I've missed you.

Long time no see.

[Episode 13: Attitude Towards What We Love Too Much]

Over here.

Why did you suddenly want to see me? You came all the way to my office.

It's about our family meeting.

Do you think it'll be possible?

Your mother's sick.

What meeting?

I heard you want to have a small wedding.

We have so many people to invite.

But if the number of guests is too different for the two sides,

it won't look nice.

I'm sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about.

Hyun-jae told me yesterday that you're getting married.

What do you mean?

I guess it was just his idea.

But are you going to marry him?

I'll be honest with you.

If you're not thinking of marrying him,

let Hyun-jae go.

We know your situation.

I know you're in no place to get married right now.

Your brother is young, and your mother is sick.

You're the breadwinner of the family.

I'm not saying this to upset you.

It's just that if you get married without plans,

it'll be tough on both sides.

You know I'm saying this out of concern, don't you?

Yes.

-But, you know... -Yes?

Even if you say it nicely, something hurtful

will still be hurtful.

My pride

was just hurt.

I'll get going for today.

Hey. Young-hee.

[Love is definitely not easy.]

[I have yet to solve the countless problems]

[that arise]

[after you find your other half.]

Do you have something to say?

Why are you standing there in front of someone else's home?

I'm not doing this because I want to.

Lady, are you someone strange?

No.

I'm not someone strange,

and I'm not that old.

Okay.

I'm not watching.

Mom! There's a strange lady outside our house!

I told you I'm not a strange lady!

Sure.

I guess it's strange.

I can't even ring his doorbell when I saw a woman go in.

Woo-yeon.

I thought I was hearing things because I heard your voice.

You're really here.

Is someone here?

Hands off. My girlfriend is really strong.

What brings you here unannounced?

What?

Well...

I was nearby.

I'm sorry. I didn't know he had a girlfriend.

I see.

It's okay.

Who is she?

I'm Kwon Yu-ra.

Oh, I see.

Don't stand here. You should come in.

No, no.

I...

You have a guest.

I'll just go.

Well...

Wait just a minute. I'll drive you.

It's okay. You have a guest over.

You don't have to mind me.

What are you doing? Hurry up and drive her home.

No, no. I can go alone.

I have somewhere to drop by too.

Bye.

I'll get going.

I'll call you.

If you want.

Woo-yeon, will you give me your number?

Why are you getting my girlfriend's number?

I don't have any friends in Korea except for him.

You should call me if you get bored.

Okay.

Thank you.

Aren't you going to ask me why?

Why you suddenly decided to do commercial photography?

I came here because I was curious about that,

but the answer was just here.

It's because of Woo-yeon, isn't it?

I want to be with her.

Really?

I'll connect you to a Korean agency.

They have several famous models,

and they're pretty big. It'd be best to work as a photographer there.

Enough talking about work. Let's be friends now.

Have you been well?

I'm fine. Thank you, and you?

Gosh. Really?

About what?

I heard an airline wants to sponsor you.

They want to use your work in their advertisements.

Are you sure you're fine after

losing that opportunity?

How did you know?

I know someone on their marketing team.

I answered you, so you should answer me.

I think I'll be fine.

Are you going to make Woo-yeon uncomfortable with that face?

If you meet someone with an uncomfortable heart,

that person can feel it too.

Don't struggle alone and talk to Woo-yeon about it.

It's not just your work. It's about the both of you now.

[The person you have reached is not available.]

[Farmed Jin-ju]

[Tonight]

Is Jin-ju busy?

-You're here. -Hey.

I made sure to close the door properly.

The air conditioning won't leak.

No, it's not that.

Did you come alone?

Yes.

-I want a beer. -Okay.

Why do you look so down?

Can a man and a woman

be friends?

Hey.

[As long as there are drinks and nights, no man and woman can be friends.]

But... Why not?

Friendships can be strong.

Do you think drinks and nights can break it apart?

If a man and a woman are friends,

they're either both really ugly,

they both have partners,

or one side is just suffering patiently.

But you're friends with Jin-ju. We're friends too.

Didn't Jin-ju

talk about me?

What about you?

Come on. Jin-ju isn't the type to talk behind someone's back.

Forget it.

Hey. When a girl doesn't tell her friends she's checking out a guy,

or if she knows that a guy likes her, what's the reason?

It's either she doesn't care at all,

or is embarrassed.

It has to be one or the other.

You came just in time.

The soup's almost ready. Go wash your hands so we can eat.

Why did you cook? It's too tiring.

No reason.

I don't have anything to do at home.

You know you have chemotherapy tomorrow, right?

I took a half-day, so I'll come to get you in the afternoon.

Will I survive if I get chemotherapy?

You should.

You're getting the treatment so you can survive.

Do you

want me to live long?

I didn't want to live long.

Because you don't want to burden us?

But this is too early.

I don't care about everything else, but I wanted to be beside you

when you're pregnant

and when you give birth.

Your grandma passed early.

On a normal day,

I'd tell myself

I never had

a mom to begin with.

But when I had you,

I missed my mom desperately.

After I gave birth to you,

I couldn't stop crying

from missing my mom.

I don't want

my daughter to cry like that.

Mom, I...

I think I'll need you more than that.

So can you please not die?

I want to live too.

Yes.

Then live.

Ms. Han, how about some pho for lunch today?

[Prosecutor Han Jin-ju]

There's a really good place just across the street named Tendon.

Sure.

What's "Tendon"?

Tendon. Cow tendon.

Right. Tendon.

Gosh, she startled me.

What's the matter?

I don't like tendons. I'm allergic to it.

I didn't know someone could be allergic to tendons.

[Sang-hyeok: No matter how busy you are, make sure you eat.]

[Han Jin-ju. No matter how busy you are, make sure you eat.]

[Good luck.]

"Gone, gone, everyone has gone to the other shore."

What are you doing here?

I was waiting for you.

Why didn't you call?

Your lights were off. I figured you'd come soon.

Why did you come?

Because I missed you.

Yu-ra is a model.

She's quite famous abroad, and she has connections here.

I see.

I met her to ask her for work.

I'm planning to work as a commercial photographer in Korea.

Does that mean you won't leave anymore?

Are you going to stay here?

Are you happy I'm staying?

Of course.

Yes.

I'm not leaving.

Kyung Woo-yeon.

Mom. Dad.

Hello.

Why are you going on your knees? Just sit properly.

It's not like he did anything wrong.

Do you want to side with the guy who made you cry?

By the way, Mom. I've been curious.

How did you know that?

What a thug.

Seriously.

It looks like we're seeing you regularly this way.

Having a crush is harsh on her.

Don't go.

Don't go.

Don't go.

Please like me back.

Wake up. I'm your mom.

Park Mi-sook.

Mom.

Mom.

Mom, your daughter was dumped again.

I'm not garbage, but I was dumped.

Let's put her away.

-Okay. -Okay.

Hey. Come here.

One, two, three.

I won't let

the guy who made my daughter cry hang around her.

I'm really sorry I made her cry.

I regret it a lot, and I'm trying to be good to her.

A few words out of your mouth won't fix the scratches on her heart.

By the way, Dad...

You don't have the right to say that.

What did you say?

He did wrong before we dated.

You married Mom, but you're still not good to her.

You punk.

You got confused about Mom's birthday last time,

and you made her ask whose birthday you confused hers with.

Also, the last time you two went on a couples' outing,

you helped the lady Mom hates the most when she was taking a side dish.

It really upset Mom.

Also... Yes.

Five years ago at Grandma's house...

Stop.

Why?

There's a lot more.

That's not important right now.

He didn't do anything wrong to me since we started dating.

It's possible to do wrong when we're strangers.

But becoming complacent after the person becomes yours

is worse.

Woo-yeon.

Why are you scolding someone else's precious son?

Why are you scolding my man?

If anything, I'll be the one to scold him or talk bad about him.

I have a bigger share of him than you two.

Let's go.

I... I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

I'll be going.

That brat.

She's obsessed with a boy and doesn't care about her dad.

Children are useless.

Isn't that right, honey?

You're useless too.

Honey.

Mi-sook.

Sook.

My woman is so strong.

Sorry for making you cry.

So you have to be good to me.

By my side, every single day. Okay?

You have to be good to me every day without fail.

Every day.

I'll be good to you.

-Sir. -Why did you come out again?

Let's go.

No. I'm not going.

I'm going to stay with Soo.

It's late, so you should go inside.

Not you.

Young man. Do you drink?

Pardon?

Me?

But...

What are you doing?

It's bad luck...

Sorry, sir.

-Sit. -Yes, sir.

I don't like you.

I don't like you because my daughter cried for ten years because she liked you.

I don't like you because you said you didn't like my precious daughter.

I'm sorry, sir. I realized how I felt too late.

I like Woo-yeon now. A lot.

Will you make her cry again?

I don't make promises I can't keep.

I can't control my own feelings.

I can't be sure of hers.

She may cry some days,

but I'll do my best to be good to her.

Why are you smiling?

I said I don't like you.

Sorry, sir.

I'm sure every parent feels that way,

but Woo-yeon is my world.

Don't destroy my world.

Yes, sir. Please demolish me if I do.

You are very witty.

I'm quite intelligent.

-Pour me one. -Yes, sir.

Cheers.

Woo-yeon, I think I'm in.

I think so.

How did you win him over?

I didn't do much.

I answered his questions honestly

and made some corny jokes.

That's it. My dad loves corny jokes.

I see.

What else? What else did you say?

That I like Woo-yeon

very much.

[I like you a lot, Woo-yeon.]

I love you

a lot.

I love you.

What?

I said I love you.

Jin-ju.

Why did you come back?

I came to see your face. Won't you let me see it?

Did you not sleep?

Not much. The customers left late last night.

I'm here to deliver lunch to our prosecutor.

I said not to do this.

I'm doing it because I want to, so don't stop me.

Finish it all, okay?

The chicory is just decoration, so don't eat it.

You're acting like my mom.

-Jin-ju. -Hey.

-Are you going out to lunch? -Yes.

Who's he? Boyfriend?

No.

Lunch delivery?

-No, I'm... -Yes, he's delivering my lunch.

Thank you.

That lunchbox.

May I get your card? The food looked good last time.

Sorry, but we haven't opened yet.

I'll come back with our card once we do.

Okay, then.

Okay. Have a nice day.

-See you later. -Okay.

All you had to do was say he was a friend.

Why did you say yes?

Why did you say he was a delivery boy?

He has pride too.

It's either she doesn't care at all,

or is embarrassed.

It's one or the other.

Are you done? Let's go.

Mother. I'm here.

Why? You must be busy.

School's out, so I'm not.

Why did you come?

The treatment must've been hard enough. It's too hard for her to take a cab.

I'll help you, Mother.

-Be careful. -Okay.

Hold on.

[CEO Kim Han-soo]

[Details of "The World" Project]

[The love I thought would last forever ended.]

[A Summer Night's Dream]

Is there anything Kyung Woo-yeon can't do?

Why are you so capable too?

What?

Did you rush over to show me this?

Yes. I wanted to watch it with you.

Because it's my first drama title.

You're so pretty.

Don't do it.

You're so cute.

I said don't do it.

You don't like that?

I'm thirsty.

What do you want?

Orange juice.

Okay.

[Details of "The World" Project]

["The World" is a long-term project and the photos will be in our ads.]

[We'll respect your creative choices in this project of unprecedented scale.]

Here you go.

Thanks.

Take your time.

Even juice can make you sick.

Okay.

I wanted to help your mother.

I don't want you to see how I live, Hyun-jae.

You still don't trust me, Young-hee.

How can we marry in this situation?

Your oldest sister came to see me.

What did she say?

That marriage in my situation is a luxury

and if I don't want to marry you, I should let you go.

I'm sorry.

I'll tell her to apologize to--

What she said isn't wrong. She's right.

How can we marry in this situation?

Because the situation's like this.

I want to be by your side, as your husband and guardian.

I'll deal with my family.

- I'll sort out-- - How will you sort it out?

Will you scream in front of your parents?

Will you curse out your oldest sister?

If you turn against your family like that, would that make you feel good?

Forget about how you feel.

They paid to support you and they will support you in the future.

Can you give up all that?

I don't like the fact that you must give up something because of me,

and even if you do,

I don't want a man who has nothing.

Kim Young-hee.

Yes.

I'm that darned Kim Young-hee.

I'm Kim Young-hee who has nothing.

So I won't marry a man who has nothing.

You're getting emotional again.

I apologize for what my sister said. And I'll sort it out.

So don't get any bad ideas.

I'm not saying this because I'm emotional.

This is the real me.

The naive Kim Young-hee who smiled when we had no umbrella is gone.

I have to go.

[Oldest sister]

Where are you?

I will

marry Young-hee.

I will, even if you disapprove.

Even if you say it'll kill you,

I'll marry her.

Do you think you can live with love alone?

Try it. Marriage sometimes makes you think of love last.

Sometimes, love is more of a burden.

You should...

You apologize to Young-hee.

-How dare you-- -If it hadn't been for her,

I wouldn't be the teacher you wanted me to be.

I probably wouldn't even live like a human being.

I was a lowlife, and the person

who made me study, dream, and act like a decent human

was Young-hee and you know that.

Even if it hadn't been for her,

you'd have grown up well because you're a good boy.

I'm not good at all.

I pretended to be good to appeal to Young-hee.

That's why

I'm not wasting my life right now.

Hey. Are we doing this for our own good?

We're doing this for your sake...

I'll return the security deposit you paid for my apartment.

If you say I don't acknowledge how you raised me,

I'll drive people or work part-time

to pay that back too.

You'll only ruin your health. Why would you do such a thing?

I don't mind living like that for the rest of my life.

I'm sorry to say that

I can live

without seeing you again.

But without Young-hee,

I'll really die.

[Tonight]

Hi.

Hello.

I enjoyed the food.

Good.

I wasn't picky. I ate everything.

Even the decorative chicory.

Well done.

I'm sorry about earlier.

I got flustered when he asked if we were dating and...

It's okay.

What will you make tomorrow?

I won't come anymore.

What?

Sorry for bothering you until now.

I thought I could be a transfer station,

but you don't need that because you have an expensive car.

So this is it?

Yes.

You said you'd seduce me as best you could.

Is this your best?

Isn't this right?

Okay. That's great.

Bye.

[Tonight]

Why are you pouring soju in this?

Hey, what are you doing?

I don't have an expensive car now.

I need a transfer station or a last stop.

Go on liking me.

Please keep liking me.

I like you too.

Will you say something--

[Her chemotherapy includes a drug called oxaliplatin,]

[and a side-effect is that she can't touch cold objects.]

[Not just unable to touch, but it feels like a stabbing pain.]

[It's a side-effect the patients dread.]

[Some people can't even touch room temperature glass or metals.]

[Her skin will dry up, causing nosebleeds, so maintain humidity.]

[Hyun-jae's oldest sister]

Hello. Why did you call?

[I wanted to apologize.]

I'm sorry.

I just felt so frustrated.

Were you very hurt?

Not really.

[Love is so strange.]

When it's about my family,

I become so selfish and mean.

I'm sorry, Young-hee.

[Nothing you said was wrong.]

Right. Thank you for understanding.

[The photos will be used in our ads.]

[We'll respect your creative choices in this project of unprecedented scale.]

He said he won't go anywhere.

He never asked me to let him go.

So

I don't have to ask him about it first.

[Yu-ra]

[It's Kwon Yu-ra. Let's hang out.]

Do you have a particular style in mind?

I'm meeting someone later.

It must be someone important.

Who are you meeting?

My boyfriend's

other woman?

Just a moment.

Director!

[Close at 22:00]

You're beautiful today, Woo-yeon.

Did I not put in enough effort?

Not really.

I don't embarrass you because I'm pretty, right?

What is it?

Oh, was I too honest?

Why did you ask to see me today?

To have fun.

I want us to be friends.

What do women do to have fun in Korea?

They're pretty. You should get these.

No, thanks.

Then I'll buy them.

That is so cute.

I think this place will look great in a photo.

Come here.

-No, thanks. -Get over here.

Three, two, one.

Three, two, one.

Three, two, one.

You're going way too far behind. Three, two, one.

We look nice, don't we?

Three, two, one. The last shot.

Cheers.

This is so nice.

Do you have something to say?

Didn't you have something to say?

Me? I don't.

Should I say something?

Well...

I thought you wanted to talk about Soo.

Why? Did he do something wrong?

Why does he always mess up?

It's not that.

How long have you known Soo?

Since he was in his mom's tummy?

No? Is it since he was part of his dad?

I see.

Do you

like Lee Soo?

Do you

like Lee Soo?

I told you

that I'm straightforward.

If you're asking if I have feelings for him,

then my answer is yes.

But that's just it.

It's not at all like love.

I just sometimes get confused if I like him

as a guy or as a friend.

Don't worry. I don't want to sway someone who has a girlfriend,

and even if I tried, he won't budge.

Was I being rude?

Not at all.

You're right.

It is rude,

so why am I not offended?

What is it?

It's amazing.

It's amazing that Soo likes someone that much,

but at the same time, it's understanding because it's you.

You were the one person whose name he mentioned.

I see.

Also,

photography was his everything,

but he says you're the most precious to him now.

He says he won't leave you

no matter how great an offer he gets.

I'm home--

Mom.

-It hurts... -Are you okay?

It hurts.

Here. Are you okay?

No.

I felt really nauseous.

So I wanted to have something refreshing to eat.

But my hand...

Why does my hand hurt so much?

Gosh.

You'll get hurt. Get away.

I don't even have to get you used to the idea of me being gone.

Everything I do is a nuisance.

Stop that.

I never...

did anything with any responsibility anyway.

But now, I've become utterly useless.

Please, Mom.

It's better for you

if I were gone.

I only make you cry.

I'm not crying.

Why did you come? I said you didn't have to.

Because I missed you.

I'm going right back after I buy this.

I get to look at you while you buy this.

What about dinner?

Did you eat?

I have no appetite.

No. You can't skip dinner too.

Let's go eat.

I have no appetite.

You have to eat regardless.

I said not. Why do you...

Sorry.

Are you still mad at me? Is that why?

Or is it because things are too hard?

What's the difference?

If it's the prior, I'll apologize.

If it's the latter,

I'll make you smile.

Seriously, are you stupid?

How could I be a teacher if I were stupid?

Are you stupid?

What?

See? Made you smile. You smiled.

I did not.

Come now. Yes, you did.

I did not.

You're smiling now. See?

[I smiled briefly that day,]

[and that was why I decided to leave him.]

[Because I realized]

[that Hyun-jae loved me as someone he was nursing.]

It's Saturday tomorrow.

Let's go on a date.

Sounds good. Is there anywhere you want to go?

Somewhere we don't go often.

Somewhere we wouldn't go outside of special occasions?

Okay. I'll look for something.

Okay.

[Young-hee]

Hi, Young-hee.

I thought Hyun-jae and I were stacking blocks,

but they were dominos.

You stack them in order to knock them down.

I realized

we stacked them for too long.

Did something happen with him?

It's always me.

I'm always the problem.

Stop saying that. Nothing's wrong with you.

Wrong.

I'm a total mess.

Young-hee.

Hyun-jae

wanted to get married,

but he held back because of me.

I made him hold himself back for way too long.

Hyun-jae

wants to marry you.

Because it's you.

Yes, that's right.

I made him that way. Me.

I turned him into an idiot who lives only for me.

I made him that way,

but I can't take responsibility for it.

I hate myself for it.

If only one side makes all the sacrifices in the name of love,

that's the beginning of misery.

One person is miserable because he has to make sacrifices,

and the other is miserable because she feels guilty.

It's so strange.

You made the sacrifice in order to be happy,

but neither person becomes happy.

Nothing else remains

but misery.

Are you looking for anything in particular?

Shoes for a man in his late 20s.

I think he'll have to walk long and far,

so something nice and comfortable, please.

Why did we get a divorce? Gosh.

I don't know.

What time is the movie?

Five o'clock.

If you're done, shall we start heading over?

Okay.

[Han Cinema]

[Watch movies on weekends with your mileage points.]

Should we get some popcorn?

What's wrong?

Why here of all places?

We came here often when we were dating.

You asked why we got divorced, right?

What?

Yes.

This is where I decided to divorce you.

Are you okay, sweetie?

Hey, lady. Watch where you're going.

What was that? You--

Sorry.

Are you okay?

Let's go.

Why did you apologize?

Why bother making a fuss? It'll just be a pain.

If it's such a pain, why did you come to the movies?

Can't you just let it slide for today?

It was really hard for me to leave work.

You've been in a bad mood, so I wanted to take you to a movie.

Must my moods fit in your schedule too?

Then show me your schedule ahead of time.

Let me know when I can feel what I want.

Like the schedule will be correct.

It's not like I enjoy being buried in work.

Did I make you do it?

No one made you do it.

Let's drop it.

-Drop what? -Let's stop!

Fine.

Let's stop everything.

[The man who said he'd pluck the stars from the sky for me]

[Han Cinema]

shoved me to the bottom of the list.

I was lonely and hurt.

I couldn't endure the hurt of seeing the love evaporating.

That's why we got divorced.

It never evaporated.

Regardless of how you felt, that's how it felt for me.

The recipient is the one who discerns what they feel.

Won-jung.

I haven't heard you say that name in a very long time.

Furthermore, I don't like Korean food or movies.

You used to.

I'm sure you did,

I liked you.

I did things that you enjoyed with you.

You shouldn't glue together something that shattered and reuse it,

but I forgot again.

I can't join you for the movie today.

Let's continue just being friends.

Bye.

Also, photography was his everything,

but he says you're the most precious to him now.

He says he won't leave you

no matter how great an offer he gets.

[If only one side makes all the sacrifices in the name of love,]

that's the beginning of misery.

One person is miserable because he has to make sacrifices,

and the other is miserable because she feels guilty.

Did you know that the same Chinese character is used

for "turtle" and "explode"?

Really? I didn't know.

People look only at the scars.

They don't care how long a turtle lives,

how fast they are in the water,

or anything like that.

They look only at the scar on the turtle's shell.

Young-hee.

I've always been poor

and miserable, and I always will be.

So...

get out of my misery.

What?

Let's...

break up, Hyun-jae.

[There are various people in the world,]

[and each person loves in their own way.]

[Some people]

[let the other person go because they love them too much.]

-Why didn't you tell me? -What?

I heard you got an offer from an airline.

That's a great opportunity.

How did you find out?

I saw your email last time.

I see.

Actually, I was going to ask you.

You're going?

Yes.

How long will it take?

From a year and a half to two years.

That's like military service.

But you still want to go?

Yes, I want to go.

I wanted to give it up let it go, but I couldn't.

I know just how selfish I am being, but...

If you don't mind, will you go with me?

Go with me, Woo-yeon.

Okay.

I'll go with you.

[And some people say]

[you must hold on]

[because you love them so much.]

[There are countless ways to love,]

[and none of them are wrong.]

Did you change your mind?

About what?

Woo-yeon's boyfriend.

I thought you'd say over your dead body.

Why did you have a change of heart?

Just because.

That's not an answer.

Why? Did he grow on you after you drank with him?

Just because.

Woo-yeon likes him.

What can I do? My daughter likes him.

I have to give in.

What can you do? That's what it means to be a parent.

[Although there are countless people in the world,]

[although everyone loves in their own way,]

[there is one thing that doesn't change.]

[The one that always gives in]

[it the one who loves the other more.]

[More Than Friends]

I'm going to take a trip.

[Did he ask you to go with him?]

[The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg]

[I'm not going only because he asked me to.]

[I'm thinking of writing about my travels once I get back.]

-You can meet them this weekend. -Okay.

I broke up with Hyun-jae.

[Why did they break up? Why?]

[I don't understand why we have to break up.]

I'm asking one last time. Do you still want to break up?

[Yes, I do.]

[We won't have to be apart anymore.]

[You're right. My mom says to come over at six o'clock tomorrow.]

[Okay. I won't be late.]

What is it?

The main character of the drama our production company is producing...

I'm not going.

I can't go on the trip.
