
Kang Junsang before?
Who is that?
That's what I want to ask you.
Mom, please tell me honestly.
You really don't know Kang Junsang?
I really don't know.
Who is he?
People say he looks just like me.
He looks just like me and,
he almost drowned just like me too.
You almost drowned in a lake when you were 7 year's old.
How could you say those things?
Well, I...
Mother.
You really don't know?
I really don't.
Minhyung, is there something wrong?
I want to rest now.
Yoojin.
Are you going to be late tonight?
Well...
If nothing special comes up, I won't be late.
If you can come home early too, we should cook something special.
Okay.
What's wrong?
Lt seems like things between that guy and Chaerin are working out.
Minhyung?
She happily went to see him last night.
That's good.
Right?
I know what you are worried about.
You don't need to worry.
I trust you.
- I'm going. - See you.
Hello?
Yes. I'll send it by 3 o'clock.
Okay.
Hello? Did I miss something?
Chaerin.
Why did you want to see me?
Do I need a reason to see a friend?
I said I was going to make your wedding dress.
That and…
You're smart but you can be dumb sometimes.
What?
Being honest can't be always good,
but it could be convenient sometimes.
Tell me.
You have something to say to me, right?
I heard you are seeing Minhyung again.
ls that what you wanted to tell me?
No.
It's actually the opposite.
Minhyung keeps pushing me away.
Yoojin, please help me.
You are the only one who can help me. I came here to ask you for that favor.
I...
I thought I could get him back if you married Sanghyuk.
But he says it's over.
I said I could handle it even if he can't forget you...
...but he said no.
I want to help him get over you.
I want to take care of him,
and heal the pain you caused,
but he keeps pushing me away.
Yoojin, you have to help me.
It's not for me, but for Minhyung.
Please, Yoojin.
You don't even have a date. Let me have that ticket.
What are you talking about? I can find a date.
I'm not sure if you can find someone in 2 hours.
Seriously...
Should I just blow my nose with it?
Here.
- Take it. - Really?
Hurry up and take it before I change my mind.
Then, I'll have to take it.
- You have to write a report about it. - Of course.
I don't have much time left. I have to go. Thanks.
"Jeong Yoojin"
How are you?
Fine.
- The reason I called today is... - Hold on.
Before you say anything...
Can I...
...just look at you for a moment...
...and imagine?
Just for a moment.
Can I just imagine for a moment...
...that you called me out because you missed me?
Is that okay?
The reason why I called is...
This.
I feel like...
...I have to return it to you.
Lt shouldn't belong to me anymore.
I'm sorry, Minhyung.
No. I'm sorry.
When you called me,
I knew you wanted to see me because of the necklace.
But still,
there was this expectation.
I'm so stupid, right?
But I'm grateful to this necklace.
Because of this, I get to see you once more.
Lt feels weird to be back in Seoul,
after being at the ski resort for a long time.
What about you?
Winter seems over here.
There isn't any snow.
And everyone seems different.
Everything feels unfamiliar.
I feel the same way.
I seem to be the only one living in the winter.
Over here...
What I should and what I shouldn't do feel so clear.
I want to go back.
I met Chaerin today.
She really likes you.
Looking at her having a hard time,
makes me feel bad for her.
If it weren't for me,
you two would get along fine.
Wishing Chaerin and I...
...get back together is something I hope not to hear from you.
Don't say it.
You see...
Although I can do whatever you want me to do,
I can't do that.
It's not fair for Chaerin either.
I was out of line.
Yoojin...
How are you doing?
Good.
And you?
Me, too.
Gosh, this is so annoying. I think the signal isn't working.
- Shall we just cross? - Let's just go.
Let's cross.
Okay.
Hey, the signal is not working.
- Let's cross the road down there. - Okay, let's go.
I guess it's broken.
If I didn't look like Kang Junsang,
you wouldn't have given me a chance, right?
At first, you thought that I might be Junsang, right?
I did.
Later, I knew that you weren't him.
Right.
I can't be Junsang.
These days,
I feel like I'm waiting for a broken signal.
Don't think like that.
I know. It doesn't make sense.
Shall we take the crosswalk down the road?
There was a time like this when I was young.
At that time, I took a different route.
And I remember the way home seemed so long and hard.
The road I should take has already been decided.
Even though the signal is broken, I feel like this is the road I should take.
If I take a different route,
I might get lost again and have a hard time.
I'll get going.
Where have you been?
Oh.
When did you get here?
About an hour ago.
I was planning to watch a concert with you.
Oh well, it doesn't matter.
-you want to come up for some tea? -No, thanks.
So, where have you been?
Are you coming from the office?
What?
Yes.
Oh right!
This is for you.
I was waiting because I wanted to give you this.
Do you remember,
when you said you would take my hand if I asked?
What?
You said that you'd take my hand,
whenever I'm lonely or sad.
Oh, yeah.
So, are you going to Chuncheon tomorrow with Sanghyuk?
Yes.
I see.
Lt must be hard for your mother to prepare for the wedding all by herself.
You should go visit often.
Yoojin, take this with you.
Mother.
It's nothing really. It's just dried fish.
You didn't have to.
Yes, I had to.
Yoojin.
Thank you.
You saved Sanghyuk.
No.
Honey. Stop lecturing Yoojin and come over here.
Yeah, Mom. Stop lecturing Yoojin.
Yoojin, so when are you quitting your job?
I can quit now if I wanted to but I think I'll have to help out until the wedding.
There are some unfinished projects left.
Even though you guys are rushing the wedding, there is still a lot to prepare.
Just ask me if you need any help, okay?
I will.
So, there's only about a month left until the wedding?
Yes!
Oh, my.
- Look at him. - Are you that happy?
Of course, Dad.
Didn't you tell them that it's your father's birthday?
It's not even the anniversary of his death, it's just his birthday.
I didn't want to bother your mother about it. That's why I didn't tell her.
But she still knew.
Come to the radio station tomorrow. Let's go together.
Okay.
Hello?
Yoojin, where are you?
I'm on my way home.
I'm with Mr. Kim right now. Come join us.
We're at our usual place.
Why?
What do you mean why? Because we're going back to the ski resort tomorrow.
So come by and say goodbye.
Mr. Kim says he wants to see you.
Come on.
I think I'm just going to go home.
Hey, Jeong Yoojin.
Minhyung isn't here, so don't worry. Just come.
No,
I want to get some rest at home.
Really?
Fine, then.
Bye.
Why? She's not coming?
She's going home to get some rest.
What? So it's just you and me again?
-Great. -Oh, great.
-This sucks. -Seriously.
I should start dressing up starting tomorrow.
I should give that poor Minhyung a call, then.
- Give him some comfort. - Sounds good.
Hello? It's me. Where are you?
Why? You should have told her you'd drop by.
Do you want to go?
No, I'll just go home."
Who's there?
Mr. Kim.
You know him, right?
Then, I suppose Minhyung is there too?
No. He's not there.
What are you doing?
Let's drop by.
I haven't seen Jungah in a long time too.
Let's go.
As I get older,
I hear that I'm dull and sly.
Something about my gaze. I can't stand it.
I can't stand it, either.
Let's stop bashing each other.
-Hey, over here! -Hello.
-That was really fast. -Did you guys drink a lot?
-No. -No, we just started.
Hey!
You're disappointed that Yoojin isn't here, huh?
-Stop joking around. -I'm not joking. Seriously.
You want me to call Yoojin?
Jungah, shall we volunteer to be the bridge for the two lovers to meet tonight?
You want me to be a bridge now?
Forget it. That sucks.
Sorry. I was just blabbing nonsense out of frustration. Okay?
Let's drink.
imagine how stunned he was when they took all the newspapers he had to sell.
Even I was stunned.
Yoojin, you came.
This isn't a prank.
- She really said she wasn't coming right? - Yes.
Sanghyuk, long time no see. Have a seat, both of you.
Hello.
You should've told us you were coming. I thought you weren't coming.
Yeah. We thought you weren't coming.
It's okay. I suggested we come.
Oh, I see.
I should get going now.
I just dropped by to wish you guys a safe trip tomorrow.
-I see. -So soon? Why?
That's not necessary, Lee Minhyung.
If you're leaving because of us, we should be the ones to leave.
Let's go, Yoojin.
Why…
Why are things so complicated? Goodness.
I know.
Sanghyuk!
How long are you going to lie to me?
How long are you going to hurt me?
What?
I bet you would have had a blast tonight if it weren't for me.
Why didn't you just tell me? I would have just let you go!
I never lied to you.
I didn't know Minhyung would be there.
Why would I lie about something so obvious?
Then, what was yesterday?
Why'd you meet Minhyung yesterday?
That's because...
I had to return something.
Didn't you have anything to return to him today?
If I weren't here, you would have met him again to return something to him, right?
Sanghyuk.
- How could you! - You don't like me saying this, right?
You don't like it that I can't trust you, right?
I hate it too! I really hate it, too!
I almost quit my job because I was in so much pain.
Do you think my feelings for you are a joke?
All I need is you but am I not enough for you?
ls that it?
It's not like that.
Sanghyuk!
