Original subtitles

Why haven't you said anything all this time?

Because

I'm your brother.

You should've at least not made me hate you.

You should've at least been someone I could lean on.

I'm sorry.

The only way to protect you from him

was to live the life that he wanted.

It's why I didn't have the time to check in on you

or to acknowledge your hardship.

Why did you live that way?

What was it all for?

We're all given a role in life.

I devoted myself

to the life I chose, and will keep doing so.

This is my calling

which has nothing to do with you.

You go ahead and live yourself.

Freely.

It's a freedom that's the fruit of your sacrifice.

I'm fine with it.

Let me take you home.

Let's go.

Thank you...

for finally telling me the truth.

Youth Villa

Father

Youth Villa

Good night.

Again, I'm filled with hope.

It might lead to another heartache,

but it's what I can only do.

Professor,

why do we fall in love?

I'd rather spare myself from the pain.

Exhausting your emotions on love?

You're going to say it's useless, right?

No.

It's better to do so at your age.

Even at this age, heartaches burn.

I know it does.

But when you're older?

It's just worse.

You can't unconditionally follow your heart

and there's a lot to consider.

That includes other people, so it's worse.

There's no age limit to dating.

Even my grandma has a boyfriend.

She's one admirable woman.

I hope Jun's not in any kind of trouble.

I'm sure he'll be fine.

So Professor.

Go ahead, Soo-hyun.

The gukbap that day was delicious.

I appreciate your advice too.

It's been a huge help.

Are things better for you now?

I wanted to ask, but I didn't want to pressure you.

I received help

from a friend.

Good job.

So, where's Jun?

Something urgent came up, so he left.

He left?

But I was thinking about inviting Professor Yeo.

Professor Yeo Jun-wan?

It'll be nice to get to know each other.

I figured he'd come if his brother was here.

Why are you back?

I should sleep at home, right?

Did everyone make it back too?

Yes.

I guess I ruined it for everyone.

We had enough fun anyway.

That only makes me feel worse.

Did the talk go well?

Are you actually asking me first?

I'm touched.

Over there.

I'd like to check it out.

Sure, let's do that.

As a boy, I told everyone I was an only child.

Why?

Because I hated my brother.

It was of no use though.

Despite the big age gap,

people still knew me as Yeo Jun-wan's little brother.

I was always compared to the model student.

I saw a brother that other people saw,

but that wasn't the real him.

Then one day, he said this.

That I didn't have a family.

No brother and no parents.

I don't know why he said that

or what went through his mind

as he lived on.

I just don't get it.

At first,

I didn't get you at all either.

Likewise.

Why was spending money so easy for you?

Why were you flashing fake smiles at people?

And why did you keep bothering me?

Meanwhile, you were prickly,

had only complaints about the world,

and were annoyed by me when others loved me.

I was annoyed by you.

Some things about you still get on my nerves.

Likewise.

Maybe there will come a day

when you and your brother will reminisce about your past

like we're doing right now.

Will that day

easily come?

Yes.

I'm sure it will.

So, what about me annoys you?

Do you have all night?

What are they?

Just name three then.

You annoy me in a lot of ways too, you know.

Jun, how did your talk with your brother go?

What's going on?

Fold a finger if you like one of the ladies who are here now.

It's probably Mi-ju.

It's probably Young-ran.

Youth Villa

Soo-hyun,

wait for me. Let me come with you.

Give me five minutes though.

Is that really how you're leaving the house?

Why?

I see you didn't get much sleep last night.

Actually, I did.

Come over here.

- But I'm late. - Come on!

Darn, you're strong.

Follow me in here.

Frowning like that will only wrinkle your skin.

- Apply it on yourself. - I already have.

Trust me, will you?

Should I lend you a hand?

I'll do it.

- How do I use this? - Under the eyes.

That's it. Above the lips.

And your neck.

- Happy now? - Finally, you're glowing.

I'm leaving.

While you stay here, I'll iron out

your frown and personality.

Don't you dare use this without my permission!

I bet I made you worry.

Hardly.

Didn't you get much sleep?

I slept like a baby.

Why are you being aloof?

You won't even look at me.

You're blinding, that's why.

Jeez, what a line.

Are you all right?

Then we're good.

I suddenly feel like a puppy.

You don't have to say if—

I asked my brother what I wanted to,

- and he gave me an answer. - That's great.

The misunderstanding has been cleared too.

That's even better.

Is it though? I'm still not sure.

It is.

When you mentioned Professor Yeo,

your eyes held a softer gaze.

They were ice-cold before, you see.

I'm sure you're aware of a leader's role in an organization.

What's the most important quality

one must have to be a good leader though?

Who'd like to answer?

Guys, where's your grit?

Confidently answering questions like this

will help you do well in job interviews.

Unbelievable.

You, with the red pen.

- Sorry? - What do you think?

A good leader

understands their teammates and—

That's the most basic quality.

A true leader is someone who produces good results.

Then what do successful leaders have in common?

Good self-management.

Those who are successful invest a lot in themselves.

You with the red pen.

Yes?

What do you do in the name of self-management?

Self-management?

In my case,

I play basketball with friends at times.

Basketball. So to stay healthy.

- Yes. - What else?

- Is that all you do? - Yes.

I wake up at 4 a.m., do Pilates,

read, meditate,

and plan my day out in minutes.

I do so even when I'm a professor,

so I'm sure you're doing at least that much too.

Guys, this isn't a world you can navigate by living absentmindedly

without any self-management.

I'm sure this is something you can answer.

Who here has a role model they can look up to as a leader?

Jun, I didn't know you were in my class.

Well, your reputation speaks for itself,

so I sneaked in today even though I'm a freshman.

Is that okay?

That's commendable.

So tell me. Who is a role model for you?

In my case,

it's Soo-hyun.

Nam Soo-hyun?

What about him made you think that way?

He doesn't lean on others

nor does he care about being popular.

He couldn't care less about

what others think about him.

How can that alone make him a good leader though?

He's the same inside and out,

he tries to keep his words at all times,

and he's responsible.

His qualities make others

want to depend on him.

And here I thought you only got good grades.

Soo-hyun.

I'm seeing you in a new light.

You two. What is it that you want from me?

- I'm just fond of you. - Me too.

Could you keep the fondness between you and keep me out of it?

Hey, Mom. You know how I said

that I'd like to transfer schools.

Should I give it a try while I can?

It's something I've been talking about.

I thought it was too late,

but I figured I should at least try to leave no regrets.

- Do it. - No way. I can't!

There's no way I'm doing it.

Jun.

We're good, right?

Oh Chun-guk, this darn jerk! What is wrong with him?

He has crossed the line big time!

I was against him calling your girlfriend.

Don't think we're just as bad.

Are you cutting ties with him?

- You guys were close. - Not me.

Besides, we're the ones who told Young-ran.

- And she— - She's younger than you, remember?

She treated us to makgeolli, you know.

Besides, one should be rewarded for notifying authorities.

The drinks must've been good.

We almost got tied with Chun-guk.

- Traitor. - And you're not?

Aren't we being too obvious?

That's exactly how I want to be.

So that everyone knows we're a couple.

All right. Before we begin today's class,

I'd like to ask you all a question.

What assignments do you find it hardest to do?

I'm thinking about

considering your answers for next semester's assignments.

- Team projects! - Team projects!

Why do you hate team projects?

Isn't it better to work in a group?

I hate it.

After team projects, I found myself hating people more.

And now I believe that we were born evil.

Right. That's too bad then.

In that case, let me give you another simple assignment.

Write about how you felt after the recent team project.

Fill an entire A4 page in font size ten.

You can't live this world on your own.

I'm sure you've learned something by working in a team

and cooperating.

Let's begin today's class then.

Mi-ju?

Soo-hyun,

can you spare me some time?

Well...

Sure.

- So... - Yes?

Is Young-ran the one you like?

Then I'll give up on you.

I guess that's funny to say

since I was already rejected by you,

but I thought you'd be more at ease

if I made myself clear.

- Right. - By the way,

aren't you curious as to why I was attracted

to you?

I am.

I couldn't ask because I had no right to.

I first saw you at the convenience store

on a particularly

bad day for me.

I dropped the beer can and it busted.

I had to pick it back up,

clean up, and pay for it,

but I was in such a daze that I got locked in place

like a fool.

But then you came up to me and started cleaning up

as if it was just another day.

Are you going to drink that?

At any given time, if I had someone like you by my side,

I knew I'd be able

to get past anything.

Nonchalantly but with affection. You seemed like a solid tree

who'd take my hand and guide me the way.

You're also a handsome tree.

I don't regret it though.

For the first time in my life, I tried my best.

Even if I travel back in time,

I'd have fallen for you,

developed a crush on you,

and told you how I felt.

I'm sorry...

for not being able

to give you anything.

Please accept this.

I can't keep it nor throw it away.

It's my drawing of you. Didn't I do a good job?

Thank you for appearing in my life

so that I got the chance

to have a crush on you.

Ads

I said I'd walk you home.

For some reason, I want to be the one to walk you home today.

I'm fine though.

I have had the wrong idea about my brother for a long time.

I thought that he beat me.

That he hated me.

I've always craved love, you see.

From my parents and my brother.

I told myself to give up.

To suffer the pain and move on.

But hope washed over me.

So what's why.

What do you mean?

What you said before

about me and Chan-ki.

I figured you had a crush on someone too.

I guess there was no alternative.

Because we can't easily find someone

that will fish us out from this fiery pit

where we find ourselves craving for love.

It is unrequited love.

You must've felt pity toward me

since our situations were similar.

That too,

but I mostly didn't like you being hurt by him.

I wonder why when I was only your senior back then.

Beats me. Why did I hate it so much

when we weren't even friends?

Gosh, for how long have you had feelings for me?

Just a second.

Who's she?

- What brings you by? - Am I not allowed here?

Follow me.

I need to head inside.

Is she your mother?

Aren't you coming?

These aren't yours.

Where did you get these rags?

Leave them.

Don't tell me that the girl is your girlfriend.

I told you to watch who you engage with.

- Don't meet just anyone. - Why are you here?

Must I have a reason to be here?

It's not like you paid for this place!

You only come to me when things are bad for you.

- What? - To yell

and curse at me.

I see you've become much talkative.

That's right. I've changed, Mother.

So don't come by unannounced like this.

Do you think I'm here to see you?

I can't reach Jun-wan.

This isn't like him at all.

He always picks up when I call.

Should I call him for you?

Does he take your calls? Have you seen him?

What did you say that made him ignore my calls?

Mom, please get a grip on yourself.

Leave him be, will you?

Mom?

Mom, what's all this?

It's nothing.

Please call me the moment you hear from Jun-wan.

Does Dad beat you too?

Are you being abused as well?

What... What are you talking about?

Mom?

Others might hear you. Please keep your voice down.

What others?

How could you have kept this hidden?

When we lived in the same house?

Move.

Yeo Jun-wan

Yeo Jun-wan

Hey, Jun.

Mom came by.

Mother? Why?

Are you going to leave her there?

You knew, didn't you?

I've been telling her for many years

to leave Father.

This is the life she chose.

If Mom had been less miserable,

would I have been happier?

- Jun-wan. - Yes, Jun?

I still don't think

I can forgive Mom though.

Are you going to sleep?

Why?

- I'd like a consultation. - How much will you pay?

This won't cause indigestion.

How much is it?

Pricier than 10,000 won.

But less than a million won, right?

It's not?

It is. It's 999,000 won.

Are you making fun of me?

What do you want advice on?

Fathers.

I want to hear about yours.

But you're the one who wanted to talk.

My dad was a hero.

A hero who couldn't protect his own family.

Could a hero to many

rarely be a hero to his own family?

He was a righteous man many respected,

but it only led me to poverty.

No.

- What do you mean? - It's not easy to be as strong as you.

I'm sure you got that from your father.

Is that so?

I wouldn't have minded if I had to bear it all alone,

but my little brother too

couldn't do all he wanted.

That hurts the most.

Criminal Law Case Studies

Mom already knows.

Say what you want, but I've made up my mind.

I'm moving into a gosiwon next month.

- Let's go. - I quit studying for the police academy.

I came to tell you that.

How can I just sit and study,

when I know you're living like this?

What about your father?

My father...

physically abuses his family.

Members of my family shed blood trying to cover up that fact,

but I let someone else know.

It must've been hard for you.

Not me.

It was my brother.

He must've had it worse.

But I was completely in the dark

and only whined about my pain.

Soo-hyun.

Yes?

What do I do?

The third son of Kisung Group is causing such a ruckus.

See? They failed to keep their son in check

and now their company has a bad image.

How could someone run a company

when they can't even take care of their son?

Sir...

- I wasn't sure if I should tell you. - What?

Your second son's video was uploaded on the school website

and it seems like it has spread.

What? What video?

Why are you telling me that now? Show it to me right now!

Yes, sir.

Is this it?

That's impossible.

Keep a close eye on Jun.

Report back to me if anything happens.

Where are we going?

Hey.

- Hey. - I said it wrong.

I'll never get bored of it.

- I know, right? - Let's go make some.

No! Never!

What a crappy dream.

That's my spot.

Professor Song.

Did you have a nightmare?

Thank you.

Professor.

Can I ask you something?

To me?

I'm not Professor Park.

It seems like the guy who I liked for a very long time

likes a friend of mine.

So, what are you doing here?

Now's not the time to take a nap.

You should go tell him how you feel.

I'm not sure if it'll do any good.

They'll live their lives

and you have to live yours.

Do you want to remain as someone who hides their feelings

or as someone who bravely confessed their feelings?

You have to take charge of your own life.

Did you ever confess to someone?

No.

- If you can go back to the past... - I can't.

That's why I'm telling you this.

Life is all about timing.

Do you want to remain as someone who hides their feelings

or as someone who bravely confessed their feelings?

You have to take charge of your own life.

Hey, Nam Soo-hyun!

Wang Young-ran.

Are you entering a race?

I missed you.

- What? - I ran here because I missed you.

- Oh, I see... - Well...

Am I not allowed to miss you?

You are.

Then I'll just miss you as much as I want.

Did something happen?

No. Want to race?

Loser buys coffee.

Hey, wait! How much does a coffee cost?

How much is it?

Why are we racing?

When you're in one-sided love,

you're not allowed to love that person with all your heart,

let alone be loved by that person.

For how long am I supposed to continue this race?

Is there a finish line?

Hey! Let me know how much...

Did something happen?

Were you watching me?

How do you keep showing up when I'm feeling down?

Well, my hunch is never wrong.

Anyway, did Yeo Jun make you cry again?

No, it's not like that.

Then?

I think

my mom called me.

Really?

Are you sure it's her number?

Yes.

I thought I forgot about her already.

You tried to forget her, but your brain remembers.

Just like how I can't forget you.

What?

Nothing. Why didn't you answer her call?

Why should I?

She's the one who never picked up my calls.

So why do I have to?

You're upset, right?

If you're upset, that means you still care about her.

And he seems a bit upset.

I'll get going.

I'm also upset.

I said I wanted to get to know you,

but I never got to tell you about me.

When I was eight,

my parents got a divorce,

and my mom left.

I see...

I got a call today.

I recognized her number

right away.

I'm sure she had her reasons.

But I don't want to talk to her.

I guess I want her to hurt as much as I did.

I'm awful, right?

I would've been worse.

Even when I'm happy,

I told myself that it will never last.

A part of my heart will never be filled.

Even though I accepted it,

sometimes I was sad.

We can neither forgive

nor understand our parents.

Let's just forget about them and be happy.

As I'm happy now that I have you,

it made me look at my mom differently.

How so?

I felt bad for her.

I have you,

but my mom doesn't have anyone.

She'll be sad and lonely.

I wanted to show her

that I was living this perfect life without her.

But,

I was always missing something.

You're stupid.

- Stupid? - You're already perfect.

You're the only one who doesn't know that.

Let's go to my place.

What?

Why are you so surprised?

I'm not surprised at all!

I'll buy you meat.

I'm supposed to be careful of someone who buys me meat.

Are you going to buy me beef?

Yes.

Beef is a bit dangerous.

I thought you said it's dangerous.

Wait for me!

Welcome.

Come have a seat.

Yes, let's eat.

Just wait a moment.

I invited a special guest for you.

"A special guest"?

Yes.

It's...

Ta-da!

Now, let's...

Wait!

Isn't this prime ribeye?

How much was it?

It's okay. He said he bought it a while ago.

I bought this and marinated it a few days ago.

Don't worry.

This only cost half of the truffle.

Half of the truffle? Then it's...

So it was 150,000 won?

My stomach is already upset.

Sit down.

Myungil University

Professor Park.

Ms. Seol, what brings you

to my office?

Is Professor Song giving you a hard time or something?

No, not at all.

Is something bothering you?

How did you know I always have the best advice for you young people?

Can we go

grab a bite to eat?

More and more students want to go eat with me.

Ms. Seol, what do you like?

It's my treat.

No, please let me treat you.

I guess your situation is better now.

Yes.

Things will keep getting better.

Then if things get hard again,

you'll stop contacting me.

That's not true, So-bin.

There was nothing I could do for you,

so I felt bad.

You don't seem to be doing that much better. Why did you call me?

I missed you. That's why.

I know you didn't abandon me.

I know you had no choice but to leave.

I also know that Dad is at fault

and that you were the one who was hurt.

But every month,

I waited for that one phone call from you. Couldn't you have cared more?

I was afraid you'd hate me

because I didn't go with you.

"What if she forgets all about me?"

Every day, I was so anxious and worried.

I'm sorry, So-bin.

I was going to come for you, but...

No, I'm sorry.

I guess I care more about myself than you.

Because I feel so bad for the young So-bin

who missed you and quietly cried every night,

I can't bring myself to hold your hand.

How did it go with your mother?

Not well.

It's not easy.

I wanted to be cool about it

so I could just let it go and reconcile with her.

But when I saw her, I couldn't do it.

To tell you the truth, I was really happy to see her.

But that actually made me feel more miserable.

I could feel all the emotions I'd been bottling up.

You did well.

That's my line.

I copied your line.

When you said that to me, all of my stress melted away.

- So-bin. - Yes?

There is no need to rush.

Old wounds take time to heal.

I'll give them the love and care they need,

so let's wait until they can heal on their own.

2021 Business Administration

You seem to be in a good mood today.

Yes, Professor.

Do you need something?

No, I saw you and Professor Park having lunch together earlier.

What was that about?

Why are you asking?

What?

I saw you when Professor Park and I were on our way out after lunch.

Your face suddenly lit up.

What are you talking about?

I had lunch with him because I had a favor to ask.

You have nothing to worry about.

I'm not worried.

I just think you should be careful because people are watching.

I know you're always thinking about Professor Park.

You're being jealous, aren't you?

What are you saying?

Stop talking utter nonsense.

Just find the materials I asked for earlier and put them on my desk.

- Got it. - What's wrong with you?

Ms. Seol, you look like you have all the time in the world.

Where's the thing I asked for?

You asked me to find it today.

- So what? - Pardon?

Can I not expect you to get it to me the same day?

It'll take me at least two days.

I really can't finish it by today.

I'm sorry.

Then what about the material I asked for last time? Where is it?

I emailed it to you this morning.

You did?

Then you should have told me!

Why make me come all the way here and ask for it? You know how busy I am!

My goodness.

I hate wasting time. I get more things done in five minutes

than lazy people get done in five days.

Do you realize that?

I'm sorry, Professor.

Goodness.

You're "sorry"?

Why would you do something you must apologize for?

Find it now.

Okay.

She needed someone to take it out on.

Take it out on me all you want.

I won't be around for long.

- Your father sent me. - My dad?

There's no way you searched the entire campus to find me.

Have you been tailing me?

- Let's go. - I still have a class left.

Let's go.

Are you here to catch a rich runaway heir or something?

He's asking for you.

You know how he is.

I have no choice.

I have to go home.

Did something happen?

No, I suppose my dad misses me.

Okay, go.

I shouldn't be worried, right?

Professor, do you have some exciting plans for the day?

I'm just meeting someone. That's all.

I'm curious who it is.

Why isn't he picking up?

- By any chance... - Yes, Professor.

Can you reach Jun?

I guess you're meeting Jun today.

Yes, he used to ignore my calls,

but I don't know why he's not picking up now.

- Jun went home. - "Home"?

It was unexpected, so he probably didn't have a chance to call you.

We were supposed to meet by the gate after class.

It looked like he was going home to see his father.

Did Jun say he was going home to see his father?

No, it's not that...

Did someone take him?

Yes. He said Jun's father sent him.

- Mother, where are you? - Hi, Jun-wan.

- Are you home now? - Why didn't you answer my call?

Did Dad call Jun home?

- Jun? - You didn't know?

I know nothing about it. I stepped out to take care of something.

Head home immediately. I'm on my way too.

Okay, Jun-wan.

Hurry.

Listen carefully.

If you hurt Jun again,

I will kill you all.

Jun-wan.

What are you talking about?

You know I can do anything I set my mind to.

I'll do everything you say, so just don't make Jun

go through what you did to me.

Everything you did is recorded here.

- How could you... - As of this moment,

I'm your only son, and it'll be this way until you die.

Jun...

As of today, he has no family.

What have you been up to?

Dad, what is this about?

I told you to stay away from trouble.

Did I cause trouble?

Your brother teaches at your school,

so I told you to be careful.

I'd never do anything to embarrass him. I don't even say hi to him.

It's my fault for believing you.

Hey.

Are you trying to embarrass me now, on top of Jun-wan?

Jun-wan turned down the offer from the top university

and chose your school because of you.

You shouldn't have been born.

You're so inept, full of flaws...

- Dad. - I don't want to hear it.

Move back home.

I don't want to.

You don't want to?

No, I don't want to.

I don't want to move back here.

I see that you've learned to talk back to your father.

What? You don't want to move back here?

Say that again.

You don't want to do it?

Why are you just standing there? Come in.

Come on.

At a Distance, Spring is Green

Whose money is this?

Do you earn money so you can have a reason to beat us?

I thought everything would be okay

if I kept you away from the family and handled Dad on my own.

I'm sorry. It only ended up hurting you more.

Every now and again, I realize

that clinging to you was the best thing I've done.

There's something I need to say in front of everyone.

So we'll be each other's stand-in?

- You should go on a date. - How do I do that?

Mind your own business. I wish you and So-bin all the best.

Why aren't you asking me how Jun is doing?

I'll miss him more if I start talking about him.
