01x48 - A Home Cooked Meal

[bunniefuu]

Your mother...

has cancer.

What?

No way.

- Mi Rae?
- Mi Rae?

Poor Mom.

Goodness.

She shouldn't be like that on the floor.

Grandma, Dad, what's going to happen to Mom?

It's not good for her to be on the floor like that.

Take her to her room.

Mi Rae, let's get you up.

Dad, what will happen to Mom?

Mi Rae, please.

- Come on.
- Hurry.

Goodness me.

[It's Beautiful Now]

[Episode 48]

I was happy to have received your call.

It's been on my mind for a while.

You take care of our dad.

It's not me who takes care of him.

He's the one who lets me live with him.

I'm grateful.

There's nothing to be grateful about a son living with his father.

I was mean to you at first.

Seeing the close relationship you have with our dad...

made me jealous.

I spent decades not knowing who my biological parents were...

while missing...

and resenting them.

Of course. I fully understand.

Wouldn't I be the one who is well aware...

of what you had to go through?

Thank you.

Anyway,

I was hoping to ask you a favour.

I may not have a lot of time...

[Husband]

- Will you excuse me?
- Sure.

Hey, what's up?

Where are you?

Are you still with your father?

No. Why do you ask?

Mi Rae knows.

I think she's in shock.

All right. I'll be right home.

What is it? Is something wrong?

I'm sorry about this,

but I need to head back home.

Sure. We'll do this some other time.

You can call me even when you don't have a reason to.

Right.

I hope you'll take good care of our dad.

I know it's what you've been doing so far,

but I will still ask that you continue to do so.

There's no need to ask that of me.

Silly, isn't it?

I hope you'll be fond of our Hyun Jae.

Sons-in-law are usually adored by the wife's mother.

Right.

[What to be aware of when dividing parenting roles.]

[Lawyer Lee Hyun Jae]

So is Mom really...

going to look after Yoon Jae's baby?

Gosh, it's time to cook dinner.

Hey, Hyun Jae.

Mom, what are you doing?

I'm cooking.

I'll go see you later today.

Really? Why?

Do I need a reason when I go to see my mom?

This is just so sudden.

Is Mi Rae coming too?

No, she went to her parents'.

I guess she will have dinner there.

So I want to have dinner with you.

I have my own mom, you know.

Okay. I'll see you then.

Kyung Ae, come here and take a look.

What...

She has her childhood face in these photos.

And she still has it.

Why didn't I notice that before?

No wonder why you were sad.

I should've asked her for her photos sooner.

- I'm home.
- Hey, you're home early.

Come here and take a look at your aunt's photos.

Here. Look.

Look at this. And here.

I'll go cook dinner now.

I'll call you when dinner is ready.

Father, I'll tell you when it's done.

Okay.

She had big, shiny eyes when she was little.

Sure. She was the apple of my eye when she was little.

Grandpa, there will be holes in the photos.

Do you want me to put the photos on your phones?

- Can you do that?
- Of course, I can.

Give me your phone.

This is why I should hang out with young people.

So can I see Jung Eun's photos anytime I want on my phone?

- Sure.
- I see. All right.

- Where's Mi Rae?
- She's lying in our room.

Why did you tell her?

I told her.

She came in and asked about it while we were talking.

I had no choice.

She was going to find out anyway.

We couldn't hide it from her forever.

And now we know...

that Jung Hoo and I are not eligible donors.

Did you tell her that too?

As soon as she heard about your cancer,

she asked everything about your condition...

and how you would be treated.

I had no choice but to tell her.

Aren't you going to tell your father?

I just can't.

Then you shouldn't have told me either.

Why did you tell me? I wish I didn't know.

Seriously, it's so...

Are you feeling okay?

Are you worried about me even now?

What about you?

Are you all right?

Yes. I'm trying to accept it.

Doesn't your belly feel tight or painful?

It feels a little tight.

It can happen.

That's because the baby is growing inside you.

You should be careful.

Is this why you told me to do things on my own?

You should've told me first if you had an issue like that.

What do I mean to you?

I told you before.

I wanted to be your friend.

But how could you hide such an important thing from me?

You're pregnant now.

You have a baby growing inside you.

All you need to care about is Little Athlete.

If I didn't have Little Athlete,

I could donate my liver.

Why does it have to be now?

Knowing that...

you care about me is more than enough.

Actually, I'm glad you have Little Athlete now.

Because I know it will be of great comfort to you.

I can't live without you.

You have to receive a liver transplant.

All beings are subject to death.

The only difference is some die now, and some die later.

We shouldn't be doing this now.

If I were an eligible donor, there wouldn't be a problem.

It's your fault that you drank a lot...

and didn't take good care of your health.

I thought at least one of us would be a match.

How could this be happening?

I heard her relatives could donate if possible.

How distant can we consider our relatives?

My brother's family and my sister's family.

They refused to live with their mom after inheriting money.

That's not going to happen.

You're right about Jin Ju.

There's no way she will do this.

Don't even bring that up.

You're not going to hear the answer you want.

She'd say you reached her only when you needed help.

Then do we have to wait...

until they find a match?

That's the only option for now.

Anyway, I will take care...

of urgent issues at the company and stop going to work.

Jung Hoo, I want you to take charge.

Okay.

[February 6, 1969]

Honey.

Are you done talking with them?

Yes.

We should have dinner then.

You don't have to cook. We can order some food.

Mi Rae is here. I want to cook for her.

I'll do it.

We have dried yellow corvina in the freezer.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I should've taken better care of my health.

I wanted to live.

So, at first, I just turned a blind eye.

I just did as you said.

It's not like I could stop you from getting tested.

And I knew how Jung Hoo was feeling...

when he had the compatibility test.

So I didn't try to stop him.

I want you...

to stop discussing how to save my life now.

How would we stop that?

The results...

of you and Jung Hoo's compatibility tests.

Actually, I'm glad that neither of you is a match.

I don't want you...

to harm your health just to save me.

I thought I could turn a blind eye and put up with it,

but I just can't.

Jung Hoo and you can't donate the liver even if you want.

So you don't have to beat yourself up.

Soo Jung.

How can I possibly live without you?

I'm getting myself sorted.

I even got my portrait ready for my funeral.

You're not going to die.

I won't let you die.

I'll do everything I can.

Don't be silly.

Hey, isn't Min h* coming?

- Tell your dad to come.
- Okay.

- Dad is coming.
- It smells great.

- What? Were you waiting for me?
- Yes.

You should hurry and come when the food is ready.

You said Hyun Jae would come.

Are we eating without him?

He said he'd come. I wish he could join us for dinner.

- It looks delicious.
- I'm here.

- Hey.
- He's here. Come and have a seat.

Hello, Grandpa, Dad, and Soo Jae.

Hey.

Now that you have Little Athlete, you're feeling on top of the world.

That's right, I am.

Why did you come without Mi Rae?

I have business with Mom and Dad.

With us? Let's eat first.

- Okay.
- Let's eat.

Yes, let's eat.

I'll have soup first.

Hyun Jae asked about our junior.

If we're sure Mother will raise junior for us.

Something smells.

Honey.

Can you not say the word "smell"?

I'm barely getting over the morning sickness crisis.

And my mom...

You really don't have to worry.

I think Mi Rae's mother said...

she wouldn't raise her baby. That's what my gut says.

I don't think they'll willingly let us take Mother's services.

I said you didn't have to worry about Mom.

- Can I trust you?
- Yes.

What business do you have with us?

You're so impatient.

Hey. I'm curious too.

Here.

After marrying off Yoon Jae and me,

you never got to take a real break.

So?

This is a coupon for two nights at a five-star hotel.

What...

For that long?

I thought one night wouldn't be enough.

Hey. Thanks so much.

Goodness.

You're welcome.

Plus,

once Mi Rae has the baby,

we'll become a nuisance to you.

Why would you be a nuisance?

Right?

You'd love your grandkid to bits.

I would. I'd adore your kid.

Both you and Yoon Jae got pregnant right away,

and I'm so pleased.

You said we wouldn't be a nuisance.

You'll help us raise our baby.

It's done.

Here.

Here.

No.

Have some more.

I ate a lot.

I'll eat more at home.

Hyun Jae's a good cook.

Yes. Hyun Jae's a good cook,

so if you want something, ask him to make it.

Will he come home early today?

He'll have dinner with his parents.

Did you...

tell your father?

I couldn't.

Don't you tell him either.

I haven't done anything for him.

I don't want to upset him now.

Father.

Yes?

Hyun Jae's visit made me think of Jung Eun,

so I was looking at her photos.

Soo Jae put them on my phone so I can see them whenever.

You'd look at her photos even if it weren't for Hyun Jae.

Father. Today...

I saw Jung Eun.

When?

She called me after dropping you off at home.

She seems to think...

she was mean to us when we first met.

She apologized to me.

Did she say that to you too?

She said she was sorry to me as well.

What she did wasn't mean at all.

Right?

You didn't think so, did you?

Of course not.

Considering her position, her reaction was completely normal.

You're a great older brother.

That made me think I should be even nicer to her.

She is your only sibling.

She is.

[Coupon for 2 nights]

"Lunch or dinner."

Hi, Yoon Jae. How's your morning sickness?

It's better now. What did you do today?

Why are you asking after me?

Hyun Jae was here.

He gave me a hotel coupon.

I think he wants our help with the baby.

What?

Mom, you can't fall for that.

There's our junior.

I didn't fall for anything.

I'll come over tomorrow.

She can't fall for what?

Hyun Jae...

gave her a hotel coupon.

I knew it.

I told you not to let your guard down.

If he shoots a g*n, I'll sh**t a cannon.

A hotel coupon is nothing.

What'll you do now?

Hyun Jae, that squirt...

That's a bribe.

He wants us to raise his baby.

I know. Do you think I don't?

So, will you raise their baby?

What about Yoon Jae?

Hae Jun doesn't have family.

Hyun Jae has a mother-in-law.

Would Jung Eun not look after Mi Rae's baby?

Then why did you take the coupon?

How can I refuse what he offered?

And even if Jung Eun helps, I can't exactly turn a blind eye.

That's true.

Yoon Jae and Hae Jun acted as if I'd automatically raise their kid.

So I'm toying with them on purpose.

I'm not a pushover.

Wow, you're a great haggler.

Are you raising your pay?

Goodness. I'm impressed.

Mom.

Where are Yu Na's clothes that were in my room?

Why?

It's just that they disappeared.

I met with Yu Na.

What did you talk about?

You asked me...

if there was something between us you didn't know about.

I met up with her and said we should never meet again.

That's how much I liked her.

And that's how much I resented her.

Then you said she'd gotten hurt because of you.

You'd conned your dad and me,

so I had doubts you'd become a decent person.

But then I saw...

how the incident made you mature,

and I felt bad about what I'd said.

My kid was in the wrong...

and I'd taken it out on her.

You're the scumbag.

Mom.

I told her...

we could say hi if we crossed paths.

Isn't that enough?

- Who is it?
- It's me.

I have something to say.

Father.

I heard you'd visited your parents, but you were at home.

I'd have picked her up if you'd called me.

Do you feel sick?

No.

Go and rest.

I'll get changed, then.

Yes, go ahead.

- Hey, Hyun Jae.
- Yes?

Please take good care of her.

Sure thing.

Why don't you have a seat, Father?

No, I should head back.

I can't let you leave like this. I'll be right back.

Please have a seat.

Did something happen?

Honey, are you not feeling well?

My mom is sick.

How sick is Mi Rae's mother?

She has liver cancer.

A transplant from a living donor is her best option.

Jung Hoo and I were hoping to help her through this,

but...

We both got tested to see if we were eligible,

but...

neither of us is.

Why...

Why didn't you tell me that you met my mom?

It's all in the past.

Is she the reason...

you pushed me away?

It wasn't just because of her.

I admit that I was a mess.

But I have changed a lot.

I'm not the same guy who suggested the scam.

I'm becoming...

a better man.

You weren't the only one to blame.

I was at fault as well.

And I have also changed.

I'm not the same girl who accepted the scam you suggested.

But...

even though a lot has changed,

my feelings for you...

remain the same.

I'm not trying to force anything.

I only ask that you seriously think about it.

Come in. It's you.

- Were you about to go to bed?
- Yes.

- Mother.
- Go ahead.

I'd like...

to cook a home-cooked meal for my father.

Then do so.

I'll invite him over.

Do I need to be home for that event?

Since he doesn't know what's going on,

he'll come over delighted to be treated to a meal you cook.

I can't play dumb and pretend like everything's okay.

That's something I can't do.

Your father just left.

Right.

Does it hurt?

No, I'm fine.

How's your mom?

She seems unfazed.

She didn't tell me because she was worried about me.

What am I supposed to do?

My mom...

Why did something like this happen to my mom?

I could've been a donor.

We have the same blood type,

so I would've been able to donate my liver.

There's nothing I can do for her though.

Come and have breakfast.

I don't want to.

You should think of our baby.

Then I should eat.

I'm glad you don't have morning sickness.

I've been thinking.

I should cut back on work.

I want to spend a lot of my time with my mom.

Then that's what you'll do.

Have what's soft.

And take your time.

Min h*, Kyung Ae!

- Yes?
- Yes?

Jung Eun invited us over to her house.

She'd like to cook a meal for us.

That's out of the blue.

You invited her over for a meal,

and she really appreciated it.

Could something be up?

I got that feeling when we met yesterday.

What do you mean?

She apologized out of the blue...

and asked me for a favour.

A favour as in what?

She wanted me to take good care of you.

Why is that weird?

She only said it because you were the one who lived with him.

Exactly.

I think Jung Eun wants to get along with you more.

It's why she invited the both of you over as well.

You're right, Father.

While you're here, you should have breakfast.

- Come.
- Sure thing.

[Daily Health Log]

Hey.

I invited my dad, Min h*, and his wife over this weekend.

They'll all be here.

Right, and I should be here too.

Of course.

I don't think I can face your father though.

Shouldn't we at least tell your brother?

Only when my condition worsens, and I end up in the hospital.

It's more than enough time for the others to prepare themselves.

Please don't say things like that.

Why are you only considering the worst outcome?

You're putting us all down when the fight isn't over!

Honey, did you weigh yourself today?

From now on, you should take better care of yourself.

An opportunity will surface as long as we hang in there.

Just like this actor here. Cool, right?

Gosh, Hyun Jae.

You know "Divorce Lawyer" was a huge hit, right?

Yes, I know. Ms. Kim reached out to me.

She'll soon be working on her next show.

I might be on it.

She promised me an audition,

and my family's already celebrating.

Watch this.

How's that?

Nice, Sung Soo.

Good luck.

- Don't I look cool?
- I wish you the best.

[Father-in-law]

[Father-in-law]

Come in.

You. I can't believe you cheated.

You gave your mother a hotel gift voucher.

How does that qualify as cheating?

You cheated by trying to get my mom to babysit for free.

You can always turn to Mi Rae's mom for a nanny,

so you're not as desperate as we are.

Have a seat.

[Healthy Liver Checklist]

Let's see.

[CEO Hyun Jin Heon]

[Brother-in-law]

Hey, Min h*.

I wanted to thank you for inviting us over for a meal.

As if that's anything to be grateful for.

I met with Jung Eun yesterday.

Did she tell you?

No.

Could something be up at home?

Is Jung Eun going somewhere?

Could she be going on a long vacation?

Anyway,

I should go see Mi Rae's mom,

but I don't know what to say.

But she's still relatively young.

How could something like this happen?

If only there were a donor.

Finding one would be tough unless it's a family member.

Sons-in-law are considered family, right?

We'd appreciate it...

if you kept this to yourself for now.

Yes, Min h*.

Thank you for inviting us over for a meal.

That's ridiculous. I should've had you over ages ago.

Mom, it's me.

Okay. Be well, then.

Did you call me just to say that?

Well, yes.

Sure thing. I'll see you then.

Are you making sikhye?

You really shouldn't from now on.

I'd prefer business to be as usual.

Why are you here though? Shouldn't you be at work?

I'm taking some time off.

I'd like for you to have a normal life as possible.

How can it be the same...

when you're sick?

You'll only make it harder on me.

I don't want to be the parent who gets in her child's way.

If you want to do what's best for me,

show me that you can cheerfully manage once I'm gone.

Only then will I not worry.

Mom...

Now, go back to work.

I still have some time left.

[CEO Hyun Jin Heon]

Come in.

- You're here.
- Hi.

- Let's sit over here.
- Sure.

Can I get you some tea?

Maybe after I tell you why I'm here.

I'll get tested to see if I'm an eligible donor.

I'd like to donate if possible.

Gosh.

Thank you.

I'm family too, right?

Does Mi Rae know?

I haven't told her yet.

Goodness.

Mom.

- What...
- Hey.

What brings you by? Is it your day off?

Yes. Where's Grandpa?

He's at yoga and should be home soon.

Really? Mom, this is for you.

You didn't have to bring me anything.

That's not all, Mom. Have a seat.

I came bearing the gift that is treasured by parents.

Ta-Da. It's cash.

What has gotten into you?

Don't be like this when you know why.

Mom,

Hyun Jae gave you a hotel gift voucher,

so I'll double that.

I'll send you on a trip abroad.

I was going to babysit despite all of these gifts.

Hae Jun's mother isn't around anymore.

You two both have jobs, so, of course, I should help out.

I'm sure Mi Rae will receive help from her mom.

- Ms. Han, you're the best.
- Gosh.

Kyung Chul, please.

- I said no.
- Gosh.

Hi, Aunt Kyung Soon.

- Hey.
- Yoon Jae, you're here.

Hi, Grandpa.

Hi, Great Aunt Kyung Soon.

- Let's sit.
- Sure.

- Hey, Yoon Jae.
- Hi.

Kyung Chul, are you going to be like this?

Call Jung Ja already.

Do it yourself. Why are you asking me to do it?

Aren't you curious...

as to why she hasn't been to yoga?

We're going over to Jung Eun's soon, so I'll ask her then.

Jung Eun's mother-in-law wasn't at yoga today?

No, and she never misses a class unless it's for a good reason.

Meanwhile, Kyung Chul thinks that it's no big deal.

I met Jung Eun the other day,

and she said everything was fine.

Really? Then I'm glad.

Gosh, what's this?

I just gave Mom a monetary gift.

Goodness.

Marriage helped you finally mature.

This is why one should get married.

It's how young people grow up.

So monetary gifts to parents indicate that one's maturing?

Does Man Ri give you some as well?

Must you poke me where it hurts the most?

As if Man Ri would have any extra money around.

Unbelievable.

He doesn't.

My gosh.

Will your father be an actor, then?

Yes, he just needs to pass the audition.

Will it be over if he doesn't?

I'm sure Dad will make it.

Of course.

- Grandpa.
- Yes?

Why aren't you at work today?

Today? It's my day off.

It's Mom's day off too.

But I still have a lot to do.

I have to shop for groceries that'll last us the week...

and clean up around the house.

It's exhausting.

I know it's hard on you, especially with the kids.

Honey, the same can be said about me as well.

It's still a joy.

It sure is.

Let's enjoy this feast.

Did I make you wait?

No, sir. What did you want to talk about?

Have a seat first.

You've been doing such a great job...

which is why I wanted to make you an offer.

What would that be?

I've been looking to branch out to a new location.

What do you think?

If you agree to manage it,

it's what I'll do.

I'll think about it, then.

Saet Byul, a lot of orders must've come in today.

Tell me about it.

We're closed today...

Soo Jae. What are you doing here?

I have good news.

And there's someone I want to share it with.

Gosh, how cheesy.

Are you guys back together?

I told her that I wanted to get back...

together with her.

Lee Soo Jae, you sound like a man.

- Saet Byul, please.
- So is it your decision to make?

I'll leave you two alone then.

No, Saet Byul. I'll get going.

I don't want to force Yu Na.

But I'll come again when I want to see you.

See you.

Gosh, my heart is fluttering.

Yu Na, do you not like Soo Jae?

I'm not sure if it's okay for me to get back together with him.

When did you get here? You're home early.

I got my work done.

Will you come here and help me?

Sure.

If you need any help, just tell me everything.

I'll do it for you.

Dad, I'm home.

Okay. It's normal.

I have a good appetite now.

And I feel good when I wake up in the morning.

I see. That's nice.

You should take good care of your health now.

I don't want anything from you.

I just want you to stay healthy. That's all I ask for.

Sure. I get it.

You should live long.

Look at me.

I finally found Jung Eun.

Now she even wants to cook for me.

How can one be so sweet?

She's just like her mom.

I see.

My gosh.

Mi Rae.

Isn't she home yet?

You're home.

Yes. You were here.

Did you meet Mother?

My mom said she wanted things to be as usual...

and told me to go.

How is she feeling?

She would never...

show it to me.

Did our Little Athlete eat well today?

If you don't eat, Little Athlete won't get to eat either.

I'm eating well.

I went to your office earlier, but you weren't there.

You went to meet my dad.

Yes. I met Father.

I said I'd take the compatibility test.

I could at least get tested.

What did my dad say?

He said thank you.

I'm thankful too.

If you didn't have our Little Athlete in you,

you would've done it.

You know what?

I can get tested because I'm a family member.

That means Mother and I are family.

Where are you going, Mom?

My father-in-law is coming.

Hey, I just can't bring myself to sit here and eat with him.

Wait. But you can't just leave like this.

I don't care.

Gosh, Mom. Go back to your room.

- Jin Heon, I can't do this.
- Mom, please. Just go back in.

My goodness. I don't want to.

Oh, dear.

If Mother...

doesn't want to eat with us,

let her do as she pleases.

But we have no excuse to offer your father.

He probably already finds it strange...

that Mom isn't going to yoga class.

I just feel bad that I'm making Mother uncomfortable.

This is supposed to be a pleasant lunch,

but she won't be able to enjoy it.

When you were having dinner with the kids the other day,

you found it hard to keep your emotions under control.

But what do we do?

I told Min h* about you.

What?

I told you not to.

I had no choice.

You met him the other day.

He asked if you were going on a long trip or something.

Honey, let's go.

We might get stuck in traffic, so we should leave now.

Okay. Go ahead.

How do I look? Do I look like an upscale person?

I want to look refined.

You look nice.

Aren't you guys ready yet?

Yes, Father. We're coming.

Father.

Hey, you're wearing that.

Is it too soon to leave?

It is better to arrive early than late.

I think we should get going now.

By the way, you look somewhat solemn.

He's just putting on airs. Don't worry about him.

- Okay.
- Let's go.

All right. Let's go.

- Mom, please.
- My gosh.

Mom. Try to smile.

- I'm not an actress.
- Gosh, please.

They're here.

- Hello.
- Hello, Mr. Lee.

Welcome.

It's so good to see you here.

Sure.

- Here.
- Thank you so much.

Jung Eun, you look even prettier today.

You look brighter today as well.

We have a lot of good things going on, so I can't stop smiling.

Sure. I'm feeling the same way.

Things are going so well...

for my children and grandchildren, so I can't be happier.

- Father, please have a seat.
- Okay.

- Please have a seat.
- Sure.

Lunch is almost ready, so please wait a little.

All right.

Jung Eun, is there anything I can help you with?

You should go and talk with them. I got this.

Jung Eun, I'm wearing this.

I put this on to please Father.

Aren't you wearing yours?

Oh, right. I should wear it too.

Go wait in the living room.

Ms. Yoon, why aren't you coming to the yoga class?

Well, I've been a little busy.

I see.

Please come and eat.

Okay. Shall we go?

I'm not eating now.

Why not?

I'm still full from breakfast.

I'll eat later.

You can eat first.

Please go ahead, Mr. Lee.

Okay.

I just can't do this.

I made hot pot rice.

It has some abalone and anchovy in it.

That sounds delicious.

Jung Eun, if the rice is good, we don't need anything else.

But I'm not as good a cook as you are.

That's not true.

Enjoy yourselves.

Thanks. Join us, Jung Eun.

And you too.

Yes, sure.

Father, you must start us off.

I can't believe this day came.

My daughter cooked me a meal.

Dear deities. And ancestors.

All the people in the world. I thank you.

Let's eat. Come on.

Father.

Yes, thank you.

- Enjoy yourself.
- I will.

- It's delicious.
- Good.

It's so sweet.

My goodness.

Why did you barge in without making a sound?

Mom, you're really...

You can come out now.

Why?

We've finished eating, and our guests are having tea.

You can join us for that.

Did you enjoy your meal?

Yes.

She's my daughter, but she's a great cook.

I benefited a lot from that.

Your home is so bright.

Jung Eun must like bright colours.

We put a lot of thought into the interior.

She designed some stuff too.

Did she?

No wonder, I felt good energy as soon as I stepped in.

Why don't you show him around the house?

Oh, yes, shall I?

I considered seeing you in private first,

but I passed on that.

In case you felt pressured.

The day you asked me to look after Father.

Was that the day you found out about your condition?

My husband and son had gotten tested to see if they could be a donor.

It was the day the doctor told us they were both ineligible.

- This is our bedroom.
- Okay.

- Come in.
- Thanks.

Over that way is the dressing room.

This is our bathroom.

You have everything you need in the room.

Yes.

Are the kids' rooms upstairs?

How long will you keep it a secret?

Shouldn't Father know too?

No, I don't want to ever tell him.

How can you not tell him?

How will you deal with the resentment later on?

Telling him won't do any good.

That's what you think.

You can't tell if it'll be good or bad until you tell him.

- Come this way.
- Okay.

- Up here.
- Okay.

It's too much for me.

Father...

will be sad to hear I have cancer.

I don't want to see that.

Honey.

Father.

Do you...

have cancer?

I misheard, didn't I?

Old age has dimmed my hearing, so I can't hear too well.

Min h*.

What were you and Jung Eun talking about?

Why won't you answer?

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

I don't get it.

Do you have cancer? No, right?

Father...

Father.

- Father.
- Father.

- Father.
- Father.

No, right?

- Say I'm mistaken.
- Father.

Why won't you say so?

I'm sorry, Father.

Say it's not true. Say it!

- Say it.
- Father.

I'm okay.

Look at me. I look fine.

Is it what k*lled your mom?

Father.

Father. It's okay.

Medicine has advanced.

It's not like Mom's time.

I can live if I have a transplant.

Honey, say something.

He said he'd donate his liver. Jung Hoo did as well.

Father.

I will be a donor.

We have Jung Hoo too.

Don't worry.

Father.

Father.

Father.

Honey, Father...

Are you all right?

My goodness.

Father.

Can she live with a transplant?

Yes.

When does she get it?

Well...

Soon, I'm sure.

That's a relief.

I must stay strong.

You can't donate your liver.

How long will you lie to him?

We had to tell him that.

Soo Jung.

You can't control how other people feel.

The world doesn't work how you want it to.

I get that you're worried for him,

but your father is a strong person.

He lost you and kept looking for 50 years.

I suffered a huge amount after hearing you were sick.

But I didn't die.

I suffered, and I still do, but I'm here sitting next to you.

You...

You will pull through.

Shall I come with you when you get tested?

I'll go on my own.

If the results say I'm eligible, we can do things together then.

Mr. Lee Hyun Jae?

- Yes?
- Come in.

[CEO Sim Hae Jun]

Yes?

Honey.

- Yoon Jae.
- Let's go eat.

Okay.

Hyun Jae's out.

- Is he?
- Yes.

Did you tell him that...

my mom would raise our kid?

Not yet.

But...

Mother doesn't yet know...

- Mi Rae's mom's condition.
- Right.

Things might change once she finds out.

I know.

I think they might.

How about we stop hoping she'll help us...

and look into daycare?

That's a good idea.

Junior, Mom and Dad are going out to lunch.

Say, "Dad, quit buying stocks."

I haven't bought any more stocks since then.

And I meant that. I won't invest in stocks anymore.

- Are you sure?
- Of course.

When will she receive her liver transplant?

They said it would happen soon,

so why haven't they told us?

Can you look into it?

Sure.

Please call her.

Hi, Grandpa.

This is driving me crazy.

What's driving you crazy?

It's about your aunt.

Your poor grandfather.

Did something happen to her?

Yes, Dad.

Did you ask Soo Jung?

When will she receive her transplant surgery?

Sure, I'll ask her.

Mi Rae.

Hey, you're here.

How's work coming along?

I haven't been able to focus.

Same here.

Dad will be taking time off from work,

and I don't know if I can keep it together.

Doing your best is how you can help Mom and Dad.

I'm choosing to work because Mom will only be sad...

if I cling to her.

I'm finding it difficult to face Mom at home.

Hyun Jae...

went to get tested today.

Really?

Dad, why are you out in the living room?

Did you ask her?

It's not like I can ask Jung Eun myself.

I'll get to it.

What's wrong with you and Kyung Ae?

I've been asking you both to get me an answer,

but you still haven't...

even though you've been saying you'd call her.

Dad, please.

Why? Did my bad mood offend you?

Of course not.

Have you been lying to me?

You didn't tell me when you found out she was sick.

Why?

As her father, I should've known...

considering all it took for me to find her.

I'm sorry. I kept it from you to spare you the shock.

I turned 80 this year...

and have tasted all the sweets and bitters of life.

How can I do nothing when my child is sick?

How could I sleep peacefully at night?

I'm not some feeble old man.

If her husband can't donate, I'll do it instead.

It won't be possible considering your age.

Even I'm too old to donate my liver.

Isn't her husband around your age?

That would make him ineligible as well.

Oh, right. Jung Hoo could donate.

Neither can.

The test results showed that neither is eligible.

Then what?

We'll have to wait.

Until when?

Her life's in imminent danger.

She can have mine.

- I'll donate...
- Dad, please.

You promised not to do this.

You said you were strong.

Aren't you the man who overcame all hardships in life?

That's when I didn't know she could die.

How could I keep on living after losing her?

After what it took to finally find her?

Why...

Why did she have to get what k*lled her mom?

It's why...

I wanted to find her quickly. To inform her of her mom's history.

What am I going to do?

If she dies, I will too.

Dad, please calm down.

I...

I should've known something was up when she apologized to me.

I should've realized it when she suddenly apologized.

What kind of a father doesn't know that his child is sick?

Dad?

Dad, what's wrong?

Dad!

Dad, please.

Kyung Ae!

- Dad, please wake up.
- What's wrong?

- My gosh, Father.
- Call an ambulance.

- Goodness.
- Dad, stay with me!

Dad, please!

[It's Beautiful Now]

Let me donate my liver.

This is exactly why I didn't tell you.

What about my test results?

Let me book the surgery right away.

Hyun Jae can donate his liver to you.

Are you telling me to accept his liver?

I'm going to donate.

- Do whatever you want.
- Please persuade my mom for me.

How can I when I don't understand it myself?

It's my choice, and I've come to this decision.

All I ask is that you support me on this.

Hyun Jae.

I'll be waiting for you right here.
