(Episode 121)

Will he be okay now?

You came here every day to take care of him.

Your hard work must have paid off.

We'll need to observe him for a few days.

But he'll make a full recovery.

Thank you.

- Thank you. - We'll get going now.

Come closer.

I need to get going now.

He said you came to see me every day.

Are you suddenly feeling shy now that I'm awake?

Here. I'll let you look at me all you want.

Come closer.

I missed you.

How's Mi Ri Nae?

Thanks to you,

her surgery went well.

And she recovered nicely too.

So she's getting discharged tomorrow.

What a relief to hear that.

Mi Ri Nae...

is upset at me, right?

I even promised her that I would visit her after the surgery.

What if...

she won't even look at me?

Actually, you were the first person...

she asked to see when she woke up.

I told her that you were too busy.

But she said she missed you and continued to whine.

What took you so long to wake up?

You must have been quite busy in dreamland.

I was busy.

But...

I think it was a happy dream.

Mi Ri Nae called me "Dad" and jumped into my arms.

And you were my wife.

You said you wanted to go on a picnic.

Was that why?

I didn't want...

to wake up.

You must've been happy.

Yeong I.

What's going on?

I found it odd that...

you kept leaving to go somewhere, so I followed you.

What happened? Why is he in the hospital?

Actually,

the donor for Mi Ri Nae's bone marrow...

is Kyung Jun.

When he got the cornea transplant,

the anesthesia caused an allergic shock.

So the donation was pretty risky.

But despite knowing the risk,

he said he would do the surgery...

as soon as he found out he was a match.

But because of the shock, he was unconscious.

Then he just woke up.

He could've died.

Given his history,

the doctor must have tried to stop him.

I bet his parents were against it too.

I'm so relieved that he's awake now.

It's impossible for you to stay away from him.

What a bond you guys have.

No one in your family was a match.

How come he was a match for Mi Ri Nae?

The bond between you two is something else.

Eun Jin, don't say stuff like that.

What?

This is more than just a bond. They are meant to be together.

They can try to push each other away,

but fate brings them together.

Hey.

Even if the elders don't approve,

you three should go off somewhere and live together.

Hey, he risked his life to donate his bone marrow for her.

Have you ever heard of or seen such a selfless act of love?

No man in the world would do that!

Are you going to let him slip away?

Kyung Jun.

You brat.

You had me worried sick!

Are you all right?

Your doctor said you were out of the woods.

Yes.

It feels like I had a very long nap.

Sorry, Grandpa. Dad.

Don't apologize.

I'm glad you're okay.

If you cause trouble like this again, I won't let it slide!

I had no doubt that you would wake up.

Thank you.

What about Se Jun?

He must've been worried...

since he hasn't seen or heard from me.

He's been worried after he found out.

I'll tell him you woke up when I visit him.

Baby Chick came to check on you day and night.

She took very good care of you.

She brought you back. It was all her.

Manage the foundation?

So you want to take the job?

But you know the history...

between the chairman and your family.

When the rest of the family finds out, they'll be disappointed.

Well, I'm happy that you want to go back to work.

I've been thinking.

But this is what I want to do with my life.

I want to take this chance.

Come to think of it,

he offered the job to me given the history with my family.

He must have given me an important position like that...

for a reason.

Right. But...

So how much will he pay you?

I don't know.

But I won't take any money.

I have enough money saved up.

If we're frugal, we won't have to worry about feeding ourselves.

We need more than just food!

You were a brand manager of a bank!

How can you be that naive? That's nonsense!

It's a meaningful position. And it's for a good cause.

It's not about money.

So I need your support too.

I've made up my mind.

You want my support?

So are you telling me you'll give me only half of the living expenses?

And I have to endure the cutback to be supportive?

No. A quarter.

I realized a lot of things after listening to him.

We should live our life while practicing sharing too.

I don't mind working for free.

Even if I get paid,

I will donate half of the paycheck.

After meeting the chairman,

something must've happened to your brain.

You're losing it.

Yes, something indeed happened to my brain.

It's gotten clear now.

After meeting the chairman,

I was enlightened about life and how one ought to live his life.

So you should start earning money to support yourself now.

If you can't,

I don't mind moving to a smaller house.

It's too big for three people.

Honey. Mr. Kim Chang Yi.

I'm home.

You're home early.

Yes. I came home after working outside the office.

You guys look quite affectionate now.

Affectionate, my foot.

Hey, do you know what your dad said?

I decided to start working.

Really? That's great!

Money isn't important.

I just wanted to see you work with a sense of dedication again.

No one gets me in this house!

Why are you both saying money isn't important?

I'll come out after I change.

Tell me what your new job is.

Yes, Yeong I.

Hae Mi. Kyung Jun woke up.

Really?

I'm so relieved!

I can finally stop worrying now.

See? I told you.

I knew he wouldn't stay asleep long...

because he would miss you too much.

Anyway, you must have been worried.

You should get some sleep tonight.

Thanks for the update.

Okay.

I should tell him Kyung Jun woke up.

He must have been worried.

For the past few days,

Yeong I often left the room and was gone for a long time.

So I followed her today.

And then...

Mr. Jang was lying in the room in a hospital gown.

- What? - Gosh.

Is he injured?

The donor who gave the bone marrow to Mi Ri Nae...

was Jang Kyung Jun.

He was unconscious for a few days due to an allergic shock.

So he was in the ICU.

Afterward, they moved him to a regular room.

Luckily, he woke up today.

But it could've been much worse.

Gosh. That's why he didn't come home for a few days.

No wonder the chairman looked so anxious.

I didn't know that.

Think about the possibility.

Mom.

I told Yeong I to be with him again.

It's so heartbreaking to see them like that.

To be honest, I just want them...

to be happy without thinking about anyone else.

No!

What are you talking about?

Think about it carefully.

I can't be the only one who knows about this.

I'll tell my family too.

Yeong I said not to say anything.

She said If your family found out,

they would feel uncomfortable or pressured.

Pressured? Of course, they should feel some pressure!

My family should learn to be grateful!

The man who saved Mi Ri Nae's life is in the same hospital.

You want me to pretend as if I don't know?

Shouldn't we give him a coupon...

for a lifetime's worth of beef bone soup?

Gosh. Wait.

- Gosh. - Hey.

He only lives in that moment.

He never thinks about anything seriously.

Right.

He's a nice guy. He eats a lot too.

What?

Unconscious?

Yes. He woke up today.

Gosh. He never came to visit when Mi Ri Nae was waiting for him.

That was why.

Are you sure? How did you find out?

Eun Jin went to the hospital and heard it from Yeong I.

It's really true.

Shouldn't we all visit him to thank him?

He saved Mi Ri Nae's life.

He knew that his life was in danger.

Why did he of all people have the matching bone marrow?

Gosh. This bond never seems to go away.

The bond must be fated to remain forever.

I do hate his family.

But I am grateful.

Perhaps, you and Chang Il should visit him.

He almost died trying to save Mi Ri Nae.

People say the donor...

isn't supposed to know who the recipient is, Mother.

I'll pretend I didn't hear this.

Don't bring this up again.

We know nothing about this.

Gosh.

Your great-granddaughter's surgery...

went well.

She is a blessed one.

But you see,

Kyung Jun is the one who saved her.

What a crazy bond this is.

Our family keeps getting mixed up...

with our enemy's family.

He risked his own life...

to proceed with that difficult surgery.

I'm becoming more inclined to accept him.

But the thought of sending Mi Ri Nae to his family...

makes me go silent.

What should I do?

Hey.

Gosh, what's there to think about?

Just think about my daughter and Mi Ri Nae's future.

You and I both lost our husbands.

We led lonely lives, working at this restaurant.

Life is simple.

When things are tough, you lean on someone.

When you're happy, you smile.

Living the rest of your life with a man who adores you...

is a blessing, and that is life. Isn't it?

Please send them to him, and don't even think about it again.

That's all I want.

I should, right?

You're right.

Yes, you're right.

(Evergreen University Hospital)

Mi Ri Nae.

Wait. What?

I didn't want to scare Mi Ri Nae. So I changed.

By the way, Mi Ri Nae seems a bit upset at me.

Mi Ri Nae.

Aren't you going to say hello? You kept asking for him.

When did I do that?

Mr. Kyung Jun didn't miss me.

He didn't come to see me after my surgery.

I hate him.

How could you say that? I told you he was busy.

Since Mi Ri Nae hates me,

I should just go.

Mr. Kyung Jun, don't go!

Will you forgive me?

Thank you.

Thank you so much...

for getting the surgery and becoming healthy again.

Thank you.

Mr. Kyung Jun, I'm getting discharged today.

I'm not sick anymore.

Can you play games with me?

Shall we?

I can take her out for a while, right?

Yes. But don't say out for too long.

Yes! I'm so excited.

What are you doing?

Grandma.

Goodness. There you are, Mi Ri Nae.

Hello.

I said you didn't have to come.

I was going to bring her home anyway.

I knew this would happen. That's why I'm here.

You two must be having a blast.

It's not that.

Can I talk to you for a second?

- Yes, Mother. - Stop calling me that.

Just stop it.

I'll talk to her. You should go.

It's okay.

Mi Ri Nae, stay with your mother.

I heard what you did.

You almost died.

By the way, is it okay for you to be here?

What happened to your hospital gown? You're all dressed up.

Well...

I wanted to make a good impression on Mi Ri Nae.

Anyway, thank you for saving Mi Ri Nae.

I'm just grateful that...

I could be the donor.

I was really happy for her.

I am grateful for what you did,

but it can't be more than that.

I tried to be understanding. But I just cannot send...

my granddaughter to you.

She's my son's daughter. I just can't do that to him.

If you wanted to use this chance to start over with Yeong I, forget it.

And stop visiting Mi Ri Nae.

She's deeply attached to you. How will she accept not seeing you?

You must think I'm too cruel.

But ask anyone.

No one wants to send their child to their enemy's family.

That's just absurd.

So you need to forget about Yeong I and Mi Ri Nae...

and move on.

I will always be indebted to you.

I am...

greedy, aren't I?

I'm sorry.

I knew I shouldn't be in her life,

but I couldn't stop caring about Mi Ri Nae.

I'm curious about how she'll look when she goes to elementary school.

I also want to see her...

run on a sports day at school now that she's healthy.

Going to middle school and high school...

I even want to see her when she's come of age.

I dare imagine her future in my head.

"At that moment,"

"how will Yeong I look?"

"How big will her smile..."

"be?"

I wonder if there are times she gets upset and cries.

"Relying on someone..."

"can make things better."

"But..."

"I can't be that guy."

Whenever these thoughts crept up,

my heart sank.

The more I wonder about her future and miss her,

I feel sorrier.

And my heart breaks.

I'm sorry...

for being so greedy.

I'm sorry.

I know too well that...

we can't be together.

As you said,

I will try.

Well,

can I briefly say goodbye to Yeong I before I go?

I guess you can.

Good morning.

Yes, it is a good morning indeed.

It's hot. So drink it slowly.

It's hot. So drink it slowly.

Kyung Jun, you don't know...

when you're getting discharged, right?

I can probably...

get discharged before the trial.

Right. The trial is around the corner.

I've been so busy with Mi Ri Nae that I forgot.

I think I've done...

everything I can.

Stay healthy with Mi Ri Nae,

and take care.

I don't want to shake your hand.

Don't be like that. Shake my hand.

You promised to ride a bicycle,

go to the beach,

and stargaze with Mi Ri Nae.

I'm sorry for not keeping...

my promises.

You can't do this.

I still need you.

You're not done yet.

Keep your promises.

Keep all of them and then leave.

I'll go now.

As we have heard previously...

regarding the case,

based on the motive, the method, the result of the crime,

and the circumstance after the crime,

the nature of the crime is considered quite heinous.

The bereaved family of the victim...

requested to punish the defendants severely.

Given these factors,

the defendants must face severe punishments.

With that said, we have considered...

all of the extenuating factors that led up to their crime,

the degree of their involvement,

their age, character, and conduct,

the court is ready to make a ruling.

Ruling.

Defendant Jang Se Jun will serve four years in prison...

for causing serious bodily injury.

Defendant Cha Yoon Hee...

will serve 18 years in prison for instigating murder.

Defendant Sim Won Sub...

will serve 18 years for murder.

(Presiding Judge)

(Defendant)

Gosh.

It's over now.

Good job hanging in there.

It is truly over now.

I thought they would be imprisoned for life.

This is upsetting, honey.

Wait.

What are you doing?

I wanted...

to apologize properly at least once.

Apologize?

I don't want to see your face. Just leave.

Go!

Honey.

We're here to see you get punished.

We're not here to listen to you.

There's nothing you could say to us now.

Get up now.

I am...

an awful...

and foolish mother.

I only cared about protecting what my son had...

and covering up for what my son did.

And I ended up committing a grave crime.

As much as I adored my son,

other mothers adored their sons too.

I failed to see that.

Of course, every child is precious to their mother.

How could you not know that?

I know that...

my sentence cannot make up...

for the pain of losing a child.

I committed an unspeakable crime even my life wouldn't be...

enough to make up for.

I am incredibly sorry.

Until the day I die,

I will reflect on my crime.

Do Jin.

Your murderer is finally apologizing.

How many years has it been?

My poor son.

Mother.

I'm sorry, Yeong I.

I know my apology came too late.

I won't dare ask you for your forgiveness.

I am...

truly...

sorry.

Let's go.

(The Love in Your Eyes)

I'm thinking of going to the US for a few years.

I want to leave.

Please let me go.

I want them to see each other again by all means.

But it shouldn't happen, right?

Let's get a divorce.

I can't be his mother...

for him to even think about seeing her again.

I know it's shameless of me, but I came to ask for a favor.
