All language subtitles for Be My Dream Family EP.93 _ KBS WORLD TV 210901 (English)

You asked me

why I moved when very few business owners move

from the area where they've established themselves.

I fell ill.

Ovarian cancer.

It was discovered early, so I got surgery

and went through a few rounds of chemotherapy.

Ovarian cancer is never cured, but mine has come close.

Although it was caught early, the process wasn't easy.

It was even harder

on my girls than it was on me.

I had run my previous salon for a long time,

so my long-time regulars were heartbroken.

And that upset me too.

I see.

Our old house was seeped

in memories of my late son-in-law, Sol's dad,

who had lived with us until his accident.

So for various reasons, we upped and left.

We wanted a fresh start

as a family with a new resolve at a new place.

I see.

So your cancer is completely gone now, right?

I get tested regularly. Even the most recent test

put me in the clear.

More importantly, I feel healthy.

I'm physically comfortable.

Yes, of course.

But Jonghwa, the thing about cancer is

that it can come back at any time.

Although I feel so well now

that I almost forget I was ever ill.

But I am reminded every now and again

that it can come back at any time.

No, don't think like that.

It can return.

We can't deny that.

I can't burden you with it when it does.

I was so happy

when you asked me to marry you that I said yes.

But I shouldn't hide my cancer from you.

It would make our marriage a sham.

Let's just stay as is.

I'm happy for us to just be dating.

No.

It won't come back.

It won't.

You've been taking good care of yourself

and have fought it off for this long. So why would it?

It won't return.

Jonghwa.

Even if it comes back,

you won't be burdening me.

You can never be a burden.

Your very existence is

a blessing to me.

I'm with you whether or not it comes back.

We are one from now on

no matter what.

(Be My Dream Family)

(Episode 93)

I told you

that I couldn't promise you.

It is back.

But how?

You're so healthy.

You don't say.

I didn't suspect a thing.

When did you find out?

After our physicals,

I was told to come back.

My blood test showed a high level of something,

so they wanted to run more tests.

So I went back for more tests

and got the result today.

The cancer has metastasized

into a big tumor and many small nodules

scattered throughout my big intestine.

Why didn't you tell me?

You went back for the tests all alone?

What now?

What can we do?

They can't remove everything with surgery

and I'd be under too much physical stress,

so they suggested chemo.

Jonghwa, I'm okay.

I can get the chemo.

I'm Kang Moran.

It's no big deal for me.

I get a few shots and will be out of it

for a bit.

The girls...

What about the girls?

Should I tell them?

No, no.

You must not.

Not the girls.

It's no big deal for me,

but they had a very hard time the first time around.

Being worrywarts, they had a harder time

eating or sleeping than I did even though my cancer

was caught early.

I can't put them through that again.

Plus,

they just lost their father.

Just keep it to yourself.

After we get through this,

we will tell them then.

You can do that, right?

But still...

No. No.

Just us.

Just us, okay?

You're still up.

Why are you drinking?

I couldn't fall asleep.

Just one drink.

Why are you still up?

I was reviewing a manuscript.

I'm going to bed now.

I see.

Thank you.

For what?

For being with us at the funeral.

I've been meaning to tell you how grateful I was.

Thank you.

That was just...

Thanks for saying that.

So are you and Dabal okay?

Of course. To us, Mom is all that matters.

This sounds childish, but as long as we have Mom,

we have nothing to fear.

Ga-eun and Sol feel the same way.

It is so reassuring to us all

to have Mom.

You should go to bed.

Good night then.

And don't drink too much alone.

I won't. Good night.

Sleep well.

Why are you still up?

Okay.

We won't tell the girls.

Just us.

But let's check with another doctor.

It makes no sense.

You're perfectly fine.

Nothing's wrong with you, so how can

there be something so sinister be inside you?

I can't believe it.

I think that doctor was a quack.

Jonghwa.

I'm not just saying this.

Misdiagnoses happen all the time.

I'll wrap up early tomorrow to come get you.

We'll go to a different hospital,

okay?

Did it taste bad

all of a sudden?

No, it was good.

You seem to have grown taller.

Mind your tongue when you eat.

Good morning.

You're up already?

Sit. Have breakfast.

Later. I'll eat later.

I wanted to tell all of you before you left for work.

I'm going home.

Sanggu is coming to get me.

One thing led to another.

I'm not forgiving him and letting him off the hook.

He begged for forgiveness,

so I'll see how he does.

This is wonderful. Good thinking.

Have him pick you up tonight so he can stay for dinner.

He must be in a rush.

He wants to pick me up right away.

Why are you laughing? It's embarrassing.

Anyway,

I won't be here when you return from work.

Thank you

for letting me stay with you.

Sanggu must really love you.

Congratulations.

There's no need to congratulate me.

I'm just going to see if I can stay married to him.

Oh, my. I'm just saying, Father.

Yes. Good thinking.

If he messes up again, I'll make him pay

even if you insist on staying with him.

I wish you well.

Thank you.

It was fun getting acting lessons from you.

You'll visit us, right?

Of course.

Oh. You must let me know how the audition goes.

Yes. I'll call you on Mom's phone.

Promise.

I'll let you finish eating.

Okay.

Oh, wow. That looks good.

Mother, leave some of that for me.

I'll have it before I leave.

Yes, of course.

I'll pack it for you. We'll set this aside.

This is for Minhui.

Okay.

I'm going home.

I came to say goodbye.

You are?

That's great.

So you and Uncle Sanggu made up, right?

Good thinking.

All married couples fight and make up.

What would you know, you little squirt?

Oh, right. You're married too.

Yes. We fight and make up all the time too.

We don't fight. I get scolded.

Anyway.

Leave us, kids.

Okay.

Aunt Minhui, I'm so happy for you.

Get home safely.

Thanks. See you again, Inseo.

You too, Min-a.

And you too.

- Bye. / - It's Heon, Im Heon.

I know your name.

I even know your mom.

- Please sit down. / - Thank you.

But it didn't seem like things would get resolved.

I'm cutting him slack out of pity.

What can I do? He says he can't live without me.

Pardon? Sanggu said that?

Yes, Geum Sanggu said that.

I thought I was getting myself a sister, but alas.

Do you think I like having you as my elder again?

Y-You two decided to be sisters?

I-It's a long story.

Anyway, Sangbaek,

I heard you decided to open that restaurant.

Do a good job this time

so you can stop causing Yeonghye grief.

Pardon? Yes, of course.

I will do a good job.

Once your restaurant opens, I'll come eat there often

and promote it on social media.

You know they pay celebs to do that these days, right?

Of course. I appreciate it.

We wish you well too.

No more grief.

Yes.

Let's all be well.

Get home safely and see you again.

Thank you. Good luck to you too.

Thank you.

Bye.

I have to use the bathroom.

Hello.

Geuru,

you're okay, right?

Yes, of course.

We heard. We're sorry that

we couldn't be there for you.

Don't say that.

We're all okay.

We appreciate the thought.

Let's have dinner some time.

We'll cook.

Yes, okay.

Have a nice day.

Oh? Hello.

Hi, Ga-eun.

Sangbaek.

Sangmin.

We have to run. Sorry.

Wait up.

Have a nice day.

What are they thinking?

W-What do you mean?

Those two...

Never mind. I'm not talking to you.

For how much longer?

But those two?

What about them?

Mr. Geum.

Geez.

When did you get here?

A while ago.

Huh?

A long while ago. An hour back.

A whole hour?

That long?

How can I play hooky for a whole hour?

You must have been completely focused.

Now that it's almost done, I keep seeing flaws.

You haven't changed.

Human pencil sharpener.

I am?

Yes.

At the art academy,

you sharpened all your students' pencils

to give us even a few more minutes to draw.

I did?

I guess I might have.

Probably because I enjoyed sharpening pencils.

Maybe.

Slouched over, you sharpened all our pencils

and raised them up to check.

Do you still sharpen your pencils like that?

You really haven't changed one bit.

I'm sure I have.

It has been years.

I mean it.

Nothing about you has changed,

including how you paint and your general vibe.

I like that.

I'm sure I've changed.

You haven't.

I put extra sugar in the coffee.

It will perk you up.

Okay. Thanks.

Yes?

Mother.

Leave it. I'll do it.

I should at least change the sheets.

Sit down.

Okay.

Take a look.

What is it?

In your drunken stupor, you cried about how Jonghwa

only got Yeonghye a bracelet.

Jonghwa got this some time ago but worried

that you'd think he was trying

to bribe you into getting back together with Sanggu.

He shouldn't have.

I didn't really mean what I said.

Oh, please.

You cried your eyes out.

How pretty.

Father could have given it to me himself.

Please thank him for me.

No. I'll call him.

Yes, do that.

And I wish you well.

Yes.

I want to do well in consideration

of your support and Father's.

But I'm not sure

if Sanggu will treat me better as he promised.

He will. Give him a chance.

Look at Jonghwa.

If Jonghwa can change, so can Sanggu.

I suppose you're right.

Father really has softened up a lot.

It shows on his face and in how he speaks.

I didn't know Father could smile this much.

Yes.

Thank you.

If not for you,

I would have ended up at my mom's

after staying at dingy motels.

My mom would have lost it,

and I would have given up

and divorced Sanggu.

I'm grateful to you

for coming to me.

Why did you get dressed up to come here?

To impress me?

This is how I always dress.

Good thinking.

Life is very short.

You two are a match made in heaven.

That's up for debate.

He's the only one I ever married, so who knows?

Go on. Go.

Spend time together and talk to each other a lot,

okay?

Will do.

Mother,

I'll call you.

Oh, my. It's like we'll never see each other again.

Thank you for the food.

You're welcome.

Drive safe, okay?

Bye, Mother.

Bye.

Get this too.

Yes, okay.

Drive safe.

- Bye, Mother. / - Bye.

Let's go.

We're off then.

Yes.

Drive safe, okay?

Will do, Mother.

Jonghwa.

Yes. They just left.

Yes. Minhui said she would call you.

Hospital?

We're really going?

Why aren't you getting in?

For real?

How have you changed?

Really?

You really want me to do that too?

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay, okay.

Ms. Oh, please.

What is it?

Okay?

I'm only giving you a chance to prove yourself.

Don't waste your chance.

Yes, ma'am.

How would I dare defy you?

Off we go.

Geum Sanggu!

Sorry, sorry.

Do better.

Seriously.

Hey!

So what do you do on your days off?

I watch movies, read...

I usually stay at home.

Aren't you lonely?

Pardon?

No, not really.

Oh, come on. I'm sure you're very lonely.

You're divorced and your son doesn't live with you.

Isn't that why you're on this blind date?

You seem bored,

so let's cut to the chase.

We're not kids. At our age,

there's no need to beat around the bush, right?

Very well.

What are you getting at?

It's not like either of us are in want of money.

We're looking to remarry out of loneliness, right?

We don't want to grow old alone

and come across as flawed.

I like you, Dr. Gi.

You are good-looking too.

On paper, we seem to be good match,

so let's travel together

to see if we're compatible.

How about this weekend?

What do I know about you to travel with you?

Oh.

I upset you.

Sorry. I don't like to dally.

But I think we can trim down

the process.

Have awkward dinners and go to movies at our age?

Let's not waste time.

Let's assume you played coy,

and let's assume I was insistent.

So where to?

Sea? Mountain?

Then let's do this.

Let's assume we went, let's assume we fought,

and let's assume we broke up.

Excuse me.

Who does he think he is,

assuming this and assuming that?

I should have just punched him.

At our age?

I'm only in my 40s.

How dare he lump me into his age group?

Mom, I couldn't stand him.

What?

I'm intimidating?

He doesn't like stuck-up women?

I can't stand him because he's a loser.

He's vulgar too.

He bragged about how rich he was for an hour.

Enough already, Mom.

I'll just live alone.

Hello.

Hello.

Are you going out?

A quick errand.

Ijae is at our place with Sol.

Okay. I'll fetch him now.

Okay then.

Um,

have I offended you?

Pardon? Of course not.

You seem to be avoiding me.

You sent Sol up alone this morning.

Well, the truth is,

while I appreciate that you drove me to

the funeral parlor and waited outside out of concern,

I was such a baby.

I was too ashamed and embarrassed

to see you.

Anyway, thanks to you,

the funeral went well.

Albeit belatedly, thank you.

There's no need.

As I said before,

you don't have to put on a happy face for me.

I would rather you didn't.

Okay.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm okay.

No, not yet.

But I really am getting better.

It's not all pretense.

That's not what I meant.

I know.

I appreciate your concern.

You didn't get me twisted fried dough today?

Oh, not today.

I'm kidding.

You're not my twisted fried dough supplier.

I have some nerve, don't I?

I should go.

It's red bean paste buns today.

Pardon?

To change it up a bit.

You are hilarious.

I am?

Yes. You're a real hoot sometimes.

Thank you for the buns.

You're welcome.

I can't wait for Honeypot to be born

and call me "Daddy."

It will say "Mommy" first.

I'm a little thirsty.

You are?

There's a convenience store.

I'll get you water.

No.

Ice cream.

Isn't this near Mother's home?

It is.

We walked a lot.

Aren't you tired?

A little.

Then should we get ice cream and have it at Mother's?

- Okay. / - Call her.

There is no answer. Connecting to voicemail...

She's not answering.

No?

Let's call her again on the way.

Okay.

- Let's go. / - Go.

- Mother. / - Mom.

Is she out?

But the lights are on.

Is she not home?

Heon, put the ice cream in the freezer.

Okay.

Mother, it's me and Heon.

Mother, you're not in here?

Mother?

What?

- Mother, are you okay? / - Mom's not home?

Just a second.

Why? What is it?

Why is the door locked?

Hang on.

Just a sec.

What's going on?

Are you okay?

What do you want?

Min-a, what's wrong?

Oh, no.
