[gentle music playing]
[door opens]
[Eun-ok] Oh, hi there.
You must be Ji-uk, right?
Geum-duk's grandson.
Yes.
[chuckles] I'm Eun-ok.
Hmm... You can call me
"Auntie, Mom, Eun-ok" or "Mrs. Lee".
Whichever you prefer.
Just not "Grandma".
Grandma...
Uh...
No, I mean my grandma. Geum-duk.
[chuckling]
Grandma said...
that this was an orphanage.
Ah, goodness sake.
[clicks tongue]
I told her this wasn't an orphanage.
And why does she call you that?
You're not an orphan.
[chuckles] Let's go on in.
[grunts]
[gentle music continues]
Wait a minute.
[deep breath]
[Eun-ok] Welcome home, son.
Thank you for coming here.
[Eun-ok chuckles]
[Eun-ok breathes deeply]
Everything around the house
will be so much easier
now that you're here. [chuckles]
Oh, by the way,
Ji-uk, can you keep a secret at all?
-I'm pretty good... at keeping promises.
-Mm.
Then, um, can you promise me something?
What is it?
I have a daughter.
Her name is Son Hae-yeong.
[chuckles] She can never know about this,
no matter what.
The fact that you're staying here.
Uh...
doesn't she... live with you?
Mm...
If I'm putting you
in a difficult position,
-then...
-She probably won't come by.
But still, just in case she does...
you won't let her catch you, right?
Yeah.
That's a promise, okay?
[chuckles]
[Hae-yeong] Answer the question.
The Ji-uk written down here...
This Kim Ji-uk is you?
You lived here before?
Yes.
You were my mom's foster kid?
Yes.
Then did you know...
who I was then?
Yes.
I can explain.
[somber music playing]
Get lost.
Ma'am.
Get out of here, you disgust me.
-I'm sorry.
-What, are you deaf?
I said get out.
Can't you...
just be mad instead?
If you tell me to get lost...
where do I go then?
Then I'll just leave.
Ma'am, I kept it a secret
because I promised Mom
that I wouldn't tell you...
I mean, tell her daughter...
[sighs]
...that I was her foster child
no matter what.
Back then, I had no idea
I'd somehow end up with you.
I can understand why you're mad at me,
but she must've had her reasons.
[Hae-yeong sighs] "Had her reasons"?
How much of a selfish, evil b*tch
must I actually be...
that you'd keep this a secret?
That's not what I meant.
But do you know
who's really the selfish one?
It's Mom.
-My mom.
-Ma'am.
I never agreed to any of it.
Sharing a house
with all of these other kids,
fighting for the attention and love
she should've given to me.
Throughout my entire childhood,
I must've said it 100 times to her.
But she never listened, not even once.
[sighs] And that's how...
Hmm... and that's how my dad...
[sighs]
Still, I guess Mom didn't regret a thing.
Even though Dad's dead because of her.
So, how dare she...
[heavy exhale]
How dare she take you in after that?
[door opens]
[door closes]
What's that supposed to mean?
Why is it Mom's fault that your father...
What, she didn't tell you about that?
Ma'am...
[somber music playing]
-I'm going to the nursing home in Paju.
-All right.
[somber music continues]
-Ja-yeon.
-[gasps]
You know, don't you? How her dad died?
What?
Uh...
So, uh... [shaky breathing]
[Ji-uk]
You don't wanna talk about him, do you?
Mm-mm. In my house,
we don't speak about my dad.
Forget it.
[somber music continues]
Bro-in-law, were you
Mom's last foster child?
[deep breath]
Yeah.
I'm relieved.
That means Mom wasn't living
in this house all alone.
I'm so relieved.
Hae-yeong feels that way too.
She'll just need some time to realize it.
[deep breath]
Uh, sir, I'm so sorry...
but can we head back?
[driver] I thought you were going to Paju?
Well, it's too late.
Even if I saw her now...
I don't think
I'll get an answer out of her.
[pensive music playing]
[door bell jingles]
Yo!
-[friend 1] Oh, look who it is!
-[friend 2] Finally! Hey!
[friend 3] Oh, Yeo! Hey!
[friend 1] You sure took
your sweet time getting here.
[Ha-jun] Sorry I'm late.
Let me go say hi to our host.
-All right.
-Okay.
[indistinct chatter and laughter]
Yo! Hey, bro.
I can BYOB here, right?
No, get out.
Not only am I providing the venue
for this high school reunion,
I'm even donating my talent by cooking.
The least you can do is buy
a few bottles of booze while you're here...
[sparkling effect]
Oh! Oh, well,
I gotta say this changes things.
-[chuckles]
-Aw, Ha-jun.
Guess you're a pretty big deal
now that you're the whipping boy
to some CEO.
Go sit. I'll fetch some glasses.
[indistinct chatter]
[friend 3] Everyone, drink up, drink up!
-[whooping]
-[friends] Cheers!
[phone camera clicks]
I actually visited Garam High recently.
With who?
-Nam Ja...
-[friend 3] Oh, that guy?
Why that as*h*le?
No, Nam Ja-yeon.
She was a liberal arts kid,
but she transferred before third year.
-You remember her?
-Nam Ja-yeon?
Who was Ja-yeon again?
She's that girl, right?
Another family took her in?
[friend 1] It's not an orphanage.
What's it called again?
The term is foster care.
-Oh, you're right.
-[awkward chuckle]
Hey, now I definitely remember.
You know, years ago, I heard
there was a m*rder at that foster home.
A what?
Oh, well,
so the culprit's wife had run away,
and his daughter had been living
in that foster home.
The guy came looking for his daughter
and then went crazy
asking where her mom was.
That's Nam Ja-yeon, right?
[friend 1]
And that's why she switched schools.
When was that?
During our third year.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
[sighs]
Hey, if it happened then,
that's after she transferred.
Anywho, how could she keep living
in the house where her dad k*lled someone?
[friend 1] Tsk... Ah.
So, anyway, bro, is Nam Ja-yeon pretty?
[soft chuckle]
Well, bro...
she is why you're drinking this
in the first place.
[Ha-jun scoffs]
-Hey, cheers!
-[friends] Cheers!
-[friend 3] So happy to see you all here!
-[friend 2] Yeah!
[pensive music playing]
6 YEARS AGO
[Eun-ok] Ja-yeon.
Ma.
Didn't you miss me?
-Because I...
-[shaky breathing]
I... I missed you so much, sweetheart.
[gentle music playing]
I'm sorry.
Calling to blame you for what happened...
All those horrible things I said to you.
I think I'll regret it
until the day I die.
I'm sorry.
Can you forgive me, Ja-yeon?
No.
No, it's all my fault.
I'm the reason Mr. Son is dead.
You're not. That's ridiculous.
You're a victim as well.
I wasn't in my right mind back then.
It didn't matter who...
I was just looking
for someone to blame, okay?
It wasn't your fault.
No, it was.
All of it.
I'm sorry about everything.
[Eun-ok inhales sharply]
[Ja-yeon sobbing]
[Ja-yeon] I'm so sorry. [sobbing]
Please forgive me.
[Eun-ok] Ja-yeon, listen.
Your old ma, she's not doing well.
What?
I have a disease that makes me forget.
Which means...
all the bad memories will disappear.
Then only the good ones will remain.
Ma...
And then, it won't matter anymore.
Nobody will know
that b*stard was looking for you, Ja-yeon.
I didn't tell a soul.
Not even Hae-yeong.
My husband...
until the end, he insisted
that you, Ja-yeon...
would never become
the daughter of a m*rder*r.
[sobs]
[Eun-ok] Ja-yeon.
If nobody is able to remember it,
it never happened, right?
It never happened.
So just forget about it, all right?
Forget it.
[soft chuckle] It's okay to forget.
It wasn't your fault, okay?
[Ja-yeon] Hae-yeong,
back then,
I probably would've given anything...
-[Ja-yeon sobbing]
-[Eun-ok] It's okay.
...if I could've been sick instead of Mom.
Or if it had been me
who died in Mr. Son's place.
But this was the only thing I could do.
Hae-yeong!
If my sister doesn't know...
Hey, Hae-yeong.
It's me, Ja-yeon.
If she really doesn't know...
that it's my fault Mr. Son is gone...
Nam Ja-yeon?
...please don't let her find out.
[soft pensive music playing]
Long time no see.
How've you been doing?
[soft chuckle]
[deep inhale]
[door opens]
[gasps]
[door closes]
[sharp inhale]
[Ja-yeon] Hae-yeong.
I'm sorry.
Sorry for what?
[shaky breath]
That...
You didn't clean out the fridge?
-Huh?
-Do it tomorrow.
Mm.
[shaky breathing]
[Ja-yeon] Hae-yeong, I'll be good to you.
Just like Mr. Son was. Like Mom.
I promise I'll always take care of you.
So please... forgive me.
EPISODE 11
[line ringing]
[automated voice]
The number you're calling is unavailable.
Please leave a message after the tone.
[sighs]
[Gi-un] Ji-uk!
[Ji-uk] Oh, hey, dude.
So I have a quick favor to ask.
Could you see
if Team Leader Son is at work...
I missed you so much.
-Huh?
-How have you been?
Dude, we've been messaging
almost every day.
-Are we okay?
-[comical music playing]
Are we?
[soft chuckle]
[Asst. Manager Kim] Kim Ji-uk?
Oh, Ji-uk. Hi!
You quit your job,
so what's... going on with your face?
C'est ce terrible!
[Ms. Gong]
You look like you haven't slept in days.
[Asst. Manager Kim] That's right.
Quitting your job is like an elixir,
and divorce is the secret to eternal...
[grunts]
Are you...
here looking for Team Leader Son?
-Yes.
-I'm pretty sure she took the day off.
What?
[Ji-uk] Ah...
I see. I'll be going then.
Dude, see you later.
[Gi-un] Later?
[Gi-un sighs]
He may be divorced, but he still seems
pretty in love with her.
Gi-un, what do you think is going on here?
He wants to make up?
Could that be
why Team Leader Son's avoiding him?
What's wrong with Ji-uk though?
I mean, it's not
that there's anything wrong with Ji-uk.
If she gets remarried,
it should be to someone new.
One, two, three...
All right, Yeo, my buddies Park and Lee,
reach out to them at QT and UK Telecom.
See if there's a problem
with their cell towers.
Oh, and Kim
at O-gwang Electronics as well!
There must be
some kind of issue with phone data.
Yeo, answer me.
Yeo, why aren't you answering me?
Secretary Yeo!
Se...
-Secretary Yeo!
-[sighs]
What's the issue?
There's an issue with the cell towers
and mobile phones
-in this country...
-The real issue!
[panting]
It's just...
Nam Ja-yeon...
I think I made her angry.
You did? Surprising.
And now when I call her...
she won't pick up!
What do I do, Secretary?
-[sighs]
-[comical music playing]
Mr. President,
even if cell towers collapse
and their phone batteries explode,
people will always answer...
if you're their boo.
Hmm.
What does that mean? Huh?
Secretary Yeo!
[Gyu-hyun] Secretary Yeo!
Secretary Yeo!
The girl you're seeing
isn't answering the phone?
That means
she's no longer interested in you.
You're blocked!
Blocked?
Blocked?
[comical sting]
[comical music playing]
Lucifer, you too?
I called her 17 times.
I called her 29.
Ugh.
That's way too much!
More than ten... No...
even if it was five calls,
it's still creepy.
[dramatic sting]
Get out of here, you disgust me.
[sighs] Want my opinion?
You've reached the end.
-It's over for both of you.
-[dramatic sting]
This is our happy ending.
Say the words "end" and "ending" again,
and you'll be fired immediately.
The word "creep" is off-limits as well.
[animals snarling effect]
[light background music playing]
[deep inhale]
Lucifer,
what if you tried calling
Team Leader Son's mother?
[Ji-uk] I did, but...
[Gyu-hyun] Well, what if... maybe...
she's gone to where her father's buried?
So the one who died in that incident,
that was Team Leader Son's father?
What incident?
You didn't know?
Oh, I recently went
to a high school reunion
and saw a friend
who lived in that neighborhood.
What kind of incident was it?
[sighs] Well, Team Leader Son,
um, her parents...
you know they ran a foster home, right?
A foster kid's dad came
looking for his daughter...
and k*lled someone.
[pensive music playing]
[Hae-yeong]
Still, I guess Mom didn't regret a thing.
Even though Dad's dead because of her.
So how dare she...
[heavy exhale]
How dare she take you in after that?
[deep inhale]
So that's why... [sighs]
[sighs]
[gasps] President Bok, you call her.
Well, if you made the call, sir,
Team Leader Son would definitely answer.
Of course, she'd answer it, but...
Mr. President,
if you ask her where she is,
I'll call Ja-yeon for you
and find out if she's blocked your number.
-[sharp inhale]
-[comical music playing]
NEW BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT TEAM
TEAM LEADER SON HAE-YEONG
[line ringing]
-[Hae-yeong] This is Son Hae-yeong.
-Oh!
Hello?
[whispers] Come on, say something to her.
Team Lead... Manager Son...
where are you right now?
[Hae-yeong]
I'm not in the office today, sir.
I took the day off.
[Gyu-hyun]
And where did you go on your day off?
I had some business to tend to
out of town.
[whispers] Ask her what town?
Where are you right now?
[whispers] What town? Where she is?
The provinces? Whereabouts?
[Hae-yeong] Oh, I'm out in...
Wait, why do you ask?
Because I remembered
all the different breads I got to eat
at your place the other day,
and wondered
which you'd bring back with you.
This region isn't famous for its bread,
but its walnut cookies.
Walnut cookies?
[gasps]
[Gyu-hyun] I'll see you tomorrow then.
Don't forget the cookies.
Of course, see you tomorrow, sir.
Is he crazy?
[annoyed groan] Ugh, what a pain!
Okay, awesome.
Now, Lucifer,
you call Ms. Yeon and ask her where...
Drink this. It's really good.
Lucifer!
[comical music playing]
[Gyu-hyun] Lucifer!
Did he...
Secretary Yeo, fire him!
You want me to rehire then fire him again?
He doesn't work for you.
[sighs] sh*t.
[sentimental music playing]
[deep breath]
[sentimental music continues]
[sighs]
SPICE UP OUR LOVE
ADAPTATION SCRIPT
-[knocking on door]
-[soft gasp]
[Ja-yeon] Hui-seong, great timing.
The script for the audio drama is ready.
Want to go over it together?
Actually, that's what I'm here
to talk to you about.
I thought you should know
before I go and tell the company.
[deep inhale]
I'm sorry
but I have to back out of the project.
How come?
Min-ji, the writer...
she and Tae-hyeong broke up 'cause of me.
Out of guilt?
Or courtesy?
Besides, my morning sickness
is getting worse.
[light pensive music playing]
Then, are you saying...
Mm.
Tae-hyeong and I made the choice together.
I hope you support us.
I'll do all I can
to be there for you and Tae-hyeong.
But Hui-seong...
do you... believe?
In Tae-hyeong?
I mean in love.
Could anyone ever love me enough...
to look past the bad
and accept my faults?
Even if they did happen to learn...
about what I'm responsible for?
[Hui-seong] Ja-yeon.
Have you heard about
Schrödinger's cat experiment?
That thing in quantum mechanics
about whether...
the cat in the box is alive or dead?
Hmm... I know nothing about
quantum mechanics or what have you.
But...
what I do know is only someone
who believes that cat is alive
would open the box.
You'll only be able
to find someone like that
if you trust
that they're out there, Ja-yeon.
[phone buzzing]
Be right back.
HATER
[buzzing continues]
-[door closes]
-Yeah, I'm just leaving Ja-yeon's.
[soft chuckle] No need to wait.
I can get to the clinic by myself.
Besides, Baby,
what if you run into Hae-yeong?
Well, if I'm getting the crap
beat out of me no matter what,
better sooner rather than later, I guess.
-[door opens]
-[chuckles]
Uh, anyway,
I'll head over to the clinic later.
Mm.
See you there.
[ominous music playing]
What, you want to break up?
Even though you don't actually know
that it's your kid?
Min-ji...
[grunts]
[Producer Yun sighs]
That's it, keep going.
I bet you feel like
the white knight swooping in?
But don't kid yourself,
you're not doing this
because you love Hui-seong.
The only one you're in love with
is Tae-hyeong.
What a responsible guy you're being now.
You can hit me and insult me all you want,
but don't psychoanalyze me.
I'll be the one to say how I feel, okay?
[scoffs]
-You've made up your mind?
-Mm.
[Min-ji scoffs]
Of course you're sure right now.
Since you can't see the kid yet.
But what about after they're born?
[disgusted groan]
"They don't really take after me,
do they?"
"No kid of mine would ever do that."
Cho Min-ji.
You don't think
that thought will occur to you?
I guarantee you there isn't a single man
on earth who wouldn't have that thought.
And by the way, Tae-hyeong...
you... have never been that special.
[pensive music playing]
[deep, shaky breathing]
[birds chirping]
[Hae-yeong coughing]
[suspenseful music rising]
[both grunt]
Ma'am.
Are you okay?
What?
You know about this place?
-Oh, uh...
-Did you come here with Mom too?
[comical music playing]
Ow, my head.
If you wanna make a fire,
don't use wet wood.
It just makes a ton of smoke.
There's a place
that sells firewood nearby, so...
How did you know that I came here?
[sighs] It creeps me out.
I was worried about you.
If you aren't comfortable
with me being here...
then I'll go.
[sentimental music playing]
[Hae-yeong] Why is this place like this?
I thought she'd at least
have a diary lying around.
[Ji-uk] She said she wanted
to get rid of everything
before she checked into the nursing home.
The things in this house have been in use
since her mother was around.
So if she left them,
they'd just be a burden.
Why did Mom even come down here...
when she couldn't remember
anything anyway?
She'd been reading this book back then.
It said if the elderly move
somewhere they lived 20 years ago,
it slows down aging.
Mom thought that by living
in the home she grew up in,
her disease...
its progression might slow down.
While she was here,
Mom rewatched the TV shows
from when she was a kid,
and listened to old music too.
When I came to her...
the only reason she took me in
is 'cause my grandma asked her to.
And with Grandma...
you could never really tell her no.
So she didn't have a choice but to...
Does Mom still know who you are?
I'm sure she remembers
her last foster kid,
even if she forgot her own daughter.
I have something to show you.
The room, it should be nice and warm now.
Let's head in.
[Ji-uk] Mom, who'd you say this baby was?
[Eun-ok] My little girl, Hae-yeong.
[light pensive music playing]
Hae-yeong.
[soft chuckle]
I guess Mom liked me best
before I ever learned how to speak.
[Ji-uk] Mom, who'd you say this baby was?
[Eun-ok] My little girl, Hae-yeong.
[tapping on phone]
[Ji-uk] Mom, who'd you say this baby was?
[Eun-ok] My little girl, Hae-yeong.
[Hui-seong breathes deeply]
[Producer Yun chuckles]
Uh, if you take a look at this screen,
the black part right here
is the amniotic fluid.
[doctor] And the area
that looks white here is the baby.
And where my cursor is pointing at,
you can see it moving, right?
[both] Yes.
This is the baby's little heart.
Why don't we listen
to the baby's heartbeat?
[machine beeps]
-[heart beating]
-[deep breathing]
[both chuckle]
[chuckling]
[Min-ji] Of course you're sure right now.
Since you can't see the kid yet.
But what about after they're born?
[pensive music playing]
Hey, doc, when do we find out
if it's a boy or a girl?
-Oh, babe.
-[all chuckle]
You can confirm
the sex of the baby at 16 weeks.
[doctor] Whether it's a boy
who takes after his dad,
or a girl who takes after her mom.
"They don't really take after me,
do they?"
"No kid of mine would ever do that."
[Min-ji] You don't think
that thought will occur to you?
-[pensive music continues]
-[heart beating continues]
Aw, Hui-seong, you must be tired, hmm?
And thanks to your morning sickness,
you haven't eaten.
It's all right. I'm fine.
Is there anything you're craving? Hmm?
It's okay if you can't eat a lot of it,
I don't care.
But you really should eat something.
Mm-mm.
I just want to be home already.
Drop me off right over there.
Oh, pfft, of course I'm gonna drive you
all the way home, my lady.
But you need to go back to the studio
for a session.
Mm. Eh, nah...
It would really make me feel better
to see you eat something
before you go home after all that.
[chuckles]
[Hui-seong chuckles softly]
-Baby.
-Hmm?
Baby, stop the car.
Why? Are you nauseous?
Just stop the car.
[confused grunt]
[tense music playing]
Hui-seong.
Hui-seong!
Hui-seong, you okay?
If you feel like throwing up...
Tae-hyeong, are you all right?
Me?
What about me?
I mean, are we all right?
Why wouldn't we be?
Us having a kid.
Are you really okay with our choice?
Hui-seong, what's going on?
I can just tell by looking into your eyes.
You can't hide anything from me.
So just be honest.
About?
This child.
Do you regret saying this is our baby?
[scoffs]
-Hui-seong.
-Do you?
[somber music playing]
I've always liked how honest you are.
But if you aren't honest with me now,
you'll just keep on struggling,
and I'll keep walking on eggshells
like I was in the car.
So answer me.
Did you... regret it?
You did.
For just a moment, barely even a second.
Even if it was...
that's time you spent regretting it.
It was barely a second. I'm only human.
Can't you understand that?
Yeah.
[sighs]
Then you can understand me too.
Hui-seong...
Come on, please.
I liked you
because you were always honest.
And I loved you
because you always respected what I said.
Don't follow me.
[somber music continues]
[Ji-uk] Ma'am.
I'm... coming in.
-Ma'am, when do yo...
-[Hae-yeong] Ji-uk.
Whenever I would go home,
where would you go?
I must have visited a few times
while you were there.
Yet you were nowhere to be found.
When Mom knew you were coming,
she'd give me a heads-up.
And I'd go to the library or some cafe.
Also...
we have met before.
Just once.
We did?
It was the, um,
first anniversary of your dad's death.
[gentle music playing]
[quietly] Oh, that's right.
Mom told me she was coming.
Talk about a close call.
LISTENING COMPREHENSION
[clears throat]
What are you looking at... half-pint?
You won't grow if you start smoking
when you're that young.
[sighs]
[scoffs]
Hey.
You got a light?
[smacks lips] Never mind if you don't.
Guess you started smoking young,
half-pint.
[Hae-yeong] Wait, half-pint was you?
The guy who shared his lighter.
Ji-uk, that was you?
Why did you have a lighter anyway?
It was Grandma's.
That day, I went to visit her.
[soft chuckle]
That was you.
Why?
[soft chuckle] Mm-mm.
By the way...
right after our wedding was over,
why did you ghost me
without saying anything?
Because I...
I fell for you.
But then why disappear?
Back then,
I was worried this would happen.
That I wouldn't be able
to keep the promise I made to Mom
when I got fostered.
So because of the promise
you made to your grandma,
you never saw your mom
even though you missed her?
And because of the promise
you made to my mother...
you made sure you never fell for me?
Ma'am.
We should go.
SPICE UP OUR LOVE EPISODE 157

[keyboard keys clacking]
HA-JUN...
[keyboard keys clacking]
[Gyu-hyun] What an irresponsible author.
This isn't an ending,
it's a sudden pause in the story,
and it's definitely not happy
for me or you.
[deep breath]
[upbeat rock music playing
over headphones]
Secretary Yeo.
Head home for the day. I can drive myself.
[chuckles]
Allow me to at least
get the door for you then, okay?
[car lock beeps]
[Ha-jun chuckles softly]
[sighs]
Well, sir, have an awesome night.
[grunts]
[ominous music playing]
[glass shatters]
[upbeat rock music playing loudly
over headphones]
[door lock clicks]
[door creaks]
[Ja-yeon] Ah! Ugh!
[sighs]
[frustrated groan]
That damn circuit breaker again.
[Kitty yowling]
Kitty, were you surprised too?
I'll hurry up and... [gasps]
[menacing music playing]
Who...
Who are you?
-[Ja-yeon] Excuse me...
-[Chang-il] Ja-yeon.
It's Dad.
-[gasps]
-[menacing music rises]
[shaky breathing]
-Nam Ja-yeon!
-[gasping]
What, no hello?
Daddy missed you.
[shaky breathing]
I...
-[Chang-il yells] Come here!
-[shudders]
[Chang-il] Stand up straight.
Show some respect.
[menacing music intensifies]
[groaning]
[groaning continues]
Ah! Nam Ja-yeon!
[Chang-il groaning] Nam Ja-yeon!
-Nam Ja-yeon!
-[shaky breathing]
[Chang-il groans]
-Open the door!
-[doorknob rattling]
[Chang-il] I said open the door!
Nam Ja-yeon!
You little rat b*tch!
Open up, right now!
Nam Ja-yeon, you f*cking b*tch!
[automated voice]
The number you're calling is unavailable.
-Please leave a message after the tone.
-[sighs] Why isn't she answering?
Could she be asleep?
Tch...
Ja-yeon always answers my calls.
Even if she's been sleeping.
[sighs] This isn't like her.
[line ringing]
-The number you're calling is unavailable.
-[sighs]
Please leave a message a...
HUI-SEONG
[automated voice] This customer's phone
is powered off. Your call has been...
Why in God's name
would she turn her phone off? sh*t!
[Hae-yeong sighs]
What are you worried about?
-[Chang-il] Nam Ja-yeon!
-[doorknob rattling]
Where did you go, you f*cking b*tch?
[grunts] Open the door!
-Nam Ja-yeon, I said come out!
-[shaky breathing]
Open the door!
The hell? You! Come out right now!
Nam Ja-yeon!
Get out here now!
Open the door!
Didn't you hear me? [grunts]
[panting]
[Chang-il grunts] You shameless b*tch.
You decided to hide here of all places?
In this house,
where somebody died because of you, huh?
[sobbing] No.
Then that man would still be alive today.
It's your fault he's dead!
[screams] No! No, it's not!
Is there...
something you're not telling me?
Ma'am.
The m*rder*r is out of prison.
[dramatic music playing]
The m*therf*cker...
who k*lled my dad.
-[Chang-il] I said open the door!
-[banging on door]
[knife clinks]
-Open it! Open the door!
-[whimpering]
-[Chang-il grunting]
-[Ja-yeon groans]
[heavy breathing]
You think the culprit's gonna...
come back to your house?
That b*stard won't come for me.
There's someone else he wants.
[Chang-il] Ja-yeon.
Why don't we have
a father-daughter heart-to-heart...
about your mother?
[shaky breathing]
[dramatic music intensifies]
[music fades]
[phone ringing]
NEW BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT TEAM
TEAM LEADER SON HAE-YEONG
-Ms. Son?
-[Ji-uk] No, uh, it's Kim Ji-uk.
[sighs] Did you call to brag about
how the two of you made up or something?
[Ji-uk] Mr. Bok.
You have to go
to Team Leader Son's house right now.
-What?
-Please hurry.
[nervous exhale]
-[tires screeching]
-[action music playing]
[Chang-il] g*dd*mn.
[Ja-yeon coughing]
[Chang-il] Ja-yeon.
Don't you feel sorry
for your old man at all?
My wife cheated on me
and ran away from home,
and then my kid abandoned me.
[Ja-yeon coughs]
[Chang-il] The last time, I only came here
to ask you where your mom was.
[sighs] Then that stupid as*h*le
had to get in my face
and then I spent years
in the f*cking joint.
[coughing]
Ja-yeon.
It's still not too late.
I'd like the three of us
to be a family again.
So answer me.
Where's Mom?
[heavy breathing]
I don't know.
[gasps]
[Chang-il]
I'm going to ask you one last time.
Where's your mother?
[Ja-yeon scoffs]
Do you know why you're so obsessed
with finding out where Mom is?
Because she's the only person in the world
who's really afraid of you.
You're a loser who only acts strong
in front of Mom.
[grunts, breathes heavily]
[Chang-il laughs] sh*t.
Oh, won't your friend be back soon?
-Her name was Hae-yeong, right?
-Shut up.
Another innocent person is gonna die
because of you.
-[Ja-yeon yells] Shut up!
-[Chang-il grunts]
Tell me!
If you don't tell me,
I'm gonna k*ll Son Hae-yeong
right in front of your eyes
-just like I k*lled her...
-[choking]
-...dad!
-[hurried footsteps approaching]
Ms. Yeon!
[Chang-il] What the...
-[Gyu-hyun grunts]
-[Chang-il groans]
[Gyu-hyun] Ms. Yeon! Ms. Yeon!
Ja-yeon! Ja-yeon!
[Chang-il grunts] g*dd*mn it.
-[Gyu-hyun] Ja-yeon!
-[Chang-il grunts]
[Gyu-hyun groans]
[Chang-il] You b*stard.
-[heavy breathing]
-Who the hell are you?
You stupid m*therf*cker!
-[knife whooshes]
-[Gyu-hyun groaning]
[Chang-il] Who are you?
Ah, Ja-yeon's boyfriend?
Of course.
She's just like her mother,
a little tr*mp obsessed with men.
-[grunts]
-[Gyu-hyun groans]
[Chang-il] Yeah, a tr*mp,
just like her mother.
[grunts]
[both grunting]
[both panting]
[grunting]
[panting]
[suspenseful music playing]
[heavy breathing]
Goodbye, son-in-law.
It was nice meeting ya.
-[shouts]
-[Chang-il grunts]
-[grunts]
-[shouts]
-[grunts]
-[Chang-il groans]
[panting]
[lightsabers zapping]
-[grunting]
-[epic music playing]
[music stops]
[coughing]
Gyu-hyun...
-[epic music continues]
-[grunting]
[Chang-il screams] Stop!
[Gyu-hyun grunts]
[panting]
[music fades]
Gyu-hyun!
Ja-yeon.
[Ja-yeon breathing shakily]
Are you all right?
Yeah.
[relieved sigh]
Are you really sure you're all right?
[tearfully] Yeah.
-[Gyu-hyun] Oh...
-[sobs]
[soft music playing]
[Gyu-hyun] It's okay.
Everything's okay now.
It's okay.
Everything's okay.
[indistinct chatter]
[Gyu-hyun groans]
Thank you.
[sentimental music playing]
I'm okay.
It's just a little scratch.
[soft music playing]
[indistinct police radio chatter]
[police 1] Are you doing all right?
-Yes, I'll be fine.
-Yeah.
[police 1] Let me just ask you
a few quick questions.
This here is the weapon
the culprit brought, right?
Yeah.
[police 1] What are these then?
[gasps]
-[comical music playing]
-Uh, so, you see...
Those are what I used in self-defense.
[police 1] Oh.
I thought the perp brought them with him.
Well, here you go then. Thank you.
[Ja-yeon clears throat]
[car approaching]
[nervous breathing]
Ja-yeon...
[Hae-yeong] Ja-yeon!
[gasps]
-Hae-yeong!
-[Hae-yeong] Ah!
[relieved sigh]
[Chang-il] I told you,
I came to see my f*cking daughter!
What, so if a dad comes over
to pay his kid a visit, it's trespassing?
Seriously, what the f*ck, you guys?
Hey, Ja-yeon, tell them!
-Who am I?
-[shaky breathing]
I'm your father, aren't I?
[shaky breathing]
[sighs]
-[Chang-il groans]
-[all gasp]
What gives you the right
to call yourself a dad?
A dad who beats his own kid
is no dad at all.
No one needs a father like that.
[Chang-il laughing]
[Chang-il] Did you see that?
That b*tch hit me just now.
You goddam... [grunts]
-Oh! Oh!
-[police 2] Miss!
[police 3] Let's go.
Come on.
[Chang-il] Ugh, sh*t...
[heavy breath]
[light pensive music playing]
Wait, you knew, Hae-yeong?
This whole time, you knew...
who my dad was?
-[soft music playing]
-[shaky breathing]
I...
I don't understand.
If you knew, then why...
Because I didn't wanna lose out.
[Hae-yeong]
When you came to visit me that day...
it felt like it might be the last time
that I'd get to see you.
Hae-yeong!
[Hae-yeong]
The look on your face said it all.
[Ja-yeon] Hae-yeong.
It's me, Ja-yeon.
[Hae-yeong]
Like you'd been through a living hell.
That you were screaming
for me to help you.
And then an arrogant thought
occurred to me.
That although I couldn't save Dad...
[soft music playing]
...maybe I could save you.
Nam Ja-yeon?
[Hae-yeong] Because hating you...
I could do that anytime.
But that day might have been
the only chance I got to save your life.
[Hae-yeong] Long time no see.
How you've been doing?
I didn't want to lose you like my dad.
[Ja-yeon] I... [shaky breath]
All this time, I had no idea.
[deep exhale]
[Hae-yeong] But Ja-yeon...
sometimes I regretted it though.
I thought maybe...
I'd accidently turned your life
into an even greater hell.
[soft chuckle]
[Ja-yeon sobs] You saved my life.
[voice breaking] It's thanks to you
that I'm even still here. [sniffles]
I'm glad.
[chuckles]
Hae-yeong... [sobbing]
[Ja-yeon] Hae-yeong, I'm so sorry.
Mr. Bok, are you all right?
What do you think? My arm got slashed.
Still, I got more hits in than he did.
-[imitates grunting]
-[scoffs]
Oh, by the way...
back at their house...
what are all those things?
[comical music playing]
In the box?
-[hesitates] Oh, uh...
-[comical music playing]
Uh, you know, Mr. Bok,
you should really go to the hospital.
Seriously, why were they there?
And why so many?
-Ah, you must be in so much pain.
-[groaning]
Why don't we get that arm stitched up,
so it doesn't scar?
[groaning continues]
[Ji-uk]
Please take him to a hospital. Here.
Thank you...
for calling me tonight
and giving me the chance
to protect Ja-yeon.
I'm grateful.
And Ji-uk...
[pensive music playing]
[clears throat]
Oh, Ja-yeon.
[Gyu-hyun] Ja-yeon, here, this way.
Yes, here.
[siren blaring]
[sighs]
[pensive music continues]
[sighs] That b*stard
completely smashed the door.
And we just installed a new one
not too long ago.
What?
Are you scared?
[scoffs] Oh, please.
Well then...
should I head upstairs?
What about the front door?
Are you done... with all that?
Yeah.
Okay, you must be tired as well.
Go on up and head to bed.
How about down here?
Uh, the sofa.
On the sofa there.
It's more comfy in a bed.
Uh... could I really?
Your own bed.
Ah.
Good night.
[Gyu-hyun grunts]
[knocking on door]
Come in.
Ah, Ms. Nam.
You're still awake?
Is it all right if... I come in?
My sister, she wanted me to tell you
how grateful she is
for everything you did.
Ah.
And I barely said a word to you either.
Thank you for saving me.
Without you, I'd probably be dead.
Still, because of me, you got hurt.
I'm...
so, so sorry.
Ah...
Wait.
Is that all?
What?
Ms. Nam, I thought
you were all about being fair.
You should really repay the favor.
[comical music playing]
What?
[squeaking effect]
This is repaying the favor?
[Gyu-hyun] Fair is fair.
We need to get even.
Since I kept you safe, Ms. Yeon,
it's only fair
that you keep me safe too...
from my nightmares.
[soft chuckle]
[soft chuckle]
Was...
Was he the reason?
Him and Team Leader Son?
Why you and I took a little hiatus?
[sighs]
I wish I'd known sooner.
[sentimental music playing]
If I had known...
I wouldn't have pursued you like that.
I'm sorry I couldn't tell you.
Had I known earlier...
I'd have given you my heart...
and done anything I could
to win your love.
[grunts]
But you and Team Leader Son are sisters.
I can't possibly compete with that.
Still...
I'm going to try.
It'll take all my wealth and power,
but I'll make sure
Team Leader Son never gets between us...
Gyu-hyun.
You really still... like me?
Knowing what you know?
Yes.
You understand and accept my faults
even after... everything that happened?
And love you too.
Oh, do I love you.
Meow.
What?
My heart just needs
to meow sometimes, I guess.
[Gyu-hyun sighs]
[Gyu-hyun] That must've hurt.
[soft, bright music playing]
[music fades]
[phone buzzing]
MOM
Hello?
[door opens]
Ji-uk.
Ji-uk, wake up.
Kim Ji-uk.
[soft grunt]
[Ji-uk] What is it?
You need to get up.
Mom passed away.
What?
I just got a call from the nursing home
saying to come now.
What...
What did you say?
That Mom passed away tonight.
-Ma'am...
-Come on, get up.
Ma'am.
[Hae-yeong] We need to go see Mom now.
There isn't any time for this.
Son Hae-yeong!
Son Hae-yeong...
Ji-uk.
Yes?
My mom's dead.
[sniffles] My mom died...
and left me behind.
[sobbing] My mom...
[sobbing continues]
[sighs, breathes shakily]
She died and left me behind...
[melancholy music playing]
[sobbing]
[wailing, sobbing]
[closing theme music playing]
-[wailing]
-[Ji-uk] I made a promise to your mom
that I would... never let you go.
[Jeong-a] What are you planning?
[Gi-h*] I can't end up with a lowly writer
for a daughter-in-law.
[Hae-yeong]
You don't need to keep any more promises.
I don't want you
to feel responsible for me
or be the reason
for your entire existence.
[Ji-uk] Well, I don't need good vibes.
That means you won't be able to forget me.
That you regret it.
[Hae-yeong] Help me.
I want you to protect me, one last time,
so I can be me.
