[ Alarm: 6:00 a.m. ]
[ Episode 81 ]
Oh, right.
I'm suspended.
Officer Kim, what are you doing? Hurry up and let's go!
Officer Kim, they want us to look for a kitten.
They said the breed is Russian Blue or something. Go find it.
You finished the report to submit to Yeongdeungpo Station, right?
Make me a copy. Thank you.
Gosh...
I'm going through withdrawal symptoms from Yeouido Station.
It should be running smoothly without me, right?
Work hard, everyone.
Gosh, Jin Woo. Come out already.
Can't you hear my voice? Geez.
Jin Woo, save me. I'm in a rush.
How could a man take such a long shower?
Gosh. Oh, Unni!
Tell Jin Woo to hurry up and come out.
Hurry up and come out! You moron.
Oh, Father, I'm sorry.
Sorry, Yeon Ah.
- Sorry doesn't cut it. - Sorry's not good enough.
- Geez. - Who's next in line?
What does it matter who's next?
What's important is who's in more of a rush.
I'm more in a rush. I'm going first.
No, no, Yeon Ah.
I'm telling you I'm in a rush. No.
No. Dad!
Dad! You can't do this! I was here first!
Come out!
I'm warning you. If you're going to take that long, go to a bathhouse.
Gosh, really...
- Gosh... - Yeon Ah, are you okay?
Should I install another bathroom?
Don't talk to me.
Hurry up and come out.
Dad!
What a fuss so early in the morning.
Oh, sorry.
I thought there'd be at least one more bathroom in the house.
What did you say?
You've got to be kidding...
Hush, hush.
You'll wake Cheong Ah up.
Starting tomorrow,
I'll go to a bathhouse as Father said. All good?
Starting tomorrow?
You'll still be here tomorrow?
Says who?
How could you be so shameless when you can clearly see
how stressed out the whole family is?
Mom. Can I help with anything?
Leave it.
How could you help when you can't even make soup?
Gosh, still.
Should I set the table?
Aigoo. You do feel bad after all, huh?
Gosh. I'm the only one who feels bad.
He's having a ball.
Yeah. He does look like he's having a ball all by himself.
After being through thick and thin,
I feel for him rather than feel pitiful toward him.
What do you mean you feel for him?
Don't put in too much effort. He doesn't deserve it.
Just make him what we usually eat.
I figured if I set the table like I did yesterday, we'd go broke,
so I'm making what we usually have. Spicy beef stew.
- What? - Huh?
Well...
He doesn't like spicy beef stew.
He doesn't eat bracken.
Gosh, really...
I thought I heard it all.
Right?
No.
I'm not talking about him who won't eat bracken,
but rather you pointing that out.
Really. Aigoo.
Anyway, when will you send him away? Should I do it?
No. I'll make him leave today. For sure.
Gosh.
Honey.
Seol Ah.
What are you doing? Aren't you going to eat?
Huh?
Oh, I'm going to eat.
Wow. It hits the spot!
Oh, this is bracken from Jeju Island. So delicious.
As always, mom's special spicy beef stew is the best.
How come you're not eating, Jin Woo?
Huh?
Oh, I'm going to eat.
I'm going to eat up without leaving any leftovers.
My motto is to always
eat Mother's food until the very last grain and drop
without leaving any leftovers.
If you don't like spicy beef stew,
should I quickly whip up an egg soup or something?
Oh, yeah, come to think of it,
how come you're not touching the stew?
You don't eat spicy beef stew?
No, Father. I love spicy beef stew.
Especially this Jeju Island bracken. This.
Wow, so delicious.
Right? Wow...
This Jeju Island bracken makes
the flavor of spicy beef stew.
Is it all right?
Huh? Yeah.
What do you mean?
You go ahead and eat, too.
Would it be all right if I have another bowl, Mother?
Yeah.
Honey, fix him another bowl with a lot of brackens.
Thank you, Mother.
Really hits the spot.
How did you sleep?
If you're uncomfortable, I'll give you a different room.
I think I better leave, Chairwoman.
I'll start looking for a studio apartment near the office today.
Me aside,
I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable, Chairwoman.
You sound so relaxed.
I'm in the middle of the war.
And you're my rifle.
I haven't even fired you once. Where do you think you're going?
Once Jin Woo comes back,
I better show him my firm will.
Then, I'll sleep in a different room.
I think Vice-chairman will be really angry if he sees me.
Did you hear me?
I brought you in to make him angry.
I have to show him that I'm as angry as him, in one fell swoop.
Sit down.
Let me repeat myself.
We're on a battlefield, and you're my weapon.
Stay put as I brandish you until I cut off the enemy's head.
So the word gets to that house.
Aren't you uncomfortable?
How come you're already dressed?
Be comfortable.
That's how you win.
Then, starting tomorrow, I'll get ready for work after breakfast.
- I'm sorry. - Wait a second.
Why do it yourself when there's help?
Have a seat.
Yes.
Ms. Lee, bring her a new knife.
And...
call me Mother at home.
Especially in front of Jin Woo and that woman.
- Make sure of it. - Pardon?
Yes...
Try it.
Try calling me Mother.
Yes.
Mother.
Let's eat.
How come you're still here?
I have to pay my respects to Father and Mother before I go.
I'm an educated person.
Your leaving would be paying your respects.
And the real respect you have to pay is saying goodbye.
Don't come back here after work.
Like an educated person.
Saying goodbye?
I can pay my respects in every other way, but not that.
If I were to say goodbye to Father and Mother, I would've never come here.
And, if I were to say goodbye to you, I wouldn't have woken up.
Huh?
Why haven't you left for work yet?
I'll give you a ride, Father, Mother.
Mother first since you're closer,
then Father and finally Yeon Ah.
- That's great. It's so cold out. - Score!
Why get a lift from a busy person when we can walk?
I'm not busy, Mother.
And even if I were,
nothing is more important than taking my family to places safely.
- Let's go. - All right. Let's go.
Let's go.
Make sure you send him home today.
I got it. I'm sorry.
Gosh, really...
What are you doing?
Packing.
He's leaving?
He won't leave, so I better send him off.
What are you up to?
I was going to iron.
Why don't you just drop it off at the dry cleaners?
I'm going to do it myself.
I'm going to smooth out every crease with my hands.
All right. Smooth it out all you want.
- I'll bring you the iron. - Okay.
So, you'll keep going to the station?
Yeah. I better go, since I keep hearing
the walkie-talkies.
Gosh. I better go in and clean the place at least.
After being unemployed for ten years, I love working so much.
Me, too.
After not working for ten years, I'm so happy now.
I don't have to struggle underwater like a swan.
I couldn't listen to your radio show much since I was working.
I'll start tuning in today.
Monitor which section is the most fun.
I heard the Chef Moon Tae Rang section is the hottest.
It's not that the section is hot. The person is hot.
He looks like the type lots of women would go after.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
But his heart is even more genuine.
People probably don't know that, right?
How do you know?
Something happened.
I saw him at Captain's house on New Year's Day to eat rice cake soup.
He's so friendly and thoughtful.
That was my first impression, anyway.
I see...
Are you finished, Father?
I'm done eating.
What are you doing?
I'll make you scorched rice soup. Have some of that, at least.
I'm good. Leave it.
There's a new hotel next to the supermarket.
Have you been there?
Of course.
And the sauna in the basement of the bakery?
That place shut down.
Hyung.
Have you tried calling that noona?
Hae Rang's friend who got married last year and lives in Ilsan.
I did, but they haven't met since she got married.
Then where could she have slept?
She didn't go to a hotel or a sauna. Not even a friend's place.
Don't worry too much, Father.
She'll be at work today, so I'll meet her.
She'll show up to work, right?
I'm sure she will.
Then, calm her down and bring her home.
- Don't push too hard. - Yes.
It weighs on my mind that I slapped her.
Aigoo, you rascal.
Why are you breaking my heart so much?
[ Inter Market ]
Moon Hae Rang!
Hello.
I'm sorry, but could I speak with my sister briefly?
It won't take too long.
About what?
It's personal.
Is it about Ms. Moon running away from home?
Pardon?
Oppa. Let's talk later.
I'll come to Sohwakhaeng later.
Then, tell me where you are staying, at least.
Later. I said later.
Don't you know Father's worried about you day and night?
Tell me right now.
Where are you staying? Why can't you tell me?
My house.
- Excuse me? - Did you not understand what I said?
Ms. Moon will be staying at my house for the time being.
What do you mean...
It's inconvenient to pick me up every morning anyway,
so I told her to just stay at my house.
Don't worry and let your father know.
That she's staying at my house comfortably.
Are you serious?
- Yes. - You really...
Later, please, Oppa.
Why don't you finish talking to him then come up?
I'll go up first.
Why are you doing this in front of everyone?
Pack up and leave that house now.
- I won't. - Moon Hae Rang.
You heard what Chairwoman said.
I'm staying at that house comfortably.
I'm happy with how things are now. I'm comfortable.
How could you be comfortable?
Everything.
I don't stress every morning about four family members
pathetically sharing one bathroom.
At every mealtime, the meals are prepared.
If I drop my spoon while eating, the help brings me a new one.
I don't have to lift a finger.
There's nothing uncomfortable at that house.
What else?
That's what you call comfortable? Over those things?
Have you ever experienced that much even once?
What did you say?
Chairwoman's good to me.
She told me to call her "Mother" at home. Got it?
What about him?
Is he like that, too?
As far as I know, he only loves his wife.
There's no room for you to squeeze into.
I know.
You know, and you're saying that?
You just found out, didn't you, Oppa?
I knew it from the very beginning.
Plus, I don't have anywhere else to go.
You said so, Oppa.
"I'll pretend you died.
Don't you dare think about ever coming back."
You know what?
I was mad at first,
but I soon felt at ease.
Moon Hae Rang,
the daughter of Moon Joon Ik and sister of Moon Tae Rang,
died in the ICU back then.
And now I can live out my life for real.
Having left home,
I'm standing on the edge of a cliff.
I'm not coming back.
I'm never coming back.
I understand.
If that's what you think, I don't need to try anymore.
I won't come looking for you or contact you.
And I'm saying this so that you don't misunderstand.
I did this today for Father's sake.
He's anxious to know if you're dead or alive,
or if you slept on the streets.
I have to let him know about how you're doing, that's why I'm doing this.
But if you're going to be like this...
All right.
Don't ever come back.
I don't need you if you're going to be like this.
[ Faith Broadcasting Station ]
"A Man Who Cooks For You," Chef Moon Tae Rang is here with us.
Hello.
Yes, hello.
You've heard of social dining, right, Chef Moon?
Yes. I've heard of it.
It's a simple meet-up where people share a meal and part ways.
But the interesting thing is
that the name of this gathering of strangers
is "Home-cooked Rice."
What are the connotations of home-cooked rice?
What are you doing?
Oh, yes.
Well, when you share a meal,
you engage in a conversation.
You talk about what happened, gossip about others,
get consoled...
To share a meal
means more than filling up your stomach
and eating food together.
Perhaps people are getting together because they miss those things.
Your section ended a while ago.
How come you're still here?
Oh, well...
I'll leave first.
Oh, okay.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Were you waiting for me?
Ms. Moon will be staying at my house for the time being.
Do you have something to tell me?
What's up with the carrier?
Are you going somewhere?
I'm not going anywhere.
I'm trying to send him home.
Sending him home?
A carrier?
He...
I mean...
my ex-husband insisted on staying at my house,
- so I'm sending him back. - At your house?
Are you saying he's staying at your house right now?
Chef Moon, did you eat something wrong?
You surprised me.
What's wrong? People might misunderstand.
I'm sorry.
Did you start speaking casually behind my back?
No.
Something's off...
It can't be that you've developed
a strange relationship in the meantime, right?
Gosh, no...
I have...
a one-sided crush on her.
As you can see, Announcer Kim Seol Ah
clearly doesn't.
Really?
I don't think so.
I'm single over here.
Why do you like divorcée?
Chef Moon.
Be honest.
You're joking, right?
I'm not joking.
I can't be so forward as to love her,
but I'm going to love her platonically, like a fool.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
"Pure and mental love that ignores the physical"?
"Pure and strong form of love
that is non-sexual"?
Is this your conclusion?
It suits you so well.
Gosh, should I be happy about this or be offended?
I have to work,
and you're there next to me.
And the owner of that carrier is next to you.
What am I supposed to do in this situation?
I have to become a saint or a pilgrim.
That's the only way.
Platonic love?
I haven't heard this since middle school.
I'll be in it all by myself.
I didn't say it to draw your attention, so don't worry about it like now.
Yeah.
I have too much to worry about besides you anyway.
So, how's your sister?
I heard she got a one-month suspension.
Yeah.
Well, I feel relieved that it was resolved.
I'm sorry.
That I unintentionally let your father know.
No.
I should've let him know long ago.
About your sister and you.
He must be in a big shock,
so let's make sure he doesn't find out about me.
Moon Hae Rang,
the daughter of Moon Joon Ik and sister of Moon Tae Rang,
died in the ICU back then.
Don't worry.
I'm okay now.
I'm really okay.
Hello, ma'am.
How have you been?
Yes. We're always the same.
What brings you here?
- This... - Ms. Lee, is someone here?
What brings you here without a word?
Why are you here?
Thanks to you.
Don't you remember?
What you did to my dad and my brother.
How is that related to why you're here?
How could I stay at home?
When they've seen the worst of me.
I took this opportunity to ditch my family and came here to
live a good life, like you-know-who.
Why? I'm not allowed?
What did you say?
You're really out of your mind, aren't you?
I knew you had no conscience,
but are you blind now?
Does he know what you're doing?
Of course.
That's why he's at your house after ditching his mother.
Ms. Lee.
Please see the guest out and take his carrier to the second floor.
What should I do with the carrier, ma'am?
Put it in his dressing room.
Here's your meal.
Bon appetit.
I didn't really want to come here,
but apparently, Yeon Ah's a fan of yours.
She really wants to eat your food. I can do takeout, right?
Let's see. Father, Mother, Seol Ah, Cheong Ah, Yeon Ah...
Please pack up five servings.
Should I leave out Seol Ah's?
She's probably sick of eating it.
Please wait just a moment.
By the way, didn't Seol Ah come with you?
How come you keep saying, "Seol Ah, Seol Ah?"
Wait, didn't you two plan to meet up?
What are you talking about?
Seol Ah said she was returning your carrier today.
If she didn't come to the office to meet you,
she must've gone to your house,
and Hae Rang is there.
What did you say?
Put that down.
Don't order me around.
Put it down right now.
Who do you think you are?
You and I are both in someone else's room.
At least, I'm here with Mother's permission.
What? "Mother?"
Why? I thought you hated this house.
I thought you were sick and tired of Mother.
Unlike you, I have a good relationship with Mother.
What are you doing now, after you've dumped him?
If you're going to dump him, do it once and for all.
Rather than holding on to him half-way.
And you think you can hang onto him?
Do you think he'll go to you if I let go?
Why do you think I've never had him?
We dated for two whole years behind your back.
What?
Every time I saw him, it felt like we were dating. It was thrilling.
Imagining you wearing the earrings I bought.
I felt so gratifying.
You never knew, huh?
That we were wearing the same earrings.
I threw out those earrings long ago,
but I guess you've still been wearing them.
Take the bed I used to use.
Take my vanity.
But I cannot give my ex-husband to a piece of trash like you.
I don't want him, but you can't have him either.
I'll make sure that doesn't happen.
You won't even greet me now, huh?
I figured you wouldn't want a greeting I don't mean.
And even if I did, you'd say something negative.
What?
How audacious of you.
Look at you on your high horse, with Jin Woo on your side.
No. It's not because I have him on my side.
I'm not scared of you because I want to get him off my back.
Geez. Is that right?
Then, leave the carrier and leave.
I don't want to. I won't do it.
What? You won't do it?
You don't want to?
Tell her to leave first.
Then, I'll return Jin Woo's carrier.
Do you even know what kind of a person you've let in?
Should I tell you how pathetic she is?
Do you think I'm as bad as you, who married for money?
What did you say?
You're the one who cut ties between a parent and her child.
Thanks to you, Jin Woo's about to get fired.
Mother is about to fire her son with her own two hands.
Is she telling the truth?
What if it's true?
What could you do about it even if it were true?
How could you do that?
Who am I that you're willing to fire your son over me?
If you want him to avoid that,
send Jin Woo home from your house. Right now.
Send away this horrible girl from your home first.
Then, I'll return your son to you.
First, leave the carrier and go.
I can't do that.
You can't? You can't?
Give it to me. Let go!
How dare you?
Why are you doing this?
Let go, Mother!
Mother? Mother? Who's your mother?
Don't you dare call me Mother!
Stop it, Mother!
You'll get hurt, Mother!
Seol Ah!
Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?
Look at me, Seol Ah.
Hey, Do Jin Woo.
Can't you see me?
You don't see your mother, you ungrateful child!
What are you doing there?
Get up already.
I fell.
She pushed me, and I fell down.
I can tell exactly what happened. What in the world are you doing?
How dare you lay a finger on her without my permission?
What did you say?
How could you say that to your mother?
Hey, you.
If she and I were drowning at the same time,
who would you rescue first?
Okay, if you're drowning, I'll rescue you first.
But now, I have to save myself first.
Seol Ah, let's go.
Fetch your carrier.
Huh?
Yeah.
Hey. Hey.
Hey, Do Jin Woo!
You ungrateful SOB!
Gosh...
I gave birth to that punk and had seaweed soup afterward.
Gosh, so annoying...
The best way to prevent respiratory diseases is...
Nowadays, everyone's wearing masks.
People don't look at each other's faces.
When you make eye contact, they're busy looking away.
Aigoo, we live in a world where we can't even cough freely.
You're right.
You can only trust people.
Yet we live in a world where people distance each other.
Gosh...
Aren't you disappointed now that Jin Woo has left?
Disappointed? Geez.
Who?
I'm so relieved that I don't have to see him tonight.
Honestly,
I couldn't say it because of Seol Ah, but we were so uncomfortable.
-I'm back! - What's this?
What's going on?
Father, Mother. Your son-in-law is here.
Look at her...
Wait. What happened?
You didn't go home?
And how come Seol Ah's turning such a cold shoulder?
Oh, that's...
It's a complicated situation.
I'll give you the details later.
I'll be going upstairs, then.
What?
Is he really thinking of parting ways with his mom?
How dare you shamelessly come here after letting her into your house?
Thanks to you, Jin Woo's about to get fired.
What'll do if you really get fired?
I'll make sure that I don't get fired.
How?
You're at your ex-wife's house, running away from your old mistress.
One must never cheat.
The label follows you for life.
Gosh. I really, really, really want to take it off.
Gosh, if you had any hair, I would've grabbed on already.
Grab on.
Grab it.
Just grab it whole. Grab onto it. Yank it.
Don't you have any shame?
No.
There's no space for shame inside here.
It's full of something else.
Geez...
- A friend from work? - Oh, yes.
She has a close friend from work.
Since it's close to the Chairwoman's house,
she insisted that she stay there
and I got mad and told her to do so.
Okay.
Now that we know where she is,
let her be.
Let's see how long she keeps this up.
What an ungrateful child.
Still, she'll come back, right?
Even if it's a close friend, she must feel bad and uncomfortable.
Of course, Father.
It might not be right away, but she'll come back.
She may not come back, Father.
And even if she does come back,
I don't know if you'll be able to accept her.
[ Episode 82 ]
Did you deep clean the kitchen?
Yes. It's clean, right?
If it were me, I would've taken this opportunity to rest.
You're hardcore all right, Officer Kim.
Hey.
You startled me.
Oh, you're here.
Are you allowed to come here while you're suspended?
I can't handle cases. Just busywork like this.
So? Tell me about your meeting with the lawyer.
What did the lawyer say?
To request a retrial, there has to be definite evidence or the real culprit,
but he's frustrated that all we have is my claim.
He says the same thing every day.
He's like a voice recorder.
I wish we had the incident report, at least.
Where would I find that?
[ Moon Joon Ik ]
Captain.
What happened?
Are you injured?
It's nothing.
I misstepped and sprained my foot a little.
How did that happen?
He seems distracted these days.
Are you worried about something?
There's nothing like that.
You are worried. It's written all over your face.
What about the hospital?
Did you go to the hospital?
I told you it's not that bad.
It'll be better once I go home and do an ice bath.
So stubborn...
Then go home.
Instead of worrying a bunch of people.
Kang Shi Wol.
- You have a motorcycle, right? - Yeah.
Why?
Give the Captain a ride home.
I'll pick up some medicine and be right there.
Me?
Yeah. Would I then?
- On your motorcycle? - I said, I'm okay.
Aigoo.
Captain.
You're not okay.
What are you doing? Help him.
Hurry.
Gosh...
You better come.
- Geez. - Be careful, Captain.
Drive carefully.
Okay.
Are you okay? Are you okay, Dad?
Shouldn't we go to the hospital?
I sprained it lightly.
Don't worry.
Hey, youngest.
Stop with the chatter and step aside.
Yes.
Ahjussi! Be careful.
Ahjussi? You little...
Gosh. He was so heavy.
Why is your dad so heavy?
You're here to help me, right?
I'm here to help Officer Kim, not you.
Don't delude yourself.
Aigoo.
You just have to talk like that, Mr. Kang Shi Wol.
You've gotten better, though. You're not talking down.
Gosh, really...
Hey.
Stop meddling and go get ice.
And a towel, too.
Aigoo. It's so swollen.
Why were you so distracted that
a superintendent like you misstepped?
Right?
So embarrassing in front of my juniors.
Gosh, a cop's room and my room both,
we lack things all the same.
You must be a super upright cop.
What did you do your whole life?
Nevertheless, I raised three kids on a cop's salary.
Oh, by the way.
Did you get the incident records?
Incident records?
- No. - Huh?
I gave it to Officer Kim a few days ago.
You gave it to her?
She hasn't said anything.
We've met, right?
Are you here to see Hae Rang?
That chewed gum's name is Hae Rang?
And this is her house?
Chewed gum?
She was calling you "oppa," and you really are her brother.
Why did you come to our house?
And that heavy boss man is her dad?
You brought our father home?
Brought him home? I carried him here.
Go inside.
He just fell asleep.
I think this happened because of Hae Rang.
Pa Rang.
Could you bring the first aid kit and more ice?
Yeah.
That person outside is no joke.
He's scary.
- Hey, youngest. - Pardon?
You're handsome.
Good thing you don't take after your dad.
My dad's handsome if you look closely.
He's the likable type, really.
Likable type? Geez.
They do say blood is thicker than water.
How is he a likable type?
How sad for people without family.
We may share drinking water, but we don't share blood.
Huh?
Isn't he your biological dad?
Why is biology so important?
He's just my dad. Hae Rang, too.
She's done well all this time.
Thank you. For bringing Father home.
He's asleep now. You can leave.
I'll leave in a little bit.
I'm waiting for someone.
Pardon?
Oh, she's here.
What took you so long?
Everyone had to get dispatched all of a sudden.
- Hello. - Oh, welcome.
I was wondering who's coming.
How's Captain?
Father's fine. Don't worry.
By the way, I heard you've been reporting to the station.
Yes. I'm doing what I can to help since I've done so many wrong things.
Hey.
He's asleep. Let's just go.
I'm so hungry.
You leave first, then.
What?
Am I a delivery man? Leaving right after delivery?
You should pay me for my service. Buy me dinner.
Then eat before you go. I'll fix something quickly.
- Huh? - Is that okay?
Of course. I'll cook for you every day if I have to.
Thank you. I'll lend a hand.
Come this way.
Gosh, who's this now?
I said you don't need to take me home.
Why insist?
You have to go back to get your motorcycle. What a hassle.
So you should've just hopped on.
Why did you insist on walking?
When it's so cold.
Anyway.
Thanks to you, I got here safely and uncomfortably.
So, go now.
D*** it.
You always tell me to go, Officer Kim.
Once we find the real culprit,
let's hunt him down on my motorcycle.
You better hop on then.
Yeah?
You still won't hop on then?
Are you scared of motorcycles?
No.
I'm scared of the motorcycle you're driving.
Happy?
I'm cold. Go already.
Fine. I'm going. I'm going.
I heard you got the incident records from your boss.
Why didn't you tell me?
I was so caught up with the disciplinary committee.
I forgot.
When will you give it to me?
- Should we look at it now? - Huh?
It's at the station.
Yeah?
Did you find anything?
Something's off, huh?
Cheong Ah.
Joon Hwi.
What? Is something wrong?
Why the long face?
Well, Captain was slightly injured,
so we're on our way from taking him home on Shi Wol's motorcycle.
Officer Kim.
Why are you walking on eggshells?
Is it because of him?
Why you didn't ride on my motorcycle?
Can't you see?
It would've been bad if I rode on your motorcycle.
Go already.
See you next time.
Whatever.
Why did you walk?
You should've ridden on the motorcycle.
I should've.
I felt like...
somebody might be really upset if I rode on it.
Remember him?
The person who got upset about a blanket.
You won't get mad today, right?
You walked together for 30 minutes when it could've taken five minutes.
What are you talking about?
From now on, hop on.
I'll think of him as a paramedic.
Really?
I'm kidding.
Do what you want to do.
I won't get mad.
You said you had something to tell me.
What is it?
You said you needed to say it.
Don't babble nonsense to Joon Hwi.
It may be okay for you to hurt me,
but please do not hurt my son.
Thanks to you,
my heart's already being torn to shreds.
What is it?
I lied so that we can spend time together.
It's getting cold.
Why aren't you drinking it?
So, what are we going to do tomorrow?
Huh?
Tomorrow, I have a prior engagement.
Let's see each other on Sunday.
You have a prior engagement.
I guess I can't see you tomorrow.
I'm so happy.
You said sports marketers don't have weekends, right?
Since important games take place on weekends.
By the way,
why did you become a sports marketer while studying law?
Because of Joon Gyeom.
He said his dream was to become a basketball player like Michael Jordan.
Mom and I thought his dream was to become a judge.
That's why I changed my career path.
I kept thinking about him again and again.
I thought about him every day.
And that was the only thing I could do.
It's similar to why you became a police officer.
I hope Joon Gyeom likes that
I became a policewoman and
that you're nurturing athletes.
Yeah.
[ First Female Supreme Court Chief Justice Hong Yoo Ra, Will the Glass Ceiling of Law Shatter? ]
I want to find out if your mom
framed me or will
vindicate me.
[ Incident Report ]
Bring me the evidence.
The law deals with proof, not impressions.
No...
No, don't tell Joon Hwi...
Cheong Ah...
Cheong Ah, please don't tell him. Don't tell...
The car Joon Gyeom was driving.
Whose car was it?
Were you just a witness, or were you in the car with him that day?
Mom, it's me.
Yeah.
Come in.
It's past eight, and you're still asleep.
Did you take sleeping pills because you couldn't sleep?
Huh?
Oh, no.
Don't take it.
Please, Mom.
Should we have breakfast together?
Come out. I'll wait for you.
Should we go exercise together after breakfast?
Should we play tennis or indoor golf?
Next time.
Next time, Joon Hwi.
There's no tomorrow for us, Mom.
Do not postpone today's exercise to tomorrow.
Why are you acting out of character?
Let's exercise together next weekend.
All good?
Mom.
Supreme Court Chief Justice.
Do you really want to do it?
You're ambitious about work, but not about status.
Regardless of what I want, people expect things from me.
I didn't want to hear people say I come from
a wealthy family and that I'm a woman,
so I dug deeper into my work.
But there's always "first" attached to my name.
So, I want to be responsible for the rulings I've been making.
It's not something that I can do because I want to,
and stop because I want to.
And I want to put a proper period to the work that
I've been doing according to my convictions.
Why?
You don't like it?
I'm afraid they'll shake you clean from head to toe.
What?
Not you, me.
Hearings and all, they ground you up the moment you appear.
I'm sure they'll have nothing on you,
but I lived however I wanted,
so I'm scared of what will turn up.
Why didn't you search Judge Hong Yoo Ra's car?
Isn't it strange that only her car was excluded here, Detective Lee?
Gosh, how could I search a judge's car?
It might be different nowadays,
but when I was a police officer...
Never mind.
So you didn't search her car because she's a judge?
Why do you have to say it like that?
Hoobae, that's not what I'm saying.
Oh, look here.
A cigarette butt was discovered.
As soon as the investigation began, the culprit was caught.
You didn't focus the investigation around the cigarette butt from the beginning?
He could've just thrown it out while driving by that day.
Aigoo.
Do you believe a car thief or an informant who's a judge?
Who do you think saved that elderly woman?
Who would make a report after hitting a person?
She said to search at any time.
She agreed to a lie detector test.
By the way,
why is a station cop dredging up a case of mine?
I had to stand trial because of that punk.
I'm sorry.
Kang Shi Wol says that he's been wronged. That he's been framed.
What? He's been framed?
He feels wronged?
Gosh, really.
The elderly woman is crying from her grave.
Had he paid the settlement,
she wouldn't have been kicked out of the hospital.
Ultimately,
he killed that elderly woman.
By chance,
do you know where her resting place is?
I don't know that far...
Wait a second.
I remember getting a phone call from a nursing hospital in Paju.
Asking us to look for her grandson since she's on the brink of death.
Grandson?
[ Me ]
Hello?
It's me. What are you up to?
Just lazing around at home.
Since my boyfriend has a prior engagement and won't see me.
What about you, Joon Hwi?
I'm picking out flowers.
Flowers?
For whom?
No need to get all nervous.
Don't worry.
It's for a very old woman.
A very old woman?
What kind of flower will you buy?
I'm not sure.
White flowers?
Will you pick out flowers for me?
I came to the florist,
and my mind went blank.
White flowers...
Lilies?
There are also calla lilies,
forget-me-nots, and hyacinths, too...
Who are you meeting?
Where are you going?
I'll tell you when I'm back.
Then...
get calla lilies, Joon Hwi.
Calla lilies?
Okay.
I'll call you when I'm back.
What's he doing going there by himself?
He should've asked me to come with him.
If you have to decide between being correct and being kind,
choose to be kind.
It's a line from the movie "Wonder."
In the film, a kid named Auggie was born with a facial deformity
and lived hiding behind a helmet.
What helped Auggie take off his helmet and face the world
was not right and wrong,
but the kindness of those around him.
Did someone ever visit the elderly woman?
According to our convictions,
we make our choices when facing the truth.
We may not know what's right,
but as long as we make a kind choice,
at least, we won't be hurting somebody.
Joon Gyeom.
It's not you, right?
This accident...
You didn't cause it, right?
Sir, please hurry.
[ Park Kkeut Soon ]
Joon Gyeom...
Corporal Koo Joon Hwi!
Why not play a game of basketball with your little brother!
Wanna die?
It's my last wish.
Get out.
Today is my birthday, Hyung.
A gift. Nothing again, huh?
Birthdays come every year.
I'll get you one next year. All good?
For sure, next year.
Geez!
Do not postpone today's birthday to tomorrow.
There is no tomorrow for us, Hyung.

♫ Of this path that has been decided for me ♫
♫ My footsteps feel so heavy ♫
♫ This path has gone uphill blankly ♫
♫ I've closed my eyes, I'm lost ♫
♫ There's only one streetlight shining ♫
♫ But not even that light reaches this place ♫
♫ It's overwhelming, vacantly ♫

♫ I'm trying to go out again ♫
♫ Though I'll look back as I get farther away ♫
♫ I'm walking on the path I must go on in front of me ♫
♫ The path I must go on ♫
♫ Now knowing how far I've come ♫
♫ I'm stammering as I go forth ♫
[ Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life ]
Must I see her in front of my house?
Are you doing this intentionally?
- Goodbye. - Goodbye, my foot.
- Mom. - Follow me in.
Why don't we have dinner together?
Let's wrap up our meeting here.
What is it that both sides are paging him simultaneously?
- He lives at Hana Village. - Hana Village?
- Could it be... - Royal family?
You want to fire me?
You think that's possible?
Let's say one of us leaves for sure.
Let's see how far we can go.
Whether you'll be fired or me.
