Original subtitles

It looked so peaceful.

I thought, "The weather's so nice today."

That's when I saw the sky...

and started to wonder...

why I lived every day like a lunatic.

I don't think I can make today's flight.

I'm very sorry.

Yes.

I know that.

I'll tender...

my resignation soon.

Choi Soo Ah.

You're going the opposite direction.

Aren't you flying today?

Is it my turn to babysit Hyo Eun today?

Isn't it tomorrow?

You don't have to go to Hyo Eun.

Are you...

Yes.

I quit.

Are you okay with it?

I'm not sure yet.

I don't feel a thing.

Did they process the documents?

I did the right thing, right?

Of course.

Being a flight attendant isn't an easy job.

People have no idea how hard it is.

It's frustrating both physically and mentally.

You made a good decision.

Let's go inside.

You must be hungry.

Hyo Eun's all by herself.

I have to make her breakfast...

and take her to the hospital.

They really should be more appreciative.

I'm not saying this because of you.

I feel your pain.

I'd go home after a flight...

to find the fridge empty...

and the house messy.

I'm really fine.

Don't be like that.

You have a good life.

You should have hung in there a little longer.

(EPISODE 9)

Mum?

That's me.

What about the flight?

- I'm not going. - Why not?

I quit.

I'll go get changed and take you to the hospital.

Who told you to quit?

I said I'll take care of myself.

I didn't ask you to quit.

Fine, I'll go to school.

I wasn't asking for this.

I'm going to school.

You don't have to go.

Let's take the day off. Both of us.

Let's not worry about anything.

Your resignation will be processed in a few days.

Thank you for your hard work.

Have a safe trip.

I quit my job.

When I break up with my work,

whom do I have to talk to?

What do I have to say?

Mum.

Let's go.

Mum.

(ON THE WAY TO THE AIRPORT)

Does this mean your Ms Go's son?

Yes.

That would make the girl her granddaughter.

The girl came looking for Mr Mun.

Annie came to see Mr Mun?

He's been working here for a long time...

until he settled in Boryeong last year.

Could I meet with him?

Can you come back again tomorrow?

He will be visiting tomorrow.

I can.

This is it.

Mr Mun wanted me to give this to Ms Go's son.

She'd come in here whenever she visited.

She said she'd stay for a little while.

I think she was in here for a minute or two.

Maybe she knew this was her grandmother's.

Hey.

Is this your room?

- Yes. - What about that woman?

She's in this one.

Darn it. I'm over here.

Captain Park is over there.

Get a new room even if you need to make a scene.

I'm good at that.

I'll get the room upstairs along with Hye Won.

Listen to me carefully.

We're out of this place after two days.

Don't run into her in the meanwhile.

Is that how it is?

Are Doh Woo and Hyo Eun's mum together?

Gosh, why would Doh Woo do that?

What are you talking about? We don't know for sure.

It would be a disaster if it was.

Captain Park works out in the morning...

and goes out for a walk at eight in the afternoon.

Don't you go near the pub.

The pub? No way.

Gosh.

This is nerve-racking.

Act natural.

What was that in the elevator?

The same goes for you.

Why is he going out now?

How should I know?

Are you protesting?

- I'm sorry? - Are you saying...

you don't want to live like this for six months?

Let's talk about it then.

Don't go about it like that.

It's not how you think it is.

What then?

What would you quit your job for?

Mother. Why are you angry?

I'll get discharged in a few days.

- You're here. - Hello.

I can babysit Hyo Eun. Everything will go as planned.

It'll take around two months for you to get well.

It's not like I can't babysit her.

You're talking nonsense.

I try hard to get better because I feel bad for you.

She's right.

She bends her legs all the time now.

I wanted to take responsibility for Hyo Eun.

I'm not glad I got hurt.

I try so hard to get better because I feel stupid.

But what?

Will you be like this?

Mother, this isn't anything for you to be angry about.

Why wouldn't I be?

We'll go back to Gayang-dong when the paperwork...

with her school is finished.

Get out. Both of you.

She's unbelievable.

She got angry at you for working,

but now, she's mad that you're quitting.

It's so hard to be a working mum in Korea.

That's not for you to say.

I was just angry.

You're a part of this, too.

Listen to you.

I told you not to quit because I knew you'd blame me.

Why is everyone so angry with my problem?

You have the last boss left.

Dad.

I don't even want to imagine this.

My gosh. Let's go somewhere...

and get some air.

Should we play football near the Han River?

Not there. Somewhere far away.

I want to go away for a few days and pretend...

that I'm not here because of a flight.

Are you okay?

Mum.

One more ride.

You can go. I'm tired.

Can you go on 10-hour flights, but not that?

No, I can't.

Wait for me. I'll ride as much as I want today.

Go ahead.

I did take 10-hour flights.

It's time for the take-off.

I need to be comforted.

I just quit my job.

What happened?

Someone was hanging their laundry...

and she looked so peaceful.

I suddenly realised I lived such a difficult life.

Is this a good reason?

I was very desperate when I quit,

but now that I say it, it sounds so menial.

I can't believe you envied someone doing laundry.

Good job.

What did I do well?

Quitting your job...

and calling me.

How can I comfort you?

There seems to be...

something special about this room.

I feel like I'm away from the whole world.

It's just like you.

Stay here.

- What is that? - The first step of my comfort was...

the old house, and the second step is...

doing laundry.

Are we hanging the laundry?

You said you envied it.

You can hang them all you want.

I've never done this in a yard.

We have all this space. Make big movements.

Like this.

This feels completely different from my small veranda.

Is Hyo Eun by herself?

You should go, then.

Do you know what you say the most often?

"Hyo Eun is by herself."

How free could we be from our families?

I guess we're at an age...

where we say goodbye to the old things in our lives.

We quit our jobs...

and...

I mean, it's such a time.

Thankfully, you have...

someone here for you.

Isn't that great?

Choi Soo Ah, Suh Doh Woo.

Choi Soo Ah, Park Jin Seok.

Suh Doh Woo, that scary woman.

I'm not sure who's behind all this,

but what a great work!

Park Jin Seok, Song Mi Jin.

Don't make such a mistake again.

Let's grab a drink in our old place.

Let's just go back to our hotel.

I like this place.

- I know him. - Who?

Why? Will you tell on me again?

What are you saying?

I'll go order something.

Thanks.

How was I supposed to know this was the pub?

My goodness.

I'm at the pub. You have to call Captain Park out.

Didn't I tell you not to wander about?

Hello.

We took the same flight.

I hope you had a nice flight.

I did, thanks to you.

Do you know...

a man by the name of Suh Doh Woo?

Malaysia?

Thanks.

How do you know Suh Doh Woo?

He's my husband.

Hello.

I'm sorry about Annie.

Your wife helped us out a lot.

Doh Woo was very grateful.

She probably did what she had to do.

That's what Doh Woo said, too.

Excuse me.

- Hello? - I'm in front of your room.

We should talk here.

My crew is all gathered together.

I think I'll have to go join them.

Goodbye.

Enjoy your time here.

I picked out some of them.

- Oh my goodness. - What?

Soo Ah quit her job.

She didn't say anything like that.

Something's going on.

I should bring the news to him right away.

Who are you talking about?

Someone.

What did you want to talk about?

You're the one who wanted to see me first.

I wanted to get some beer together.

Still, you wanted to see me.

Were you embarrassed to see me down there?

What are you worried about after all these years?

It sure is embarrassing.

It's not the same as my place.

I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

I'll get going. I want to get some more rest.

I didn't know there was innocence left in you.

That's funny.

For us, this isn't really a hotel room.

It's more of an office.

Is that why you stayed up all night with the crew?

You can relax. Nothing's going to happen between us.

I don't go for older women.

I'd rather not get physical with them.

I feel like I'm alone in a hotel room...

with my friend's husband.

I can't stay here.

I saw Suh Doh Woo's wife just now.

I've never even met the guy...

and everyone around me is talking about him.

What did she say?

What do you want? A beer?

What are you doing here?

Get in. We're all on the first floor.

Do you have any idea what I just saw?

After marriage, you're not claustrophobic any more.

Marriage has been good on you.

You sound just like my mum.

That has nothing to do with the marriage.

It's because I have higher self-esteem now.

You flirt with girls to boost your self-esteem.

So what? Did that make you a better family man?

Of course.

That's the way life is.

How do you still remember that?

How could I not?

You got me worried every year...

when we had to take the fitness tests.

It was just a phase.

A phase?

Really?

Is this how you're calling it?

What are we doing in this room, then?

You should be flattered.

You won't get another chance like this ever again.

How can you be so self-centred?

I'm sitting next to my past mistake.

How do you think I feel right now?

See? I knew you were lying.

Why didn't you resist me?

Who are you calling a past mistake?

Gosh, Park Jin Seok.

You deserve it.

I'm the crazy one to have pitied you.

Who pities whom now?

I pity you.

You have no idea what's going around you...

because you're so self-centred.

You pity me?

I won't take that from anyone.

You're the one who wanted to see me here.

Do you take me for a fool?

I can drink wine and still keep control of myself,

but that's not the case for you.

You're only drinking water.

You're afraid you might get emotional after a drink.

That's much better.

Let's be perfectly honest.

You're jealous of Soo Ah because she lives with me.

Pity me?

I don't think so.

I'm so jealous of Soo Ah.

She has it all.

I wish I could be more like her.

Why would you be jealous of someone like her?

You're beautiful and don't have any strings attached.

You're a much better woman.

You're right about me. I'm self-centred.

I don't have anyone around me but my wife.

That's who I am.

Can't we just...

enjoy the time with someone you pity?

Are you serious?

Why should I?

Are you hitting on me again?

You're the only person...

who I can stop being pretentious around.

Is it weird that...

I can't talk about my deepest feelings...

except with the woman I lived with for a few years?

Does it make me a criminal to have a conversation...

with the woman I used to live with?

I know you feel the same way about me.

What's the problem here?

Choi Soo Ah is my wife and you are...

I'm back at the hotel. Where are you?

Thanks for the wine.

I have to go.

I'm just curious.

Why would you marry someone and not care?

Why can't you talk to her about your deepest feelings?

Married couples should only share 51 percent.

Once they start sharing everything, it'll get messy.

You're the one I can share everything with.

Are you finished with me?

Don't think too much.

We should just follow our hearts.

What's your heart telling you?

Of all the women in the world,

Song Mi Jin makes me the most comfortable.

You know everything about me.

Why can't you be like that with me?

We could start seeing each other again.

You could call me over when you have nothing to do.

I don't want to argue with you.

Following my heart...

Be careful.

(STOP HERE)

Be careful.

Be careful. Be careful.

Why am I so tired?

I'm not sure how I managed to work.

- You're right. - Did you used to work? At where?

What do you think I did? Take a wild guess.

How do I know? I'll guess your name.

- I was a TV writer. - What?

Which show?

I mean, I was an aspiring TV writer, then I quit.

- Come on. - Come on.

Sure. We'll call you a TV writer. Why not?

- I heard you used to work, too. - Me?

- Yes. - I worked in a trading company.

I worked for about four years.

I quit because I just wanted to raise my kids.

What? Was I the only stay home mum since my 20s?

You had the best life.

We're all the same after we quit.

Look at Hyo Eun's mum. She was my junior.

Were you her senior?

At work?

She was the most respected senior.

My goodness. Where did you two work?

Take a guess. You probably can't even imagine.

This coffee shop is a hint, too.

We ate brunch all the time in a place like this.

Melbourne is famous for brunch.

An insurance company?

- Were you a cook? - Pyramid scheme?

We were stewardesses.

Were you really a stewardess?

I guess she used to be pretty.

- What happened? - Stop it.

We don't need names or experiences.

I'm just someone's mum who gets these good grades.

That's why they're crazy about their kids' education.

It's their title.

Aren't you going back to Gayang-dong?

I have to talk to Captain Park first.

I haven't told him that I quit.

Did you quit before even talking to him?

Yes.

What could he say? You quit because of Hyo Eun.

He may welcome your choice.

Where's your uniform now?

My baggage is still unpacked.

I haven't organised anything.

Keep it around.

Whenever I feel frustrated, I try it on...

every now and then.

- Does it fit you? - No, I just throw it on.

Bye, then.

She came here alone on a bus...

after hearing what her grandma said.

She wanted to know her grandma's secret.

Why is this Grandma's secret?

What's behind this?

I do have one guess on what that is.

What is it?

Maybe she secretly liked me.

Couldn't that be her secret?

- I don't think so. - You didn't fall for that.

This is the first piece she has ever made.

She never wanted to study.

She stayed up all night doing needlework.

She loved working with her hands.

That's how she got into knots.

After she made that,

she was afraid her mum would get mad.

That's why she brought it here.

She told me it was a secret...

and that I couldn't tell anyone.

And now,

it's not even a big secret.

Hey, look at that.

That's a magical pot.

If you tell your secret in there,

your secret will be kept inside.

I don't want that.

I don't want it to be kept.

What do you want, then?

I want the secret to be passed on.

So that it won't be a secret any more.

I want Mum, Dad,

me, Grandma and Grandpa all to be happy.

I'll be a good girl.

Please let my family be happy.

Please let Mum, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa be...

Then she asked...

if I can let her father work here.

- Me? - No.

Do you want me to let him work here?

He also does pottery.

He can't be with me now because of work.

He travels often.

That's why he can't look after me.

But he really loves pottery, he's nice...

and I guarantee his skills.

Is this your secret?

You can't even tell my grandma about this.

Don't tell her about my real dad.

My dad loves sceneries like this.

What are you still looking for?

What is it?

Is it about Annie's biological dad?

Are you serious?

Annie went to see her dad and I dropped her off.

But like you said,

if this was all but her imagination,

who is this Annie...

that I believed was my daughter?

I don't want it to be just kept.

I want the secret to be passed on.

So that it won't be a secret any more.

(PLEASE PROTECT MY DAD.)

Thank you for everything you did for Annie.

Did you hear...

her secret?

I can't tell you.

Let me ask you just one thing.

I'm very curious.

If she wanted to protect and keep one thing,

what would it be?

Family.

She probably thought both families would be at peace...

if she kept lying well.

Both families would be at peace if she lied?

Two families?

That's probably her dad's side and us.

I'm not sure.

It looked like he didn't mention this.

I didn't exactly follow your conversation,

but Annie and her dad...

seemed to have lived together.

She said she left his family for hers...

and wanted to protect both.

(HAN RIVER WATERFRONT)

I came across this while cleaning up.

It's the photo of you that Annie had on her ceiling.

Please protect my dad.

She must've been in touch with her dad.

"I'll see you there on what day."

He must have contacted her in secret.

That's why Eun Woo waited for him there.

Let's find out how.

She either called him or sent an email.

Hye Won didn't raise her.

She just said she did.

I still can't believe she lied about so much,

but that's the only explanation.

Eun Woo lived with her dad all along,

then came here and...

Oh dear.

Why did she leave her dad...

to come and live here?

Be strong.

Don't defend her this time.

How did she silence the girl...

that she couldn't even tell you?

The more I think about it, the angrier...

and scared I feel.

Annie and her father...

seemed to have lived together.

I wasn't a good mother while I raised her.

I had her when I was 20...

and raised her alone.

I studied, worked and cared for her.

I tried to send her back...

then brought her back home.

Each time we both cried so much.

How am I to live with it...

if she wrote something horrid?

Do you know what's really scary?

Not being able to protect what's precious.

That's the worst.

If there were something she wanted to protect,

what would it be?

Family.

Maybe she thought that if...

she were a good liar, both families would be fine.

If she were a good liar...

both families would be fine?

Both families?

Would that be her father's...

and mine?

Doh Woo keeps on walking.

He's incredibly sad...

or incredibly tormented.

(WRONG PASSWORD)

Well done, everyone.

- Well done. - Good job.

Soo Ah's farewell party's tonight.

Please attend if you can.

What farewell party?

Didn't you know?

She resigned a few days ago.

Have a good day.

Will Soo Ah come?

We'll drink by ourselves if she doesn't show up.

I'll be there if she is.

Bye.

It looks pretty obvious to me.

This isn't it. This isn't how it's supposed to be.

It's so weird.

This isn't right.

Soo Ah's resignation...

Were you aware of it?

No.

If you're going home,

could you give me a lift?

I'm going to my mother's.

I'm glad the three bullies weren't at school today.

It was so peaceful today.

Who knows? Tomorrow might be terrible.

I'll have you transferred soon.

Mum.

It's him.

- Hello? - What's that about?

Did you resign?

Let's talk at home.

I won't ask again.

Did you resign?

I did.

Who said you could?

Don't you consider...

what drove me to quit?

Why are you...

so selfish when it comes to resigning as well?

I told you that Hyo Eun had problems at school.

When didn't she?

That's no excuse.

Kids beat her up and teased her.

She fainted while...

protesting for a girls' football club.

Have you seen her crouched...

in a corner for hours, too scared to go inside?

You saw and know nothing.

What do you think drove me to get off the bus?

Can you turn back on the way to the airport?

You wouldn't. You've never seen Hyo Eun struggle.

Soo Ah.

I no longer tolerate...

your selfish notifications.

Then don't.

Ms Hong found out that...

you lied about Ms Go's unfinished bracelet.

This, too, please.

Ji Eun.

Can I hitch a ride to your place?

My place? Mum told me to bring you to her gallery.

Get in.

I told her that you did amazingly in Sydney.

Just say you're sorry.

Doh Woo apologised already.

Let's just say you were overly eager.

- I apologise. - Hye Won.

Can't we...

keep things professional?

Eun Hee's gone, but you still have a mother-in-law.

She never told me to do so,

but I plan to take over as your mother-in-law.

If you give Doh Woo a hard time, I will come after you.

I heard you suspect him.

Let's just focus on work...

or trust Doh Woo completely.

I could deal with you easier if you'd decide.

Can't we concentrate on work?

What do you mean?

I'll stay like this for a while.

Stay like that at home.

I'm too scared of Hye Won and my mum.

My mum...

wants Hye Won and Doh Woo to break up,

so I can get together with him.

She thinks it's so simple.

Poor Mum.

I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

This is for you.

- What is it? - A gift to celebrate your freedom.

Quitting isn't a milestone that deserves a gift.

We bought it because we wanted to.

All you have to do is accept it.

Can you give me your wrist?

Here.

Ta-da.

- It suits you. - This is such a drag.

It was so sudden and random.

I quit because it was time.

Even so.

Even after I quit, I couldn't figure out how I felt.

I couldn't understand why I felt indifferent.

Seeing you all makes me feel strange.

I hope you all remember...

what a great flight attendant I was.

What difference will that make?

Nothing.

I had tea with some mums from the neighbourhood.

I only knew them as so-and-so's mum.

Yesterday, they told me what they did.

It was upsetting.

"This is what happens."

"However hard you've worked,"

"your career becomes a memory that only you cherish."

Gosh, this is so depressing.

What got into you? You were never the sentimental type.

Aren't I allowed to be sentimental a few days after...

I quit my job?

We joined the airline in the same year...

but you quit before I did.

You played a part in this.

Eun Joo. You're drunk.

Soo Ah.

You know I like you a lot, right?

When I was down and out, you comforted me...

and praised me.

Everyone else saw me as a rival,

but you looked out for me.

I'm getting compliments...

only because it's my farewell party, but I like it.

How did you end up with a friend like that?

Me?

- "A friend like that?" - Yes.

A friend who has a fling with Soo Ah's husband.

Eun Joo.

- Eun Joo. - Joo Hyun said she saw you...

enter Captain Park's room but I didn't believe her.

Then I saw you leave his room.

Was that it?

Eun Joo. Mi Jin and Jin Seok...

are as close as I am with him.

They speak freely.

If he hadn't married me,

he could've married her instead.

That's how close the three of us are.

I wasn't there to see him in private.

I'd gotten a call from the office and we discussed it.

Is there a problem?

Oh, was that it?

So it was about work.

Eun Joo. That was it. Leave it.

Sang Hyup, she's drunk. Take her outside.

Okay.

Let's go, Eun Joo.

I apologise.

Not for jumping to conclusions,

but for ruining your farewell party.

Thanks for everything.

Let's go.

- I have plans. - Me, too.

What did you talk about?

You should've been more careful.

You're right.

It must've been urgent if I went to his room.

Why did you say I used to know Jin Seok?

I don't know.

We were friends. You can't not know him.

I can't.

There's no such thing as a secret.

Who'd have thought that...

the wife of the man you're seeing...

would shoot daggers at me?

I met her on the plane.

The wife of Suh Doh Woo, the man you're seeing...

Suh...

Doh... Woo.

(DAD, I FLY TO SEOUL TOMORROW.)

This is...

the day before her accident.

Dad, I fly to Seoul tomorrow.

Mum isn't pleased, but I want to be there for Grandma.

Think of your grandmother who can't wait to see you.

Will you come or not?

Sorry, Dad.

I'll be there for her next birthday. I promise.

Dad, I don't believe what Mum said,

but if you really are trying to avoid me,

then you can send a short reply.

Say, "I'm fine." That's all I need.

Whether it takes 1 year or 2, I'll wait for your reply.

Were they in touch all along?

Dad, are you not in Singapore?

I thought I'd be able to meet you here.

Merry Christmas in the middle of summer. Write soon.

This was last winter.

Singapore?

Dad, I found a place you can work.

He's a great potter.

You don't have to travel any more.

Here's the time and address.

(I FOUND YOU A JOB!)

(OKAY, EUN WOO. I MISS YOU, TOO. SEE YOU ON SATURDAY.)

(I LOVE YOU. FROM DAD)

Dad loves sceneries like this.

She doesn't even know him.

He left as soon as she was born.

He's not worth telling her if he's dead or alive.

About Mum...

Don't believe a word she says.

Hello.

I know you won't.

Just trust what I say.

Who is she?

I don't believe anything she says about you.

I know what you're like.

I don't believe her.

I'm doing as you said.

I'm a good girl and everyone loves me.

Dad.

I like Daddy Doh Woo the most, next to you.

I know he won't mind.

Is it really you?

That's what you and he have in common.

You're both very understanding.

Why are you here?

See you later.

Daddy Doh Woo drove me to the field today.

I waited. Why aren't you here?

I waited for you in the field all day.

You didn't show up today,

but I'll keep waiting.

Whatever Mum tells me,

I know you didn't abandon me.

Whether it takes 10 years or 100,

I'll wait for you every Saturday.

It's good to miss something.

You just have to wait.

You wait and wait and wait.

You will meet. You have hope.

I met her on the plane.

The wife of Suh Doh Woo.

You said you'd end it if I found out who you're seeing.

Suh Doh Woo.

Bingo.

Right?

Now, end it.

Who...

are you?

(ON THE WAY TO THE AIRPORT)

Just hearing about him through others...

makes me happy and excited.

We...

can never break up.

Do you have the right to blame me?

Do you have the right to slap me?

Can you be someone who makes me happy with a text?

I can.

You gave me a lot of love.

I hope you know that.
